Análise espacial e temporal da cobertura da triagem auditiva neonatal no Brasil 2008-2015. 2016. 50f. Dissertação (Mestrado em Saúde Coletiva) - Centro de Ciências da Saúde, Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte, Natal, 2016.https://repositorio.ufrn.br/jspui/handle/123456789/21350Newborn hearing screening (NHS) is the first step to hearing loss diagnosis program in newborns, because when identified and early treated it minimizes the consequences of the disease. In the literature, there is a consensus for universal screening, which is that the index screens held in the programs should be more than 95% of newborns. In this sense, the objective of this study is to make a spatial and temporal analysis of the newborn hearing screening coverage in Brazil by period of january 2008 until june 2015. This is an ecological study which use as basis the national territory and as analysis unit the 161 Interim Regions of Urban Articulation. The population references were alive born and users of the Brazilian National Health System from january 2008 until june 2015. For the calculation of newborn hearing screening coverage percentage was used as the data source Births Information System, the Outpatient Information System and Beneficiaries Information System of the National Health Agency. Data were divided on four periods, where were performed an exploratory analysis of the four maps, through the TerraView Program 4.2.2. Afterwards, for the newest map, was conducted a spatial analysis statistics through the Global Moran and Moran local index. Coverage of newborn hearing screening showed an evolution 9.3 to 37.2% during the study period. In 2008-2009 it can be observed that the covering percentage ranged from 0.00 to 79.92%, however most of regions got coverage between 0.0 and 20%. Already in 2014-2015 coverage ranged between 0.0 to 171.77%, was observed a visible increase in coverage percentage of the country and twelve regions have greater than 95% coverage. The Global Moran index had value of 0,40 (p=0,01), characterizing a pattern of dispersed cluster. In the statistical space analysis was observed that most of the regions are not significant and that the state of Rio Grande do Sul prevailed the high-high cluster and some regions of the states of Paraná and São Paulo. It is concluded that the coverage of screening has been growing along the time, but it is still low and presents an unequal distribution in the territory which can be explained by the laws and local politics, and for the disposition of the different modalities of hearing health service in the country.Acesso AbertoAudiçãoPerda auditivaTriagem neonatalSistema Único de SaúdeSistemas de informaçãomasterThesisCNPQ::CIENCIAS DA SAUDE::SAUDE COLETIVA
