METHODS: An observational, descriptive, cross-sectional study in a sample of 33 people aged 40 to 80 years, both genders, who were registered in HIPERDIA of that health center and selected randomly using their registration number. A questionnaire on biosocial characteristics and life habits was applied. The values for Blood Pressure (aneroid sphygmomanometer Diasyst® and stethoscope Littmann-Cardiology II®), Body Mass Index (anthropometric balance with stadiometer Fillizola®) and Waist Circunference (inelastic tape measure) were registered. A descriptive statistical analysis was conducted using the Bioestat® 4.0 and the Microsoft® Excel 2007 programs. RESULTS: It was observed that the majority (40%) of the patients aged 61 to 70 years, 82% were women; race “mulata” (46%); wage income of 1 to 2 minimum wages (61%); incomplete elementary school (52%), occupation “home care”(55%); majority of non-smokers (94%), non-drinkers (85%), sedentary (64%), no familiar antecedent of SAH (52%); no comorbidities (61%); all the patients have used hypotensive medicine; pressure level controlled in the majority of the patients (systolic blood pressure - 55%; diastolic blood pressure – 67%); high percentage of general obesity and/or overweight (82%) and central obesity (men-50%; women -93%). CONCLUSION: The studied sample was characterized predominantly by: women; aged 61 to 70 years; “mulatos”; low schooling level and wage income; low rate of: alcoholism, smoking, practice of physical exercise, comorbidities and familiar antecedents of the disease; high rate of overweight/obesity; pressure level controlled, although a high number of patients had the blood pressure uncontrolled.
