Objetivo: Examinar o padrão de consumo do tabaco e conhecimentos sobre as doenças relacionadas ao tabaco, assim como identificar os tipos mais populares de mídias entre gestantes para aprimorar estratégias para a prevenção e a cessação do tabagismo entre essas mulheres. Métodos: Estudo transversal com 61 gestantes atendidas em um hospital universitário e em unidades básicas de saúde em Botucatu, SP. A Escala Hospitalar de Ansiedade e Depressão foi aplicada a todas as participantes. Para aquelas com história de tabagismo, também foi aplicado o Teste de Fagerström para Dependência de Nicotina, e foi avaliado o grau de motivação para cessação tabágica nas fumantes. Resultados: Das 61 gestantes avaliadas, 25 (40,9%) eram fumantes (média de idade, 26,4 ± 7,4 anos), 24 (39,3%) eram ex-fumantes (média de idade, 26,4 ± 8,3 anos), e 12 (19,8%) nunca fumaram (média de idade, 25,1 ± 7,2 anos). A exposição passiva foi relatada por 39 gestantes (63,9%). Das 49 fumantes/ex-fumantes, 13 (29,6%) conheciam as consequências pulmonares do tabagismo; somente 2 (4,9%) conheciam os riscos cardiovasculares; 23 (46,9%) acreditavam que fumar não causa nenhum problema para o feto ou o recém-nascido; 21 (42,9%) consumiram álcool durante a gestação; 18 (36,7%) relataram aumento no consumo de cigarros quando bebiam; 25 (51,0%) experimentaram cigarros com sabores; e 12 (24,5%) fumaram narguilé. Entre as 61 gestantes avaliadas, a televisão foi o tipo de mídia mais disponível e favorita (85,2%), assim como a mais preferida (49,2%). Conclusões: Entre gestantes, o fumo ativo, o fumo passivo e o uso de formas alternativas de consumo de tabaco parecem ser altamente prevalentes, e tais mulheres parecem possuir poucos conhecimentos sobre as consequências do uso de tabaco. Programas educacionais que incluam informações sobre as consequências de todas as formas de uso de tabaco, utilizando formatos novos e efetivos para esta população específica, devem ser desenvolvidos para promover a prevenção/cessação do tabagismo entre gestantes. Amostras adicionais para explorar diferenças culturais e regionais são necessárias.

O perfil, na área de saúde, tem por base quantificar a necessidade dos trabalhos a serem executados dentro da interdisciplinaridade. Assim, os trabalhos podem ser direcionados com maior exatidão, correspondendo diretamente aos anseios da população idosa frequentadora dos serviços de saúde. O objetivo desse trabalho é avaliar a realidade do atendimento ao idoso na Estratégia Saúde da Família. Foi utilizado um questionário autorizado pela SBGG/PR, (Sociedade Brasileira de Geriatria e gerontologia seção Paraná) para estudo transversal, que engloba perguntas sobre aspectos sociais, políticos e específicos sobre os atendimentos prestados em uma Unidade da Estratégia Saúde da Família. A população estudada corresponde a um grupo de 90 idosos de ambos os gêneros, freqüentadores da Unidade de Saúde da Família Dr. Nilton Luiz de Castro, no bairro Tarobá no Município de Ponta Grossa – PR. A maioria dos idosos que frequentam as Unidades de Saúde da Família são mulheres; 90% são independentes; 50% esperam entre trinta minutos e uma hora por uma vaga para consulta; 65% das doenças crônicas diagnosticadas são tratadas na unidade de saúde; 100% relataram que não havia nenhum médico especialista na área de geriatria atendendo na unidade de saúde; 90% dos idosos observaram que havia programas de apoio aos idosos na instituição. A falta de informação dos idosos auxiliada pelo descaso dado as suas condições como pacientes especiais, juntamente com a falta de programas para atendimento especializado são os principais problemas que atingem os idosos nas Unidades de Saúde da Família. A maioria dos problemas poderia ser resolvida com a disponibilidade de pessoas treinadas e preparadas para atender esta população.
