Abstract
Objective: The objective of this study was to analyze epidemiological data on the prevalence of leprosy in the Aging and Notification Information System (SINAN), from 2014 to 2017. Methodology: For the analysis of the data, graphs were tabulated in the excel program to better represent the variables: Prevalence, location, gender, age, schooling, affected neighborhoods, and types of exit. Results: There were 224 cases of leprosy, 51, 34% male and 48%, 66% female. The most affected age group was the economically active group of up to 40 years and schooling was predominantly low. Regarding the type of output, it was observed that more than half of the patients were cured. Conclusion: The results showed that an intensive action of enlightenment on the disease is necessary so that the entire population knows how the transmission, treatment and prevention of the disease occur, thus reducing prejudice and, thus, increasing the search for adequate treatment.
