ABSTRACT

Abstract This observational study aimed to describe and analyze data from two external evaluations of the National Program for Improving Access to and Quality of Dental Specialty Centers (PMAQ CEO), held in 2014 and 2018 in Brazil, which evaluated Dental Specialty Centers (CEO) using a national and census approach. We selected questions through a search in the microdata of the first and second evaluations. The groups were analyzed independently. To compare the groups, nonparametric tests were performed (Mann Whitney U). The formulated hypotheses were: there would be no differences between the data of these groups (h0) and there would be differences between the data of these groups (h1). For qualitative nominal variables, frequency distribution was verified and association tests were performed (chi-square test). The significance level for this study was set at 5%. We observed that orthodontic treatments were found in about 13% of the CEO. Regarding human resources, most professionals were specialists or had MSc or PhD degrees; were civil servants; had been hired by direct administration; or had been hired via public tender. Regarding the work process and inclusion of the CEO in the health care network, we observed a greater number of services that use single and electronic medical records, greater presence of services monitoring and analyzing goals, greater knowledge about monthly average of absenteeism (for 2018); and larger number of services with referrals from primary health care centers (for 2014). Expanding the view on orthodontics and including preventive, interceptive, and corrective treatments at different points in health care networks are essential strategies for achieving comprehensive care in universal health systems.

ABSTRACT

Abstract This study aimed to analyze the profile and level of satisfaction of users served in the dental specialty for patients with special healthcare needs (SHCN), based on the Brazilian Program for Improving Access and Quality ("PMAQ") of the Centers for Dental Specialties ("CEO"). This observational, quantitative study used a national secondary database in the public domain. Data were analyzed using the chi-squared test with Bonferroni correction, Student's t-test, and log-linear Poisson regression. Most users of the specialty "SHCN" interviewed were female (74.1% in 2014 and 68.8% in 2018), with a mean age of 41.7 (2014) and 44.9 (2018) years. For every 100 respondents who considered it regular or bad, 171 considered it good, and 199 considered it very good. Regarding satisfaction with the host of the "CEO," there were differences between the regions of Brazil (Midwest, Northeast, Southeast, and South). There has been an increase in the number of "CEO" that serve users with autism spectrum disorder. Generally, the "CEO" network provides humanized and welcoming services, presenting better performance in the second evaluation cycle, according to user perception.

ABSTRACT

Abstract The performance evaluation of services through instruments is relevant, as it can support thoughts, actions and political approaches to meet a social need. The objective of the article was to develop and validate the Quality and Strengthening of Primary Care Questionnaire (QSPC-Q) for professionals and users based on Starfield attributes and Donabedian pillars. A mixed sequential study was performed to develop the QSPC-Q. The test was applied to 149 doctors and 795 users of basic health units. Psychometric properties was assessed by testing internal consistency using Cronbach's alpha and exploratory factor analysis. Reproducibility od scale was assessed using intraclass cognitive and test-retest correlation. The final version of the follow-up consisted of 45 items aimed at physicians (Cronbach's alpha = 0.921) and 33 at users (Cronbach's alpha = 0.86); the intraclass respiratory capacity was 0.88. An exploratory factor analysis identified 13 factors associated with the pattern components. A short version with 29 items for professionals was also elaborated. Professional QSPC-Q (short and braided versions) and user QSPC-Q were valid.

ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT Objective: to perform the cross-cultural adaptation of the Children Care Quality at Hospital instrument to the Portuguese language spoken in Brazil. Method: this is a methodological study on the adaptation of an instrument designed to assess the quality of nursing care from the perspective of school-aged children. For content validity evidence, 13 experts participated, and in the pre-test phase, the instrument was applied to a sample of 40 hospitalized children. The analysis was done using the Content Validity Coefficient and the second-order agreement coefficient to verify inter-rater agreement; while in the pre-test, reliability was calculated using the Intraclass Correlation Coefficient and Cronbach's alpha. Results: the total content validity evidence coefficient regarding the assessment of equivalences and content ranged from 0.876 to 0.993, and the second-order agreement coefficient ranged from 0.935 to 0.951, demonstrating an almost perfect agreement. In the pre-test with children, both the Intraclass Correlation Coefficient of 0.60 and Cronbach's alpha of 0.690 were considered satisfactory. In the adapted version, some terms were improved, and others were kept with the addition of explanatory notes. Conclusion: the Brazilian version of the Children Care Quality at Hospital showed adequate content validity evidence to measure children's satisfaction with the quality of nursing care. In the clinical context of pediatric nursing, the instrument strengthens care paradigms that take into account the child's dignity, respecting their right to be heard and to evaluate the care received.

ABSTRACT

INTRODUCTION: The assessment of responsiveness and the Minimum Clinically Important Difference (MCID) is the basis for validating the Maternal perception of Childbirth Fatigue Questionnaire (MCFQ). OBJECTIVE: To assess the responsiveness and determine the value of the MCID for the MCFQ. METHODS: This is an observational study, conducted at HC-UFPE with 50 parturients in active labor. The MCFQ was applied in two moments: in the initial evaluation (EV1), performed at the beginning of labor between 4-6 cm of uterine dilation, and final (EV2), six hours after the first evaluation. Responsiveness was determined by calculating the effect size (ES), and standardized response mean (SRM), considering that values of 0.2, 0.5, and 0.8 points represent respectively small, moderate, or large values of responsiveness. The ability to detect change through the questionnaire was also assessed by the t-test. The level of significance adopted for this analysis was p less than 0.05. The MCID was verified based on the calculation of the standard error of measurement (SEM) index. RESULTS: The MCFQ showed values of 0.4 and 0.6 for ES and SEM respectively and a p-value <0.001, thus showing a good capacity for change. The value of the MCID for this population was seven points. CONCLUSION: MCFQ presents a potentially significant change with a value of the MCID of seven points after six hours of active labor.


INTRODUÇÃO: A avaliação da responsividade e da Diferença Mínima Importante (DMI) é fundamentação para validação do Questionário de percepção Materna de Fadiga no Trabalho de Parto (QMFP). OBJETIVO: Avaliar a responsividade e determinar o valor da DMI para o QMFP. MÉTODOS: Trata-se de um estudo observacional, realizado no HC-UFPE com 50 parturientes em fase ativa do trabalho de parto. O QMFP foi aplicado em dois momentos: na avaliação inicial (AV1), realizada no início do trabalho de parto entre 4-6 centímetro de dilatação uterina, e final (AV2), após seis horas da primeira avaliação. A responsividade foi determinada pelo cálculo do effect size (ES), standardized response mean (SRM), considerando que valores de 0,2, 0,5 e 0,8 pontos representam respectivamente um pequeno, moderado ou grande valor de responsividade. A capacidade de detectar mudança pelo questionário também foi avaliada pelo test t. O nível de significância adotado para essa análise foi p menor que 0,05. A DMI foi verificada com base no cálculo do índice standard error of measurement (SEM). RESULTADOS: O QMFP apresentou valores de 0,4 e 0,6 de ES e SEM respectivamente e valor de p<0,001, logo apresenta uma boa capacidade de mudança. O valor da DMI para esta população foi de sete pontos. CONCLUSÃO: O QMFP apresenta uma mudança potencialmente significativa com um valor da DMI de sete pontos após seis horas de trabalho de parto ativo.

ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT Objective: To analyze the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on dentists' income and to identify associated factors in one of the poorest Brazilian states. Material and Methods: A cross-sectional study including dentists who volunteered to answer an electronic questionnaire in Maranhão. Hierarchical multinomial logistic regression analyses were performed, estimating crude and adjusted odds ratios (OR) and respective 95% confidence intervals (95%CI) (alpha=5%). Results: The COVID-19 pandemic impacted the professionals´ income negatively [55.44% (50.26-60.52%)] and also positively [6.9% (4.55-9.94%)]. The negative impact on income was greater among male dentists (OR=2.54; 95%CI: 1.16-5.53), over 30 years of age (OR=3.03; 95%CI: 1.34-6.87), with family income below two minimum wages (OR=4.63; 95%CI: 1.50-14.30), who worked in the continent instead of in the capital island (OR=2.21; 95%CI: 1.14-4.29) and in the private sector (OR=31.43; 95%CI: 11.59-85.22). Moreover, those who had been tested for COVID-19, with a negative result, had a 21.3-fold greater chance of having an increased household income when compared to those who had not been tested. Conclusion: The COVID-19 pandemic negatively impacted the dentists' income in Maranhão, especially the older, males, with lower incomes, and who worked in the private sector, living far from the capital. The SUS played an important role in the social protection of dentists during the COVID-19 pandemic, mitigating the economic impacts on the public sector working class.

ABSTRACT

Abstract: The aim of this study was to analyze the prevalence of dental visits due to toothache and tooth extraction in Brazil and its association with individual and contextual variables. This two-step cross-sectional study included persons aged 18 years and older in the 2019 National Health Survey who had visited a dentist in the 12 months prior to the interview (n = 40,369). The individual-level outcome was having a dental visit due to toothache or tooth extraction. The ecological-level outcome was the proportion of dental visits for these reasons relative to all dental visits by Brazilian state. Associations with individual - sociodemographic characteristics, number of teeth, and type of health service used - and ecological variables - HDI and dental service coverage - were assessed using Poisson regressions. The prevalence of dental visits due to toothache or extraction was higher among individuals with no formal education, household income < 25% of the minimum wage, of black and brown skin color, living in rural areas, who consulted in the public health system, with 10-19 and 1-9 teeth, and men. The proportion of dental visits due to toothache/extraction in Brazilian states was negatively associated with the HDI and the rate of dental emergency team/100,000 inhabitants and positively associated with primary dental care coverage. The prevalence of dental visits due to toothache/extraction was associated with individual and ecological characteristics, indicating inequities in reasons for dental visits in Brazil. The potential of a well-structured oral health care network to overcome these inequities is suggested and needs to be better explored.

ABSTRACT

Resumo Objetivou-se avaliar os cuidados em saúde bucal de crianças/adolescentes com Paralisia Cerebral (PC) segundo a gravidade, através da percepção dos pais/cuidadores. Estudo série de casos realizado em serviços de saúde de Pernambuco com 94 mães/cuidadores de sujeitos com PC entre 5 e 18 anos. Avaliaram-se fatores socioeconômicos, demográficos, cuidados em saúde bucal e uso de serviços odontológicos (SO). O Sistema de Classificação da Função Motora Grossa mostrou 67% com comprometimento motor grave. Indivíduos com PC grave tiveram frequência significantemente maior de pertencerem a famílias com renda mais baixa (89%, p < 0,001), residirem no interior (44%, p < 0,005), terem dificuldades de transporte (60%, p = 0,04) e acessibilidade aos SO (88%, p = 0,009) e maior necessidade de higiene bucal (67%, p = 0,008) realizada pelas mães (94%, p < 0,001). Apesar das barreiras de acesso aos SO, o mesmo foi facilitado para aqueles com PC grave, com uso precoce dos SO, mas com baixa oferta de dentistas e de humanização. Esses resultados informam problemas relacionados aos cuidados diários em saúde bucal, contexto de vida das famílias, de apoio institucional e de qualidade dos SO a serem enfrentados com políticas públicas socioeconômicas e de saúde integrais inclusivas e equânimes.


Abstract The aim was to evaluate the oral health care of children/adolescents with Cerebral Palsy (CP) according to severity through the perceptions of parents/caregivers. A case series study was conducted at health services in the state of Pernambuco, Brazil with 94 mothers/caregivers of subjects with CP from 5 and 18 years old. Sociodemographic factors, oral health care and use of dental services (DS) were evaluated. The Gross Motor Function Classification System showed 67% with severe motor impairment. Subjects with severe CP had significantly higher frequencies of belonging to families with lower income (89%, p < 0.001), living in the interior (44%, p < 0.005), having transportation difficulties (60%, p = 0.04), difficulty regarding access to DS (88%, p = 0.009) and a greater need for oral hygiene (67%, p = 0.008), which was performed exclusively by the caregiver (94%, p < 0.001). Despite identified access barriers, dental care was facilitated for those with severe CP, early DS use, but low availability of dentists and low degree of humanization were cited as major problems. These results reveal problems related to daily oral health care, family living context, institutional support and quality of DS that should be addressed in comprehensive, inclusive, equitable social and economic public policies.

Métodos: Estudio transversal, con datos del Programa de Mejora del Acceso y Calidad de los Centros de Especialidades Odontológicas (PMAC-CEO), 2014. Resultados: Se evaluaron 932 servicios: 89,8% contaba con atención a los PNEs, 30,4% tenía accesibilidad física y 59,7% tenía referencia para atención hospitalaria. La mayoría garantía tratamiento completo. Sólo 1/3 ofrecían 40hs semanales de atención PNE. Conclusión: La red de atención para personas con discapacidades se está formando, y a pesar de los incentivos financieros específicos, tiene limitaciones. Los servicios necesitan eliminar las barreras físicas y de actitud para garantizar la accesibilidad universal. Protocolos basados en clasificación de riesgo son necesarios, priorizando la atención en el CEO de los casos complejos, no atendidos en la atención básica y organizando la red de atención en salud bucal de la persona con discapacidad.


Objective: To describe the oral health care services for people with disabilities treated within the Dentistry for Patients with Special Needs (PSN) specialty. Methods: This was a cross-sectional study with data from the Program for Improving Access and Quality of Dental Specialty Centers (PMAQ-CEO) in 2014. Results: Of the total of 932 services evaluated, 89.8% did provide care for PSNs, 30.4% had physical accessibility, 59.7% provided referral to hospital care and most guaranteed complete treatment. Only a third of the Dental Specialty Centers planned 40 or more hours a week for providing clinical care to PSNs. Conclusion: The care network for people with disabilities is being formed but, even with specific financial incentives, it has limitations. Services need to eliminate physical and attitudinal barriers to ensure universal accessibility. Protocols based on risk classification are necessary, prioritizing care at DSCs for complex cases not attended to in Primary Care and organizing the dental health care network for people with disabilities.

ABSTRACT

Abstract Objective: To present the results of preliminary research on the characterization of dental surgeons in the state of Pernambuco, during a pandemic of COVID-19. Material and Methods: This is a cross-sectional, descriptive, and exploratory study, whose population was composed of dental surgeons with active enrollment in the Regional Dentistry Council of Pernambuco. Data collection was performed using an electronic form and included characterization of professionals (gender, age, time since graduation, marital status, family income and field of work) and health status (vaccination schedule, presence of comorbidities, biosafety knowledge and testing for COVID-19). Preliminary data correspond to the first week of collection, which were analyzed from the frequency, proportions, and measures of central tendency distributions. Results: Of the 363 dental surgeons, for the field of work, 38.6% work in both the public and private sectors. Comorbidities related to the worsening of COVID-19 were identified in 35.0% of participants, 24.5% are not up to date with influenza and hepatitis vaccines, and 79.3% have not been tested for COVID-19. Regarding the biosafety instructions for COVID-19, 30.7% received no training. Conclusion: It is necessary to immunize dental surgeons to prevent immunological diseases and expansion of the testing capacity for COVID-19, especially for professionals belonging to the risk group. In addition to guaranteeing the offer of qualification courses on biosafety, which is essential for the safe resumption of activities.

ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT Objective: Describe the relationship between gingival bleeding and risk factors (behavioral and psychosocial) in adolescents aged 14 to 19 years in the city of São Lourenço da Mata, Brazil. Methods: An observational, cross-sectional study was conducted with 1154 adolescents aged 14 to 19 years randomly selected from public schools located in the city of São Lourenço da Mata in the state of Pernambuco, Brazil. Socio-demographic (sex, age and race), behavioral (oral hygiene, smoking, alcohol use and leisure activities) and psychosocial (self-esteem and self-perception) data were collected through self-administered questionnaires. The presence/absence of gingival bleeding was determined using the Community Periodontal Index (CPI). The data were submitted to descriptive statistics and Pearson's chi-square test was used to determine associations between risk factors and gingival bleeding, with the significance level set at 5% (p < 0.05). Results: The response rate was 80% of 1418 adolescents initially proposed to compose the sample and the prevalence of bleeding was 50.3%. No associations were found between gingival bleeding and socio-demographic, behavioral or self-esteem factors. Regarding self-perception, a significant association was found between positive attitudes of satisfaction with one's physical appearance and gingival bleeding (p < 0.05). Conclusion: Gingival bleeding was found in most adolescents, but did not exert an influence on the satisfaction these individuals have regarding their physical appearance.


RESUMO Objetivo: Descrever a relação do sangramento gengival com os fatores considerados de risco (comportamentais e psicossociais) em adolescentes de 14 a 19 anos da cidade de São Lourenço da Mata, Pernambuco. Métodos: Foi realizado um estudo observacional de corte transversal, com fonte de dados primários, com 1154 adolescentes de 14 a 19 anos, de ambos os sexos, selecionados de forma randomizada em escolas públicas localizadas no município de São Lourenço da Mata, Pernambuco, Brasil. Foram avaliados dados não-clínicos: sociodemográficos (sexo, idade e raça), comportamentais (frequência de higiene oral, fumo, álcool e atividades de lazer) e psicossociais (autoestima e autopercepção) coletados através de questionários auto-aplicados e dados clínicos: presença e ausência de sangramento gengival através do Índice Periodontal Comunitário (IPC). Os dados foram apresentados de forma descritiva, onde avaliou a associação entre fatores de risco e sangramento gengival e estatística (Qui-Quadrado de Pearson). Para todas as análises foi estipulado um nível de significância de 5%. O estudo teve 80% de taxa de resposta de 1418 adolescentes propostos inicialmente para compor a amostra. Resultados: Constatou-se a prevalência de 50, 3% de sangramento. Não houve associação entre sangramento gengival e fatores sociodemográficos, comportamentais e autoestima. Em relação à autopercepção, foi encontrada associação significante entre atitudes positivas de satisfação com a aparência física e a presença de sangramento (p<0.05). Conclusão: O sangramento gengival ainda está presente em grande parte dos adolescentes, porém nãoinfluencia na satisfação desses indivíduos com a sua aparência física.

ABSTRACT

Resumo O nexo causal entre as condições de saúde das populações e o ordenamento socioeconômico de distintas sociedades vem sendo inequivocamente demonstrado por tratar-se de um objeto cuja determinação não é exclusivamente biológica, mas também histórica e social. No Brasil, esse debate se desenha quando a saúde passa a ser apreendida como questão social, e ganha destaque no momento em que as formulações sobre desenvolvimento, subdesenvolvimento e dependência são difundidas. Este estudo - descritivo, exploratório e de natureza quantitativa - objetivou analisar as condições sociossanitárias da população que reside em um específico polo de crescimento em Pernambuco, cujas estratégias de desenvolvimento vêm sendo formuladas à luz da ideologia novo-desenvolvimentista. A análise das condições sociossanitárias foi realizada através de um conjunto de indicadores socioeconômicos e de saúde, e os valores alcançados pelo PIB e PIB per capita dessa região confirmam o expressivo crescimento econômico, embora, concomitantemente, haja crescimento da desigualdade de renda e da concentração da riqueza. Foi possível concluir que esse modelo de crescimento econômico não assegura transformações no padrão de vida da população, pelo contrário, ocasiona sérios problemas médico-sociais.


Abstract The correlation between populations' health and socioeconomic planning of different communities has undisputedly become evident, especially because its determination factors are not only biological, but also historical and social. In Brazil, this debate was set when health started to be considered a social issue and it was highlighted by the time postulations on development, underdevelopment and dependence were precisely widespread. This descriptive/exploratory study - developed with quantitative data - aims at analyzing the socio-sanitary conditions of the population that lives in a specific industrial developing center in Pernambuco, Brazil, which follows strategies that have been formulated in light of the new developmentalist ideology. We analyzed socio-sanitary conditions through a set of socioeconomic and health indicators, and this region's GDP and GDP per capita values confirm a significant economic growth, even though, at the same time, income inequality and concentration of wealth have also grown. Thus, we concluded that this economic model does not guarantee improvements on populations standard of living, but causes serious medical and social problems.

ABSTRACT

Objective: To analyze the correlations between the production of specialized dental procedures from 2008 to 2012 and factors related to the services and context of the Brazilian states. Material and Methods: A quantitative ecological-type study was developed, in which secondary data from Brazilian national databases were used. Procedures for outpatient production of specialized procedures throughout Brazil, from 2008 to 2012, were consolidated from the offering state, the state of the federation being the analysis unit. In order to collect data on coverage by oral health family teams in the Family Health Strategy, as well as the number of CEOs per state, the Strategic Support Management Room (SAGE) was accessed. The corresponding indicator mean proportion of specialized procedures in Brazil (Pmb) was used as dependent variable. Correlations were tested using Spearman's test. The software was Statistical Package for Social Sciences, v. 17.0, with a level of significance of 5%. Results: Pmb was 4.9% for the evaluated period. There was a negative correlation between indicator and the coverage of oral health teams in the family health strategy. Conclusion: The correlations analyzed were influenced by the organization and distribution of the professionals' workforce; revealing that the non-organization of the health care network may increase the performance of specialized procedures resulting from spontaneous demand due to the poor basic care coverage.

ABSTRACT

Objective: To analyze the indicators of planning and management actions for the work process organization in Centers of Dental Specialties (CEO) presented in the external evaluation tool to the Improving Access and Quality of CEO - AIQP-CEO Program and to provide a follow-up and monitoring tool of goals. Material and Methods: Crosssectional study with the use of secondary data from the external evaluation of 930 CEOs in Brazil. A descriptive analyses of indicators identified in the "Planning and managing actions for work process organization in CEO" sub-dimension was performed. It provides two monitoring tools: monthly production for each specialty, and monthly minimal and mandatory performance of CEO goals. Results: It was shown that 85.4% of CEO teams have made the monitoring of the goals established to each offered specialty, and 73.1% have performed self-assessment in the last six months, in which most of the teams (647 - 69.6%) have used the Self-Assessment to the Improving Access and Quality Program - SAIQP. It was demonstrated that of the 680 teams that performed selfassessment, 612 (65.8%) consider the results in the teamwork organization. Conclusion: The PMAQ CEO external evaluation brought important information to the qualification process of health services. Concerning the planning, the majority of teams performed the follow-up of goals and self-assessment, and they used the self-assessment results in the teamwork organization. According to results, some tools should be used to support CEO teams in the follow-up of the monthly production by specialty and in the monitoring of goals.

ABSTRACT

Objective: To analyze the offer of dental prosthesis by Centers of Dental Specialties (CEO) considering the need by individuals aged 65-74 years in state capitals and other regions of the country. Material and Methods: The study was conducted with data from the external evaluation of the Improving Access and Quality Program (AVE/PMAQ CEO) and with data from the SBBRASIL 2010 project. AVE / PMAQ CEO is an evaluative investigation using a cross-sectional research design, performed in all CEOs of Brazil, totaling 932 services evaluated. The analysis of data and distribution of CEOs that offered dental prosthesis was described by maps, using TabWin (DATASUS) and quantitative description of the following variables: need for total and partial dentures, CEO, Regional Prosthodontic Laboratories (RLDP), average monthly number of delivered prostheses and the proportion of capitals with RLDP, number of CEOs, RLDP and prostheses delivered per 100,000 inhabitants in state capitals and other regions. Results: Of the 5,570 municipalities in the country, 780 have CEO, mainly located on municipalities with larger populations. Most CEOs were located in the northeastern (38.3%) and southeastern regions of Brazil (36.2%) with the northern and mid-western regions presenting the lowest absolute number of units. Low offer of prostheses was observed, considering the high need of dentures, as well as an unequal distribution among Brazilian regions. A high percentage of older adults aged 65-74 years require total (74.6%) or partial (99.8%) prosthetic rehabilitation, more critical situation is observed in the northern and northeastern regions. Conclusion: The provision of dental services in CEOs is still limited and unevenly distributed, especially for PPR, compromising the universality and integrality of oral health care.

ABSTRACT

Objective: To evaluate the different management aspects of Centers for Dental Specialties (CEO) in Brazil. Material and Methods: Quantitative study with analysis of secondary data. The results of external evaluation of the first PMAQ-CEO cycle were considered, especially those related to planning and self-assessment, demand organization, work process, human resources as well as the availability of supplies/materials/dental equipment. The selected data were analyzed based on the calculation of proportions using the Microsoft Office Excel and Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) programs. Results: The planning of actions in CEOs is conducted in nearly 80% of units, with the participation of dental surgeons, receiving support, mainly, from the local dental health or state public manager. The access to CEO is given, mostly, in a referenced or mixed (referenced and spontaneous) form. Only 49% of CEOs offer permanent education actions for workers. The work management process has been guided by quality standards of PMAQ-CEO for 77% of managers. Conclusion: The study allowed perceiving the presence of an often shared management, on the CEO organization, on self-evaluation process, planning, demand organization and work process, as well as human resources and infrastructure, showing conformity with the Oral Health National Policy guidelines. However, the results show that some problems with regard to the evaluation as work routine and management of access to CEOs still persist, pointing to the need for further studies and effort of managers to overcome them.

ABSTRACT

Objective: To evaluate the quality of Centers for Dental Specialties (CEO) using an electronic tool - the CEO webpage. Material and Methods: Evaluative research was carried out through the use of a web-based tool, which has two modules with forms for the evaluation of quality of CEO components to Managers and Professionals. The tool generates classification scores and recommendation letters according to the score obtained. Satisfactory classification was used for scores equal to or above 7.0 and unsatisfactory for scores lower than 7.0. Representatives of manager and professionals of CEOs who attended the invitation of the research were qualified to use the CEO webpage. Portal data were analyzed in a descriptive way and the average scores were tested according to service and context variables. Results: Thirty-eight health facilities were evaluated. The average score for CEOs was rated as satisfactory for both the Manager and Professional modules. However, when quality components were evaluated, there was higher concentration of unsatisfactory scores to those related to the work process, particularly to the quality components of Personnel Management; Social control and Financing; and, Organizational Criteria. Conclusion: The CEO webpage, for instantly generating evaluation and recommendations for change, is easy to handle and lacks minimal technological resources (computer with access to the internet network), has become a tool for information management that allows immediate decision making. In addition, they can make a major contribution to planning / management support in identifying critical aspects of the service that impair quality, with strong potential to serve as supplementary institutional support to PMAQ / CEO. Initiatives such as the CEO webpage should be encouraged and disseminated for use within Unified Health System.

ABSTRACT

Objective: To analyze the regulation of access to Centers for Dental Specialties (CEO) in the 1st cycle of Program for Improving Access and Quality of Centers for Dental Specialties (PMAQ-CEO), specifically the waiting time for the first consultation in association with socioeconomic and demographic factors of users and the characteristics of services. Material and Methods: The quantitative database of the 1st cycle PMAQCEO external evaluation was used, with question directed to the CEO user (Module III - 3.1 and 3.2), which sought to identify user characteristics and access to CEO. To obtain data, a field phase was carried out between months of February to June 2014 in 930 CEOs in all Brazilian states. Results: Users who obtained the first appointment within thirty days of waiting were those who had family incomes above 10 minimum wages; which showed higher schooling; appointment scheduling by telephone made directly to the CEO; and that the consultation was accomplished by "squeeze in" option. Conclusion: It was observed that aspects related to schooling, family income and primary health care coverage influence the waiting time to obtain the first consultation in CEO. There were several ways of referencing of users, and those who performed better were those who shared accountability for the appointments between service and user.
