Resumo: |
Introduction: The prevalence of multiple sclerosis in Latin America has been estimated in many countries and varies from 0.75 to 30.7 / 100,000 inhabitants. The reasons for varying prevalence rates across the world are unclear, but there are environmental and genetic factors involved in addition to the application of different methodologies. Methodology: The present study consists of the study of the prevalence of multiple sclerosis (MS) in the population of the city of Goiânia, Goiás, in the year 2015, through three sources: the neurologists of the municipality, reference centers in multiple sclerosis of the city of Goiânia and the record of dispensing high-cost medicines from the state pharmacy. Results: 318 patients with multiple sclerosis were found, excluding intersections between sources, resulting in a crude prevalence rate of 22.2 / 100,000 inhabitants. With the application of the capture-recapture method the prevalence found was 26.4 / 100,000 inhabitants. Of the 318 cases of MS found the majority were women (76.7%), whites (77.4%) and the clinical form of relapsing-remiting (90.8%). Conclusion: This is the first study of the prevalence of MS in the state of Goiás, specifically in the city of Goiânia, and these data are fundamental for the planning of better health care for patients with multiple sclerosis, predicting resources, including research methods, drug availability, and treatment and rehabilitation services. The study also concludes that a national epidemiological study, using the same methodology, is fundamental to determine the prevalence and incidence of the disease in Brazil. |
