| Abstract | Pre-hypertension (Pre-HT) is a significantly risk progress factor to hypertension which contributes to the development of cardiovascular disease that leaded cause of death. The purpose of this research was to identify work environments, health promotion practices, and other characteristics associated with Pre-HT among adults aged 35 - 59 years. This cross-sectional research was performed from January to March of 2023 with 1,202 participants aged between 35 and 59 years chosen by a multistage random sampling. Data was through interviews utilizing a reliable structured questionnaire. The data analysis encompassed the use of descriptive statistics, and a generalized linear mixed model (GLMM) was executed to ascertain the adjusted odds ratio (Adj. OR) and 95% CI for the presented findings. The participants, 26.29% were between the ages of 40 and 41, and 66.97% were female. The overall prevalence of Pre-HT was 73.55% (95% CI: 70.98 - 75.97). Results of the multivariable analysis revealed a strong association between Pre-HT and health promotion behavior (HPB) (Adj. OR = 1.84, 95% CI: 1.31 - 2.57, P-value < 0.001) work environment (Adj. OR = 2.07, 95% CI: 1.32 - 3.26, P-value = 0.006), gender (Adj. OR = 2.60, 95% CI: 1.89 - 3.57, P-value < 0.001), Age (Adj. OR = 1.70, 95% CI: 1.08 - 2.65, P-value = 0.050), history of smoking (Adj. OR = 2.60, 95% CI: 1.89 - 3.57, P-value < 0.001), Body mass index (Adj. OR = 2.09, 95% CI: 1.54 - 2.83, P-value < 0.001). Poor health promotion increased Pre-HT risk. Relevant authorities must evaluate group context to build a suitable health promotion model. |
