Hypertension and obesity in cardiology outpatients: a cross-sectional study

Year 2019, Volume: 4 Issue: 2, 51 - 56, 30.08.2019

Abstract



Introduction: Atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases are the leading causes of death
worldwide. Both hypertension and obesity are frequent in Turkey and are seen in
around 30% of the population. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of
hypertension and to investigate its relationship with obesity in patients
admitted to a cardiology outpatient clinic.



Methods: This descriptive cross-sectional study was
conducted between the 15th of January and the 28th of February 2018 at the
Medical Park İzmir Hospital Cardiology Polyclinics. Data were collected from 55
out of 256 people who were referred to the clinic on the specified dates. Data
were collected about systolic and diastolic blood pressures, height, weight,
gender, age category, educational status, marital status, and history of
hypertension.



Results: Of the participants, 35
(63.6%) were men, and 20 (36.4%) were women. The mean age and body mass index
values were 44.60±11.03and 28.18±3.89kg/m2, respectively. In total, 85.4% were
overweight or obese. The mean systolic and diastolic blood pressures were
140.09±7.99 mmHg and 90.69±7.07 mmHg, respectively. 31 (56.4%) patients had
systolic, 34 (61.8%) had diastolic, and 37 (67.3%) had systolic or diastolic
hypertension. Of those with hypertension, 26 (70.2%) were not aware of their
condition. In the regression analysis, gender was the only independent factor
predicting high blood pressure (p=0.005; odds ratio=6.4).



Conclusion: Hypertension and obesity were common among
patients in the cardiology outpatient clinics. Family physicians are expected
to be competent in managing common health problems and are focused on
preventive health practices, and thus, they should take a more active role in
the struggle against hypertension and obesity.

Bir kardiyoloji polikliniğinde hipertansiyon ve obezite yaygınlığı: Kesitsel bir araştırma‎

Year 2019, Volume: 4 Issue: 2, 51 - 56, 30.08.2019
https://doi.org/10.22391/fppc.483544

Abstract



Giriş: Aterosklerotik kardiyovasküler hastalıklar bütün
dünyada erken ölüm nedenlerinin başında yer ‎almaktadır. Türkiye’de gerek
hipertansiyon, gerekse obezite yaygınlığı yüksek olup, her ikisi de %30 civarındadır‎.
‎Bu çalışmada kardiyoloji polikliniğine başvuran kişilerde hipertansiyon
yaygınlığının belirlenmesi ve obezite ile hipertansiyon ilişkisinin
araştırılması amaçlanmıştır.



Yöntem: Tanımlayıcı-kesitsel tasarımdaki bu araştırma 15 Ocak – 28 Şubat 2018
tarihleri arasında Medical Park İzmir Hastanesi ‎kardiyoloji polikliniğinde
yürütülmüştür. Polikliniğe belirtilen tarihlerde başvuran 256 kişiden 55’inin
verileri analiz edilmiştir.‎ Katılımcıların sistolik ve diyastolik kan
basınçları, boy, ağırlık, cinsiyet, yaş kategorisi, öğrenim ‎durumu, medeni
durum ve bilinen hipertansiyon varlığı hakkında veri toplanmıştır.‎

Bulgular: Katılımcıların 35’i (%63,6) erkek, 20’si (%36,4) kadındı. Yaş
ortalaması ‎‎44,60±11,03 ‎idi. Çalışmaya katılanlarda vücut kitle indeksi (VKİ)
ortalaması 28,18±3,89 idi; ‎‎%85,4 kilolu veya obez sınıfındaydı. ‎Sistolik ve
diyastolik kan basıncı ortalamaları sırasıyla 140,09±7,99 mmHg ve 90,69±7,07
‎mmHg idi. Katılımcıların 31’inde (%56,4) sistolik, 34’ünde (%61,8) diyastolik,
‎‎37’sinde (%67,3) ise sistolik veya diyastolik hipertansiyon bulunmaktaydı.
‎Hipertansiyon tespit edilen 37 kişiden 26’sında (%70,2) hipertansiyon öyküsü
‎bulunmamaktaydı.‎ Regresyon analizinde cinsiyetin yüksek kan basıncı için
diğer faktörlerden bağımsız bir şekilde ‎belirleyici olduğu saptandı (p=0,005;
odds oranı=6,4).







Sonuç: Kardiyoloji polikliniğine başvuran kişiler arasında hipertansiyon ve
‎obezite oranları yüksektir. Sık görülen sağlık sorunlarının yönetilmesinde
yetkin olması beklenen ve ‎koruyucu sağlık uygulamalarına odaklı aile
hekimlerinin hipertansiyon ve obeziteyle mücadelede ‎daha etkin rol almaları
gerekmektedir.‎
