ABSTRACT
Blood pressure is one of the parameters for disturbances in the cardiovascular system. There is scientific evidence that Haemoglobin can affect blood pressure, but the results appear inconsistent from several studies that have analyzed this relationship. This study aims to evaluate the relationship between haemoglobin and blood pressure in several relevant studies. This study complies with the 2020 version of Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-analysis (PRISMA) guidelines. The literature search used four reputable databases: PubMed, ScienceDirect, Wiley Online Library, and Proquest. Two authors independently screened, extracted, and assessed study quality using the JBI critical appraisal tool. In the initial search of the entire database, there were 21,665 studies. Eleven articles were declared eligible, and extraction was carried out. Based on the extraction and descriptive analysis results, a strong relationship was found between Haemoglobin and blood pressure in healthy people and co morbidities. The greatest significant relationship was found in SBP. Haemoglobin should be a predictor of cardiovascular disorders based on the significance of its relationship with blood pressure.
