چکیده
Background: Hypertension (HTN) is one of the most dangerous chronic diseases, and it is always considered one of the most common causes of mortality and disability all over the world. Methods: In this research, ۳۱۴۷ files of periodic examinations were studied. They were from various industries located in Iranian Kaveh Industrial Zone in ۲۰۱۸. The principal aim of this cross-sectional study was to elucidate the prevalence of HTN on a great number of people working in this industrial zone. The plan was to predict the exact effect of demographic factors, such as income, work experience, age, sex, BMI, etc. on blood pressure and, elucidate whether these variables make people vulnerable to HTN. Results: According to this research, around ۵% of the subjects were hypertensive. Results showed that there was a significant relationship between HTN demographic characteristics (p< ۰.۰۰۱). Fisher test demonstrated a significant relationship between age and HTN (p< ۰.۰۰۱). The lowest percentage of accidents belongs to workers with ۲۵-۳۰ years of experience. Chi-square test showed no significant relationship between hypertension, and marital status and sex. Based on linear regression analysis, it was shown that the factors identified in this study, ۲۳.۳% predict HTN (r: ۰.۲۳۳). Moreover, BMI factor is the most important predictive variable (B=۰.۱۴۸) among the variables. Conclusions: Dramatic role of predictive factors and bringing out the new strategy to deal with HTN in the industrial workplace should be seriously considered. It will improve health level of workers as they spend a lot of time in factories.کلیدواژه ها
