Resumen
La presente investigación estuvo orientada a determinar los factores de riesgos para la Hipertensión Arterial en los trabajadores de la SOBUSA. La investigación se ubica dentro de los estudios descriptivos y de campo, con un diseño no experimental. La población objeto a estudio estuvo conformada por trescientos ochenta (180) trabajadores. La muestra se conformó con el 27% de la población es decir, 50 trabajadores de las diversas áreas de la institución objeto de estudio, con un tipo de muestreo probabilístico. El método de recolectar los datos fue la encuesta y como instrumento el cuestionario, el cual se estructuró en dos partes: Parte I Factores de Riesgo no Modificables y la Parte ll Factores de Riesgo Modificables, conformado por 30 ítems bajo la escala dicotómica (SI-NO). Los resultados evidencian que los trabajadores de la Industria presentan factores de riesgos tanto no modificables como modificables que los hacen vulnerables a padecer Hipertensión Arterial al poseer uno o más de un factor de riesgo que aumenta la probabilidad de padecerla enfermedad hipertensiva. Por tal, los investigadores recomiendan realizar campañas educativas fundamentadas en la promoción y mantenimiento, estilos y conductas saludables tendientes a controlar los factores de riesgo.
The present investigation was designed to determine the risk factors for high blood pressure in SOBUSA workers. The research is located within the descriptive and field studies with a experimental design. The population under study consisted of three hundred and eighty (180) workers. The sample consisted of 30% of the population is one hundred fourteen (114) workers in the various areas of the institution under study, with a type of probability sampling. The method of collecting the data was the survey and the questionnaire as a tool, which was structured in two parts: Part I is not Modifiable Risk Factors and Part Il Modifiable Risk Factors, comprised by 30 items under the dichotomous scale (YES-NO). The results show that workers in the industry have both risk factors as modificable not that make them vulnerable to suffer from hypertension to possess one or more of a risk factor that increases the probability of suffering from hypertensive disease. For this, the researchers recommend educational campaigns grounded in the promotion and maintenance, styles, and healthy behaviors aimed at controlling risk factors.
