Perfil sociodemográfico dos idosos nas capitais do Nordeste e a mortalidade por doenças crônico-degenerativas desse segmento populacional em Natal (RN)

Population aging is a global demographic trend. This process is a reality that merits attention and importance in recent years, and cause considerable impact in terms of greater demands on the health sector, social security and special care and attention from families and society as a whole. Thus, in the context of addressing the consequences of demographic transition, population aging is characterized as a major challenge for Brazilian society. Therefore, this study was conducted in two main objectives. In the first article, variables of socioeconomic and demographic contexts were employed to identify multidimensional profiles of elderly residents in the Northeast capitals, from specific indicators from the 2010 Census information Therefore, we used the Grade of Membership Method (GoM), whose design profiles admits that an individual belongs to different degrees of relevance to multiple profiles in order to identify socioeconomic and demographic factors associated with living conditions of the elderly in the Northeastern capitals. The second article examined the possible relationship between mortality from chronic diseases and socio-economic indicators in the elderly population, of the 137 districts in Natal, broken down by ten-year age groups (60 to 69 years, 70-79 years and 80 and over. The microdata from the Mortality Information System (SIM), was used, provided by the Health Secretariat of Christmas, and population information came from the Population Census 2010. The method refers to the Global and Local Index neighborhood logic (LISA) Moran, whose spatial distribution from the choropleth maps allowed us to analyze the mortality of the elderly by neighborhoods, according to socioeconomic and demographic indicators, according to the presence of special significance. In the first article, the results show the identification of three extreme profiles. The Profile 1 which is characterized by median socioeconomic status and contributes 35.5% of elderly residents in the area considered. The profile 2 which brings together seniors with low socioeconomic status characteristics, with a percentage of 24.8% of cases. And the Profile 3 composing elderly with features that reveal better socioeconomic conditions, about 29.7% of the elderly. Overall, the results point to poor living conditions represented by the definition of these profiles, mainly expressed by the results observed in more than half of the northeastern elderly experience a situation of social vulnerability given the large percentage that makes up the Profile 1 and Profile 2, adding 60% of the elderly. In the second article, the results show a higher proportion of elderly concentrated in the neighborhoods of higher socioeconomic status, such as Petrópolis and LagoaSeca. Mortality rates, according to the causes of death and standardized by the empirical Bayesian method were distributed locally as follows: Neoplasms (Reis Santos, New Discovery, New Town, Grass Soft and Ponta Negra); Hypertensive diseases (Blue Lagoon, Potengi, Redinha, Reis Santos, Riverside, Lagoa Nova, Grass Soft, Neópolis and Ponta Negra); Acute Myocardial Infarction (Northeast, Guarapes and grass Soft); Cerebrovascular diseases (Petrópolis and Mother Luiza); Pneumonia (Ribeira, Praia do Meio, New Discovery, Grass Soft and Ponta Negra); Chronic Diseases of the Lower Way Airlines (Igapó, Northeast and Thursdays). The present findings at work may contribute to other studies on the subject and development of specific policies for the elderly.

It was used analysis of content categorical as an axis for the interpretation of the information. Three approaches guided the analysis: Business Ethics, (normative); Business & Society (contractual); Social Issues Management (strategic). The findings are related in three ways: 1) reasons for the CSR practice; 2) the results obtained; 3) the means of CSR. It was found that the award participation occurs, mostly, linked to SESI invitations, so, as an articulated movement of industrial corporations in Brazil it occurs, also, because of the organizational commitment with the society and the possibility of internal and social growths and because of the importance attributed to the report as an instrument of consultancy. There are no indicators to check impacts of organizational interventions, in spite of the existence of planning for the actions. Social responsibility appears as a tool to reinforce the organizational image and to increase satisfaction of the employees. There is a tendency of large and medium firms to a contractual commitment while the small and the micros firms are on strategic or normative level. The analysis of the perspectives of social responsibility future revealed trends towards for strategic approach

Reperfusión en pacientes con síndrome coronario agudo con elevación del segmento ST en el Hospital Nacional Rosales

La rápida restauración del flujo coronario es un importante factor determinante de la supervivencia en los pacientes con síndrome coronario agudo con elevación del ST. Esto puede lograrse vía farmacológica (fibrinólisis) o mecánica: intervención coronaria percutánea primaria (ICP); se sugiere la utilización de fármacos fibrinolìticos cuando no se dispone de angioplastia en el centro de atención. Objetivo: conocer los resultados del uso de las distintas modalidades de terapia de reperfusión en los pacientes con síndrome coronario agudo con elevación del segmento ST que consultan al Hospital Nacional Rosales. Materiales y métodos: se realizó un estudio descriptivo, longitudinal, retrospectivo de base documental (expedientes clínicos); donde se evaluó el tipo de terapia de reperfusión coronaria utilizada y la evolución clínica en pacientes que consultaron con infarto agudo al miocardio con elevación del ST (IAMST). Resultados: se incluyeron 128 pacientes. El 64.8% recibió terapia de reperfusión. La fibrinólisis con estreptoquinasa fue la modalidad de reperfusión más utilizada, y cuya efectividad se observó según criterios clínicos y electrocardiográficos en el 55.8%. La Intervención coronaria percutánea primaria (ICP) de rescate se realizó en 7 pacientes. Se encontró una mortalidad global del 20.31% y una tasa de reingreso del 25%. Conclusión: en el Hospital Nacional Rosales el manejo del SCA con elevación del ST no es adecuado en el 100% de los pacientes.

Revisão e proposta de melhoria do sistema de controlo interno da área de vendas do segmento empresarial da PT

O tema do Controlo Interno, tem uma importância crescente nos dias de hoje, como consequência do crescimento das empresas, a globalização dos mercados e a concorrência agressiva com que nos deparamos atualmente. As empesas têm assim maior necessidade de se adaptar rapidamente às mudanças e ter ferramentas internas que lhes permitam garantir a eficiência operacional melhorando os seus resultados. O objetivo geral deste projeto, teve como principal foco efetuar propostas de melhoria na atividade dos Comerciais de modo a ir ao encontro dos objetivos da empresa. Para tal, foi efetuado um levantamento dos processos internos existentes, onde se verificou que existem algumas lacunas no cumprimento das atividades dos comerciais, essencialmente devido ao estabelecimento de prioridades por parte dos comerciais, preferindo efetuar outras tarefas, mas também outros constrangimentos relacionados com falta de conhecimento. Foram então propostas melhorias que apesar de não terem sido colocadas ainda em prática, verificou-se através de um questionário que os coordenadores das equipas concordam com que as propostas de melhoria, se aplicadas levarão a um maior cumprimento dos objetivos da empresa. Com base nesse estudo, foi ainda elaborado um Guia de Venda de Soluções Empresarias como documento de informação e apoio aos Comercias.
