Analysis of Disorders Resulting from High Blood Pressure in Children

Abstract

Background: hypertension is a severe increase in blood pressure with signs of target organ damage (mainly the brain, eyes, cardiovascular system, and kidneys). High blood pressure is rare in childhood, unlike in adulthood. Aim: This study aims to Analysis of disorders resulting from high blood pressure in children. Patients and Methods: An analytical study of disorders resulting from high blood pressure in children was recruited; 200 patients with high blood pressure were recruited and divided into two groups, including 100 boys and 100 girls. Where this study is applied in the different hospitals in Iraq, which extended from 1st October 2020 to 4th December 2021, this study included age, weight (kg), BP, SYMPTOMS, ETIOLOGIC (N, %), ATHEROSCLEROSIS. In addition, the 200 patients of the two groups, boys and girls, were examined in different hospitals in Iraq, and those who had HTN-C and Non-HTN-C. Estimation of outcomes of children patients was conducted based on R CORRELATION and SIG for both boys and girls. Results and Discussion: High blood pressure rates during infancy are more common than in childhood and stressful stages, as previously thought. High blood pressure is less common in children than in adults. Ages > 10. Most of the cases are boys and girls who are obese. Boys presented 14 (42.42%) and females 13 (43.33%) with a P-value of 0.0482. atherosclerosis was the most cause and effect on children, and it identified 39% for boys and 36% for girls with a p-value of 0.045. This study classified children into HTN-C and Non (HTN-C), where boys were more likely to have HTN-C than girls, as boys accounted for 76% HTN-C and Non (HTN-C) 24%, while females accounted for 65% HTN- C and 35% Non (HTN-C). The boy patients are more affected and harmful than the girl patients based on the r-correlation. It ranged for boys +0.73 and girls +0.53, but the Sig was 0.067 for boys and 0.055 for girls. Conclusion: that the factor of arterial hypertension affects children and adolescents in a large proportion compared to adults, which leads to damage to the liver, blood vessels, and blood vessels, as well as the heart. To follow up on this, this study discovered that high blood pressure may affect boys more than girls due to the previous factors, results, and causes.
