Key result

Community-based blood pressure screening identified prehypertension in 66.7% and hypertension in 19.3% of productive-age adults in Panunggul Village, leaving only 14.0% with normal blood pressure.

Why the study?

Prehypertension is generally asymptomatic but carries increased cardiovascular risk and potential progression to hypertension without early intervention, motivating efforts to detect and map its prevalence among productive-age residents in Panunggul Village.

Key Points

To detect early and map the prevalence of prehypertension among the productive age group in Panunggul Village.
Descriptive observational community screening conducted among N=57 residents aged 20–55 years selected through total sampling.
Blood pressure was measured twice in a seated position using a validated digital sphygmomanometer, followed by structured lifestyle risk education.
Prehypertension was identified in 66.7% of participants, whereas only 14.0% presented with normal blood pressure.
Degree 1 hypertension was found in 15.8% of participants, and degree 2 hypertension was observed in 3.5%.

Structured PICO

P

Population

57 productive-age adults (20-55 years) residing in rural Panunggul Village, Cirebon, Indonesia, excluding pregnant women and patients under intensive treatment for severe cardiovascular disease, assessed at a single cross-sectional screening.

E

Exposure

Community-based blood pressure screening (measured twice in a sitting position using a validated digital sphygmomanometer following AHA guidelines) followed by structured group and individual education on hypertension risk factor control.

O

Outcome

Prevalence and distribution of blood pressure status (normal [<120 and <80 mmHg], prehypertension [120–139 or 80–89 mmHg], stage 1 hypertension [140–159 or 90–99 mmHg], and stage 2 hypertension [≥160 or ≥100 mmHg]) at a single screening point.surrogate

Limitations

Small sample size (n=57) obtained through voluntary participation (self-selection bias), limiting generalizability to the entire village population
Blood pressure was measured on a single occasion, representing screening findings rather than a definitive clinical diagnosis
Did not collect data on body mass index, waist circumference, smoking habits, sodium intake, physical activity, or family history
Did not include pre- and post-education knowledge evaluations to assess the impact of the educational intervention
Limited sample size (n=57) obtained through voluntary participation (self-selection bias), limiting generalizability to the entire village population.
Blood pressure was measured on a single occasion, representing a screening finding rather than a definitive clinical diagnosis.
Lack of data collection on anthropometric and behavioral risk factors such as body mass index, waist circumference, smoking habits, sodium intake, physical activity, and family history.
No pre- and post-education evaluation to assess the impact of the educational intervention on participant knowledge.

Implication

This community screening revealed a high undetected burden of prehypertension (66.7%) and hypertension (19.3%) among productive-age rural adults in Indonesia, underscoring the urgent need to expand routine blood pressure screening and lifestyle education to younger working populations.

Abstract

Prehypertension is an intermediate stage that is generally asymptomatic, but has been associated with an increased cardiovascular risk and has the potential to develop into hypertension if not intervened early. This community service activity aims to detect early and map the prevalence of prehypertension in the productive age group in Panunggul Village. The activity is designed as a community-based health screening with a promotive and preventive approach using a descriptive observational design. A total of 57 residents aged 20–55 years participated through a total sampling technique on participants who met the inclusion criteria. Blood pressure measurement was carried out twice in a sitting position using a validated digital sphygmomanometer, followed by structured education on risk factor control. Data were analyzed descriptively in the form of frequency and percentage distributions. The results showed that 66.7% were in the prehypertension category, 15.8% were degree 1 hypertension, 3.5% were degree 2 hypertension, and only 14.0% had normal blood pressure. These findings show that the high burden of prehypertension has not been detected at the productive age, so routine screening, continuous education, and strengthening of village cadres-based PTM Posbindu are urgent needs

Wahidin et al. (2026) conducted a cross-sectional in Prehypertension and hypertension (n=57). Community-based blood pressure screening was evaluated on Prevalence of prehypertension (systolic blood pressure 120-139 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure 80-89 mmHg). Community-based blood pressure screening identified prehypertension in 66.7% and hypertension in 19.3% of productive-age adults in Panunggul Village, leaving only 14.0% with normal blood pressure.
