RESUMO
O Escore de Framingham (EF) é utilizado para estratificar o risco cardiovascular. O presente estudo objetivou identificar, entre os hipertensos assistidos pela Estratégia Saúde da Família (ESF), a prevalência dos fatores de risco utilizados no EF e do uso de drogas que reduzem o risco cardiovascular. Trata-se de estudo transversal, que avaliou amostra aleatória de hipertensos da ESF no norte de Minas Gerais. Os dados foram coletados em entrevistas e consulta aos prontuários. Foram avaliados 505 hipertensos em 9 municípios da região, com predomínio de mulheres, 325 (64,4%) e média de idade de 66,4 anos. Em 90% dos hipertensos houve pelo menos 1 fator de risco associado. O agrupamento de 3 ou mais fatores ocorreu em 79 (15,7%) pacientes. Dislipidemia foi encontrada em 188 (37,2%), diabetes em 101 (20%) e tabagismo em 36 (7,1%). O uso de anti-hipetensivo foi observado em 481 (95,2%) hipertensos. O uso de outras drogas cardioprotetoras foi maior entre pacientes 3 ou mais fatores de risco 45,6% usavam antiagregantes plaquetários e 27,8% usavam hipolipemiantes. A prevalência de fatores de risco do EF na população estudada mostrou-se bastante elevada e o uso de drogas cardioprotetoras mostrou-se restrito. Estratégias para ampliar o uso do EF podem melhorar o manejo da hipertensão arterial na ESF.
ABSTRACT
The Framingham Risk Score (FRS) is used to stratify cardiovascular risk. This study sought to identify the prevalence of risk factors used in the FRS and the use of drugs that reduce cardiovascular risk among hypertensive patients attended by the Family Health Strategy (FHS). It is cross-sectional study, which evaluated a random sample of hypertensive patients in the FHS in northern Minas Gerais. Data were collected through interviews and from medical records. 505 hypertensive patients were evaluated in 9 municipalities of the region, with a predominance of women; 325 (64.4%), mean age of 66.4 years. In 90% of hypertensive patients there was at least one associated risk factor. The grouping of three or more factors occurred in 79 (15.7%) patients. Dyslipidemia was found in 188 (37.2%), diabetes in 101 (20%) and smoking in 36 (7.1%). The use of anti-hypertensive drugs was observed in 481 (95.2%) patients. The use of other cardioprotective drugs was higher among patients with 3 or more risk factors 45.6% used antiplatelet and 27.8% used lipid-lowering drugs. The prevalence of risk factors from the FRS in the population studied was quite high and the use of cardioprotective drugs was seen to be restricted. Strategies to increase the use of FRS may improve the management of hypertension in the FHS.
