Resumo: Objective: To evaluate the prevalence of positive bacterial sputum cases of pulmonary tuberculosis among users of a primary healthcare unit. Methods: Cross-sectional, observational study, conducted between February and August 2011 with 1,873 individuals aged above 18 years seen at a Basic Healthcare Unit (BHU) in the city of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, selected through convenience non-probabilistic sampling. A tool for the presumptive diagnosis of pulmonary tuberculosis was initially applied. The individuals with positive score were submitted to bacilloscopy. Descriptive statistics was performed, with absolute and percentage frequencies, as well as Fisher’s exact test to assess the association between gender, age, and the results of bacterial sputum microscopy. Results: Of the users seen at the studied BHU, 157 individuals were tested positive for the presumptive diagnosis of tuberculosis. Their most frequent symptoms were cough (76.5%, n=13) and chest pain (70.6%, n=12). There was no significant association between positive bacilloscopy, sex (p=0.477), and age (p=0.186). Conclusion: The frequency of positive bacilloscopy cases of pulmonary tuberculosis among individuals with positive score for presumption of that disease was high in the studied health unit.

Métodos: Estudio observacional de corte transversal realizado entre febrero y agosto de 2011 con 1873 individuos mayores de 18 años asistidos en la Unidad Básica de Salud (UBS) localizada en la zona norte del municipio de Rio de Janero-RJ (Brasil), elegidos por conveniencia y muestreo no probabilístico. En principio se aplicó un instrumento para el diagnóstico presuntivo de tuberculosis pulmonar. Los individuos con La puntuación positiva fueron sometidos al test bacilifero. Se realizo la estadística descriptiva con frecuencia simple y porcentual así como el test exacto de Fisher para evaluar la asociación del sexo, la edad y los resultados de la baciloscopia de esputo. Resultados: De los individuos asistidos en la UBS investigada, 157 (8,4%) presentaron puntuación positiva para el diagnóstico presuntivo de tuberculosis. En ellos, los síntomas más frecuentes fueron la tos (76,5%, n=13) y el dolor torácico (70,6%, n=12). No hubo asociación significativa de la baciloscopia positiva y el sexo (p=0,477) y la edad (p=0,186). Conclusión: La presencia de los casos baciliferos de tuberculosis pulmonar en indivíduos con puntuación positiva de presunción para esta enfermedad fue elevada en la unidad de salud investigada.Objetivo: Avaliar a prevalência de casos bacilíferos de tuberculose pulmonar entre usuários de uma unidade de atenção básica.

Inicialmente, aplicou-se instrumento para o diagnóstico presuntivo de tuberculose pulmonar. Os indivíduos com escore positivo foram submetidos ao teste bacilífero. Realizou-se estatística descritiva com frequência simples e percentual, bem como teste exato de Fisher para avaliar a associação com sexo, idade e os resultados da baciloscopia de escarro. Resultados: Entre os indivíduos atendidos na UBS estudada, 157 (8,4%) apresentaram escore positivo para diagnóstico presuntivo de tuberculose. Nesses, os sintomas mais frequentes foram tosse (76,5%, n=13) e dor torácica (70,6%, n=12). Não houve associação significativa entre baciloscopia positiva com sexo (p=0,477) e idade (p=0,186). Conclusão: A ocorrência de casos bacilíferos de tuberculose pulmonar entre indivíduo com escore positivo de presunção dessa doença mostrou-se alta na unidade de saúde estudada.Universidade de Fortaleza2015-03-30info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion"Peer-reviewed Article""Avaliado pelos pares""Avaliado pelos pares"application/pdfapplication/pdfhttps://ojs.unifor.br/RBPS/article/view/308310.5020/18061230.2015.p106Brazilian Journal in Health Promotion; Vol. 28 No. 1 (2015); 106-112Revista Brasileña en Promoción de la Salud; Vol. 28 Núm. 1 (2015); 106-112Revista Brasileira em Promoção da Saúde; v. 28 n. 1 (2015); 106-1121806-1230reponame:Revista Brasileira em Promoção da Saúdeinstname:Universidade de Fortaleza (Unifor)instacron:UFORporenghttps://ojs.unifor.br/RBPS/article/view/3083/pdfhttps://ojs.unifor.br/RBPS/article/view/3083/pdf_1de Oliveira, Monalisa GarciaJomar, Rafael Tavaresda Motta, Maria Catarina Salvadorinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2022-02-16T12:25:39Zoai:ojs.ojs.unifor.br:article/3083Revistahttps://periodicos.unifor.br/RBPS/oai1806-12301806-1222opendoar:2022-02-16T12:25:39Revista Brasileira em Promoção da Saúde - Universidade de Fortaleza (Unifor)false
