Hypertension Summary in Egypt
Burden of Hypertension (2017)
- Total population aged 15-69 years in 2017: Approximately 60.9 million adults.
- Hypertension prevalence: 29.2% among adults, equating to an estimated 17.8 million individuals.
- Key figures:
- Aware (diagnosed): 5.2 million (29.1% of population with hypertension).
- Under treatment: 2.4 million (13.3% of population with hypertension).
- Controlled: Not directly provided; derived from data indicating low control rates, with an overall estimated controlled rate around 27.6% of hypertension cases.
National Efforts
- National systems response (2019):
- Policies for reducing salt/sodium consumption and availability of essential hypertension medicines are generally available in primary healthcare.
- National targets for 2018-2022:
- 25% relative reduction in hypertension prevalence among adults by 2025 (baseline 29.5%).
- 30% relative reduction in mean salt intake for adults aged 18+ years by 2025 (baseline 8.9 g/day).
WHO Recommendations
- Address population-level hypertension through reducing modifiable risk factors, such as excessive salt consumption and physical inactivity, using technical packages like MPOWER, ACTIVE, SHAKE, REPLACE, and HEARTS.
- Improve hypertension control by increasing identification, treatment, and monitoring using evidence-based protocols.
- Track blood pressure control rates and population prevalence.
Definitions
- Aware (diagnosed): Individuals meeting hypertension criteria and informed of their condition.
- Under treatment: Those diagnosed with hypertension and receiving prescribed medication within the past two weeks.
- Controlled: Individuals with SBP <140 mmHg and DBP <90 mmHg (mean of 2nd and 3rd measurements) while under treatment.
Trends and Awareness
- Uncontrolled hypertension prevalence among adults decreased over time (2000–2025 projection), showing improvement.
- Age- and sex-specific data indicate higher rates in middle age, with males showing steeper increases.
Data Sources
- Data from the 2017 Egypt STEPS survey and national capacity assessments, aligned with WHO Global Health Observatory standards.
