Distribuição das internações hospitalares por doenças cardiovasculares e respiratórias na população brasileira

Abstract

Introduction: Chronic non-communicable diseases are responsible for millions of hospital admissions and deaths worldwide. Control and coping were developed by the world health organization and several countries, including Brazil. Objective: To analyze the distribution of hospital admissions and deaths in the Brazilian population due to cardiovascular and respiratory diseases between the years 2008 and 2019. Methods: Longitudinal descriptive study with secondary data from the SUS Hospital Information System (SIH / SUS). Individuals aged 20 to over 80 years were grouped according to region, sex and age group. The data were formed using the GraphPad Prism software versions 6.0 and the level of significance was set at 5%. Results: There were 13,380,119 hospital admissions for cardiovascular diseases (CVD) between 2008 and 2019, being more prevalent in males (p = 0.632), and the main diagnosis of heart failure (20.68%). In addition, a higher rate of hospitalization was observed in the population between 50 and 79 years of age (p <0.0001) and in the southern region (p <0.0001). 1,058,953 hospital deaths from CVD were observed, with a mortality rate of 7.91 / 100 hospitalizations. The respiratory diseases (RD), 8,448,442 hospital admissions were seen between 2008 and 2019, with a higher incidence in males (p = 0.387), and the main diagnosis of pneumonia (52.80%). There was still a higher incidence in the age group of 70 and 79 years (p <0.0001) and a higher rate of hospitalization in the southern region (p <0.0001). There were 991,937 deaths from RD and a mortality rate of 11.74 / 100 hospitalizations. Conclusion: Cardiovascular and respiratory diseases actively affect a Brazilian population, representing the average hospital admission rate of 841/100 thousand inhabitants and 515.1 / 100 thousand inhabitants, respectively. There was a 10% reduction in the rate of hospitalization for CVD and a 17% reduction in RD. In addition to the progressive increase with age, they mainly affect the south and southeast regions.
