Intervenção programada da equipe interprofissional da estratégia de saúde da família em pacientes hipertensos

Abstract

Introduction: Systemic arterial hypertension consists of elevated blood pressure levels, considering systolic ≥ 140 mmHg and/or diastolic ≥ 90 mmHg. Such a continuous increase can cause serious damage to the cardiovascular system. In the population attached to the family health team of Major José Tenório de Boca da Mata - AL, this problem appears to be relevant, given the low adherence to the proposed therapies, requiring intervention from the interprofessional team. Objective: To establish a scheduled home intervention routine by the interprofessional team for patients diagnosed with SAH, emphasizing the reduction of the risk of hypertensive crises and target organ damage. Methodology: Situational Strategic Planning was used to quickly estimate the problems observed and define the priority problem, critical nodes and necessary actions. Intervention: The formation of operative groups, regularization of periodic consultations, nutritional, physical and psychological educational support will be carried out, in addition to scheduled blood pressure checks at home, including activities that can be implemented with low-cost and high-resolution technologies. Conclusion: Organizing the work process and scheduling extramural activities can reduce hypertensive crises and damage to target organs, enabling a reduction in hospitalizations and work disabilities.
