Diagnóstico geoambiental e avaliação de risco à saúde humana em terminal de abastecimento no município de Sumaré - SP

The present work deals with the study on the evaluation of the human health risks caused by the leaching of hydrocarbon products from a gas station in Sumaré-SP. First, a geoenvironmental diagnosis had to be done, where information such as: history of the area, chemicals involved, geological characteristics, transport, chemical analysis, were used to make it. The geoenvironmental diagnosis was used in the software RBCA tier 2 which established the risks by all possible pathways. The results indicated that there are risks for groundwater ingestion for commercial (on site and off site) and residential receptors and 10 that there´s risk for inhalation of vapors in enclosed space for the commercial receptor on site. The evaluation also calculated the specific target levels that the area needs to show, in order not to harm human beings and the environment. That makes RBCA a great tool that can helps the remediation actions needed to be done so that the human being and the environment remain secure.

Proposta de um processo de categorização de fornecedores para a execução de projetos

Nowadays, in business environment, organizations seek to differentiate through special programs and plans, taking the concepts of sustainability, performance and benefits generated for society. Based in this competitive environment, as companies depend on the use of subcontractors to perform services for your different customers, the work performed by them is directly related to the vision created by the final customer’s vision of the company responsible for the project. Considering that the supplier hired to execute the project does not share the strategic concepts related to the level of services to be offered to the final customers, thus creating the need to develop methods that enable the alignment between the project owner, responsible for preparing the executive project, and the supplier, responsible for the execution of the work. Tangent to this need, it was necessary to create a method of evaluation and categorization for suppliers to hired for the projects. As a result it has been proposed a process of categorization of suppliers, through the restriction of possible companies to be hired for a project designed to promote alignment between strategies and continuous improvement of the solutions offered to the market

Saúde bucal e educação infantil: avaliação do desgaste e do acondicionamento de escovas dentárias utilizadas por pré-escolares

Introduction: Early childhood is an essential phase of life for the future of oral health. The link between educational and health sectors can facilitate incorporating educational and preventive oral health practices in daily teaching in pre-schools. The main measure is manual tooth-brushing, which is the most accessible method for most of the population. Objective: The objective of this study is to evaluate macroscopically the wear on the bristles, form of storage, and identification of tooth brushes. Material and method: 345 toothbrushes used by children between the ages of 2 and 5 were evaluated in 4 pre-schools, by 2 participants from the oral health program. The Rawls et al. index was used to evaluate the bristles. Result: There were statistically significant differences (p = 0.020 - Mann-Whitney U test) between the frequency of toothbrushes, with the highest being (n = 205) stored at participating school; and, between adequate and inadequate brushes (p < 0.05 - X2 test) with 31.7 and 60%, respectively, classified as unfit for tooth-brushing. Of the toothbrush holders evaluated 100% were used collectively. Regarding identification, 18% of the toothbrushes were not identified in participating schools, and 37% in the others. Conclusion: The toothbrushes exhibited marked wear, and storage was inadequate; however, the schools participating in the oral health program showed toothbrushes with bristles less worn. It is suggested that training of educators regarding correct storage and evaluation of toothbrushes for wear of the bristles should be undertaken in all early childhood schools.

Perfil dos idosos participantes dos programas oferecidos em uma estratégia de saúde da família do município de Ponta Grossa/PR

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.

Promoção e avaliação da atitude de Vigilância Nutricional na Atenção Básica à Saúde de municípios das bacias Piracicaba-Capivari

Considering the importance of food and nutritional surveillance as part of a community's basic health care, our objective was to expose and discuss the educational experience of eleven municipalities of the state of São Paulo geared to build an attitude of nutritional security. The accounts were made in the form of workshops with the contribution of basic health care workers of each municipality, based on daily field worksheets and followed by an evaluation process, which used a semi-structured questionnaire. The results were classified into four categories. The methodology, based on the actual participation in the workshops was considered adequate, although some exposure and removal of personal inhibitions were necessary. These barriers were left behind with the aid of group dynamic exercises. Among the themes treated, anthropometry was highlighted because of insufficient technical know-how and standardization. An attitude towards nutritional surveillance was recognized by the health-care professionals as an important basis for the nutritional practice in order to attain food and nutritional security.
