dc.description.abstractThe purpose of our study was to understand the influence of physical activity (PA) in weight gain, blood glucose levels, blood pressure in pregnancy and parity. Cross-sectional evaluation analysis of 100 women, aged between17 to 42, from Santo Antonio General Hospital was done. PA was assessed using the Pregnancy Physical Activity Questionnaire (PPAQ). We found that levels of PA and total weight gain of pregnant women were not associated (p = 0.352), and there was no linear correlation between the total score for PA and blood glucose levels (p = 0.849 for fasting glucose levels and p = 0.438 for blood sugar levels after 50 g glucose). In addition PA and blood pressure values were also not correlated (p = 0.166 for systolic blood pressure; p = 0.233 for diastolic It was found a correlation between PA and parity (multiparous had higher levels of PA: p = 0.020). The statistical tests used were the Spearman’s ρ and chi-square (p<0.05). In this study we did not find associations among PA and the following variables: gain weight, blood glucose and blood pressure. Howev we saw that PA levels were higher in multiparous compared to primiparous.pt_PT
