[Risk factors in patients with arterial hypertension].
The aim of this research was to verify the habits related to the risk factors of one population with arterial hypertension. Seventy individuals were interviewed. Authors found that the majority do not practice any kind of physical exercise, they do not have leisure activities and need education programs to acquire these habits. There are gaps in information, because they have their own experience as a reference, in spite of the orientations they received from several professionals.
