SUMMARY:

Introduction: Research related to the study of disability is becoming increasingly frequent, presenting the importance of recording reliable data about disabilities, activity limitations and participation restrictions, as well as contextual factors that may influence levels of disability. disability of the population. In 2011, the WHO announced the creation of the Model Disability Survey (MDS), this instrument being based on the biopsychosocial model of health and an important predictor of health. Objective: To describe and analyze the population profile through the Brief Model Disability Survey (MDS) in Santa Cruz, Rio Grande do Norte. Methods: This is a descriptive pilot study, carried out through a population survey. Participants over the age of 18 of both sexes, with or without disabilities, were considered eligible. Those who refused to answer all the questions in the questionnaire, those with apparent cognitive disability, as well as those who dropped out were excluded. A questionnaire on sociodemographic characteristics and the Brief MDS (40 questions) were used. The sample distribution was presented using absolute and relative frequency and the descriptive analysis was carried out using measures of central tendency and dispersion. Results: there was a predominance of an adult audience, with the majority being women. The most prevalent self-reported health conditions were systemic arterial hypertension and anxiety. The environmental factors indicated as facilitators were mainly related to places frequented, residence and social support. The report of body pain was prevalent in the population studied, and is also an important support for the development of actions aimed at promoting health and preventing injuries. With regard to personal assistance, this role seems to be represented mainly by a female figure with family ties, involving social and economic issues that affect the quality of life of these individuals.
