Abstrak

Introduction and Objective Hypertension is an evolving public health challenge at present, and it is preceded by a prehypertensive stage. Irregular sleep duration and pattern have been found to be linked with cardiovascular diseases. Medical students are highly vulnerable to low quality sleep due to pressure regarding the academic curriculum and poor lifestyle. The present study aimed to estimate the prevalence of prehypertension, describe the risk factors and sleep patterns of undergraduate medical students, and determine the association, if any, involving sleep time and duration and prehypertension.
