MONITORING OF INDICATORS OF THE CARDIOVASCULAR SYSTEM DURING RE HABILITATION

In the United States, about 75 million people suffer from hypertension. About 81% of these people are aware that they have hypertension, only 75% receive treatment and only 51% adequately control blood pressure. Among adults, hypertension is more common in African Americans (41%) than in Caucasians (28%) or Mexican Americans (28%), and African Americans have higher morbidity and mortality.
Blood pressure increases with age. Approximately two - thirds of people > 65 years of age suffer from hypertension, and people with normal blood pressure at the age of 55 have a 90% risk of developing hypertension. Since an increase in blood pressure becomes so common with age, it may seem harmless, but high blood pressure increases the risk of morbidity and mortality. Hypertension before pregnancy, or developing during pregnancy, has its own characteristics (see hypertension during pregnancy and preeclampsia and eclampsia).
Blood pressure in adults is classified as normal, elevated blood pressure, stage 1 (mild) or stage 2 hypertension (see the table Classification of Blood Pressure in Adults [Classification of Blood Pressure in Adults]). Normal blood pressure in infants and adolescents is much lower [4].
