Modelo do estudo Estudo populacional descritivo, de corte transversal. Objetivo:
Avaliar a qualidade de vida de pacientes idosos hipertensos e diabéticos em um ambulatório de um hospital universitário no interior do Estado de São Paulo, Brasil.Metodologia:
Estudo realizado em um ambulatório de Geriatria, em São José do Rio Preto, envolvendo 62 pacientes idosos com pressão arterial elevada e/ou diabetes mellitus, atendidos no período de dezembro de 2009 a fevereiro de 2010. Os dados foram coletados com o WHOQOL-OLD, analisados com o Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) software, com testes Mann-Whitney e Kruskal-Wallis não paramétricos e correlação de Pearson, o nível de significância foi ajustado para um valor de p<0,05.Resultados:
38 (61,3%) idosos eram hipertensos e 23 (37,1%) diabéticos. A idade dos idosos foi de 67±7 (média, DP). Houve prevalência do sexo feminino (58 %), ensino fundamental (87,1%), casados (56,5%), profissões ligadas ao setor de serviços (56,4%), renda de 1 salário mínimo (66,1%) e morando com esposo(a) (58,1%). O maior escore mediano (75,0) foi encontrado nas facetas "Atividades passadas, presentes e futuras", "Participação social", "Morte e morrer" e "Intimidade". A faceta "Autonomia" apresentou o menor escore, correspondendo a 62,5. Os idosos hipertensos tiveram escore inferior aos diabéticos na faceta do "Funcionamento Sensório" (62,2 vs. 73,6, respectivamente).Conclusão:
Os idosos apresentaram qualidade de vida inferior na faceta "Autonomia" e melhor qualidade para as facetas "Atividades passadas, presentes e futuras", "Participa- ção social", "Morte e morrer" e "Intimidade". Não houve diferença na qualidade de vida entre diabéticos ou hipertensos, exceto por tendência a menor "Funcionamento do sensório" entre os hipertensos. (AU)ABSTRACT
