A structured interviewer administered questionnaire was used to identify the prevalence and risk factors of Hypertension and Type 2 Diabetes among adults in Baa.Kamadhoo. The sample size of this study was 125 samples. For data analysis Microsoft excel and SPSS were used. Descriptive statistics, frequency and percentage, cross tabulation and Chi-square were used in analysis. All the participants in this study are aged 18 years and above.
