Hypertension Burden in Cambodia (2010): Hypertension affected 12% of adults aged 25-64, totaling approximately 722.3 thousand people out of a total population of 14.3 million. Awareness (diagnosed) was 29.7%, with about 214.5 thousand adults knowing they had hypertension. Treatment coverage was around 18.3%, with 129.3 thousand adults under treatment, and about 40.5% had controlled hypertension, meaning blood pressure was managed through treatment.

Key Risk Factors and Recommendations: WHO recommends addressing modifiable risks like high salt intake, lack of physical activity, and obesity. Modifiable factors include unhealthy diets high in salt, saturated fats, and low fruit/vegetable intake, as well as tobacco use and excess weight. WHO technical packages like HEARTS and GLOBAL HEARTS provide strategies for this. Treatment should use essential medicines such as thiazide diuretics, ACE inhibitors, and others.

Trends and Projections: The prevalence of uncontrolled hypertension increased over time from 2000 to 2025. Age-specific data shows higher prevalence in older adults and males, with control rates improving slightly.

National and Global Responses: Cambodia's 2019 national capacity survey indicated available policies to reduce salt consumption and hypertension medicines, but rates were low. National targets aim to reduce hypertension prevalence in 25-64-year-olds from 11.2% to 9.3% by 2027 and reduce salt intake by 30%. WHO supports monitoring and scaling up interventions.

Definitions and Data Sources: Hypertension defined by systolic/diastolic blood pressure ≥140/90 mmHg or doctor diagnosis. Awareness requires diagnosis and no specific treatment mention, while under treatment and controlled include medication use. Data from WHO STEPS surveys, UN population estimates, and other sources dated up to 2019.
