Hipertensão como fator de risco para doenças cardiovasculares: plano de ação no âmbito da ESF-Guaicuí

Abstract

Currently, it is suggested that more than 80% of deaths from cardiovascular diseases are associated with known risk factors. By great relevance has been emphasized control of diabetes mellitus, obesity, physical inactivity, tobacco use, hyperlipidemia, and especially hypertension.Patients with these chronic diseases also suffer with other acute illnesses that appear in the course of their lives, the so-called Double burden or diseases, increasing morbidity and mortality already so large for this group. Both these chronic conditions such as acute, present mainly at the primary care level, and should be treated, therefore, especially in this area. Ascribed in the territory of the ESF-Guaicui it is clear this same reality, where more than 50% of its registered Hypertensives patients are at high risk for cardiovascular disease. Entire length of the above problem shows the need for a multidisciplinary and strategic planning of specific actions by the family health team, with a systematized follow-up for each risk group, priority groups and high and very high-risk population sensitive to cardiovascular complications. In this sense, we sought in this work to draw up an action plan based on major risk factors for cardiovascular disease monitoring and for dealing with users of hypertensive area of the ESF-Guaicui. Through this work, it was possible to know the forces acting on the territory which allows actions for health promotion and disease prevention to be effective, according to the socio-economic and cultural places, always looking for comprehensive health care for the population. It is expected that the proposed plan of action can actually be effected in conjunction with local management, health team and especially with the participation of the community, providing moments of autonomy and governance in health care, improving their quality of life.
