Brazilian Academic Review of Primary Care-Sensitive Hospitalizations

A Brazilian academic review analyzes 21 scientific articles on Hospitalizations for Primary Care-Sensitive Conditions. The study was conducted by Francilene Jane Rodrigues Pereira using a descriptive and analytical review of articles from periodicals portals. The articles were divided by territorial coverage, with 42.7% from the Southeast region, 33.3% from the South, 9.6% each from the National and Midwest levels, and 4.8% from the Northeast.

Use Cases

• Analyzing regional trends in primary care-sensitive hospitalizations based on the territorial coverage of reviewed articles.
• Evaluating the effectiveness of primary care systems based on the reported stabilization and reduction trends.
• Conducting a meta-analysis of Brazilian academic literature on a specific public health indicator.

Strengths

• The review is based on 21 distinct scientific articles, providing a multi-source foundation.
• Includes a detailed breakdown of article coverage by Brazilian region (e.g., 42.7% Southeast, 33.3% South).
• Explicitly describes the methodological approach as a descriptive and analytical review.

Limitations

• The underlying dataset of articles is not directly provided; only the review's results are described.
• Column-level documentation for any compiled data is absent; field semantics must be inferred.
