Resumo:
Este estudo objetivou verificar as concepções dos hipertensos os fatores de risco e suas vivências quanto ao aumento da pressão em um Centro de Referência em Doenças Cardiovasculares na cidade do Salvador-BA. Foram entrevistadas 33 pessoas hipertensas. Trata-se de um estudo descritivo, de cunho qualitativo, amparado na análise do discurso proposta por Foucault. Quanto aos conceitos de fatores de risco, percebeu-se que foram confundidos com as complicações da hipertensão, entretanto, quando a abordagem mudou de “fatores de risco” para “fatores que podem aumentar a pressão”, as respostas foram mais coerentes e condiziam com os fatores de risco pontuados pelas VI Diretrizes Brasileiras de Hipertensão. Além disso, notou-se através dos discursos que a percepção de aumento da pressão está diretamente ligada às vivências e à história de vida de cada um. Sendo assim, é preciso que as orientações sejam transmitidas de forma mais clara possível para que o entendimento possa servir de elemento facilitador para o controle da doença. Este estudo trouxe como ganhos a percepção dos fatores de risco na visão dessas pessoas de modo a fornecer pistas para a equipe de saúde interdisciplinar no intuito de promover o cuidado à saúde pautado nas vivências e no contexto socioeconômico e cultural nos quais estão inseridos.

Abstract:
The present paper had the purpose of verifying the conceptions of hypertensive people in relation to the risk factors and their experiences with higher blood pressure in a Reference Center in Cardiovascular Diseases, in the city of Salvador. Interviews were made with 33 hypertensive people. This is a descriptive study, of a qualitative nature, supported by the discourse analysis proposed by Foucault. With reference to risk factor concepts, it was observed that these were confused with hypertension complications, nevertheless, when the approach changed from “risk factors” to “factors that can increase blood pressure”, it was noted that the answers were more coherent with the risk factors classified by the VI Brazilian Policies on Hypertension. Furthermore, it was also observed through the discourses that the perception of increase in blood pressure is directly related to experiences. Therefore, it is necessary that the guidance be transmitted as clearly as possible in order for the understanding to become an important facilitator for controlling the illness. This paper permitted the perception of the risk factors in the vision of these people in such a manner as to supply clues for the interdisciplinary health team to promote health-care based on the experiences and social-economic and cultural context in which these people are included.
