The prevalence of prehypertension based on at least three separate measurements in children from 3 to 18 years in pediatric primary care clinics is reported. Data were derived from electronic medical records. The focus of this report was to verify that high BP, both hypertension and prehypertension, is not recognized by clinicians.
