Methods:A retrospective cross-sectional study was carried out at the Hospital Geral César Cals(César Cals General Hospital), a tertiary care center of the Sistema Único de Saúde - SUS(Brazil’s National Health System) in Fortaleza, Ceará, Brazil. The study included 1,865pregnant women admitted with HDP from January 2006 to December 2013 regardless ofage, education, marital status, place of birth, place of residence and outcome (discharge,death and ongoing pregnancy). Results: Pregnant women were predominantly aged 17-35years (n=1484, 79.6%), mixed-race (n=1464, 78.5%), single (n= 775, 41.6%), housewives(n=1269, 68.0%), lived in Fortaleza (n=1198, 64.3%) and had complete elementary education(n=766, 41%). Overweight (n= 1408, 75.4%), first pregnancy (n=827, 44.3%) and multiparity(n=686, 36.7%) were the main risk factors for HDP. Regarding fetal status, 30.9% (n=576)were preterm. The main HDP complications were: HELLP syndrome (n=60, 3.2%), bleedingdisorders (n=15, 0.8%) and acute respiratory failure (n=13, 0.6%). Conclusion: The pregnantwomen assessed presented risk factors for HDP, reinforcing the idea that the health status andthe disease and health process are directly influenced by socioeconomic and demographiccharacteristics of the population. 2015 artículo científico 1806-1222 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=40846584017 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=408 Revista Brasileira em Promoção da Saúde application/pdf Universidade de Fortaleza Revista Brasileira em Promoção da Saúde (Brasil) Num.4 Vol.28 |
