We have read Dr Forrest Adams' note entitled "Blood Pressure of Children in the United States" (Pediatrics See Table in the PDF File 61:931, 1978) in which he comments on specific sections of a report of a Task Force on Blood Pressure Control in Children. Knowledge concerning the relationship between blood pressure in children and subsequent health in adult life should be of continuous interest to all pediatricians. Dr Adams states that it is misleading to present percentile graphs of US children's blood pressures for reference because US children's blood pressures increase with age while other cultures fail to show an increase from infancy to 50 years.

Recently a Task Force of the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute published a report in Pediatrics on blood pressure control in children.1 The report was good in many respects in that it presented in summary form a critique of what we currently know and do not know about blood pressure in children. Particularly good for pediatricians were the sections on methodology for measurement of blood pressure; mechanisms and causes of hypertension; evaluation of the hypertensive patient; and treatment of the hypertensive patient. The Task Force stressed the importance of further research in the field of blood pressure control in children and specifically recommended that physicians incorporate the measurement of blood pressure in the annual physical examination after 3 years of age.
