RESUMO

Objetivo: Identificar as condições de saúde bucal, o acesso aos serviços odontológicos e analisar o cuidado em saúde bucal ofertado aos pacientes oncológicos pediátricos assistidos no Hospital Napoleão Laureano, em João Pessoa/PB. Materiais e Métodos: Procedeu-se um estudo transversal, cuja coleta de dados se deu mediante exame clínico, uso de questionário e realização de entrevista. Realizou-se análise descritiva dos dados, em valores absolutos e percentuais, e por meio da análise de conteúdo. Resultados: Dos 61 pacientes que compuseram a amostra, 52,5% eram do sexo masculino e a idade média foi de 9,7 anos. O ceod e CPOD médios foram, respectivamente, 2,8 ±3,3 e 1,7±1,5, verificando-se que 21,3% dos pacientes (n=13) nunca tinham ido ao dentista e o principal motivo de consulta dos demais foram revisões (26,2%, n=16). Para 41% dos pacientes (n=26), o último acesso à consulta odontológica ocorreu em consultório particular e 47,5% dos pacientes (n=29) já haviam recebido orientações sobre escovação dental. Na abordagem qualitativa, houve relatos de dificuldade no acesso físico aos serviços de saúde. Conclusão: Os pacientes oncopediátricos paraibanos apresentaram condição de saúde bucal satisfatória, buscaram a atenção odontológica para revisões, foram orientados quanto à escovação dental, estando eles satisfeitos com o atendimento odontológico ofertado.

Objective: To identify oral health conditions, access to dental services and analyze the oral health care offered to pediatric oncology patients assisted at the Hospital Napoleão Laureano, João Pessoa / PB. Material and Methods: A cross-sectional study was carried out, whose data collection was through clinical examination, questionnaire use and interviewing. A descriptive analysis of the data was performed, in absolute and percentage values, and through content analysis. Results: Of the 61 patients that composed the sample, 52.5% were male, with a mean age of 9.7 years, and mean of dmft and DMFT verified were 2.8 (± 3.3) and 1.7 (± 1.5), respectively. 21.3% of the patients (n = 13) had never been to the dentist and the main reason for consulting the others were revisions (26.2%, n = 16). 41% of the patients (n = 26) reported that the last dental office to which they had access was private and 47.5% of the patients (n = 29) had already received dental brushing guidelines. In the qualitative approach, there were reports of difficulties in physical access to health services. Conclusion: The pediatric oncology patients studied presented a satisfactory oral health condition, seeking dental care for reviews, were instructed on toothbrushing, being satisfied with the dental care offered.

RESUMO

Objective: To determine a probabilistic model that represents the likelihood of the event Dental Pain to occur in Brazilians patients affected by hereditary coagulopathies. Material and Methods: In this cross-sectional study, information on use and access to dental services, oral morbidity, self-perceived oral health and behavioral health habits were obtained through semi-structured questionnaire and analyzed by means of logistic regression. Results: High prevalence of dental caries was observed for children aged 1-5 years (50%) and for adolescents aged 13-19 years (66%). Cumulative pattern of dental caries in the age groups of 20-35 years and 36-59 years was observed. Most patients did not report pain in the last six months prior to the survey (24.5%). It was observed that searching for dental care for the last time in case of localized pain (OR=26.7), for feeling uncomfortable when brushing teeth (OR=7.3) and difficulty searching for health professionals, not only the dentist (OR 3.7) was considered risk factors for the determination of Dental Pain diagnosis. However, if the patient has mild hemophilia A (OR=0.21), this likelihood decreases, being thus a protective factor. Conclusion: Patients affected by hereditary coagulopathies have high prevalence of caries, indicating the cumulative nature of this disease, which suggests the symptomatic effect of Dental Pain.

RESUMO

A institucionalização da Avaliação em Saúde vem crescendo nas últimas décadas no Brasil, contribuindo para a racionalidade das intervenções setoriais da gestão em saúde. Este estudo avaliou a evolução da cobertura em saúde bucal na Estratégia Saúde da Família em municípios paraibanos, classificando-os em três categorias: satisfatório, intermediário e insatisfatório, a partir de indicadores disponibilizados nos sistemas de informações, nos anos de 2004 a 2010. Para tanto, adotou-se uma abordagem indutiva com procedimento estatístico-comparativo e técnicasa de documentação indireta, utilizando os indicadores: cobertura populacional potencial, para Equipes de Saúde da Família (ESF) e Equipes de Saúde Bucal (ESB). O universo constituiu-se dos 223 municípios do estado da Paraíba. Os dados foram analisados por meio do teste do Qui-Quadrado (p<0,05). Constatou-se um aumento significante (p<0,01) da cobertura referente às ESF e ESB. A cobertura populacional potencial para ESF em 2004 foi satisfatória 77,13% (n=172) dos municípios e em 99,10% (n=221) no ano de 2010. Em relação à ESB, também satisfatórianos anos de 2004 e 2010, respectivamente, em 68,16% (n=152) e 96,41% (n=215) das localidades. Conclui-se quede 2004 a 2010, houve aumento no número de municípios paraibanos com cobertura populacional potencial satisfatória das ESF e das ESB.

The institutionalization of health assessment has been growing in recent decades in Brazil, contributing to the rationality of sectorial interventions in health administration. This study evaluated the evolution of oral health coverage in the Family Health Program in municipalities in Paraíba, classifying them into three categories: satisfactory, intermediate, and unsatisfactory, using indicators provided in information systems, between 2004 and 2010. To this end, we adopted an inductive approach with a comparative-statistical procedure and an indirect documentation technique, using the indicators: population coverage potential, for Family Health Teams (FHT) and Oral Health Teams (OHT). The universe consisted of the 223 municipalities in the state of Paraiba. Data were analyzed using the chi-square test (p <0.05). A significant increase (p <0.01) of coverage for the FHT and OHT was observed. The potential population coverage for the FHT was a satisfactory 77.13% (n=172) of the municipalities in 2004, and 99.10% (n=221) in 2010. In relation to the OHT, the coverage was also satisfactory in 2004 and 2010, respectively, in 68.16% (n=152) and 96.41% (n=215) of the localities. It is concluded that, from 2004 to 2010, there was an increase in the number of Paraiba's municipalities with satisfactory population coverage potential of the FHT and OHT.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The most common and best known hereditary coagulopathies are hemophilia A and B followed by von Willebrand Disease. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to estimate the prevalence of tooth loss and investigate its association with demographic and socioeconomic data, as well as to discuss self-reported oral morbidity and use of health services by patients with coagulopathies treated in blood centers in Paraíba, Brazil. METHODS: This was a quantitative cross-sectional epidemiological survey. Data was collected in the period from October 2011 to July 2012 by clinical examination and by assessing interviews using a semi-structured questionnaire. The findings were analyzed by descriptive and inferential statistics with the level of significance (α) being set at 10%. RESULTS: One hundred and six, predominantly male (88.8%), patients with coagulopathies were evaluated. The ages ranged from one to 59 years. Most patients were of mixed race (61.3%), most reported family incomes between R$ 501.00 and R$ 1500.00 (49.1%), and most had not completed elementary school (37.1%). Hemophilia A was found in 76.4% of the cases. The prevalence of dental caries among individuals was 50.0% predominantly in the 13- to 19-year-old age range (66.7%). As regards to tooth loss, teeth were missing in 35.1% of the study participants. CONCLUSION: Tooth loss is high in this population. Males with severe hemophilia A, those who use fluoride and have a good or very good perception about their last dental appointment have a reduced chance of losing their teeth.

RESUMO

Objetivo: Avaliar o pH, a concentração de Sólidos Solúveis Totais - SST (°Brix), a titrabilidade ácida, e o teor de cálcio e fosfato de três bebidas à base de soja, sabor maçã (AdeS®, Sollys®, AdeS Zero®), água mineral sem gás Água Schin® (controle negativo - CN) e de Coca-Cola® (controle positivo - CP),comercializadas na cidade de João Pessoa - Brasil. Materiais e Métodos: A avaliação do pH foi realizada mediante o uso de pHmetro digital e a do °Brix foi determinada por um refratômetro específico de campo. Para avaliação da titrabilidade ácida foi medida o momento de viragem do indicador fenolftaleína. O teor de cálcio foi mensurado a partir do uso de solução padrão de Ácido Etilenodiamino Tetra-Acético - EDTA (0,01 M) e sua reação com o cálcio na presença do indicador em meio alcalino. A quantificação de fosfato foi feita por meio de espectofotômetro. Para obtenção dos valores de pH, °Brix e titrabilidade ácida foram feitas três aferições, para o cálcio foram feitas duas (a média aritmética foi considerada como resultado final para estas aferições) e para o fosfato, uma aferição. Os resultados foram analisados descritivamente, Resultados: Os valores de pH variaram de 4,01 (Sollys®) a 4,25 (AdeS Zero®). Para os SST a variação obtida foi de 4,17°Brix (AdeS Zero®) a 8,00°Brix (AdeS®). A titrabilidade ácida variou de 5,87mg/100ml (AdeS®) a 7,7mg/100ml (Sollys®). Para a quantidade de cálcio e fosfato a variação foi de 25,55mg/100ml (AdeS®) a 98,15mg/100ml (Sollys®) e24mg/100ml (AdeS®) a 49,5mg/100ml (Sollys®), respectivamente. Conclusões: As bebidas analisadas neste estudo revelaram-se potencialmente erosivas e cariogênicas.
