OBJECTIVE: The ways in which basal blood pressure levels are obtained may lead to different prevalence estimates. The objective of the study was to estimate the prevalence of high blood pressure among schoolchildren and to compare systolic and diastolic means obtained from three measurements of arterial pressure. METHODS: This was a cross-sectional study among seven to ten-year-old schoolchildren (N=601) from public and private schools in the urban area of Cuiabá, midwestern Brazil, in 2005. Three different blood pressure measurements at ten-minute intervals were made during a single visit. Children were considered to have high blood pressure when their systolic and/or diastolic blood pressure reached levels greater than or equal to the 95t...
