Practices and knowledge of health personnel about transgenderity in Primary Health Care.

OBJECTIVE: To describe the practices and knowledge of Nursing Technicians and Community Health Agents of Primary Health Care for the transgender population. DESIGN: Descriptive research with a qualitative approach. SITE: The study was developed in a digital environment. PARTICIPANTS: 18 Community Health Agents and 12 Nursing Technicians who worked in Primary Health Care Units from several Brazilian states. METHOD: Sampling technique by chain indication or networks (snowball), data production by Google Forms form. The theoretical saturation technique was used to close the interviews. Categorical thematic content analysis with IRAMUTEQ software support. RESULTS: Professionals' lack of knowledge about policies and terms was evidenced; there were conceptual confusions, inadequate associations, and a restricted approach to the prevention of sexually transmitted infections. CONCLUSIONS: The lack of training reflects a cisnormative and binary approach, compromising the assistance to the transgender population. Disrespect for the social name persists, highlighting the need for permanent education for health professionals, aiming at an inclusive and respectful care practice.

Coordinated assistance plan for the elimination of hepatitis C virus at the centro de ayuda integral al drogodependiente (CAID (Comprehensive Care Centre for Drug Addicts)). / Plan asistencial coordinado para la eliminación del virus de la hepatitis C en el centro de ayuda integral al drogodependiente (CAID).

INTRODUCTION: The drug-injecting population has a high prevalence of hepatitis C virus (HCV) and high risk of transmission. It is a priority to establish an agile diagnostic and treatment plan. OBJECTIVES: 1) Assess the effectiveness of a new coordinated care plan of referral from the Comprehensive Care Centre for Drug Addicts (CAID) to specialised care and 2) Determine the prevalence of HCV, clinical characteristics, effectiveness and safety of treatment in this population. METHODS: 1,300 serologies requested by the CAID between 1998 and 2018 were retrospectively analysed, the seroprevalence of HCV was calculated and the efficiency of the traditional CAID-specialised care referral system was evaluated. A care plan was designed and coordinated among specialists involved in diagnosis and treatment. Since October 2018, 11 patients have been included in the new plan and the performance of both referral systems was compared. RESULTS: With the traditional system, 48.2% (83/172) of the patients were lost. 14.5% (172/1,300) presented positive HCV serology, compared to the general population OR = 19; 95% CI 14.3-25. The prevalence of active infection was 80.3% (90/112). The prevalence of active infection was 80.3% (90/112). Of the 11 patients referred by the new plan, 76.9% (8/11) had active infection and 100% (8/8) were treated with Direct Antiviral Agents successfully. CONCLUSIONS: The new coordinated CAID-specialised care plan presents high effectiveness in comparison with the traditional referral system. The seroprevalence and prevalence of active infection in the CAID population is very high. Treatments with Direct Antiviral Agents are effective and safe.

[Does the Electronic Health Record reflect the social determinants of health from Primary Health Care?] / ¿Refleja la historia clínica electrónica los determinantes sociales de la salud desde Atención Primaria?

OBJECTIVE: Analyze whether the use of Z codes in the Electronic Health Record (EHR) correlates with the socioeconomic reality of the population attended. DESIGN: Observational, descriptive, cross-sectional, ecological study. LOCATION: 90 health centres of two Primary Health Care (PHC) Departments of the Community of Madrid. PARTICIPANTS: The total number of patients treated during 2016: 1,920,124 (54.33% women, 45.67% men). The 7.15% received some Z code (67.29% women, 32.71% men). MAIN MEASUREMENTS: As a dependent variable, the proportion of patients with Z code records in their EHRs was established. As independent variable, two socioeconomic indicators were selected that objectively reflect the differences between Basic Health Areas: Average Income Available per capita and Proportion of Economic Immigrants. To evaluate the correlation between dependent and independent variables, a multivariate correlation-regression analysis was used. RESULTS: It was observed that the higher the disposable income, the lower the proportion of Z code records in the EHRs (Pearson correlation coefficient: -0.56). However, there is a great variability in the registration of Z codes and the coding fails to make visible the socio-economic realities of the populations covered (Diagnostic Odds Ratio: 0.12. CI: 0.05-0.32). CONCLUSIONS: The use of different tools that facilitate the visualization of the health impact of social inequalities, as well as their evaluation through various research methodologies, is relevant for a community orientation of the PHC. The Z codes do not make visible in the studied area the social determinants of health of the population attended.

[Case management as a methodology for connecting the health and social care systems in Spain]. / La gestión de casos como metodología para la conexión de los sistemas sanitario y social en España.

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this paper is to present the assessment of a case management project, implemented with chronic patients in Valencia, for the integration of health and social care. This project is linked with the 'Sustainable Socio-Health Model'. LOCATION: Health department 06 in Valencia. PARTICIPANTS: The target groups were chronic patients of 65 years and over. INTERVENTIONS: A non-randomized non-blinded comparative study with an intervention and control group. The intervention consisted in the creation of an interdisciplinary case management team, the use of a common portfolio of resources, and its application to a pilot sample with an intervention period of 6-9 months. MAIN MEASUREMENTS: Diseases (ICD-9), functional capacity, use of health and social resources, satisfaction, unit cost services. RESULTS: There was an increase in the combined use of health and social resources in the intervention group, which included social day centers (21.8% in the intervention group compared to 9.8% in the control group), in coordination with primary care (suggested as the only health resource in 55.4% of cases). There was a decrease in the number of medical visits in the intervention group (43.6% versus 74.5% in the control group). Increased patient satisfaction (55.5% in the intervention group compared to 29.4% in the control group) was observed. At least an extra 4.4% of patients were treated using hospital resources without increasing costs. CONCLUSIONS: Case management using a common unique portfolio of health and social resources can improve the coordination of resources, increases patient satisfaction and increases the capacity of using of hospital resources.

Preliminary assessment of antivenom availability and management in the public health system of Costa Rica: An analysis based on a survey to pharmacists in public health facilities.

Availability and accessibility of safe and effective antivenoms are key elements for the successful treatment of snakebite envenoming (SBE). This study provides a preliminary analysis on the way antivenoms are managed by the public health system in Costa Rica and on the role played by pharmacists in the overall management of antivenoms. This was an observational, cross-sectional study based on an online survey sent to pharmacists working at Caja Costarricense de Seguro Social (Costa Rican Social Security System; CCSS) in different locations in Costa Rica. Characteristics and location of health facilities, as well as antivenom availability and management details, were analyzed. Responses from a total of 96 pharmacists, corresponding to 55 different healthcare facilities, were included in this study. Most respondents worked at pharmacies located in urban communities (69.0%) and in the secondary level of care, which includes clinics, and regional and peripheral hospitals (55.2%). Overall, participants reported antivenom availability at all levels of care and in centers having various operating schedules, although they were not available in some facilities in regions where SBE is uncommon or do not attend SBE cases because of the proximity of more complex health centers. On average, the stocks of anticoral and polyvalent antivenoms per health facility were compatible with the dose of antivenom required for treating a SBE case. More than half of participants reported knowing the availability of protocols for the management of SBE and the correct use of antivenom at their healthcare facilities. Of the total respondents, 49% agreed on possessing all the resources needed for the correct management of these medicines at their facilities, and 65.6% indicated that they know the procedures for antivenom storage and management. Our findings provide a first description of the availability of antivenoms in the public health system of Costa Rica, including the primary care level. Results also underscore the perceived role of participating pharmacists in the management of these life-saving drugs and the need to improve their knowledge on this topic.

Definición de indicadores para una atención centrada en el paciente diabético tipo II. Estudio de consenso.

OBJECTIVE: Define a minimum set of indicators for person-focused-care applying for type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2), as a complementary metric to current clinical-healthcare indicators. METHODS: Qualitative consensus-building study (involving professionals and patients) structured in three stages: Metaplan to capture information, Delphi to agree on criteria and indicators, and consensus conference to ensure feasibility and relevance of the proposal. RESULTS: Consensus was reached on a total of nine indicators upon: shared decision-making, self-care, adherence, renal function screening, activities of daily living, individualized therapeutic plan, vascular risk assessment, working life and human treatment. These indicators were grouped into three dimensions: the person with oneself, the person with one's family, and the person with the health system. CONCLUSIONS: These indicators make it possible to establish alternative metrics to determine the degree of progress in a person-centered attention in case of DM2.

Hip fracture co-management in the elderly in a tertiary referral hospital: A cohorts study. / Comanejo de la fractura de cadera del anciano en un hospital de tercer nivel: un estudio de cohortes.

INTRODUCTION: Hip fracture in the elderly is one of the most prevalent diagnoses in Orthopedic Surgery Departments. It has a great impact in medical, economic and social terms. Our objective is to analyze clinical impact of a co-management care model between orthopedic surgery and internal medicine departments for elderly patients admitted with hip fracture in a tertiary referral hospital. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Retrospective cohort study of patients older than 65 years old admitted with hip fracture between January 2005-August 2006 (HIST cohort) without a co-management care model, and between January 2008-August 2010 (COFRAC cohort) with a co-manEdadment care model. Analysis of demographic, clinical and surgery characteristics, complications incidence and mortality and re-admissions at 30 days was made. RESULTS: A total of 701 patients were included (471 HIST, 230 COFRAC). There were no differences in sex, gender, time to surgery, type of anesthesia and surgery, length of stay, ambulation at discharge and 30-days emergency room consultation, readmissions or mortality at 30 days. There were differences in identification of polypatological patients (16.8 vs. 24.4%, P=0.02), presence of osteoporosis (3.9 vs. 7.6%, P=0.03), motor deficit (3.5 vs. 8.8%, P=0.03), number of chronic drugs (3.7±2.5 vs. 4.3±3.2, P<0.01), diagnosis of delirium (15.6 vs. 20.9%, P=0.048), constipation (80.3 vs. 74.7%, p<0.001), monitoring of anemia (83.3 vs. 97.1%, P>0.01) and renal failure at discharge (44.5 vs. 97.3%, P<0.01) and hospital mortality (4.6 vs. 1.3%, P=0.02). CONCLUSIONS: Co-management for elderly patients admitted with hip fracture provides a better information about previously chronic conditions, a higher control of hospital complications and decreases hospital mortality.

Advanced practice in case management: An essential element in the new complex chronicity care model. / Enfermería de Práctica Avanzada y gestión de casos: elementos imprescindibles en el nuevo modelo de atención a la cronicidad compleja en España.

The increased prevalence of complex chronic diseases in all stages of life, the progressive aging of the population, the prevalence of multimorbidity, polypharmacy, and loss of autonomy, have given rise to new needs in society. The current model of care is failing to meet these needs in an effective or sustainable way. People with complex chronic diseases are vulnerable, they deteriorate as diseases progress, and they require individualized and coordinated professional care that takes into account the progression of the disease, transitions and people's preferences. It is essential to determine a new care paradigm as a framework for the projects and actions that should be promoted to reach transversal, sustainable and quality care directed at people with complex and advanced chronic diseases in all stages of life. Different studies show that case management is an added value in terms of quality, safety and cost-effectiveness. However, its implementation in Spain is uneven and heterogeneous, and no regulations have yet been developed to give stability to this new nurse figure. The Ministry and the Autonomous Communities now have the responsibility to create regulations and institutionalize the figure of case management nurses/advanced practice nurses, with a clear definition of their professional competences and functions, as has been done in other countries.

Acolhimento da mulher migrante venezuelana na atenção básica: um ensaio teórico-reflexivo / Embracement of venezuelan migrant women in primary care: a theoretical-reflective essay / Acogida a la mujer migrante venezolana en la atención primaria: un ensayo teórico-reflexivo

Este ensaio emerge a partir de uma aposta científica que se propõe a produzir reflexões teorizadas sobre as práticas assistenciais de acolhimento produzidas pelos profissionais da saúde com mulheres migrantes venezuelanas na Atenção Básica. É um ensaio teórico-reflexivo. Salienta-se que, neste tipo de estudo, a produção de reflexões corre pela compreensão de um dado objeto sem que nele haja um sistema de compreensão rígido. As reflexões foram agrupadas em um núcleo teórico-reflexivo, intitulado: fundamentos para pensar o acolhimento à mulher migrante venezuelana na Atenção Básica. Nele, são encontrados conceitos e reflexões a respeito da Atenção Básica, migração, processos migratórios envolvendo mulheres venezuelanas e estratégias de acolhimento às suas necessidades em Unidades Básicas de Saúde. As (in)conclusões reflexivas para intensificar investigações perpassam por leituras do cotidiano no trabalho em saúde. Nesse sentido, é fundamental observar três rotas conceituais e reflexivas que fundamentalmente são necessárias para cuidar das migrantes venezuelanas de forma acolhedora na Atenção Básica ­ a saber: escuta qualificada, vínculo e clínica ampliada do sujeito ­ como forma de promover uma assistência alinhada aos princípios e diretrizes da política nacional de humanização.

This essay emerges from a scientific proposal to reflect on embracement care practices aimed at Venezuelan immigrant women in primary care. As a theoretical-reflective essay, the reflections produced on a given object disregard any rigid understanding system. Concepts and reflections on primary care, migration, migratory processes involving Venezuelan women, and embracement strategies were grouped into a theoretical-reflective nucleus entitled "foundations for discussing the embracement of Venezuelan immigrant women in primary care." Reflective (in)conclusions used to intensify investigations involve readings of everyday healthcare work. In this regard, three conceptual and reflective routes are essential to embrace Venezuelan immigrant women in in primary care­qualified listening, bond, and expanded clinical approach­to promote care aligned with the principles and guidelines of the national humanization policy.

Las reflexiones se agruparon en un núcleo teórico-reflexivo, titulado fundamentos para pensar en la acogida a la mujer migrante venezolana en la atención primaria. Se encuentran conceptos y reflexiones en torno a la atención primaria, migración, procesos migratorios que involucran a mujeres venezolanas y estrategias para acoger sus necesidades en unidades básicas de salud. Las (in)conclusiones reflexivas para intensificar las investigaciones pasan por lecturas de lo cotidiano en el trabajo en salud. En este sentido, es fundamental observar tres rutas conceptuales y reflexivas que fundamentalmente son necesarias para cuidar a la mujer migrante venezolana de forma acogedora en la atención primaria: escucha calificada, vínculo y clínica ampliada del sujeto; como forma de promover una asistencia alineada con los principios y directrices de la política nacional de humanización.

Cuidado ao idoso na atenção primária à saúde: percepções de enfermeiros / Eldery care in primary health care: nurses' perceptions / El cuidado del anciano en la atención primaria de salud: percepciones de los enfermeros

Objetivo: compreender as percepções de enfermeiros sobre o desenvolvimento do cuidado ao idoso, sobretudo em situação de multimorbidades, no contexto da Atenção Primária à Saúde. Métodos: estudo qualitativo, exploratório e descritivo, fundamentado no referencial teórico da Promoção da Saúde, com a participação de 10 enfermeiros da Atenção Primária à Saúde de Santa Catarina. A coleta de dados deu-se virtualmente, através de entrevista semiestruturada por chamada de vídeo no WhatsApp, devido ao momento pandêmico. Os dados foram analisados pela análise de conteúdo temática. Resultados: emergiram três categorias: Cuidado de Enfermagem ao idoso na Atenção Primária à Saúde; Possibilidades para promover a saúde do idoso na Atenção Primária à Saúde; e Assistência de Enfermagem ao idoso com multimorbidades. Conclusão: os enfermeiros atuam no cuidado ao idoso através de consultas, visitas domiciliares, educação em saúde, atividades em grupo e com ações preventivas e promotoras da saúde. Evidenciou-se a fragmentação do cuidado aos idosos com multimorbidades no uso de protocolos nomeados por doenças crônicas, que não abordam a integralidade, fazendo-se necessária esta construção, embora já sejam aplicadas estratégias para promover a assistência integral à população com esta condição. (AU)

Objective: to understand nurses' perceptions about the development of care for the elderly, especially in situations of multimorbidities, in the context of Primary Health Care. Methods: qualitative, exploratory and descriptive study, based on the theoretical framework of Health Promotion, with the participation of 10 nurses from Primary Health Care in Santa Catarina. Data collection took place virtually, through a semistructured interview by video call on WhatsApp, due to the pandemic moment. Data were analyzed by thematic content analysis. Results: three categories emerged: Nursing care for the elderly in Primary Health Care; Possibilities to promote the health of the elderly in Primary Health Care; and Nursing Care for the Elderly with Multimorbidities. Conclusion: nurses work in the care of the elderly through consultations, home visits, health education, group activities and preventive and health-promoting actions. The fragmentation of care for the elderly with multimorbidities was evidenced in the use of protocols named for chronic diseases, which do not address comprehensiveness, making this construction necessary, although strategies are already applied to promote comprehensive care for the population with this condition. (AU)

Metodos: estudio cualitativo, exploratorio y descriptivo, basado en el marco teórico de la Promoción de la Salud, con la participación de 10 enfermeros de la Atención Primaria de Salud de Santa Catarina. La recolección de datos se realizó de manera virtual, a través de una entrevista semiestructurada por videollamada por WhatsApp, debido al momento de la pandemia. Los datos fueron analizados por análisis de contenido temático. Resultados: surgieron tres categorías: Cuidado de enfermería al anciano en la Atención Primaria de Salud; Posibilidades de promoción de la salud del anciano en la Atención Primaria de Salud; y Atención de Enfermería al Anciano con Multimorbilidades. Conclusion: los enfermeros actúan en el cuidado del anciano a través de consultas, visitas domiciliarias, educación en salud, actividades grupales y acciones preventivas y promotoras de salud. La fragmentación de la atención al anciano con multimorbilidad se evidenció en el uso de protocolos denominados para enfermedades crónicas, que no abordan la integralidad, haciendo necesaria esa construcción, aunque ya se aplican estrategias para promover la atención integral a la población con esa condición.

Pessoas idosas que moram sozinhas: análise de demanda para os serviços sociais e saúde / Older adults living alone: demand analysis for social and health services / Personas ancianas que viven solas: análisis de la demanda de servicios sociales y de salud

Objetivo: Analisar as condições sociais, demográficas, econômicas, de vida e saúde, de apoio social e cuidado de pessoas idosas que moram sozinhas. Método: Estudo transversal com abordagem quantitativa por meio de uma entrevista com questionário semiestruturado com idosos. Utilizou-se uma análise univariada a partir do teste qui-quadrado, de análise de correspondência múltipla e de cluster pelo procedimento não hierárquico. Resultados: Foram encontrados quatro principais agrupamentos de pessoas idosas que moram só, sendo eles: o primeiro, dos mais longevos com comorbidades respiratórias e que precisam de ajuda regularmente; o segundo, de idosos sem apoio a que recorrer; o terceiro, composto por homens com mais apoio; e o quarto, de mulheres mais independentes de apoio e cuidado. Conclusão: Esse diagnóstico da situação de pessoas idosas que vivem sozinhas evidencia um impacto direto e indireto nos serviços sociais e de saúde, subsidiando reformulações e implantações de políticas públicas de apoio e cuidado

Objective: To analyze the social, demographic, economic, living, and health conditions, social support, and care of older adults who live alone. Method: Cross-sectional study with a quantitative approach using a semi-structured questionnaire interview with older adults. A univariate analysis was carried out with the chi-square test, multiple correspondence analysis and cluster analysis with a non-hierarchical procedure. Results: There was statistical significance among the variables sex (p=0.013), marital status (p<0.001), financial head of the household (p<0.001), contribution to family support (p=0.038), indebtedness (p=0.034), kidney disease (p=0.009), and all the social support and care variables (p≤0.05). Four groups were found in which longest-lived adults have comorbidities (pulmonary and respiratory disease) and need help regularly, older adults have no support, men have more support, and women are more independent of support and care. Conclusion: This diagnosis of the situation of older adults living alone supports the implementation of public support and care policies

Cuidado na Atenção Primária à Saúde às mulheres em situação de violência: estudo bibliométrico na Web of Science / Care in Primary Health Care for women in situation of violence: bibliometric study in the Web of Science / Cuidado en la Atención Primaria de Salud a mujeres em situación de violencia: estudio bibliométrico en la Web of Science

O estudo apresentado neste artigo objetivou descrever a produção científica entre 2012 e 2022 sobre o cuidado médico na Atenção Primária à Saúde a mulheres em situação de violência. Trata-se de um estudo bibliométrico e descritivo de abordagem quantitativa, a partir de publicações indexadas na base de dados Web of Science mediante o uso dos descritores "Violence Against Women", "Medical Care", "Primary Health Care". Diante do que foi analisado, é perceptível uma falta de priorização de estratégias de cuidados pelos serviços de saúde, apesar de uma produção científica consideravelmente importante, bem como uma falta de atuação de alguns nichos dos profissionais de saúde. O desenho metodológico permitiu um mapeamento do perfil dos estudos voltados para a temática, assim como a necessidade de estudos sobre intervenções multidisciplinares, em especial o cuidado médico, na Atenção Primária à Saúde, a mulheres em situação de violência.

The study presented in this article aimed to describe the scientific production between 2012 and 2022 on medical care in Primary Health Care for women in situations of violence. This is a bibliometric and descriptive study of quantitative approach, from publications indexed in the Web of Science database through the use of the follow descriptors: "Violence Against Women", "Medical Care", "Primary Health Care". In the light of what has been analyzed, it is visible a lack of prioritisation of care strategies by the health services, despite a considerably important scientific production, as well as a lack of action by certain niches of health professionals. The methodological design made it possible to map out the profile of studies on the subject, as well as the need for studies on multidisciplinary interventions, especially the medical care by health services in Primary Health Care for women in situations of violence.

Comunicação de más notícias em cuidados paliativos: estudo bibliométrico / Communication of bad news in palliative care: bibliometric study / Comunicación de malas noticias en cuidados paliativos: estudio bibliométrico

Os cuidados paliativos compreendem a melhora da qualidade de vida e o alívio dos sintomas de pacientes que enfrentam doenças que ameaçam a continuidade da vida e de seus familiares. Para tal, é necessário habilidade comunicativa, a fim de uma boa condução ao transmitir uma má notícia. Buscou-se compreender como se configura a produção científica nacional e internacional que aborda a comunicação de más notícias em cuidados paliativos. A pesquisa de revisão, de análise bibliométrica, analisou 25 artigos dos últimos cinco anos (entre 2016 e 2020) disponíveis na Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde (BVS/Bireme). Os resultados revelaram publicações de 134 autores em 16 periódicos de diferentes países. Parte dos estudos foi realizadacom profissionais de saúde em hospitais e apresentam abordagem quantitativa. A comunicação de más notícias ainda se mostra um desafio para profissionais, pacientes e familiares.
