Métodos:

se realizó un estudio descriptivo transversal en 108 mujeres de 40 a 59 años de edad, en el municipio Santa Clara, Villa Clara, durante el período 2017-2018; se les aplicó la escala de riesgo cardiovascular de la Organización Mundial de la Salud.

Resultados:

el sobrepeso y la obesidad resultaron los factores de riesgo con mayor presencia en la muestra 81 pacientes (75 %). Seguidos de la hipercolesterolemia (71,2 %), la hipertensión arterial (54,6 %), el tabaquismo (51,8 %) y la diabetes mellitus (38,8 %). El antecedente de preeclampsia apareció en todos los casos con riesgo cardiovascular moderado, alto y muy alto. Los síntomas circulatorios referidos por las pacientes con riesgo cardiovascular fueron los sofocos, las sudoraciones nocturnas y la cefalea; el síntoma psicológico referido fue el insomnio.

Conclusiones:

en las mujeres de edad mediana se encontraron factores de riesgo cardiovascular como la obesidad, la hipercolesterolemia, la hipertensión arterial, el tabaquismo y la diabetes mellitus. El antecedente de preeclampsia, en los últimos diez años, se presentó en casos de mayor riesgo cardiovascular. La intensidad del climaterio con síntomas circulatorios y psicológicos se mostró en pacientes con riesgo cardiovascular moderado, alto y muy alto.
ABSTRACT
ABSTRACT

Introduction:

atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death in women.

Objective:

to describe the global cardiovascular risk in middle-aged women according to the intensity of the climacteric period and the antecedent of pre-eclampsia.

Methods:

a descriptive, cross-sectional study was carried out in 108 women aged 40 to 59 years from Santa Clara municipality, Villa Clara during 2017-2018; the World Health Organization cardiovascular risk prediction charts was applied to them.

Results:

overweight and obesity were the risk factors with the highest presence in the sample 81 patients (75%) followed by hypercholesterolemia (71.2%), high blood pressure (54.6%), smoking (51.8%) and diabetes mellitus (38.8%). The history of pre-eclampsia appeared in all cases with moderate, high and very high cardiovascular risk. Hot flushes, night sweats and headache were the circulatory symptoms reported by patients with cardiovascular risk; the referred psychological symptom was insomnia.

Conclusions:

cardiovascular risk factors such as obesity, hypercholesterolemia, arterial hypertension, smoking and diabetes mellitus were found in middle-aged women. The antecedent of pre-eclampsia, in the last ten years, appeared in cases of increased cardiovascular risk. The intensity of the climacteric period with circulatory and psychological symptoms was shown in patients with moderate, high and very high cardiovascular risk.
