Abstract
n Background: One in four people worldwide is affected by high blood pressure, which is also the third leading cause of illness and a significant risk factor for death. Compared to non-working women, employed women had a higher prevalence of hypertension. This might be attributed to various factors such as job-related stress, lack of relaxation, and lack of physical activity. Method: Quantitative approach was adopted. To investigate the related determinants of hypertension in working women and non-working women, a non-experimental comparative approach was used. In the antenatal OPD of the Institute of Medical Sciences and SUM Hospital in Bhubaneswar, Odisha, the study was carried out the tools used for the study were (1) demographic questionnaire, (2) checklist to assess the associated factors, (3) to measure blood pressure levels using a questionnaire. The data collection approach employed was the interview method. Informed written consent was taken from each participant before the data collection. SPSS 20 was used to enter and evaluate the data. Results: Compared to working women, non-working women have more severe levels of hypertension. In non-working, sleep disturbances (72%), drinking coffee/tea more than 2 times in a day (70%), family-related stress (62%), family history of hypertension (54%), and associated diseases (48%) were the leading factors. The factors were almost similar in both groups except for the factor “Job Stress”. Conclusion: Present study shows that the magnitude of hypertension among non-working women is more as compared to the counterpart. Healthcare providers should reinforce the women the importance of regular drug intake, balanced nutrition, physical activity, and lifestyle modification.n
