ItemPROTEÍNA C REACTIVA ULTRASENSIBLE Y FACTORES DE RIESGOS ASOCIADOS A ENFERMEDADES CARDIOVASCULARES EN CHOFERES DE LA CIUDAD DE PORTOVIEJO(Universidad Técnica de Manabí, 2018) ALFONZO ALCÍVAR, CARLA CRISTINA ; CAVAL LUCAS, JULIANA JACQUELINE ; ARTEAGA QUIROZ, MIGUEL ÁNGELCardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death in the world. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), for this reason the objective of this work was to quantify High sensitivity C Reactive Protein (hsCRP) for the detection of cardiovascular risk in taxi drivers from 35 years old Portoviejo city. The methodology of the present investigation was cross-sectional, descriptive, explanatory, bibliographic, experimental, prospective, the instrument and technique that was used to collect information, was a survey about risk factors associated with cardiovascular diseases, after this the sampling of the drivers for their respective biochemical laboratory analysis. The results of the study indicated that in the laboratory analysis it was found that 56.3% of the sample studied had low levels of hsCRP, 30% had medium risk and 16.7% high risk. In the current problem is common in people who suffer very high loads of stress, as in the present case, taxi drivers are highly exposed to environmental pollution from vehicle smoke, long hours to get more income, which demands time to be seated, consumption of fast foods high in fat and synthetic beverages, for this reason the analysis of levels of hsCRP, is fundamental as a predictor for the detection of cardiovascular diseases since they are silent pathologies and therefore the patient he does not realize that he suffers, also found by means of the cardiovascular risk charts Framingham and D'Agostino would be very useful for the prevention to develop cardiovascular diseases
