Análise da morbidade hospitalar de Bambuí e região

Abstract

This study comparatively analyzed the hospital morbidity of the Unified Health System (SUS) in nine municipalities of the Central-West region of Minas Gerais (Arcos, Bambuí, Córrego Danta, Córrego Fundo, Formiga, Iguatama, Medeiros, Pains, and Tapiraí), covering the period from January 2010 to December 2025. A quantitative approach was conducted using secondary data from the SIH/SUS (DATASUS), focusing on Chapters I (Infectious and Parasitic Diseases), IX (Diseases of the Circulatory System), and X (Diseases of the Respiratory System) of the ICD-10. Data were normalized per 1,000 inhabitants, applying the Chi-square test (\alpha=0.05) and Relative Risk (RR) calculations. During the period, 56,378 accumulated hospitalizations were recorded. Circulatory diseases represented the highest absolute regional burden (23,367 cases), with the highest risk concentrated in Tapiraí (\text{RR} = 1.8035), a scenario associated with population age structure and senescence. For respiratory disorders (17,622 cases), Tapiraí also led the risk (\text{RR} = 1.6700). Regarding infectious diseases (15,389 cases), there was a strong geographic dependence association (X^2 = 3,586.88), with a critical highlight for Bambuí showing an expressive rate and elevated risk (\text{RR} = 2.0419), indicating socio-environmental vulnerabilities and a decline in historical vaccination coverages. It is concluded that the illness profile is heterogeneous and conditioned by the Social Determinants of Health, underscoring the strategic role of Primary Care in preventing health conditions and optimizing public health management.
