School children in Eberbach, Federal Republic of Germany

"Heidelberg: Schoolchildren in Eberbach, a spa in the Neckar Valley near Heidelberg, Federal Republic of Germany, are as at home with equipment to check their own blood pressure as they are with pen and pencil. About 2,000 youngsters aged 10 to 18 have been taking their blood pressure regularly for the past two years, as part of an experiment conducted by Heidelberg University on behalf of the World Health Organisation. The aim is to spot high blood pressure early since it leads to cardiac and circulatory complaints later in life."
