The current study describes hospital morbidity in the indigenous population living in 83 Guarani villages in Southern and Southeastern Brazil (N=6,483), based on primary data obtained from a hospital admissions surveillance system implemented in 2007-2008, specifically for a case-control study on acute respirato… Show more

“…Em recente estudo sobre doença respirató-ria aguda em indígenas Guarani residentes em 83 aldeias no Sul e Sudeste do Brasil, verificouse que 71,9% das hospitalizações com causas definidas em < 5 anos de idade foram devidas às infecções respiratórias agudas baixas (IRAB), sendo o broncoespasmo, a bronquiolite viral aguda e a asma as principais causas secundá-rias de diagnóstico 7 . Nessa mesma população e no mesmo período, a taxa de mortalidade em < 5 anos e a taxa de mortalidade infantil corresponderam a 44,5 óbitos por mil nascidos vivos e a 29,6 óbitos por mil nascidos vivos, respectivamente.…”
