Abstract

The objective of this study was to know the prevalence of full motor difficulty (MD) (walking or climbing stairs) and according to degrees (mild, moderate, severe) in the Brazilian states and in the country; present the federal expenditures on prostheses, orthotics and materials (OPM) related to such difficulty; and verify the correlation between the prevalence of disabilities and public expenditures on OPM. Population data was used from every major city in Brazil, obtained from the IBGE website, and OPM expenditures related to MD, extracted from the DATASUS website in 2010. Data was analyzed through the prevalence of MD and OPM expenses related to MD. We used the Stata 11 software for the implementation of the Spearman correlation test with a significance level of 5%. The prevalence of MD in Brazil in the year of 2010 was 6.91%; ranging from 8.63% (state of Alagoas) to 5.28% (state of Tocantins). The expenditures on OPM varied according to the state, and these expenditures were proportional to the prevalence of MD in the cities of the states of Acre and Piauí (orthotics); Pernambuco (prostheses), and Acre and Maranhão (equipment). The correlation between the amount spent and the prevalence of MD was inverse in the cities of the states of Espírito Santo, Minas Gerais, Paraná, Rio Grande do Sul, Santa Catarina and São Paulo (orthotics); Espírito Santo, Minas Gerais, Paraná, Rio Grande do Sul, Santa Catarina and São Paulo (prostheses); and Espírito Santo, Minas Gerais, Rio Grande do Sul and São Paulo (equipment).
