Fatores de risco cardiovascular, saberes e práticas de cuidado de mulheres: possibilidade para rever hábitos

Abstract

Resumo Objetivo investigar fatores de risco para doenças cardiovasculares e compreender as práticas de cuidado de mulheres. Método paralelo convergente misto. A etapa quantitativa foi transversal descritiva com formulário abordando características demográficas, socioeconômicas, fatores de risco cardiovascular, hábitos de vida e saúde, participaram 289 mulheres e aplicou-se estatística descritiva. A etapa qualitativa foi fundamentada na pesquisa participativa, exploratória descritiva, mediante entrevista semiestruturada, técnica de criatividade e sensibilidade e narrativas, com 30 mulheres. Resultados identificaram-se fatores como sedentarismo (60,9%), uso do anticoncepcional (57,9%), estresse (60,6%), depressão (40,1%), obesidade (38,8%), hipertensão arterial (33,6%), consumo de bebida alcoólica (29,8%), cigarro (16,6%), dislipidemia (25,6%) e diabetes (10,0%). Quanto aos saberes e práticas de cuidado, as participantes mencionaram os fatores, porém algumas relataram realizar os cuidados, e outras não, mesmo reconhecendo os riscos. Assim, compartilharam a falta de tempo para realizar exercícios físicos, dificuldades para cuidar da alimentação e aderir ao tratamento anti-hipertensivo e, ainda, relataram sentirem-se estressadas. Conclusão e implicações para a prática identificaram-se fatores modificáveis e as mulheres possuíam conhecimento acerca destes, entretanto divergiam sobre os cuidados, demonstrando a importância de ações voltadas a essa população.

Health Needs and Nursing Care Practices for High-Risk Pregnant Women

“…From the pregnant women's narratives, three (3) thematic categories were extracted with their respective subcategories, namely: High-Risk Pregnancy Diagnosis with feelings linked to knowledge of the diagnosis as a subcategory.

The fear and fear of an unfavorable outcome can be felt within a pregnancy considered low risk, however it is heightened in the context of a high-risk pregnancy, as here it is considered a potential threat of death.…”

“…The meaning constructed by each woman during the pregnancy process directly influences her health as well as her participation in the self-care process, and may constitute a positive reinforcement event or an event that generates vulnerabilities. 3 Several studies report that women with high-risk pregnancies are vulnerable to frailty and emotional instability. In the prenatal period, vulnerabilities are usually not investigated, especially those related to subjective and social aspects, contributing to the lack of actions aimed at addressing them, even within the limits of individual practice.…”

Integrative and complementary practices in health, nurses’ profile and care provided to people with hypertension: a mixed study design
