Descrição
Resumo:Faced with the growth of cities due to the rural exodus from the 1950s onwards, an increase in diseases that spread due to the absence or deficiencies of sanitation was identified. Therefore, State Basic Sanitation Companies were created to serve the drinking water supply and sanitary sewage services, supported by the availability of federal resources that translated into significant improvements in the drinking water supply indexes. Currently, in Rio Grande do Norte, the urban service rate by water network is between 80% and 90% but the sewage collection rate is only 33.72%, such deficiency is largely related to the increase of diseases related to inadequate environmental sanitation, highlighting if the diarrhea. As a way to define priorities in the distribution of financial resources, the entities use indicators to represent the status of services, monitoring trends and allowing the identification of possible risks. Therefore, this work aims to study the indicators of coverage of sewage and water supply and how they relate to the number of hospitalizations for diarrhea, a disease widely used in the literature in this relationship. As a result, it was highlighted that better sanitation indices are related to the reduction in the number of hospitalizations, especially in the most precarious situations, it was also evident that it is necessary to evaluate other factors that contribute to the improvement of this condition. In addition, it appears that within the universe of study, few municipalities reach the goals defined by the National Basic Sanitation Plan (PLANSAB).
