Resumo: | Aseptic meningitis is defined as meningeal inflammation unrelated to an infectious process in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). Fever, headache, hardening of the neck, and altered mental status may be present. Despite the clear diagnostic difference, hospitalization and treatment with broad-spectrum antibiotics of children with aseptic meningitis is frequent and becomes a cause of parental stress and increased health care costs. The present study is an epidemiological, ecological, descriptive, retrospective, and quantitative study that aimed to understand the number of confirmed cases of aseptic meningitis in the state of São Paulo in the period between 2006 and 2012 and its comparison with the number of cases recorded in Brazil, correlating age and sex of the affected population. For this, data were collected through the TABNET application of the Departamento de Informática do Sistema Único de Saúde (DATASUS), which showed that, when compared with the other units of the federation, São Paulo was the state that presented the highest incidence of aseptic meningitis throughout the studied period, followed by the state of Paraná, in 2006, with 25% of the cases and ending the studied period with 6% of the total cases. A declining trend in the number of infant cases in Brazil during this period could be observed. As a perspective for the future, it is expected that new studies involving secondary data can bring a picture of greater visualization of meningitis outbreaks, with public policies implemented in the aspect of prevention and treatment. |

Puede haber fiebre, dolor de cabeza, endurecimiento del cuello y alteración del estado mental. A pesar de la clara diferencia diagnóstica, la hospitalización y el tratamiento con antibióticos de amplio espectro de los niños con meningitis aséptica son frecuentes y se convierten en una causa de estrés para los padres y de aumento de los costes sanitarios. El presente estudio se configura como un estudio epidemiológico, ecológico, de tipo descriptivo, retrospectivo y de análisis cuantitativo, que tuvo como objetivo conocer el número de casos confirmados de meningitis aséptica en el estado de São Paulo en el período comprendido entre 2006 y 2012 y su comparación con el número de casos registrados en Brasil, correlacionando edad y sexo de la población afectada. Para eso, fueron colectados datos a través de la aplicación TABNET del Departamento de Informática do Sistema Único de Saúde (DATASUS), que mostraron que, al compararse con las demás unidades de la federación, São Paulo fue el estado que presentó la mayor incidencia de meningitis aséptica en todo el período estudiado, seguido por el estado de Paraná, en 2006, con 25% de los casos y finalizando el período estudiado con 6% del total de casos. Se pudo observar una tendencia a la baja en el número de casos infantiles registrados en este periodo en Brasil. Como perspectiva para el futuro, existe la expectativa de que nuevos estudios que involucren datos secundarios puedan traer un cuadro de mayor visualización de los brotes de meningitis, con políticas públicas implementadas en el aspecto de prevención y tratamiento.Meningite asséptica é definida como uma inflamação meníngea não relacionada com um processo infeccioso no líquido cerebrorraquidiano (LCR). Pode-se apresentar febre, dor de cabeça, endurecimento da nuca e alteração do estado mental. Apesar da diferença diagnóstica clara, a hospitalização e tratamento com antibióticos de amplo espectro de crianças com meningite asséptica é frequente e se torna causa de estresse parental e aumento dos gastos em saúde. O presente estudo configura-se como estudo epidemiológico, ecológico, do tipo descritivo, retrospectivo e de análise quantitativa, que objetivou compreender o número de casos confirmados de meningite asséptica no estado de São Paulo no período entre 2006 e 2012 e sua comparação com o número de casos registrados no Brasil, correlacionando idade e sexo da população afetada. Para isso, coletou-se dados por meio do aplicativo TABNET do Departamento de Informática do Sistema Único de Saúde (DATASUS),o que demonstrou que, quando comparado com as outras unidades de federação, São Paulo foi o Estado que apresentou a maior incidência de meningite asséptica ao longo do período estudado, seguido pelo Estado do Paraná,em 2006, com 25% dos casos e encerrando o período estudado com 6% dos casos totais. Pôde-se notar uma tendência declinante do número de casos infantis registrados nesse período à nível de Brasil. Como perspectiva para o futuro, tem-se a expectativa de que novos estudos envolvendo dados secundário possam trazer um quadro de maior visualização de surtos de meningite, com políticas públicas implementadas no aspecto de prevenção e tratamento da mesma.Research, Society and Development2023-01-11info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/3975710.33448/rsd-v12i1.39757Research, Society and Development; Vol. 12 No. 1; e26612139757Research, Society and Development; Vol. 12 Núm. 1; e26612139757Research, Society and Development; v. 12 n. 1; e266121397572525-3409reponame:Research, Society and Developmentinstname:Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)instacron:UNIFEIporhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/39757/32596Copyright (c) 2023 Camilla Caramaschi Vernizzi; Giulia Bisognin Vallim; Marina Costa Fonseca; Sofia Helena Vitte; Vinícius Cesar Silva Baiardi; Walquiria Pedra Parreirahttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessVernizzi, Camilla Caramaschi Vallim, Giulia Bisognin Fonseca, Marina Costa Vitte, Sofia Helena Baiardi, Vinícius Cesar Silva Parreira, Walquiria Pedra 2023-01-13T10:30:42Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/39757Revistahttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/indexPUBhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/oairsd.articles@gmail.com2525-34092525-3409opendoar:2023-01-13T10:30:42Research, Society and Development - Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)false |
