Resumo: It is a descriptive, exploratory and transversal research which aimed to identify the profile of truck drivers that travel on the BR-381 regarding the modifiable risk factors and non-modifiable for the development of hypertension. An research instrument was used to collect and record demographics data, risk factors and blood pressure levels of 257 drivers. Then, data was tabulated and expressed in percentage and absolute frequency. Their ages ranged from 30 to 39 years, 54.1% reported having relatives working hypertension; 49.4% and 23.7% reported using alcohol and tobacco, respectively. Regarding eating habits, 39.3% reported eating processed and fresh foods, 13.2% fried meals, and 26.8% reported adding salt to food after preparation. The risk factors identified may foster the development of hypertension, making it necessary to carry out health actions for this population group.

Se ha utilizado como instrumento para recoger y registrar los datos demográficos, factores de riesgo y niveles de presión de 257 conductores; los datos fueron tabulados y expresos en frecuencia absoluta y porcentaje. La franja etaria ha variado entre 30 y 39 años; 54,1% referieron poseer parientes directos hipertensos; 49,4% y 23,7% referieron uso de bebida alcohólica y tabaco, respectivamente. Acerca de los hábitos alimentares, 39,3% informaron ingerir alimentos procesados e in natura y 13,2% alimentos freídos; 26,8% referieron acrecentar sal a la alimentacion depués de lista. Los factores de riesgo identificados pueden favorecer el desarrollo de la hipertensión arterial, haciendose necesaria la realización de acciones de salud para ese grupo de la población.Pesquisa descritiva-exploratória, de delineamento transversal, que teve como objetivo identificar o perfil dos motoristas caminhoneiros que trafegam na BR-381 quanto aos fatores de riscos modificáveis e não modificáveis para o desenvolvimento da hipertensão arterial. Utilizou-se instrumento para coleta e registro de dados demográficos, fatores de risco e níveis pressóricos de 257 motoristas; os dados foram tabulados e expressos em frequência absoluta e percentagem. A faixa etária variou entre 30 a 39 anos; 54,1% relataram possuir parentes diretos hipertensos; 49,4% e 23,7% relataram uso bebida alcoólica e tabaco, respectivamente. Em relação aos hábitos alimentares, 39,3% informaram ingerir alimentos processados e in natura e 13,2% alimentos fritos; 26,8% relataram acrescentar sal à alimentação depois de preparada. Os fatores de risco identificados podem favorecer o desenvolvimento da hipertensão arterial, fazendo-se necessária a realização de ações de saúde para esse grupo da população.Universidade Federal do ParanáGuedes, Helisamara MotaBrum, Kátia de ArêdesCosta, Patrícia AndradeAlmeida, Martha Elisa Ferreira de2010-12-24info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.ufpr.br/cogitare/article/view/2036110.5380/ce.v15i4.20361Cogitare Enfermagem; v. 15, n. 4 (2010)Cogitare Enfermagem; v. 15, n. 4 (2010)Cogitare Enfermagem; v. 15, n. 4 (2010)2176-91331414-853610.5380/ce.v15i4reponame:Cogitare Enfermagem (Online)instname:Universidade Federal do Paraná (UFPR)instacron:UFPRporhttps://revistas.ufpr.br/cogitare/article/view/20361/13522info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2013-10-02T20:08:55Zoai:revistas.ufpr.br:article/20361Revistahttps://revistas.ufpr.br/cogitare/indexPUBhttps://revistas.ufpr.br/cogitare/oaicogitare@ufpr.br2176-91331414-8536opendoar:2013-10-02T20:08:55Cogitare Enfermagem (Online) - Universidade Federal do Paraná (UFPR)false
