Avaliação da Cobertura do Exame Mamográfico de Rastreio do SUS e Mortalidade por Câncer de Mama no Nordeste Brasileiro

Abstract

Objective: To analyze the correlation of screening mammography coverage and the breast cancer mortality rate in Northeastern Brazil. Methods: Observational, analytical and cross-sectional study, carried out using secondary data. Variables studied: geographic distribution of mammography equipments, screening coverage, ratio of screening mammograms on the target population and the neoplasia mortality rate. Statistical analysis was performed using a correlation test and simple linear regression. Results: There was a poor distribution of mammography equipments and less screening coverage than recommended. There is a positive correlation between the annual ratio of examinations on the target population and the mortality rate. Conclusion: The region has an incipient screening program, with a number of tests that does not favor an impact in the mortality rate reducing, in addition to not being sufficiently applied as a preventive method, but in more advanced stages of the disease, without interference as a preventive factor of lethality.

“…Este número é menor do que a frequência de 38% descrita em um estudo sérvio com 50 pacientes 21 , entretanto, é maior do que a encontrada na maioria dos estudos mais recentes que apresenta percentuais de 2,47%, 17,6%, 9% e 2,2% 25,26 . Altas taxas de implantes do dispositivo também são referidas por outros estudos no tratamento desses cânceres: 40% e 28% e 23% e 31% 16,18 , respectivamentepadrão que também se repete em outros estudos 14,20 .…”

Laudos de mamografia de rastreamento no Brasil, uma análise da cobertura e dos indicadores socioeconômicos

“…A baixa cobertura do SUS advém, também, do fato de ter sido utilizado mais frequentemente serviços privados, planos de saúde, o que limita o acesso a mulheres de alta renda e maior escolaridade (MOURA et al, 2020). Além disso, os determinantes sociais parecem influenciar direta ou indiretamente a realização de mamografia de rastreio (BORGES, 2016).…”

“…O Sul teve a melhor cobertura e corrobora com outros estudos, mantendo-se com as melhores coberturas. A macrorregião engloba as UF de melhores IDHM, com parâmetros socioeconômicos pertinentes (MOURA et al, 2020).…”

Comparative Analysis of Mortality due to Breast Cancer and Mammography Uptake in the Federative Units of Brazil-2015 to 2021

“…The increase in the mortality rate from breast cancer is not a recent topic, with studies by INCA (2022) and Girianelli, Gamara and Silva (2014) showing this trend when analyzing the period from 1980 to 2006. However, from 2008 and forward, there was an increase in the acquisition of mammography devices (Moura et al, 2020), so currently in Brazil, there are a total of 5,061 mammography devices, of which 4,844 are operational, and 2,171 are available to the Brazilian Public Healthcare System (SUS) (INCA, 2022). The coverage of mammograms in Brazil according to a study by Rodrigues et al (2020) shows a possible difficulty for the population to access the mammography devices.…”
