“…The increase in the proportion of ACSC admissions, despite the increase in coverage of PHC, suggests possible difficulties in accessing healthcare services and the lack of adequate and timely child health care, both of which are essential elements of admission prevention (7,15) . Conversely, a study carried out in the Northeast of Brazil observed an increase in coverage and reduction in ACSC admissions among children under five years of age (10) , suggesting that the expansion of PHC contributes to a reduction in ACSC admissions. In São Paulo, there was a fall in ACSC admissions among the general population in 14 of the 17 health regions during the period 2000 to 2007 (5) .…”

“…A study which aimed to assess the reliability of SIH-SUS data by comparing data with information on the patient forms suggested that 20% of ACSC admissions were not recorded (3) . However, a number of studies have highlighted the importance of investigations based on data from the SIH-SUS and consider the system an important source of data for assessing PHC (2,6,10) .…”

“…Despite the low prevalence of ACSC admissions in this age group, this increase is of concern given that, from birth, infants are the target of a number of health policies and child health monitoring and promotion programmes (12) . Admissions among children under the age of one are generally due to problems in the quality of prenatal care, which is part of primary health care, but are also related to birth and new born care which fall under hospital care (10) . Nevertheless, perinatal conditions, which account for a large part of admissions among children under the age of one, may be considered potentially avoidable (2) .…”

“…Data should therefore be analysed by age group to obtain a better understanding of the phenomenon in question (9) and studies of ACSC admissions among children demonstrate the potential of indicators resulting from this type of analysis (6,10).…”

Objective: to describe hospital admissions for ambulatory care sensitive conditions in children under five years of age in the State of Paraná, Brazil by condition type, age group and health region. Method: a temporal ecological study was conducted using data from the Unified Health System Hospital Information System for the period 2000 to 2011. Conditions were grouped in accordance with the list of ambulatory care sensitive conditions in Brazil. Results: there was an increase in the rate of admissions for ambulatory care sensitive conditions in all age groups in 50% of the health regions, with a marked increase in children under the age of one. Pneumonia, gastroenteritis and asthma were the main causes of admissions. There was an increase in the proportion of overall admissions accounted for by pneumonia and gastroenteritis. Conclusion: the increase in admissions reveals the need for actions to improve access to primary healthcare and provide effective treatment of the main ambulatory care sensitive conditions in order to prevent hospital admissions among children.

This research aimed to correlate the indicators of Primary Health Care in their structural components with those of the process and with the results in the municipalities of Mato Grosso, Brazil, from 2008 to 2015. This is an evaluative, quantitative, retrospective research with the use of secondary data from information systems. A matrix is composed of components of the structure (potential population coverage) the process (medical consultation, home visit of doctor and nurse, referral to the specialist, and request of clinical pathology exams), and the result (hospitalization rate due to sensitive causes). It was constructed when primary care, the proportion of live births of mothers with seven or more prenatal consultations, and the infant mortality coefficient) and the descriptive analysis and Spearman correlation coefficient (rho) were performed. The study found that population coverage remained high above 83% and the process indicators suggest an improvement in family health strategy, with a reduction of 63.13% in the average referral to a specialist and 49.71% in the request for clinical pathology exams. However, there was a 7.13% reduction in the average home visit during the study period. There is a correlation between the structure and process component and between structure and result. It has been found that with the evolution of the Family Health Strategy, there were changes in some indicators of primary care, but it is not possible to state that there was a change in the care model.

Dada a importância do cuidado da criança associada a sua vulnerabilidade, este estudo teve por objetivo avaliar a assistência à saúde da criança e analisar fatores associados na Estratégia Saúde da Família de dois municípios da Paraíba, Brasil. Tratou-se de uma pesquisa avaliativa dos atributos da Atenção Primária à Saúde na perspectiva materna. Para a coleta de dados utilizou-se questionário validado no Brasil. Foram atribuídos escores a quatro das dimensões da Atenção Primária à Saúde. Constatou-se que apenas a utilização apresentou valores satisfatórios em ambos os municípios. O escore da integralidade foi adequado em um dos municípios, o qual também apresentou comportamento melhor em todas as dimensões e na avaliação geral dos serviços. Crianças de maior idade e de famílias com maior renda se associaram significativamente à atribuição de baixos escores. Como principal achado encontrouse baixa qualidade de cuidados primários de saúde da criança, sobretudo na acessibilidade e longitudinalidade.
