- Abstract
Objective: To analyze reported cases of physical violence in Espírito Santo from 2011 to 2018. Methods: Cross-sectional analytical study, with notifications made in the Notifiable Diseases Information System (SINAN). The dependent variable was physical violence and the independent variables were the characteristics of the victim, aggressor and aggression. Data were analyzed using Stata 14.0. Results: The frequency of notification of physical violence was 56.2% (95%CI: 55.7-56.8). The following were associated with this condition: being a man, adult, black/brown race/color, without disability/disorder and resident of a rural area. The attackers were mostly adult men, suspected of using alcohol during the event, involving more than one person. The attack occurred more on public roads and was not repeated. Conclusion: Physical violence is the most frequent among all types of violence, highlighting the importance of identifying, embracing and preventing this problem.
