Resumo
Objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate whether the dietary intake and nutritional status of pregnant women, were associated with the pregnancy (HDP) Methods: It was a cross-sectional study developed in Brazil, which evaluated 125 pregnant women, of whom 16.8% (21) presented HDP. Socioeconomic data, gestation, anthropometry, health status and food consumption were analyzed through a 24 hour dietary recall (24 HR) and a food frequency questionnaire (FFQ). Statistical tests were used at the significance level set at 5%. Results: Among the pregnant women, 10.4% (n = 13) used antihypertensive medication, 16.0% (n = 20) had preexisting comorbidity and 80.8% (n = 101) had a family history of hypertension arterial (HA). The factors associated with the prevalence of HDP in this population were pre-gestational body mass index (BMI) (p = 0.017), current BMI (p = 0.009), arm circumference (p = 0.002), family history of HA = 0.035), associated comorbidities (p = 0.009) and consumption of industrialized foods (p = 0.007). Conclusions: Our results show that the prevalence of HDP among pregnant women was associated with nutritional factors such as body weight and dietary intake. Thus, nutritional care during pregnancy can act as a protective factor for the health of this population, minimizing maternal and fetal complications.
