Abstract: Elevated blood pressure (BP) is a significant burden worldwide, leading to high cardio-cerebro-reno-vascular morbidity and mortality. For the second year of the May Measurement Month (MMM) campaign in Indonesia in 2018, we recruited 174 sites in 31 out of 34 provinces in Indonesia and screened through convenience sampling in public areas and rural primary health centres.

Correspondingly, as part of the International Society of Hypertension initiative, the May Measurement Months (MMM) screening campaign in Indonesia in 2018 showed 34.5% of adults had hypertension (Turana, 2020). In Indonesia, low levels of awareness are reported more among men and those living in rural areas (Riskesdas, 2018).…”

“…In addition, physicians identified concerns with the accuracy and reliability of HBP devices as a key factor hindering the recognition of HBPM by physicians and patients. This could be attributed to the lack of instructions on device calibration in the local guidelines of most countries/regions, except for China, Indonesia, and Japan [15][16][17]. As with all devices, it is important to ensure HBP monitors are calibrated and Local guidelines should advocate using calibrated HBPM devices and provide specific instructions on calibration to support accurate measurements [18].…”
