0162/2021 - Tendências de acesso e utilização dos serviços de saúde na APS entre idosos no Brasil, 2008/2013/2019 Trends in access and use of health services in PHC among the elderly in Brazil, 2008/2013/2019
O artigo tem por objetivo contribuir na identificação das condições e tendências de acesso e utilização dos serviços da Atenção primária em saúde (APS) pelos idosos brasileiros nos anos de 2008, 2013 e 2019. Para tanto, realizou-se um estudo transversal em painéis com análise descritiva dos percentuais e intervalos de confiança das variáveis elencadas, no qual foram resgatados os dados relativos à população idosa investigada no Suplemento Saúde da Pesquisa Nacional por Amostra de Domicílios (PNAD) do ano 2008 e da Pesquisa Nacional de Saúde (PNS) 2013 e 2019. Inicialmente identificou-se que, apesar da APS ter sido o principal serviço procurado mediante a necessidade de assistência, houve uma tendência de redução para esta procura em todas as regiões brasileiras, principalmente entre as mulheres idosas, na faixa etária de 60-69 anos e na população de raça/cor branca. Verificou-se um aumento de 15,2% no quantitativo de domicílios cadastrados na USF; 4,5% na procura por lugar, serviço ou profissional de saúde; e de 31,4% na população atendida. Os principais fatores de não atendimento foram não conseguir vaga/senha e não ter médico atendendo. E, dentre os investigados, verificou-se uma tendência de crescimento entre os que tinham o diagnóstico de Hipertensão arterial sistêmica, Diabetes mellitus e multimorbidades.

Abstract:
The article aims to contribute to the identification of conditions and trends in access and use of primary health care (PHC) services by elderly Brazilians in the years 2008, 2013 and 2019. For this purpose, a cross-sectional study in panels was carried out with a descriptive analysis of the percentages and confidence intervals of the variables listed, in which data on the elderly population investigated in the Health Supplement of the National Household Sample Survey (PNAD) of the year 2008 and of the National Health Survey (PNS) 2013 and 2019 were retrieved. It was identified that, although PHC was the main service sought after the need for assistance, there was a tendency of reduction for this demand in all Brazilian regions, among the elderly women, in the age group of 60-69 years and in the white race / color population. There was a 15,2% increase in the number of households registered with the USF; 4.5% in the search for a place, service or health professional; and 31,4% in the population served. The main factors of non-attendance were not being able to get a vacancy / password and not having a doctor attending. Among those investigated, there was a growth trend among those diagnosed with Hypertension, Diabetes mellitus and multimorbidities.
