The analysis performed was chi-square test and logistic regression test. Results: The results showed exposure to cigarette smoke (OR= 3.398; 95%CI=1.540-7.683), alcohol consumption (OR= 4.277; 95%CI=1.608-12.606), sleep patterns (OR= 2.628; 95%CI=1.299-5.337), physical activity (OR= 1.75; 95%CI=0.824-3.746), stressful state (OR= 1.793; 95%CI=0.897-3.590;), and coffee consumption (OR= 1.258; 95%CI=0.613- 2.587;). In multivariate analysis, the most risk factor for hypertension was alcohol consumption (OR=4.948; 95%CI=1.841-13.302; ρ-value =0.002).
