Brief Summary  
Hypertension is an iceberg disease. Hypertension is the single largest contributor to the avoidable
deaths and diseases in India. India is facing a huge challenge of increasing burden of NCDs
because of rapid epidemiological transition. Most of the rural areas data on prevalence of
prehypertension and hypertension is lacking. Lack of data may lead to underestimation of this
important health problem in rural areas. As very few studies have been conducted in rural areas
of Karnataka of Southern India, hence this study was undertaken to estimate the prevalence and
risk factors of pre hypertension and hypertension in rural area of Karnataka of Southern India.
