Epidemiological Profile of the Hypertensions

Abstract

Hypertension is a chronic pathology that needs care because it is considered as risk factors for the appearance of other cardiovascular diseases. The objective of this study was to analyze the epidemiological profile of hypertensive residents in the urban area of Vitória da Conquista. The research is transversal in nature with a quantitative approach. To collect the data were used questionnaires composed of questions that belonged to the study. The study involved 306 people who were diagnosed with hypertension of both genders, 75 male and 231 female, where 63.4% of hypertensive patients did not work and most were of social class D, most of the schooling was low being 44% and most had only elementary education incomplete and 90.3% studied in the public education network, 53.2% were married. This research provided a controlled health-disease profile in which a very low number of people with conditions associated with hypertension were verified, this means that blood pressure control is being effective. This research has provided a controlled health-disease profile in which a very low number of people with pathologies associated with hypertension have been verified, this means that the monitoring of the pressure is being effective. However, it was possible to notice that hypertensive patients do not use continuous medication, being a point of alert in our study. It was observed in the study a high number of patients make use of natural medicines, often because they think that it has fewer side effects.

“…In this study, were utilized the same variables and added mental disorders and body fat, individually applying between genders and a strong association to both groups was verified. There is evidence, therefore, that arterial pressure could be influenced by several environmental factors and also by psychological ones (DORADO, SANTOS, et al, 2019).…”

“…For hemodynamic values, blood pressure was measured, measured using a digital device, in a sitting position, preferably on the left arm, being calculated from the average of the second and third measurements and hypertension was defined as systolic blood pressure ≥ 140 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure of at least 90 mmHg (or both) (BEANEY, SCHUTTE, et al, 2018, CORREIRA, GUIMARÃES, et al, 2019, DORADO, SANTOS, et al, 2019. BP ≥ 140 / 90mmHg, according to the guidelines of the Brazilian Society of Cardiology (SOCIEDADE BRASILEIRA DE CARDIOLOGIA, 2016).…”
