description Objective: to determine the prevalence and factors associated with high blood pressure (HTN) in adults who live at high altitude. Material and methods: observational, analytical, cross-sectional and prospective study. A sample of 843 people aged 18 or older was included; HBP was defined as a blood pressure value ≥ 140/90 mmHg. A survey was carried out using simple random sampling. Adjusted prevalence rates were estimated to determine associated factors. P< 0,05 was shown to be significant. Results: the median age was 53 years (IQR: 27); 520 (61,7%) were women; 307 (36,4%) were > 60 years old. A prevalence of HTN was found to be 19,6% (165). Between 40 and 49 years of age the prevalence was 14% and from 70 and older it was 41%. The incidence of new cases was 8,30 cases per 1000 people, 71,5% (118) received pharmacological treatment, of which 72,8% (86) were on monotherapy. HBP control was 70,9% (117). The factors positively associated with HTN were alcohol consumption (PR=1,65; 95%CI=1,09-2,49) and negatively associated with diabetes mellitus (PR=0,43;95%CI=0,30-0,61) and obesity (PR=0,69;95%CI=0,49-0,96) according to the multivariate analysis carried out adjusted for age and sex. Conclusion: the prevalence of HTN is high, which increases with increasing age and the factor favorably associated with HTN was alcohol consumption, while diabetes mellitus and obesity were negatively associated.

Materiales y métodos: Estudio observacional, analítico, transversal y prospectivo. Se incluyó una muestra de 843 personas de 18 a más años, se definió HTA con valor de la presión arterial > 140/90 mmHg. Se realizó una encuesta mediante un muestreo aleatorio simple. Se estimaron índices de prevalencia ajustados para determinar los factores asociados. Se consideró significativo un p < 0,05. Resultados: La mediana de la edad fue 53 años (RIC: 27); 520 (61,68%) fueron mujeres; 307 (36,41%) fueron > a 60 años. Se encontró una prevalencia de HTA del 19,6% (165). Entre los 40 y 49 años la prevalencia fue del 14% y de 70 a más años fue del 41%. La incidencia de nuevos casos fue de 8,30 casos por 1000 personas. El 71,5% (118) recibía tratamiento farmacológico, de los cuales, el 72,8% (86) estaba con monoterapia. El control de la HTA fue del 70,9% (117). Los factores asociados positivamente para HTA fueron el consumo de alcohol (RP= 1,65; IC95%= 1,09-2,49) y negativamente para diabetes mellitus (RP= 0,43; IC95%=0,30-0,61) y obesidad (RP= 0,69; IC95%=0,49 -0,96) según el análisis multivariado realizado ajustado a edad y sexo. Conclusión: La prevalencia de HTA es alta, que se incrementa con el aumento de la edad y el factor asociado favorablemente para HTA fue el consumo de alcohol, mientras que la diabetes mellitus y la obesidad fueron asociadas negativamente.Cuerpo Médico del Hospital Nacional Almanzor Aguinaga Asenjo2025-08-24info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersiontexttextoapplication/pdfhttps://cmhnaaa.org.pe/ojs/index.php/rcmhnaaa/article/view/252510.35434/rcmhnaaa.2025.182.2525Revista del Cuerpo Médico Hospital Nacional Almanzor Aguinaga Asenjo; Vol. 18 No. 2 (2025): Early PublicationRevista del Cuerpo Médico Hospital Nacional Almanzor Aguinaga Asenjo; Vol. 18 Núm. 2 (2025): Publicación Anticipada2227-47312225-510910.35434/rcmhnaaa.2025.182reponame:Revista del Cuerpo Médico Hospital Nacional Almanzor Aguinaga Asenjoinstname:Cuerpo Médico Hospital Nacional Almanzor Aguinaga Asenjoinstacron:HNAAAspahttps://cmhnaaa.org.pe/ojs/index.php/rcmhnaaa/article/view/2525/1077Derechos de autor 2025 Anibal Diaz-Lazo, Lesly Diaz-Meyzan , Maria Alanya-Hilario https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessoai:cmhnaaa_ojs_cmhnaaa.cmhnaaa.org.pe:article/25252025-07-07T16:25:44Z
