RESUMEN
Objetivo Generar conocimientos y recomendaciones sobre las intervenciones comunitarias más efectivas en Promoción de la Salud para el manejo de la Hipertensión Arterial en Colombia. Métodos Se realizo una revisión sistemática en las bases de datos Cochrane, Lilacs, Ovid, Proquest y Pubmed, cuyo interés sobre el objeto de estudio se enmarcó en las intervenciones comunitarias más efectivas a nivel mundial para el manejo de la hipertensión arterial. La pregunta de investigación permitió incluir como palabras de búsqueda: Revisión sistemática, intervención comunitaria, costo efectividad, promoción salud, hipertensión. Se revisaron estudios en español, ingles y portugués. Las estrategias de investigación utilizadas partieron de definir el enfoque metodológico más pertinente para involucrar el nivel individual, interpersonal y comunitario en el desarrollo del proyecto. Resultados Se obtuvieron 1 041 artículos de revisiones sistemáticas y revisión de revisiones, 246 Abstracs, 197 artículos sobre intervenciones educativas para prevenir y controlar la hipertensión arterial y 53 artículos con diferentes enfoques de intervenciones informativas y de comunicación. De este universo de información solo 11 artículos completos referenciados cumplieron con los niveles de evidencia y criterios de evaluación necesarios para generar recomendaciones Conclusiones La evidencia sobre programas efectivos y culturalmente apropiados para fomentar la disminución de estos factores de riesgo es limitada. Se requiere mayor evidencia sobre intervenciones comunitarias dirigidas a grupos poblacionales vulnerables, adaptadas a las características culturales en los ámbitos cotidianos en los cuales viven con sus familias e involucren determinantes sociales relacionados con su estado de salud.
ABSTRACT
Objective Producing know-how and making recommendations concerning the most effective health promotion community interventions for managing high blood pressure in Colombia. Methods A systematic review was made of the Cochrane, Lilacs, Ovid, Proquest and Pubmed databases, the main interest of the study lying within the framework of the most effective community interventions around the world for managing high blood pressure. The following search words were used: systematic review, community intervention, cost effectiveness, health promotion and high blood pressure. Studies published in Spanish, English and Portuguese were reviewed. The research strategies used were derived from defining the most pertinent methodological approach for involving individual, interpersonal and community levels in developing the project. Results 1 041 articles were obtained from the systematic review of the literature: 246 abstracts, 197 articles about educational interventions for preventing and controlling high blood pressure and 53 articles adopting different approaches regarding informative interventions and communication. Only 11 complete referenced articles from this world of information fulfilled the levels of evidence and evaluation criteria necessary for producing recommendations. Conclusions The available evidence concerning effective, culturally-suitable programmes and for promoting a reduction in these risk factors is limited. Greater evidence regarding community interventions is required for reducing risk factors directed towards special population groups adapted to the cultural characteristics of the participating population. This must involve determinants of the social and physical context related to social practices, these being developed on a large scale within the daily settings in which the subjects and their families are living.
