The present study seeks to understand tooth loss by investigating the social representations in the daily life of elderly individuals, thus characterizing itself as a comparative and analytic research. It is known that tooth loss is a common occurrence in elderly individuals, interfering at the psychosocial and biological levels, through its functional, esthetical and social implications. The area of oral health in Brazil is lacking studies on this topic, especially with respect to the psychosocial aspects of the elderly. The Theory of Social Representations and the Central Nucleus Theory were selected for theoretical-methodological support. The Free Association of Words Test was used, whose inducing stimulus were the words tooth loss , in which each subject was asked to associate 3 words, to respond to a questionnaire related to socio-economic conditions and containing an investigation of tooth loss, access to odontological services and the need for dental treatment, and to undergo a focus group interview. The study sample consisted of 120 individuals 60 years of age or over, resident in Natal, RN, Brazil and participants of the Live Together to Live Better group of the Basic Health Unit of Felipe Camaro Residential District and Unati (Open University of the Elderly); an interview was performed with 36 subjects. Data analysis was performed by Evoc 2000, SPSS/99, Graph Pad and Alceste softwares. The results demonstrate that the central nucleus of the social representations of tooth loss for the Live Together group emerged from the difficulty in eating categories, showing a relation between physiologic necessity, desire and pleasure from eating, not to mention the pain that resulted from justifying the tooth loss. Besides the central discourses, the following peripheral elements were gathered: difficulty in adapting to the prosthesis, treatment and difficulty in speaking. All of these categories, except the last, also comprised the class themes of the group interview. For the Unati group the central nucleus emerged from the socio-economic difficulties categories, demonstrating a narrow relation between poverty, access to health and education and esthetics, confirming in the discourse of common sense, the association between tooth loss and aging. At the margin of the central discourses was collected the peripheral element difficulty in adapting to the prosthesis, found both in the Live Together and Unati groups, which expresses the resistance of the subject to this new situation and the failure of the rehabilitation treatment in the sense of reviving the memory of their natural teeth. All of these categories also constitute the class themes of the of the group interview. Thus, through the study of the social representations, we can reveal a reality in the perspective of the social subjects, contemplating the multiple facets of the social-cultural reality experienced by these individuals

The aim of this study was to evaluate the pain influence regarding location, intensity and duration over functional capacity in institutionalized elderly (Fundacao Leur Brito). This is a descriptive exploratory study with a transversal design and quantitative approach. The population of the study was composed of 60 elderly, being 50% males with 60 years-old minimum age and 104 years-old maximum age, with mean age 77,6 (?}11,64) years-old. Data was collected by a structured query formulary divided in four parts: 1) Social, health and demographic characterization; 2) Pain related aspects (time and location); 3) Pain evaluation by numeric scale and 4) Functional capacity measured by Barthel Index. It was observed after evaluation by Squared-chi test (x2) statistical significant difference between pain presence and Barthel Index activities: bath (pvalue=0,015), dressing (p-value= 0,041), intimal hygiene transference (p-value=0,001), chair and bed transference (p-value=0,032), walking (p-value=0,010) and go upstairs (p-value=0,008). It was also observed statistical difference between total Barthel score (dependent/independent) and pain presence, p-value<0, 000. Through data obtained by this study, a multiprofessional approach is necessary to proper pain control and maintenance and/or regain of functional capacity, leading to an increase in life quality with more independence and autonomy to elderly

O propsito dessa investigao foi o de estudar as situaes objetivas e de auto-percepo em saúde bucal de idosos residentes em Instituies de Longa Permanncia de Idosos (ILPIS) distribudos em 11 municpios pertencentes as 5 regies geogrficas do Brasil. Metodologia: Trata-se de estudo seccional atravs de um censo com idosos institucionalizados no Brasil. Foram avaliados 1192 indivduos, residentes em 36 Instituies de Longa Permanncia de Idosos (ILPIS), distribudas em 11 municpios. Deste universo, 587 (49,2%) responderam ao GOHAI. Foi aplicado questionrio com questes subjetivas e sobre o comportamento em saúde bucal, alm de levantamento epidemiolgico seguindo critrios da Organizao Mundial da Saúde (OMS). Foram realizados os testes de Mann-Whitney, Kruskal-Wallis, Exato de Fisher, Qui-quadrado e Regresso logstica mltipla. Resultados: A idade mdia foi de 74,98 (+ 9,5). Destes, 51,4% (302) eram do sexo masculino e 152 (25,9) apresentavam alguma dependncia. A mdia do CPOD foi de 28,8 (+ 5,5) e 54,5% (320) dos idosos eram edntulos. Constatouse que 54,2% (318) e 74,1% (435) no usam nenhum tipo de prtese superior e inferior, respectivamente. O CPI e PIP mostraram que 64,4% (378) apresentaram todos os sextantes excludos. O GOHAI mostrou que 75% (440) dos indivduos apresentava auto-percepo positiva em saúde bucal. As variveis ltima visita ao dentista (RP ajust=4,058; IC=1,526-10,789), presena de problemas gengivais (RP ajust=5,703; IC=1,754-18,544) e opinio sobre os dentes, as gengivas ou prtese (RP ajust=19,514; IC=5,075-75,041) permaneceram significativas no modelo aps regresso logstica mltipla. Concluses: Observou-se predomnio da auto-percepo positiva em saúde bucal em detrimento das precrias condies bucais. Assim, para a populao institucionalizada, o presente estudo recomenda a aplicao de levantamentos epidemiolgicos e de auto-percepo para assegurar adequado planejamento nas aes de saúde bucal

O presente estudo objetivou analisar as caractersticas epidemiolgicas das condies de saúde bucal de 98 idosos de uma Instituio de Longa Permanncia para Idosos (ILPI) e de 125 participantes de Grupos de Convivncia, de bairros perifricos, socialmente semelhantes, de Fortaleza, Cear, Brasil, para orientao do tratamento odontolgico. Investigou-se a autopercepo em saúde bucal desses idosos a fim de realizar uma avaliao comparativa entre eles e com os levantamentos epidemiolgicos de base nacional (SB Brasil) e de base estadual (SB Cear). Devido a alguns idosos da ILPI recusarem o tratamento dentrio e a identificao do elevado percentual de demenciados, optou-se por realizar uma avaliao cognitiva, o Mini Exame do Estado Mental (MEEM) visando identificar os aptos reabilitao oral. Mtodos: abordagem epidemiolgica do tipo transversal, sendo a coleta de dados realizada por cinco examinadores, utilizando os critrios recomendados pela OMS (1997). Resultados: O CPO-D mdio encontrado na ILPI, foi de 29,88, com predomnio do componente perdido (93,27%) enquanto o CPO-D mdio dos no institucionalizados fixou-se em 30,17, com predomnio do componente perdido (63,70%). Tambm se avaliou o uso e a necessidade de prtese dentria: dos residentes na ILPI, 10,20% usavam prtese superior e 3,06%, inferior; 94,90% necessitavam de prtese superior e 97,96% de inferior; sendo a prtese total foi o tipo mais prevalente, 88,78% para ambos os arcos. O percentual do uso de prtese dos no institucionalizados foi 71,20% no arco superior, sendo 66,40% prtese total; j para o arco inferior, 32,80%, das quais 31,20% era prtese total. No presente estudo, tanto para uso quanto para necessidade, considerando ambos os arcos, a diferena entre os idosos institucionalizados e no institucionalizados foi estatisticamente significativa pelo teste Qui - quadrado (p<0,001). Como resultado do MEEM, observou-se deteriorao cognitiva (escore ≤ 12) em 37,25% dos entrevistados, bem como um declnio cognitivo com o avano da idade. Concluses: Os resultados apontam que h um maior percentual de uso de prtese total no arco superior e maior frequncia quanto ausncia de prteses de qualquer tipo no arco inferior. Evidenciou-se que os idosos pesquisados foram submetidos a tratamento mutilador e, como consequncia necessitam de reabilitao oral, o que pressupe a necessidade de polticas pblicas para que isso ocorra efetivamente. Os participantes deste estudo caracterizam-se por uma autopercepo positiva da sua saúde bucal, a despeito das condies clnicas insatisfatrias e de precria saúde bucal, com acentuada prevalncia de crie dentria e edentulismo. O MEEM revelou deficincia cognitiva na maioria dos idosos, confirmando que a sua aplicao, previamente reabilitao oral pode evitar desperdcios financeiros.Tais achados refletem a necessidade de implantao de polticas reabilitadoras em saúde bucal voltadas para o idoso; baseadas na perspectiva da integralidade como princpio doutrinrio do Sistema nico de Saúde, o que redundaria numa melhor qualidade de vida, tanto pela melhor mastigao, digesto e nutrio, pelo maior aproveitamento dos alimentos, quanto pelo favorecimento comunicao, pela dico e fala, contribuindo para a socializao e consequente elevao da autoestima dessa clientela.

Demographic and epidemiological transformations have led to an increase in elderly populations in the world, and chronic diseases become the main health problem in this population, with consequences for the independence and autonomy, and interfering in the lifestyle and daily activities, and may decrease the welfare and quality of life. So, there is an urgent need for multidisciplinary research on the quality of life, understood as a multidimensional and subjective concept, as well as the associated factors, such as health habits, presence of chronic conditions and functional capacity. Thus, In qualitative terms, the Article 1 provides an assessment and perception of the elderly about their quality of life. Article 2, in turn, presents the results of more extensive quantitative research, which can be seen that age, presence of chronic diseases and depression were associated with the quality of life. Thus, we discuss the need for action was planning and health strategies, with interdisciplinary approach, considering the environmental context and reality of family elders, promoting quality in the process of aging

This study aims to analyze social representations of elders to their fragile situation at home, with the presence of one or more characteristics, as defined by the Brazilian Ministry of Health. It is a descriptive and qualitative study, based on methodological -principles of the Theory of Social Representations. Setting was the homes of elderly residents in the area ascribed to a Family Health Unit (FHU) in the city of Natal. A total of 10 elderly subjects, whose choice was intentional and according to the need for USF home visit in a period of time, considering the saturation process of the information. As collection procedures were used the semi-structured interview and participant observation in accordance with the ethical rules of Resolution No. 196/96, with the assent of the Ethics and Research UFRN. To analyze the results, it was used the thematic content analysis in the aspect of preparation of representations, focusing on the totality of the discourse of the subjects. The results indicate that most study participants felt difficult to give meaning to the terms weakness and to be weak, although many present one or more aspects of the syndrome of frailty. From the content analysis of participants speeches in this study, we achieved the following categories: fragility as illness and disease as aging, aging and frailty as causes of changes and difficulties in daily life, the presence of family life in the fragile elderly, fragility as weakness and the risk for falls, the perception of being weak like a different person in addition to the absence of fragility in elderly life. Thus, through the processes of anchoring and objectification, the "fragile being" became familiar and concrete, showing that the meaning of weakness, besides the scientific definition found in the reified universes, can be reinterpreted and built within the consensus universes. About the care received by the staff of Family Health, from the viewpoint of older people there seems to be an understanding about the role of professional nurses; on the other hand, older people often mention the role of the Community Health Agent

Introduction: Falls among older adults is a public health problem, therefore it is necessary preventive actions, however the adherence is the major problem faced by practitioners and researchers working on falls prevention programs. Objective: To evaluate the variables related to the adherence to falls prevention programs among the elderly enrolled in a Basic Health Unit (BHU). Methods: Was performed an observational cross-sectional analytical study. All elderly registered in a BHU and able to ambulate independently were invited to participate in a falls prevent program. The Elderly who Adhered to the Program (EAP) were evaluated at BHU; and the Elderly Not Adhered to the Program (ENAP) were identified and assessed at home. The assessment for both groups was performed using an evaluation form containing personal data, measures and clinical scales to assess cognitive status, balance, mobility, fear of falling, handgrip strength. Data were analyzed with SPSS 20.0. In addition to this assessment, the ENAP underwent a semi structured interview, in which we used the qualitative approach based on the figure of the Collective Subject Discourse. Results: The study included 222 elderly, 111 EAP and 111ENAP, most aged between 70 and 79 years (48.2%), female (68.5%), married (52.3%) and illiterate (47.7%). Consolidated as protective factors for adherence, worst rates of physical activity (p = 0.001), balance (p = 0.010) and cognition (p = 0.007). The interview of ENAP identified two themes: "Local implementation of programs for the prevention of falls" and "Relationship between BHU and the elderly health care," and found that the elderly who did not adhere were unable to displace and did not mention that primary care programs are related to health care in elderly. Conclusions: Elderly who do not adhere to the program differ from elderly who adhere as worst indices of cognition, balance and physical activity which implies greater risk of falling; and they were unable to participate in falls prevention program and by to be caregiver and showed displacement difficult

The contents introduction concerning the individual health cares reveals important since the school education. In this direction, the present study objectified to know an effect of Oral Health education intervention in the oral hygiene and in the schools children information level, of 4 e 5 basic education years. The study was composed by two groups, chosen of random form: control group (n = 115) and experimental group (n = 132), with 247 public net school children in total sample. The experimental group participated of some educative activities in Oral Health, with biweekly frequency, during the 4 months period, given for a surgeon-dentistry. Both the groups were submitted to a clinical examination for a previous verification of the Plaque Index (PI) and of Loe Silness Gingival Index (GI). A questionnaire with closed questions on Oral Health was applied before and after to verify the school children rightness index. After the intervention, the final data, represented for the PI, GI and Rightness Index verification, has been collected for statistical analyses through the chi-square test to a 95 % of reliable level, using the SPSS 10,0 software. The PI and GI were categorized in high and low on the initials index basis medium; already the Rightness Index was categorized in inadequate (< 50%) and adequate (≥ 50%). It was verified that the PI (p = 0,014; IC 0.24-0.86) and the GI (p = 0,013; IC 0,28-0,84) presented differences statistically significant, after the education activities, when compared to with the control, favoring the experimental group. It was verified too the experimental group got greater rightness index, presenting difference highly significant (p<0,0001; IC 3,73-26,81). It was still observed that there was no association between the oral hygiene indicators and the school children information level. Ahead the results, it can been concluded that education activities related in the school routine were capable to give positives effects in the oral hygiene control and in the information level about Oral Health, however, not necessarily, the individual with bigger information is that one who has practiced an oral hygiene more adjusted. One become necessary, however, that the education in Oral Health occurs of permanent and integrated form with others school actors, for the positive effect does not lose the student s life longterm

Population aging is one of the greatest challenges to contemporary public health and, in this perspective, the functional capacity emerges as an important feature in geriatric assessment. The oral health of elderly, in turn, deserves special attention because, historically, in the dental services, this population group was not considered a priority for attention, which is verified by high rates of edentulism found even among these individuals. The present study proposes to examine the relationship between oral health status and functional capacity in an elderly population. To this end, intra-oral epidemiological examination was performed to assess the degree of dental caries, periodontal status, use and need of prosthesis and the presence of lesions. Functional capacity was assessed by the Independence in Activities of Daily Living, which considers the independence or not in the performance of six self-care functions. Socioeconomic and demographic characteristics and general health status were also investigated, in view of the possibility of intervention of these variables in the investigated relation. An factor analysis of the principal components was conducted which resulted four indicators of oral health conditions, representative of the population studied. 441 seniors were enrolled with mean age of 71.7 ( 8.7) years, the majority being female (68%). Functional capacity was dichotomized into completely independent individuals (89.6%) and dependent on at least one of the functions considered (10.4%). There was an association between functional capacity and the indicators related to the presence of many teeth and dental caries, and to that associated with the use and need of prostheses. These associations in turn, lost statistical significance when adjusting for confounding variables, combined in separate models for each indicator. Some of these variables, however, remained associated with functional capacity. It is considered that the study of oral health status of elderly, associeted with the search for an association with functional capacity is important in the construction of indicators necessary for planning preventive and therapeutic interventions that reduce the risk for loss of ability in daily physical functions and their consequences, as the harm in the oral self-care

The assessment of oral health status in elderly patients is essential for the development of specific health policies. The prevalence of oral diseases is high in this population. The self-perception of oral health conditions influences the demand for oral care and quality of life for seniors. The aim of this study was to assess self-perception of oral health status in 100 elderly of both sexes, aged 60 years or older and functionally independent the Basic Health Unit of Felipe Camaro II, Natal, Brazil. For comparison of self-perception data was collected in Bom Pastor, Natal / RN. In this research data were collected a questionnaire grouped into two parts. The first part with the socio-demographic data, subjective and objective condition of oral health and access to the service, the second part GOHAI Index. This index consists of 12 items that make it possible to obtain information involving aspects of chewing, speech, phonation, and self-assessed oral health. The results were subjected to statistical tests of Mann-Whitney and Kruskal-Wallis test (α = 0.05), to identify possible predictors of self-evaluation. As a result, 69% were female, ages ranged from 60 to 86 years, with a median of 65 years. In relation to marital status 48% were married. For the years of study, the sample had an average of 3 years. For the last visit to the dentist, only 27% of seniors had visited the Dentist for less than a year. Regarding the questions about the presence of gingival and dental problems were answered by 46% and 21% respectively. The data on the perception of your teeth and gums, 44%. The index showed GOHAI value for self-perception of 30 points to Felipe Camaro and 28 points for the Bom Pastor, both considered a low perception. We identified predictors of self-rated number of people in the room, participate in any associational activity, there is problems with your teeth and your gums. Concluded a negative self-perception of oral health condition by Gone in both areas, influenced by socioeconomic and cultural issues, although they realize the importance given to oral health, but by the misfortunes of other prominent favored little valuing of oral health

Dentre os vrios aspectos da saúde do idoso, a saúde bucal merece ateno especial pelo fato de que, historicamente, nos servios odontolgicos, no se considera esse grupo populacional como prioridade de ateno. Por isso, se faz necessria a produo de um indicador multidimensional capaz de mensurar todas as alteraes bucais encontradas em um idoso, facilitando a categorizao da saúde bucal como um todo. Tal indicador representar um importante instrumento capaz de elencar prioridades de ateno voltadas populao idosa. Portanto, o estudo em questo prope a produo e validao de um indicador de saúde bucal a partir dos dados secundrios coletados pelo projeto SB Brasil 2010 referente ao grupo etrio de 65 a 74 anos. A amostra foi representada pelos 7619 indivduos do grupo etrio de 65 a 74 anos que participaram da pesquisa nas 5 (cinco) regies do Brasil. Tais indivduos foram submetidos avaliao epidemiolgica das condies de saúde bucal, a partir dos ndices CPO-d, CPI e PIP. Alm disso, verificou-se o uso e necessidade de prtese, bem como caractersticas sociais, econmicas e demogrficas. Uma anlise fatorial identificou um nmero relativamente pequeno de fatores comuns, atravs da anlise de componentes principais. Aps a nomenclatura dos fatores, foi realizada a soma dos escores fatoriais por indivduo. Por ltimo, a dicotomizao dessa soma nos forneceu o indicador de saúde bucal proposto. Para esse estudo foram includas na anlise fatorial 12 variveis de saúde bucal oriundas do banco de dados do SB Brasil 2010 e, tambm 3 variveis socioeconmicas e demogrficas. Com base no critrio de Kaiser, observa-se que foram retidos cinco fatores que explicaram 70,28% da varincia total das variveis includas no modelo. O fator 1 (um) explica sozinho 32,02% dessa varincia, o fator 2 (dois) 14,78%, enquanto que os fatores 3 (trs), 4 (quatro) e 5 (cinco) explicam 8,90%, 7,89% e 6,68%, respectivamente. Por meio das cargas fatoriais, o fator um foi denominado dente hgido e pouco uso de prtese , o dois doena periodontal presente , o trs necessidade de reabilitao , j o quarto e quinto fator foram denominados de crie e condio social favorvel , respectivamente. Para garantir a representatividade do indicador proposto, realizou-se uma segunda anlise fatorial em uma subamostra da populao de idosos investigados. Por outro lado, a aplicabilidade do indicador produzido foi testada por meio da associao do mesmo com outras variveis do estudo. Por fim, Cabe ressaltar que, o indicador aqui produzido foi capaz de agregar diver sas informaes a respeito da saúde bucal e das condies sociais desses indivduos, traduzindo assim, diversos dados em uma informao simples, que facilita o olhar dos gestores de saúde sobre as reais necessidades de intervenes em relao saúde bucal de determinada populao
