1192/2013 - Alteração do perfil de atendimento dos hospitais psiquiátricos públicos de Belo Horizonte, no contexto da reforma da assistência à saúde mental Profile changes of public psychiatric hospitals of Belo Horizonte, in the context of mental health reform
Objetivo: Descrever os atendimentos e internações dos hospitais psiquiátricos públicos de Belo Horizonte de 2002 a 2011, explorando mudanças nas características dos atendimentos e no perfil dos pacientes atendidos; no contexto da reforma da assistência em saúde mental. Metodologia: Estudo de séries temporais com análises de tendência por meio de regressões lineares. Resultados: No período analisado, houve redução no número total de atendimentos. Inversamente, constatou-se o aumento das internações com redução do tempo de permanência e manutenção da taxa de reinternação. Os atendimentos a pacientes da capital foram os mais frequentes, entretanto observou-se crescimento relativo da demanda pelos oriundos da Região Metropolitana. Houve inversão na morbidade prevalente de transtornos psicóticos para transtornos decorrentes do uso de álcool e/ou outras drogas. Conclusão: A alteração observada no perfil de atendimento dos hospitais psiquiátricos públicos de Belo Horizonte foi concomitante com a progressiva implantação de serviços comunitários de saúde mental que provavelmente tem suprido uma demanda que antes se dirigia a esses hospitais. Atualmente o hospital psiquiátrico não constitui a primeira e muito menos a única instância de tratamento, todavia constatou-se que eles ainda fazem parte do circuito de atendimento da rede de saúde mental de Minas Gerais.

Abstract:
Objective: To describe the care provided in public psychiatric hospitals in Belo Horizonte, Brazil, from 2002 to 2011, analyzing changes in the characteristics of services provided and patient profiles, in the context of health care reform. Methodology: Analysis of temporal series. Trend analysis using linear regressions. Results: There was a reduction in the number of emergency visits. Inversely, there was an increase in admissions, reduction of lengths of stay and no change on readmission rates. Patients from Belo Horizonte prevailed, however an increase demand by the population of the surrounding cities was observed. Over this period, there was a reversal in the morbidity prevalence of psychotic disorders to disorders due to use of alcohol and/or other drugs. The same trend was observed in the analysis of origin and morbidity of admissions. Conclusion: The alteration observed in the profile of treatment in public psychiatric hospitals in Belo Horizonte was concomitant with the progressive institution of mental health community services that probably have supplied the demands previously directed to these hospitals. Currently the psychiatric hospital is not the first, much less the only instance of treatment, however it was observed that they are still part of mental health network in Minas Gerais.
