A produção das perdas dentárias: narrativas de usuários do SUS

For a complete comprehension of the effect of tooth loss is necessary to listen to the patients that have it. This study, of qualitative approach, investigate, in the dental history of users of SUS, listening to his/her experiences with the services of dental care, the reason that lead his/her to dental lost and the repercussion of this in his/her life. The collect of data was made by narrative interview, obeying to a pre-defined schema. The subjects interviewed were six (three of urban zone and three of rural zone), all of them were users of Family Health Units. The criterions of inclusion were the followings: the presence of tooth lost (total lost in both dental arch or in one of them, or partial lost in at least six elements in one of the arches); age between 25 and 59; male or female; to live in municipal district of São Tomé/RN or Natal/RN. Based on previous interviews was elaborated the odontological history of each patient. Such narratives, systemized in odontological history, were analyzed taking as base the studies of Souza71 and the proposal of Schutze, suggested for Jovchelovitch, Bauer34. The results show that toothache was the main reason for the search of odontological care. The patients confront the ache with home-made medicaments, allopathic ones, and searching for dental care. The searching for exodontics was stimulated for geographic access difficulties or for repressed demand, which as a result produced the aggravation of the lesions and the discredit in restoration s treatment. The self-care practice of tooth-brush with juá or toothpaste and the controlled ingestion of sugar was not sufficient to avoid dental lost. Guilty sentiments were identified in relation with lack of care with teeth. The acceptance of dental lost as a natural factor is an important motivation in lack of pain and in the belief that it was a simple part of life in old age. Life with dental prosthesis makes clear the difference between which was natural and which was unnatural, and difficulties with the prosthesis appeared. The limitation of the prosthesis in its functional aspect can be compensated by esthetic restitution, making possible smiling expression. Starting with this study and considering the high number of dental lost, mainly in low-rent population, which live with toothless limitations or bad-quality prosthesis which do not rehabilitate adequately, we suggested the realization of qualitative researches which include, also, another actors in heath care services such as professionals and administrators

Os agentes funerários e a morte: o cuidado presente diante da vida ausente

The present time is marked by the art of escape from death, which has become synonymous with failure, its exposure has become intolerable and the care of the dead body were assigned to third parties who market this practice through services and products that shape the market undertaker. In this context, in which death is an object of study, has arisen funeral officers, as professionals dealing with a dead body, with the pain of relatives and their reactions, often being the first to have contact with the death scene. As professionals in the health area, the morticians also deal with death. The first attempt to prevent the arrival of death, funeral officers already has begun their work routine from there. Death and its surrounding part of their profession. What about those professionals whose work demands as a feared and denied by society? This study aims to understand the intents, meanings and implications for the mortician to deal with death in their daily work in order to focus renewed attention to the care of these professionals. To this end, it was carried out a qualitative research grounded in the theoretical framework of Gadamerian hermeneutics for production and interpretation of narratives. It was used two methodological strategies for data collection: in-depth interview with script and workshop with the use of "scenes". Research participants were nine morticians funeral of two funeral agencies of the city of Natal. It was possible to detect the presence of the social imaginary of interdiction on the theme of death from living with feelings of his presence daily, from the need of respondents to naturalize their contacts with death, a requirement of their office to deal with the difficulties of manipulating body fluids and odors, sometimes in a state of decomposition; allied to wishes to achieve the goal of delivering to family-customers a "embellished" body for the final farewell. Being a mortician, in addition to not being a professional motivation, involves facing difficulties related to heavy routine work, low salaries, unprofitable work materials and equipments, besides having to deal with the social gaze that devalues the profession. In turn, they also deal with the pain coming especially from contact with family members, either when they are targets of these feelings of anger, whether they identify with the pain of the bereaved ones. On the other hand, when the recognition and gratitude of the families occur, they find meaning and beauty in their profession of caring for the dead body. The present study by giving voice to morticians has become possible to understand better their profession, the pain that surrounds and care needs of these workers. Finally, it has argued that the mortician may be recognized as a care professional for the way exercising caution with the dead body and their families.

O gênero nas ciências da saúde: produção e reprodução de concepções sobre a diferença entre homens e mulheres

The historical and social process has built models of masculinity and femininity that culminate in standards and norms to be followed by individuals in their social interactions. In recent decades studies based on the discussions that originated in the feminist movement have been investigating how social institutions, including medicine and other health sciences, have established standards of masculinity and femininity throughout the history, nurturing this sexist discourse on common sense and sciences. Social roles are assigned to the genera specifying rigid boundaries of behavior and social control. The notion of the female predisposition to physical and emotional disorders has prompted speculation within academic strands culminating in the creation of specialized medical illness that would prevent the female, the male permeated by notions of endurance and strength has become synonymous of a healthy body, confirming the male domination and the economic and political role of men. This research concerned to study and investigate through semi-structured interviews and content analysis, conceptions of gender and the differences between men and women in reports of 11 health professionals. The results indicate that in large part the conceptions of health professionals reproduce the hegemonic discourse about what being a man and woman. Further research could investigate the relationship between women and men with health care as well the care provided by health professionals

Entre o cárcere e a liberdade: apostas na produção cotidiana de modos diferentes de cuidar

Produção da cultura da beterraba irrigada com água salina.,

The use of low quality water for agriculture should be performed with care to avoiding excessive accumulation of salts in the soil so not to harm crop development. In order to evaluate the performance of beets under the infl uence of low water quality, an experiment was conducted in a greenhouse of the Department of Agricultural Engineering, Universidade Estadual Paulista in Botucatu, Brazil, from April to July 2012. We used the beet (Beta vulgaris L.) in a completely randomized design with 6 treatments and 5 replications, totaling 30 plots. Treatments consisted of NaCl solutions at different concentrations (2.0, 3.0, 4.0, 5.0 and 6.0 dS m-1) plus a control treatment corresponding to water with no additional salt and electrical conductivity of roughly 0.26 dS m-1. Variables evaluated were total production, commercial production, plant height, number of plants and root diameter. Production of the beet crop was affected by the increasing salinity of irrigation water, characterized by reduced root production of the beets. Total and commercial production showed reductions of 8.82 and 12.2% in accordance with the unit increase of salinity.

Estímulo ao desenvolvimento infantil: produção do conhecimento em enfermagem

Este estudo teve como objetivo identificar as ações de enfermagem para estímulo ao desenvolvimento infantil, em periódicos nacionais e internacionais, no período de 2000 a 2009. Revisão integrativa da literatura, nas bases de dados Medline e Lilacs, com análise de quinze artigos. Os resultados apontam o lúdico como essencial ao desenvolvimento infantil, devendo ser explorado pela enfermagem por meio da arte, música, brinquedos e teatro. Amenizar o estresse da hospitalização com adequação ambiental reduz o seu impacto sobre o desenvolvimento infantil. Orientar e intervir nos inter-relacionamentos são ações de enfermagem para o desenvolvimento social e comportamental infantil. Os temas abordados na literatura são fundamentais para uma prática de enfermagem no cuidado integral à saúde da criança.

Grupos de pesquisa em educação em Enfermagem: linhas de pesquisa e produção científica em três regiões do Brasil

Este estudo objetivou identificar as temáticas das linhas de pesquisa (LP) e da produção científica publicada pelos Grupos de Pesquisa em Educação em Enfermagem (GPEE) das regiões Norte, Nordeste e Centro-Oeste do Brasil. Pesquisa documental, descritiva e exploratória. Identificaram-se 12 GPEE, 45 linhas de pesquisa e 448 artigos científicos, 60% dos quais foram publicados em revistas A, B1 e B2. Nesses GPEE, 36% das LP foram sobre educação, porém somente 25% das publicações abordaram este assunto, enquanto 34% das LP enfocaram o tema cuidado, que foi objeto de 44% das publicações. Há necessidade de repensar a organização dos GPEE a partir de linhas e projetos de pesquisa para favorecer a consolidação da temática da Educação em Enfermagem na produção de conhecimentos da área.

Seguimento da saúde da criança e a longitudinalidade do cuidado

Estudo reflexivo com o objetivo de apresentar, na perspectiva da hermenêutica filosófica, elementos relevantes para o seguimento da saúde da criança em atenção primária à saúde. A assistência à saúde da criança tem como eixo norteador o processo de crescimento e desenvolvimento na infância, sendo fundamental conhecer as escolhas e tomadas de decisão das famílias, estimular a produção de narrativas, fortalecer virtudes e experiências cotidianas, contribuindo para enriquecer o cuidado e apreendê-lo numa perspectiva integradora, contingencial, longitudinal e suficientemente boa. O seguimento da criança pode ser tomado como uma tecnologia de cuidado em saúde que não pressupõe um saber a priori, mas remete a uma reconstrução de saberes e práticas com novas dimensões para a produção de cuidados.
