Resumo: It's an epidemiological inquiry about leprosy in Jequitinhonha Valley, Minas Gerais state. The study was conducted to verify if the detection decrease in the illness taxes from 1998 to 2002 were due to operational problems in endemic disease control measurements or to transmission force loss. That's one of the greatest trend analysis of the endemic disease in Brazil. Data from citizens of 51 cities of the Jequitinhonha Valley were collected from leprosy notification cases records from1998 to 2002. It was found detection taxes decrease, multibacillary clinical forms prevalence, low ratios of discovered cases from contact examination and high percentage of pacients with some disability. Epidemiologic and operational indicators suggested an expansion of the endemia, although detection taxes decrease in last years. These factors show the necessity of disease control strategies implementation.

Esta questão constitui um dos principais problemas que se interpõem na análise de tendência da endemia no Brasil. Trata-se de um estudo epidemiológico configurado como ecológico. Foram coletados dados das Fichas de Notificação de Casos de Hanseníase, do período 1998-2002, de residentes dos 51 municípios que compõem oVale do Jequitinhonha. Observou-se uma queda nas taxas de detecção, o predomínio das formas clínicas multibacilares, uma baixa proporção de casos descobertos pelo exame de contatos e altos percentuais de pacientes diagnosticados com alguma incapacidade física. Apesar de verificar-se uma queda nas taxas de detecção nos últimos anos, outros indicadores epidemiológicos e operacionais trabalhados sugerem a expansão da endemia e apontam para a necessidade de intensificação das estratégias de controle da doença.Instituto Lauro de Souza Lima da Secretaria de Estado da Saúde de São Paulo2004-11-30info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionAvaliado pelos paresapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.saude.sp.gov.br/hansenologia/article/view/3638110.47878/hi.2004.v29.36381Hansenologia Internationalis: leprosy and other infectious diseases; Vol. 29 No. 2 (2004); 118-123Hansenologia Internationalis: hanseníase e outras doenças infecciosas; v. 29 n. 2 (2004); 118-1231982-5161reponame:Hansenologia Internationalis (Online)instname:Instituto Lauro de Souza Lima (ILSL)instacron:ILSLporhttps://periodicos.saude.sp.gov.br/hansenologia/article/view/36381/34651https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessLana, Francisco Carlos FélixAmaral, Evaldo PinheiroFranco, Marcela SilvérioLanza, Fernanda Moura2023-08-31T19:10:53Zoai:ojs.periodicos.saude.sp.gov.br:article/36381Revistahttps://periodicos.saude.sp.gov.br/hansenologiaPRIhttps://periodicos.saude.sp.gov.br/hansenologia/oaihansen_int@ilsl.br || hansenologia.internationalis@gmail.com || periodicossp@saude.sp.gov.br1982-51610100-3283opendoar:2023-08-31T19:10:53Hansenologia Internationalis (Online) - Instituto Lauro de Souza Lima (ILSL)false
