摘要

背景:高血压是一个重大的全球公共健康问题,由于银行业的工作环境,其独特的风险因素影响着银行业的从业人员。本研究旨在确定高血压在银行职员中的发病率,并找出导致高血压的具体风险因素:对 250 名银行职员进行了横断面调查,采用了预先测试过的结构式问卷。记录了各种测量数据,包括体重指数(BMI)、血压、血脂曲线参数和心血管事件。数据使用 SPSS 软件进行分析。分类变量以频率和百分比表示。采用二元逻辑回归法确定高血压的独立预测因素(P < 0.05):研究参与者的平均年龄为(37.56±8.98)岁,54.5%为女性。大多数人(98.8%)受过高等教育,94.7%居住在城市地区。高血压患病率为 33.3%。体重指数越高,患高血压的几率越大。体重指数每增加一个单位,患高血压的几率就会增加约 1.98 倍。曾被诊断为高血压的参与者、有高血压家族史的参与者、吸烟者和在餐桌上加盐的参与者中,高血压的发病率也明显更高(P < 0.05):高血压发病率之高令人震惊,突出表明有必要采取有针对性的干预和健康促进措施。由于存在公认的风险因素,因此必须强调改变生活方式和工作场所健康计划的重要性,以减轻高血压的负担。

Prevalence of Hypertension, Its Risk Factors and 10-year Cardiovascular Disease Risk among Bank Employees in Lagos State, Nigeria.

Background: Hypertension is a significant global public health concern, with unique risk factors affecting those in the banking sector due to their work environment. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of hypertension among bank employees and identify specific contributing risk factors.

Materials and methods: A cross-sectional survey of 250 bank employees used pretested structured questionnaires. Various measurements, including body mass index (BMI), blood pressure, lipid profile parameters and cardiovascular events, were recorded. Data were analysed using SPSS software. Categorical variables are presented as frequencies and percentages. Binary logistic regression was employed to identify independent predictors of hypertension (P < 0.05).

Results: The study participants had a mean age of 37.56 ± 8.98, with 54.5% being female. The majority (98.8%) had tertiary education, and 94.7% resided in urban areas. The prevalence of hypertension was 33.3%. Higher BMI is significantly associated with increased odds of hypertension. For each unit increase in BMI, the odds of having hypertension are approximately 1.98 times higher. Hypertension was also significantly more prevalent in those participants with prior hypertension diagnosis, those with a family history of hypertension, smokers and those who added salt to their food on the table (P < 0.05).

Conclusion: The alarmingly high prevalence of hypertension underscores the need for targeted intervention and health promotion initiatives. With recognised risk factors, emphasis must be placed on the importance of lifestyle modifications and workplace wellness programmes to mitigate the burden of hypertension.
