Resumo
High Blood Pressure (HBP) is a chronic disease and a risk
factor for cardiovascular, cerebrovascular and chronic kidney
disease, which can lead to death. In addition, it is a serious
public health problem. The main factor for the lack of success
in controlling HBP and prevention of comorbidities is the non-
compliance to treatment, which is related to the frequency
of attendance to medical appointments, proper use of
medication (drug treatment), and behavioral changes that
determine the success of non-pharmacological treatment (diet
control and physical exercise). The objective of the present
study was to evaluate the risk factors related to hypertension
and patient compliance to the HIPERDIA program. The
medical records of 561 patients were analyzed from 1998
to 2010. The compliance to the treatment was assessed
by the frequency of ambulatory visits, while the prevalence
of risk was evaluated before and after the intervention. The
progression of the disease was analyzed for 12 years, with
the condition to include attendance at 2 annual consultations.
It was observed low frequency of consultations, since only
110 patients from the 561 initially recruited complied with
the condition of the study. The risk factors prevalent at the
beginning and in the end of the study were sedentary life
style, obesity and unbalanced diet, demonstrating poor
adherence to non-pharmacological treatment. However,
among patients who remained in the program, there was
effective blood pressure control, indicating the importance of
institutionalized care.
