We have studied 932 high school and professional institute students aged fifteen to eighteen in Madrid, of which 406 were males and 526 females. Blood pressure measurements were taken on all the individuals on three separate occasions. The recorded values are expressed in percentiles for age and sex. We have found lower diastolic blood pressure levels than those reported so far in the literature, in agreement with the values recorded by us in children between two and fourteen years old. The prevalence of hypertension in the population studied was 3%, higher in males than in females (4.67% and 1.61%, respectively). We assume the idea that the measurement of blood pressure in teenagers is mandatory because of the high prevalence of arterial hypertension in this age group.
我们对马德里932名年龄在15至18岁的高中生和职业院校学生进行了研究，其中406名是男性，526名是女性。对所有个体在三个不同时间测量了血压。记录的值以年龄和性别的百分位数表示。我们发现舒张压水平低于迄今文献报道的水平，这与我们在2至14岁儿童中记录的值一致。所研究人群中高血压的患病率为3%，男性高于女性（分别为4.67%和1.61%）。我们认为，由于该年龄组动脉高血压患病率高，对青少年进行血压测量是必要的。
