OBJECTIVE: to describe causes of hospitalization and comorbidities of patients diagnosed with substance abuse / dependence admitted to an Intensive Care Unit. METHOD: retrospective, descriptive-exploratory, cross-sectional and quantitative study. RESULTS: a total of 865 medical records were analyzed between 2012 and 2015. The prevalence of substance use was 51.9%, of these 22% of total alcohol users and 48.7% tobacco. Among the users with diagnosed dependence, the main causes of hospitalization were Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (100%) and digestive hemorrhage (84%) and most patients presented more than one comorbidity simultaneously.
