Public Health Analysis: Hypertension
Public Health Analysis: Hypertension
The world population is increasing vastly. At the same, the world is experiencing an
increasing rate of diseases. Chronic diseases are among those that have created a critical
concern in today’s public health. A report by Kulkarni et al. (2020) documented that in 2020,
almost 30% of American adults had multiple chronic diseases. In the United States, chronic
2
diseases account for about 75% of healthcare spending (Raghupathi & Raghupathi, 2018).
One of the chronic diseases affecting public health is hypertension. It is described as
increased blood pressure. In the United States, for instance, the disease is noted to affect older
adults. It is reported that about 70% of adults aged more than 65 years have hypertension
(Buford, 2017). Worryingly, this number is predicted to continue rising. With its predicted
increasing rate, it shows that hypertension will remain a critical public health concern. As
such, it is important to report that the following is a public health analysis paper that mainly
focuses on the issues surrounding hypertension.
As mentioned above, the rate of individuals with hypertension is increasing rapidly.
While old age is considered the primary risk factor, today, reports of young people with
hypertension are also increasing. Several issues are raised in the direction of this issue. For
instance, numerous reports show that most people are adopting unhealthy lifestyles. In
addition, there is an increased number of obese individuals, which is among the risk factors
for developing hypertension. Another understudied issue affecting the increasing rate of
hypertension is the inadequate number of knowledgeable staff in advanced practice nursing to
provide effective management of hypertension. Relatedly, Benetos et al. (2019) highlight that
this has created insufficient follow-up measures in managing the disease.
The disease is also explored as one of Health People 2020’s objectives. The disease is
included in the heart disease and stroke topics. According to Health People 2020 (n.d.), new
measures are needed to monitor cardiovascular diseases, including hypertension. It is
important to report that the public health analysis of hypertension will majorly assist not only
the health sector but also communities that are burdened by this disease, including the
minorities in the United States.
Literature Review

As has been previously discussed, hypertension remains to be one of the significant
risk factors for severe morbidity and mortality across the globe. According to Basile and
Bloch (2021), hypertension treatment is recorded to be among the most common office visit
reasons. This assumption is supported by Van Bussel et al. (2019) in that most of the affected
are the elderly, who majorly rely on general practitioners for treatment. The following is a
literature review focusing on the statistics of hypertension, the causes and risk factors, and the
impact it has to the public health.
