The purpose of changing the conception of hospitalization for psychoactive substance use has a new direction for assistance, working in a logic antimanicomial and interdisciplinary. The study objectives were: To analyze the epidemiological profile of crack users hospitalized patients in beds of a general hospital in Sobral-CE, regulated by the UHS, in 2010; characterize the sociodemographic and clinical profile of crack users, estimate the frequency, type of psychiatric hospitalization due to crack use and describe characteristics of services such as: costs, professional envolvidosm, assistance. A quantitative study, a cross-sectional data collection was performed from November/2011 to February 2012, using as a base, data from medical records of patients admitted to the psychiatric ward at the General Hospital, Dr. Estevam Ponte in the city of Sobral-CE. Crack users hospitalized in the year 2010 were selected, representing 31.5% of admissions for psychoactive substance use this year, a total of 97 admissions. To collect data relevant variables were extracted for the study related to hospitalization and the patient. The analysis was performed using the SPSS and R 2.10. To identify differences between the types of outcome and the sociodemographic and clinical variables of crack users, Pearson’s chi-square and Fisher’s were conducted, and used p value less than 0.05 and rough estimate of odds ratios and prevalence. It was used the Mann-Whitney and based on the outcome variables were selected for multivariate analysis according to the criteria of Hosmer-Lemeshow test for logistic regression and Cox regression. For analysis of length of hospital stay it was adapted to the techniques of survival analysis and Kaplan-Meier method. The study was approved by the research ethics committee and funded by CNPq. As the profile of crack users, mostly were male, aged 25-34 years with low education, no occupation at the time of admission, with marital bond, with fixed residence. On the type of admissions, the number of professionals involved was statistically significant (p <0.05), as the value of hospitalization and use of other drugs associated with the crack. By applying logistic regression it was concluded that the risk factors for involuntary hospitalization were substance abuse and the age group 25-34 years. Related to length of stay it was observed that the age of users, the fact that it is developing some occupation and the number of professionals who assist them have significant difference (p <0.05) in their length of hospital stay, important aspects were described of the users previously treated.The importance of understanding the profile of these patients and characteristics of these hospitalizations allows a reflection on the models of care and direction of policies for this scenario.
