White-coat hypertension is a condition when a person’s blood pressure tends to increase only when they are at the doctor's office. In children, blood pressure between the 90th and 95th percentile is labelled as pre-hypertension and above the 95thcentile it is classified as hypertension. The difference between 90th and 95th centiles for both systolic and diastolic blood pressure is only 4 mm of Hg. Methods: Children between ages 5 to 10 years admitted in the children ward of Shri Krishna Medical College and Hospital, Muzaffarpur, Bihar, India from February to April 2020 included in the study. We record blood pressure by oscillometer 4 times a day, over 4 days of hospital stay and each time two readings were taken at 5 minute intervals. Results: During 4 days of hospital stay blood pressure varied widely. In addition  second reading of BP were always less than the first reading BP,  but second readings data also varied widely just as first readings. Conclusion: White coat’ hypertension is the phenomenon where BP is exaggerated by act of measuring BP. This is initiated by anxiety. Children are particularly susceptible and distressed by the circumstances of hospitalization, stranger anxiety and fear to painful intervention. We should take multiple readings before reach a conclusion of hypertension.                  Key words: Blood pressure, White-coat Hypertension, Ambulatory BP, Hypertension

Anxiety is a reaction of an individual to change or a stressful event. Separation anxiety, fear of darkness, stranger anxiety etc., are normal features of development during the initial part of life. However, if it persists and not identified at an early stage can lead to anxiety disorders in children. Parents play an important role in its identification at an early stage and management to protect the child from long term consequences of anxiety disorders. It imposes them to have an appropriate belief about the experience of their child’s anxiety.  Cross sectional survey was conducted among 252 parents who visited Saqr hospital for various health care issues. Participants were selected using a convenience sampling technique. Data was collected with the use of a self-reported Parental Belief about child's anxiety questionnaire (PBA-Q). Majority (93.7%) of parents had a moderate level and 5.6% had a highly negative belief about the experience of their child’s anxiety. No significant association was observed between Parental Belief about a child's anxiety and demographic variables like age, gender, education. However, a significant association was observed with the household income of the family. Parents being the primary and most influential caregiver, play a significant role in the emotional health of the children. Findings of the present study strongly recommend regular assessment of parents belief about the experience of anxiety in children and provide guidance to minimize anxiety disorders in children. PBA-Q is a simple tool that can be used in day to day practice.
