Abstract

Background: High blood pressure is increasing rapidly around the world. In Vietnam, the prevalence of hypertension was 25%. Hyperuricemia is a risk factor in hypertensive patients. Objectives: To determine the concentration and the rate of increase in hypertensive patients and to find out some related factors to hyperuricemia in patients with primary hypertension. Materials and methods: cross-sectional descriptive study on primary hypertensive patients ≥40 years old who came for examination and treatment at Can Tho University of Medicine and Pharmacy Hospital from May to December 2020. Results: the average age of patients was 57.3 years old, accounting for the largest percentage of 42.5% was the age group ≥ 60 years old. The average of blood uric acid was 379.4 ± 125.4µmol/L in patients with primary hypertension. The proportion of patients with primary hypertension ≥40 years old with hyperuricemia was 43.3%. Patients with primary hypertension with metabolic syndrome had a higher rate of hyperuricemia than the group without metabolic syndrome with p <0.05. Conclusions: Acid uric was increasing in patients with primary hypertension and the patient with metabolic syndrome.
