Crescimento pré-natal do corpo e de alguns órgãos de Zebu mestiço coletados em matadouros de São Paulo

A total of 196 fetuses of crossbred Zebu between 106 to 246mm in length collected from a slaughterhouse in São Paulo, Brazil, and divided into groups of 10mm size differences intervals into 15 classes were measured and weighed. Liver, heart and lungs were also removed and weighed. In order to select the method of evaluation of growth several mathematical functions were applied. Among significant equations the monologarithmic function was selected. Furthermore, the fetuses in similar conditions of length and weight were compared with racially pure fetuses.

Intervenções benéficas no pré-natal para prevenção da mortalidade materna

Maternal mortality rate (MM) is a health quality indicator that is directly influenced by the economic, cultural and technological level of a country. Official data of MM in Brazil, although underestimated, point to the lack of quality in pregnancy, childbirth and puerperium care services. This characteristic is common in developing countries, where poorer pregnant women as well as those facing greater difficulty to quality care access are found. Prenatal care cannot prevent major childbirth complications, which are important causes of MM; however, some interventions during the prenatal period can favor maternal prognosis and prevent MM. In this setting, this study brings a scientifically based update concerning effective interventions for maternal mortality prevention during the prenatal period. The most important strategies consist of a tripod with specific interventions related to maternal health promotion, risk prevention and assurance of nutritional support during gestation, in addition to criteria to investigate gestational risk and inclusion of the pregnant woman in the basic component of the prenatal care model. It ends with the definition of priorities in the prevention of MM related to eclampsia/preeclampsia and reinforces the importance of normalization of reference systems for obstetric emergency cases.

Avaliação da assistência pré-natal e puerperal desenvolvidas em região do interior do Estado de São Paulo em 2005

Objectives: to evaluate the structure and process of the prenatal and puerperal care given by Direção Regional de Saúde (DIR) XI, at the city of Botucatu, State of São Paulo, Brazil. Methods: an evaluation of resources and activities developed during prenatal and puerperal care in twenty municipalities comprising DIR XI which had adhered the Prenatal and Birth Humanization Program until 2003. Interviews with city managers and analysis of 385 sampled patient charts taking into account recommendations by the Health Department. Results: structure analysis showed that caregiving was centered on medical work; basic equipment and instruments were available; 85.2% of patients began prenatal care with up to 120 days of pregnancy, and 75.9% had at least six prenatal consultations. The active search for absentees and strategies for early prenatal care initiation were observed in 30% and 50% of the municipalities, respectively. Process indicators showed that 3.6% of women had six prenatal consultations, one puerperal consultation, all basic exams and tetanus immunization. Recording of gestational age, arterial blood pressure and weight was of approximately 90%; 58.7% of the women underwent childbirth review and 31.5% were vaccinated. Conclusions: the performance of the set of activities is a challenge to prenatal care at DIR XI.

Sistema de Informação Pré-Natal: análise crítica de registros em um município paulista.

The prenatal assistance is one of the health care pillars. This study aimed to conduct a critical evaluation of the SIS Prenatal in a city of São Paulo State, to compare its data with the local assistance and to verify the registry of pregnant women attended at Health Care Centers. It was analyzed the pregnant women records through consultation at Health Regional Unit and municipal health service. There were inconsistencies between the system and local registry. The failures were related to the inadequate filling of attendance files, besides scarce control of pregnant women files and scheduling on health centers. The results suggest the need for better planning of actions for the improvement of prenatal service quality.

Sobrepeso pré-gestacional associa-se a ganho ponderal excessivo na gestação

PURPOSE: To evaluate the adequacy of gestational weight gain and to determine its association with maternal socioeconomic, demographic and nutritional factors and health care, to estimate the prevalence of low birth weight, macrosomia, preterm birth and cesarean delivery and to identify the association of these outcomes with the adequacy of weight gain. METHODS: A cross-sectional study was performed in 2009/2010 to obtain socioeconomic, demographic, nutritional, dietary and physical activity data of pregnant women assisted by primary health care in a municipality of the state of São Paulo. Subsequently, data were collected from the medical records to evaluate gestational weight gain. Type of delivery, birth weight and gestational age at delivery were obtained from the Livebirths Information System. Gestational weight gain was evaluated according to the recommendations of the Institute of Medicine (2009). Associations were investigated by comparing the frequencies and by logistic regression, with excessive weight gain (yes, no) and insufficient gain (yes, no) being the dependent variables. RESULTS: A total of 212 pregnant women were studied: 50.5% had excessive gain and 19.8% insufficient weight gain. Only prepregnancy nutritional status was associated with adequacy of weight gain: compared with normal weight, prepregnancy overweight women had a four-fold higher chance to gain excessive weight (OR 4.66, 95%CI 2.19-9.4). Nearly a third of babies were born by caesarian section, 5.7% were premature, 7.1% were underweight and 4.7% were macrosomic. There was no association between adequacy of gestational weight gain and these outcomes. CONCLUSION: The proportion of inadequate gestational weight gain was high. Overweight pregnant women have a four-fold higher chance to gain excessive weight, and priority should be given to actions promoting adequate prenatal weight gain.

A importância das classes socias na relação médico-paciente: adesão ao pré-natal

This article is focused in the understanding of how can social classes influence in prenatal, throughout the patient medical relationship as well as the many aspects surrounding. In the first chapter, reflected about the adherence to prenatal and considerations in gestational period when dealing with public health treatment offer by SUS. Next chapter, patient medical relationship is addressed as a relationship classes, over questioning how this relationship use to be in front of disadvantaged extracts, focused in prenatal. In the third chapter, the patient medical relationship is analyzed throughout the patient vision, pointing the many factors that can induce the success of a therapeutic. In the last chapter, there are reflections about whereby health professionals upgrading, as well as the improve of basic health care networks are necessary to a larger prenatal adherence.

Histologia e histomorfometria do retículo de bovino no período pré-natal

The development of the stomach of ruminants requires further studies because it is a complex process. Therefore, was analyzed the histology and histomorphometry of reticulum at each gestation period. Samples of Nelore fetuses (Bos taurus indicus) was divided in 5 groups: 1 - fetuses at 9 to 15 weeks (8 to 21cm) of gestation, 2 - fetuses at 16 to 22 weeks (23 to 37cm) 3 - fetuses at 23 to 29 weeks (40 to 58cm), 4 - fetuses at 30 to 36 weeks (61 to 77cm) and 5 - fetuses at 37-43 weeks (79 to 88cm). The histological sections were stained with hematoxylin and eosin and Mallory's trichrome and examined by light microscopy. In group 1, the fetuses with 11 cm, showed mucosal projections that eventually become primary crests, lamina propria and submucosa are fused and external and internal muscular and similar. At 16.5 inches, the primary crests had lamina propria and at 18.5 cm, appeared connections between the ridges. In group 2, at 31 cm started epithelial involvement around the crests. In group 3, the fetuses of 42 cm revealed the first secondary papillae and muscular mucosa in the upper portion of the primary crests. Thereafter, it was increased epithelial due to its positioning around the crests, thickening of the lamina propriasubmucosa, muscular layer, especially the internal muscular and serosa. It was concluded that the most visible changes occur in fetuses belonging to the first 3 groups, measurements for the epithelium, muscle layer and total wall were increasing and the other analyzed layers showed variations during fetal development.
