ABSTRACT

We carried out an observational, epidemiologic, analytic-transversal study (prevalence) to identify the prevalence and the factors associated to hypertension in persons aged less than 19 years old, in the municipality of Matanzas, in 2010. The universe was formed by all the patients aged less than 19 years old living in the urban regions of the before mentioned municipality and studying in the different levels of educational system. They were a total of 19 756 patients. The samplo was formed by 892 people, who applied a questionnaire. Data obtained were processed in the program EpiInfo 3.4.3 2007. For the data analysis we used measures of absolute and relative frequencies; we used the risk approach in the bi-variable analysis, with Odds Ration calculation and confidence intervals, considering it significant when the value 1 was not included. And the p value was less than 0.05. We also calculated the attributable risk when the bi-variable analysis was significant. The 8 variables significant in the bi-variable analysis, when submitted to the multivariable analysis showed themselves as true factors associated to the hypertensive patients in the pediatric age through the model of logic regression. Familiar pathologic antecedent of arterial hypertension, nutritional status (obese or overweight), glomerulopathies, repetitive urinary sepsis and obstructive uropathies, and also headache and epistaxis were present as symptoms associated to hypertension at the pediatric age.
