Background.
Blood pressure (BP) percentiles in childhood are assessed according to age, gender, and height.
Objective.
To create a simple BP/height ratio for both systolic BP (SBP) and diastolic BP (DBP).
To study the relationship between BP/height ratios and corresponding BP percentiles in children.
Methods.
We analyzed data on height and BP from 2006-2007 NHANES data.
BP percentiles were calculated for 3775 children.
Receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) curve analyses were performed to calculate sensitivity and specificity of BP/height ratios as diagnostic tests for elevated BP (>90%).
Correlation analysis was performed between BP percentiles and BP/height ratios.
Results.
The average age was 12.54 ± 2.67 years.
SBP/height and DBP/height ratios strongly correlated with SBP & DBP percentiles in both boys (P<0.001, R2=0.85, R2=0.86) and girls (P<0.001, R2=0.85, R2=0.90).
The cutoffs of SBP/height and DBP/height ratios in boys were ≥0.75 and ≥0.46, respectively; in girls the ratios were ≥0.75 and ≥0.48, respectively with sensitivity and specificity in range of 83–100%.
Conclusion.
BP/height ratios are simple with high sensitivity and specificity to detect elevated BP in children.
These ratios can be easily used in routine medical care of children.
