OBJECTIVE: To analyze the occurrence of common mental disorders (CMDs) and associated factors in people with leprosy with complications in the state of Mato Grosso, Brazil, in 2018.
METHODS: This was a cross-sectional study with people attending Júlio Müller University Hospital. The Self-Report-Questionnaire (SRQ-20) was used. Poisson regression analysis was performed to estimate prevalence ratios (PR) and 95% confidence intervals (95%CI).
RESULTS: Among 206 people with leprosy, CMDs were found in 70.4% (95%CI 61.10;76.67) and were associated with the female sex (PR=1.29 - 95%CI 1.09;1.53), the 26-45 age range (PR=1.52 - 95%CI 1.09;2.11) and the 46-60 age range (PR=1.40 - 95%CI 1.01;1.95), low family income (PR=1.25 - 95%CI 1.05;1.49), and unsatisfactory quality of life in the physical domain (PR=3.03 - 95%CI 1.12;8.19) and the psychological domain (PR=1.91; 95%CI 1.40;2.61).
CONCLUSION: CMDs were frequent and associated with female sex, productive age group, low income and unsatisfactory quality of life. Actions aimed at mental health in this population group are necessary.
