Abstract

Objective: to describe the characteristics of reported human anti-rabies treatment in municipalities of the 'agreste' region of Pernambuco State, Brazil, 2010-2012.

Methods: this was a descriptive study using data from human anti-rabies medical records filed on the Information System for Notifiable Diseases (Sinan).

Results: 10,138 reported records of anti-rabies treatment were included; canines were the most involved species (68.1%), in good health condition (79.9%). Biting was the most common contact (83.8%), causing multiple injuries (58.3%), to hands/feet (39.4%), and deep wounds in 56.8% of cases; combined vaccine + serum administration frequency was found to be low (10.5%), even though 47.9% of injuries were considered severe and therefore required this prophylactic procedure.

Conclusion: possible inadequate prophylaxis procedures were found, showing the need for health worker training aimed at ensuring correct human anti-rabies prophylaxis and the proper filling in of medical record files.

2010-2012年巴西伯南布哥州“格里斯特”地区人类抗狂犬病治疗概况

目的:描述2010-2012年巴西伯南布哥州“格里斯特”地区各市报告的人类抗狂犬病治疗的特点。方法:本研究是一项描述性研究，数据来源于法定传染病信息系统(思南市)备案的人类抗狂犬病病历。结果:共纳入抗狂犬病治疗报告10138例;犬类是感染最多的种类(68.1%)，健康状况良好(79.9%)。咬伤是最常见的接触方式(83.8%)，造成多处损伤(58.3%)、手/脚损伤(39.4%)和深伤(56.8%);尽管47.9%的损伤被认为是严重的，因此需要采取这种预防措施，但联合疫苗+血清给药的频率很低(10.5%)。结论:发现预防程序可能不充分，表明需要对卫生工作者进行培训，以确保正确的人类抗狂犬病预防和正确填写病历文件。
