Introduction. Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of morbimortality in the Brazilian population. Recently, the Ministry of Health introduced Hiperdia , a system of registration and monitoring people living with Systemic Hypertension and Diabetes mellitus treated in the out patient facilities of the Public Health System, SUS hereafter. Main Goal. To describe the profile of hypertensive and diabetic patients enrolled in HiperDia treated in one of the eight basic units of the Rio Claro city, during the period between January and December 2012. Methods. The mortality data were obtained from Mortality Information System (SIM), and the population was estimated from the Brazilian Agency for Geography ans Statistics IBGE, both available at Brazilian Health Ministry (MS). Other data were collected from a consolidated data table distributed to all eight basic units and it was based on the registration form of HiperDia. Results. It was observed that the great majority of patients registered in HiperDia were living with hypertension (95%) and more than 1/5 (21%, precisely) had both diseases simultaneously. In addition, for those with Diabetes melittus, more than four fifths (82%) patients also had systemic hypertension. Women are the majority of the cases for both diseases, namely 63.2% for hypertension and 71 % for Diabetes melittus. Considering the age of the patient, both diseases had occurred more frequently among elders, although the prevalence of Diabetes melittus appears to have remained constant for those with 60 yrs and older. The most important risk factor for both diseases was sedentarism, as mentioned by 76 % and 69 % of those with hypertension and Dabetes melittus, respectively. Conclusions. It is needed to modify the form to collect data from HiperDia and also to increase the frequency of the monitoring of patients. Suggestions to Public Health Policies. It is suggested to include in the Hiperdia registration form, information about blood glucose levels and about the amputation of the lower extremities after three years for those enrolled in the program, in the case of Diabete mellitus. For the case of hypertension, information about the maintenance levels of the blood pressure control, and to add more detailed informations about the risk factors.
