Abstract

To evaluate the prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors and their associations with sociodemographic characteristics in nursing professionals. A cross-sectional, quantitative study with professionals of the Nursing team who worked in the cardiology units of a large- sized university hospital. The risk factors evaluated were: systemic arterial hypertension, diabetes mellitus, dyslipidemia, smoking, alcoholism, sedentary behavior, obesity, excessive daytime sleepiness, depression, stress and risk of obstructive sleep apnea. One hundred twenty-two professionals were evaluated, where sedentary behavior, followed by excessive daytime sleepiness, obesity and depression were the most prevalent risk factors. Age and length of employment were the variables most associated with the analyzed risk factors. In the face of the high prevalence of risk factors it is imperative health promotion interventions as an incentive to physical activity and adequacy to a healthy diet that in addition to reducing cardiovascular risk may attenuate the prevalence of other risk factors.
