Resumo: In Brazil, the Food and Nutrition Surveillance System (SISVAN) is the main tool in collecting and consolidating information on the nutritional status and the feeding habits of the population encompassed by primary health care services of the country. This study explores data from SISVAN to analyze the system’s potential as a tool for monitoring the nutritional status of children and adolescents in the country. We seek to evaluate the evolution of the system’s coverage rate in relation to the population regarding different age groups and geographic regions, how this coverage rate varies according to the characteristics of the Brazilian municipalities, and to what extent the results from SISVAN differ from representative sample surveys of the population. We present four main results. First, we documented that from 2008 to 2019, SISVAN significantly expanded its coverage; with a significant decrease, however, in 2020, reaching levels similar to those at the beginning of the series. Second, our results indicate that coverage is not homogeneous, being higher in the North and Northeast regions and among underage children. Third, there is a systematic association between the characteristics of the municipalities and the level of coverage of the system. Finally, SISVAN results differ from those presented by surveys representative of the general population. Jointly, the results of this study point to the need to refine the nutritional surveillance instruments on children and adolescents in Brazil.

Este trabajo analiza, a partir de los datos de SISVAN, el potencial del sistema como una herramienta de seguimiento del estado nutricional de niños y adolescentes del país. Se pretende evaluar la evolución de la tasa de cobertura del sistema con relación a la población según diferentes grupos de edad y regiones geográficas, cómo varía esta tasa de cobertura según las características de los municipios brasileños y en qué medida los resultados de SISVAN se diferencian de las encuestas por muestreo representativas de la población. Se presentan cuatro resultados principales. Primero, entre 2008 y 2019, SISVAN amplió significativamente su cobertura, pero en 2020 hubo un significativo descenso a niveles similares a los del inicio de la serie. Segundo, los resultados indican que la cobertura no es homogénea, y hay una mayor cobertura en las regiones Norte y Nordeste del país, entre los niños más pequeños. Tercero, existe una asociación sistemática entre las características de los municipios y el nivel de cobertura del sistema. Cuarto, los resultados de SISVAN se diferencian de los presentados en las encuestas representativas de la población general. Los resultados de este estudio apuntan que es necesario mejorar las herramientas de vigilancia nutricional de niños y adolescentes en Brasil.No Brasil, o Sistema de Vigilância Alimentar e Nutricional (SISVAN) é a ferramenta central para coletar e consolidar informações sobre o estado nutricional e alimentação da população atendida pelos serviços de atenção básica no país. Este trabalho explora dados do SISVAN com o objetivo de analisar o potencial do sistema como ferramenta de monitoramento do estado nutricional de crianças e adolescentes no país. Procura-se avaliar a evolução da taxa de cobertura do sistema em relação à população para diferentes faixas etárias e regiões geográficas, como essa taxa de cobertura varia conforme as características dos municípios brasileiros e em que medida os resultados provenientes do SISVAN diferem de pesquisas amostrais representativas da população. Apresentamos quatro principais resultados. Primeiro, documentamos que, entre 2008 e 2019, o SISVAN expandiu significativamente a sua cobertura, mas houve uma queda expressiva em 2020 até níveis similares aos do início da série. Segundo, nossos resultados apontam que a cobertura não é homogênea, sendo maior nas regiões Norte e Nordeste e entre crianças de menor idade. Terceiro, existe uma associação sistemática entre características dos municípios e o nível de cobertura do sistema. Por último, os resultados do SISVAN divergem dos apresentados por pesquisas representativas da população geral. Em conjunto, os resultados deste estudo apontam para a necessidade de refinar os instrumentos de vigilância nutricional sobre crianças e adolescentes no Brasil.Reports in Public HealthCadernos de Saúde Pública2023-07-02info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersiontext/xmlapplication/pdfhttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/article/view/8297Reports in Public Health; Vol. 39 No. 1 (2023): JanuaryCadernos de Saúde Pública; v. 39 n. 1 (2023): Janeiro1678-44640102-311Xreponame:Cadernos de Saúde Públicainstname:Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (FIOCRUZ)instacron:FIOCRUZporhttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/article/view/8297/18532https://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/article/view/8297/18533Copyright (c) 2023 Cadernos de Saúde Públicainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessMrejen, MatíasVitória Cruz, MariaRosa, Leonardo2023-07-02T22:04:02Zoai:ojs.teste-cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br:article/8297Revistahttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csphttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/oaicadernos@ensp.fiocruz.br||cadernos@ensp.fiocruz.br1678-44640102-311Xopendoar:2024-03-06T13:09:28.491124Cadernos de Saúde Pública - Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (FIOCRUZ)true
