RESUMO:

Introduction: In 2016 it was recorded a significant increase in illness by chikungunya fever in Brazil, especially in the Northeast, one of the highlights of the state of Rio Grande do Norte, with incidence rate almost six times higher than the national and 37 confirmed deaths. In this sense, one of the greatest challenges in the treatment of Chikungunya fever is the possibility of chronification, not yet being well understood all the impacts and characteristics of this disease.  Objective: To evaluate the impact of chronicity of chikungunya fever in the quality of life and functionality. Materials and Methods: This is a cross-sectional descriptive comparative study with a quantitative approach was undertaken in two stages, the first being a cross-sectional descriptive study of 103 cases confirmed to FChik Natal-RN subsequently screened with at least one year after the disease to conduct a telephone survey to collect aspects of chronic phase. The second step was a cross-sectional study, which compared the FChik group consisting of chronic patients FChik 25 (traced in step 1) and the healthy group (SG) consisted of 25 healthy subjects matched for age and sex. The two groups responded to the HAQ and SF-12.Results: In the first stage, the most prominent joint symptoms in the acute phase were arthralgia and back pain; already in the chronic phase were joint pain and periarticular edema. 65.2% reported damage to the work by illness and absenteeism time mostly between 7 and 30 days. Comparing the FChik and GS,  losses were found in functional capacity and quality of life in FChik (p <0.05) group. The most affected aspects were HAQ Walk category, and Bodily Pain domain of the SF-12, the GChik also showed increased risk for developing depression. Conclusions: Even elapsed over a year of illness, patients who were still in the chronic phase of FChik presented impairments in functionality and quality of life, with losses to carry out daily activities.
