Resumo: | The Northeast Brazil has high epidemiological importance for Chagas disease (CD), since it has high concentration of the transmitting vector. The state of Bahia presents expressive numbers of the Chagasic endemic. Thus, this study aimed to trace the epidemiological profile of CD in a rural population of Bahia. Quantitative and descriptive study in the rural community of Rio do Sal, Paulo Afonso / Bahia. It was used an epidemiological questionnaire with 64 people and analysis of 108 charts followed by data analysis. The prevalence of CD found was 0%. The average age was 44 years and women predominated in the survey (82.81%). Occupations: retirees (20.32%), unemployed (53.12%), employees (23.43%) and students (3.13%). About the educational level, (9.38%) are illiterate; (40.63%) have incomplete elementary education and (12.50%), complete elementary education. All individuals resided in the masonry house. Previous knowledge about the transmitting vector and disease was unsatisfactory. Regarding the data of patients analyzed in medical records, (35.19%) have systemic arterial hypertension (SAH) and (7.41%), heart failure. However, only 9 patients had performed the electrocardiogram, with 1 being altered. In addition, none of the patients had CD serology. In this context, it was observed that the epidemiological profile in the studied area is an adult individual, aged 40-50 years, female, with low educational, unemployed, with SAH as the main comorbidity and without diagnosis for Chagas' disease. |

El estado de Bahía tiene un número significativo de enfermedad de Chagas endémica. Este estudio tuvo como objetivo perfilar el perfil epidemiológico de la EC en una población rural. Estudio cuantitativo y descriptivo en la comunidad rural de Rio do Sal, municipio de Paulo Afonso / Bahía. Se aplicó un cuestionario epidemiológico a 64 personas y se analizaron 108 historias clínicas, seguido del análisis de datos. La prevalencia de EC encontrada fue del 0%. La edad promedio entre hombres y mujeres fue de 44 años, predominando las mujeres en la encuesta (82,81%). Las ocupaciones fueron: jubilados (20,32%), desempleados (53,12%), ocupados (23,43%) y estudiantes (3,13%). Sobre el nível de educación, (9,38%) son analfabetos; (40,63%) tiene educación primaria incompleta y (12,50%) educación primaria completa. Todos los individuos residían en una casa de ladrillos. El conocimiento sobre el vector y la enfermedad fue insatisfactorio. En relación a los datos de los pacientes analizados en la historia clínica, (35,19%) presentaban hipertensión arterial sistémica (HAS) y (7,41%) insuficiencia cardíaca. Sin embargo, solo a 9 pacientes se les había realizado el electrocardiograma, uno de los cuales estaba alterado. Además, ninguno de los pacientes tenía serología para EC. En este contexto, se observó que el perfil epidemiológico en el área de estudio es el de un adulto, con edad entre 40-50 años, mujer, con bajo nivel educativo, desempleado, con HAS como principal comorbilidad y sin diagnóstico de EC.O nordeste brasileiro possui elevada importância epidemiológica para Doença de Chagas (DC), uma vez que possui elevada concentração do vetor transmissor.
