RESUMEN
RESUMEN

Introducción:

Las enfermedades cardiovasculares son la principal causa de muerte en el país, en el sexo femenino.

Objetivo:

Identificar señales ateroscleróticas tempranas en mujeres de edad mediana con antecedentes de preeclampsia.

Método:

Estudio observacional descriptivo de corte transversal con 108 mujeres entre 45-59 años de edad, en el Policlínico Docente Chiqui Gómez Lubián, de Santa Clara (Cuba), en los años 2017 y 2018. El grupo estudio estuvo constituido por 54 mujeres que tuvieron antecedentes de preeclampsia en la última década; la misma cantidad de ellas, sin este antecedente, conformaron el grupo control.

Resultados:

El factor de riesgo con mayor prevalencia en el total de mujeres estudiadas fue el combinado de sobrepeso y obesidad (75%), subgrupo donde se ubicó el 98,1% de aquellas con antecedentes de preeclampsia. Le siguieron en orden de frecuencia la hipercolesterolemia (71,3 %), la hipertensión arterial (54,6%), el hábito de fumar (51,8%) y la diabetes mellitus (38,9%). El 92,6% de las mujeres con antecedentes de preeclampsia eran hipertensas y todas tenían una circunferencia abdominal ≥ 88 cm. Además, todas aquellas con riesgo cardiovascular moderado, alto o muy alto tenían antecedentes de preeclampsia, y del total de mujeres con bajo riesgo cardiovascular, solo 22 (28,9%) tenían este antecedente; pues el resto (71,1%) representa el total de mujeres sin preeclampsia.

Conclusiones:

En las mujeres con preeclampsia predominaron las señales ateroscleróticas tempranas, como la obesidad, la circunferencia abdominal mayor de 88 cm y la hipertensión arterial; así como los factores de riesgo aterogénico asociados a un riesgo cardiovascular moderado, alto y muy alto.
ABSTRACT
ABSTRACT

Introduction:

In our country, cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death among women.

Objective:

To identify early atherosclerotic signs in middle aged women with a history of pre-eclampsia.

Method:

An observational descriptive study was carried out with 108 women aged 45-59 years old, at the Policlínico Docente Chiqui Gómez Lubián, in Santa Clara (Cuba), over the years 2017 and 2018. The study group was made up of 54 women who had a history of pre-eclampsia in the last decade while the control group comprised the same number of women with no history of pre-eclampsia.

Results:

The most prevalent risk factor in the total number of women studied was the combination of overweight and obesity (75%); this subgroup comprised 98.1% of those with a history of pre-eclampsia. It was followed in frequency by hypercholesterolemia (71.3%), high blood pressure (54.6%), smoking (51.8%) and diabetes mellitus (38.9%). The 92.6% of women with a history of pre-eclampsia were hypertensive and all had an abdominal circumference ≥ 88 cm. Furthermore, all those with moderate, high or very high cardiovascular risk had a history of pre-eclampsia, and of the total number of women with low cardiovascular risk, only 22 (28.9%) had such a background; as the rest (71.1%) accounted for the total number of women without pre-eclampsia.

Conclusions:

Early atherosclerotic signs obesity, abdominal circumference greater than 88 cm and high blood pressure, as well as atherogenic risk factors associated with moderate, high and very high cardiovascular risk predominated in women with pre-eclampsia.
