Resumo: | The objective of this study was to identify biomedical factors (body mass index, blood pressure, blood glucose, total cholesterol and fractions, triglycerides, and albumin) associated with hospitalization of older adults. All residents of the town of Bambuí, Minas Gerais State, ages ³ 60 years (n = 1,742) were selected for the study, of whom 1,494 (85.2%) participated. None of the biomedical factors studied was independently associated with occurrence of 1 hospitalization during the previous 12 months. Body mass index < 20Kg/m² and total cholesterol = 200-263mg/dl and ³ 264mg/dl were independently associated with ³ 2 hospitalizations. The introduction of biomedical factors did not modify the previously identified associations between hospitalization and indicators constructed from information obtained in a questionnaire survey. The results show that data easily obtained through interviews can be useful both for identifying older adults at risk of hospitalization and thus for assisting in prevention. |

Foram selecionados para o estudo todos os residentes na cidade de Bambuí (Minas Gerais), com idade ³ 60 anos (n = 1.742). Desses, 1.494 (85,2%) participaram. Nenhum dos fatores biomédicos estudados apresentou associação independente com a ocorrência de uma internação hospitalar nos últimos 12 meses. Índice de Massa Corporal < 20kg/m² e colesterol total = 200-263mg/dl e ³ 264mg/dl apresentaram associações independentes com a ocorrência de ³ 2 internações hospitalares. É importante salientar que, a introdução de fatores biomédicos não modificou as associações previamente encontradas na mesma população entre a ocorrência de internações hospitalares e indicadores construídos com base em informações obtidas por meio de questionários. Este resultado mostra que dados de fácil obtenção por intermédio de entrevistas podem ser úteis para identificar idosos sob risco de hospitalização, para prevenção.Reports in Public HealthCadernos de Saúde Pública2003-05-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersiontext/htmlapplication/pdfhttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/article/view/1995Reports in Public Health; Vol. 19 No. 3 (2003): May/JuneCadernos de Saúde Pública; v. 19 n. 3 (2003): Maio/Junho1678-44640102-311Xreponame:Cadernos de Saúde Públicainstname:Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (FIOCRUZ)instacron:FIOCRUZenghttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/article/view/1995/3977https://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/article/view/1995/3978Guerra, Henrique L.Vidigall, Pedro G.Lima-Costa, Maria Fernandainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2024-03-06T15:26:45Zoai:ojs.teste-cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br:article/1995Revistahttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csphttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/oaicadernos@ensp.fiocruz.br||cadernos@ensp.fiocruz.br1678-44640102-311Xopendoar:2024-03-06T13:02:22.003609Cadernos de Saúde Pública - Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (FIOCRUZ)true |
