"Aim: To examine prevalence and control of the blood pressure (BP) in the general population and in a subgroup of individuals with diabetes mellitus (DM) receiving primary care in the Czech Republic. Methods: A total of 150 primary care physicians examined and recorded the data of 15 consecutive patients (aged 45 years) each, irrespective of the visit purpose. A total of 2,211 patients were included; 403 of them had DM. Results: Of the patients screened, 78.4% had hypertension (BP 140 and/or 90 mm Hg) or were on antihypertensive therapy. In the DM patients, the prevalence of hypertension was higher than 91.3%. Hypertension control (target <130/<80 mm Hg) was only obtained in 18.4% of the general population and in 4.0% of the patients with hypertension and DM. Systolic BP control deteriorated significantly with age, with 140 mm Hg present in 75.9-93.1% in the age groups 65-74 years and 74 years as compared with 57.1-76.8% in the younger age groups (p = 0.02-0.008).
