    (2017) AOKI, Marta; BATISTA, Marina Picazzio Perez; ALMEIDA, Maria Helena Morgani de; MOLINI-AVEJONAS, Daniela Regina; OLIVER, Fatima Correa
    Introduction: Health Care Networks (HCN) are seen as a possibility for articulating and coordinating actions, health services and is a priority in the health system. One strategy to assure their improvement is the Tutorial Education Program (PET-Redes) in the health area. Within this context, it is important to understand the challenges and strengths for the effectiveness of HCN to the network care. Objective: To identify and analyze the perceptions of professionals who are preceptors of PET-Networks (Stork/at-risk infants Network and Disabled People Network) about the configuration of the network care and the challenges of professional actions related to it. Method: Qualitative study conducted through two focus groups with professionals that are preceptors of the PET-Networks. Thematic analysis was used for data analysis. Results: Both networks presented the following categories related to the network care configuration: access, comprehensive health care and communication. For this care network configuration, some challenges mentioned include geographical and architectural barriers, lack of social support, lack of transportation, failure on care flow and discontinuities in the communicative process. To deal with these challenges, the following strategies were mentioned: implementation of electronic medical records and formulation of specific forums for debate and articulation of actions, among others. It is important to notice that these categories are intertwined and that more challenges than strategies to overcome them were pointed out by the participants. Conclusion: There are several challenges for effective HCN from different levels and the construction of strategies needs to be convened among all persons involved in the HCN.

    The integral care of people with disabilities is weakened by the non-organization and systematization of information. The objective of this study was to organize and systematize data of people with disabilities accompanied in municipal health services in the context of primary and mild complexity care, in Sao Paulo capital, concerning socio-demographic profile, access to professional care and aiding equipment and service accessibility. It also aimed to establish an association between sociodemographic aspects and types of disability. Qualitative, retrospective, exploratory, descriptive and documentary research were based on analyses of users' medical records and data from local health information systems. Information was collected on 166 people, 89 men (53.6%) and 83 (50%) adults between 19 and 59 years old; 44 (411%) users completed or did not complete elementary school. Of the 102 people who reported employment status, 38 (37.3%) were not working and among those who worked, 22 (41.5%) were men. Multiple disabilities (33.4%), physical disabilities (24.5%) and intellectual disabilities (21.6%) were recorded more often. A statistical association (p=0.005) was identified between age and type of disability, where physical disability was the most frequent among those between 6 and 14 years, and multiple disability was associated among the elderly. In primary care, users predominantly accessed doctors and nurses, and in mild complexity care, they contacted occupational therapists, physiotherapists and psychologists. Among the equipment, the use of wheelchairs prevailed. Architectural barriers were observed in services of mild complexity and there was a low offer of public transportation. There is a need to improve recording information, however it was possible to organize data on the part of people with disabilities, a fundamental action for networked care.

    Evaluation of at-risk infant care: comparison between models of primary health care
    (2019) SAMELLI, Alessandra Giannella; TOMAZELLI, Gislene Andrade; ALMEIDA, Maria Helena Morgani de; OLIVER, Fatima Correa; RONDON-MELO, Silmara; MOLINI-AVEJONAS, Daniela Regina
    OBJECTIVES: To analyze the health care network for at-risk infants in the western region of the city of sao Paulo, with the primary health care as coordinator, and to compare the presence and extension of attributes of primary health care in the services provided, according to the service management model (Family Health Strategy and traditional basic health units). METHODS: A survey was conducted with all at-risk infants born in the western region of Sao Paulo between 2013 and 2014. The children were then actively searched for a later application of the PCATool - child version. The total of 233 children were located in the territory; 113 guardians agreed to participate, and 81 composed the final sample. RESULTS: Regarding the results of PCATool for overall and essential scores, the units with Family Health Strategy were better evaluated by users, when compared with traditional basic health units, showing a statistically significant difference. However, these scores were low for both management models. Regarding attributes, the Family Health Strategy presented better performance compared with traditional basic health units for most of them, except for coordination of information systems. Of ten assessed attributes, seven reached values >= 6.6 for Family Health Strategy and two for the traditional basic health unit. CONCLUSIONS: Regardless of the type of management model, low overall and essential scores were found, indicating that guardians of at-risk infants rated some attributes as unsatisfactory, with emphasis on accessibility, integrality and family guidance. Such a performance may have negative consequences for the quality and integrality of these infants' health care.
