School Nurse Practices Related to Blood Pressure Screening, and Identification and Monitoring of High Blood Pressures in Youth.

Despite rising prevalence of high blood pressure among youth, literature on school nurses' practices related to youth blood pressure is limited. We aimed to describe school nurses' current practices related to blood pressure screening and identification and monitoring of high blood pressures. We conducted a web-based national survey of currently practicing school nurses and received 195 responses across 37 states.
