Introduction: This research aims at analyzing children and adolescents’ profiles under hospitalization conditions for the detoxification program offered by the Western Paraná University Hospital (HUOP). Methodology: This is a qualitative and quantitative research, with an exploratory-descriptive character. As a support for the analysis, the study deals not only with a bibliographical discussion about children and adolescents under psychoactive substances addiction, but also with the legal rulings established by the Statute of Child and Adolescent, and by the guidelines of SUS and Ministry of Health. The present study also adopted the documentary analysis to rescue the history of the implantation of the HUOP Detoxification Program and its activities. This research used a 400 physical-file samples with the patient’s information in order to carry out statistical analyses concerning the program users. All the information was collected on the day the patient was hospitalized by HUOP's on-call social worker, and all questions were answered by the own patient and his / her caregiver. The selected files are from 2007 to 2016, which was chosen because the Detoxification Wing began its operation in March 2007. The studied variables were: age, sex, schooling, school dropout, family income, chronological order of consumption of psychoactive substances, first substance, substances most used, how the substance was obtained, occupation, participation of social programs, family composition, birth order, addicted familiar member, housing conditions, origin, as well as involvement in infractions, compliance with socio-educational measures, sexual behavior, patients who have become pregnant.

Their mean age ranged from 8 to 17 years old, and the oldest age group ranged from 15 to 17 years old, whose focus was the 15-year old group. And regarding their schooling degree, it was observed that the users were behind in school degree. 89.9% of them did not have finish the elementary education and 9% had just part of secondary education. At their hospitalization day, more than 60% were out of school. The familiar average income of the studied individual ranged from one to two minimum wages. In order to get information about the characteristics of psychoactive substances used, it was observed that many of them were introduced to both licit and illicit substances by influence of friends, siblings, relatives and even parents. The main reason that led them to try psychoactive substances was curiosity. And as the first psychoactive substance most consumed was alcohol, and almost 50% was followed by tobacco, and then marijuana. All those patients, before hospitalization, used more than one substance, but marijuana was the most consumed (59.2%), followed by crack. We also have the use of psychoactive substances, among parents reaching 70.4%. The use of psychoactive substances by patients was associated with involvement with illegal activities in order to get them. This index reached 92%. They were involved in robbery, prostitution and, mostly, they took part of illicit psychoactive substance trafficking. It was recorded that 18.2% of them complied with socio-educational measures, 17.5% were in compliance as a service measure, 11.0% were under assisted freedom, 2.6% were in compliance with freedom deprivation measures. Regarding the family, it is observed that 70.5% are part of a parental/single-parent family nucleus. And the number of siblings is small. There were two or three children. They had a bad or conflicting relationship with their family, but the greatest conflict was with their father. The major modality of hospitalization was involuntary, in which they are brought by the parents or guardian, followed by compulsory. The greatest majority was admitted at the hospital against their own will and were brought by parents or guardian, followed by the compulsory. 63.9% had already took part of some treatment before hospitalization in this Wing. The mother is the main person who most come with their sons and daughters to the hospital. Sexual behavior was more associated with risk, with early onset of sexual activity, whose practice is with different partners, including prostitution. Thus, there were forty girls from 400 sampling charts, and from those ones, twelve had already become pregnant at least once.
