Determining characteristics regarding risk and high blood pressure (HBP) frequency in a group of 12 to 16 year-old students from the city of León, Mexico, according to two types of classification: the 7th Joint National Committee (JNC-7) and 4th report of the working group for diagnosis, evaluation and treatment of HBP in children and adolescents.This was an observational, descriptive cross-sectional study of 458 male students. HBP was determined according to international standards after parents and students' informed consent had been obtained and they answered a questionnaire for recording clinical-epidemiological data. Blood pressure levels were classified as being normal, pre-HBP and hyper-HBP in accordance with the guidelines issued by the 7th National Joint Committee for detecting, evaluating and treating HBP (JNC-7) and the 4th report of the working group for diagnosis, evaluation and treatment of HBP in children and adolescents.61.3 % and 68.7 % were found to have normal blood pressure, 34.9 % and 20.7 % were pre-HBP and 3.7 % and 10.4 % hyper-HBP according to JNC-7 and 4th report guidelines, respectively, whilst 71 % and 66 % had a family background of diabetes and HBP, 22 % were overweight and obese and 24 % had a background of alcohol consumption.It is suggested that 4th report guidelines should be adopted in clinical practice whilst JNC-7 guidelines should be used for epidemiological studies. Accepting the pre-HBP concept and its early detection for preventing HBP will facilitate effective health promotion regarding changes in lifestyle.
