Associations of Body Composition with Hypertension in the Case of Geography and Health and Physical Education Teachers
This study investigates A Comparative study between blood pressure and body composition of Geography and Health and Physical education teachers of Ginbot 20 General Secondary and Preparatory School. Furthermore, it was not very clear how blood pressure was affected by such factors as body mass index, waist circumference, waist-to-hip ratio and percent body fat. To this end the hypotheses were formulated questionnaires and experimental testing. The descriptive research design with purposive sampling techniques was used. Thereafter, a sample of 107 subjects representing 14 (13%) of the targeted population was purposely selected for the study. The digital blood pressure monitor Measurement Machine (stethoscope), digital weight and height machine, Sphygmomanometer were used to collect data on blood pressure and body composition. Major findings of the study revealed that: Relationship between systolic and diastolic blood pressures was positively significant among the active and inactive subjects in this study; Relationship between systolic blood pressure and body mass index was positively significant among the Geography and Health and Physical Education teachers in this study; Relationship between diastolic blood pressure and body mass index was positively significant among physical exercise active and physical exercise inactive teachers .
