Racism, Other Discriminations and Effects on Health

We study the probability of perceived racism/other forms of discrimination on immigrant and Spanish populations within different public spheres and show their effect on the health of immigrants using a cross-sectional design (ENS-06). Variables: perceived racism/other forms of discrimination (exposure), socio-demographic (explicative), health indicators (dependent). Frequencies, prevalences, and bivariate/multivariate analysis were conducted separately for men (M) and women (W). We estimated the health problems attributable to racism through the population attributable proportion (PAP). Immigrants perceived more racism than Spaniards in workplace (ORM = 48.1; 95 % CI 28.2–82.2), and receiving health care (ORW = 48.3; 95 % CI 24.7–94.4). Racism and other forms of discrimination were associated with poor mental health (ORM = 5.6; 95 % CI 3.9–8.2; ORW = 7.3; 95 % CI 4.1–13.0) and injury (ORW = 30.6; 95 % CI 13.6–68.7). It is attributed to perceived racism the 80.1 % of consumption of psychotropics (M), and to racism with other forms of discrimination the 52.3 % of cases of injury (W). Racism plays a role as a health determinant.

Conhecimento dos pais perante a criança com febre

Enquadramento – A febre na criança é reconhecida como uma manifestação de doença e encarada por muitos pais com uma conotação negativa, causando grande ansiedade e obsessão pela apirexia. Objetivos – Determinar o nível do conhecimento dos pais/acompanhantes perante a criança com febre; verificar se as variáveis sociodemográficas, contextuais da febre e de caraterização da criança interferem no conhecimento dos pais/acompanhantes perante a criança com febre. Métodos – Estudo quantitativo, transversal, descritivo e correlacional, realizado numa amostra não probabilística por conveniência, constituída por 360 pais/acompanhantes de crianças na consulta de Saúde Infantil, em instituições de saúde públicas, na região centro de Portugal. Recorreu-se a um questionário de autopreenchimento, com caracterização sociodemográfica, da febre, da criança e do conhecimento sobre a febre. Resultados – Amostra com idade média de 34.7 anos ± 7.9, maioritariamente feminina (51.7%). Com fracos conhecimentos perante a criança com febre prevalecem os participantes com idade ≥ 38 anos (36.2%), que coabitam com companheiro(a) (77.0%), em zona rural (69.3%) e com escolaridade até ao 3º ciclo (53.9%). Os participantes com idade até 37 anos (68,2%), com companheiro(a) (89.0%), residentes em zona urbana (53.0%) e com o ensino superior (43.3%) revelaram bons conhecimentos. As principais fontes de informação sobre a febre foram o médico (65.8%) e o enfermeiro (50.6%). As mulheres, os acompanhantes de crianças com menos idade e com melhores atitudes revelaram melhores conhecimentos perante a criança com febre. Conclusão: Os resultados apontam para a importância da realização de sessões de educação para a saúde aos pais/acompanhantes, de modo a aumentar o conhecimento perante a febre na criança. Palavras-chave: Conhecimento - Febre - Criança.
