El objetivo de este estudio fue analizar las dificultades de la participación masculina en los servicios de salud y sus prácticas de autocuidado en el proceso salud-enfermedad. Para ello, se realizó una intervención, a la luz de la educación en salud, con hombres que vivían en el área de cobertura de una unidad de atención primaria, en un municipio del nordeste de Brasil. La intervención fue diseñada por profesionales de la unidad y la tercera etapa consistió en cinco encuentros grupales que abordaron temas relacionados con la salud masculina. Para el análisis de los discursos se utilizó la estrategia de análisis de contenido. La experiencia permitió reflexionar sobre la importancia del desarrollo de acciones estratégicas con el propósito de promover el acercamiento del público masculino al servicio de salud y el autocuidado de los usuarios, especialmente en el escenario de atención primaria, en el marco de la Política Nacional de Atención Integral de Salud para el Hombre (PNAISH). Resignificar las acciones que involucran a la salud del hombre y el cambio de actitud profesional para atender esta población puede desencadenar en el público masculino la sensación de pertenencia al espacio de promoción, protección y recuperación de la salud.
Este trabalho objetiva relatar a experiência da execução do projeto PlanificaSUS na Atenção Primária à Saúde (APS) em Santa Catarina, bem como identificar e discutir os primeiros resultados após 11 meses de aplicação das atividades nos cenários de prática no estado. Trata-se de um estudo descritivo, tipo relato de experiência, elaborado no contexto do desenvolvimento das etapas da APS do PlanificaSUS nas regiões de Foz do Rio Itajaí e Serra Catarinense. Participam do projeto, considerando as duas regiões, 29 municípios com participação de 2429 profissionais de saúde nas programações dos workshops. É possível que constatar que, apesar de ainda não concluído integralmente, o referido projeto é reconhecido pelos atores envolvidos e considerado um instrumento propício para organização dos macroprocessos e microprocessos da APS, apresentando potencial aplicação em outras linhas de cuidado e regiões de saúde do estado de Santa Catarina e assim, ofertar a qualificação do planejamento, operacionalização e avaliação das Redes de Atenção à Saúde (RAS) e dos indicadores de saúde da população catarinense.
This study aims to examine the association between neighborhood environment attributes and changes in walking for transportation among older adults. Longitudinal analysis was performed considering a population-based study (EpiFloripa Idoso), carried out in 2009–2010 with follow-up in 2013–2014. Changes in walking, obtained with the International Physical Activity Questionnaire during both waves were associated with data from the environment perception, evaluated using individual items from the Neighborhood Environment Walkability Scale (baseline only) performing multinomial logistic regression. A total of 1,162 older adults (65.2% women, mean age = 73.7 years) participated. Those who reported the presence of parks and squares (OR = 2.44, 95% confidence interval [CI; 1.70, 3.51]), sidewalks (OR = 1.66, 95% CI [1.03, 2.70]), crosswalks (OR = 1.69, 95% CI [1.05, 2.72]), illuminated streets (OR = 2.80, 95% CI [1.24, 6.33]), and safety for day walks (OR = 1.93, 95% CI [1.14, 3.24]) were more likely to remain active or become active when commuting (≥150 min/week). Older adults are more active in neighborhoods that present more favorable attributes regarding walking for transportation.
This study aimed to examine the relationship between Walk Score index with walking to commuting, moderate-to-vigorous physical activity, and screen time in older adults. Georeferenced addresses were entered into the Walk Score platform. Walking to commute and moderate-to-vigorous physical activity were assessed using the International Physical Activity Questionnaire and categorized according to the World Health Organization recommendations. Screen time was analyzed through self-reported time watching television/being on the computer. We used binary logistic regression to estimate the association between variables. Older adults who lived in places with higher Walk Score had a higher prevalence of walking to commuting (odds ratio = 1.73; 95% confidence interval [1.18, 2.55]) and engaging in moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (odds ratio = 1.76; 95% confidence interval [1.05, 2.98]). A relationship also was observed between higher Walk Score and more time in screen time (odds ratio = 1.67; 95% confidence interval [1.19, 2.34]). The results showed that residing in a more walkable neighborhood increased the chances of the older adults spending 3 hr or more in front of a screen.
