【 摘 要 】

Hypertension is one of the biggest risk factors for cardiovascular disease and causes of death. WHO data shows that one-third of deaths in the world are caused by heart disease and blood vessels. Riskesdas showed an increased prevalence of hypertension in Indonesia at the age of 18 years in the population in Indonesia. This research aims to determine the prevalence of hypertension in adults. The design of this research is descriptive using secondary data. The sample is all hypertensive patients in 2017 in the work area of the Public Health Center VI in Kintamani subdistrict. The collected data is then analyzed descriptively. The results of this study showed that most hypertensive patients aged above 70 years (42%), followed by age 60-69 years by 34%, age 45-54 years by 10.5%, age 20-44 years of 7.1% and age 55-59 years by 6.9%. Based on the gender, the prevalence of hypertension in men is slightly higher than for women (men 50.7% and 49.3% women). The prevalence of hypertension in adults is still high, especially over the age of 70 years and only slightly higher in men than women.
