摘要:Backgound and Objectives: New perspectives for the treatment of human rabies turn the focus toward the conduct of professionals providing human anti-rabies treatment, increasing promptness in initiating treatment and perception of risk, making this conduct more efficient. This study aimed to assess the conduct of public health professionals in the municipality of Primavera do Leste/MT, when providing human anti-rabies treatment. Furthermore, we sought to characterize the profile of these treatments. Methods: the present was a qualitative-quantitative, exploratory and documentary study. A total of 188 files from SINAN reported between the years 2007 and 2008 were analyzed. Results: dogs were responsible for most attacks, with 166 reports (88.3%), with 166 bites as the primary route of exposure (88.3%); the age group 2-10 years was the most prevalent, with 59 cases (31.4%), predominantly males, with 116 records (61.7%) and the predominant professional conduct was observation, vaccine, with 91 records (48.4%). Conclusion: Compared to the current protocol, half (50%) of the procedures were inadequate and among these, 55 (58.5%) were due to a technical error in the notification form and 39 (41.5%) due to potential hazard risk for the victim. It was concluded that better professional training, both in the sense of treatment, as well as awareness on the importance of reliable information records can consolidate an adequate surveillance system.
