ABSTRACT
Abstract

Objectives:

to identify spatial pattern on hospitalization rates of children with diarrhea in the counties in São Paulo State.

Methods:

ecological and exploratory study on hospitalized data of children with diarrhea under the age of four in 2008 and 2012, the IDH mothers with low schooling level and children living with a low income less than half minimum wage were obtained from Datasus and inserted into digital map of the counties in São Paulo State. Moran's global index (I) and Pearson's coefficients correlation and thematic maps of hospitalization rates of 1,000 children, Moran maps and kernel map were calculated.

Results:

there were 34, 802 hospital admissions, with an average rate of 4.7 hospitalizations / 1,000 children (SD=7.2). Hospitalization rates were correlated only with schooling (r= 0.09, p<0.05). Moran's index for hospitalization rate was I=0.31(p<0.01). The thematic map of the hospital admission rates showed a cluster of counties in the west of the State; the kernel map showed a higher density of hospitalization in this region and the Moran map identified 57 counties which deserve attention.

Conclusions:

the results provide subsidies for the counties and regional managers to implement measurements aiming to reduce these rates.
RESUMO
Resumo

Objetivos:

identificar padrão espacial para taxas de internação por diarreia em crianças nos municípios do estado de São Paulo.

Métodos:

estudo ecológico e exploratório, com dados de internação por diarréia em crianças com até quatro anos de idade, de 2008 e 2012, IDH, proporções de mães com baixa escolaridade, e crianças que vivem em famílias com renda menor que meio salário mínimo obtidos do Datasus e inseridos em malha digital dos municípios de São Paulo. Foram calculados índices de Moran global (I) e coeficientes de correlação de Pearson e construídos mapas temáticos das taxas de internação por 1000 crianças, mapas de Moran e mapa de kernel.

Resultados:

houve 34802 internações, média no período de 4,7 internações/1000 crianças (dp = 7,2). As taxas de internação estiveram correlacionadas com a escolaridade (r=0,09; p<0,05). O índice de Moran para a taxa de internação foi I = 0,31 (p<0,01). O mapa temático das taxas de internação mostrou aglomerado de municípios no oeste do estado; o mapa de kernel mostra uma maior densidade de internação nesta região e o mapa de Moran identificou 57 municípios que merecem atenção.

Conclusões:

os resultados fornecem subsídios para os gestores municipais e regionais na implantação de medidas visando a redução dessas taxas.
