RESUMEN
This study evaluated the good handling practices in the ten Hospital Nutrition Services of the respective hospitals in the South of Brazil, classified as general hospitals. For data collection, there was used a Checklist for Good Handling Practices for Food Services based on current legislation. Among the results, the average of adequacy of the hospitals stand out, showing that the items related to responsibilities and edifications had the lowest adequacies, 67% and 73%, respectively, followed by the food handler block, with 76% of adequacies. The block referring to food handlers showed that few of them sanitize the hands during the change of activity. The classification of hospitals in relation to Good Handling Practices was satisfactory, however, greater failure was observed related to the practices of the food handlers, which are crucial for the safety of food produced in Hospital Nutrition Services.
Este estudo avaliou as boas práticas de manipulação em 10 serviços de nutrição e dietética de hospitais do Sul do Brasil, classificados como hospital geral. Para a coleta de dados, utilizou-se uma Lista de Verificação em Boas Práticas para Serviços de Alimentação baseada na legislação vigente. Dentre os resultados destacam-se a média de adequação dos hospitais, mostrando que os itens relacionados a responsabilidades e edificações apresentaram as menores adequações, 67% e 73%, respectivamente, seguidos com o bloco de manipuladores, com 76% de adequações. O bloco referente aos manipuladores de alimentos mostrou que poucos deles higienizam as mãos durante a troca de atividade. A classificação dos hospitais em relação à Boas Práticas de Manipulação foi satisfatória, no entanto, observou-se que falta o cumprimento de alguns itens, relacionados com as práticas dos manipuladores, que são cruciais para a segurança dos alimentos produzidos nos serviços de alimentação.

The Chilean National School Feeding Program (NSFP) delivers breakfast and lunch meals that supply 250 and 450 kcal, respectively, along the country. In the last decades, a significant increase of obesity has been observed in primary education children, and it involves risk factors of non-communicable diseases. The dietary intake of foods containing phenolic compounds (PC) exerts favorable effects on health by reducing risk factors of prevalent diseases. The aim of the study was to measure the PC content and antioxidant capacity (AC) [ORAC and DPPH] of meals provided by the NSFP in Quillota, Chile, in 2011. The PC supply of the whole meals served ranged from 362.7 to 1,730 mg GAE. The best breakfast foods include whole grain cookie (2.59±0.3 mg GAE/g), bread with avocado, quince jelly or strawberry jam (1.61±0.13 to 2.05±0.3 mg GAE/g); while the best lunch salads include beetroot, lettuce, and cabbage/fish (1.66±0.3 to 2.35±0.1 mg GAE/g), and main courses contain legumes, or mixed vegetables. The lowest PC contents were observed in pasta and rice preparations (p<0.05). Among desserts, the best source of PC is fruit (1.81±0.04 to 6.91±0.31 mg GAE/g). The correlation between PC and AC varied according to the type of meal. PC content and AC are additional criteria for selecting the best quality meals, in addition to the nutrients and energy content. The results support the recommendation to increase the supply of fruits and vegetable/legumes preparations and fruits instead of starchy foods to scholars.
El Programa de Alimentación Escolar (PAE) para enseñanza básica en Chile distribuye, en todo el país, desayunos y almuerzos que aportan 250 y 450 kcal, respectivamente. En las últimas décadas ha aumentado significativamente la obesidad en escolares, lo que induce factores de riesgo de enfermedades no transmisibles. La ingestión de alimentos que contienen polifenoles (PF) ejerce efectos beneficiosos al reducir factores de riesgo de enfermedades prevalentes. El objetivo del estudio fue determinar el contenido de PF y la capacidad antioxidante (CA) [ORAC y DPPH] de los alimentos entregados por el PAE en Quillota, Chile, en 2011. El aporte de PF en las raciones servidas fluctuó entre 362.7 y 1,730 mg EAG. El mejor desayuno contenía galletón con granos integrales (2.59±0.3 mg EAG/g), pan con palta, dulce de membrillo o de fresas (1.61±0.13 a 2.05±0.3 mg EAG /g) y el mejor almuerzo, ensaladas de remolacha, lechuga, o col/pescado (1.66±0.3 a 2.35±0.1 mg EAG /g), y un plato principal con leguminosas o vegetales mixtos. Los contenidos menores de PF se observaron en platos con pastas y arroz (p<0.05). Entre los postres, la mejor fuente de PF es la fruta (1.81±0.04 a 6.91±0.31 mg EAG/g). La correlación entre PF y CA fluctuó según el tipo de preparación. El contenido de PF y la CA son criterios de calidad adicionales al aporte de energía y nutrientes de las preparaciones. Los resultados apoyan la recomendación de aumentar el aporte a los escolares de frutas y vegetales/leguminosas en lugar de alimentos con alto contenido de almidones.

El proceso administrativo involucra 4 pilares fundamentales que no han cambiado de manera significativa a lo largo de la historia. Lo que si ha cambiado es la forma en que estos principios se aplican en el trabajo diario. Sin embargo, y a pesar de la gran evolución del proceso administrativo, la aplicación de estos conceptos a la Gestión en Salud, no tiene más de 20 años. La aprobación de la NTS N°103-MINSA/DGSP-V.01 Norma Técnica de Salud de la Unidad Productora de Servicios de Salud de Nutrición y Dietética pone fin a un proceso de algo más de 3 años en los que se ha buscado dotar a los Nutricionistas de herramientas técnicas y de recursos humanos que les permitan desarrollar al máximo su potencial profesional.
The administrative process involves 4 pillars that have not significantly changed throughout history. The way these principles are applied in daily work is what changed. However, despite the great evolution of the administrative process, the application of these concepts to the Health Management, has no more than 20 years. The approval f the NTS No. 103-MINSA/DGSP-V. 01 "Technical Standards in Health of the HealthServices Producer Unit of Nutrition and Dietetics" ends a process of just over 3 years in which it is have been sought to provide Nutritionists of the technical tools and human resources to order to maximize their professional performance.
