ABSTRACT
Objectives:
The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has imposed significant burden on Brazil's health system. The present study aims to describe patients' demographic and clinical characteristics, vaccine uptake and assess healthcare resource utilization (HCRU) and costs associated with acute COVID-19 in Brazil during the Omicron predominant period. Method(s) A population-based retrospective study was conducted using the National Health Data Network (RNDS), National Vaccination Campaign against COVID-19 data and surveillance data in public setting. Individuals with positive COVID-19 test results between January-April 2022 were identified. Patients' demographics, comorbidities, vaccination status, HCRU for those who were admitted to hospitals and their associated costs were described by age groups. Result(s) A total of 8,160,715 COVID-19 cases were identified and 2.7% were aged <5 years, 11.6% were 5-19 years, 76.9% were 20-64 years and 8.7% were >= 65 years. The presence of comorbidity was 23.1% with a higher prevalence of comorbidities in the elderly (61.8% for 65-74 years and 71.2% for >=75 years). Regarding COVID -19 vaccination uptake, among those aged <=19 years, 20-64 years and >=65 years, 40.6%, 86.5% and 92.2% had primary series, respectively. Among adults, the booster uptake was 47.3% and 75.8% for those aged 20-64 years and >= 65 years, respectively. Among those with confirmed COVID-19, regardless of vaccination status, 87% were being symptomatic and 1.7% were hospitalized (3.8% in aged <5 years, 4.2% in 5-19 years, 34.3% in 20-64 years and 57.6% in >= 65 years). Among hospitalized patients, 32,6% were admitted to ICU and 80% required mechanical ventilation support. The average cost per day in normal wards and ICU without ventilation was R$291,89 and R$923,90, respectively. Conclusion(s) Our results quantify the public health and economic burden of COVID-19 in Brazil, suggesting substantial healthcare resources required to manage the COVID-19 pandemic.Copyright © 2023
