As infecções parasitárias se constituem em um dos principais problemas da saúde pública, apresentando-se de forma endêmica em diversas regiões do Brasil. Estando estreitamente relacionados com fatores sócio-econômico-demográficos e ambientais, tais como precárias condições de moradia, consumo de água não tratada, estado nutricional dos indivíduos, entre outros. O presente trabalho tem como objetivo propor um plano de intervenção para reduzir a alta prevalência de 69% na faixa etária de 5 a 9 anos, com Parasitoses Intestinais, em pacientes com riscos de infecções na Estratégia Saúde da Família Vista Alegre, no município Igreja Nova, em Alagoas. Foram empregados dez passos para a construção do diagnostico situacional através dos conceitos do Planejamento Estratégico Situacional conforme Campos, Faria, Santos, 2010 e uma revisão de literatura utilizando bases de dados da Scielo e Lillacs dentro dos Descritores de Ciências Da Saúde como: Prevalência e planejamento em Saúde. Para tanto, elaboramos um plano de intervenção factível, individual e coletivo, promovendo atividades educativo-sanitárias, preventivas e corretivas da população assistida com riscos de infecções, com o objetivo de reduzir a prevalência na população referida, modificando nela, estilos de vida inadequados. Sendo assim, esta proposta, é uma ferramenta de trabalho viável para transformar a consciência das pessoas que fazem parte da comunidade e da sociedade local, empoderando ao paciente como principal protagonista do seu processo saúde-doença, o que consequente e favoravelmente, ajudará a melhorar os indicadores da saúde; podendo influenciar na qualidade de vida da população atendida

As doenças cardiovasculares, como infartos, acidentes vasculares cerebrais, continuam sendo a primeira causa de morte no mundo. No Brasil uma a cada três mortes é causada por doenças cardíacas ou acidente vascular cerebral. Identificamos na área de abrangência da equipe Madre Paulina localizada no município Matutina, Minas Gerais, um grande número de pacientes com risco cardiovascular aumentado, decorrente de um estilo de vida não saudável presente na população, bem como a presença de doenças que são fatores de risco cardiovascular como a Diabetes Mellitus, a Hipertensão Arterial e as Dislipidemias. O risco cardiovascular aumentado na área da equipe foi escolhido como o problema prioritário devido à importância de um bom manejo das condições crônicas e de outros fatores de risco cardiovascular que são modificáveis. Assim este estudo objetivou elaborar um projeto de intervenção para diminuir e controlar os fatores de risco cardiovascular na população da área de abrangência da ESF Madre Paulina. Para tal, fez-se uma pesquisa bibliográfica na BVS, LILACS, MEDLINE e IBECS com os descritores planejamento em saúde, gestão de risco e doenças cardiovasculares. Na intervenção pretende-se realizar educação em saúde pelos integrantes da ESF e aumentar o conhecimento dos usuários, além de reforçar o cuidado para o risco cardiovascular e capacitação primeiramente dos profissionais participantes, assim como modificar hábitos e estilos de vida. Esta intervenção constitui uma ferramenta da atenção básica para diminuir o risco cardiovascular na população

A hipertensão arterial sistêmica (HAS) é uma doença que representa um dos maiores problemas em saúde pública no mundo inteiro, gerando elevado custo médico e social principalmente por suas complicações como na doença cerebrovascular, na doença arterial coronariana, na insuficiência cardíaca, na insuficiência renal crônica, na retinopatia hipertensiva e na insuficiência vascular periférica. Diante do exposto na literatura sobre a gravidade que está exposta os pacientes hipertensos confrontados pela alta prevalência de hipertensão arterial encontrada na área de abrangência da Estratégia da Saúde da Família São José da Lagoa do Município de Curvelo, Minas Gerais, a equipe muito preocupada decidiu elaborar uma proposta de intervenção com o objetivo de diminuir os riscos cardiovasculares. O trabalho foi elaborado em 03 etapas: diagnóstico situacional para conhecer a situação atual, procurando identificar, priorizar e analisar os problemas, na segunda etapa após a priorização do problema foi realizada de uma revisão narrativa da literatura sobre o tema para subsidiar a elaboração da revisão de literatura e finalmente a elaboração do projeto seguindo os passos preconizados no planejamento estratégico situacional.

Swine production represents an important segment of Brazilian economy, and the possibility of increasing production is eminent mainly if considered the low pork consumption when compared to other meat and the consumption of other countries. The increasing need in the international market demands show that in a near future the commercial barriers will be based on welfare, in the protection of the environment as well as in the worker's legislation. Little knowledge is available in the subject of worker's standards in the environmental agents in rural activities as well as the air quality under Brazilian conditions. The objectives of this research were to apply the main used standards related to noise and gases and to estimate occupational risk using measurements of noise level, hydrogen sulfide, methane and oxygen in swine housing, in piglet's nursery and finishing. The results showed that the continuous noise level were below the one found in the standards, however there were observed differences (P < 0.05) in relation to the noise level measured in piglet's nursing cages and in semi-slatted floor. The respective concentrations of hydrogen sulfide and methane were less than 1 ppm and less than 0,1% by volume, which was lower than the recommended limits in NR-15, CIGR and ACGIH. The oxygen level was 21% in average.

Livestock facilities, where animals carry their productive cycle, must have as main characteristic, the control of influence over climatic factors on animals. The environment variations can be controlled through the use of different ventilation systems. The objective of this research was to evaluate the influence of different environment conditioning systems on swine nursery. Three treatments have been tested: natural ventilation, cooled ventilation and forced ventilation. The climatic parameters evaluated were: air temperature, relative humidity and black globe temperature. The physiological parameters analyzed were: respiratory frequency and back fat thickness. Number of born alive piglets, average weight at weaning and number of weaned piglets were also evaluated parameters. The use of cooled ventilation systems were able to decreased animal's air temperature and respiratory frequency, and the black globe temperature and humidity index (WBGT) and the radiating thermal load (RTL).

This article analyzes food insecurity and hunger in Brazilian families with children under five years of age. This was a nationally representative cross-sectional study using data from the National Demographic and Health Survey on Women and Children (PNDS-2006), in which the outcome variable was moderate to severe food insecurity, measured by the Brazilian Food Insecurity Scale (EBIA). Prevalence estimates and prevalence ratios were generated with 95% confidence intervals. The results showed a high prevalence of moderate to severe food insecurity, concentrated in the North and Northeast regions (30.7%), in economic classes D and E (34%), and in beneficiaries of conditional cash transfer programs (36.5%). Multivariate analysis showed that the socioeconomic relative risks (beneficiaries of conditional cash transfers), regional relative risks (North and Northeast regions), and economic relative risks (classes D and E) were 1.8, 2.0 and 2.4, respectively. Aggregation of the three risks showed 48% of families with moderate to severe food insecurity, meaning that adults and children were going hungry during the three months preceding the survey.

The objective of this study was to analyze the point of view of parents in relation to the cochlear implant, their level of information concerning the implant, its risks and benefits, and their expectations towards their children's future. Ten parents of deaf children candidate for the cochlear implant at Unicamp's Clinical Hospital were interviewed. Based on a qualitative approach, a content analysis showed that the majority of parents seek the cure for deafness, and consequently, the acquisition of speech with the cochlear implant. For these families, the cochlear implant is seen both as the solution to their children's deafness and as a path for a better future. It has been evidenced that during the acquisition of knowledge about the implant, parents experienced anxiety and anguish when faced with the risks and benefits of the procedure, and the need to choose between performing and not performing the cochlear implant.

INTRODUCTION: Subclinical hypothyroidism (SCH), defined as elevated concentrations of thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) despite normal levels of thyroid hormones, is highly prevalent in Brazil, especially among women and the elderly. Although an increasing number of studies have related SCH to an increased risk of coronary artery disease and mortality, there have been no randomized clinical trials verifying the benefit of levothyroxine treatment in reducing these risks, and the treatment remains controversial. OBJECTIVE: This consensus, sponsored by the Thyroid Department of the Brazilian Society of Endocrinology and Metabolism and developed by Brazilian experts with extensive clinical experience with thyroid diseases, presents these recommendations based on evidence for the clinical management of SCH patients in Brazil. MATERIALS AND METHODS: After structuring the clinical questions, the search for evidence in the literature was initially performed in the MedLine-PubMed database and later in the Embase and SciELO - Lilacs databases. The strength of evidence was evaluated according to the Oxford classification system and established based on the experimental design used, considering the best available evidence for each question and the Brazilian experience. RESULTS: The topics covered included SCH definition and diagnosis, natural history, clinical significance, treatment and pregnancy, and the consensus issued 29 recommendations for the clinical management of adult patients with SCH. CONCLUSION: Treatment with levothyroxine was recommended for all patients with persistent SCH with serum TSH values > 10 mU/L and for certain patient subgroups.

OBJECTIVE: To characterize the behavior of premature newborns in the first year of chronological age. METHODS: This is a cross-sectional descriptive study, bound to a longitudinal study titled: Comparison of visual behavior on the first quarter of year of life of premature nursling born at two maternities of Recife/PE. The sample was composed by 52 premature newborns selected from June, 2007 to June, 2008 from the Maternity of the Federal University of Pernambuco (UFPE). Biological, socioeconomic and demographic data was collected through medical records and interviews with progeny. Newborns were evaluated by the Assessment Guide of Visual Ability in Infants. RESULTS: Most of the newborns were male at a gestational period between 33 weeks and 36 weeks and 6 days, showed a good visual behavior development for the age researched, and most of the families showed good socioeconomical and demographic profile. Besides, it was possible to detect ocular signs in 19% of sample, that were referred to an Ophthalmology Service. CONCLUSION: This study results point out the method like an important key in the early detection and visual screening for premature nursling since the first month of life and it led us to believe that clinical view for occupational therapy intervention must be focused not only on biological risks but also at the influence environment in newborn performance.
