Exposições sobre Comunicação Humana em museus interativos de ciências

OBJETIVOS: Investigar a existência de exposições ou exibições sobre temas relacionados à Comunicação Humana em museus interativos de ciências nacionais e internacionais e analisar o conteúdo para verificar quais são os assuntos, relacionados à área de Fonoaudiologia, abordados nos museus. MÉTODOS: Análise dos sites de 40 museus de ciência e/ou tecnologia internacionais e 20 nacionais para identificação de exposições ou exibições relacionadas ao tema "Comunicação Humana". RESULTADOS: A maioria dos museus pesquisados possui exposições ou exibições relacionadas ao tema Comunicação Humana. Dentre os nacionais apenas quatro possuem uma exposição inteira relacionada ao tema e dentre os internacionais treze possuem exposições inteiras. A quantidade de exibições internacionais é maior que a encontrada nos nacionais, e a qualidade do material também diverge. A maioria dos museus trata da acústica e em segundo lugar da recepção da mensagem pela audição e fala menos sobre produção da mensagem, linguagem, e anatomia e fisiologia da voz. CONCLUSÃO: Os museus de ciência abordam as ciências básicas e por esse motivo a acústica é muito explorada. Foram encontradas muitas exibições sobre temas relacionadas à Comunicação Humana que possibilitam aos indivíduos conhecer o funcionamento do corpo humano, despertando a curiosidade em relação ao tema abordado. Como os museus são instituições de divulgação científica e educação informal que colaboram para a alfabetização científica da população a Fonoaudiologia pode aproveitar seus espaços para divulgação de suas pesquisas e de seu conhecimento sobre a Comunicação Humana.

Elaboração de um manual ilustrado de exercícios domiciliares para pacientes com hemiparesia secundária ao acidente vascular encefálico (AVE)

A realização de exercícios físicos para pacientes com sequelas motoras pós-acidente vascular encefálico (AVE) é essencial para a recuperação funcional. Programas educacionais podem facilitar a repetição dos exercícios em casa e contribuir para o tratamento. Este trabalho teve como objetivo elaborar e aplicar um manual de exercícios domiciliares para pacientes com AVE. O estudo consistiu em duas etapas: na primeira foi elaborado um manual de exercícios domiciliares (piloto) com fotos e textos simples para facilitar a compreensão. Foi realizada uma avaliação funcional de cada paciente e selecionados os exercícios mais adequados, que deveriam ser feitos em casa. Esse manual foi aplicado a 17 pacientes, 70% crônicos e 30% agudos. Após 15 dias, o paciente retornava e era solicitado que reproduzisse os exercícios e informasse o nível de compreensão das fotos e do texto do manual e se sentia dor ao realizá-los. As fotos e os exercícios referidos como difíceis foram revistos, e criada a versão teste que foi aplicada em outros 23 pacientes, dando origem à versão final do manual. A avaliação do manual piloto foi insatisfatória, sendo que apenas 56% referiram aprovação das fotos e 87% do texto. Após a reformulação, a compreensão das fotos e do texto alcançou valores acima de 98%. Foi possível obter um manual ilustrado de exercícios domiciliares, de fácil aplicação e compreensão, específico e individualizado, para pacientes com AVE e adaptável aos diferentes quadros motores.

O monitoramento domiciliar das condições crônicas e a tomada de decisão por idosos diabéticos e hipertensos

Introdução: A prevalência de doenças crônicas, sobretudo na população idosa, nos coloca diante da necessidade de modelos longitudinais de cuidado. Atualmente os sujeitos estão sendo cada vez mais responsabilizados pelo gerenciamento de sua saúde através do uso de dispositivos de monitoramento, tais como o glicosímetro e o aferidor de pressão arterial. Esta nova realidade culmina na tomada de decisão no próprio domicílio. Objetivos: Identificar a tomada de decisão de idosos no monitoramento domiciliar das condições crônicas; identificar se as variáveis: sexo, escolaridade e renda influenciam a tomada de decisão; identificar a percepção dos idosos quanto às ações de cuidado no domicílio; identificar as dificuldades e estratégias no manuseio dos dispositivos de monitoramento. Materiais e métodos: Estudo quantitativo, exploratório e transversal. Casuística: 150 sujeitos com 60 anos de idade ou mais, sem comprometimento cognitivo, sem depressão e que façam uso do glicosímetro e/ou do aferidor de pressão arterial no domicílio. Instrumentos para seleção dos participantes: (1) Mini Exame do Estado Mental; (2) Escala de Depressão Geriátrica e (3) Escala de Atividades Instrumentais de Vida Diária de Lawton e Brody; Coleta de dados: realizada na cidade de Ribeirão Preto - SP entre setembro de 2014 e outubro de 2015. Instrumentos: (1) Questionário Socioeconômico; (2) Questionário sobre a tomada de decisão no monitoramento da saúde no domicílio (3) Classificação do uso de dispositivos eletrônicos voltados aos cuidados à saúde. Análise dos dados: Realizada estatística descritiva e quantificações absolutas e percentuais para identificar a relação entre tomada de decisão de acordo com o sexo, escolaridade e renda. Resultados: Participaram 150 idosos, sendo 117 mulheres e 33 homens, com média de idade de 72 anos. Destes, 113 são hipertensos e 62 são diabéticos. Quanto à tomada de decisão imediata, tanto os que fazem uso do aferidor de pressão arterial (n=128) quanto do glicosímetro (n=62) referem em sua maioria procurar ajuda médica, seguida da administração do medicamento prescrito e opções alternativas de tratamento. Em médio prazo destaca-se a procura por ajuda profissional para a maioria dos idosos em ambos os grupos. Foi notada pequena diferença na tomada de decisão com relação ao sexo. Quanto à escolaridade, os idosos com mais anos de estudos tendem a procurar mais pelo serviço de saúde se comparado aos idosos de menor escolaridade. A renda não mostrou influencia entre os usuários do glicosímetro. Já entre os usuários do aferidor de pressão arterial, idosos de maior renda tendem a procurar mais pelo serviço de saúde. A maioria dos participantes se refere ao monitoramento domiciliar da saúde de maneira positiva, principalmente pela praticidade em não sair de casa, obtenção rápida de resultados e possibilidade de controle contínuo da doença. As principais dificuldades no manuseio do glicosímetro estão relacionadas ao uso da lanceta e fita reagente, seguida da checagem dos resultados armazenados. Já as dificuldades no uso do aferidor de pressão arterial estão relacionadas a conferir o resultado após cada medida e ao posicionamento correto do corpo durante o monitoramento. Em ambos os grupos as estratégias utilizadas são pedir o auxílio de terceiros e tentativa e erro. Conclusão: Os idosos tem se mostrado favoráveis às ações de monitoramento domiciliar da saúde. De maneira geral, de imediato decidem por ações dentro do próprio domicílio para o controle dos sintomas e isto reforça a necessidade do investimento em informação de qualidade e educação em saúde para que o gerenciamento domiciliar possa vir a ser uma vertente do cuidado integral no tratamento das condições crônicas.

Perfil sociodemográfico dos sujeitos que tentaram o suicídio no município de Arapiraca, Alagoas

Introdução: as tentativas de suicídio são uma das causas mais frequentes de atendimento nos serviços de urgência no Brasil. Poucos estudos abordam as características epidemiológicas das tentativas de suicídio, principalmente na região nordeste. Diante da importância de se conhecer as características das tentativas de suicídio e propor estratégias de minimização é que o presente estudo caracterizou o perfil sociodemográfico das pessoas que tentaram suicídio em Arapiraca – AL, no período de 2009 a 2013. Metodologia: Trata-se de um estudo descritivo de série histórica, com dados obtidos através da ficha de notificação/ investigação individual de Intoxicação Exógena do SINAN, de pacientes que foram atendidos no serviço de urgência e emergência da Unidade de Emergência Doutor Daniel Houly em Arapiraca. Foram analisadas as seguintes variáveis das tentativas de suicídios: faixa etária, sexo, raça, idade gestacional, zona de residência, vínculo empregatício, agente tóxico, hospitalização e evolução. Resultados: Do ano de 2009 a 2013 o total de atendidos por tentativas de suicídios na referida unidade foi de 1.184 indivíduos, sendo 71,54% do sexo feminino e 28,46% do sexo masculino. A faixa etária de maior frequência foi à de 20-29 anos, correspondendo a 33 % e a raça parda foi a que apresentou maior número de casos, 21% (n= 239). Em relação à residência 77% (n = 922) dos casos residiam em zona urbana, e o principal agente tóxico utilizado nas tentativas de suicídio, foi a ingestão medicamentosa (n = 822, 72%). Cerca de 73% (n=865) tiveram que ser hospitalizados e 95% tiveram tratamento adequado, evoluindo para cura. Conclusão: A partir dos dados foi possível traçar o perfil sociodemográfico das tentativas de suicídio, alcançando os objetivos propostos. A discussão do tema bem como a implementação da educação em saúde se constituem em elementos primordiais para a identificação dos sujeitos com ideação suicida e a busca da evitabilidade de novos casos. Ações de vigilância são necessárias para minimizar as taxas de suicídio, bem como a formação e articulação de rede de assistência no agreste alagoano. Ainda ressalta-se a necessidade de mais estudos com a população que apresenta comportamento suicida no município. Palavras-chave: Tentativa de Suicídio. Saúde Pública. Saúde Mental.

Acompanhamento do crescimento e desenvolvimento da criança: a participação das mães da área rural

The accompaniment of growth and development is the central thrust of child care in primary health care in order to contribute to the reduction of infant morbidity and mortality and promote healthy development. Despite its importance, the family health unit located in rural Parazinhocounty experiences the problem of frequent absences of children to follow-up consultations. Thus, this study aims to analyze the participation of mothers in the accompaniment of growth and development of children in the Family Health Strategy. This is an exploratory, descriptive study with a qualitative approach with the method action research, developed with mothers who are part of the monitoring of the growth and development of children in the rural area of the municipality of Parazinho/RN from May to October 2014. Data collection was performed using the focus group techniques, participant observation and individual interviews. Data were analyzed using thematic analysis of categorization. The study was approved by the Research Ethics Committee, under the opinion embodied 617,559 and CAAE 28598014.7.0000.5537. In step situation analysis, were conducted two focus groups, attended by a total of 14 mothers of different rural locations. From the speeches, one realizes that they have a satisfactory understanding of the monitoring of the growth and development of the childwas a learning moment. The nurse was mentioned as key professional that actionof accompaniment. The main reason that mothers to abandon consultations is access to health services, due to the distance from their homes to the basic unit, the shortage of public transport for the movement of users and delay between the service and the back home. As a strategy to try to tackle these problems, at the suggestion of their mothers was created Monitoring of Growth and Development Itinerant, where the FHS team moved to rural locations, performing activities related to children's health. Mothers who participated in the action approved the initiative as improving access and care of health needs, despite indicate dissatisfaction as the poor infrastructure and little privacy in consultations. Therefore, it is concluded that, despite the difficulties encountered often for lack of management support and involvement of some professionals, the monitoring of growth and development itinerant proved to be an important tool in solving the problem of access to services oriented to the health of child, in addition to functioning as a space for the realization of health education, becoming, since then, an activity inherent in family health team schedule.

Residência multiprofissional, desafios e compromissos na reorientação da formação para o SUS: um estudo na atenção primária

The Health Multiprofessional Residency Program of the Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte (PRMS/UFRN) adopts as guiding keystones the learning process of in-service teaching, the interdisciplinary multiprofessional work and the compliance with the principles and guidelines of the Brazilian Unified Health System (SUS). Although PRMS/UFRN have been idealized with a focus on hospital care, the training process in the insertion of residents in the Primary Health Care (PHC) has an important role because they need to experience all levels of care, taking into account that the educational process through work proposed by the Residence is based on the comprehensiveness of health care. In light of the foregoing, the present research has sought to elucidate the insertion of these residents in PHC services, through a qualitative approach of case study, where data collection was held in two different moments: firstly, a questionnaire was accomplished, through an semi-structured script, with the residents of PRMS/UFRN, Natal Campus; subsequently, the focus group technique was accomplished with a group of nine residents, and data were analyzed from the categorical thematic content analysis. From the process of empirical categorization, categories and subcategories were raised, among which, the positive aspects and potentialities of insertion of residents in PHC. We detected the articulation of actions for promoting, preventing and recovering health; training in comprehensiveness of health care, multiprofessional activities and activities aimed at doing the integration among teaching-service-community. Regarding the difficulties found in this experience, we dealt with the organization and planning of rotation activities, the preceptorship, the process of work found in the Basic Health Units (BHU), in addition to factors external to educational practice, such as the issue of safety within these communities. Accordingly, with this situational diagnosis, we became able to realize that residents have identified the importance of this rotation for their vocational training, since these are inserted in post-graduate programs in hospital care. As an immediate product of this study, we will present a report that will provide a space for discussion and assessment of this rotation by the coordination bodies of PRMS/UFRN, in order to seek organizational and pedagogical adaptations, besides the proposition of qualification courses for the actors involved with this process, aiming the implementation of improvements in the rotation of PHC toward the qualified training of professionals for SUS.

Fatores determinantes da near miss materna em uma unidade de terapia intensiva obstétrica: avaliação das competências profissionais da área médica

Objective: Evaluate the determinants of morbidity and mortality in an obstetric intensive care unit and professional medical skills of students/residents at a university hospital. Methods: observational cross - sectional with 492 pregnant/pue rperal women and 261 students/residents. Patients were admitted to the obstetric intensive care unit during a year, being informed about the proposals of the study and a questionnaire was applied. The analysis was performed using Microsoft Excel 2013 and G raphPad6. Chi - square tests were used to evaluate risk factors and student t test evaluates resident/students' skills concerning the cognitive test and the Mini - Cex. Results: the main risk factors to near miss were: non - white race (OR = 2.527; RR = 2.342) ; marital status(married women) (OR = 7.968; RR = 7.113) , schooling (primary) (OR = 3.177 ; RR = 2.829) , from country town (OR = 4.643 ; RR = 4.087), low income (OR = 7014 ; RR = 5.554) , gestational hypertensive disorders (OR = 16.35 ; RR = 13.27) , re alization of pre - natal (OR = 5.023 ; RR = 4.254) and C - section before labor(OR = 39.21 ; RR = 31.25). In cognitive/Mini - cex analysis were noted significant difference in the performance of students on the subject (3.75 ± 0.93, 4.03 ± 0.94 and 4.88 ± 0.35). We still observed the best performance of residents, when compared to graduation students (p < 0.01). Conclusions: the prevalence of near miss was associated with socioeconomic/clinics factors and care issues, revealing the importance of interventions to improve these indicators. In addition, we suggest a better curriculum insertion of this subject in the medical Course disciplines due the importance to avoid the near miss through of adequacy of medical education.

Trajetória de pessoas com AIDS em situação de vulnerabilidade social: à luz da história oral de vida

The epidemic caused by HIV presents a global, dynamic and unstable phenomenon, which depends on the individual and collective human behavior. Efforts to deconstruct the stigmatized image caused by infection of AIDS are still often associated with adoption of socially unacceptable behavior to be a circumscribed the susceptibilities of vulnerable individuals and communities to infection, illness and death by HIV. This study aimed to: narrate the trajectory of life of people with AIDS more vulnerable enrolled in the Municipal Social Assistance Parnamirim / RN. It is a study of qualitative, exploratory and descriptive approach, taking oral history of life as technical and methodological framework. The colony consisted of 186 people with AIDS. The network was comprised of 13 employees of both sexes, aged between 19 and 62 years old with positive diagnosis and agreed to voluntarily participate. After approval by the Ethics Committee of the Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte (CEP / UFRN), in the opinion No. 719,926 CAAE: 30408114.5.0000.5537 on 6 June 2014 data were collected from August to September 2014. The employees signed the Informed Consent and Informed and letter of assignment. Held transcribing the interviews and later returned to respondents to retest, ie so that they confer what allowed us to carry out transcreation after consecutive readings. The reports were analyzed through Bardin content analysis. Guiding the analysis of the accounts of employees, we find three themes: Prejudice and discrimination in living with AIDS; Reacting to the diagnosis and the accession process to antiretroviral treatment; and religious coping in people with AIDS. It can be concluded in this study, that employees have shown great emotional impact after positive diagnosis for HIV / AIDS, especially with regard to social life, the family ties, work and above all to the prejudice of society. Treatment with antiretroviral drugs was seen as a motivation to regain dreams and plans for a future once uncertain, and even if it is not a cure therapy, provided the employees improved quality of life.

Capacidades estatais para implementação de políticas públicas em ambientes federativos: o caso do Programa Bolsa Família

This thesis aims to understand the extent to which state capacities of state governments explain the effectiveness of the implementation of Programa Bolsa Família (PBF) in the Northeast, adopting the implementation of the theory as the main theoretical lens and more specifically the concept of state capacity. Methodologically is a study of public policy evaluation, and categorized as a process of evaluation study or implementation. Given the specificity of the object is classified as a multi case study research covering the states of Sergipe, Rio Grande do Norte and Bahia. In addition to using secondary data, the study used semi-structured interviews with members of Intersectoral Committees responsible for the actions of PBF and the Cadastro Único at the state level, composed of representatives of the areas of the state government of Social Welfare, Education and Health. the main findings related to technical and administrative capacities and policies were found: infrastructure with weakness in human resources, technological and financial resources; intra-governmental coordination with boundaries between PBF and Unified Social Assistance System , and the actions of conditionality of health and Health Unic System Basic Attention; intergovernmental coordination carried out mostly by the distance limitations of displacement and incipient regional decentralization of actions; based monitoring in the municipalities of lower performance and from the parameters placed by the federal government and political capacities; representative political system is hardly accessed by instances of program management; minor social participation and low articulation with related issues advice to PBF; audit control by any outside agencies. The thesis concludes that depending on the capabilities found implementing weaknesses are not unique to the program's actions, but from the very institutional capacity of the systems in which it operates that are the Unified Social Assistance System, the Health Unic System and the Educational System. In other words limitations of their own state capacities of the state governments and the municipal governments of each territory, such as quantitative insufficiency and qualification of human resources, financial and institutional resources, lack instance promoting decentralization (Intergovernmental and intra-governmental) as well the weakness or absence of a network of local social services are also factors that explain the program management performance and state capabilities of arrangements formed by states and municipalities in the PBF, only to partially deal with the complexity of joints involving Implementation of the program with regard to inter and intra-governmental action.

Aglomeração urbana descontínua: o exemplo de Araguari e Uberlândia/MG

The analysis of urban conurbations demands the understanding regarding the difference between urban territorial continuity and spatial continuity. While the spatial continuity is understood due to its interrelations and established fluxes, in other words, through the spatial integration, the territorial continuity is related to the urban tissue. Therefore, the spatial continuity can manifest in a simultaneous way or associated to the territorial discontinuity. From this perspective, the main objective of this research consists on identifying and dimensioning the spatial interactions that are driven to a urban conurbation process between the municipalities of Araguari and Uberlândia/MG, besides the not continuity of the territorial urban area. The intensity of these interactions was identified from the displacements by the dwellers from both municipalities in search of job occupations, education and health assistance. So it would be able to reach the proposed objectives we used several methodological procedures, such as a bibliographic and documental researches. In order to identify the education and work fluxes we analyzed the micro data from the Demographic Census 2010. For the educational sector it was also accomplished a research, in Araguari, the place of residence of students enrolled at Instituto Master de Ensino Presidente Antônio Carlos (IMEPAC) and, in Uberlândia, the place of residence of students enrolled at Universidade Federal de Uberlândia (UFU). The identification of health fluxes was done through a research, in Uberlândia, of the inpatients' origin at Hospital de Clínicas de Uberlândia of the Universidade Federal de Uberlândia (HCU/UFU) and, in Araguari, of the origin of patients that are attended at the Pronto-Socorro Municipal. Semi structured interviews were also accomplished with different social actors. Another important step was the use of questionnaires with the inter-municipal public transportation users at their boarding place in Araguari and Uberlândia. This paper was organized in five chapters, while in the first one we accomplished a theoretical discussion over the concept of urban conurbation, in order to presenting the identification and classification criteria and the urban conurbation of non metropolitan criteria. The second chapter analyses the differentiation process between Araguari and Uberlândia, which is a result of the distinct territorial formation of the municipalities. The third chapter analyses the intensity and degree of the spatial interactions between the two municipalities, having as a focus the established fluxes in the work sector. The fourth chapter, on the other hand, focuses on the education and health sectors, while the last chapter accomplishes a discussion to investigate if the analyzed fluxes in the previous chapters make it able to identify if the spatial interactions established between Araguari and Uberlândia are measured through complementarities or dependence. As a result it was possible to identify that, due to the expressiveness of the established fluxes between the two municipalities, beyond the further ones of Triângulo Mineiro and Alto Paranaíba in the three selected sectors, there is a configuration of a discontinuous urban conurbation process. It was also possible to conclude that, despite the fluxes between Araguari and Uberlândia being more representative than the other way around there's a coexistence dependence relationship and complementarity between the two municipalities.
