diagnosis and treatment are often overlooked. the work of
primary and secondary prevention is very important to avoid the occurrence
of target organ damage, as well as minimizing the social and
economics of these pathologies. The objective of the present work was to trace the
socio-epidemiological profile of the population assisted by the HIPERDIA program in
Our Lady of Perpetual Help UBS in Carnaúba dos Dantas-RN. A
data collection was carried out using a form previously
elaborated by the doctor, nurse and community health agents to
contemplate data such as medications used, evolution of exams

population at high risk of cardiovascular disease and high prevalence
of non-adherence to the proposed treatment with regard to changes in lifestyle
of life, as evidenced by the results. In view of the profile of
