This was a cross-sectional study developed using a probabilistic sample of 297 nursing professionals in the municipal healthcare system of Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais State, Brazil, between September 2008 and January 2009. The aim was to analyze the association between exposure to night work and hypertension among nursing professionals. Exposure to night work was measured based on responses to the question: Do you work in the night shift? (never, rarely, sometimes, always). For the analysis, the categories were grouped as no (never) and yes (rarely, sometimes, always). Hypertension was identified through self-reporting of medical diagnosis of the disease or use of antihypertensive medication. Prevalence ratios (PR) for hypertension and their respective 95% confidence intervals (95% CI) were adjusted using Poisson’s multivariate regression technique. The participants were classified according to exposure to night work as no (75.8%) and yes (24.2%). Hypertension was diagnosed in 21.2%. Exposure to night work was associated independently with hypertension after multivariate adjustment of the data (Prevalence Ratio = 1.76; 95% CI = 1.01-3.11; p = 0.048). Therefore, our results should be taken into consideration in formulating public policies that involve health promotion among nursing professionals.
