    (Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 1905-07-09) Acosta González, Ysabel Dolores; Gómez Gonzales, Walter Edgar
    Objectives: Determine the effectiveness of anthropometric parameters as predictors of cardiovascular risk profile in adults. Materials and Methods: Systematic Reviews are an observational and retrospective research design, which synthesizes the results of multiple primary investigations. They are an essential part of evidence-based nursing due to their rigorous methodology, identifying relevant studies to answer specific questions of clinical practice. Results: Of the total of ten articles analyzed, 90% affirm that anthropometric parameters predict cardiovascular risk. These articles were found in the following databases Pubmed, Medline, Elsevier, Scielo and Lilacs. Conclusions: The Anthropometric Parameters predicted the existence of three or more cardiovascular risk factors, both for adult men and adult women (elevated lipid profile, diabetes mellitus, arterial hypertension, smoking, among others).
