The presence of modifiable risk factors like tobacco consumption increases cardiovascular and metabolic risk. AIMS: The purpose of this study was to identify the prevalence of metabolic syndrome and other cardiovascular risk factors in people with severe mental illness. This study also aimed to identify the prevalence of patients receiving treatment for any metabolic syndrome risk factor. METHOD: A cross-sectional descriptive study was performed. A total of 125 participants from two community mental health centers in Spain were recruited. RESULTS: More than half of the participants (58.4%) were active smokers. The prevalence of metabolic syndrome was 60%. A total of 16.8% received previous treatment for hypertension, 17.6% for hypertriglyceridemia, and 11.2% for diabetes. No differences were found between centers (22.7% vs. 18.7%, p = .9). CONCLUSIONS: The findings underscore the importance of monitoring the physical health of patients on antipsychotic therapy. The identification and management of cardiovascular and metabolic risks factors is an essential part of nursing care for people with severe mental illness. Mental health nurses are ideally positioned to carry out this task by performing physical health screening, health education, and lifestyle interventions.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/1078390319826686","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,2,9]],"date-time":"2019-02-09T05:48:41Z","timestamp":1549691321000},"page":"162-171","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":8,"title":["Metabolic Syndrome Screening in People With Severe Mental Illness: Results From Two Spanish Community Mental Health Centers"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"26","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7013-8636","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Sara","family":"Fern\u00e1ndez Guijarro","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Sara Fern\u00e1ndez Guijarro, RN, MHN, Ram\u00f3n y Cajal Hospital, Madrid, Spain"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Carolina","family":"Miguel Garc\u00eda","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Carolina Miguel Garc\u00eda, RN, MHN, University of Barcelona, Barcelona, Spain"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Edith","family":"Pomarol-Clotet","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Edith Pomarol-Clotet, MD, PhD, FIDMAG Hermanas Hospitalarias Research Foundation, Barcelona, Spain"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Elena Nunil\u00f3n","family":"Egea L\u00f3pez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Elena Nunil\u00f3n Egea L\u00f3pez, RN, MHN, Murcia Health Service, Murcia, Spain"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Maria Dolors","family":"Burjales Mart\u00ed","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Maria Dolors Burjales Mart\u00ed, PhD, RN, MHN, Rovira i Virgili University, Tarragona, Spain"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Maria Assumpta","family":"Rigol Cuadra","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Maria Assumpta Rigol Cuadra, PhD, RN, MHN, University of Barcelona, Barcelona, Spain"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2019,2,9]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-1078390319826686","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.eurpsy.2009.07.010"},{"key":"bibr2-1078390319826686","volume-title":"Recommendations for the monitoring and promotion of the physical health of patients with schizophrenia and other severe disorders","author":"Bernardo M.","year":"2014"},{"key":"bibr3-1078390319826686","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S1888-9891(08)72513-8"},{"key":"bibr4-1078390319826686","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/1471-244X-13-87"},{"key":"bibr5-1078390319826686","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1447-0349.2009.00595.x"},{"key":"bibr6-1078390319826686","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1176\/ps.2010.61.8.774"},{"key":"bibr7-1078390319826686","volume-title":"Specific attention program for serious mental illness","author":"CatSalut","year":"2003"},{"key":"bibr8-1078390319826686","volume-title":"Strategic plan for mental health 2010-2014","author":"Community of Madrid","year":"2010"},{"key":"bibr9-1078390319826686","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"303","DOI":"10.4321\/S0211-57352011000200009","volume":"31","author":"Cort\u00e9s B.","year":"2011","journal-title":"Revista de la Asociaci\u00f3n Espa\u00f1ola de Neuropsiquiatr\u00eda"},{"key":"bibr10-1078390319826686","volume-title":"Health promotion in people with severe mental disorder.
