Resumo
Introdução: O Estudo de Riscos Cardiovasculares em Adolescentes (ERICA) é um estudo
multicêntrico nacional cujo objetivo é traçar o perfil de risco cardiovascular, incluindo obesidade, alterações
do metabolismo lipídico, glicídico e da pressão arterial de cerca de 75 mil adolescentes brasileiros. Objetivo:
Descrever o instrumento desenvolvido para coleta de dados de recordatório alimentar de 24 horas (REC24h)
no ERICA e relatar os resultados obtidos no estudo piloto. Métodos: Para o desenvolvimento do programa
computacional que norteou a entrevista para aplicação do REC24h utilizou‐se a técnica denominada Multiple
Pass Method. O REC24h‐ERICA utiliza a base de dados composta por 1.626 itens alimentares incluindo as
formas de preparo e as unidades de medidas caseiras pré‐definidas. Os dados de recordatório alimentar são
coletados através de entrevista e digitados diretamente no REC24h‐ERICA, evitando assim o uso de papel.
Resultados: O estudo piloto incluiu 1.367 adolescentes, dos quais 1.047 (77%) responderam ao REC24h.
Os pesquisadores não encontraram dificuldades para uso do programa, a duração média das entrevistas foi
de 20 minutos e foram inseridos 50 alimentos novos pelos entrevistadores de campo. Conclusão: O programa
desenvolvido mostrou‐se adequado para uso em grandes estudos populacionais, mesmo em um país como o
Brasil, onde existe grande diversidade de padrões alimentares.
Introduction: The Study of Cardiovascular Risk in Adolescents (ERICA) is a national multicenter study whose purpose is to describe the cardiovascular risk profile, including obesity, changes in lipid and glucose metabolism, and blood pressure, of about 75,000 Brazilian adolescents. Objective: To describe the development of a tool for data collection of 24-hour food recall (REC24h) in ERICA and to report its performance in the pilot study. Methods: The Multiple Pass Method was used for the development of the computer program that guides REC24h interview. REC24h– ERICA uses a database composed of 1,626 food items including preparation methods and units of predefined portion sizes. Food consumption data are obtained through interviews and entered directly into REC24h–ERICA, avoiding the use of paper. Results: The pilot study included 1,367 adolescents, of which 1,047 (77%) responded to REC24h. The researchers did not report difficulties in program use, the average duration of interviews was 20 minutes and the interviewers inserted 50 new food items. Conclusion: The program developed was proven suitable for use in large- population studies, even in a country like Brazil, where there is great diversity in eating habits.
