Objective: to analyze the trend of hospitalization rates for cardiovascular diseases in adults in Brazil.
Method: an ecological study, of time series, of hospitalization rates for cardiovascular diseases in adults by sex, age group and region of residence in Brazil from 2005 to 2016. Data from the Sistema de Informações Hospitalares do Sistema Único de Saúde (Hospital Information System of the Unified Health System) were used. For trend analysis, polynomial regression models were used.
Results: a downward trend in hospitalization rates for cardiovascular disease was detected across the country, with the Midwest region having the most significant decrease (-21.29 per year). The South region had the highest rates of hospitalization, including ischemic heart and cerebrovascular diseases.
Conclusion: Brazil showed a decreasing trend in hospitalization rates, yet they are still high. The results may have implications on health surveillance actions, especially in regions where hospitalization rates are high.
