Resumo: |
Adolescents present behaviors and important changes in the body, in the way of thinking, acting and in the performance of social roles, and especially exposure to behavioral risk factors. The objective of this study was to evaluate the risk factors for hypertension among adolescents from Goiânia - Go. This was a cross-sectional study, data collection was performed between 2013-2014, with the participation of 1,586 adolescents from 36 schools (public and Private schools) of 108 classes in Goiânia-GO. All adolescents were interviewed about socio-demographic and behavioral characteristics such as tobacco use, alcohol and other cardiovascular risk factors and also had blood pressure measured and weight and height measured. Data records were made on a digital device (PDA). There was a high prevalence of hypertension among adolescents: 6.2% (95% CI: 4.6-8.2%) in girls and 14.0% (95% CI: 10.2 -18.8%) In the boys. The prevalence of hypertension was twice as high in boys compared to girls (p <0.001). Overweight was independently associated with hypertension in girls. Obesity was a risk factor for hypertension in both sexes. Tobacco use was not a factor associated with arterial hypertension; tobacco use among boys was 19.3% (95% CI: 14.9; 24.5) and girls 19.1% (95% CI: : 15.8; 22.8) both with similar results to the use. Alcohol use in the last 30 days was not a factor associated with arterial hypertension; however, statistically significant results were found for binge drinking among boys (5.0%; 95% CI: 3.3; , 5) and in girls 6.8% (95% CI: 4.9, 9.3) (p <0.277). The results of this investigation indicate the need to implement strategies for the prevention and control of hypertension and risk factors, especially in the school context, with actions to promote health and training of professionals in the areas of education and health. |
