This paper aims to analyze the processes developed in Brazil and Portugal intended to integrate the Primary Health Care and the Specialized Health Care. Primary Health Care conceived of as the first step for accessing to the health system stands out among the most usual initiatives and thus the family doctors are attributed a prevailing role. It is also emphasized the territorialization of the health services based on the geographic location, the referral to specialized doctors and the implementation of clinic protocols agreed between the parties. The main results indicate that in Brazil they implemented decentralized regulatory systems, and, in Portugal they created local health units (structures owned by the health ministry that integrate primary health care and specialized health care provided by the same management team). In conclusion, this work underlines the need to develop a true investment policy intended to strengthen the response capacity in the specialized health care and to add more value to the work performed by the primary care professionals. This way, they will strengthen the collaborative culture that will translate into successful integration processes with results such as good health and user's satisfaction. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Objective: To describe the health needs of men and the factors that motivate the practice of self-medication in a city in northeastern Brazil. Method: This is a descriptive, exploratory study with a qualitative approach, whose research field was a family health unit in a city in the interior of Bahia, Brazil. The study included men who performed the practice of selfmedication, from November 2015 to May 2016. For data collection, we used the semi-structured interview, organized and presented by the Collective Subject Discourse (CSD) method. Results: Considering the key expressions and the central ideas of the discourses, two distinct but complementary aspects emerged, the health needs and the motivations for self-medication that pervade issues involving men's conception of public health services. Dissatisfaction with the provision of care, lack of specific programs and easy access to medicines are the main factors that facilitate the practice of selfmedication. Conclusions: It is necessary to create mechanisms for strengthening and qualifying Primary Care regarding the importance of quality and comprehensiveness of care, so that men abandon the practice of self-medication and value health prevention.

Introduction: School health in Brazil is offered through the School Health Program. The purpose of this study was to identify the facilities and difficulties in implementing the Health at School Program in a municipality in the Northeast of Brazil. Materials and Methods: Descriptive, cross-sectional quantitative research conducted with 105 professionals from the Family Health Strategy who had already carried out activities of the program. Data was collected through an instrument with open and closed questions. We used open questions regarding the facilities and difficulties encountered in implementation of the Health Program in the School. Data were analyzed through descriptive statistics and presented in absolute and relative numbers. Results: The most frequent facilities are intersectoral articulation (38.1%) and professional satisfaction (24.8%) in performing the activities of the Health Program in the School. The difficulties were: shortage of material and financial resources (50.5%), lack of intersectoral articulation (26.7%), and excess of activities in the work process (17.1%). Discussion: A greater frequency of difficulties was observed in relation to the facilities and the results found show similarity and distance themselves from other studies of the area. Conclusions: The satisfaction of professionals and articulation between the health and education sectors are facilitating elements in implementing the Health at School Program. However, insufficient material and financial resources, as well as excess attributions in the work process are examples of factors that jeopardize its implementation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Objective: to identify nurses' social representations about the relationship among prostitution, health and the Family Health Strategy. Method: qualitative study supported by the Theory of Social Representations, carried out with 12 nurses from the Family Health Strategy. Data collection used the Free Words Association technique and structured interviews. The data were organized using an association of the lexical content and the Collective Subject Discourse, presented in a figure and tables, analyzed in a descriptive and interpretative way. Results: the social representations of the nurses influence the actions and behaviors offered insofar as they are restricted to the sexual and reproductive sphere, to the detriment of the contextual aspects of everyday life, work and health. Conclusion: nurses' social representations link sexual practices to the risk of catching sexually transmitted infections and lacks the articulation of health promotion and the principle of integrality.

Objective: analyze the search of men for Primary Health Care services and its relationship with the social construction of masculinities. Method: this is a descriptive study developed with ten men users of a Health Unit Family in a municipality of Bahia, Brazil. Data were collected by semi-structured interviews and the results were submitted to Content Analysis. Results: three categories emerged: late search for Primary Health Care services; the care and self-care as a female attribute and; virility, strength and honor – building masculinities in speeches. In speeches, the social constructions of masculinities reverberate in men’s search for health services. Conclusion: men tardily seek the services of Primary Health Care and consider care as a female attribute, which highlights the impact of social constructions of masculinity in this search.

It is concluded that these weaknesses could interfere in the adhesion to health policies related to TB preventive and control actions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In Latin America countries, programs and public policies aimed at indigenous health have impacted on new roles and border spaces. By addressing indigenous participation in primary healthcare, we analyze the tensions and negotiations before and after the implementation of the Indigenous Healthcare Subsystem in Brazil, providing as an example the indigenous land Kaingáng (TIK) located in the south of the country. Prior to the implementation of the Subsystem, the definition and execution of the services in this TIK were characterized by the strong presence of indigenous people linked to the indigenous political leader and the weak presence of institutions. Since 2000, the subsystem started covering various public and private segments. In the TIK, the role of a Kaingáng organization was full of ambiguities and paradoxes, because while it was an opportunity for getting a greater role in the negotiation spaces created by the State, it was also subject to the priorities defined in outer spaces to the ethnic group.

Objective: To identify the spatial pattern of low birth weight infants in the city of Taubaté, São Paulo, Southeast Brazil. Methods: Ecological and exploratory study, developed with the data acquired from the Health Department of Taubaté, regarding the period from January 1st 2006 and December 31st 2010. Birth certificates were used to obtain the data from infants weighing less than 2500g. A digital basis of census tracts was applied and the Global Moran index (IM) was estimated. Thematic maps were built for the distribution of low birth weight, health centers and tracts, according to the priority care (Moran map). The adopted statistical significance was a=5% and TerraView software conducted the spatial analysis. Results: There were 18,915 live births during the study period, with 1,817 low birth weight infants (9.6%). The low birth weight infants' prevalence during the period ranged from 9.3 to 9.8%. A total of 1,185 infants with known addresses, compatible with the digital base (65.2% of low birth weight infants), were included. The IM for low birth weight was 0.12, with p<0.01; regarding the health centers distribution, IM was -0.07, with p=0.01. The Moran map identified 11 census tracts with high priority for intervention by health managers, located in the outskirts of the city. Conclusions: The spatial analysis identified the low birth weight distribution by census tracts and the sectors with a high priority for intervention. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
