Classificação Internacional das Práticas de Enfermagem em Saúde Coletiva - CIPESC®: instrumento pedagógico de investigação epidemiológica

A CIPESC® é um instrumento de trabalho do enfermeiro em Saúde Coletiva, que visa apoiar a sistematização de sua prática assistencial, gerencial e de investigação. É também, instrumental pedagógico potente para a formação e qualificação de enfermeiros comprometidos com o SUS. No ensino das doenças transmissíveis, o uso da CIPESC® auxilia a análise sobre as intervenções, ao estimular o raciocínio clínico e epidemiológico do processo saúde-doença e das necessidades de saúde dos indivíduos, famílias e grupos sociais. Com o propósito de desenvolver recursos didáticos para graduação de enfermagem e estimular a reflexão sobre o processo de trabalho de enfermagem, este artigo apresenta o relato de uma experiência de aplicação da CIPESC®, tomando como exemplo a meningite meningocócica.

Avaliação do acesso ao tratamento de tuberculose por coinfectados ou não pelo vírus da imunodeficiência humana

Este estudo objetivou avaliar o acesso ao tratamento das pessoas com tuberculose tanto coinfectadas ou não pelo Vírus da Imunodeficiência Humana (HIV). Trata-se de estudo transversal - com utilização do instrumento Primary Care Assessment Tool aplicado a 95 pessoas - que abordou questões sobre o acesso ao tratamento em município do interior paulista. Para avaliação do acesso ao tratamento, utilizou-se o teste t de Student. Os escores médios das variáveis foram analisados individualmente e comparados entre os dois grupos (pessoas com TB e coinfectadas com HIV e pessoas com TB não coinfectadas pelo HIV). Os escores médios mostraram que as coinfectadas pelo HIV apresentaram maiores dificuldades na obtenção do acesso do que as não coinfectadas. Os profissionais visitavam mais vezes as coinfectadas quando comparadas às não coinfectadas; as coinfectadas quase nunca realizavam o tratamento da doença em posto de saúde perto de sua residência. Há, portanto, necessidade de maior integração e comunicação entre os Programas de Tuberculose e DST/aids.

Heat island simulations in Londrina city, Brazil

This work aims to study the urban heat island on North region of Parana state, Brazil and the influence of land use and urban settlements on the intensity and frequency of occurrence of these events. Through atmospheric modeling whith WRF/Chem model two simulations were made with different land and use files, one with the original land use another obtained from a composition of MODIS-Landsat imagery. The simulations showed good skills compared to observed data. Urban areas presented higher temperatures. Landsat land use has represented better urban heat islands (UHI), the gradient between urban and rural areas was well demonstrated and the correlation coefficient was above 0.92. The model underestimated the maximum values and overestimated the minimum compared with observed data in both simulations.

Do socioeconomic inequalities in mortality vary between different Spanish cities? a pooled cross-sectional analysis

Background: The relationship between deprivation and mortality in urban settings is well established. This relationship has been found for several causes of death in Spanish cities in independent analyses (the MEDEA project). However, no joint analysis which pools the strength of this relationship across several cities has ever been undertaken. Such an analysis would determine, if appropriate, a joint relationship by linking the associations found. Methods: A pooled cross-sectional analysis of the data from the MEDEA project has been carried out for each of the causes of death studied. Specifically, a meta-analysis has been carried out to pool the relative risks in eleven Spanish cities. Different deprivation-mortality relationships across the cities are considered in the analysis (fixed and random effects models). The size of the cities is also considered as a possible factor explaining differences between cities. Results: Twenty studies have been carried out for different combinations of sex and causes of death. For nine of them (men: prostate cancer, diabetes, mental illnesses, Alzheimer’s disease, cerebrovascular disease; women: diabetes, mental illnesses, respiratory diseases, cirrhosis) no differences were found between cities in the effect of deprivation on mortality; in four cases (men: respiratory diseases, all causes of mortality; women: breast cancer, Alzheimer’s disease) differences not associated with the size of the city have been determined; in two cases (men: cirrhosis; women: lung cancer) differences strictly linked to the size of the city have been determined, and in five cases (men: lung cancer, ischaemic heart disease; women: ischaemic heart disease, cerebrovascular diseases, all causes of mortality) both kinds of differences have been found. Except for lung cancer in women, every significant relationship between deprivation and mortality goes in the same direction: deprivation increases mortality. Variability in the relative risks across cities was found for general mortality for both sexes. Conclusions: This study provides a general overview of the relationship between deprivation and mortality for a sample of large Spanish cities combined. This joint study allows the exploration of and, if appropriate, the quantification of the variability in that relationship for the set of cities considered.

Referência e contra referência em saúde bucal: regulação do acesso aos centros de especialidades odontológicas

Objective Based on the system of reference and counter-reference and comprehensiveness in oral health care, we aimed to examine ways of refering users to Specialized Dental Care Centers (SDCC) and the interface between them and Primary Care. Methods This is a cross-sectional study carried out with users and dentists of SDCC in a metropolitan region of Northeast of Brazil. Analyses were descriptive, and the association test was done with chi-square. Results Six forms of entry to specialized service were identified: free demand (13.8 %) and reference by the Primary Care dentist (63.2 %) were most frequent. Users referred by the basic health unit dentist had more interest in making a counter-reference than the others (p<0.001, PR=4.65, 95 % CI: 2.74 to 7.91), while individuals without this referral had 1.49 times more difficulty obtaining care (95 % CI: 1.02 to 2.17). Referral procedures are a decisive factor for counter-references. However, the high demand for primary care services and the short supply these services can offer in the face of needs make SDCC performance difficult. Conclusion The analysis of oral health practices from the perspective of network modeling points to the service's need to establish protocols for regulation in a bid to improve access to and the quality of care provided.
