RESUMEN

The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence of burnout syndrome in higher education health professionals working in indigenous health in Brazil, and to identify associated factors. This is an observational, analytical, and cross-sectional study. Data collection was based on the application of a questionnaire (personal profile and MBI-HSS) and included 513 professionals. The prevalence of burnout was 65%. Greater likelihood of emotional exhaustion was observed among younger professionals, who had worked in indigenous health for longer time, in the care function and with lower level of tranquility when working during the pandemic. Lower likelihood of having low personal accomplishment at work was observed among older professionals, professionals who had worked in indigenous health for shorter time, who worked in clinical care during the pandemic and those with lower level of tranquility when working during the pandemic. Greater likelihood of depersonalization was found among married professionals, who worked in clinical care during the pandemic and those with lower level of tranquility when working during the pandemic. This study contributes with an important assessment of the existence of BS predictors in health professionals working in indigenous health.

O objetivo foi investigar a prevalência da síndrome de burnout (SB) em profissionais de nível superior atuantes na saúde indígena no Brasil e fatores associados. Trata-se de um estudo observacional, transversal e analítico. O questionário foi aplicado (perfil e MBI-HSS) a 513 profissionais. A presença da SB foi identificada em 65% dos profissionais. Foi verificada maior chance de exaustão emocional entre os profissionais mais novos, com mais tempo de atuação na saúde indígena, em função assistencial e com menor nível de tranquilidade ao trabalhar durante a pandemia. Mais chance de apresentar baixa realização pessoal no trabalho foi observada entre os profissionais mais velhos, com menos tempo de atuação na saúde indígena, que estavam em atendimento clínico durante a pandemia e que relataram menor nível de tranquilidade ao trabalhar durante a pandemia. Maior chance de despersonificação em profissionais casados, em atendimento clínico durante a pandemia e com menor nível de tranquilidade ao trabalhar durante a pandemia. O estudo contribui com uma importante avaliação da existência de preditores da SB nos profissionais atuantes na saúde indígena.

RESUMEN

Resumo Introdução Ações educativas são fundamentais para a produção do cuidado e fazem parte das atividades dos agentes comunitários de saúde (ACS). Objetivo Avaliar o conhecimento dos ACS sobre saúde bucal e fatores relacionados. Método Estudo transversal e quantitativo, com 481 ACS vinculados aos municípios da X Gerência de Saúde de Pernambuco. A coleta foi realizada em 2017 nas reuniões mensais, com questionário validado e autoadministrado. As associações foram testadas por regressão logística múltipla, estimando-se os odds ratio brutos com os intervalos de confiança de 95%. Resultados Participaram 72,9% (351) dos ACS, sendo a maioria do sexo feminino, com até 40 anos, ensino médio completo, renda de até 1 salário mínimo e com mais de 10 anos de trabalho. Observou-se que 23,6% afirmaram que a equipe realizava reuniões frequentes e 12% disseram que os dentistas realizavam capacitação. Para 68,1%, a experiência de vida era a fonte do conhecimento. Os ACS do sexo feminino e que não nominaram a fonte de seu conhecimento tinham 1,90 (IC95%: 1,10-3,28) e 3,59 (IC95%: 1,46-8,79) vezes mais chance, respectivamente, de apresentar menor conhecimento (p < 0,05). Conclusão O conhecimento foi satisfatório e influenciado negativamente pelo sexo e pela ausência de relato da fonte de aquisição de informações sobre saúde bucal.

Abstract Background Educational actions are fundamental to produce care, and are part of the activities of community-based health workers (CHWs). Objective Evaluate the knowledge of CHWs about oral health (OH) and associated factors. Method This is a cross-sectional, quantitative study. All 481 CHWs linked to the municipalities belonging the 10th Health Management Section of the state of Pernambuco, Brazil, were invited to participate in the study. Data collection was performed in 2017 during the monthly sectional meetings by means of a validated, self-administered questionnaire. The associations were tested by multiple logistic regression, estimating the crude odds ratio with 95% confidence intervals. Results 72.9% (351) of the CHWs participated in the study. They were mostly women, aged ≤40 years, with complete high school, monthly income of up to one Brazilian minimum wage, and with more than 10 years of work experience. 23.6% of the CHWs stated that the team frequently attended meetings, and 12.0% of them said that the dentists underwent training. As for the source of knowledge acquisition, 68.1% answered that it accrued from life experience. Female CHWs and those who did not mention the source of their knowledge about OH were 1.90 (95% CI: 1.10-3.28) and 3.59 (95% CI: 1.46-8.79) times more likely, respectively, to present a lower OH score (p<0.05). Conclusion The knowledge about OH of CHWs was satisfactory, but negatively influenced by gender and absence of report on the source of acquisition of OH information.

RESUMEN

ABSTRACT Objetive To evaluate whether the area of study of undergraduate students influences oral health knowledge, attitudes and practices, in addition to the use of dental services, self-reported oral morbidity, self-perception and impacts of oral health. Methods A cross-sectional study was performed, with a probabilistic sample of 681 students from the second semester of a Higher Education Institution, who were allocated into Health (H; n = 347) and Non-Health (NH; n = 334) groups, and answered a questionnaire encompassing their sociodemographic profile and aspects of oral health. Data were analyzed by Fisher's Chi-Square/Exact Test (α = 5%). Results The majority of students were female (H = 70.0%, NH = 56.9%, p = 0.0004), single (H = 82.7%, NH = 76.0%, p = 0.0429) and did not work (H = 30.5%, NH = 37.7%, p = 0.0482). The groups differed in terms of receiving oral health guidelines from the media (H = 19.9%, NH = 13.8%, p = 0.0333) or from other health professionals (H = 25.6%, NH = 13.2%, p <0.0001). Regarding the reasons for their most recent dental appointment, in the Health group "treatment" (42.9%) and "pain" (6.9%) prevailed, while for the Non-Health group "review, prevention or check-up" (41, 9%) and "extraction" (8.1%) (p = 0.0169) were the most prevalent. The Health group was more satisfied with their oral health, with less frequent reports of a self-perception of bad breath (H = 30.3%, NH = 38.3%, p = 0.0483). There was no association between self-perception and impacts on oral health (p> 0.05). Conclusions The groups differed regarding the source of information on oral health, the reason for seeking and type of treatment, and the self-perception of bad breath, with the Health group reporting greater satisfaction with their oral health.

O grupo S mostrou-se mais satisfeito em relação à saúde bucal, com menor frequência de relatos sobre autopercepção de mau hálito (S=30,3%; NS=38,3%; p=0,0483). Não houve associação da autopercepção e impactos em saúde bucal (p>0,05). Conclusão Os grupos diferiram quanto à fonte de informações sobre saúde bucal, razão da busca e tipo de tratamento, e autopercepção de mau hálito, com o grupo Saúde referindo maior satisfação com sua saúde bucal.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVES: The consumption of food with a high-sugar content is encouraged by the food industry through television (TV) aimed at children and may be associated with dental caries. This study aims to evaluate the influence of TV on the food habits of schoolchildren aged years and its association with dental caries. MATERIAL AND METHODS: This was an observational, epidemiological, and cross-sectional study. Five neighborhoods of Belem District were selected, and then two schools from each neighborhood were drawn (one private and one public). All sixth and seventh grade students were selected. Data were extracted from questionnaires completed by schoolchildren and their parents and the decayed, missing, and filled teeth (DMFT/dmft) indices of the schoolchildren. The indices were carried out by three examiners previously calibrated (κ > .80). Logistic regression analysis was performed to investigate the association of variables of study with consumption of cariogenic foods and occurrence of dental caries. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated. RESULTS: Schoolchildren who watched TV for >90 min were more likely to consume cariogenic foods (OR = 2.38; 95% CI [1.57, 3.60]) and have a DMFT + dmft >1 (OR = 2.10; 95% CI [1.37, 3.26]). Those who consumed cariogenic foods while watching TV were more likely to have DMFT + dmft >1 (OR = 14.75; 95% CI [8.24, 6.40]). Parents who bought foods they saw on TV contributed to a higher consumption of cariogenic foods (OR = 3.29; 95% CI [2.07, 5.24]) and DMFT + dmft >1 (OR = 3.93; 95% CI [2.09, 7.37]) among their children. CONCLUSIONS: TV can influence the eating habits of schoolchildren aged 10 to 12 and the food purchases of their parents, stimulating the consumption of cariogenic foods and contributing to the development of dental caries.

RESUMEN

Abstract Objective: To make an association between self-perception and the implementation of sociodemographic variables for the autonomous and / or partially dependent individuals in nursing homes. Material and Methods: Epidemiological, observational and cross-sectional study. The sample consisted of 208 institutionalized elderly, both sexes, 60 years old or older, independent or partially dependent, randomly selected from two long-term residential institutions. Subjective evaluation: self-perception questionnaire, Geriatric Oral Health Assessment Index, quality of life assessment, Oral Impacts on Daily Performance (OIDP), oral health self-assessment (OH) and the need for dental prostheses. Bivariate analysis, chi-square test and multiple logistic regression were used, with the variables with p<0.05 remaining in the model. Results: Men were edentulous (53.43%), 68.75% used some type of denture, and 64.91% required dental prostheses, 60.58% self-assessed (OH) as good / excellent; who reported a need for dental prostheses presented 6.7 times (95% CI: 3.2-14.3) and more likely to have an impact on OIDP, those who needed prosthetics had a 2.8 times chance (95% CI: 1.3-6.1) (p<0.0001). The self-reported need for prostheses was associated with prevalence severity of impacts on QoL, eating, pronounce words correctly, Smile without feeling embarrassed; and the main reasons for not having badly adjusted teeth / dentures. Conclusion: The institutionalized elderly self-perceive the need for dental prostheses, but it does not have a negative impact on quality of life.

RESUMEN

Estudo observacional transversal para avaliar a percepção do cirurgião-dentista do serviço público sobre a importância do estágio em serviço na formação de acadêmicos de odontologia. Aplicou-se questionário estruturado, autoadministrado e validado a todos os 38 cirurgiões-dentistas que atuavam nas Unidades Básicas de Saúde de Umuarama (Paraná) no ano de 2016. A taxa de resposta foi de 86,8% (33). Todos relataram que o estágio agrega conhecimentos e benefícios aos alunos. Verificou-se que 66,6% (22) dos profissionais não conheciam o significado da preceptoria na Odontologia, em contraponto 69,7% (23) referiram que o preceptor colabora na formação do aluno, contribuindo com a troca de conhecimentos e experiências clínicas. Apenas 3,0% (1) atua como preceptor, 33,3% (11) aceitariam a função e 45,5% (15) não aceitariam devido ao aumento de trabalho e inexistência de incentivo financeiro. Já exerceram a função 27,3% (9), porém se afastaram por falta de comprometimento do aluno, inadequação das UBS, aumento na função de trabalho e falta de incentivo financeiro. Embora reconheçam a importância do estágio, a maioria dos dentistas conhece parcialmente o conceito e responsabilidades da preceptoria e não se sentem incentivados para exercer tal função.

Observational cross-section study to evaluate the perception of the dentist surgeon of the public service on the importance of the internship in service in the formation of dentistry scholars. Structured questionnaire was applied, self-administered and validated to all 38 dental surgeons who performed in the basic health units of Umuarama (Paraná) in the year 2016. The response rate was 86.8% (33). They all reported that the internship adds knowledge and benefits to students. It was found that 66.6% (22) of the professionals did not know the meaning of the preceptor in dentistry, in counterpoint 69.7% (23) mentioned that the tutor collaborates in the formation of the student, contributing to the exchange of knowledge and clinical experiences. Only 3.0% (1) acts as preceptor, 33.3% (11) would accept the function and 45.5% (15) would not accept due to increased work and lack of financial incentive. They have already exercised the function 27.3% (9), but have moved away due to lack of commitment of the student, inadequacy of UBS, more work and little financial incentive. Although they recognize the importance of the internship, most know partially the concept and responsibilities of the preceptor and do not feel encouraged to exercise such a function.

RESUMEN

RESUMO Objetivou-se avaliar a satisfação de usuários assistidos em Centros Regionais de Especialidades Odontológicas (CEO-R) do Ceará, Brasil. Estudo analítico descritivo transversal. Foram entrevistados 518 usuários, baseado no número de atendimento por dia (136), utilizando-se como instrumento de pesquisa o Questionário de Avaliação da Qualidade dos Serviços de Saúde Bucal (QASSaB). Os dados foram analisados pelo teste Qui-quadrado de Pearson, comparando os resultados entre os CEO. Prevaleceram: sexo feminino (67,8%), baixa escolaridade (67,8%) e renda (63,9%). Em relação à acessibilidade, apenas o tempo de espera na recepção (83,5%) foi considerado positivo, com destaque desfavorável à especialidade ortodontia no tempo para obter uma vaga. As demais dimensões analisadas tiveram avaliação positiva pelo estudo. Relacionando-se as unidades de serviço pesquisadas, houve diferenças estatisticamente significantes (p<0,05) na satisfação dos usuários para a maioria das dimensões analisadas, com exceção do 'auxílio de terceiros' e da 'resolutividade/ satisfação com o tratamento odontológico' (p>0,05). Concluiu-se que o nível de satisfação dos usuários participantes foi positivo, sendo a acessibilidade um problema impactante no sistema, devendo ser repensada no intuito de diminuir as eventuais insatisfações dos usuários.

In those establishments, 518 users were interviewed, using the Oral Health Services Quality Assessment Questionnaire (QASSaB) as a research tool. The data collected were analyzed by Pearson's Chi-square test. Prevalence: female (67.8%), low schooling (67.8%) and income (63.9%). Regarding accessibility issues, only the waiting time at reception (83.5%) was considered positive, with unfavorable highlight to the specialty orthodontics in the time to obtain a vacancy. The other dimensions analyzed were positively evaluated by the study. Relating the service units surveyed, there were statistically significant differences (p<0.05) in the satisfaction of users for most of the dimensions analyzed, except for the 'third-party aid' questionnaire and the 'resolution / satisfaction' with dental treatment (p>0.05). It was concluded that the level of satisfaction of the users participating in the research was generally positive, with accessibility being an impacting problem in the system, which should be rethought in order to reduce any dissatisfaction among users who require the specialized dental service of the regional network health care.

RESUMEN

Avaliou-se o quantitativo inerente à cobertura assistencial médica, básica e especializada do município de Caratinga-MG, no período de setembro de 2014 a agosto de 2015. Estudo observacional transversal. Os elementos referenciados foram avaliados por meio de dados secundários do sistema de informação ambulatorial SIA/SUS, referente às 23 equipes da Estratégia Saúde da Família, agregados no seguinte perfil de pacientes: menores de 01 ano, 01 a 04, 05 a 14, 15 a 44, 45 a 59 anos e de 60 anos ou mais. Posteriormente foram avaliados os encaminhamentos aos atendimentos especializados, sendo submetidos a uma análise de parâmetros, de acordo com a Portaria 1101/02 do Ministério da Saúde. Os dados foram calculados através das frequências absolutas e relativas, média e desvio-padrão. Na avaliação para a média e desvio-padrão os resultados apontaram para um superávit nas consultas médicas básicas para os pacientes acima de 60 anos (m=905,4 e dp=347,4), e um déficit no cumprimento dos parâmetros nas consultas médicas básicas das demais faixas etárias: menores de 01 ano (m=101,4 e dp=50,4), 01 a 04 anos (m=191,4 e dp=54,3), 05 a 14 anos (m=375,8 e dp=93,7) e 15 a 59 anos (m=2.200 e dp=533,7). Os encaminhamentos aos atendimentos especializados também apresentaram déficit (m=380,2 e dp=234,2). A cobertura assistencial de consulta médica básica e de encaminhamento ao atendimento especializado no município de Caratinga-MG apresentou um percentual inferior aos parâmetros preconizados pelo Ministério da Saúde, com atendimento em apenas uma faixa etária.

RESUMEN

Objective: To evaluate the self-perception of adolescents regarding the need to undergo orthodontic treatment. Material and Methods: It was performed a cross-sectional study. The sample (n = 200) was composed of adolescents aged 11 to 18 years, of both sexes, divided into 2 groups (G1 ­ in treatment group, G2 - beginner group). A structured questionnaire was divided into three categories for data collection: teeth, face, and symptomatology. Considering the age group, data were tabulated and the first measures of central tendency and dispersion (mean, median, standard deviation, minimum value and maximum value), frequencies, and percentages for other variables were calculated. Student's t-test, Chi-square test, Fisher's exact were used to compare the groups for the age group and other variables at a 5% significance level. Results: The mean age was 15.47 (SD = 1.56) years, 59% of the individuals were women. The main reason for deciding to wear orthodontic appliances was due to necessity and malpositioned teeth (94.5%) and for other reasons (5.5%), with no significant difference between G1 and G2 groups (p>0.05); 20.5% wanted their front teeth to be longer/shorter, and 18.5% wanted their upper teeth to be moved forward/backward. There was no significant difference between the groups in the categories "what would you like to change in your appearance" and "pain and discomfort" (p<0.05). Conclusion: Esthetics related to dental positioning of the upper incisors greatly influenced motivation of the adolescents to seek orthodontic treatment. Skeletal anomalies and pain symptomatology had little influence on the adolescent perception.

RESUMEN

A diversificação das práticas pedagógicas visa o aprimoramento do processo de ensino. Novas metodologias, que favoreçam o interesse dos alunos e que proporcionem melhor compreensão, podem ser ferramentas importantes no processo ensino-aprendizagem. O objetivo desse estudo foi avaliar a percepção dos estudantes sobre o uso de macromodelos odontológicos, confeccionados com impressora 3D, como recurso complementar de ensino na disciplina Escultura Dentária, no curso de graduação em Odontologia da FACIPLAC. A amostra foi composta por 44 estudantes, matriculados no quinto período. Foram produzidos 44 conjuntos com quatro macromodelos, sendo um incisivo central, um canino, um primeiro pré-molar e um primeiro molar, todos superiores, confeccionados em material plástico colorido e resistente. Os conjuntos foram entregues aos estudantes no início de cada aula e utilizados para demonstração das estruturas anatômicas, visando à melhor fixação do conhecimento, sendo recolhidos posteriormente. Ao final do semestre letivo foi aplicado um questionário relativo ao aproveitamento do uso dos macromodelos, com resposta de 38 estudantes. Os resultados indicam que o uso dos macromodelos foi válido como recurso facilitador da compreensão da técnica de escultura dentária; contribuindo com o processo de aprendizagem em comparação ao uso de diapositivos; destacando as dificuldades no aprendizado; auxiliando na sedimentação dos conceitos das formas geométricas das estruturas dentárias. Os estudantes indicam seu uso, contudo consideram que não substitui a demonstração prática pelo docente (AU).

The diversification of pedagogical practices aimed at improving the teaching process. New methodologies, which favor the interests of tudents and to provide better understanding, can be important tools in the teaching and learning process. The aim of this study was to evaluate the perception of undergraduate dental students regarding the use of 3D-printed dental models as an additional resource for teaching dental sculpture at FACIPLAC. The sample consisted of 44 students enrolled in the fifth semester. A total of 44 sets were printed using four threedimensional models: maxillary central incisor, canine, first premolar and first molar, printed in plastic, resistant and colorful material. The sets were delivered to students at the beginning of each class and used to demonstrate the anatomical structures, collected at the end of the class, for improved memorization of knowledge. A questionnaire was applied regarding the use of the 3D models at the end of the school semester, and 38 answers were obtained. The research results indicated that the use of 3D models was a valid resource for facilitating technical understanding of dental sculpture; improved the learning process when compared to the use of slideshows; identified areas of greater difficulty in learning; contributed to the memorization of concepts and geometric shapes of tooth structures. Although students approved the use of 3D models, they did not replace practical demonstration (AU).

RESUMEN

O objetivo da pesquisa foi comparar escores de ansiedade perante o tratamento odontológico entre crianças e acompanhantes. Amostra de 44 crianças atendidas na clínica de Odontopediatria da Faculdade São Leopoldo Mandic, de ambos os sexos, idades de 4 a 11 anos. Utilizou-se a Escala de Ansiedade Visual (FIS) para crianças, identificando a ansiedade inicial e final por meio de 5 carinhas variando de muito feliz a muito triste, avaliada na primeira e na última consulta, e o questionário com a Escala de Ansiedade Dental de Corah's (DAS) para os responsáveis composto por 4 questões fechadas. Realizou-se análise descritiva por meio de tabelas de distribuição de frequências, cálculos da média, desvio padrão, mediana, valor mínimo e máximo, análise de correlação de Sperman entre escores total e de cada questão da escala de ansiedade (DAS) dos pais e o FIS dos pacientes. A comparação entre escores do FIS dos pacientes na primeira e última consulta foi realizada pelo teste de Wilcoxon, considerando-se o nível de significância de 5%. Foram classificados como não ansiosos 4,5% dos pais e 31,8% com exacerbado grau de ansiedade. Não houve correlação significativa (p>0,05) no estado de ansiedade das crianças e ansiedade de seus pais. Houve diminuição significante (p<0,05) no escore médio do FIS referente à ansiedade da criança na última consulta. Conclui-se que a ansiedade dos pais não interferiu no comportamento da criança no tratamento odontológico, e que uma boa comunicação e a proximidade entre dentista e paciente são importantes para diminuir o grau de ansiedade durante o tratamento.

The aim of this research was to compare grades of anxiety in front of dental treatment among children and companion relatives. Sample of 44 children attended on the Pediatric Dentistry Clinic of Faculty São Leopoldo Mandic, both genders with age among 4 and 11 years old. During this data collection we have been applied the Facial Image Scale (FIS) for children in order to identify the inicial ansiety of child, by application of 5 little faces with variation from very sad until very happy. This collection was applied on the first and the last dental care for the child. Regarding the relatives and responsible we have been applied a questionary with Dental Anxiety Scale of Corah´s (DAS) including 4 closed questions. Conducted a descriptive analysis by application of Frequency Distribution Tables, mean calculation, standard deviation, median, minimum and maximum value, Spearman correlation analysis between total scores and each answer of the Dental anxiety scale (DAS ) of the companions and the children's FIS. The relation betwen patient's first and last FIS score was performed by the Wilcoxon test, with significance level of 5%. Classified as not anxious 4.5% of parents and 31.8% with excessive degree of anxiety. There was no significant correlation (p> 0.05) in the children's state of anxiety and anxiety of their companions. There was a significant decrease (p <0.05) in the average FIES regarding the child anxiety in the last visit. The anxiety of the parents did not influence the behavior of the child in the dental treatment, and good communication and proximity between dentist and patient is important to reduce the level of anxiety during treatment.

RESUMEN

Introduction: The overvaluation of thinness as a standard of beauty has contributed to the development of eating disorders and has mainly affected adolescents and young adults. Objective: To evaluate the prevalence of risk behaviors for eating disorders and their association with dental erosion in adolescents. Material and method: This is a cross-sectional observational epidemiological study. The sample consisted of 278 adolescents aged 12 to 19 years, enrolled in a State School in Campinas - SP. Two questionnaires were used for the data collection on eating disorders: Bulimic Investigatory Test of Edinburgh and Eating Attitudes Test -26. The presence of erosion was evaluated by calibrated examiners. Result:The mean age of the sample was 14.8 years. The prevalence of mean risk for bulimia in the sample was 43.2% (95% CI: 37.3%-49.0%) and the prevalence of adolescents with a probability of developing bulimia was 53.2% (95% CI: 47.4%-59.1%). Of the total, 11.9% (95% CI: 8.1%-15.7%) showed results suggestive of anorexia. Among women, 66.9% were classified as probability developing bulimia, whereas in men the prevalence was 39.0%. As for dental erosion, only 1.1% of the sample presented erosion. Conclusion: The study pointed to large number of adolescents with risk behaviors for eating disorders but no association was found with dental erosion due to low prevalence.

RESUMEN

Objective: To evaluate the influence of Coca-Cola® consumption on the salivary pH of 12-year old children. Material and Methods: The convenience sample was composed of forty-five 12-year old students of both genders from public schools of Itatiba, state of São Paulo, Brazil. Salivary pH was measured with pH colorimetric tape indicator (Merck). The reading of the colorimetric method was made by an experienced evaluator under uniform lighting conditions. The colorimetric tape was positioned in the back of the student's tongue, which remained with the mouth shut for 30 Seconds. For control, the first measurement (T0) was performed before the intake of the soft drink (baseline pH). Subsequently, students were instructed to slowly drink 100 ml of Coca-Cola® using a plastic disposable cup. Immediately after ingestion, the pH was measured again with the colorimetric tape (t1). The oral pH values were also measured 5 minutes (t2), 10 minutes (t3) and 15 minutes (t4) after the soft drink intake, keeping the tape positioning always the same in all measurements. The statistical SAS software was used for data analysis. Comparisons of oral pH values at different times were performed by the Tukey-Kramer test adopting 5% significance level. Results: Immediately after soft drink intake, the salivary pH significantly decreased (pH = 6.26) (p <0.05) compared to baseline (pH = 7.23) (p <0.05). Fifteen minutes after ingestion, although an increase in the pH was observed (pH = 6.64), it had not yet returned to baseline (T0) (p <0.05). Conclusion: Coca-Cola® intake caused a significant reduction in salivary pH, without, however, reaching critical pH for enamel demineralization.

RESUMEN

Este estudo teve por objetivo avaliar, por meio de uma revisão da literatura, a adesão medicamentosa de pacientes com Hipertensão Arterial Sistêmica (HAS). Foram selecionados artigos nas bases de dados: Biblioteca Científica Eletrônica Online (ScientificElectronic Library Online - SciELO), Google Acadêmico e Centro Latino-americano e do Caribe de Informação em Ciências da Saúde (BIREME). Na busca foram excluídos os artigos que não apresentavam o conteúdo sob o ponto de vista da falta de adesão à terapia medicamentosa da HAS. Foram observados, na pesquisa, fatores relacionados: a) ao paciente e à doença: socioeconômicos, cronicidade, assintomatologia e sensação de ?cura? da doença; b) ao tratamento: a complexidade do esquema terapêutico, efeitos colaterais, alto custo dos medicamentos e interrupção e receio das medidas prescritas; c) aos serviços de saúde: profissionais, a organização e fortalecimento do tipo de política de saúde para a resolutividade dos problemas, estrutura dos serviços de saúde, a educação permanente e atenção prioritária à comunicação médico-paciente-equipe de saúde. O apoio social e da família, assim como o envolvimento do cuidador no processo de tratamento para o hipertenso, também foram relatados nos artigos. A falta de adesão ao tratamento medicamentoso da terapia da hipertensão arterial é uma condição multifatorial e não deve ser creditada apenas ao paciente. Fatores ligados à própria doença, ao tratamento e aos serviços de saúde, incluindo seus profissionais, interferem na forma como essa adesão ocorre

This study aimed to describe and analyze what reasons lead the patient not adhering to Hypertension drug therapy. As this study is a literature review, articles were surveyed by active search for information in databases. It was observed that the articles presented main points related to: a) patient and disease factors, such as socioeconomic factors, education level, gender, ethnicity and age, as well as chronic, no symptomatology, and sense of disease ?cure?; b) treatment, such as complexity of therapeutic regimen, side effects and the high cost of medicines, as well as disruption and fear the prescribed measures; c) health services, including their employees, which pointed out the organization and strengthening of the type of health policy for solving the problems, the best structure of health services, continuing education of employees and priority attention to medical communication / patient / health team. The social and family support, as well as the caregiver?s involvement in the process of treatment for hypertension have also been reported in the articles. The lack of adherence to drug treatment of high blood pressure therapy is a multifactorial condition and should not be credited only to the patient. Factors linked to the disease, treatment and health services, including their professionals, interfere in how this adhesion occurs
