Objective: The objective of this study was to determine if there is an association between hyperuricemia and essential arterial hypertension (HTA) in adult patients between 18 and 70 years old treated in the external internal medicine clinic of the Florencia de Mora hospital. Materials and methods: An observational case-control study was carried out on adult patients between 18 and 70 years of age treated in the external internal medicine clinic of the Florencia de Mora de EsSalud hospital between 2017-2022. The diagnosis of essential arterial hypertension was recorded, to later distinguish patients whose record reported a history of hyperuricemia. Results: The study included a total of 182 patients who were seen by outpatient consultation in the internal medicine service, 25.3% had essential arterial hypertension and hyperuricemia and 74.7% with essential arterial hypertension did not present hyperuricemia, while 13.2% presented hyperuricemia but no essential arterial hypertension and 86.8% had neither essential arterial hypertension nor hyperuricemia. When comparing our results, an OR 2.227 (95% CI 1.031-4.807) was obtained, with a significant association of (p 0.039). Conclusions: Hyperuricemia is associated with HTA and is a risk factor in adult patients between 18 and 70 years old seen in the external internal medicine clinic of the Florencia de Mora EsSalud hospital during 2017 to 2022
