| description | Coronary and / or cardiovascular risk is the probability that an individual develops coronary or cardiovascular disease in a specific period of time with high rates of morbidity and mortality in any stage of life. The current study aims to determine the cardiovascular risk in individuals 18 to 60 years old in the city of Tunja, Colombia, through a descriptive cross-sectional study with a qualitative approach. The sample studied was 456 people with a reliability of 95% and a margin of error of 5%, a non-probabilistic convenience sampling by quotas was taken into account. The results established for the studied population a cardiovascular risk of 22.4% (95% CI 18-25) as well as statistically significant associations between risk and sedentary variables (X2 4.87, p = 0.027) and index body mass (108.28 X2 p = 0.000). The research project allows concluding that there is a high frequency of sedentary lifestyle, low cardiovascular risk with greater frequency in women and an association between cardiovascular risk and body mass index in a group of individuals who were studied. |

El riesgo coronario y/o cardiovascular es la probabilidad que tiene un individuo de presentar enfermedad coronaria o cardiovascular, en un periodo de tiempo determinado, con alto índice de morbimortalidad en cualquier etapa de la vida. El presente estudio tuvo por objeto determinar el riesgo cardiovascular en un grupo de individuos de 18 a 60 años de la ciudad de Tunja, a través de un estudio de tipo descriptivo transversal, con enfoque cualitativo. La muestra correspondió a 456 individuos, con una confiabilidad del 95% y un error del 5%, se contó con un muestreo no probabilístico a conveniencia por cuotas. Los resultados establecieron para la población objeto de estudio un riesgo cardiovascular en 22,4% (IC 95% 18–25), así como asociaciones estadísticamente significativas entre el riesgo y las variables sedentarismo (X2 4,87, p= 0,027) e índice de masa corporal (X2 108,28 p=0,000). Los hallazgos permiten concluir que existe alta frecuencia de sedentarismo, bajo riesgo cardiovascular con mayor frecuencia en mujeres y una asociación entre el riesgo cardiovascular y el índice de masa corporal en el grupo de individuos estudiado.
