Resumo: Objective: to analyze the epidemiological characteristics and spatial distribution of leprosy cases in an endemic municipality. Methods: epidemiological, retrospective study with spatial analysis techniques developed with data from the National System of Compulsory Notification. Leprosy cases were georeferenced using a Geographic Positioning System receiver for the spatial location of the households. Spatial analysis was performed by the Kernel method. Results: one hundred new cases of leprosy were reported, and there was predominance of males and patients with low education. The Virchowian clinical form was predominant (32.0%) and 48.0% of the cases presented some degree of disability at the time of diagnosis. There was an increasing temporal trend in the detection rate. The spatial analysis identified critical areas for occurrence of leprosy, which was concentrated in the urban area (71.0%). Conclusion: the municipality presented high endemicity for leprosy, with heterogeneous distribution of cases and risk cluster in the urban area.

Método: estudo transversal, retrospectivo com técnicas de análise espacial desenvolvido a partir de dados do Sistema Nacional de Notificação Compulsória. Os casos de hanseníase foram georreferenciados utilizando-se um receptor GPS para a localização espacial dos domicílios. A análise espacial se deu pelo método de Kernel. Resultados: Foram notificados 100 casos novos de hanseníase com predomínio do sexo masculino e baixa escolaridade. A forma clínica Virchowiana foi a predominante (32%) e 48% dos casos apresentaram algum grau de incapacidade no momento do diagnóstico. A tendência temporal apresentou-se crescente. A análise espacial identificou áreas críticas para ocorrência da hanseníase e concentrando-se na zona urbana (71%). Conclusão: o município apresentou alta endemicidade para a hanseníase com distribuição heterogênea dos casos e cluster de risco na área urbana.Universidade Federal do Ceará2019-09-25info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionestudo epidemiológico, retrospectivo e com técnicas de análise espacialapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttp://periodicos.ufc.br/rene/article/view/4125710.15253/2175-6783.20192041257Rev Rene; Vol 20 (2019): Rev Rene; e41257Rev Rene; v. 20 (2019): Rev Rene; e412572175-67831517-3852reponame:Rev Rene (Online)instname:Universidade Federal do Ceará (UFC)instacron:UFCporenghttp://periodicos.ufc.br/rene/article/view/41257/99332http://periodicos.ufc.br/rene/article/view/41257/99333Copyright (c) 2019 Rev Renehttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessJesus, Mateus Santos deSandes, Teovan AndradeLima, Ana Caroline RodriguesSouza, Katyucia Oliveira Crispim deGóes, José Augusto PassosSantos, Allan Dantas dos2020-05-28T15:34:47Zoai:periodicos.ufc:article/41257Revistahttp://periodicos.ufc.br/renePUBhttp://periodicos.ufc.br/rene/oairene@ufc.br||2175-67831517-3852opendoar:2020-05-28T15:34:47Rev Rene (Online) - Universidade Federal do Ceará (UFC)false
