“…The degree of disability is determined from the neurological evaluation of the eyes, hands and feet, and the result is expressed in values ranging from 0 to II. Degree 0 means there is no neural impairment while degree I indicates loss of sensitivity and II indicates the presence of disabilities and deformities (Pereira et al, 2008;Monteiro et al, 2014;Barbosa, Freitas, 2017). The present study showed that the majority of the patients showed degree 0 of impairment after physical incapacity evaluation.…”

Leprosy is a chronic bacterial granulomatous disease that affects skin and peripheral nerves and shows slow progression. This study was to trace the epidemiological and clinical profile of leprosy among cases reported in the Information System for Notifiable Diseases in Anápolis, Goiás, Central-West region of Brazil. This is an epidemiological, descriptive and a cross-sectional study. Between January 2011 and December 2016, assistance was provided to 484 patients with leprosy. Among the patients, 59.5% male and the most prevalent age group was between 20-40 years old. Brown population in 47.3% of the cases and 51.7% of the patients completed elementary education. The majority of the cases were multibacillary and Virchowian clinical forms were prevalent, with zero degree of disability detected in 79.56% of the patients. There was no death due to leprosy during the study period. The epidemiological data indicates that a greater integration between the population and primary care must be encouraged, a crucial step for health education and strategies in order to combat the disease.

“…Essas incapacidades têm sido ponderadas pelo estigma e pela discriminação dos pacientes, portanto Pereira et al 20 relatam que uma das formas mais eficazes de determinar se o diagnóstico tem sido precoce é identificando a presença de incapacidades físicas no momento da diagnose. O grau de incapacidade é determinado a partir da avaliação neurológica dos olhos, das mãos e dos pés, e o seu resultado é expresso em valores que variam de zero a dois, sendo zero se não houver comprometimento neural; um para diminuição ou perda da sensibilidade e dois para presença de incapacidades e deformidades 21 . Em relação à avaliação da incapacidade, os dados deste estudo demonstraram que a maioria dos pacientes apresentou, por ocasião do diagnóstico, grau zero de incapacidade física, fato este que entra em consonância com uma pesquisa realizada no município de Montes Claros.…”
