| Resumo: | Background: respiratory diseases cause millions of hospitalizations and deaths worldwide,
resulting in economic and social impacts. Strategies for health promotion and disease
prevention based on the epidemiological profile of the population may reduce hospital costs.
Objective: to characterize hospitalizations and deaths due to respiratory diseases in Brazilian
adults above 20 years old between 2008 and 2021. Methods: this longitudinal study used
secondary data of hospitalizations and deaths due to respiratory diseases from the Hospital
Information System of the Brazilian Unified Health System between 2008 and 2021. Data
were grouped according to region, age group, sex, and period. The period was divided into
first (2008 to 2011), second (2012 to 2015), and third (2016 to 2019) quadrennium and one
biennium (2020 to 2021), and all data were analyzed using the GraphPad Prism; statistical
significance was set at p < 0.05. Results: a total of 9,502,378 hospitalizations due to
respiratory diseases were registered between 2008 and 2021. The south and southeast region
presented the highest hospitalization and mortality rate (respectively) in the age group ≥ 80
years and both sexes. Also, respiratory diseases caused 1,170,504 deaths, with a mortality rate
of 12.32%. Conclusion: respiratory diseases affected the Brazilian population, the south
region was the most affected, and the aging process contributed to the increased incidence of
respiratory diseases. |
