Since 1960, data have been collected on measured blood pressure for non-Hispanic whites and blacks. However, few data have been available measured blood pressure for Mexican Americans (1). Until the release of data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination III, Phase I (NHANES III), the only source of blood pressure data for most of the Mexican American population in the United States was the Hispanic Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (HHANES). Data on measured blood pressure for other Hispanic subgroups (i.e., Cuban Americans and Puerto Ricans) were available in HHANES but not in NHANES III. To identify trends in prevalence, awareness, treatment, and control of hypertension among Mexican Americans aged 18-74 years, HHANES (conducted during 1982-1984) and NHANES III (conducted during 1988-1991) were analyzed. This report summarizes the results of that analysis.
自1960年以来，一直在收集非西班牙裔白人和黑人的测量血压数据。然而，关于墨西哥裔美国人的测量血压数据却很少（1）。在《国家健康与营养检查第三次调查第一阶段》（NHANES III）发布数据之前，美国大多数墨西哥裔美国人血压数据的唯一来源是《西班牙裔健康与营养检查调查》（HHANES）。HHANES中有其他西班牙裔亚组（即古巴裔美国人和波多黎各裔美国人）的测量血压数据，但NHANES III中没有。为了确定18至74岁墨西哥裔美国人高血压患病率、知晓率、治疗率和控制率的趋势，对HHANES（1982 - 1984年进行）和NHANES III（1988 - 1991年进行）进行了分析。本报告总结了该分析结果。
