Childhood hypertension’s increasing prevalence has generally been linked to the obesity epidemic.
We observed that a significant proportion of children referred to our pediatric center with documented office hypertension are nonobese and have a history of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).
To define the extent of this anecdotal observation, we performed a retrospective analysis of ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) tests which in our center are routinely performed in newly referred children suspected of hypertension.
Twenty-one percent (48 of 227 new referrals) had a history of ADHD, and 81% of them were treated with psychostimulant medications at the time of their ABPM test.
Children in this group had a significantly lower average BMI z-score compared with the rest of the children (0.18 versus 0.75) and were significantly more likely to have abnormally elevated wake systolic loads on ABPM (38% versus 4%).
The overall proportion of children with any abnormality on ABPM was comparable in both groups (46% versus 40%).
Conclusion.
A significant proportion of children suspected of hypertension have ADHD which may be related to higher wake systolic BP values.
The prevalence of hypertension among children with ADHD will have to be determined in prospective studies.
