This study was specifically in England, so probably not directly applicable to the US given the disparity in healthcare access. I’m inclined to agree that the percentage of adults in the US with undiagnosed high blood pressure is probably higher.
More than one-third of adults in England have high blood pressure and two-thirds of these are unaware of their diagnosis according to a new study of 1.4 million adults published in BMJ Public Health.
Yep, that’s why I specified the US, I did actually read the article before commenting. I think it’s worth mentioning because that’s a hot topic presently and it’s always good to remind people to get checked if they can.
