Resumo: |
Chronic diseases as hypertension can affect people's health-related quality of life (HRQoL) mainly if associated to inadequate health literacy. Living in a rural area difficult accessing health services. This study aimed to evaluate HRQoL and health literacy of people living with hypertension in rural areas. The descriptive study included 114 hypertensive individuals living in rural areas, who are assisted by Brazil's Family Health Strategy. It was used instruments as SF-36v2, MINICHALBrazil and the Brief Test of Functional Health Literacy in Adults (B-TOFHLA). Data were analyzed descriptively using Anova, Mann-Whitney, Kruskal-Wallis and T-Tests. The individuals were mainly female, mean age 59 years, 8 years or less of schooling. Body Mass Index indicated altered weight (≥ 25 Kg/cm2 ), even they referring daily habits changes after medical diagnose of hypertension. The lower SF-36 scales scores were “general health perceptions” (46,58) and “physical functioning” (51,10); the highest were “social functioning” (76,86) e “mental health” (72,49). MINICHAL domains scores were “mental status” (5,9) and “somatic manifestations” (3,3). There was correlation between SF-36 and MINICHAL scores. The health literacy test pointed to a inadequate health literacy for most of hypertensive individuals. Differences between man and woman were shown in most of SF-36 scales scores. Health literacy level was inadequate between the older and those with less years of schooling. It was concluded that people living with hypertension in rural areas have altered quality of life and limited health literacy. They should have easier access to health programs to receive Family Health Strategy attention, considering their literacy needs. Results suggest health professional strategy changes for hypertensive individuals living in rural areas, to effective health related care, self care and better quality of life |
