RESUMO
O Novo Coronavírus representa uma emergência em saúde pública, trazendo desafios à vigilância epidemiológica. As estatísticas de mortalidade são primordiais nesse contexto e registros condizentes com a realidade de-pendem de um trabalho coordenado entre os serviços e técnicos que trabalham com os sistemas de informação em saúde. O objetivo foi descrever o papel da vigilância epidemiológica na identificação do perfil dos óbitos por Covid-19 no início da pandemia no Estado do Paraná. Trata-se de um estudo transversal a partir de dados do SIM Sistema de Informação em Mortalidade, dados preliminares até a semana epidemiológica 22 (25 de maio de 2020). O perfil de óbitos por Covid-19 no Estado do Paraná com dados até maio de 2020 mostrou características semelhantes às de outras localidades, com maior acometimento do sexo masculino (68%), idosos (67%) e portadores de condições prévias (69%), sendo as principais delas hipertensão (23%), diabetes (21%) e cardiopatia (13%). A equipe de vigilância epidemiológica dos municípios e regionais de saúde tem papel fundamental na captação e qualificação dos dados de mortalidade e, no contexto pandêmico, se beneficia de orientações oportunas e comunicação eficiente por parte do nível estadual de gestão.

Cross-sectional study using data from SIM Mortality Information System, preliminary data until epidemiological week 22 (May 27, 2020). The mortality profile of deaths by Covid-19 in the state of Paraná with data up to May 2020 showed similar characteristics to the profiles of other locations, demonstrating to affect mostly males (68%), older population (67%) and people with previous conditions (69%), with the main comorbidities being hypertension (23%), diabetes (21%) and heart disease (13%).
