Abstract
The aim of this study was to describe the prevalence, awareness and control of hypertension in the rural population of Perak and Selangor.
Methods
This was a population based cross-sectional study involving subjects in Kuala Selangor, Tanjung Karang and Bidor.

Results
A total of 761 people participated in this study. Of which 287 (37.8%) were males and 473 (62.2%) were females. Out of this, 271 (35.6%) were hypertensive. The study showed 36 (4.7%) subjects were not aware that they have hypertension. Only 76% of hypertensive subjects were on HPT medication. One hundred and five (51%) subjects were on monotherapy, 66 (32%) were on dual therapy, 27 (13.1%) on triple therapy, 8 (3.9%) were on more than 3 medications. 73 (26.9%) of the hypertensive subjects were not on any HPT medications having a SBP of 133.9 +/- 17 and DBP of 86.2 +/- 49.3. |
