Abstract

Hypertension (HTN) is the most prevalent chronic non-infected disease and the greatest cause of adult premature mortality. Although in the past clinicians assumed that HTN in childhood and adolescents is uncommon, it is currently a significant public health issue and this narrative review aimed to assess the new finding regarding screening for HTN in Children and adolescents. Relevant English publications were extracted from Web of Science, PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar. As there are gaps regarding recommendations, guidelines, and screening for HTN in children and adolescents, this review tried to notice some important points. © 2023 The Author(s); Published by Society of Diabetic Nephropathy Prevention.
