المستخلص : Hypertension is one of the significant health problems all over the world. In 1958, 253 primary school gys below 15 years in Khulais (Group I) had their blood pressure (HP), weight, height and pulse rate measured. Urine analysis and haemoglobin were also estimated. In 1989, similar study was conducted for 363 girls in the same age group in Bahra (Group 11). Determination of hypertension and its determinants among school girls was Our aim. Diastolic HP 95th percentile for age was noted in 3.95% and 3.3% in Group I and II. respectively, with general prevalence rate of 3.57%. Systolic HP 95th percentile for age was found to be 6.7% & 4.4% for Group land II, respectively. Analysis of other variables (weight, height and urine) was performed to determine the contribution of each independent variable to BP. Weight and height were found to be associated with DSP, while age was not correlated. These data suggest that HP standards for children should be based on weight and height rather than on age alone. The whole community must be mobilized and made aware of the problem in early childhood. We have to search for the best approach for prevention and control
