Resumo: | Leprosy is an infectious disease that persists as a public health problem. This study aims to identify clinical, serological manifestations and risk factors for illness in leprosy contacts younger than 15 years old, living in an endemic area. This is a cross-sectional descriptive study with a quantitative approach. Dermatoneurological and serological evaluations were carried out in household contacts of leprosy under the age of fifteen. The sociodemographic characteristics of the 15 participants showed that the majority belong to the female sex (66.67%), the predominant age groups were 7 to 9 and 10 to 12 years, both with a percentage of 46.67%. The predominant family income was more than 3 minimum wages (40%). The result of the dermatoneurological examination showed that 13.33% of the contacts had spots suggestive of leprosy and in 6.67% a thickening of the peripheral nerve was identified. In all vaccine situations of the children evaluated, the levels of antiPGL-1 antibodies show an optical density well below the cutoff points 0.2 and 0.13. Dermatoneurological evaluations showed few changes. In this study, no new cases of leprosy were identified, however, its development promoted health education to the entire participating population as a benefit, in addition to adequate referral for immunoprophylaxis. The study emphasizes the relevance and the need to assess leprosy communicants, especially those under the age of fifteen, due to its epidemiological importance and the direct relationship with the control of pathology. |

A hanseníase é uma doença infectocontagiosa que persiste como problema de saúde pública. Este estudo objetiva identificar manifestações clínicas, sorológicas e fatores de risco de adoecimento em contatos de hanseníase menores de 15 anos, residentes em área endêmica. Trata-se de um estudo descritivo transversal com abordagem quantitativa. Foram realizadas avaliações dermatoneurológicas e sorológicas em contatos intradomiciliares de hanseníase menores de quinze anos. As características sociodemográficas dos 15 participantes, mostraram que a maioria pertence ao sexo feminino (66,67%), as faixas etárias predominantes foram de 7 a 9 e 10 a 12 anos, ambas com percentual de 46,67%. A renda familiar predominante foi de mais de 3 salários mínimos (40%). O resultado do exame dermatoneurológico mostrou que 13,33% dos contatos apresentaram manchas sugestivas de hanseníase e em 6,67% foi identificado espessamento de nervo periférico. Em todas as situações vacinais dos menores avaliados, os níveis de anticorpos anti-PGL-1 apresentam densidade óptica bem abaixo dos pontos de corte 0.2 e 0.13. As avaliações dermatoneurológicas apresentaram poucas alterações. Neste estudo não foram identificados casos novos de hanseníase, contudo, seu desenvolvimento promoveu como benefício a educação em saúde a toda a população participante, além do encaminhamento adequado para imunoprofilaxia. O estudo enfatiza a relevância e a necessidade da avaliação dos comunicantes de hanseníase, sobretudo os menores de quinze anos, devido sua importância epidemiológica e a relação direta com o controle da patologia.Instituto Lauro de Souza Lima da Secretaria de Estado da Saúde de São Paulo2020-09-30info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionAvaliado pelos paresapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.saude.sp.gov.br/hansenologia/article/view/3460310.47878/hi.2018.v43.34603Hansenologia Internationalis: leprosy and other infectious diseases; Vol. 43 (2018); 1-12Hansenologia Internationalis: hanseníase e outras doenças infecciosas; v. 43 (2018); 1-121982-5161reponame:Hansenologia Internationalis (Online)instname:Instituto Lauro de Souza Lima (ILSL)instacron:ILSLporhttps://periodicos.saude.sp.gov.br/hansenologia/article/view/34603/33179Copyright (c) 2020 Hansenologia Internationalis: hanseníase e outras doenças infecciosasinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSagica, Taís dos PassosSilva, Risângela Patrícia de Freitas Pantoja daFerreira, Jean Vitor SilvaLima, Julliana Santos RibeiroCunha, Maria Heliana Chaves Monteiro da2022-08-15T14:28:56Zoai:ojs.periodicos.saude.sp.gov.br:article/34603Revistahttps://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:2022-08-15T14:28:56Hansenologia Internationalis (Online) - Instituto Lauro de Souza Lima (ILSL)false |
