Arterial hypertension (HTA) affects more than one billion people in the world, which is why it is the most frequent risk factor when it comes to talk about cardiovascular diseases. The Body Mass Index (BMI) above normal values (Overweight and Obesity) is a risk factor for HTA. OBJETIVE. a) Determine the relationship between increased BMI and hypertension, b) Determine the percentage of patients treated and not controlled, and c) Quantify patients with obesity, overweight, and normal weight.
A cross-sectional, observational and analytical study was carried out, which included patients who spontaneously attended the Cardiology Service of the Hospital Italiano of Córdoba, between the months of May and June 2022. Surveys, anthropometric measurements (weight and height) and blood pressure (BP) were carried out on the population studied, under standardized conditions.
When analyzing the association between BMI and hypertension, we found that of the 75 people who were diagnosed with hypertension (n=75), 43 were obese, 24 were overweight, and 8 were normal weight; that is to say, that 89% of the patients with AHT had an increased BMI; while in non-hypertensives, only 63% had increased BMI (p<0.001). Patients with AHT had an average BMI higher than the observed among those who were not diagnosed with AHT. Of the 74 hypertensive patients treated; 41 presented AHT records in the office and 33 revealed normal BP values. Thus, 55.4% of hypertensive patients treated without control were observed. Within the sample, 20% entered the Normal Weight category; 30% within the overweight category and 50% within the Obesity category.
Overweight and obese patients had AHT, indicating that the greater the weight, the greater the tendency to HTA. In turn, most of the patients with AHT were treated but not controlled. Obesity was the most frequent within the sample. |

Obesity was the most frequent within the sample. La hipertensión arterial (HTA) afecta a más de mil millones de personas en el mundo, por lo que es el factor de riesgo más frecuente a la hora de hablar sobre enfermedades cardiovasculares. El Índice de Masa Corporal (IMC) por encima de valores normales (Sobrepeso y Obesidad) es un factor de riesgo para HTA. OBJETIVOS. a) Determinar la relación entre IMC aumentado e HTA, b) Determinar el porcentaje de pacientes tratados y no controlados y c) Cuantificar los pacientes con obesidad, sobrepeso y normopeso. Se realizó un estudio transversal, observacional y analítico, que incluyó a pacientes que concurrieron espontáneamente al Servicio de Cardiología del Hospital Italiano de Córdoba, entre los meses de mayo y junio de 2.022. Se realizaron encuestas, mediciones antropométricas (peso y altura) y de tensión arterial (TA) a la población estudiada, en condiciones estandarizadas. Al analizar la asociación entre el IMC e HTA, encontramos que de las personas con diagnóstico de HTA (n=75), 43 eran obesas, 24 tenían sobrepeso y 8 normopeso; es decir, que el 89% de los pacientes con HTA tenían IMC aumentado; mientras que en los no hipertensos, solo el 63% tenía IMC aumentado (p<0,001). Los pacientes con HTA tuvieron un promedio de IMC mayor que el observado entre quienes no estaban diagnosticados de HTA. De los 74 pacientes hipertensos tratados; 41 presentaron registros de HTA en consultorio y 33 revelaron valores normales de TA. Con lo que se observó un 55.4 % de pacientes hipertensos tratados no controlados. Dentro de la muestra, el 20 % entró en la categoría de Normopeso; el 30% dentro de la categoría sobrepeso y el 50% dentro de la categoría de Obesidad. Los pacientes con sobrepeso y obesidad presentaban HTA, indicando que a mayor peso mayor tendencia al a la HTA. A su vez, la mayoría de los pacientes con HTA estaban tratados y no controlados. La obesidad fue el más frecuente dentro de la muestra. . Universidad Nacional Córdoba. Facultad de Ciencias Médicas.
