Análise do desempenho dos serviços prestados através das organizações sociais de saúde no estado do Rio de Janeiro

A partir de 2012, o Governo Estadual do Rio de Janeiro através da Secretaria de Estado de Saúde passou a adotar o modelo de gestão com base em Organizações Sociais de Saúde (OSS), a fim de melhorar os serviços prestados pelas Unidades de Saúde sob sua responsabilidade, ou seja, ampliar a cobertura de atendimento, melhorar o desempenho e reduzir custos. Desde junho de 2014, 80% das Unidades Estaduais de Saúde já eram gerenciadas por Organizações Sociais. O modelo de OSS foi criado com o intuito de publicizar serviços de relevância pública, até então prestados pelo Estado, mas que passaram a ser considerados não exclusivos do mesmo, a fim de alcançar maior eficiência. Nesse contexto, a presente pesquisa tem o objetivo de analisar o desempenho dos serviços prestados através das OSS contratualizadas pelo Estado do Rio de Janeiro (ERJ). Para tanto foi realizada uma contextualização sobre o processo de implementação e acompanhamento dos contratos de gestão na Secretaria de Estado de Saúde do Rio de Janeiro, bem como uma pesquisa documental com o levantamento dos indicadores quantitativos e qualitativos pactuados e os recursos de custeio utilizados, resultando na elaboração de ficha técnica de todos os contratos de gestão. As análises tiveram como foco a evolução dos indicadores quantitativos dos contratos de gestão no ano de 2012 até o 1º semestre de 2015, bem como o desempenho medido pela correlação de resultados de produtividade obtidos com base em indicadores quantitativos. Os resultados encontrados mostram que 80 % dos contratos de gestão de Hospitais Emergência, 75 % dos Hospitais Especializados e 92 % das Unidades de Pronto Atendimento atingem ou superam o grau de desempenho esperado pela SES quanto ao cumprimento do indicador Produção Hospitalar no ano de 2015, com ampliação da oferta de serviços especializados através das OS. Já para o cumprimento do indicador Produção Serviços Auxiliares de Diagnose e Terapia os resultados são 60 % para Hospitais Emergência e 25 % para Hospitais Especializados. Uma das conclusões possíveis e que cabe à SES/RJ, aprimorar sua função regulatória com a efetiva utilização da serie histórica de informações para a construção de indicadores compatíveis com o perfil das suas Unidades. Como sugestão para futuros estudos, aponta-se a possibilidade de realizar a mensuração da eficiência dos contratos de gestão do ERJ através da técnica envoltória de dados que correlaciona um número maior de indicadores qualitativos para verificação da eficiência.

Saúde S.O.S: uma análise do modelo de gestão por organizações sociais no Município do Rio de Janeiro

Com a Lei nº 5.026, de 19 de maio de 2009, o município do Rio de Janeiro passou a contar com a possibilidade de estabelecer parcerias público-privadas na gestão de serviços públicos. A principal motivação era obter maior agilidade e flexibilidade na gestão municipal dos serviços de saúde, uma vez que a morosidade da máquina burocrática inviabilizava a rápida expansão da rede de serviços. Contudo, apesar de a legislação exigir uma série de documentos que comprovem a capacidade técnica e financeira da instituição, quase que diariamente são veiculadas na imprensa notícias de corrupção envolvendo as organizações sociais (OS). Além disso, considerando que é transferida às OS uma parte expressiva do orçamento da Prefeitura da Cidade do Rio de Janeiro, este estudo teve como objetivo examinar até que ponto essas instituições, no âmbito do município do Rio de Janeiro, possuem capacidade organizacional para atuar na gestão do setor de saúde da Secretaria Municipal de Saúde.Para subsidiar a pesquisa, foi construído um banco de dados contendo informações sobre as instituições e o seu corpo dirigente. Como resultado, as organizações sociais foram divididas em três grupos: no primeiro, foram enquadradas as instituições que possuíam maior grau de capacidade organizacional e capacidade de cumprir sua missão institucional constituída com foco na saúde; no segundo, as que apresentam certo grau de capacidade operacional com as suas missões constituídas ou não com foco na saúde; e no terceiro, aquelas instituições que apresentam pouca capacidade operacional e/ou sem foco na saúde, o que pode inviabilizar a sua eficácia organizacional. Nesse contexto, conclui-se que as parcerias devem ser realizadas quando há capacidade institucional do Estado em promover a transparência e accountability e capacidade do mercado em ofertar bons parceiros mensurados de acordo com as respectivas capacidades organizacionais para auferirem eficácia organizacional e, consequentemente, cumprirem com uma missão institucional voltada para a saúde.

INTERVENÇÕES DE PSICÓLOGOS NAS UNIDADES BÁSICAS DE SAÚDE DO GRANDE ABC

Este trabalho tem como objetivo fazer um levantamento das intervenções que são realizadas pelos psicólogos que atuam nas Unidades Básicas de Saúde (UBS) do Grande ABC, bem como traçar um perfil destes profissionais. Pretendeu-se fazer na Região do Grande ABC este levantamento, baseando-se na tradição que a Psicologia tem de pesquisar-se como profissão, nos últimos trinta anos. A análise dos dados da pesquisa se deu através de quatro categorias levantadas a partir das mudanças que o exercício da profissão nas UBS requer: 1) do âmbito do atendimento, do individual para o coletivo; 2) do atendimento em consultório para instituição pública; 3) do enfoque do trabalho, do curativo para o preventivo; 4) da área de atuação, da saúde mental para a psicologia da saúde. Os resultados apresentados são oriundos de trinta e oito entrevistas realizadas com psicólogos das UBS s da Região do Grande ABC, no decorrer do ano de 2002, que trazem as dificuldades para o desenvolvimento das atividades. Dentre elas, destaca-se as de ordem política, econômica e social, que independem do desejo dos profissionais. Além destas, constatou-se dificuldades frente à formação profissional e à compreensão do papel e da função do psicólogo nas UBS s.

A UTILIZAÇÃO DA CONSULTA TERAPÊUTICA COMO TÉCNICA DE INTERVENÇÃO EM UM AMBULATÓRIO DE SAÚDE MENTAL INFANTIL

A problemática da imputação dos custos nos hospitais do Serviço Nacional de Saúde (SNS)

As reformas propostas pelo modelo da Nova Gestão Pública tiveram repercussões importantes ao nível do setor da saúde, levando a que atualmente os prestadores de cuidados de saúde procurem aplicar a melhor prática clínica a um custo socialmente aceitável. A despesa do Estado com a Saúde é cerca de um quinto do total da despesa pública e, mais particularmente, a despesa com hospitais representa pouco menos de metade da despesa com saúde (pública e privada). O elevado peso dos gastos em saúde conduziu a alterações na gestão das unidades de saúde e a uma preocupação crescente com a gestão e tratamento contabilístico dos custos hospitalares. Nasce, assim, a necessidade de uma contabilidade virada para o interior da organização, que forneça informação adequada e atempada, destacando-se neste âmbito a Contabilidade de Custos. Torna-se pois importante que as organizações hospitalares ajustem a sua contabilidade às necessidades atuais, proporcionando uma sofisticada compreensão dos custos, e façam uso de modernas técnicas de imputação e controlo desses mesmos custos. Face ao exposto, o principal objetivo do trabalho é analisar a forma como são imputados os custos nos hospitais pertencentes ao Serviço Nacional de Saúde (SNS) e se existe uniformização nos critérios de imputação. Para tal, efetuamos uma investigação qualitativa através da realização de um estudo exploratório com recurso à Base de Dados de Elementos Analíticos (BDEA) do Ministério da Saúde e dos relatórios divulgados pelo sítio oficial do Ministério da Saúde Português. Observamos que, regra geral, os hospitais portugueses pertencentes ao SNS estão a seguir os requisitos normativos previstos no Plano de Contabilidade Analítica dos Hospitais (PCAH).

Universalização do acesso à saúde e regulação dos planos privados de assistência à saúde: a atuação regulatória da ANS como instrumento de harmonia contratual e viabilização do papel suplementar da iniciativa privada na efetivação do direito social à saúde

While essential to human nature, health and life have been protected since ancient times by various areas of knowledge, particularly by the Law, given its dynamics within the regulation of social interactions. In Brazil, health has been granted major importance by the Federal Constitution of 1988, which, disrupting the dictatorial authoritarianism, inaugurating a Social State and focusing on the values of freedom and human dignity, raises health to the condition of a social right, marked predominantly by an obligational bias directed, primarily, to the State, through the enforcement of public policies. Although, given the limitation of the State action to the reserve for contingencies, it turns clear that an universalizing access to public health is impossible, seen that the high cost of medical provisions hinders the State to meet all the health needs of the rightholders. As a result of the inefficiency of the State, the effort of the Constituent Assembly of 1988 in creating a hybrid health system becomes nuclear, which, marked by the possibility of exploration of healthcare by the private initiative, assigns to the private enterprise a key role in supplementing the public health system, especially through the offer of health insurance plans. At this point, however, it becomes clear that health provisions rendered by the private agents are not unlimited, which involves discussions about services and procedures that should be excluded from the contractual coverage, for purposes of sectoral balance, situation which draws the indispensability of deliberations between Fundamental Rights on one hand, related to the protection of health and life, and contractual principles on the other hand, connected to the primacy of private autonomy. At this point, the importance of the regulation undertaken by the ANS, Brazilian National Health Agency, appears primordial, which, by means of its seized broad functions, considerable autonomy and technical discretion, has conditions to implement an effective control towards the harmonization of the regulatory triangle, the stability and development of the supplementary health system and, consequently, towards the universalization of the right to health, within constitutional contours. According to this, the present essay, resorting to a broad legislative, doctrinal and jurisprudential study, concludes that economic regulation over the private healthcare sector, when legitimately undertaken, provides progress and stability to the intervening segment and, besides, turns healthcare universalization feasible, in a way that it can not be replaced efficiently by any other State function.

A saúde do trabalhador na atenção básica: concepções e práticas dos enfermeiros

This study aims to analyze concepts and practices developed by nurses in occupational health in primary care, and it is justified by the need to expand knowledge of this thematic area. This is an analytical qualitative study carried out in primary care units of health districts of the city of Natal-RN, in one health unit in each neighborhood. Data collection was held from August to October 2014, through semistructured interviews, in the following order: Selection of respondents and scheduling of interview; interviews and application of data collection instrument in order to trace socio-demographic profile of the target population; transcription of interviews; categorization of information and analysis in light of hermeneutic-dialectic. The concept of Occupational Health reported by subjects investigated, although simplified with respect to specificities of workers, was revealed with a wide dimension, with perspective of workers’ approach in their physical, mental and social context, suggesting a good seizure according to the expanded concept of health. Furthermore, it was possible to affirm the recognition of an incipient performance of primary care nurses on Occupational Health, whose performance was appointed as defective. In general, some specific actions of Occupational Health, carried out in health facilities, were cited. Other activities showed up to be routine, being held by a minority of professionals aware of the importance and need to reach these users, in order to engage them in the routine of the health unit. Most professionals reported not having approached Occupational Health during undergraduate nursing, highlighting a lack in theoretical and practical aspects of the area

Trajetória de vida dos pescadores vítimas de lesão medular por mergulho: experiências, representações sociais e estresse

Spinal cord injury causes permanent disabling manifestations, affecting the anatomic integrity, bodily changes and functional limitations related to the disability state. It was aimed to analyze the social representation, stress level and experiences of fishermen victims of spinal cord injury caused by diving accident in the Northern beaches of Brazil. It is a descriptive - exploratory study with quantitative, qualitative and representational data developed i n fishermen’s villages in nine beaches of Northern shore/RN, between October 2013 to August 2014, after the approval of the Ethics Committee in Research of the Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte, under the number 431.891/2013, CAAE 20818913.0.0000 .5537. The sample was composed by 44 fishermen with spinal cord injury, defined from inclusion and exclusion criteria of the participants. It was used as instrument to collect the data a semi structured interview. Quantitative data was analyzed by descrip tive statistics, showing the data through table, boxes and graphics by Microsoft Excel. Data from interviews were submitted to the software called Analyse Lexicale par Contexte d’un Ensemble de Segments de Texte (ALCESTE) using the analysis of the Social R epresentation Theory and Center Core Theory. It is shown the outcomes of the research through four articles, following the normative recommendations of the journals. Participants of the study were all male, age mean 49,6 years, elementary school (68,2%), m arried (77,3%); paraplegia sequel (50,0%). Most of them showed stress (75,0%), almost in the exhaustion stage (33,3%), prevalent insomnia symptoms (95,5%) in the last hours; hypertension (97,7%) in the last week and sexual troubles (95,5%) in the last mont h). Decompressive illness caused spinal cord injury (57,1%), occurred prevalently in low summer (75,0%), northern shore (96,4%), having as main consequences the paresthesia and pain in the upper and lower limbs (67,9%), followed by death (25,0%). Interview analysis under the understanding of Social Representation of spinal cord injury allowed the appearance of seven categories: Treatment: limitation and expectative; Spinal Cord injury: before and after; Retirement: reality yet to come; Disability: dependenc y, incapacity, vulnerability; Overcoming and autonomy; Self feelings: physics losses and new start; Life and labor: impediments, plans and changes. The center core of the representation is found in the first category by the expectative and limitation on th e treatment, meanwhile the outskirt elements are in seventh and third categories. Physics limitation for fishing activities and retirement expectative is the most outstanding of the structure. Social representation concerning spinal cord injury is found in a transaction moment between before and after with the prevented fishing activity, coping of the situation with the potential remaining. The anchoring is established in the desire for changes related to the improvements of life and health conditions exper ienced day by day through faith. This study finishes pointing out the range of the objectives, which topic is relevant for public health of fishermen. It is suggested prevention measures, promotion and health recovery of fishermen, besides safe, healthy an d worthy conditions as a compromise of social and health politics.

Influência da radiação ionizante natural no açude do boqueirão (RN): avaliação de risco saúde/ambiente

The contamination of water bodies with toxic substances causes a decrease in water quality, representing a risk to public health. In this context, human activities are generally seen as the main sources of water degradation. However, elements found naturally in the environment can also compromise water quality. Thus, the Boqueirão‘s dam, located in the municipality of Parelhas (RN, Brazil), was chosen as area for the development of this study, as its geological region is rich in the emission of natural ionizing radiation that produces byproducts like lead and Radon. Moreover, the area has a strong human influence that enhances the risks of pollutant discharge in this body of water.Thus, the objectives of this study were centered (i) in the analysis of risk perception in the city of Parelhas (RN/Brasil) due to the use of the water from the Boqueirão Dam; and (ii) in the assessment of water quality in the Dam using methods that quantify, mainly, heavy metals and radiation levels, as well as these toxics potential of inducing mutations on genetic material. The analysis of risk perception showed that the population in the city of Parelhas can perceive a risk in using the water from the dam and that they can recognize factors that influence the water quality. Regarding the second objective, the set of data point to the contamination of the Dam by heavy metals, as well as levels of radioactive parcicles and Radon – also present in high concentrations in outdoor air and on soil. Thus, it is possible to infer that the population residing in this area is subjected to injuries caused by exposure to natural and anthropogenic contamination. Our findings corroborate with the perception of the population regarding the risks associated with the use of the Dam for several types of activities. It is expected that the information gathered in this study can substantiate activities and future researches in this semiarid region in the Rio Grande do Norte/Brazil. Also, that the set of data can enable a better understanding of the specific toxicological scenario of risk found for the population and the effect of the contamination for the biota, which aids the development of a future risk assessment and a consequent management of this local issue.

As ações em saúde mental nos Núcleos de Apoio à Saúde da Família - NASF

The National Police for Basic Care (PNAB), regulated by ordinance nº2488 from October 2011, restates the Family Health Strategy (ESF) as a priority to the expansion, consolidation and qualification of basic attention to health matters in Brazil. In order to bring it about, city counsellors along with other federal entities ought to ordinate their work process deepening principals, directions and fundaments of Basic Care (AB). Besides ESF, the new PNAB expatiates on the Family Health Support Centres (NASF), reaffirming their role on broadening the scope of basic care actions and their improvements, ratifying their ability to share knowledge and support Basic Care professionals. All this considered, the purpose of this work is to investigate how NASF is currently structured in João Pessoa and what has been achieved by it on what concerns to mental health. Its main objectives are to analyse the practices of mental health professionals that are part of NASF teams and if they differ from what has been developed by the other members of the teams; to discuss the articulation of NASF in managing mental health measures on what concerns to internal organisatio n and to the city health network; to identify strategies used to organise such measures on mental health in Basic Care. To reach such goals, individual interviews have taken place two city health managers and four of NASF professionals that participated on the Mental Health Office as representatives of their sanitary districts. Also a focal group formed by various supporters of NASF was created, contemplating the diversity of professional categories involved with the teams and sanitary districts. It was possible to identify in NASF, in João Pessoa, an organisation based by the matrix support in which both management and basic care demands reflect a series of actions developed alongside with ESF. Amongst such actions, matrixing, home visits and the Singular Therapeutic Project (PTS) stand out. These activities have been discussed on the focal group and integrate the daily work of all NASF supporters despite their professional categories. NASF presents itself as a powerful strategy to SUS proper qualification and support to strengthen Basic Care and broaden family health teams‟actions.

As múltiplas dimensões da garantia dos direitos do paciente idoso internado: o caso de uma instituição hospitalar pública no município de Natal/RN

In the context of current capitalist society, marked by the logic that restricts the human person their status as workforce, in order to generate profits, old age is often treated as an underprivileged life stage. This reality becomes more intense considering the sharp aging process that affects brazilian society is accompanied by the country's entry into a globalized world and tensioned by the dictates of capital. Thus, despite the increasing development of policies to strengthen the guarantee of elderly rights, it is necessary to establish effective strategies of these measures to ensure a higher quality of life to these subjects. Therefore, it is necessary to develop studies that problematize the issue of the elderly, which represent a growing portion of the population, and hence have more visible demands, including in health. With the increase in the elderly population in Brazil it is possible to realize the country is going through a demographic transition and epidemiological changes that contribute to change the landscape of health care of the elderly, especially the hospitalization. Thus, this study aimed to analyze the multiple aspects of ensuring the rights of elderly patients admitted to the State Hospital Dr. Ruy Pereira dos Santos (HRPS), located in Natal / RN, whose most patients are elderly. Specifically sought to understand the aging process, its social consequences and the vulnerability to which it is exposed, especially during the disease situation; understand the process of construction of the Brazilian public health and their actions for older people; learn the expressions of citizenship formation in Brazil with regard to policies for older people; and investigate the design of health professionals about the guarantee of the right of hospitalized elderly. Starting from an integrated coordinated theoretical and practical possibilities, a qualitative research and literature character, documentary and field was held. For this, there were four semi-structured interviews with health research locus Hospital professionals - namely, two social workers, a doctor and a nurse - as well as life stories with the hospitalized elderly patients, one in each deck the said Hospital, totaling three. The results pointed to the difficulty of health policy become effective as law and stressed one historical scenario violation of the rights of elderly hospitalized patients, which persists due to the precarious situation and the difficulty of effective implementation of the Unified Health System (SUS ) and other public policies to that end.

Perfil de mães e o desfecho do nascimento prematuro ou termo

The birth or delivery under 37 weeks of pregnancy is considered a global public health problem, since it is seen as one of the main risk factors for neonatal morbidity and mortality, particularly in the first week of life. This study had the objective of analyzing the profile of mothers of premature and full-term babies for the outcome of birth. This is an analytical-descriptive and cross-sectional study, with a sample of 109 mothers of all the premature babies and 135 mothers of the randomly selected full-term babies, by drawing, occurred in the period from April to September 2015, in a public maternity. Data were organized on Microsoft Excel 2013; subsequently, there was the analysis of the analytical-descriptive statistics, through Statistica 10, through which the frequencies, proportions, p values, with 5% significance level, through the Chi-square test, were identified. The project was submitted to the Research Ethics Committee of the Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte, receiving a favorable opinion (nº 1047431/2015). This study has enabled us to identify that the socioeconomic profile of mothers of premature and full-term babies showed, in both, low schooling level and low income. In addition, our data point out in the two groups, before and during pregnancy, a high prevalence of sedentariness; statistical significance for overweight and obesity before and during pregnancy, with 42,22% prevalence before pregnancy of mothers of premature babies and 48,62% of mothers of full-term babies; with high blood pressure during pregnancy in 32,11% of mothers of premature babies and 17,04% of mothers of full-term babies. Moreover, pregnancy was only planned in 33,33%, and also unwanted by 21,1% of mothers of premature babies, while 40,37% of mothers of full-term babies planned pregnancy and 17,78% had unwanted pregnancy. With respect to the aggravating factor “illicit drugs”, there was consumption during pregnancy on the part of 8,26% of mothers of premature babies. The most frequent complications were: vaginal bleeding (in 43,12% of mothers of premature babies and 20% of mothers of full-term babies); urinary infection (in 44,95% of mothers of premature babies and 40% of mothers of full-term babies); and stressful pregnancy (in 62,96% of mothers of premature babies and 47,41% of mothers of full-term babies). Accordingly, babies were born with health problems in 58,10% of premature births and there was healthy birth in 96,30% of full-term babies. Therefore, the profile of mothers with obesity and overweight, unwanted pregnancy, user of illegal drugs during pregnancy, stressful pregnancy and vaginal bleeding may be associated with the birth of premature baby as unfavorable and hazardous event for the child’s health.

Plano amostral, ponderação e efeitos do delineamento da Pesquisa Nacional de Saúde Bucal

OBJETIVO: Estimar la prevalencia y la extensión de la caries radicular en la población adulta y anciana de Brasil. MÉTODOS: A partir de los datos de la Investigación Nacional de Salud Bucal (SBBrasil 2010) se examinaron 9.564 adultos y 7.509 ancianos en domicilios de las 26 capitales y en el Distrito Federal y de 150 municipios del interior de cada macro región. Se implementaron criterios de diagnóstico establecidos por la Organización Mundial de la Salud. Para estudio de la prevalencia y de extensión se utilizó el índice de caries radicular y el índice de raíces cariadas y obturadas. RESULTADOS: La prevalencia de caries radicular fue de 16,7% en los adultos y 13,6% en los ancianos; el índice de raíces cariadas y obturadas fue de 0,42 y 0,32 respectivamente, siendo la mayor parte compuesta por caries no tratadas. Se observaron diferencias en la experiencia de caries radicular entre capitales y macro regiones, con valores mayores en capitales del Norte y Noreste. El índice de caries radicular en los adultos varió de 1,4% en Aracaju (SE) a 15,1% en Salvador (BA) y en los ancianos de 3,5% en Porto Velho (RO) a 29,9% en Palmas (TO). Se verificó incremento de caries radicular con la edad y mayor expresividad de la enfermedad en hombres de ambos grupos etarios. CONCLUSIONES: Se identificó una gran variación de la prevalencia y extensión de la caries radicular entre y dentro de las regiones de Brasil, tanto en adultos como en ancianos, y la mayor parte de la caries radicular se encuentra no tratada. Se recomienda la incorporación de este agravio al sistema de vigilancia en salud bucal, debido a su tendencia creciente.
