Abstract

This documental, descriptive and epidemiological study aimed to evaluate the quality of the record taking in the registration forms of users of the Hypertensives and Diabetics Registration and Monitoring System (known in Portuguese as HIPERDIA) in a municipality in the state of Rio Grande do Sul (RS), Brazil. The data relating to 637 records from 17 micro-areas were compiled, for the period August 2010 – December 2011 and were analyzed using the BIOESTAT® program, version 4.0. Among the results, the following stand out: higher prevalence of hypertensives; smoking, sedentarism and overweight/obesity as risk factors; and acute myocardial infarction, cerebrovascular accidents and kidney disease as complications of the diseases. The significant failure to fill out areas which are obligatory and of epidemiological interest may hinder better characterization of the service users and the planning of preventive actions and reorganization of the health services.
