Clinical-epidemiological profile of notified cases of patients with crohn's disease and ulcerative rectolitis in piaui

Introduction: inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) correspond to a group of immune-mediated chronic inflammatory diseases of the gastrointestinal tract of unknown causes on genetically predisposed individuals. In this group are heterogeneous diseases that affect the mucosa of the gastrointestinal tract, being more common Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. Material and Methods: this is a descriptive study of the sectional type, of documentary nature. By taking possession of clear norms and scientific rigor, data were collected from the Hospital Mortality System of the SUS (SIH/SUS) available in the SUS Information Department (DATASUS), tabulated by TABNET, regarding the place of hospitalization of the patient with ulcerative colitis and Cohn's disease (code K51 and K50 of the ICD-10) between 2018 and 2022. The variants used are color/race, sex, age group, ICD-10, year of hospitalization, deaths and mortality rate, FU, and area of residence of the patient diagnosed with IBD. RESULTS: in the period from 2018 to 2022, 602 cases of SUS hospital morbidity of the main diseases of the digestive system in the State of Piauí were confirmed, with an average of 120.4 cases/year. Of these, 314 are male and 288 are female. Regarding hospitalization for care character, 535 were emergency and only 67 elective. The years 2018, 2019 and 2022 presented the highest incidence coefficients of this series, respectively 4.15/100,000hab., 4.30/100,000hab. and 4.25/100,000han. When considering the age group as the analysis variable, the ages are in the interim of 1 and 80 years or more, a large part of the population was in the range of 30 and 39 years (125/20.76%) and 20 and 29 years (119/19.76%). Of the total cases reported according to race/color, it was demonstrated that the highest concentration was among browns with 371 (61.62%). Regarding the macro-region of the reported cases, 544 (90.36%) are from the Mid-North macro-region, 23 (3.82%) and in relation to the spatial distribution of the reported cases, Teresina (531/88.20%) and Parnaíba (14/2.32%) presented the highest number of cases in the time interval of the study according to place of intention. CONCLUSION: knowledge of the epidemiological and spatial profile of IBD can provide a broader basis and more elements to elucidate the natural history of the disease in the State, its main complications and therapeutic failures. On the whole, this information can support strategies to cope with the disease and minimize its impacts on the affected population.
