The Significance of High Normal Blood Pressure for Children and Adolescents

doi:10.12114/j.issn.1007-9572.2022.0834

Abstract

Abstract:

At present, almost all the definitions of hypertension in pediatric hypertension guidelines issued by countries and organizations are based on blood pressure percentile of 95% (P₉₅). However, a large number of research data have shown that high normal blood pressure has a higher risk of progression to hypertension and cause similar target organ damage as hypertension. The review summarized the classification methods of blood pressure of children and adolescents in different countries and organizations, the prevalence of hypertension and high normal blood pressure, the rate of progression from high normal blood pressure to hypertension, and target organ damage caused by high normal blood pressure in children and adolescents, emphasizing that pediatricians should pay greater attention to the definition of high normal blood pressure and hypertension for children and adolescents.

Key words: Hypertension, Normal high blood pressure, Prehypertension, Children and adolescents, Target organ, Review

摘要：

目前大部分国家和组织发布的儿科高血压指南对高血压的定义基于健康儿童青少年血压序列的第95百分位（P₉₅）的血压值。然而，大量数据显示正常高值血压发展为高血压的风险更高且会造成和高血压类似的靶器官损害。本综述对不同国家和组织关于儿童青少年血压的分类方法、儿童青少年正常高值血压和高血压的患病率、正常高值血压向高血压的进展比例及正常高值血压造成的靶器官损害进行阐述，强调儿科医生未来应加强对儿童青少年正常高值血压和高血压定义的关注。
