Atuação profissional e vivência do cirurgião-dentista na estratégia do programa de saúde da família

The purpose of this research was to analyze the working profile of dentists from the Family Health Program (PSF Programa de Saúde da Família, Brasil) of some Municipal Districts of Rio Grande do Norte (Brazil) in order to understand the way they handle the experience acquired with the work developed in that Program. This discussion evolves a reflection about the perspectives of consolidation of the FHP as well as the possible advancements of the Brazilian Unified Health System (SUS - Sistema Único de Saúde). The target population was composed of dentists from the FHP of Rio Grande do Norte. Thus we performed twenty-one interviews orientated by a semi-structured guidebook with open questions and identification data. We opted for recording the speech of all the professionals in order to ensure the accuracy of the information gathered. The main results found were: predominance in the female gender; the majority of dentists has no post graduation courses; in those few cases of dentists with some post-graduation a lack of correlation with Public or Collective Health was observed; the dentists interviewed present a profile directed to clinical activities; the dentists used to develop basic restorative and periodontic treatment, simple surgeries and educative and preventive activities, even though the last two ones are carried out in an extremely traditional way (lectures and topical application of fluoride). In addition, as biggest difficulties to manage the work dentists pointed out the lack of permanent and consumer material, inadequate infrastructure, no transport to take them to distant places, no integration with the Health Family Team, technical difficulty such to perform educative and preventive activities as to provide adequate service to a repressed lawsuit. The results indicate the existence of a necessity to lead them to reflect and redirect their practices. In order to reach this aim it must be considered as initial measure the investment and encouragement toward to permanent education as well as a close follow-up and evaluation of the actions developed by them

Trabalho docente e saúde: tensões da educação superior

Nesse estudo - abordamos as metamorfoses do mundo do trabalho, determinadas pelo esgotamento do modelo taylorista-fordista de produção, erigido no sentido de superar a crise da década de 1930, que assolou as sociedades capitalistas. Também é estudada a consolidação de um tipo de Estado que deu suporte ao período de maior desenvolvimento do capitalismo, o Welfare State, assentando, nos países desenvolvidos, suas bases nos pressupostos keynesianos – propunha imprimir ao Estado um papel estratégico no desenvolvimento do capitalismo global, e que tem sua derrocada com a crise econômica da década de 1970, com o aprofundamento do processo de mundialização dos mercados e a consolidação, aí, do poder político-econômico das empresas multi e transnacionais. Problematiza-se a centralidade do trabalho enquanto categoria social fundamental e os nexos entre trabalho, saúde e educação. O papel que Estado desempenha no quadro mais amplo da sociedade capitalista, marcado pela introdução de uma nova regulação social, concretizada por meio da implementação de reformas de cunho neoliberal, as quais podem ser observadas no âmbito das políticas públicas na sociedade brasileira, viabilizando a implementação de uma lógica mercantilista no campo educacional, principalmente na Educação Superior, que se traduz na reorganização e realização do trabalho docente nesse nível de ensino, com precarização, intensificação desse trabalho e sua repercussão sobre a saúde do docente. Analisamos os nexos entre trabalho e saúde, marcados pela submissão do corpo e da “alma” do trabalhador, aos interesses da acumulação capitalista e enfatizamos o momento em que novas questões se colocaram para as diferentes áreas do saber e das práticas, principalmente, no campo da saúde e da educação, de modo a exigirem uma reorientação dos velhos padrões de compreender o mundo, reorientação que implica a necessidade de um encontro entre a Saúde do Trabalhador e a Educação

Novas responsabilidades para o professor na educação básica

The goal of this study was to identify some of the new responsibilities that have been assigned to the elementary school teachers , under the mediation of continuing education courses . We start from the idea that these courses , especially those offered by the SECADI, are proposed teachers and aims to train them for a performance at school that exceeds the activity of teaching in the classroom . The teacher has been summoned to attend these courses in which is prepared to act on school performing tasks rather related to the care of students than teaching , assisting them in their basic needs such as health, protection, inclusion and human rights. Asked ourselves if there was a reconfiguration of the responsibilities of education professionals in order to make use of oneself given by the State. We chose as sources of research documents the SECADI such as legislation , manuals and instructional materials that will proceed to the analysis , in each course , the target populations privileged , purpose, remuneration and certification , pre - requirements to participate in the courses and duration ; partnerships involved if the courses are face , semi-distance or distance ; activities that teacher should develop in school after completion of the courses ; loads hourly . We will seek to analyze the documents and materials of School programs that Protects, School Health Program , Network Education for Diversity. The theoretical and methodological framework is dialectical and historical materialism, from assumptions which we choose as the class character of society in capitalism and alienation as a phenomenon that affects the work in all its manifestations . Thus , our general hypothesis is that the enrichment tasks of teachers in public schools can contribute to basic disposition Teacher education

Saúde bucal e educação infantil: avaliação do desgaste e do acondicionamento de escovas dentárias utilizadas por pré-escolares

Introduction: Early childhood is an essential phase of life for the future of oral health. The link between educational and health sectors can facilitate incorporating educational and preventive oral health practices in daily teaching in pre-schools. The main measure is manual tooth-brushing, which is the most accessible method for most of the population. Objective: The objective of this study is to evaluate macroscopically the wear on the bristles, form of storage, and identification of tooth brushes. Material and method: 345 toothbrushes used by children between the ages of 2 and 5 were evaluated in 4 pre-schools, by 2 participants from the oral health program. The Rawls et al. index was used to evaluate the bristles. Result: There were statistically significant differences (p = 0.020 - Mann-Whitney U test) between the frequency of toothbrushes, with the highest being (n = 205) stored at participating school; and, between adequate and inadequate brushes (p < 0.05 - X2 test) with 31.7 and 60%, respectively, classified as unfit for tooth-brushing. Of the toothbrush holders evaluated 100% were used collectively. Regarding identification, 18% of the toothbrushes were not identified in participating schools, and 37% in the others. Conclusion: The toothbrushes exhibited marked wear, and storage was inadequate; however, the schools participating in the oral health program showed toothbrushes with bristles less worn. It is suggested that training of educators regarding correct storage and evaluation of toothbrushes for wear of the bristles should be undertaken in all early childhood schools.
