METHOD FOR DETERMINING THE HIGH-RISK GROUP OF DEVELOPING PRIMARY ARTERIAL HYPERTENSION IN ADOLESCENT CHILDREN Russian patent published in 2020 - IPC A61B5/53 A61B5/205 

FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: invention refers to medicine, namely to pediatrics and pediatric cardiology, and can be used to determine individual risks of developing primary arterial hypertension in adolescents requiring primary prevention. Performing out-patient measurement of arterial pressure. If observing a normal average ambulatory arterial pressure and a body weight index within one standard deviation from the median value, bioimpedansometry with body fat admission is performed. A body fat weight index is determined by the formula: iBFW = BFW (kg)/(body length)². Adolescent children with body fat weight index 7.32 kg/m² and more are considered to be a high-risk group for developing AH requiring primary prevention.

EFFECT: method enables timely prevention of hypertension by determining a personalized risk of developing primary arterial hypertension in adolescent children with normal blood pressure and body weight index.
