Tuberculosis (TB) is one of the most important health problems being faced worldwide. In Brazil, the responsibility for the actions of to diagnosis and control of this disease was transferred to the municipalities within the Primary Health Care (PHC), aiming at improvement in epidemiological indicators, requiring reorientation of the practice of family health teams and requiring methodologies to analyze the extent to which components of the PHC are being achieved. Thus, this study aims to analyze the performance of primary care services in the city of Natal-RN for the diagnosis and control of TB, from the perspective of health professionals (doctors and nurses). The study is descriptive, cross-sectional and quantitative. Data collection was conducted from March to July 2011 and involved 121 health professionals working in 52 health units (family health unit, basic health unit and mixed units). The instrument is structured based on the Primary Care Assessment Tool (PCAT), validated and adapted to assess attention to TB in Brazil, and includes questions regarding the Structure and Process components of health services. For quantitative analysis, it was constructed indicators, whose response patterns are followed according to the Likert scale between one and five, which meant the degree of preference relation (or agreement) of the claims. Values between 1 and 3 were considered unsatisfactory for the indicator, between 3 and less than 4, regular, and between 4 and 5, satisfactory. With regard to inputs and equipment, the units had satisfactory condition for form (  = 4.26), consultation (  = 4.02) and basic basket (  = 4.24); regular condition to pot (  = 3.56) and unsatisfactory conditions for transportation tickets (  = 1.50) and sputum smear microscopy (  = 2.42) and X-rays (  = 1.07). In relation to actions, there was satisfactory development for those focused on the individual patient. Actions aimed at the collective level, as the search for respiratory symptoms (RS), monitoring of contacts and guidelines for the community ranged from regular to unsatisfactory (  = 3.16 -  = 1.34). With regard to training, 94,2% received training to identify RS. As regards the time for diagnosis, the median time elapsed between the identification of RS and the beginning of treatment it was 22 days. In relation to the difficulties faced by professionals in the diagnosis of TB, 56,2% reported that they are related only to health services, especially for the failure in the rearguard laboratory and in the specialized services reference, the lack of human and material resources and low performing an active search. The professionals perceive the performance of diagnosis and control of TB, permeated with limitations and barriers to organizational and operational character of various sizes, emerging the need for effective coordination of various sectors and key stakeholders of TB care, to adoption of a new intersectoral strategies that aim to increase the responsiveness of the PHC, providing the best performance in service delivery to the user, family and community, and ensuring effective action and resolving the needs of this population group.

The objective of analyze the shift of the working process of the ESF team in care of children with disabilities, from awareness-raising actions. It is a qualitative study, with the action-research method. Thirteen health professionals were involved from two teams of ESF unit area of the Unidade de Saúde da Família Dr. Chico Porto (UBSFCP) in Mossoró, from March to August 2011. Data were analyzed following the direction of freirean s thematic analysis. In the situational diagnosis of the current reality of CwD assistance in that UBSFCP, through participant observation and application of semi-structured interviews with professionals, we realize that despite these actions carry some assistance to the CwD, in practice few are used for inclusion and accessibility. The monitoring of the CwD is done through individual consultations by each team professional, home visits when possible, both ruled on the complaints and problems, with little solving in the used actions. Since the need for a change in the treatment model and training requirements as pointed out by professionals in the interview, then we decided to build the proposed of training suggested by the multidisciplinary team and put together collectively the achievement of this moment in all its phases. In the step of implementation (action), aspects related to the current situation in Brazil and Mossoró (Laws, policies and health care) for the CwD and CwD Assistance and their family in the ESF in the first two moments of the first training (action) were contemplate. On the second day we discussed the specialized care to CwD, contribution of the Handicapped Parents and Friends Association of Mossoró and in a second moment a workshop was held in which awareness for inclusion of CwD and actions of ESF were discussed. All these moments were discussed and collectively constructed. In the evaluation, we found that implementation (action) allowed to the professional the comprehension of new understandings about people with disabilities, on ways to include, guiding, caring, watching, and mainly to have a new vision on health assistance of the CwD, expanding assistance beyond clinical aspects and recognizing the educational aspects of the rights and duties of citizens and the inclusion of these children in the social spaces area. As difficulties, we face the need for some professionals to be absent to attend another job, solve personal problems, and little or no participation. Thus, during this action-research, the subjects were able to realize the importance of carrying out their practice to the quality of life for him and to the one they care

It is characterized as an Operations Research or Health System Research with a cross-sectional design and a descriptive quantitative nature. The study was developed from the application of the Opinion Measurement Scale allied to techniques of observation and structured interview in the city of Parnamirim / RN. The sample consists of 409 subjects, 209 professionals of the Family Health Strategy, 30 of the Oral Health Strategy, 19 of the Family Health Support Center, 24 directors of Basic Health Units, plus 68 users with mental disorders and 59 caregivers, respecting the ethical parameters of Resolution 196/96 of the National Health Council, trial registration number: CAAE 0003.0.051.000-11. Quantitative data were submitted to the Epi-info 3.5.2 for analysis. The network of mental health in Parnamirim involves the flow between the FHS, Psychosocial Care Centers, clinics and hospitals, having as main barriers the fragility of the referral and counter-referral system, of the municipal health conferences, of the FHS teams by the limitations in material and human resources as well as the population´s lack of acknowledge about the organization of the mental health network, issues that affect the integral attention. Even though the FHS professionals recognize the importance of their actions, they question their role in mental health care, experiencing difficulties in accessing psychiatric services (76.5%). Although most agree that the mentally ill is best treated in the family than in hospital (65.2%), the community health workers were the predominant category in the partial or total disagreement of this statement (40.8%), who is the professional in greater contact with the family. Nevertheless the caregivers miss the support of the FHS as the main focus of attention is on revenue control. The views of professionals, mental patients and caregivers converged in several statements, showing the main weaknesses to be focused by the mental health network of the city, as the perceptions that: (a) physical strength is needed to take care of mental patients for its tendency to aggression, requiring it to stay in the sanatorium for representing danger to society, (b) only a psychiatrist can help the person with emotional problems, (c) the user of alcohol and drugs does not necessarily develop mental illness, (d) the access barriers and doubts about the quality of psychiatric services, (e) caring of a mental health patient does not bring suffering to professionals. Therefore, the commitment to consensus building, monitoring and evaluation of the network are important mechanisms for an effective management system, reflecting in the importance of strengthening the health conferences and approximating different institutions. The results reinforce the importance of strengthening primary care through programs of continuing education focusing on the actions and functions of professionals in accordance with its competences and duties what contribute to the organization and response of mental health care, favoring user´s care and the promotion of family health

Inserido no contexto das relações estabelecidas entre saúde mental e trabalho, este estudo tem por objetivo analisar as vivências de sofrimento psíquico dos servidores responsáveis pela execução dos serviços socioassistenciais da rede de Proteção Social da FUNPAPA, enfatizando as estratégias que desenvolvem para realizar o seu trabalho de forma a colocarem-se no âmbito da “normalidade”. Pautado nas contribuições da psicodinâmica do trabalho e nos referenciais do campo da saúde do trabalhador, o enfoque teórico-metodológico desta pesquisa consiste em uma abordagem qualitativa, cuja coleta de dados envolveu entrevistas individuais semi-estruturadas e observação participante. A análise dos dados, realizada através da técnica de análise de conteúdo, apontou aspectos relacionados às condições de trabalho e à organização do trabalho atuando como desencadeantes de vivências de sofrimento psíquico, as quais se expressam em ansiedade, insatisfação, medo, tédio, repugnância, dentre outras manifestações. Os aspectos relacionados às más condições de trabalho que desencadeiam o sofrimento psíquico dos servidores da FUNPAPA são: espaço físico sem a adaptação necessária para o atendimento dos usuários, equipamentos obsoletos e/ou com funcionamento defeituoso, escala de veículos irregular e condições ambientais insalubres devido à infiltrações constantes. Como elementos constituintes da organização do trabalho que funcionam como determinantes do sofrimento psíquico vivenciado pelos servidores da FUNPAPA podemos citar: o atendimento aos usuários, a capacitação profissional inadequada ao trabalho que desenvolvem, a avaliação de desempenho, a ausência de reconhecimento social, o quantitativo reduzido de servidores, a rede socioassistencial deficitária e a impotência diante dos limites da política de assistência social para fazer frente às demandas sociais postas a esses servidores. Para lidar com as vivências de sofrimento psíquico de modo a evitar a doença e a loucura esses servidores adotam estratégias de defesa de proteção, incluindo: a racionalização, a religiosidade, os laços de confiança e solidariedade, o absenteísmo, a antecipação das férias, o investimento em atividades desenvolvidas fora da jornada de trabalho, o trabalho itinerante na comunidade e a busca de soluções alternativas para tornar o ambiente físico o mais acolhedor possível. Desta forma, a estrutura deste trabalho abrange três momentos: a referência empírica, o aporte teórico e a discussão dos resultados, respectivamente. Por último, à guisa de conclusão, são apontadas algumas notas para subsidiar uma proposta de promoção da saúde mental no trabalho.

O uso de plantas medicinais para tratamento dos males da saúde está disseminado não só nas áreas rurais como também nas áreas urbanas do território brasileiro. O significado econômico destas plantas medicinais, usadas no atendimento das necessidades básicas de saúde, para as economias domésticas da parte socialmente vulnerável da população, ainda é pouco investigado. Muitas espécies vegetais são comercializadas na cidade de Belém por erveiros em mercados ou feiras livres da cidade. Este trabalho tem como objetivo analisar em que medida a inserção do uso de Plantas Medicinais minimiza os custos do tratamento de agravos atendidos pela Assistência Farmacêutica na Atenção Básica á saúde para o usuário do Sistema de Saúde. Para se atingir esse objetivo, foi realizado um estudo, de natureza exploratória, por meio de aplicação de questionários, utilizando o método de amostragem, definida por critério não probabilístico, no bairro do Jurunas com apoio na Unidade de Saúde Radional II, localizado na Região Metropolitana de Belém no Pará. Foi realizado um levantamento de informações referente ao foco deste estudo no Centro de Referência de Tratamento Natural (CRTN), localizado na cidade de Macapá, que já utiliza as plantas medicinais como recurso terapêutico. No resultado da pesquisa de campo no bairro do Jurunas foi verificado que aproximadamente 50% dos entrevistados praticam a automedicação com plantas medicinais, relacionadas na RDC nº 10/ANVISA, sendo necessária, entretanto, orientação correta para seu cultivo e emprego terapêutico. A comparação entre os gastos com medicamentos sintéticos no tratamento dos sintomas de cinco doenças que ocorrem com frequência no bairro do Jurunas e aqueles resultantes do uso de plantas medicinais, para os mesmos sintomas, revela uma redução no gasto para tratamentos feitos à base de plantas medicinais. Em conclusão, pode-se inferir que esta redução representa uma economia de recursos que o usuário e o sistema deixam de despender quando utilizam plantas medicinais.
