[Possibilities for the detection and monitoring of children and adolescents with hypertension].
Blood pressure measurements have been taken for ten years or more on the basis of a standard programme as part of the paediatric mass screening, starting with the second medical examination for school entrance. They have now become an integral component of this checkup routine. The following recommendations are made for a revised prophylactic examination programme: enlargement of case history questionnaire on arterial hypertension, maintenance of present valid norms and recommendations for medical attention in cases of high blood pressure risk, and blood pressure measurements for school entrants in grades 6 and 9.
