ABSTRACT
Introduction: chronic non-communicable diseases, including high blood pressure, affect the world’s population, with direct influence on their quality of life.Objective: to characterize the clinical and imaging findings of hypertensive patients admitted to “Dr. Juan Bruno Zayas Alfonso” General Teaching Hospital during the year 2016.
Methods: an observational, descriptive, longitudinal and retrospective study was conducted in hypertensive patients. The sample consisted of 64 patients, who underwent complementary humoral examinations, electrocardiograms and echocardiographic studies. Descriptive statistics was used.
Results: the age group between 60 and 69 years old (45,31 %) and male patients (56,25 %) predominated. In 59,37 % of the patients, the time of the evolution of the disease was not specified; and 78,12 % were in the third stage of the disease. Glomerular filtration decreased in 39,06 %, and 23,44 % showed elevated levels of creatinine. Left ventricular hypertrophy was the main electrocardiographic alteration, appearing in 50 % of the cases. Concentric and eccentric hypertrophies were the main echocardiographic alterations; each of them was present in 37,5 % of the patients.
Conclusions: older male adults were prone to develop high blood pressure, who showed advanced stages of the disease. Increased of creatinine and decrease of glomerular filtration were common. Patients presented left ventricular hypertrophy as an electrocardiographic finding, with patterns of concentric and eccentric hypertrophies on the echocardiogram.
