RESUMO

A mortalidade infantil é um indicador das condições de vida e de saúde de uma população, por expressar não somente causas biológicas, mas também determinações de ordem socioeconômica e ambiental e da saúde de mulheres e crianças, constituindo-se em um evento sentinela devido a sua evitabilidade. Sua redução depende da melhoria efetiva nas condições de vida e de políticas públicas de saúde. As falhas na atenção à gestante, ao parto e ao recémnascido são, particularmente, relevantes na ocorrência dos óbitos no primeiro ano de vida. Este estudo objetivou analisar a percepção dos gestores e profissionais de saúde acerca das causas e possíveis ações de enfrentamento da mortalidade infantil direcionadas à população maternoinfantil, executadas na Atenção Primária à Saúde do Município de Governador Valadares/MG. Metodologia: Trata-se de um estudo descritivo de abordagem qualitativa, utilizando como método o estudo de caso. A coleta de dados foi realizada através de 21 entrevistas semiestruturadas, teve como unidade de análise os profissionais e gestores de saúde responsáveis pela atenção à saúde da mulher e da criança da Secretaria Municipal de Saúde. Para análise dos dados foi utilizada a análise de conteúdo segundo Bardin (2011). Os dados foram organizados em 3 categorias e 2 subcategorias. Os resultados mostraram o pouco conhecimento dos gestores e profissionais de saúde sobre as taxas de mortalidade infantil do município, a incipiente presença de discussão do assunto na gestão e nas unidades de atenção primária à saúde e a necessidade de uma aproximação entre o comitê de prevenção da mortalidade materno, infantil e fetal com os profissionais da atenção primária em saúde. Conclui-se que na percepção de gestores e profissionais de saúde da atenção primária, o óbito infantil é um evento distante do cotidiano profissional, que desconhecem as taxas do município e suas principais causas, por isso a discussão sobre o assunto é tão frágil. Foi observado a não apropriação deste indicador como instrumento de gestão em saúde, mas todos reconhecem a importância do mesmo

Child mortality is an indicator of health and living conditions, as it expresses not only biological causes, but also socioeconomic and environmental determinations and the health of women and children, constituting a sentinel event due to its avoidability. Its reduction depends on the effective improvement in living conditions and public health policies. Failures in care for pregnant women, childbirth and newborns are particularly relevant in the occurrence of deaths in the first year of life. This study aimed to analyze the perception of managers and health professionals about the causes and possible actions to face child mortality directed at the maternal and child population performed in the Primary Health Care of Governador Valadares. Methodology: This is a descriptive study of qualitative approach, using the case study method. Data collection was performed through 21 semi-structured interviews. The unit of analysis was the health professionals and managers responsible for the health care of women and children of the Municipal Health Department. For data analysis was used de content analysis according to Bardin 2011. The data were organized into 3 categories and 2 subcategories. The results showed the lack of knowledge of managers and health professionals about the infant mortality rates of the municipality, the incipient presence of discussion of the subject in the management and primary health care units, the need for an approach between the prevention committee of maternal, child and fetal mortality with primary health care professionals. It is concluded that in the perception of managers and health professionals of primary care, child death is a distant event from professional daily life, unaware of the rates of the municipality and its main causes, so the discussion on the subject is so fragile. The non-appropriation of this indicator as a health management instrument was observed, but all recognize the importance of the indicator.

RESUMO

Introduction: Chronic kidney disease in children often determines poor nutritional status. Although renal transplantation (RTx) resolves endocrine and metabolic disorders, growth continues to be suboptimal and excessive weight gain may result in obesity. Objectives: Evaluating the development of height and body mass index in renal transplanted children and adolescents and identifying associated factors with final nutritional status. Methods: We reviewed the medical records of 17 patients with regular follow-ups up to 24 months after RTx. Nutritional status was assessed by height-for-age (H/A) and body mass index-for-age (BMI/A). It was considered catch-up growth the increase in z-score H/A ≥ 0.5 standard deviation. Multiple linear regression was used to estimate the influence of factors clinical and demographic variables on anthropometric indicators at 24 months after RTx. Results: Mean age was 9.1 ± 4.1 years old. Twenty-four months after RTx the mean z-score H/A increased from -2.66 ± 1.66 to -1.93 ± 1.08 (p ≤ 0.05), 47.0% of the patients showed catch-up growth and the same proportion showed z-score H/A < -2. Mean z-score BMI/A increased from -0.48 ± 1.03 at RTx to 0.80 ± 0.94 at third month after RTx (p < 0.001) and remained unchanged up to 24 months. The frequency of weight excess increased from 5.9% at RTx to 41.2% at 24 months. Age (r = -0.66; p = 0.006) and z-score H/A (r = -0.72; p = 0.002) at RTx were inversely associated with growth. Conclusion: Twenty-four months after transplant it was verified inadequate growth to recovery from stunting and excessive weight gain. RTx promoted greater growth in the youngest patients and most stunted at RTx.

Introdução: A doença renal crônica em crianças geralmente determina o comprometimento do estado nutricional. Embora o transplante renal (TxR) resolva os distúrbios endócrinos e metabólicos, o crescimento continua a ser inadequado e o ganho de peso excessivo pode resultar em obesidade. Objetivos: Avaliar a evolução da estatura e do índice de massa corporal de crianças e adolescentes transplantados renais e identificar fatores associados com o estado nutricional final. Método: Foram revisados os prontuários de 17 pacientes com seguimento regular até 24 meses após o (TxR). O estado nutricional foi avaliado por estatura para idade (E/I) e índice de massa corporal para idade (IMC/I). Foi considerado catch-up de crescimento o aumento no escore-z E/I ≥ 0,5 desvios-padrão. A análise de regressão linear múltipla foi utilizada para estimar a influência de variáveis clínicas e demográficas na variação dos indicadores antropométricos aos 24 meses após TxR. Resultados: A média de idade foi 9,1 ± 4,1 anos. Após 24 meses de TxR, a média de escore-z E/I aumentou de -2,66 ± 1,66 para -1,93 ± 1,08 (p ≤ 0,05), 47,0% dos pacientes apresentaram catch-up de crescimento e a mesma proporção apresentou escore-z E/I < -2. A média do escore-z IMC/I aumentou de -0,48 ± 1,03 no TxR para 0,80 ± 0,94 no terceiro mês após TxR (p < 0,001) e manteve-se estável até 24 meses. A frequência de excesso de peso aumentou de 5,9% no TxR para 41,2% aos 24 meses. A idade (r = -0,66; p = 0,006) e o escore-z E/I no TxR (r = -0,72; p = 0,002) foram inversamente associados ao crescimento. Conclusão: Após 24 meses de TxR verificou-se crescimento insuficiente para recuperação do déficit estatural e ganho ponderal excessivo. O TxR promoveu maior crescimento nos pacientes mais jovens e com maior déficit estatural no TxR.

RESUMO

OBJETIVO: A fibrose cística (FC) é uma doença hereditária, multissistêmica e crônica, para a qual é importante uma abordagem multidisciplinar. O objetivo deste estudo foi mostrar a evolução de um grupo de pacientes com FC após a implantação desse tipo de atendimento. MÉTODOS: Foram analisados retrospectivamente 19 pacientes (idades entre 6 e 29 anos) em acompanhamento clínico no Hospital das Clínicas da Faculdade de Medicina de Ribeirão Preto da Universidade de São Paulo, na cidade de Ribeirão Preto (SP). Os pacientes foram divididos em dois grupos: grupo 6-12 (6-12 anos) e grupo 13+ (> 12 anos). Dados referentes a índice de massa corporal (IMC), escore Z, escore de Shwachman (ES), número de exacerbações/ano, colonização crônica por Pseudomonas aeruginosa e medidas espirométricas (CVF, VEF1, VEF1 por cento e FEF25-75 por cento) foram obtidos. Os dados foram coletados em dois momentos (antes e após a implantação de atendimento multidisciplinar) e foram analisados com o teste dos postos sinalizados de Wilcoxon. RESULTADOS: A mediana de idade de início de sintomas foi de 10 meses. No grupo 6-12, houve somente um aumento significativo do IMC e da CVF. As outras medidas espirométricas aumentaram, mas não significativamente. No grupo 13+, não houve diferenças significativas entre os dois momentos, sendo que o ES apresentou uma diminuição com significância limítrofe. Houve diminuição não significativa das medidas espirométricas. Entretanto, o número de pacientes com volumes e fluxos alterados diminuiu nos dois grupos. CONCLUSÕES: Apesar do grupo pequeno, a manutenção dos parâmetros espirométricos pode significar estabilidade clínica e funcional. Os pacientes estudados mantiveram estabilidade clínica, funcional e nutricional durante o período, e a implantação de abordagem multidisciplinar pode ter contribuído nesse sentido.

OBJECTIVE: Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a chronic multisystemic hereditary disease for which a multidisciplinary approach must be taken. The objective of this study was to show the evolution of a group of patients with CF after the implementation of multidisciplinary treatment. METHODS: A retrospective study involving 19 patients (6-29 years of age) under clinical follow-up treatment at the University of São Paulo at Ribeirão Preto School of Medicine Hospital das Clínicas, located in the city of Ribeirão Preto, Brazil. The patients were divided into two groups: 6-12 (6-12 years of age) and 13+ (> 12 years of age). We collected data regarding body mass index (BMI), Z score, Shwachman score (SS), number of exacerbations/year, chronic colonization by Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and spirometric measurements (FVC, FEV1, FEV1 percent, and FEF25-75 percent). Data were collected at two different time points (before and after the implementation of the multidisciplinary treatment) and were analyzed with the Wilcoxon signed rank test. RESULTS: The median age at the onset of symptoms was 10 months. In the 6-12 group, only BMI and FVC increased significantly. Although the other spirometric values increased, the differences were not significant. In the 13+ group, there were no significant differences between the two time points. There was a borderline significant decrease in SS and less than significant decreases in the spirometric measurements. However, the number of patients with alterations in volumes and flows decreased in both groups. CONCLUSIONS: Although our patient sample was small, the lack of changes in the spirometric parameters might reflect clinical and functional stability. In all of the patients evaluated, clinical, functional, and nutritional parameters remained stable throughout the study period. The implementation of a multidisciplinary approach might have contributed to this result.
