Elevated blood pressure in children is a worldwide problem, constitute as major, often overlooked, public health problem in many countries. Normal blood pressure value in children varies based on age, sex and body height which available in standardized table. Measurement of blood pressure is crucial and needed to be done at least once a year in every child with risk factors. Risk factors for elevated blood pressure includes family history of hypertension, salt intake, physical activity, stress level and obesity. Therefore we aimed to determine risk factors for elevated blood pressure among children in Tulikup village Bali. This observational analytic study with cross-sectional design, was conducted in children age 1-18 years old whom visit child health community service program in Tulikup. We collected data from 81 children, age range from 1 to 13 years old, with median age was 4 years old. Data was collected by using questionnaire and physical examination. This study was dominated by female and elevated blood pressure (11.1%). On the other hand, nutritional status were both equal between well-nourished status and mild nutrition (44.4%). Multivariate analysis showed two factors associated with elevated blood pressure such as family history of hypertension with p=0.045 (OR 8.89; 95% CI 1.05-75.29) and excessive salt intake with p=0.046 (OR 5.24; 95% CI 1.02-26.77). Therefore risk factors such as family history of hypertension and excessive salt intake, significantly cause elevated blood pressure in children.
