HYPERTENSION IS THE RISK FACTOR OF HEART DISEASE AMONG YOUNG PEOPLE

Introduction: Hypertension is associated with increased risks of stroke, ischemic heart disease, heart failure, kidney disease, and premature mortality. Aims and objectives: The basic aim of the study is to analyse the hypertension as the risk factor of heart disease among young people. Material and methods: This cross sectional study was conducted in Khyber teaching hospital during March 2019 to December 2019. The data was collected from 100 patients which was suffering from high blood pressure and any kind of heart issue. We collect the data in two sections, as first of all we collect some demographic information regarding age, sex, socio-economic status and history of blood pressure. Results: The data shows that there is a significant relationship between hypertension and CVD.

Conclusion: In conclusion, the current hypertension paradigm does not account for the continuous risk associated with elevated BP or the multifactorial nature of CVD, the primary consequence of elevated B
