Resumo: The present study had as objective to verify the prevalence of the main degenerative chronic illnesses (hypertension, diabetes, arthropaties, cancer and arteriovenous illnesses) in users of a Family Health Unit (FHU) of the city of Jequié -BA. It was a cross-sectional study with a sample of 101 adults ?18 years old, registered and proportionally distributed among the seven micro areas of FHU, being 75 (74.0%) female. From the collected data in domicile and citizens’ given information by means of a questionnaire, the prevalence of chronic illnesses was calculated in its total and by sex. The differences between sexes were verified using the chi-square test and the Fisher accurate test, with a significance level of 5%. The age of the individuals varied from 18 to 88 years old (39.9±18.5 years old), being 57% with age of 18 to 39 years old, 83% with low schooling and 68% with active occupation. Amongst the participants of the study, 40% reported presence of some type of chronic illness. The percentages of people bearing hypertension, diabetes and arthropaties were 29%, 4% and 18%, respectively; thore was not any case of cancer and only 2% related arteriovenous illnesses. There were no statistical differences between the sexes in relation to the prevalence of any illness. New studies with associations between diverse variables are suggested, so that it might be possible to develop a better understanding of factors that tend to influence in the determination of degenerative chronic illnesses.

O desenho foi transversal em amostra de 101 adultos ? 18 anos de idade, cadastrados e distribuídos proporcionalmente entre as sete microáreas da USF, sendo 75 (74,0%) do sexo feminino. Com dados coletados em domicílio e informações prestadas pelos sujeitos a partir de um formulário, calculou-se a prevalência de doenças crônicas no total e por sexo. As diferenças entre sexo foram verificadas utilizando o teste do Qui-quadrado e o teste exato de Fisher, com nível de significância de 5%. A idade dos indivíduos variou entre 18 a 88 anos (39,9±18,5 anos), sendo 57% com idade compreendida entre 18 a 39 anos, 83% com baixa escolaridade e 68% com ocupação ativa. Dentre os participantes do estudo, 40% reportaram presença de algum tipo de doença crônica. Os percentuais de pessoas portadoras de hipertensão, diabetes e artropatias foram 29%, 4% e 18%, respectivamente; não houve caso de câncer e apenas 2% relataram doenças arteriovenosas. Não ocorreram diferenças estatísticas entre os sexos na prevalência de nenhuma doença. Recomendam-se novos estudos com associações entre diversas variáveis para que seja possível desenvolver uma melhor compreensão de fatores que tendem a influenciar na determinação das doenças crônicas degenerativas..Universidade de Fortaleza2012-01-04info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion"Peer-reviewed Article""Avaliado pelos pares""Avaliado pelos pares"application/pdfhttps://ojs.unifor.br/RBPS/article/view/100810.5020/1008Brazilian Journal in Health Promotion; Vol. 20 No. 2 (2007); 92-98Revista Brasileña en Promoción de la Salud; Vol. 20 Núm. 2 (2007); 92-98Revista Brasileira em Promoção da Saúde; v. 20 n. 2 (2007); 92-981806-1230reponame:Revista Brasileira em Promoção da Saúdeinstname:Universidade de Fortaleza (Unifor)instacron:UFORporhttps://ojs.unifor.br/RBPS/article/view/1008/2169Coqueiro, Raildo da SilvaNery, Adriana AlvesCruz, Zoraide VieiraSá, Cloud Kennedy Couto deinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2012-01-10T12:18:38Zoai:ojs.ojs.unifor.br:article/1008Revistahttps://periodicos.unifor.br/RBPS/oai1806-12301806-1222opendoar:2012-01-10T12:18:38Revista Brasileira em Promoção da Saúde - Universidade de Fortaleza (Unifor)false
