RESUMO Objetivo: analisar as ações de cuidado realizadas pelo enfermeiro durante as consultas de puericultura. Método: estudo observacional, quantitativo, realizado com 31 enfermeiros que realizavam consulta de puericultura na Estratégia Saúde da Família de um município da Paraíba (Brasil). Foram observadas três consultas aleatórias por cada enfermeiro participante, totalizando 93 consultas entre março e julho de 2016, por meio de um checklist previamente estruturado, baseado nas diretrizes das políticas nacionais de atenção à saúde da criança, contendo as ações de cuidados que deveriam ser implementadas pelos enfermeiros. A análise foi feita por meio de estatística descritiva, teste qui-quadrado, com nível de significância de 5% e análise de agrupamento. Resultados: as dimensões do cuidado realizadas em maior proporção foram a avaliação da imunização e as suplementações de ferro e vitamina A; a anamnese, o acolhimento, o exame físico/desenvolvimento neuropsicomotor e a educação em saúde foram as menos efetivadas pelos enfermeiros. Conclusão: o cuidado dos enfermeiros na consulta de puericultura está aquém do estabelecido pelas diretrizes de atenção à saúde da criança. Ações de educação permanente para qualificar os enfermeiros para o cuidado integral à criança podem superar essas lacunas.
Objective: to analyze the association between domestic violence against women and quality of life. Method: a cross-sectional population-based household survey conducted with women 18 years and older, using a stratified sample by neighborhoods. For analysis, prevalence of domestic violence and quality of life index was verified and logistic regression was used to determine associations, with a significance level of 5%. Results: 424 women who had a prevalence of domestic violence of 54.4% and a quality of life index of 61.59 participated in this study. It was verified, through logistic regression, that domestic violence is associated with women's quality of life (p=0,017). The observed variables that influence the occurrence of domestic violence were in the social relations domain (p=0,000), provision of medical treatment for women (p=0,019) and safety (p=0,006). Conclusion: the study confirmed the evidence of an association between domestic violence against women and quality of life, a situation that reaffirms the importance of constructing public policies focused on gender emancipation.
RESUMO Os sistemas de informação têm o propósito de auxiliar os gestores nas tomadas de decisões. O e-SUS AB facilita e contribui para a organização do trabalho dos profissionais de saúde na Atenção Básica. O presente artigo tem o objetivo de apresentar o processo de implantação e desenvolvimento do e-SUS AB no Distrito Sanitário IV de João Pessoa (PB), em 2014. Trata-se de um estudo descritivo, na forma de relato de experiência, o qual aponta as dificuldades e qualidades do sistema. Conclui-se que os esforços para reestruturação do sistema só serão efetivos com o apoio dos envolvidos na implantação, na utilização e no aprimoramento do Sistema de Informação em Saúde da Atenção Básica (Sisab) e da estratégia e-SUS AB.
Introduction: Violence against Women (VAW) has been produced under the hierarchical organization of male dominance in social relations between genders. It is a type of social relationship that is historically bounded, culturally legitimized and cultivated, in which the woman is exposed to objective and subjective aggression, both in public as well as private sectors. The consequences of the violence suffered by women materialize in biological, psychological and social harms that hamper them fully experiencing human and social equalities. The persistence and the multiplicity of forms of expressing violence against women, throughout history, indicate the importance of the theme and the need to investigate how this practice interferes with the process of living, illness and death of the victim. Objective: To analyse the cycle of domestic violence against women. Methods: This is a population-based survey, and cross-sectional, exploratory and descriptive study, using a quantitative approach. The study was conducted in the city of Joao Pessoa-PB, from August 2013 to December 2015. The population consisted of 424 women over 18 years old, and residing in the city of study. For data collection, two instruments were used: the WHO VAW STUDY and the WHOQOL BREF scale, validated for assessing quality of life. A descriptive analysis was performed, from absolute and relative frequencies for the following variables: sociodemographic; Domestic Violence against Women (DVAW) and QOL, in addition to the average for continuous variables; under CAAE number 20418813.0.0000.5183. Results: The women averaged an overall score of 61.59 for the quality of life index, on a scale from 0 to 100. Regarding scores for each domain, the domain of social relations had the highest average among the domains (69.84), whereas the environment domain had the lowest average (51.03). Conclusions: Domestic Violence against Women directly and adversely affects the quality of life of the victimized women in numerous aspects, because it interferes with the physical and psychological health of women in society and in their social relations, also bringing consequences for the health system.
BackgroundThe equations predicting maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max or peak) presently in use in cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) softwares in Brazil have not been adequately validated. These equations are very important for the diagnostic capacity of this method.ObjectiveBuild and validate a Brazilian Equation (BE) for prediction of VO2peak in comparison to the equation cited by Jones (JE) and the Wasserman algorithm (WA).MethodsTreadmill evaluation was performed on 3119 individuals with CPET (breath by breath). The construction group (CG) of the equation consisted of 2495 healthy participants. The other 624 individuals were allocated to the external validation group (EVG). At the BE (derived from a multivariate regression model), age, gender, body mass index (BMI) and physical activity level were considered. The same equation was also tested in the EVG. Dispersion graphs and Bland-Altman analyses were built.ResultsIn the CG, the mean age was 42.6 years, 51.5% were male, the average BMI was 27.2, and the physical activity distribution level was: 51.3% sedentary, 44.4% active and 4.3% athletes. An optimal correlation between the BE and the CPET measured VO2peak was observed (0.807). On the other hand, difference came up between the average VO2peak expected by the JE and WA and the CPET measured VO2peak, as well as the one gotten from the BE (p = 0.001).ConclusionBE presents VO2peak values close to those directly measured by CPET, while Jones and Wasserman differ significantly from the real VO2peak.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
