Resumo: Objective: to analyze depressive symptoms and its associated factors, the use of antidepressants and the presence of a diagnosis of depression in the elderly. Methods: cross-sectional study with 248 elderly people attended in Basic Health Units using the Geriatric Depression Scale - Short Form. A chi-square test, the odds ratio and a binary logistic regression were used to analyze the data. Results: depressive symptoms were identified in 32.7% of the elderly, 25.4% with scores indicative of mild depression and 7.3% of severe depression. Physical activity and comorbidities were the factors associated with the presence of depressive symptoms. Among the elderly, 22.2% presented a previous diagnosis of depression and 17.0% of them used antidepressants. Conclusion: depressive symptoms were associated with physical inactivity and comorbidities. Fewer than half of the elderly with indicatives of severe depression used antidepressants. The report of a previous diagnosis of depression was more frequent than the indicatives of severe depression.

Para análise dos dados, foi realizado o teste do Qui-quadrado, a razão de chances e a regressão logística binária. Resultados: os sintomas depressivos apareceram em 32,7% dos idosos, 25,4% com indicativo de depressão leve e 7,3% de depressão grave. A atividade física e as comorbidades foram os fatores associados à presença dos sintomas depressivos. Apresentaram diagnóstico prévio de depressão 22,2% dos idosos e 17,0% utilizavam antidepressivo.

O relato de diagnóstico anterior de depressão foi maior que o indicativo de depressão grave.Rev Rene2017-12-27T18:03:11Z2017-12-27T18:03:11Z2017-11info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfHAJJAR, R. et al.
