A population study was carried out to determine the prevalence of hypertension among Saudis at primary health care level in the Asir region, Southwestern Saudi Arabia. All primary health care centers (PHCCs) were visited (238 PHCCs). Data were collected in relation to the updated Saudi population census for 1991. Chronic case registries were revised to identify existing cases of hypertension by age and sex till the end of 1991. Results showed that the prevalence of hypertension amounted to 2.4% among Saudis aged 45 years and more. Males and females aged 45 years and more living at high altitude had a significantly higher risk of developing hypertension (p < 0.05) compared to those living at sea level.
在沙特阿拉伯西南部阿西尔地区的初级卫生保健层面，开展了一项人群研究，以确定沙特人高血压的患病率。走访了所有初级卫生保健中心（238个初级卫生保健中心）。收集了与1991年沙特最新人口普查相关的数据。修订了慢性病登记册，以按年龄和性别确定截至1991年底的高血压现患病例。结果显示，45岁及以上沙特人的高血压患病率为2.4%。与生活在海平面的人相比，生活在高海拔地区的45岁及以上男性和女性患高血压的风险显著更高（p<0.05）。
