Item Estudo sobre a epidemiologia dos acidentes com escorpiões no Estado de São Paulo - SP(Universidade Brasil, 2022-08-17) Almeida, Estelita Aparecida de Souza; Cogo, José Carlos; Magalhães, Daniel Souza FerreiraScorpionism is considered a public health problem in developing countries. In Brazil, scorpions are responsible for the highest number of accidents with venomous animals,exceeding the number of accidents with spiders and snakes. The present work aimedo study the epidemiology of the accident with scorpions in the municipality of Fernandópolis,comparing with those that occurred in the macro-region of the Regional Intermanagers Commission (CIR) and in the State of São Paulo. The study wasetrospective and the information was collected from existing information in the DATASUS database, which is a database open to the public (Department ofnformatics of the Unified Health System in Brazil) and SINAN (Information System forDiseases notification form. The period analyzed was from 2013 to 2017. Variablesrelated to the accident were analyzed: cases that occurred in the State of São Paulo, in the CIR region and in the municipality of Fernandópolis;victim-related variables:sex, race; age group, variables related to poisoning and treatment: time elapsedbetween the accident and care in the emergency room, classification of the case (mild,moderate and severe) and evolution of the case. This work also proposed to create afolder with information about scorpionism to be disseminated to the general population. Our results show that in this period there was a significant increase in accidents, withthe growth in the CIR region and the municipality of Fernandópolis greater than thegrowth in the state. Men were the most affected by scorpionism, and the age groupthat suffered the most from this type of accident was between 20 and 59 years old,with the white race being the most affected. Most accidents were classified as mild, State of São Paulo, and emergenrcy room that suffered the most from this type of accident was between 20 and 59 years old,with the white race being the most affected. Most accidents were classified as mild,with deaths only in the data relating to the State of São Paulo, and emergency roomcare occurred within the first hour after the accident. We conclude that the accidentwith scorpions is increasing in the studied regions and that there is an urgent need totake containment measures such as prioritizing the preservation of the environment, avoiding accumulation of garbage and debris and creating means of dissemination tothe population on how to avoid this type of accident. The results of this work and thefolder created containing information about scorpionism fill a gap in the scientific fieldof popular knowledge about the accident with scorpions and the first aid that should betaken in the case of an accident with scorpions. It is also a document to guide futurepublic policy proposals to combat scorpionism in the region.Item Incidência de escorpionismo no município de Ilha Solteira/SP no período de 2013 a 2019(Universidade Brasil, 2020) Feitosa, Alex Henrique de Mello; Andrade, Marco Antônio deIntroduction: Scorpions are arthropods that have lived on the planet for thousands of years, and have become a serious public health problem due to the large number of accidents.
