Arterial Hypertension (AH) is a disease with multiple risk factors (RF), and it is one of the most important risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. The objective of this study was to determine the prevalence of AH in Sobremonte area and its correlation to other risk factors. The study was done in an special programme called “ Solidarity in Health” (SIH) supported by the College of Medicine at the National University of Córdoba, which provided primary care to residents of Cachi Yaco (Sobremonte Department). It is an small village near Santiago del Estero province located in 226 km from Córdoba city. They went to the city and they examined the patients at the the “French and Berutti” school for nine consecutive years (2000-2008). Sobremonte area is the poorest deparment in the province of Córdoba and it has the highest rate of lowest socio-economic development, and a very deficient health care system. . The only hospital providing primary care is in San Francisco del Chañar, and the access is not free. The study involved the determination of the arterial pressure (AP) according to the seventh “JNC”criteria , body mass index (BMI), levels of alcohol consumption, exercise, salt consumption, diabetes and smoking in all the patients. Additionally, three water samples from different representative zones were collected and tested for sodium concentration. 471 patients were included. The incidence of AH was 43.5% of the patients. (51% men and 36% women). Higher incidence of AH was found in patients between 50 and 59 years old. There was a stadistical difference in the BMI, diabetes, and alcohol consumption between healthy patients and patients with AH. There was not any correlation between AH and exercise. We found higher levels of sodium in the water of this area and it was between 13-35 higher than in Córdoba city and it was correlated with AH. We conclude that the increased sodium consumption is one of the most important risk factor of AH in this population. |

La hipertensión arterial (HTA) es una enfermedad multifactorial y uno de los factores de riesgo (FR) más importante para enfermedades cardiovasculares. El objetivo de este trabajo fue conocer la prevalencia de la HTA y su relación con otros FR. Se realizó en el marco del programa “Solidarios por la Salud” (PSS), trabajo de extensión de la Facultad de Ciencias Médicas (FCM) de la Universidad Nacional de Córdoba (UNC), que realizó atención primaria de la salud (APS) en Cachi Yaco (Dpto. Sobremonte), paraje ubicado a 226 km de Córdoba Capital, límite con Santiago del Estero. Haciendo base en la escuela French y Berutti se realizaron 8 viajes por año, durante 9 años consecutivos (2000-2008), totalizándose 68. Este Dpto. es el más pobre, con mayor índice de necesidades básicas insatisfechas, mayor índice de analfabetos adultos y menor desarrollo socio económico y humano de la provincia de Córdoba y con un sistema de salud deficitario. Los caminos de acceso al interior del Dpto. son poco menos que intransitables. Monte adentro no hay telefonía ni transporte público diario. El agua de todo el Dpto. Y Sur de Ojo de Agua no es potable. El único hospital de la región con APS, el de San Francisco del Chañar y no es gratuito. El estudio consistió en determinar la tensión arterial (TA), criterios del 7th JNC; índice de masa corporal (IMC); ingesta de alcohol; sedentarismo; ingesta de sal; glucemia y tabaco, a los pacientes que consultaban al PSS. Se tomaron, además se realizaron, tres muestras de agua de consumo de zonas representativas de la región para medir concentración de sodio. El diseño consistió en un estudio tipo transversal con una población total de 471 pacientes de 18 años o más de edad, de ambos sexos. Los resultados arrojaron una prevalencia de HTA del 43,5% (51% en hombres y 36% mujeres). El promedio de la tensión sistólica en los Hipertensos tipo 1 (tanto hombres como mujeres) fue de 136,28 con un Desvío estándar (DS): 11,41 Para la tensión diastólica en HTA 1 el promedio fue de 86,7 con DS 6,77. Con una mayor prevalencia entre los 50 y 59 años de edad para ambos sexos. El promedio de la TA sistólica en HTA tipo 2 (tanto hombres como mujeres) fue de 164,93 con un DS de 19,56, el promedio para la diastólica fue de 100,71 con un DS de 11,23. En los FR se observó que el índice de IMC, diabetes e ingesta de alcohol mostraron diferencias significativas entre los pacientes con y sin HTA: en cuanto al consumo de tabaco no podemos abrir juicio por no haberse consignado el número de cigarrillos fumados por día. En relación al sedentarismo no se obtuvieron diferencias significativas. En cuanto al valor de sodio en el agua de consumo mostraron una concentración con respecto a la de Córdoba entre 7 y 20 veces superior. Podemos concluir que el significativo aumento del consumo de sodio en el agua y alimentos durante la vida de los pobladores, desde el nacimiento, es el FR y la causa más importante de la elevada prevalencia de la HTA en la población estudiada. Es imperativo que esta región sea provista de agua potable y sistema médico adecuado y gratuito a la brevedad. Universidad Nacional Córdoba. Facultad de Ciencias Médicas.
