Hipertrofia ventricular izquierda en la población hipertensa española. Estudio ERIC-HTA

Abstract

Introduccion y objetivos El objetivo del presente estudio es evaluar la prevalencia de hipertrofia del ventriculo izquierdo (HVI) en el electrocardiograma y el perfil epidemiologico en pacientes hipertensos atendidos en atencion primaria. Pacientes y metodo Estudio transversal, multicentrico, realizado en 15.798 pacientes hipertensos ≥ 55 anos de centros de atencion primaria. Se midio la presion arterial y se recogieron los antecedentes cardiovasculares de la historia clinica de los pacientes. La HVI se evaluo segun los criterios de Cornell. Resultados Se evaluo a 15.798 pacientes (edad media, 68,0 anos; 55,3% mujeres; 30,4% diabeticos). El 20,3% presento HVI en el electrocardiograma. La prevalencia fue mayor en varones, diabeticos, fumadores, pacientes con presion arterial no controlada y pacientes con enfermedad renal o con cualquier antecedente de enfermedad cardiovascular. Respecto a los pacientes sin HVI, los pacientes con HVI eran de edad mas avanzada, habia un mayor porcentaje de varones, y mas prevalencia de diabetes mellitus (el 40,5 frente al 27,8%), enfermedad renal (el 34,2 frente al 26,9%) y enfermedad cardiovascular (el 52,1 frente al 20,2%). En el analisis multivariante, la HVI se asocio, de forma independiente, con una edad mas avanzada, el sexo masculino, la diabetes, el tabaquismo, la ausencia de control de la presion arterial, y la presencia de enfermedad cardiovascular y renal. El porcentaje de pacientes que cumplian objetivos de control de presion arterial fue menor entre los pacientes con HVI respecto a aquellos sin HVI. Conclusiones La prevalencia de HVI en el electrocardiograma es elevada y se asocia con una mayor prevalencia de diabetes, y enfermedad renal y cardiovascular, ademas de un control de la presion arterial deficiente.
