Abstract
A partir de 1999, no município de São Gabriel da Cachoeira, Amazonas, foi implementado pelo Ministério da Saúde o Programa de Controle de Tuberculose. Com o objetivo de verificar se a estratégia promoveu mudanças na incidência da tuberculose entre indígenas daquela região, foram estudados, retrospectivamente, os registros médicos de 768 pacientes, divididos em dois grupos. Constituíram o Grupo I os casos tratados entre 1994 e 1998 e o Grupo II os pacientes tratados entre 1999 e 2003. A taxa anual média de incidência foi de 239 e 284 casos de todas as formas de tuberculose por 100.000 habitantes, houve predomínio da forma pulmonar, com 88,2% e 85,9% dos casos e índices de cura elevados, representando 97,2% e 91,5%, respectivamente nos Grupos I e II. Não houve impacto na redução da taxa de incidência da doença, na comparação entre os dois períodos citados, evidenciando que persiste alto risco de aquisição de tuberculose entre indígenas daquela região.
Starting in 1999, the Ministry of Health implemented its Tuberculosis Control Program in the municipality of São Gabriel da Cachoeira, State of Amazonas. With the aim of investigating whether this strategy had promoted changes in tuberculosis incidence among indigenous people in that area, the medical records of 768 patients were studied retrospectively, divided in two groups. Group I consisted of cases treated between 1994 and 1998 and Group II consisted of cases treated between 1999 and 2003. The mean annual incidence rates were, respectively, 239 and 284 cases of all tuberculosis forms per 100,000 inhabitants. The pulmonary form predominated, accounting for 88.2% and 85.9% of the cases, and the cure rate was high (97.2% and 91.5%), respectively in Groups I and II. There was no impact with regard to reducing the incidence rate of this disease, thus showing that a high risk of contracting tuberculosis persists among indigenous people in that area.
