Abstract

This article aims to analyze the epidemiological profile of patients hospitalized for stroke in Brazil between January 2018 and December 2022. This study is characterized as a descriptive, retrospective and analytical epidemiological study, in which the information was obtained from the Hospital Information System in the Information Technology Department of the Unified Health System (DATASUS). In the period analyzed, 820,394 hospitalizations for stroke were recorded in Brazil. Regarding geographic regions, the largest number of hospitalizations is concentrated in the Southeast region. Regarding age group, patients aged 70 or over were the most affected, representing a total of 215,273 hospitalizations. It is concluded that, through the aforementioned data, it is possible to state that the vast majority of patients are elderly, where the values ​​rise abruptly from 50 years of age onwards, and belonging to the mixed race and male gender, in which men presented a higher absolute number of deaths.
