Non-use of primary care routine consultations for individuals with hypertension.

Abstract:

:The objectives of this study were to identify, among individuals with hypertension, sociodemographic factors associated with non-use of routine medical appointments available in primary care and check if non-use of consultations interferes with noncompliance with pharmacotherapy, uncontrolled blood pressure and hospitalization. This is a cross-sectional study with random and stratified sampling. A total of 422 individuals living in the city of Maringá, Paraná, were interviewed. There were crude and adjusted analyses using logistic regression, estimating odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals. It was found that, in the six months preceding the interview, 47 (11.1%) individuals did not use routine appointments. Being male, nonwhite and using only public health services were associated with non-use of consultations. Most of those who did not use consultations also failed to comply with pharmacotherapy and presented dysregulated blood pressure. Healthcare professionals need to develop strategies in order to increase attendance of hypertensive individuals to medical appointments, giving priority to population groups of men, nonwhite individuals and those who use public health services. Greater use of consultations can assist in blood pressure control and reduce complications. :Os objetivos deste estudo foram identificar, entre pessoas com hipertensão arterial, os fatores sociodemográficos associados a não utilização de consultas médicas de rotina disponíveis na Atenção Básica e verificar se a não utilização das consultas interfere na não adesão à farmacoterapia, no descontrole pressórico e na hospitalização. Estudo transversal analítico com amostragem aleatória e estratificada. Foram entrevistadas 422 pessoas residentes no município de Maringá-PR. Realizaram-se análises brutas e ajustadas por meio de Regressão Logística, estimando-se Odds Ratio e intervalos de confiança de 95%. Constatou-se que, nos seis meses anteriores a entrevista, 47 pessoas não utilizaram consultas de rotina. Sexo masculino, cor da pele não branca e utilização apenas de serviços públicos de saúde se associaram a não utilização das consultas. A maioria que não utilizou as consultas, também não aderiu à farmacoterapia e apresentou descontrole pressórico. Profissionais de saúde necessitam desenvolver estratégias para aumentar a procura dos hipertensos às consultas médicas, priorizando grupos populacionais de homens, pessoas não brancas e que utilizam serviços públicos de saúde. A maior utilização das consultas poderá auxiliar no controle pressórico e reduzir complicações.
