Objetivo: Analisar os dados referentes ao perfil das hospitalizações por transtornos mentais e comportamentais no estado do Piauí, antes e durante a pandemia de COVID-19. Metodologia: Trata-se de um estudo epidemiológico quantitativo e descritivo. Sua base fundamenta-se em dados secundários dos registros de internações hospitalares de indivíduos com Transtornos Mentais e Comportamentais extraídos do Departamento de Informática do Sistema Único de Saúde do Brasil (DATASUS). Resultados: Foram avaliadas e comparadas as variações dos números de internações por transtornos mentais e comportamentais no período de agosto de 2017 a dezembro de 2019 e de janeiro de 2020 a agosto de 2022 por região de saúde, relação ao sexo, de acordo com raça/ cor e faixa etária. Considerações finais: Notou-se em relação às internações hospitalares por Transtornos Mentais e Comportamentais no período de agosto de 2017 a agosto de 2022, uma discreta diminuição nas internações hospitalares, a qual as medidas preventivas adotadas na contenção do coronavírus como lockdown e isolamento social podem ter limitado as internações hospitalares; além do recorte temporal adotado na pesquisa não contemplar os anos de 2017 e 2022 na sua totalidade, devido a disponibilidade dos dados.
