Vitamin A deficiency in preschool children of Recife, Northeast of Brazil. The purpose of the study was to evaluate the extent of vitamin A deficiency (VAD) among preschool children in the city of Recife, Northeast Brazil. The sample comprised 344 children of both sexes, 24 to 60 months old, in 18 public day care centres in the city of Recife, in 2007. The nutritional status of vitamin A was assessed by biochemical (serum retinol) and dietetic (vitamin A rich-food consumption) indicators and the pondo-stature status through anthropometric indicators weight-for-age, height-for-age and weight-for-height. The prevalence of hyporetinolemia (<0.70 mu mol / L) was 7.7% (IC95% 4.88 - 11.81), which characterizes the VAD as a light-type public health problem, according to World Health Organization criteria. On the other hand, 29.6% (IC95% 24.22 - 35.63) of children had acceptable or marginal levels (0.70 to 1.04 mu mol/L) of retinol. Regarding the vitamin A rich-food intake, values below the EAR (Estimated Average Requirement) - 210 mu g/day for children of 1 to 3 years old and 275 mu g/day for children of 4 to 8 years old - were 8.1% and 21.3% respectively. The prevalence of anthropometrical deficits (<-2 scores -Z) in preschool children were 2.5% for the indicator weight-for-age, 8.6% for height-for-age and 1.5% for weight-for-height. The research findings point out to the importance of institutionalization for the appropriate nutritional status of children and maintenance of adequate reserves of vitamin A. However, more studies are needed focusing on non-institutionalized preschool, or children living outside the privileged environment of public day care centres.

Bakgrund: Anknytningen underlättas mellan barn och föräldrar om de kan vara tillsammans redan från förlossningen. Teamarbete förbättrar kvalitén och bidrar till helhetsperspektiv i vården. En god arbetsmiljö och ett gott samarbete mellan personal är viktigt för effektiviteten av samvård. Att undersöka personalens förväntningar inför ett nytt arbetssätt är betydelsefullt eftersom det kan avspegla sig i den vård som senare ges.Syftet med studien var att belysa personalens förväntningar inför sammanslagning av olika vårdavdelningar och att samtidigt införa samvård.Metoden var en kvalitativ metod med totalt 14 deltagare i tre fokusgruppsintervjuer. Datainsamlingen analyserades med en kvalitativ innehållsanalys.Resultatet sammanfattades med temat ”Tryggt och välkänt eller nytt och osäkert – förändringsarbetets balansgång” som beskrev personalens känslor inför sammanslagningen. Kategorierna ”Att få en bra miljö för föräldrar och personal”, ”Att samarbeta med familjen i fokus”, ”Att förena två kliniker och kulturer” och ”Att genomgå en arbetsplatsförändring” beskrev de förväntningar och farhågor personalen uttryckte.Slutsatser: Resultatet visade på förväntningar av att vård- och arbetsmiljö skulle förbättras samt att samarbetet mellan klinikerna skulle bli mer effektivt. Det framkom att det var av betydelse att ha fungerande informationsflöden, uppleva delaktighet samt ha en tydlig ledning i en genomgripande organisationsförändring.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: To a large extent, people who have suffered a stroke report unmet needs for rehabilitation. The purpose of this study was to explore aspects of rehabilitation provision that potentially contribute to self-reported met needs for rehabilitation 12 months after stroke with consideration also to severity of stroke. METHODS: The participants (n = 173) received care at the stroke units at the Karolinska University Hospital, Sweden. Using a questionnaire, the dependent variable, self-reported met needs for rehabilitation, was collected at 12 months after stroke. The independent variables were four aspects of rehabilitation provision based on data retrieved from registers and structured according to four aspects: amount of rehabilitation, service level (day care rehabilitation, primary care rehabilitation and home-based rehabilitation), operator level (physiotherapist, occupational therapist, speech therapist) and time after stroke onset. Multivariate logistic regression analyses regarding the aspects of rehabilitation were performed for the participants who were divided into three groups based on stroke severity at onset. RESULTS: Participants with moderate/severe stroke who had seen a physiotherapist at least once during each of the 1st, 2nd and 3rd-4th quarters of the first year (OR 8.36, CI 1.40-49.88 P = 0.020) were more likely to report met rehabilitation needs. CONCLUSION: For people with moderate/severe stroke, continuity in rehabilitation (preferably physiotherapy) during the first year after stroke seems to be associated with self-reported met needs for rehabilitation.

Background: Family centred care (FCC) is currently a valued philosophy within neonatal care; an approach that places the parents at the heart of all decision-making and engagement in the care of their infant. However, to date, there is a lack of clarity regarding the definition of FCC and limited evidence of FCCs effectiveness in relation to parental, infant or staff outcomes. Discussion: In this paper we present a new perspective to neonatal care based on Aaron Antonovksy's Sense of Coherence (SOC) theory of well-being and positive health. Whilst the SOC was originally conceptualised as a psychological-based construct, the SOCs three underpinning concepts of comprehensibility, manageability and meaningfulness provide a theoretical lens through which to consider and reflect upon meaningful care provision in this particular care environment. By drawing on available FCC research, we consider how the SOC concepts considered from both a parental and professional perspective need to be addressed. The debate offered in this paper is not presented to reduce the importance or significance of FCC within neonatal care, but, rather, how consideration of the SOC offers the basis through which meaningful and effective FCC may be delivered. Practice based implications contextualised within the SOC constructs are also detailed. Summary: Consideration of the SOC constructs from both a parental and professional perspective need to be addressed in FCC provision. Service delivery and care practices need to be comprehensible, meaningful and manageable in order to achieve and promote positive well-being and health for all concerned.

Este trabalho apresenta como objetivo principal a construção de proposta que vise acelerar a oferta de vagas em creches na Cidade de São Paulo. Desenvolvido a partir de Termo de Referência organizado pela Secretaria Municipal de Educação de São Paulo (SME), tem como objeto a política pública de creches nesse município, que atende a cerca de 190 mil crianças, mas enfrenta o expressivo déficit de aproximadamente 127 mil vagas frente a um universo de 736 mil crianças entre 0 e 3 anos. À luz da base teórica e empírica da área da gestão e políticas públicas, contextualizamos o problema e indicamos alternativas para a expansão. Inicialmente, buscou-se percorrer a contextualização histórica e o marco legal referente à provisão de creches. Com base em entrevistas com especialistas e levantamento de dados secundários, foi avaliado o atual desenho e implementação da política de creches. A partir desse diagnóstico, identificamos como principais gargalos a serem superados: (i) a aceleração da expansão da quantidade de vagas em creches; (ii) a equalização da distribuição da expansão de acordo com a vulnerabilidade socioeconômica; (iii) o aumento da qualidade do atendimento das entidades e redução da desigualdade de padrões de qualidade entre as modalidades direta e conveniada; (iv) o aprimoramento da capacidade gerencial e de planejamento da SME; e (v) a constituição de visão integrada da política de primeira infância para o município de São Paulo. A proposta sugere, portanto, investimentos para ampliação da capacidade gerencial da SME – incluindo o potencial de articulação com outras entidades e atores –, mudanças no atual desenho da política de creches, e ferramentais de planejamento, acompanhamento e avaliação da política. Foi elaborada, para fins ilustrativos, a simulação da concretização de planejamento estratégico para a política de creches, que abrange dois conjuntos de medidas alternativas para a expansão de vagas e suas necessidades orçamentárias associadas.

A presente investigação constitui um estudo específico de parte dos achados da pesquisa "Influência das Condições de Atendimento das Creches no Desenvolvimento Cognitivo e Emocional das Crianças" (Almeida, L.S. de; Colinvaux, D.; Pardal, M.V.; e Penna, M.M.S., 1985). 'Teve como hipótese geral a existência de uma relação entre o desenvolvimento da noção de objeto e a evolução do comportamento de apego dirigido à figura principal de cuidados em crianças de creche. Fundamentou-se, teoricamente, nas postulações de J. Piaget sobre o desenvolvimento cognitivo e mais especificamente ainda sobre o conceito de objeto e de J. Bowlby sobre o comportamento de apego. O estudo foi conduzido em uma amostra de 39 crianças, na faixa etária de 6 a 24 meses, que frequentavam creche externato em regime integral. Todas as crianças foram testadas na serie "busca do objeto desaparecido" da escala "As Etapas da Inteligência Sensório-Motora da Criança de Zero a Dois Anos" (I.Casati & I. Lezine, 1968) e participaram de uma situação experimental adaptada da "situação do estranho" (M. Ainsworth & B. Wittig, 1969). Não foi estabeleci da uma relação significativa entre as variáveis em estudo. Contudo, os dados coletados evidenciaram uma tendência para essa correlação. A autora sugere, portanto, que outras investigações acerca dessas variáveis sejam conduzidas em amostras com um número significativamente maior de crianças. Propõe, ainda, que a variável noção de permanência de pessoa também seja considerada em futuras pesquisas nessa área.

O desenvolvimento sócio-politico-econômico e social de nosso século, vem contribuindo enormemente à inserção da força de trabalho feminina, principalmente nas últimas três décadas. A necessidade econômica aliada ao desejo, cada vez mais manifesto, de desenvolver potenciais profissionais, vem modificando certos hábitos e costumes que, tradicionalmente, estavam enraizados em nossa cultura. O desejo de "ir a luta" tem transformado o papel da mulher dentro do contexto familiar. Cada vez mais, nos deparamos com mulheres que conseguem, mesmo que de forma incipiente, dividir seu "papel-rótulo", de dona de casa, com seu marido ou companheiro. E aí, surge a questão: com quem ficarão os filhos? As creches vem se revelando como uma boa alternativa, na medida que, em sua própria definição, ela é um local destinado a favorecer o desenvolvimento da criança pequena. A criança deve ser atendida em suas necessidadse básicas, propiciando a sua socialização, estabelecendo relações afetivas e ampliando experiências. Paralelamente, resta analisar que toda decisão implica em um processo muitas vezes doloroso. A decisão de deixar o bebê na creche, se reflete, diretamente, nos sentimentos maternos, que se tornam ambíguos. A necessidade dá as mãos a culpa, que se instala fortemente. Quanto ao bebê, entrar em um mundo novo é tarefa árdua, que exige um estágio de maturação e um processo de ajustamento que não corresponde, muitas vezes, ao desenvolvimento físico, intelectual e emocional. Para se adaptar ao novo ambiente, entram em jogo mecanismos múltiplos que alteram desde a fisiologia do bebê até o seu desenvolvimento como um todo. Essas mudanças fazem com que as crianças emitam respostas e tenham comportamentos de reação, os mais complexos e diversos, a essa adaptação. É um mundo novo, como pessoas novas e, estabelecer relações, não é tão simples. Afetivamente, ir a creche, implica na separação do meio familiar e, mais especificamente, separa-se da mãe. Dentre muitas formas de expressar o sentimento em relação a essa separação, encontram-se os distúrbios emocionais do bebê - o adoecer da criança, as manifestações psicossomáticas que são diretamente ligadas a relação mãe-filho. Procurar-se-á analisar os aspectos pscicológicos do adoecer, adoecer entendido como forma de protesto, como reclamação a angústia frente à separação.

Esta tese buscou identificar e analisar os fatores que influenciam a implementação da política de Educação Infantil nas creches conveniadas da prefeitura de São Paulo. Ao constatar a existência de um cenário de desigualdade no atendimento oferecido pelas creches, a pesquisa investigou coincidências e singularidades entre dois grupos de creches, respectivamente consideradas de boa e de má qualidade. O objetivo principal foi verificar as causas que contribuem para a diferença na qualidade do atendimento e as implicações desses fatores para a implementação da política de Educação Infantil. Foram analisadas 25 creches pertencentes às Diretorias Regionais de Educação de Butantã, Campo Limpo e Guaianases. Verificou-se que os recursos da entidade mantenedora e a forma como esta apoia a creche têm grande peso no atendimento oferecido, além do papel exercido pela direção do equipamento e a sua localização. Adicionalmente, foi investigada a influência da atuação da Prefeitura, por meio da Secretaria Municipal de Educação e, mais especificamente, das suas Diretorias Regionais. Constatou-se que, ao não lidar institucionalmente com as desigualdades existentes na rede conveniada, o poder público municipal contribui para sua manutenção. As condições que interferem no atendimento são materializadas por meio do espaço físico e dos materiais pedagógicos disponíveis, das características da equipe de profissionais (número de funcionários, acesso à formação continuada e nível de remuneração) e da diversidade de atividades oferecidas às crianças. A partir dos resultados encontrados propõem-se o aprofundamento do debate sobre as desigualdades presentes na rede de creches conveniadas que leve em conta a diferenciação existente entre rede direta e conveniada, a formação disponibilizada pela Prefeitura às equipes das creches conveniadas e outros recursos necessários para apoiar as creches que não dispõem de condições adequadas para oferecer um bom atendimento.

Obesity is currently considered a public health problem and there has been growing interest in the study of various aspects related to this infirmity such as: epidemiology, diagnosis, treatment, prevention and others. Thus, the purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence of weight excess and overweight in preschoolers in Natal, Brazil and relate them to variables such as gender, age, type of school (public or private) and zones of the city (east/south and north/west). This is a transversal study, carried out in Natal, Brazil between August and September 2004, in 20 public and 20 private schools/day care centers selected by the systematic sampling method. We measured the weight and height of 3721 students between the ages of 2 and 6 years. The children were stratified, according to age, into age group 1 (2 to 4 years) and age group 2 (5 and 6 years) and according to the region of the school, into north/west and east/south zones, the regions with the smallest and highest quality of life indices in the city, respectively. Children were considered to have weight excess when BMI ≥ 85th percentile, including those with BMI ≥ 95th percentile and overweight when BMI ≥ 95th percentile. The prevalence of weight excess was 26.5%, and of overweight 12.4%. There was greater prevalence of weight excess in the private schools and in the east/south zones. Overweight displayed the same epidemiologic profile, with a greater prevalence in private schools and in the east/south zones. The prevalence of weight excess in preschoolers in Natal, Brazil is high and is related, above all, to private schools and to those located in the highest quality of life areas. Therefore, prevention programs should be implanted in elementary schools in order to decrease weight excess and possible associated co-morbidities. This research project met the norms established by PPGCSa/UFRN and aimed at promoting the interrelation between different researchers and between different fields of knowledge, using multi and interdisciplinary concepts. This study was enriched by the interaction between the following professionals: pediatrician, pediatric gastroenterologist and physician nutrition specialist, pediatric endocrinologist, epidemiologist and biostatistician

According to demographic estimates, by the year 2025 Brazil will be the sixth country in the world in number of elderly. For this reason, it is a purpose of public policies to help people to reach that age being healthier. The current health care model of health surveillance through the Family Health Strategy (EFS, in portuguese) is configured as a gateway into the care of the elderly in the Unified Health System (SUS, in portuguese). It is also an area of development of practices to promote health, prevention and control of chronic nondegenerative diseases. The aim of this study was to analyze the health care of the elderly provided by ESF professionals for the achievement of a full care. The study is descriptive case study with a quantitative approach, performed in the city of Santo Antônio/RN. The population included all health professionals, who are FHS members of the city that agreed to participate of the survey, a total of 80 professionals. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire, having mostly closed questions and divided into two parts: one containing sociodemographic information of health professionals and vocational training and the other, the activities carried on by the professionals in senior care, being analyzed from a database tabulated in a spreadsheet and discussed according to the descriptive statistics in tables, graphs and charts using frequencies, medians and values of central tendency. It was verified a predominance of professionals who finished highschool, mostly female, aged from 30 to 34 years old, with training completed in the last 10 years, without being graduated in the field of geriatrics or gerontology and mostly without training in gerontology. Family members and caregivers were the components of the social support network most identified by the professionals (66.3%).The elderly access to the Family Health Basic Unit was considered by83.8% of professionals as the most important factor that interferes in the activities of health care of the elderly. Considering the inclusion of the family in care: 98.8% of professionals consider the family as one of the goals of care, but 82.5% assist the family to know their role and participate in the care of the elderly, emphasizing that no professional makes use of tools for evaluating the functionality of the family. Regarding the actions taken to assist the elderly, 91.25% have home visits program to the elderly, 88.75% use the host program; 77.5% know the habits of life, cultural, ethical and religious values of the elderly, their families and their community ;51.25% complement the activities through intersectoral actions, 50%participate in groups of living with the elderly; 33.75% keeps track and maintain updated the health information of the elderly; 11.25% of the professionals perform the Single Therapy Planning (PTS, in portuguese) and few implement the actions to promote health according to PTS; there is a deficit in the number of professional categories in the identification and monitoring of the frail older people in their households. It is concluded that the health care of the elderly developed by ESF professionals differs among the professional categories. It was identified weaknesses in the promotion of an active and healthy aging and also in the establishment of an integrated and full care of the elderly. It is recommended the adoption of permanent educational activities by the City Management, initially for ESF professionals in the the perspective of the guidelines of the National Policy of Health Care for the Elderly and later to the other professionals that are part of the health care network of the elderly, at all levels of care in the city for the development of strategies and practices that promote the improvement of the quality of healthcare for the elderly, expecting concrete and effective results in terms of promoting health within Brazilian reality

The present study aims to analyze the nurse s work process at Family Health Strategy, considering its basic elements and dynamic, and searching to identify aspects that may constitute strengths and weaknesses in its development. This is an analytical case study, with qualitative approach and theoretical-conceptual mark grounded in Dialectic Hermeneutics. Empirical research fields were the Family Health Units of Natal, RN, Brazil. The subjects are nurses working in this Strategy. Data collection was conducted through semi-structured individual interviews combined with field observation. The research was initiated after approval by the Ethics Committee of Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte, according to the guidelines and rules for research involving humans (Resolution 466/12), ensuring proper ethical precepts. The project was approved by register number 398.929, CAAE 19588813.7.0000.5537. From the 9 interviewed nurses, 8 were female and 1 male, average age of 52 years, average graduation time of 27 years and average time they stayed at the same Family Health territory of 7 years. It was found that it is up to the professional nurse in the Family Health care the important role of taking care of human beings in their life, family and community contexts, producing conditions to meet their needs through therapeutic act in health, using for such purpose both materials and immaterial instruments. It was possible to relate aspects that characterize strengths and weaknesses in the work process of nurses in the ESF, according to the speech of the interviewed workers, including the meanings and contradictions. Among the potentialities observed, it was possible to highlight the wide role of the nurse at Family Health; the perception of nurses about teamwork; the relative autonomy of nurses; the commitment of professionals to work; Humanization as a technology; the presence of other agents at work, such as directors and officers at the primary health units; the professional s experience time and contract type in the case studied. As weaknesses in the work process of nurses at Family Health Strategy, were highlighted the limited skills of the workforce; the difficulty in 10 identifying specific limits of the work of nurses in this scenario; the disturbances that occur in the process, the existing gaps in multiprofessional teams; Structural deficits of the units in the studied case, the low coverage of the Family Health in the county, and the political vulnerability of the work conditions. It is considered necessary to understand the dilemmas experienced in everyday life of nurses at Family Health Strategy as part of multiprofessional teams, facing actual achievement of changes in work processes necessary for the reorientation of health care in Brazil.

O objetivo desta investigação foi verificar o julgamento de educadoras de creche sobre os fatores que causam e/ou influenciam o temperamento e o desempenho de bebês. Vinte e uma educadoras foram entrevistadas a respeito de cada um dos 90 bebês de 4 a 24 meses sob seus cuidados, seguindo um roteiro semi-estruturado. Os resultados mostram que (a) as crenças das educadoras são predominantemente ambientalistas, isto é, que as educadoras atribuem influência significativa do ambiente no temperamento e desempenho dos bebês, e (b) que elas subestimam o seu papel de promotoras do desenvolvimento das crianças. A necessidade de se conhecer as crenças das educadoras para a eleboração de programas de treinamento eficazes é enfatizada.

The public dental services in Brazil were limited, practically, to the basic care, so that the specialized services acted, up to 2002, no more than 3,5% of the total of clinical procedures. That lower offer reveals the difficulty of continuity of the attention, that is, the comprehensiveness in the assistance, particulary, the reference and counter-reference system. Brasil Sorridente search to supply those needs when proposing Speciality Dental's Centers(CEOs Centros de Especialidades Odontológicas, Brazil) to compose the services of average complexity. In 2005, Ministry of Health enabled the three CEOs of Natal, located in the North II, East and West Sanitary Districts. This investigation evaluated the implantation of these CEOs, as support of the family health care teams, in the perspective of organization of the services in assistencial nets in Natal/RN. It was a study of evaluation, with qualitative approach and some quantitative data as contribution. Dentists, users and managers were interviewed to identify and to understand their perceptions, relationships and experiences in the daily of the services. The conceptual base that orientated the investigation was the principle of comprehensiveness, in its operational sense of the hierarchization in health attention levels. The collection of data was done with documental research, direct observation and semi-structured interview. The analysis was accomplished by triangulation of the extracted content from the used techniques and sources of interviewed groups depositions, looking for theoretical-conceptual support in specific bibliography. The results pointed aspects that go away from the comprehensiveness like: low resolution of problems in the basic net; little valorization of the space in the health units; traditional models of access to health services, insufficient offer for some specialties, compromising the reference and counter-reference system; practices centered in procedures in the CEO; bureaucratic directions from basic care to the specialized service; disintegrated and disjointed system among levels of attention; disrespect to the municipal protocol. On the other hand, there is an approach of compreensiveness in situations like: increase of the access and covering in the Family Health Strategy (ESF Estratégia Saúde da Família, Brazil); larger approach between professional and user; tendency to the quantitative and qualitative growth of specialized actions; punctual initiatives of relationships among levels; existence of protocol to guide professionals
