To translate and adapt the Modified Swallowing Assessment (MSA) protocol for post-stroke patients into Brazilian Portuguese.

This is an initial stage of the Brazilian Portuguese Modified Swallowing Assessment validation process. Translation was performed by two bilingual speech therapists and the translations synthesis evaluations by two external dysphagia experts. The synthesis version in the target language (Portuguese) was back-translated into the source language (English). After the synthesis of the translated versions, the instrument was applied to 22 post-stroke individuals.

Health professionals discussed all the results of the study stages considering the instrument concept and the target population. The semantic, linguistic and conceptual equivalences found in the translation and adaptation process were adequate, not requiring modifications since the items were consistent with the Brazilian culture.

MSA was translated and adapted to Brazilian Portuguese (MSA-BR). The translation and cross-cultural adaptation process included all the items of the original protocol and maintained the standards and characteristics of the instrument.

Qualitative research from an international multicenter study Equity-LA II. Audios were retrieved from eleven interviews of doctors/nurses of two levels of care in Recife, 2014. A content analysis of the theoretical framework of coordination was performed in the light of the hermeneutic approach. Most professionals knew the duties of coordination, without identifying its execution. The primary care physician was not recognized as responsible for the clinic, nor for his role by the specialist physician, while the primary care physician resented it. Failures in the use/completion of reference/counter-reference mechanisms and organizational barriers emerged. The unavailability for the "conversation game" and "fusionality" was evidenced in the lack of recognition of authority in the authoritative character of the primary care physician by that of the specialized, feeling of less value for that and technicist and specialized posture in everyone's practice. The coordination in on professionals' view revealed the "there-to-be-understood" condition that needs to be launched in the "game of comprehension" to build dialogical practices focused on integral care.The scope of this study was to identify and analyze the social representations of abortion for gynecologists and obstetricians. The methodology used was the Semi-Structured Interview with 20 gynecologists and obstetricians (10 males and 10 females) from 34 to 67 years of age, who worked in hospitals in the Metropolitan Region of Belo Horizonte in the State of Minas Gerais. The results showed that abortion is recurrent in the daily routine of the interviewees, mobilizing the elaboration of social representations that help them to make it a familiar topic. Typologically, the representations identified were polemic social representations. Most participants objectified the abortion as Decision/Right, anchoring it in basic values, such as liberty, which oriented the practice of abortion and support its legalization. In parallel, another group of participants configured abortion as Murder, anchoring it in basic values considered unquestionable, such as life, which implied in the defense of the fetus, and conscientious objection to the practice of abortion.This study aimed to estimate cost and compatibility with public financial incentives of two technologies for treating the edentulous mandible lower complete dentures (CD) and overdentures retained by two dental implants (OD). This study consisted of a partial economic evaluation, with a micro-costing bottom-up approach for the calculation of direct costs. The estimates involved the number of consultations, proportion of materials, equipment, instruments' lifetime, and human resources, described in the price panel website of the Ministry of Economy in Brazil. Complementary information was obtained from a panel of experts. U0126 A sensitivity analysis was based on 20% variation. The estimated cost of a CD was R$ 189.89 (base scenario), and this varied between R$ 151.91 and R$ 227.89 according to sensibility analysis. The cost of an OD was R$ 663.05 (ranging from R$ 795.66 to R$ 530.44 - 1US=R$ 3.80/July 2019). The Ministry of Health covers appropriately the costs of the CD and OD. Both technologies showed costs that are within the limits of financial public incentives obtained by municipalities. The technologies are economically viable and should be induced through public policies due to their positive impacts on several functional domains of health.The training directed at the Unified Health System (SUS) has been one of the most challenging assumptions in the development of Dentistry courses in Brazil. In this regard, public health educated teachers play a fundamental role in the curricular proposition favoring such an approach. This study aimed to identify the possible advances achieved in Dentistry courses and the challenges in training for the SUS. This is a quantitative, cross-sectional research with a sample of 119 teachers employing the probabilistic Snowball technique. Participants responded to a validated criteria matrix, and an exploratory factor analysis was performed for data analysis, which defined five factors responsible for training for the SUS Primary Care; Social Responsibility and Teamwork; Health Management; Information Systems, and Continuing Education/Humanization. The study allowed identifying significant advances in the perspective of greater adequacy of the training proposal aimed at the SUS. However, some challenges to teachers require expanding the prospect to face the barriers still imposed by traditional health training.The scope of this study was to characterize the prevalence of violent behaviors such as aggression, robbery and carrying a weapon, according to sociodemographic and lifestyle variables such as physical inactivity, use of illicit drugs, harmful alcohol consumption, smoking habits and unhealthy food consumption among university students. A cross-sectional, census-type study was carried out with students aged 18 years or older, in face-to-face classrooms at a public higher education institution in southern Brazil. In the data analysis Poisson regression was used to calculate Prevalence Ratios (PR) with adjustment based on a hierarchical conceptual model. The prevalence of one or more violent behaviors was 15.1%. After adjustment, the prevalence was significantly greater for males [PR=1.40 (95%CI 1.10; 1.77), p=0.01]. Violence was associated with higher levels of physical activity, use of illicit drugs and harmful consumption of alcohol. The findings show the sociodemographic profile of students who perpetrate violent behaviors, and can be useful for planning health promotion interventions aimed at preventing modifiable risk factors associated with violent behavior in this population.The aim of this study was to analyze health service accessibility and the care pathways of children admitted to hospital for ambulatory care sensitive conditions (ACSCs). A cross-sectional study was conducted of a random sample of children hospitalized over a period of one year in a town in the north of Minas Gerais, Brazil. The Primary Care Assessment Tool Child Edition, adapted and validated for use in Brazil (PCAT-CE), was used to assess accessibility and interviews were conducted with the children's carers to determine the pathway taken to hospitalization. Of the 376 pediatric hospitalizations assessed, 109 (28.9%) were classified as ACSC admissions. Health service accessibility and utilization scores were low for both the ACSC and non-ACSC groups. No statistically significant differences (p less then 0.05) were found between the two groups. The care pathways reveal that most families visited hospitals as the first service and that visits to other health services were frequent. Well over half (63.3%) of the families of children admitted for ACSCs did not seek primary health services at any time. Accessibility was poor among the study group, regardless of the reason that led to hospitalization. The care pathways reveal an irregular pattern of service utilization for children admitted for ACSCs, suggesting a fragile health care network.Neuropsychiatric drugs are used for a wide variety of neurological and psychiatric conditions. This article aims to analyze the trend and determinants of public expenditure of these medicines in Minas Gerais, from 2010 to 2017. Data from the Integrated Materials and Services Administration System (SIAD) database were used to estimate volumes of acquisition and expenditure. A breakdown analysis was performed, and the list of purchased drugs was reviewed, and the Drug Utilization technique (DU90%) applied concerning anti-Parkinson drugs. Annual expenditure dropped by 36%, from R$ 111.7 million in 2010 to R$ 40.9 million in 2017, and the determinant factors were the falling prices and volume, associated with changes in the drug mix, which favored the acquisition, on average, of more expensive products. Higher levels of expenditure for anti-Parkinson drugs stand out, however, with a significant change in the list purchased. This study contributed to a better understanding of public spending on neuropsychiatric drugs.
