SUMMARY:

Introduction: Chronic spine problems are strongly present in society and have a relevant impact on public health due to their high prevalence and the rate of disability and absenteeism that they cause in the population. Much has been discussed about the possible causes of these problems, however little emphasis has been given to the social context and public policies involved in its genesis. In addition, further research is needed on the influence of lifestyle habits, such as the use of technologies and the management of these cases in primary health care. In addition to these aspects, these conditions can generate high waiting lines, increasing the waiting time for the treatment of these conditions. An organized PHC can reduce this high number of cases, in addition to contributing to infectious and contagious conditions, such as Covid-19. This thesis aims to analyze in a broader way the factors that may be associated with chronic spinal problems, as well as the impact of Primary Health Care on Covid-19 management and on the waiting time for the specialized physiotherapy service. Methodology: it is divided into four studies. 1) cross-sectional study, with multilevel analysis of factors associated with chronic back problems, based on the National Health Survey; 2) case-control study, with analysis of factors associated with chronic neck pain in young adults, based on primary data; 3) cross-sectional study, with multilevel analysis of factors associated with waiting time for specialized physiotherapy services, based on the National Program for Improving Access and Quality of Primary Care; and 4) time series with data on diagnosed cases of COVID-19 and their deaths as outcomes in the capitals of the Northeast region of Brazil. Results: a higher prevalence of chronic spine problems was found in females (PR = 1.23; 95% CI 1.15-1.30), aged over 49 years (PR = 1.75; 95% CI 1.1 -1.90), and in individuals who perform heavy activities at work (PR = 1.37; 95% CI 1.28-1.46). It was associated with worse self-assessment of health status (PR = 3.92; 95% CI 3.03-5.07), greater number of days with perception of depression (PR = 1.70; 95% CI 1.50-1, 94), and the presence of smoking habits (PR = 1.37; 95% CI 1.27-1.48). There was also an association for chronic spine problems in cities with a higher proportion of NASF per inhabitants (PR = 1.28; 95% CI 1.07-1.54). For chronic neck pain in young adults, a greater association was observed in individuals with greater sedentary behavior (OR = 2.41; 95% CI 1.01-5.88) and with vision problems (OR = 2.83; 95% CI 1 , 26-6.38). No association was found between chronic neck pain and postural habits and use of a cell phone. As for the waiting time for the specialized physiotherapy service, less referral time was found in the health teams that received support for the planning and organization of the work process (p <0.0001), in those that provide information about the health situation. health (p <0.0016), in teams that have a counter-reference (p <0.0001) and in teams that are supported by the NASF physiotherapist (p <0.0001. In the management of Covid, a greater coverage of PHC (p=0.01), in addition to a higher rate of social isolation (p=0.001) were shown to be mitigating factors for the dissemination of COVID-19 and its deaths. Conclusion: There is an association of chronic spinal problems with both biological and behavioral factors, and an importance of organization and greater coverage of PHC, both for a reduction in the time of referral to the specialized physiotherapy service, and in the management of Covid-19 , with a greater attenuation of cases and deaths in locations with greater coverage of PHC.
