    Introdução e objetivo: Modificações no estilo de vida e acompanhamento multiprofissional são necessários para a prevenção e tratamento da hipertensão arterial sistêmica e o estudo objetivou avaliar o perfil e o estado nutricional de pacientes hipertensos atendidos em um ambulatório de nutrição do sul do Brasil, entre 2007 e 2014. Materiais e métodos: Análise de dados de prontuários de pacientes hipertensos com idade ≥ 18 anos, referentes à primeira e última consulta no período, para avaliar a porcentagem de variação de peso e o perfil dos pacientes. Resultados: A maioria dos hipertensos avaliados é do sexo feminino (82,8%), está acima do peso ideal (93%), é sedentário (57,8%) e perdeu peso (78,9%) durante o tratamento no período avaliado. Discussão: Os estudos mostram que a perda de peso reduz sinais e sintomas da hipertensão arterial sistêmica e melhora a qualidade de vida em geral e esta redução de peso é muito importante, já que a obesidade é um dos fatores de risco para o surgimento de doenças crônicas não transmissíveis. Conclusão: Os pacientes avaliados mostraram adesão parcial ao tratamento nutricional, além de alta prevalência de sedentarismo e obesidade. Devido à importância da alimentação saudável e da prática de exercícios físicos regulares, faz-se necessário um acompanhamento destes pacientes a fim de reduzir as complicações desta doença. ASTRACT Profile and nutritional status in hypertensive patients treated in an outpatient clinic of nutrition in Southern BrazilIntroduction and objective: Changes in life style and multidisciplinary monitoring are necessary for the prevention and treatment of hypertension and the study aimed to evaluate the profile and the nutritional status of hypertensive patients treated in outpatient nutrition in southern Rio Grande do Sul, between 2007 and 2014.
