“…However, the [41]. Besides, only a few studies have attempted to holistically understand the facilitators and barriers to hand hygiene among HCWs, and the impact of use of mobile phone text messages and environmental cues [21]. Therefore, our study will explore the facilitators and barriers to adherence to hand hygiene, and the impact of mhealth and environmental cues on hand hygiene practices among HCWs working in maternal and children's wards.…”

“…Similarly, mobile text messages have also been reported to influence behaviour change in a number of healthcare interventions [48,49]. However, their impact on promotion of hand hygiene in HCF settings is still understudied [21]. Mobile text messages are anticipated to promote adherence to hand hygiene by reminding HCWs to wash hands or use ABHR during the critical moments of patient care.…”

“…There is growing evidence that mhealth interventions are critical in improving patients' adherence to treatment as well as adherence of HCWs to treatment guidelines. Despite the impact of mHealth in HCWs' adherence, there is limited evidence about the use and effect of the mhealth in enhancing compliance to WASH practices including hand hygiene among HCWs [20,21]. In addition, there is also evidence that nudges (environmental cues) in schools, have the potential to improve handwashing with soap among school-aged children [22], however, such evidence is limited for HCFs.…”

Background Hand hygiene (HH) among healthcare workers (HCWs) is critical for infection prevention and control (IPC) in healthcare facilities (HCFs). Nonetheless, it remains a challenge in HCFs, largely due to lack of high-impact and efficacious interventions. Environmental cues and mobile phone health messaging (mhealth) have the potential to improve HH compliance among HCWs, however, these remain under-studied. Our study will determine the impact of mhealth hygiene messages and environmental cues on HH practice among HCWs in the Greater Kampala Metropolitan Area (GKMA). Methods The study is a cluster-randomized trial, which will be guided by the behaviour centred design model and theory for behaviour change. During the formative phase, we shall conduct 30 key informants’ interviews and 30 semi-structured interviews to explore the barriers and facilitators to HCWs’ HH practice. Besides, observations of HH facilities in 100 HCFs will be conducted. Findings from the formative phase will guide the intervention design during a stakeholders’ insight workshop. The intervention will be implemented for a period of 4 months in 30 HCFs, with a sample of 450 HCWs who work in maternity and children’s wards. HCFs in the control arm will receive innovatively designed HH facilities and supplies. HCWs in the intervention arm, in addition to the HH facilities and supplies, will receive environmental cues and mhealth messages. The main outcome will be the proportion of utilized HH opportunities out of the 9000 HH opportunities to be observed. The secondary outcome will be E. coli concentration levels in 100mls of hand rinsates from HCWs, an indicator of recent fecal contamination and HH failure. We shall run multivariable logistic regression under the generalized estimating equations (GEE) framework to account for the dependence of HH on the intervention. Discussion The study will provide critical findings on barriers and facilitators to HH practice among HCWs, and the impact of environmental cues and mhealth messages on HCWs’ HH practice. Trial registration ISRCTN Registry with number ISRCTN98148144. The trial was registered on 23/11/2020.

“…Os contextos arqueológicos Guarani são constituídos por sítios diversos, nunca isolados, desde aqueles com grandes dimensões, não raro ocupados por vários séculos a fio -por vezes até por mais de um milênio -até aqueles de pequenas dimensões, limitados a uma ou outra ocorrência cerâmica ou lítica (Noelli 1993(Noelli , 2004 1989, Martins & Kashimoto 2008, Mentz Ribeiro 2008, Noelli 1999. índios aldeados e reduzidos a se rebelarem contra os cristãos e a voltar a viver como os seus antepassados (Monteiro, 1992). Diante da padronização e da peculiaridade dos 2 mil anos da cultura material Guarani, não há razões para não compreende-la enquanto outra destas manifestações.…”

“…A realização de pesquisas arqueológicas em territórios indígenas favorece o combate às origens colonialistas da Arqueologia que possibilitaram, em alguns contextos, que a mesma fosse usada como arma na legitimação situacional do poder das elites dominantes e na marginalização das populações dominadas (Condori 1994, Kojan & Angelo 2005. Além da colaboração entre arqueólogos e índios em prol da construção do conhecimento, tais estudos viabilizam oportunidades para que as vozes discriminadas das populações indígenas se façam ouvidas (Sheppard 2003, Jackson & Smith 2006 e ressaltam o papel ativo das populações frente aos processos de fragmentação territorial e cultural desencadeados pelo colonialismo (Monteiro 1992, Puntoni 2002, Rubertone 1994, Silliman 2005 Apesar destas questões terem sido tratadas em outro lugar (Silva et al no um resumo acerca das características geográficas na região, com ênfase no entorno da área da Aldeia Lalima; 3) uma síntese sobre a trajetória histórica de longa duração da ocupação indígena regional, sistematizada a partir dos pressupostos teóricos apresentados no Capítulo 1.…”

ResumoEsta dissertação apresenta os resultados obtidos com a pesquisa de levantamento arqueológico realizado na TI Lalima, uma aldeia de índios Terena localizada no município de Miranda, Pantanal de Mato Grosso do Sul. A pesquisa foi realizada com o objetivo de contribuir com a História Cultural da ocupação indígena regional, desde o período pré-colonial até o presente. As pesquisas arqueológicas, históricas e etnográficas indicam que a região deve ser entendida como área de mosaico cultural, formado por populações distintas, originárias das áreas adjacentes, desde antes da chegada dos europeus e do início do colonialismo. Os resultados sustentam que a Aldeia Lalima pode ser compreendida como um palimpsesto da História Indígena regional, pois foram detectados sítios e ocorrências arqueológicas constituídos por correlatos materiais relativos à trajetória de ocupação Guarani, da Tradição Pantanal e do contexto etnográfico atual. AbstractThis account shows the results obtained with the archaeological survey developed in Lalima Indigenous Land, a Terena Indians village situated at Miranda city, Pantanal from Mato Grosso do Sul. The survey was developed with the aim to contribute with the Cultural History from regional indigenous occupation, since prehistoric times until the present. The archaeological, historical and ethnographical researches indicate that the region must be understood like a cultural mosaic area, shaped by distinct inhabitants, originary from adjacencies areas, since before of European coming and the colonialism beginning. The results support that Lalima Village can be agreed like a palimpsest from regional Indigenous History, because the archaeological sites detected are shaped by material correlates concerning to Guarani, Tradição Pantanal and ethnographical occupation trajectories.
