摘要：Introduction: Parkinson's Disease (PD) is among the fastest growing neurological disorders in the world, characterized as the second most prevalent neurodegenerative disease. In Brazil, notification of PD is not mandatory, which makes it difficult to estimate its prevalence in the country. Objective: To outline the epidemiological profile of hospitalizations related to PD in Brazil, associating age group, sex of individuals affected with PD, time, character (urgent and elective) and hospitalization costs. Methodology: This was a descriptive, retrospective epidemiological study with a quantitative approach, with data obtained through consultation with the Department of Informatics of the Unified Health System (DATASUS). The population of interest was individuals with PD, reported in Brazil between January 2016 and December 2020, with a focus between 60 and 89 years old. Results and Discussion: It was found between 2016 and 2020, the highest number of admissions of individuals with PD occurred with patients aged 60 to 79 years, with males being more affected by the number of admissions and deaths. The Southeast showed the highest number of hospitalizations and the Northeast the highest average length of stay. The total number of deaths was 281, generating costs of 19 million reais. Conclusion: The data obtained revealed patterns that remain stable over the years, according to region, gender, deaths and age group, although there are possible problems with underreporting and lack of information. Thus, the need for further studies for future delineations of the epidemiological patterns of PD in Brazil is clear.
