ENQUADRAMENTO: A Hanseníase é uma patologia infectocontagiosa, crônica e cu-rável, causada pelo Mycobacteria Leprae, com predileção pelo sistema nervoso perifé-rico.
OBJETIVOS Determinar as formas clínicas e a classificação operacional dos portado-res de hanseníase; Identificar o grau de incapacidade dos pacientes diagnosticados com Hanseníase;
MÉTODOS: Estudo transversal, com abordagem quantitativa de natureza descritiva, realizado com 104 pacientes diagnosticados com Hanseníase. Os dados foram retira-dos do Sistema de Informação de Notificação de Agravos Notificáveis – SINAN. A maioria era do sexo masculino 63 (60,6%) com uma média de idades de 37 anos, sendo o grupo etário mais representativo o dos 27 aos 37 anos. 49% se consideravam da cor parda e 34,6% detinham o ensino fundamental completo.
RESULTADOS: As formas clínicas e a classificação operacional dos portadores de hanseníase revelaram que 47,1% eram paucibacilares e 52,9% multibacilares e que 32% foram diagnosticados com a forma Dimorfa e 26% Tuberculóide. O grau de inca-pacidade física (GIF) no diagnóstico foi o seguinte: grau 0 - 73 (70,20%); grau I - 17 (16,35%) e 9 (8,65%) possuíam deformidades instalados de grau II.
CONCLUSÕES: A ocorrência de incapacidades originadas pela Hanseníase no Brasil é ainda um problema de saúde pública, pelo que a busca ativa de casos na comunida-de, o exame dos contatos domiciliares, o acompanhamento dos pacientes pelas uni-dades de saúde, as campanhas educativas e investigações com alunos nas escolas são exemplos de políticas que devem ser implementadas para que se consiga reduzir a endemia e as suas sequelas.

Abstract BACKGROUND: Leprosy is an infectious disease, chronic and curable, caused by Mycobacteria leprae, with predilection for the peripheral nervous system. OBJECTIVES: To determine the clinical forms and the operational classification of leprosy patients; Identify the degree of disability of patients diagnosed with leprosy; METHODS: Cross-sectional study with a quantitative approach of a descriptive nature, carried out with 104 patients diagnosed with leprosy. Data were taken from the System Notification of Notifiable Diseases Information - SINAN. Most were males 63 (60.6%) with a mean age of 37 years, being the most representative age group of the 27 to 37 years. 49% considered themselves the mulatto and 34.6% held full primary education. RESULTS: Clinical forms and operational classification of leprosy patients revealed that 47.1% were paucibacillary and multibacillary 52.9% and 32% were diagnosed with Borderline form and 26% Tuberculoid. The degree of physical disability (GIF) the diag-nosis was as follows: grade 0-73 (70.20%); Grade I - 17 (16.35%) and 9 (8.65%) had installed deformities grade II. CONCLUSIONS: The occurrence of disabilities caused by the leprosy in Brazil is still a public health problem and is the active search for cases in the community, the exami-nation of household contacts, monitoring of patients by health facilities, educational campaigns and investigations students in schools are examples of policies that should be implemented so that it can reduce the endemic disease and its sequelae. KEYWORDS: chronic granulomatous disease, leprosy, degree of disability
