Abstract
OBJETIVO: Analisar a ocorrência de violência física e/ou psicológica segundo variáveis sociodemográficas, hábitos de vida e condições clínicas em uma população brasileira de área urbana. MÉTODO: Este estudo epidemiológico de corte transversal foi realizado com amostra representativa da população urbana de Feira de Santana (BA) com idade acima de 15 anos. Foi utilizado um formulário semiestruturado para pesquisar informações sociodemográficas, hábitos de vida, condições clínicas e atos de vitimização. RESULTADOS: Entre os respondentes, as mulheres apresentaram maior ocorrência de violência física e/ou psicológica quando comparadas aos homens. A violência contra a mulher esteve atrelada à presença de comorbidades que afetam negativamente sua saúde. CONCLUSÃO: As políticas de atenção a saúde e segurança do município devem contemplar ações direcionadas ao combate à violência contra a mulher, tendo em vista a elevada ocorrência e o impacto ocasionado por esse problema na saúde da população.
