RESUMO

Introdução:

as substâncias psicoativas (SPA) representam uma questão de ordem internacional. Os efeitos negativos do consumo destas incluem os elevados custos como o aumento nas taxas de acidentes de trânsito e de violência urbana.

Objetivo:

o presente estudo descreve as internações hospitalares por transtornos mentais e comportamentais devido ao uso de SPA na região Nordeste do Brasil em 2018.

Metodologia:

estudo observacional, retrospectivo, com dados agregados, do tipo ecológico. A pesquisa foi realizada nas Unidades Federativas (UF) componentes da região Nordeste do Brasil, no período do ano de 2018.

Resultados:

as internações totalizaram 11.250 casos, sendo que outras SPA tiveram taxas superiores na maioria das unidades federativas (UF). As maiores taxas são de pacientes de 30 a 39 anos, sexo masculino e considerados pardos. O valor médio das internações foi de R$1.274,83 e a média de permanência foi de 25,6 dias. A taxa de mortalidade total foi de 0,77, tendo o álcool como principal responsável na maioria das UF.

Conclusão:

os dados evidenciam a relevância da atualização dos estudos epidemiológicos para conhecimento da população exposta ao abuso de SPA. O enfrentamento do drogadição e dependência do álcool não deve excluir qualquer grupo quanto a etnia, gênero ou faixa etária, priorizando a prevenção do consumo de SPA.
ABSTRACT

Introduction:

psychoactive substances (PAS) represent a matter of international order. The negative effects of the consumption of PAS include high costs, like increased rates of traffic accidents and urban violence.

Objective:

in order to provide a basis for new approaches, according to the reality and characteristics of the individuals affected, this study describes hospitalizations for mental and behavioral disorders due to the use of PAS in the Northeastern region of Brazil during the year of 2018.

Methodology:

observational, retrospective, aggregated, ecological study. The research was conducted in the Federative Units of the Northeast of Brazil, in the period of 2018.

Results:

hospitalizations totaled 11,250 cases, and other PAS had higher rates in most federative unities (FU). The highest rates are among patients aged 30 to 39 years, male and considered brown. The average value of hospitalizations was R$ 1,274.83 and the average length of stay is 25.6 days. The total mortality rate was 0.77, with alcohol as the main responsible in most of the FU.

Conclusion:

the data shows the relevance of updating epidemiological studies for a better knowledge of the population exposed to PAS abuse. Coping with drug addiction and alcohol dependence should not exclude any group regarding ethnicity, gender or age group, prioritizing the prevention of PAS consumption.
