Nearly 25% of the US population has hypertension. The greatest incidence is in older adults
because of changes in the intima of vessels as aging and calcium deposition occur. Males of any
age are more likely to be hypertensive than females of the same age. African American adults

Hispanics have the highest rates. Hypertension occurs in 5-10% of pregnancies.
