Risk and Protective Factor Indicators Management Committee: methodological approach in the construction of indicators of the interagency health information network (Ripsa), 2023.
To describe the role of the Risk and Protective Factors Indicator Management Committee (RPF CGI) in the resumption and update of the Interagency Health Information Network (Rede Interagencial de Informações para a Saúde - Ripsa) indicator matrix in 2023, highlighting the sustainability of data sources and validation processes.
Interinstitutional technical meetings were held between 2023 and 2025, involving 36 institutions, to review, define, and validate the indicators using a standardized indicator qualification form. A consensus was reached to use data from the Surveillance System for Risk and Protective Factors for Chronic Diseases by Telephone Survey (Sistema de Vigilância de Fatores de Risco e Proteção para Doenças Crônicas por Inquérito Telefônico - Vigitel), National Study of Infant Feeding and Nutrition (Estudo Nacional de Alimentação e Nutrição Infantil - Enani), Live Birth Information System (Sistema de Informações sobre Nascidos Vivos - Sinasc), National Health Survey (Pesquisa Nacional de Saúde - PNS), Household Budget Survey (Pesquisa de Orçamentos Familiares - POF), National School Health Survey (Pesquisa Nacional de Saúde do Escolar - PeNSE), National Demographic and Health Survey (Pesquisa Nacional de Demografia e Saúde - PNDS), Annual Industrial Survey - Product (Pesquisa Industrial Anual - Produto - PIA-Produto), National Survey on Health and Nutrition (Pesquisa Nacional sobre Saúde e Nutrição - PNSN), and National Oral Health Survey (Pesquisa Nacional de Saúde Bucal - SB Brasil). The matrix was expanded to 39 indicators, distributed across nine dimensions: noncommunicable chronic diseases, alcohol consumption, smoking, physical activity, nutritional status, dietary intake, childbirth, violence, and oral health.
The RPF CGI contributed to the qualification and sustainability of Ripsa indicators, which are essential for monitoring public policies, supporting evidence-based decision-making, and addressing health inequalities, aligning with national and international agendas such as the Sustainable Development Goals.
