Melhoria da Atenção à Saúde de Hipertensos e/ou Diabéticos, na ESF Carlos Hermógenes da Silva, Vera Mendes, PI

Teve-se por objetivo, com o trabalho de intervenção, melhorar a atenção à saúde das pessoas hipertensas e diabéticas nesse território. Os cadernos de atenção primária do Ministério da Saúde do Brasil auxiliaram a equipe para o desenvolvimento da intervenção de 12 semanas, no período de janeiro a março de 2015. Para implementar a intervenção, foi necessário analisar a situação de saúde da comunidade da mencionada Unidade, identificando-se a falta de registros das ações na saúde dos usuários do Programa e a não utilização de protocolos para a realização das atividades com esse grupo especifico.Os instrumentos utilizados para a coleta de dados, foram a ficha espelho e a planilha de coleta de dados. Foram avaliados 188 usuários hipertensos e 54 diabéticos, com a participação ativa das famílias e comunidade, o que representou 72% de cobertura populacional para os usuários hipertensos e 83,1% de cobertura para os usuários com Diabetes Mellitus. Dentre os resultados principais, devemos destacar a adesão ao Programa, visto que os usuários, familiares e comunidade participaram de forma ativa nas ações, conseguimos realizar exame clínico apropriado que incluiu pês e pulsos, assim como a avaliação do risco individual, criando plano de ações específico para aqueles usuários com risco moderado e elevado no objetivo de erradicar fatores de risco modificáveis procurando melhoria da qualidade de vida, oferecemos orientações individuais e coletivas de qualidade previamente planejadas e discutidas nas reuniões da equipe garantindo assim a capacitação permanente dos profissionais. Hoje a equipe conta com um registro atualizado do Programa que vai nos permitir brindar um acompanhamento de qualidade aos usuários, além disso, foi atualizado o cadastro da população do Programa e das necessidades de medicamentos dos usuários para garantir sua aquisição na unidade. Conseguimos inserir o Conselho de Saúde na rotina da unidade, fato novo, pois nunca antes a comunidade participou na programação das atividades da UBAS, nem realizou controle social. Temos que destacar que o mais relevante foi conseguir que a avaliação fosse integral, com todos os membros da equipe (médica, enfermeira, dentista, nutricionista, psicóloga, fisioterapeuta, técnica de laboratório para extração da amostra do sangue), pois essa atividade causou grande impacto na população. Observou-se a incorporação da intervenção à rotina de trabalho da Unidade, melhora na avaliação integral no processo de trabalho da equipe e uma mudança na atitude dos usuários, famílias e comunidade, quanto à procura do atendimento, visando à promoção de saúde.

Melhoria da Atenção aos Usuários com Hipertensão Arterial Sistêmica e/ou Diabetes Mellitus na UBS Número 2 de Cobé, Vera Cruz/RN

Resumo LOZANO Diaz, Julio. Orientador GOMES de Oliveira Nascimento, Aline. Melhoria da atenção aos usuários com hipertensão arterial sistêmica e/ou diabetes mellitus. 2015. 96f. Trabalho de Conclusão de Curso (Curso de Especialização em Saúde da Família) - Departamento de Medicina Social, Faculdade de Medicina, Universidade Federal de Pelotas, Pelotas, 2015. A Hipertensão Arterial Sistêmica é a mais frequente das doenças cardiovasculares, é também o principal fator de risco para as complicações mais comuns como Acidente Vascular Cerebral e Infarto Agudo de Miocárdio, além de Doença Renal Crônica Terminal. A Diabetes Mellitus configura-se hoje como uma epidemia mundial, traduzindo-se em grande desafio para os sistemas de saúde de tudo o mundo. No Brasil o diabetes junto com a hipertensão arterial é responsável pela primeira causa de mortalidade e de hospitalização, de amputações de membros inferiores e representa ainda 62,1% dos diagnósticos primários de usuários com Insuficiência Renal Crônica submetido à diálise. Neste sentido, o presente trabalho objetivou melhorar a atenção aos usuários com hipertensão arterial sistêmica e/ou diabetes mellitus na UBS número 2 de Cobé, Vera Cruz/RN, melhorando os indicadores de qualidade para garantir os princípios da Universalidade e da Integralidade seguindo os protocolos do Ministério da Saúde. Organizamos as ações levando em conta os quatros eixos pedagógicos para o alcance das metas traçadas: organização e gestão do serviço, qualificação da prática clinica, engajamento público e monitoramento e avaliação. A intervenção foi realizada em um período de 12 semanas. A equipe ficou envolvida em todas as ações realizadas através de consultas e visitas domiciliares, foi realizado o cadastramento dos usuários hipertensos e diabéticos, nas consultas foi realizado exame físico completo e solicitados os exames complementares, foi feita a capacitação dos profissionais de acordo com os protocolos. Os resultados são satisfatórios, pois aumentamos a cobertura de hipertensos para 52,3% e de diabéticos para 76,3%. Os indicadores de qualidade foram 100% (277 hipertensos e 100 diabéticos) o qual resultou em um êxito e a intervenção foi incorporada na rotina da UBS. A comunidade ficou satisfeita pelas ações desenvolvidas e ao incentivar a participação da comunidade no desenvolvimento das ações, criamos uma relação de participação entre os profissionais da UBS e a comunidade, facilitando a percepção dos benefícios e redução da barreira, aumentando a adesão dos usuários às consultas. A intervenção fortaleceu a APS e, possibilitou a vivência dos princípios do SUS. Palavras-chave: Saúde da Família; Atenção Primária à Saúde; Doença crônica, Hipertensão; Diabetes Mellitus.

Melhoria da Atenção aos Usuários com Hipertensão Arterial Sistêmica e/ou Diabetes Mellitusna UBS-ESF Número 4, Vera Cruz/RN

PEREZ Reina, Maria Caridad, GOMES de Oliveira Nascimento, Aline. Melhoria da atenção aos hipertensos e diabéticos, na UBS Numero 4, Vera Cruz/RN. 2015. 98f. Trabalho de Conclusão de Curso (Curso de Especialização em Saúde da Família) - Departamento de Medicina Social, Faculdade de Medicina, Universidade Federal de Pelotas, Pelotas, Ano 2015. No Brasil há cerca de 10 milhões de portadores de Diabetes Mellitus (DM) e 17 milhões de portadores de hipertensão arterial sistêmica (HAS), este número deve continuar a aumentar devido ao envelhecimento da população, a urbanização crescente e a adoção de estilos de vida pouco saudáveis como sedentarismo, dieta inadequada e obesidade. Por este motivo é necessário agir em todos esses fatores de risco para evitar complicações como a doença cardiovascular, a diálise por insuficiência renal crônica e as cirurgias para amputações de membros inferiores. O presente trabalho foi realizado com o objetivo de melhorar a atenção aos usuários com hipertensão arterial sistêmica e/ou diabetes mellitus na UBS-ESF número 4, Vera Cruz/RN para garantir os princípios da universalidade e da integralidade. As ações previstas no projeto foram desenvolvidas no período de três meses, seguindo os protocolos de 2006, para hipertensão e diabetes, preconizados pelo Ministério da Saúde (MS). Foi levado em consideração os quatros eixos pedagógicos para o alcance das metas traçadas que são: organização e gestão do serviço, qualificação da prática clinica, engajamento público e monitoramento e avaliação. Todos os membros da equipe ficaram envolvidos no cadastro de todos os usuários com HAS e DM da área adstrita a unidade, aproveitando todas as oportunidades. Foi feita capacitação da equipe de acordo aos protocolos estabelecidos pelo MS, sobre o acolhimento aos usuários hipertensos e diabéticos, o preenchimento da ficha espelho e planilha de coleta de dados, a busca ativa dos usuários faltosos à consulta nas visitas domiciliares. Os resultados são satisfatórios, pois aumentamos a cobertura de hipertensão para 66,3% representando atendimento de 281 usuários e de diabéticos para 92,4%, 97 usuários atendidos. Para os indicadores de qualidade alcançamos 100% o qual resultou em um êxito e a intervenção foi incorporada na rotina da UBS. A intervenção teve impacto positivo ao estimular a participação da comunidade no desenvolvimento da intervenção conseguimos criar uma interação direta entre os profissionais da UBS e a comunidade o que facilitou a percepção dos benefícios e aumento a adesão dos usuários às consultas e a realização dos exames complementares.

Acolhimento a Demanda Livre na Unidade de Saúde de Gamboa no Município de Vera Cruz-BA.

Acolhimento é uma diretriz da Política Nacional de Humanização (PNH), que não tem local, nem hora certa para acontecer, nem um profissional específico para fazê-lo: faz parte de todos os encontros do serviço de saúde. O acolhimento é uma postura ética que implica na escuta do usuário em suas queixas, no reconhecimento do seu protagonismo no processo de saúde e adoecimento, e na responsabilização pela resolução, com ativação de redes de compartilhamento de saberes. Nesse sentido o presente artigo irá descriminar a implantação do acolhimento à demanda livre na UBS de Gamboa e seus resultados. Com o objetivo de implantar, explicar a população o que é acolhimento e integrar a equipe de saúde a essa premissa, foi desenvolvido o tema e posteriormente elaborado dentro da UBS.

Lung Age Is Related To Carotid Structural Alterations In Hypertensive Subjects.

Hypertensive patients exhibit higher cardiovascular risk and reduced lung function compared with the general population. Whether this association stems from the coexistence of two highly prevalent diseases or from direct or indirect links of pathophysiological mechanisms is presently unclear. This study investigated the association between lung function and carotid features in non-smoking hypertensive subjects with supposed normal lung function. Hypertensive patients (n = 67) were cross-sectionally evaluated by clinical, hemodynamic, laboratory, and carotid ultrasound analysis. Forced vital capacity, forced expired volume in 1 second and in 6 seconds, and lung age were estimated by spirometry. Subjects with ventilatory abnormalities according to current guidelines were excluded. Regression analysis adjusted for age and prior smoking history showed that lung age and the percentage of predicted spirometric parameters associated with common carotid intima-media thickness, diameter, and stiffness. Further analyses, adjusted for additional potential confounders, revealed that lung age was the spirometric parameter exhibiting the most significant regression coefficients with carotid features. Conversely, plasma C-reactive protein and matrix-metalloproteinases-2/9 levels did not influence this relationship. The present findings point toward lung age as a potential marker of vascular remodeling and indicate that lung and vascular remodeling might share common pathophysiological mechanisms in hypertensive subjects.

[the Use Of Fish On Buccal Smear To Investigate Mosaicism With A 45,x Cell Line: Study On Healthy Men And Patients With Disorders Of Sex Development].

To verify whether fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) of cells from the buccal epithelium could be employed to detect cryptomosaicism with a 45,X lineage in 46,XY patients. Samples of nineteen 46,XY healthy young men and five patients with disorders of sex development (DSD), four 45,X/46,XY and one 46,XY were used. FISH analysis with X and Y specific probes on interphase nuclei from blood lymphocytes and buccal epithelium were analyzed to investigate the proportion of nuclei containing only the signal of the X chromosome. The frequency of nuclei containing only the X signal in the two tissues of healthy men did not differ (p = 0.69). In all patients with DSD this frequency was significantly higher, and there was no difference between the two tissues (p = 0.38), either. Investigation of mosaicism with a 45,X cell line in patients with 46,XY DSD or sterility can be done by FISH directly using cells from the buccal epithelium.

Tubular Variant Of Basal Cell Adenoma Shares Immunophenotypical Features With Normal Intercalated Ducts And Is Closely Related To Intercalated Duct Lesions Of Salivary Gland.

The morphological criteria for identification of intercalated duct lesions (IDLs) of salivary glands have been defined recently. It has been hypothesised that IDL could be a precursor of basal cell adenoma (BCA). BCAs show a variety of histological patterns, and the tubular variant is the one that presents the strongest resemblance with IDLs. The aim of this study was to analyse the morphological and immunohistochemical profiles of IDLs and BCAs classified into tubular and non-tubular subtypes, to determine whether or not IDL and tubular BCA represent distinct entities. Eight IDLs, nine tubular BCAs and 19 non-tubular BCAs were studied. All tubular BCAs contained IDL-like areas, which represented 20-70% of the tumour. In non-tubular BCA, IDL-like areas were occasional and small (<5%). One patient presented IDLs, tubular BCAs and IDL/tubular BCA combined lesions. Luminal ductal cells of IDLs and tubular BCAs exhibited positivity for CK7, lysozyme, S100 and DOG1. In the non-tubular BCA group, few luminal cells exhibited such an immunoprofile; they were mainly CK14-positive. Basal/myoepithelial cells of IDLs, tubular BCAs and non-tubular BCAs were positive for CK14, calponin, α-SMA and p63; they were more numerous in BCA lesions. IDL, tubular BCA and non-tubular BCA form a continuum of lesions in which IDLs are related closely to tubular BCA. In both, the immunoprofile of luminal and myoepithelial cells recapitulates the normal intercalated duct. The difference between the adenoma-like subset of IDLs and tubular BCA rests mainly on the larger numbers of myoepithelial cells in the latter. Our findings indicate that at least some BCAs can arise via IDLs.

Action Of Essential Oils From Brazilian Native And Exotic Medicinal Species On Oral Biofilms.

Essential oils (EO) obtained from twenty medicinal and aromatic plants were evaluated for their antimicrobial activity against the oral pathogens Candida albicans, Fusobacterium nucleatum, Porphyromonas gingivalis, Streptococcus sanguis and Streptococcus mitis. The antimicrobial activity of the EO was evaluates by microdilution method determining Minimal Inhibitory Concentration. Chemical analysis of the oils compounds was performed by Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (CG-MS). The most active EO were also investigated as to their actions on the biolfilm formation. The most of the essential oils (EO) presented moderate to strong antimicrobial activity against the oral pathogens (MIC--Minimal Inhibitory Concentrations values between 0.007 and 1.00 mg/mL). The essential oil from Coriandrum sativum inhibited all oral species with MIC values from 0.007 to 0.250 mg/mL, and MBC/MFC (Minimal Bactericidal/Fungicidal Concentrations) from 0.015 to 0.500 mg/mL. On the other hand the essential oil of C. articulatus inhibited 63.96% of S. sanguis biofilm formation. Through Scanning Eletronic Microscopy (SEM) images no changes were observed in cell morphology, despite a decrease in biofilm formation and changes on biofilm structure. Chemical analysis by Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) of the C. sativum essential oil revealed major compounds derivatives from alcohols and aldehydes, while Cyperus articulatus and Aloysia gratissima (EOs) presented mono and sesquiterpenes. In conclusion, the crude oil from C. articulatus exhibited the best results of antimicrobial activity e ability to control biofilm formation. The chemical analysis showed the presence of terpenes and monoterpenes such as a-pinene, a-bulnesene and copaene. The reduction of biofilms formation was confirmed from SEM images. The results of this research shows a great potential from the plants studied as new antimicrobial sources.

[meanings Of The Sickening Process For Patients With Systemic Lupus Erythematosus: A Review Of The Literature.]

Systemic lupus erythematosus is an autoimmune disease that causes many psychological repercussions that have been studied through qualitative research. These are considered relevant, since they reveal the amplitude experienced by patients. Given this importance, this study aims to map the qualitative production in this theme, derived from studies of experiences of adult patients of both genders and that had used as a tool a semi-structured interview and/or field observations, and had made use of a sampling by a saturation criterion to determine the number of participants in each study. The survey was conducted in Pubmed, Lilacs, Psycinfo e Cochrane databases, searching productions in English and Portuguese idioms published between January 2005 and June 2012. The 19 revised papers that have dealt with patients in the acute phase of the disease showed themes that were categorized into eight topics that contemplated the experienced process at various stages, from the onset of the disease, extending through the knowledge of the diagnosis and the understanding of the manifestations of the disease, drug treatment and general care, evolution and prognosis. The collected papers also point to the difficulty of understanding, of the patients, on what consists the remission phase, revealing also that this is a clinical stage underexplored by psychological studies.

Onset Of Hypertension During Pregnancy Is Associated With Long-term Worse Blood Pressure Control And Adverse Cardiac Remodeling.

Up to 20% of women with hypertensive pregnancy disorders might persist with chronic hypertension. This study compared clinical and echocardiographic features between women whose hypertension began as hypertensive pregnancy disorders (PH group) and women whose diagnosis of hypertension did not occur during pregnancy (NPH group). Fifty PH and 100 NPH women were cross-sectionally evaluated by clinical, laboratory, and echocardiography analysis, and the groups were matched by duration of hypertension. PH exhibited lower age (46.6 ± 1.4 vs. 65.3 ± 1.1 years; P < .001), but higher systolic (159.8 ± 3.9 vs. 148.0 ± 2.5 mm Hg; P = .009) and diastolic (97.1 ± 2.4 vs. 80.9 ± 1.3 mm Hg; P < .001) blood pressure than NPH, although used more antihypertensive classes (3.4 ± 0.2 vs. 2.6 ± 0.1; P < .001). Furthermore, PH showed higher left ventricular wall thickness and increased prevalence of concentric hypertrophy than NPH after adjusting for age and blood pressure. In conclusion, this study showed that PH may exhibit worse blood pressure control and adverse left ventricular remodeling compared with NPH.

The Environment Of Professional Practice And Burnout In Nurses In Primary Healthcare.

to assess how nurses perceive autonomy, control over the environment, the professional relationship between nurses and physicians and the organizational support and correlate them with burnout, satisfaction at work, quality of work and the intention to quit work in primary healthcare. cross-sectional and correlation study, using a sample of 198 nurses. The tools used were the Nursing Work Index Revised, Maslach Burnout Inventory and a form to characterize the nurses. To analyze the data, descriptive statistics were applied and Spearman's correlation coefficient was used. the nurses assessed that the environment is partially favorable for: autonomy, professional relationship and organizational support and that the control over this environment is limited. Significant correlations were evidenced between the Nursing Work Index Revised, Maslach Burnout Inventory and the variables: satisfaction at work, quality of care and the intent to quit the job. the nurses' perceptions regarding the environment of practice are correlated with burnout, satisfaction at work, quality of care and the intent to quit the job. This study provides support for the restructuring of work processes in the primary health care environment and for communication among the health service management, human resources and occupational health areas.

Polymorphism In Lep And Lepr May Modify Leptin Levels And Represent Risk Factors For Thyroid Cancer.

Purpose. To understand the role of polymorphisms in the LEP (rs7799039 and rs2167270) and LEPR (rs1137101 and rs1137100) genes in DTC susceptibility and their effect on leptin levels. Methods. We studied 153 patients with DTC and 234 controls through TaqMan SNP Genotyping and ELISA, comparing these data to the clinicopathological data of patients with DTC. Results. Patients with AA genotype of rs7799039 had higher levels of serum leptin (9.22 ± 0.98 ng/mL) than those with AG genotype (10.07 ± 0.60 ng/mL; P = 0.005). Individuals with AG genotype of rs2167270 also produced higher serum leptin levels (10.05 ± 0.59 ng/mL) than the subjects with GG genotype (9.52 ± 0.79 ng/mL; P < 0.05). A multivariate logistic regression adjusted for gender, age, and BMI showed that the AG genotype of rs7799039 was an independent risk for DTC (OR, 11.689; P = 0.0183; 95% CI, 1.516-90.119). Similarly, AG and GG genotypes of rs1137101 increased the susceptibility to DTC (OR, 3.747; P = 0.027; 95% CI, 1.161-12.092 and OR, 5.437; P = 0.013; 95% CI, 1.426-20.729). Conclusions. We demonstrated that rs7799039 and rs2167270 polymorphisms modify the serum leptin concentrations in patients with DTC. Furthermore, polymorphisms rs7799039 and rs1137101 increase the risk of DTC development, although they do not correlate with tumor aggressiveness.

Distal 22q11.2 Microduplication Combined With Typical 22q11.2 Proximal Deletion: A Case Report.

The 22q11 chromosomal region contains low copy repeats (LCRs) sequences that mediate non-allelic homologous recombination, which predisposes to copy number variations (CNVs) at this locus. Hemizygous deletions of the proximal 22q11.2 region result in the 22q11.2 deletion syndrome (22q11.2 DS). In addition, 22q11.2 duplications involving the distal LCR22s have been reported. This article describes a patient presenting a 2.5-Mb de novo deletion at proximal 22q11.21 region (between LCRs A-D), combined with a 1.3-Mb maternally inherited duplication at distal 22q11.23 region (between LCRs F-H). The presence of concomitant chromosomal imbalances found in this patient has not been reported previously. Clinical and molecular data were compared with literature, in order to contribute to genotype-phenotype correlation. These findings exemplify the complexity and genetic heterogeneity observed in 22q11.2 deletion syndrome and highlights the difficulty to make genetic counseling and predict phenotypic consequences in these situations.

Investigation Of Genetic Factors Underlying Typical Orofacial Clefts: Mutational Screening And Copy Number Variation.

Typical orofacial clefts (OFCs) comprise cleft lip, cleft palate and cleft lip and palate. The complex etiology has been postulated to involve chromosome rearrangements, gene mutations and environmental factors. A group of genes including IRF6, FOXE1, GLI2, MSX2, SKI, SATB2, MSX1 and FGF has been implicated in the etiology of OFCs. Recently, the role of the copy number variations (CNVs) has been studied in genetic defects and diseases. CNVs act by modifying gene expression, disrupting gene sequence or altering gene dosage. The aims of this study were to screen the above-mentioned genes and to investigate CNVs in patients with OFCs. The sample was composed of 23 unrelated individuals who were grouped according to phenotype (associated with other anomalies or isolated) and familial recurrence. New sequence variants in GLI2, MSX1 and FGF8 were detected in patients, but not in their parents, as well as in 200 control chromosomes, indicating that these were rare variants. CNV screening identified new genes that can influence OFC pathogenesis, particularly highlighting TCEB3 and KIF7, that could be further analyzed. The findings of the present study suggest that the mechanism underlying CNV associated with sequence variants may play a role in the etiology of OFC.

Homogeneidade e heterogeneidade nos sistemas educacionais: Argentina, Brasil, Chile e México

This study focus on the reconfiguration of educational management in Argentina, Brazil, Chile and Mexico, which was promoted by the new logic of social regulation and the new role attributed to the State, considering each country's own historicity. So, the cultural factors that interfere on the dynamics of the 90' school reform are analyzed. Aspects that show the homogeneity or heterogeneity of these reforms in the region, as well as local specificities that block out the concretization of the reform are underlined. It is shown that the historicity that characterizes the educational reform has taken, in each country, a form that can be called, in Mexico, conservative rupture; in Chile, conservative continuity; in Brazil, conservative renovation; and, in Argentina, interrupted rupture. Some conclusions about the impact of educational reform in the selected countries are recuperated through the analysis of 186 academic texts on the subject.
