Abstract

AIM: Evaluating nutritional status, clinical profile and quality of life (QOL) of users on Psychosocial Care Center II (CAPS II), in Vitória da Conquista, Bahia. METHODS: A cross-sectional study was carried out with 120 users of CAPS II using a form containing closed questions about sociodemographic data, quality of life (QOL) and self-perception of health, as well as open-ened questions about referral morbidity. An anthropometric evaluation (weight, height and waist circumference) was performed to evaluate the nutritional status. The instrument SF-12 was used to assess QOL. The referred morbidity was categorized according to ICD-10. RESULTS: The average age was 39.8 ± 12.48 years, 64.5% of the participants were women, 55.8% were single and 71.7% were not retired. Regarding QOL, the summarized mental component presented a lower result when compared to the summarized physical component. Poor self-perception of health was reported by 70% of interviewees. The most prevalent disorders of mood disorder and schizophrenia and 57.1% of the users were overweight and obese and 65.5% of the participants had a change in the circumference-height relationship. CONCLUSION: Users of CAPS II revealed an important prevalence of overweight, central obesity, poor quality of life and poor self-perception of health. Understanding these issues made it extremely relevant to think about local policies of care and organization of the CAPS, with a greater interlocution with the primary care services of the municipalities, promoting integral care and health promotion.
