Resumo

In Brazil, dengue has emerged as a major public health problem, and despite the investments and efforts of health authorities, the disease still remains a high incidence. Currently the four dengue virus serotypes circulating in all regions of the country, and this simultaneous movement features a scenario hyperendemicity disease, responsible for the increase of severe cases and deaths in the last decade. The first article is a descriptive study based on data collected for surveillance of dengue in the country, covering the main aspects of epidemiology and disease trends in Brazil during October 2001 until August 2014. During the analyzed period, there were approximately 6.9 million probable cases with more than two million in the years 2010 and 2013. The second half of the 2000s marked a period of more cases of dengue with complications (DCC) and Fever Dengue hemorrhagic (DHF), accompanied by an increase in the number of deaths from the disease. The results showed different patterns of incidence and hospitalization for the disease in regions throughout the study period. An analysis of clinical cases that were classified as DCC for the period 2011 to 2013 features was made, according to age group. Among the clinical characteristics considered more severe, there is the group that was classified as DCC not met the criteria for DHF which represented in 2011 and 2012, about 50% of the total cases in all age groups. The second article is an assessment of the sensitivity of the surveillance system to detect dengue cases hospitalized in the Unified Health System (SUS). For this study, a probabilistic linkage data from SINAN and SIH and the municipalities of Rio de Janeiro (RJ), Belo Horizonte (MG), Fortaleza (CE), Natal (RN), São Luis (MA), Teresina (PI), Goiânia (GO), Campo Grande (MS), Manaus (AM) and Boa Vista (RR) was performed , for the period 2008-2013. The combination of the two systems allowed us to identify 69,935 hospitalizations representing increases of 50.3% and 31.1% in hospitalizations compared with SINAN (34,756 hospitalizations) and SIH / SUS (48,174 hospitalizations). The sensitivity of detection SINAN in hospitalized cases with hospitalization variable filled, was 26.7% ranging from 8.3% in 2009, 41.9% in 2013. The calculation of sensitivity including all records was almost twice as compared with the use of hospitalization variable filled. With this approach the cumulative sensitivity was 49.8% ranging from 41.2% in 2009, 76.5% in 2013. The study results represent a robust assessment of the epidemiology of dengue in Brazil. It was possible to estimate the burden of disease in order stratified by region and estimate the sensitivity of the surveillance system in ten major urban areas endemic and representative of their regions.
