          Abstract

          Resumo Objetivo: avaliar a longitudinalidade do cuidado na Atenção Primária à Saúde (APS) na perspectiva dos usuários, verificando a associação com o porte populacional, índice de desenvolvimento humano e cobertura de Estratégia Saúde da Família (ESF) entre os municípios de uma Regional de Saúde no Sul do Brasil. Método: estudo transversal, realizado com 1.076 usuários adultos da APS de 32 municípios da 4ᵃ Coordenadoria Regional de Saúde do Rio Grande do Sul, de fevereiro a junho de 2015. Os dados foram coletados com o instrumento Primary Care Assessment Tool versão adulto e analisados com o programa Statistical Package for the Social Sciences. Para a comparação de médias utilizou-se o teste Mann-Whitney e Kruskal Wallis. Resultados: o grau de afiliação foi avaliado com alto escore (8,6; IC95%:8,5-8,8) e a longitudinalidade obteve um escore insatisfatório (6,4; IC95%:6,3-6,5). As fragilidades relacionadas ao atributo foram a relação interpessoal entre o usuário e profissional; o reconhecimento do usuário em sua integralidade e o preparo dos profissionais para auxiliar os usuários. A longitudinalidade foi melhor avaliada nos municípios com menor porte populacional, menor índice de desenvolvimento humano e com maior cobertura de ESF. Conclusão: a longitudinalidade é insatisfatória e revela a necessidade de reorientação da APS e da formação profissional, contudo a maior cobertura da ESF sugere que esse modelo assistencial contribui para qualificar esse atributo.

          Resumen Objetivo: Analizar la longitudinalidad del cuidado en la Atención Primaria de Salud (APS) desde la perspectiva de los usuarios y verificar su relación con el tamaño de la población, índice de desarrollo humano y cobertura de la Estrategia Salud de la Familia (ESF) en los municipios de una Regional de Salud en el sur de Brasil. Método: Estudio transversal, realizado con 1076 usuarios adultos de la APS de 32 municipios de la 4ᵃ Coordinación Regional de Salud del estado de Rio Grande do Sul, de febrero a junio de 2015. Los datos fueron recolectados con la herramienta Primary Care Assessment Tool versión adulto y analizados con el programa Statistical Package for the Social Sciences. Para la comparación de promedios se utilizó la prueba Mann-Whitney y Kruskal Wallis. Resultados: El nivel de afiliación fue evaluado con alta puntuación (8,6; IC95%:8,5-8,8) y la longitudinalidad obtuvo una puntuación insatisfactoria (6,4; IC95%:6,3-6,5). Las debilidades relacionadas al atributo fueron la relación interpersonal entre el usuario y el profesional, el reconocimiento del usuario en su integralidad y la preparación de los profesionales para dar auxilio a los usuarios. La longitudinalidad fue mejor evaluada en los municipios con menor población, menor índice de desarrollo humano y mayor cobertura de la ESF. Conclusión: La longitudinalidad es insatisfactoria y revela la necesidad de reorientación de la APS y de la formación profesional. No obstante, la mayor cobertura de la ESF sugiere que ese modelo asistencial contribuye para cualificar ese atributo.

          Abstract Objective: research aims to evaluate the longitudinality of Primary Health Care (PHC) from the perspective of its users, verifying the association between the population size, Human Development Index (HDI) and Family Health Strategy (FHS) coverage among the municipalities of a Regional Health Coordination in the Southern region of Brazil. Method: cross-sectional study, conducted with 1,076 PHC adult users from 32 municipalities of the 4 Regional Health Coordination of Rio Grande do Sul, from February to June 2015. Data were collected with the Adult Primary Care Assessment Tool and analyzed with the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences software. The Mann-Whitney and Kruskal Wallis tests were used to compare the means. Results: the level of affiliation had a high score (8.6; CI95%: 8.5-8.8) and the longitudinality obtained an unsatisfactory score (6.4; CI95%: 6.3-6.5). The fragilities related to the attribute were the interpersonal relationship between users and professionals; the recognition of users in their comprehensiveness, and the preparation of professionals to assist users. Longitudinality was better evaluated in municipalities with lower population size, lower HDI and higher FHS coverage. Conclusion: longitudinality is unsatisfactory and reveals the need for reorienting PHC and conducting vocational training. However, the greater coverage of FHS suggests that this care model contributes to qualify this attribute.

            Children's health care assistance according to their families: a comparison between models of Primary Care

            OBJECTIVE To compare the health assistance models of Basic Traditional Units (UBS) with the Family Health Strategy (ESF) units for presence and extent of attributes of Primary Health Care (APS), specifically in the care of children. METHOD A cross-sectional study of a quantitative approach with families of children attended by the Public Health Service of Colombo, Paraná. The Primary Care Assessment Tool (PCA-Tool) was applied to parents of 482 children, 235 ESF units and 247 UBS units covering all primary care units of the municipality, between June and July 2012. The results were analyzed according to the PCA-Tool manual. RESULTS ESF units reached a borderline overall score for primary health care standards. However, they fared better in their attributes of Affiliation, Integration of care coordination, Comprehensiveness, Family Centeredness and Accessibility of use, while the attributes of Community Guidance/Orientation, Coordination of Information Systems, Longitudinality and Access attributes were rated as insufficient for APS. UBS units had low scores on all attributes. CONCLUSION The ESF units are closer to the principles of APS (Primary Health Care), but there is need to review actions of child care aimed at the attributes of APS in both care models, corroborating similar studies from other regions of Brazil.

              Did the Family Health Strategy have an impact on indicators of hospitalizations for stroke and heart failure? Longitudinal study in Brazil: 1998-2013

              Introduction The objective was to analyze whether socioeconomic factors related to the context and those related to the model of care—specifically the coverage of primary care by the Family Health Strategy (ESF)—had an impact on hospitalizations due to heart failure (HF) and stroke, in the State of São Paulo/Brazil between 1998 and 2013. Methods A longitudinal ecological study involving 645 municipalities was conducted in the state of São Paulo/Brazil from 1998 to 2013, using the Hospital Information System (SIH–DataSUS database). The hospitalizations for primary care sensitive conditions: Stroke and heart failure (HF) that correspond to the International Classification of Diseases (ICD 10): I50, I63 to I67; I69, G45 to G46 were analyzed longitudinally during the period indicated regarding the percentage of people covered by the Family Health Program (PSF) adjusted for confounders (population size, gross domestic product -GDP and human development index- HDI). Results There was a significant decrease in the number of hospitalizations for heart failure and stroke per 10000 (inhabitants) in the period (p <0.0001), with a significant relationship with increased proportion of ESF (p <0.0001), and this remained significant even when possible confounders (population size, GDP and HDI) were included in the model (p <0.0001). Conclusions GDP per capita was close to or higher than that if many European countries, which shows the relevance of the study. The health care model based on the Family Health Strategy positively impacted hospitalization indicators for heart failure and stroke, indicating that this model is effective in the prevention of primary care sensitive conditions.
