Se obtuvo que los trabajadores no poseían los conocimientos necesarios ni estaban satisfechos con las condiciones y desempeño laborales, pues los criterios establecidos resultaron inadecuados en la totalidad de ellos; en cuanto a la satisfacción de los moradores, solo 8 criterios fueron adecuados. De esta manera, pudo concluirse que los operarios y jefes de brigada no dominaban las actividades diarias de la campaña antivectorial.

A cross-sectional study that aimed to assess the satisfaction of companions with the experience of supporting the parturient, and to identify the related factors. Data were collected at a university hospital in Southern Brazil, by means of semi-structured interviews with 314 caregivers, between October of 2009 and January of 2010. The satisfaction scores were determined by the Cronbach's alpha coefficient. The Kruskal-Wallis and the Mann-Whitney tests estimated the related factors. The mean satisfaction of the companions was high in three domains: 1) How the woman and the newborn were cared for (92,6; SD=11.5), 2) Welcoming in each place (89,9; SD=12.9), and 3) Explanation about what was happening (88,9; SD=14.1). The educational level was statistically related to the satisfaction in domain 3, not being present in the delivery room was statistically related to domain 1, and not receiving instructions from the physician regarding his role was statistically related to domain 2. The companions manifested high satisfaction with the experience of providing support to the women.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to compare the degree of satisfaction of the patients, hearing loss type and severity, and satisfactory and unsatisfactory factors between closed fit hearing aid (HA) and receiver in the canal (RIC) HA. SUBJECTS AND METHOD: Seventeen patients with hearing loss participated in this study. All patients had used closed fit HAs prior to the study, with the ratio of those using in the canal (ITC) types and completely in the canal (CIC) types being 4:13. After a 2-week trial period of using RIC HAs, patients were evaluated for their satisfaction of using RIC HAs by filling out the questionnaire on the Korean version International Outcome Inventory for hearing aids (K-IOI-HA). RESULTS: The visual analogue scale (VAS) score of closed fit HA was higher in the RIC-HAdissatisfied group (5, n=9). The K-IOI-HA score of closed fit HA was higher than that of RIC HA in the RIC-HA-dissatisfied group and similar in the RIC-HA-satisfied group. Audiologically, air conduction and bone conduction thresholds at 500 Hz were lower in the RIC-HA-satisfied group than in the RIC-HA-dissatisfied group. In addition, the VAS score of RIC HA was negatively correlated with air and bone conduction thresholds and the K-IOI-HA score of RIC HA was positively correlated with speech discrimination score, whereas the VAS and K-IOI-HA scores of closed fit HA were not. CONCLUSION: Among the patients with closed fit HA, some patients indicated RIC HA to be suitable and showed intention to change. The HA should be prescribed firstly based on audiologic criteria, which could increase the subjective satisfaction and prevent poor compliance due to incongruity.

A Estratégia de Saúde da Família vem se consolidando como a estratégia prioritária para a reorganização do modelo o de atenção no país. Muitas iniciativas com foco na avaliação da ESF vêm sendo desenvolvidas no Brasil, mas estudos sobre a avaliação dos serviços e cuidados prestados na perspectiva do usuário são ainda escassos. Atualmente o grau de satisfação dos usuários é considerado um componente importante da qualidade assistencial. Este trabalho tem como objetivo testar um instrumento de avaliação da APS pelo usuário, adaptando-o à realidade da ESF em um bairro do Rio de Janeiro. O instrumento europeu de avaliação da qualidade em APS - o European Task Force on Patient Evaluation of General Practice Care (EUROPEP) - serviu como base para este estudo. O trabalho consistiu-se em três fases: revisão, adaptação do questionário; pré-testes com aplicação do instrumento aos usuários da Estratégia de Saúde da Família em um Centro de Saúde Escola do município do Rio de Janeiro.O instrumento revisado contou com 53 perguntas, distribuidas s segundo sete dimensões relacionadas a avaliação da satisfação dos usuários, quais sejam: Acesso; Relação e comunicação; Cuidados médicos; Informação e apoio; Continuidade e cooperação; Organização dos serviços; Condições da unidade de saúde. O melhor indicador chave foi o de relação e comunicação, seguido do de informação e apoio, sendo a pior avaliação, a do indicador organização do serviço. O presente trabalho foi capaz de demonstrar a importância de se avaliar a satisfação do cuidado sob a perspectiva do usuário, e a aplicabilidade prática do instrumentos de avaliação desenvolvido. Dessa maneira, outras metodologias podem ser futuramente avaliadas, no intuito de encontrar maneiras viáveis e fidedignas de avaliação, para que se possa disponibilizar de forma contínua essa importante ferramenta de melhoria de resultados.
The Family Health Strategy (FHS) is being consolidated as a high-priority strategy for reorganization of the national health care model. Many initiatives with a focus on the evaluation of the FHS are being developed in Brazil, but studies of the evaluation of the services and care given, from the user?s perspective, remain scarce. Currently, the user satisfaction level is considered an important component of quality care. This study aims to test an instrument for user assessment of Primary Health Care (PHC), adapting it to the reality of the FHS in a district in Rio de Janeiro. The European Quality Assessment in PHC - the European Task Force on Patient Evaluation of General Practice Care (EUROPEP), served as the basis for this study. The work consisted of three phases: review, adaptation of the questionnaire, and pre-testing the instrument with application to the users in a health center in the city of Rio de Janeiro. The revised instrument consisted of 53 questions, distributed according to seven dimensions, relating to the assessment of user satisfaction regarding the following: access, relationship and communication, medical care, information and support, continuity and cooperation, organization of services, and condition of the health unit. The best key indicators were relationship and communication, followed by information and support, while organization of services had the poorest evaluation. The present work was able to demonstrate the importance of evaluating satisfaction with care, from the user perspective, and the practical applicability of the evaluation tool developed. Thus, other methods can be further assessed in order to find viable and reliable means of evaluation so that we can continue to develop this important tool for improving results.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: MarkeTrak survey is a subjective evaluation method for hearing aid users. This investigation evaluated the level of subjective satisfaction in hearing aid users by adopting the MarkeTrak survey method. SUBJECTS AND METHOD: Ninety-seven subjects participated in this study and replied to the Korean version of 8th MarkeTrak survey. The satisfaction score regarding hearing aids used a 7-point scale to analyze the patient-related as well as hearing aids-related factors. RESULTS: Overall satisfaction rate was 60.8%. Among the patient-related factors, women showed significantly higher satisfaction rate (p<0.05) than men but the level of education affected the satisfaction rate (p<0.05). Hearing aids users showed significantly higher satisfaction rate in small group communication than in other circumstances (p<0.05). The factors related to the hearing aids did not have significant influence on the satisfaction rating. CONCLUSION: MarkeTrak survey is a useful questionnaire for evaluating satisfaction about not only hearing factors but also sociodemographic factors and hearing-aids related factors.
