Dia mundial da Diabetes: 1ª Edição / World diabetes day: 1st Edition

Abstract

O diabetes mellitus (DM) afeta cerca de 13 milhões de brasileiros e juntamente com outras doenças crônicas não transmissíveis é a quarta maior causa de mortes no mundo. Os objetivos deste trabalho são esclarecer a população sobre os fatores de risco para DM, esclarecer sobre o potencial deletério dessa doença e promover a saúde incentivando adoção de hábitos de vida saudáveis, aproveitando a alusão ao Dia Mundial do Diabetes. Foram conduzidas anamneses dirigidas, avaliação de medidas antropométricas, aferição de pressão arterial e glicemia capilar. Na sequência, foram realizadas palestras dirigidas à população para disseminar informações de maneira acessível sobre os fatores de risco e formas de prevenção de DM e doenças cardiovasculares (DCV), visto que a presença de DM aumenta em 3 a 4 vezes o risco de DCV devido principalmente a hiperglicemia e a resistência insulínica. As palestras abordaram temas como hábitos de vida mais saudáveis, alimentação e exercício físico. Foram atendidos 36 pacientes, dos quais 55,55% eram homens, 33,35% eram diabéticos confirmados, 35,4% apresentaram glicemia ≥100 mg/dl durante o evento, mas não possuíam diagnóstico de DM e 80% apresentavam sobrepeso ou obesidade. Os fatores de risco mais prevalentes foram a alimentação hiperglicêmica e a história familiar positiva para DM, ambas relatadas por 41,66% dos pacientes. O menos prevalente foi o tabagismo, identificado em 19,44% dos pacientes. Foram feitas orientações caso-a-caso, além de esclarecimento de dúvidas durante o evento.

Relevant studies focused on health sciences

“…However, actions with the population using appropriate tools to obtain information about the individual and population risk profile, which allows both individualized approach at the time of care, as well as general, through the dissemination of essential information for the understanding of CVD and T2DM, its complications and the necessary care for primary and secondary prevention of these highly prevalent diseases, will certainly contribute to the reduction of related morbidity and mortality. Actions such as World Hypertension Day (VIECHINESKI et al, 2021), World Heart Day (DE OLIVEIRA et al , 2021), and World Diabetes Day (CALIXTO et al , 2022) should be encouraged and disseminated so that in the long term we will have the expected result.…”

“…This methodology was applied in all the actions with the population, with minor adaptations inherent to the Relevant studies focused on health sciences -Connecting extension, teaching and research through a broad academic project 754 central theme of the respective action. These actions were carried out, as far as possible, on the dates defined worldwide by the related societies for campaigns against hypertension: World Hypertension Day 1st edition (VIECHINESKI et al , 2021), prevention of CVD in general: World Heart Day 1st edition (DE OLIVEIRA et al , 2021), prevention of T2D: World Diabetes Day 1st edition (CALIXTO et al , 2022).…”

“…During the development period, the demand of some students for proposals of eminent scientific nature, such as the completion and submission of work in congresses of the regional medical specialty As a natural evolution, other extensionist actions such as World Heart Day 1st edition (DE OLIVEIRA et al, 2021) and World Diabetes Day 1st edition (CALIXTO et al, 2022) were carried out in our city, in their respective dates defined by the related societies. The need for specialized care in cardiology with molds aimed at the full care of the population, providing prescription assistance and emphasizing the need for changes in lifestyle habits in an individualized way, as well as meeting the social demands, motivated the organization of the cardiology outpatient clinic as an extensionist service, characterized by multidisciplinarity with the participation of social work and pharmacy together with medicine.…”
