Abstract
FUNDAMENTO: La hipertensión arterial sistémica (HAS), considerada un problema de salud pública debido a su elevada prevalencia y dificultad de control, se describe también como uno de los más importantes factores de riesgo para las enfermedades cardiovasculares. OBJETIVO: Estimar la prevalencia de la HAS, así como las características de su control y tratamiento, en la población de 18 a 90 años de la región urbana de Nobres - MT. MÉTODOS: Estudio transversal, de base poblacional, con muestreo aleatorio y con reposición. El criterio para la clasificación de la HAS fue la presión arterial (PA) > 140/90 mmHg o el uso actual de antihipertensivos. Se realizaron las entrevistas utilizándose encuestas estandarizadas y comprobadas previamente. Se describieron las variables por promedios ± desviaciones estándar y frecuencias. Se compararon los promedios utilizándose el test t-Student y las asociaciones por medio del test de chi-cuadrado de Pearson, con nivel de significancia del 5%. RESULTADOS: En los 1.003 individuos mayores de 18 años analizados, se observó una prevalencia de HAS del 30,1%. Entre los hipertensos (N = 302), el 73,5% sabía de esa condición, el 61,9% hacía tratamiento y el 24,2% tenía la PA controlada. Se observó la asociación positiva entre HAS y la edad; analfabetismo; escolaridad inferior a 8 años; IMC > 25kg/m²; circunferencia de la cintura aumentada y muy aumentada; razón cintura-cadera (RCC) en grupos de riesgo; sedentarismo y etilismo. CONCLUSIÓN: La HAS se reveló un importante problema de salud pública también en un municipio de pequeño porte del interior del país. Los niveles de control y tratamiento de la hipertensión en esa población se consideraron insatisfactorios, aunque mejores si comparados a los observados en otros estudios.
BACKGROUND: Systemic Arterial Hypertension (SAH), considered a public health problem due to its high prevalence and difficult control, is also described as one of the most important risk factors for cardiovascular diseases. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to determine the prevalence of SAH, as well as characteristics related to its control and treatment, among individuals aging between 18 and 90 years from the urban region of Nobres, MT. METHODS: Cross-sectional, population-based study, with random sampling and with replacement. For classification of SAH, criteria included blood pressure (BP) > 140/90 mmHg or current use of antihypertensive drugs. Individuals were interviewed with standardized questionnaires previously tested. Variables were described as means ± standard deviations and frequencies. Means were compared with the Student´s t test and associations were determined with the Pearson chi-square test, with a significance level of 5%. RESULTS: SAH has a prevalence of 30.1% in the sample, composed of 1,003 individuals older than 18 years. Among hypertensive individuals (N = 302), 73.5% knew about their condition, 61.9% were under treatment and for 24.2% the BP was under control. A positive association was observed between SAH and age; illiteracy; less than 8 years education; BMI > 25 kg/m²; high and very high waist circumference; waist-hip ratio (WHR) at risk level; sedentariness; and alcoholism. CONCLUSIONS: This study showed that SAH represents an important public health problem even in a small district in the interior region of Brazil. Levels of control and treatment of hypertension in the population were higher than those observed in similar studies, but were considered not satisfactory.
