Implementação de coordenação de segurança e saúde em projeto em obras de reabilitação

The safety coordination during the design phase still remains a challenge at several levels, especially when dealing with refurbishment projects. Either by lack of knowledge of the existing construction (for intervention), and its surroundings, or by the protection of the cultural and historical patrimonial values, or even, by the well known difficulty that the safety coordinator has, in his intervention in any project. The incorporation of the general principles of prevention, the difficulty of the coordinator to be heard by all the actors, to anticipate all risks associated in the construction and the prevision of the respective preventive measures, those are some examples of the obstacles that the design safety coordinator will face. This article intends to give some good practices of safety coordination acts, list all that it encompasses, and emphasizing its importance.

Mother's anxiety and depression during the third pregnancy trimester and neonate's mother versus stranger's face/voice visual preference

Background: Neonates show visual preference for their mother's face/voice and shift their attention from their mother to a stranger's face/voice after habituation. Aim: To assess neonate's mother versus stranger's face/voice visual preference, namely mother's anxiety and depression during the third pregnancy trimester and neonate's: 1) visual preference for the mother versus the stranger's face/voice (pretest visual preference), 2) habituation to the mother's face/voice and 3) visual preference for the stranger versus the mother's face/voice (posttest visual preference). Method: Mothers (N=100) filled out the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS) and the State Anxiety Inventory (STAI) both at the third pregnancy trimester and childbirth, and the “preference and habituation to the mother's face/voice versus stranger” paradigm was administered to their newborn 1 to 5 days after childbirth. Results: Neonates of anxious/depressed mothers during the third pregnancy trimester contrarily to neonates of non-anxious/non-depressed mothers did not look 1) longer at their mother's than at the stranger's face/voice at the pretest visual preference (showing no visual preference for the mother), nor 2) longer at the stranger's face/voice in the posttest than in the pretest visual preference (not improving their attention to the stranger's after habituation). Conclusion: Infants exposed to mother's anxiety/depression at the third gestational trimester exhibit less perceptual/social competencies at birth.
