RESUMO: Introdução: A atenção primária é considerada como porta de entrada para os demais níveis de atenção ao cuidado, no entanto os homens buscam principalmente os serviços especializados ou de urgência sobretudo quando já se encontram com alguma afecção. Objetivo: Verificar como os usuários do sexo masculino avaliam o acesso de primeiro contato na atenção primária. Metodologia: Estudo transversal realizado em Campina Grande (PB), no período de outubro de 2016 a fevereiro de 2017, com 384 homens. Foram utilizados um formulário sociodemográfico e o Primary Care Assessment Tool (PCATool). Efetuaram-se os testes χ2, Fisher e razão de verossimilhança. Resultados: Verificou-se associação entre a utilização do serviço e a idade (p = 0,001), a renda (p = 0,036), o credo (p = 0,018) e o conhecimento da Política Nacional de Assistência Integral à Saúde do Homem (p = 0,007). Os componentes do acesso de primeiro contato (utilização e acessibilidade) obtiveram os escores 5,79 e 2,7, respectivamente, sendo esse atributo considerado pelos usuários como pouco orientado para atenção primária. A garantia da acessibilidade e do acolhimento na atenção primária é fundamental. O serviço deve se organizar para ter as capacidades de acolher e apresentar uma resposta positiva às demandas de saúde da população, além de ter resolutividade e disposição de vinculação do serviço com o usuário. Conclusão: Os usuários não percebem a atenção primária como porta de entrada do sistema de saúde, sendo necessários esforços para garantir o acesso de primeiro contato.

Objective: To assess the epidemiological profile of tuberculosis in Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais State, from 2002 to 2008. Methods: For descriptive epidemiological study, the data were obtained from the municipal National Health Surveillance System, after obtaining approval from the Research Ethics Committee at the City Health Department. Incidence coefficient, average rates and stratified data analysis with significance level of p ≤ 0.05 were calculated. Results: About 7.590 new tuberculosis cases were reported between 2002 and 2008. There was a slight reduction in the number of cases throughout the historical trend, with an average annual incidence rate of 46/100,000 inhabitants. The study also showed a male gender ratio of 1.84:1, a higher incidence coefficient in the age group between 40 and 59 years old (73/100,000) and a higher incidence of tuberculosis among people who only had primary education level. Pulmonary tuberculosis was the most prevalent form in every year of the study (p < 0,001). Among the cases reported with associated diseases, alcoholism was registered in 47.9% and AIDS in 34.5%. Between 2002 and 2008, there was an increasing trend of cases treated under Directly Observed Treatment, accounting for 29.5% in total. Cure percentage rate was below the expected result (67.3%) and non-adherence to treatment showed a high total percentage (17.9%). Conclusion: The results indicated that tuberculosis control actions need to be intensified with investments on professional training, systemic audits of the information system, improved integration between AIDS/tuberculosis programs and raising awareness of the disease with the goal of mobilizing the society.

Este estudo objetivou descrever as ações de controle da tuberculose no contexto de Equipes de Saúde da Família, segundo as dimensões "enfoque familiar" e "orientação para comunidade". Pesquisa avaliativa seccional, realizada em 2008, que envolveu 84 profissionais de saúde. Utilizou-se o instrumento Primary Care Assessment Tool, validado e adaptado para atenção à tuberculose no Brasil. Os entrevistados responderam as questões segundo possibilidades produzidas por escala intervalar tipo Likert, à qual foi atribuído um valor entre zero e cinco. Os dados foram inseridos no programa Statistical Package for the Social Sciences e analisados segundo freqüência e mediana. Na primeira dimensão avaliada, 67,9% dos profissionais de saúde investigam os contatos domiciliares dos casos de tuberculose; 63,1% realizam exame radiológico; 64,3% incluem a família no enfrentamento da doença; 77,4% identificam fatores de riscos; 41,7% envolvem outros setores na resolução dos problemas. Na segunda dimensão, 73,8% realizam busca de casos na comunidade; 40,5% dispõem de insumos para coleta de escarro; 50% desenvolvem trabalhos educativos e 14,3% reconhecem participação social no controle da tuberculose. A eficiência da utilização dos serviços exigirá a incorporação de ações que privilegiem a atenção à família e à comunidade, e o desenvolvimento de habilidades que ampliem os espaços de atuação dos profissionais e fortaleçam a articulação intersetorial.This study aimed to describe tuberculosis control actions in the context of Family Health Teams, regarding the dimensions family focus and community orientation. A cross-sectional evaluative research was carried out in 2008, with 84 healthcare workers. The Primary Care Assessment Tool was used, validated and adapted to assess tuberculosis care in Brazil. Respondents answered each question according to a pre-determined scale, (Likert's scale) ranging from zero to five. Data were tabulated using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences software and were analyzed according to frequency and median. In the first dimension, outcomes revealed that 67.9% of health workers evaluate contact cases with diagnostic tests; 63.1% use radiology tests; 64.3% include the household to face the disease; 77.4% identify risk factors; 41.7% interface with other sectors to find solutions for the identified problems. In the second dimension, 73.8% of them perform case search; 40.5% provide inputs for sputum collection; 50% take educational actions in the community; 14.3% recognize social participation in tuberculosis control. Therefore, the efficiency of such services requires taking actions that give special attention to family and community, and the development of skills to create new spaces for professionals to act and to strengthen the interface with other sectors of society.

A prática da amamentação sofreu um declínio em todo o mundo, levando a conseqüências desastrosas para a saúde das crianças e suas mães. A partir da década de 70 iniciou-se um verdadeiro movimento mundial para o retorno à amamentação, sendo que no Brasil, estudos realizados em algumas cidades indicam o possível sucesso deste movimento no País. Este estudo teve por objetivo descrever a trajetória recente do aleitamento materno no Brasil, em diferentes estratos populacionais, compa-rando duas pesquisas nacionais (ENDEF/75 e PNSN/89). Empregou-se a análise de probitos, que permite estimar freqüências da amamentação a partir de regressões lineares ponderadas, utilizando o teste de aderência de Kolmogorov-Smirnov para verificar a adequação dos modelos obtidos. Verificou-se uma expansão considerável da prática da amamentação no País. Esta tedência ocorreu em todos os estratos da população, porém o aumento da prática da amamentação foi mais acentuado na área urbana, na região Centro-Sul do país, entre as mulheres de maior poder aquisitivo e de maior escolaridade.Breast-feeding practices have declined all over the world, negatively affecting the health of children and mothers. Since the 70's, worldwide activities for reviving breast-feeding were developed, but there are no studies of this trend in Brazil with national representative data. The present study had the objective of describing recent trends of breast-feeding practices in Brazil, in different populational subgroups, by comparing two national surveys carried out in 1975 e 1989. Probit analysis was used to estimate the prevalences of breast-feeding, by linear regression, using the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test to verify the adequacy of the obtained models. Breast-feeding practices considerably increased in Brazil, specially in the urban area, among women of the central-southern regions of the country, with higher per capita family income, and more years of schooling.
