Pistas para potencializar grupos na Atenção Primária à Saúde

Objective: to analyze the aspects that potentialize groups in Primary Health Care according to their coordinators and participants. Method: This is a descriptive study with a qualitative approach, conducted with a health promotion group affiliated with a Family Health Unit. The data were collected by means of focus groups with participants and community workers who were submitted to thematic content analysis. Results: the analysis gave rise to three thematic categories: The group is our medicine; Healthy living and learning; and Priceless leadership. Conclusion: the leads identified during the study were as follows: group organization involves investment in motivation and leadership by the coordinators; production of grouping and cohesion is a result of participants and coordinators meeting together, interspersed with dialog, things said and left unsaid that the subjects expressed in the group dynamic; the sense of belonging guarantees their placement in the group based on the recognition of their knowledge and affective, social and health needs.Objective: to analyze the aspects that potentialize groups in Primary Health Care according to their coordinators and participants.

FORCES INTERFERING IN THE MOTHERING PROCESS IN A NEONATAL INTENSIVE THERAPY UNIT

Objective: to identify the driving and restrictive forces involved in the maternity process for newborns hospitalized in a neonatal intensive care unit. Method: descriptive and exploratory research, with a qualitative approach, which uses the Force Field Theory as a reference. Ten mothers participated. Data were collected from September to December 2014, through a semi-structured interview, and submitted to content analysis. Results: effective communication, inclusion of the family in care, teamwork, learning and adequate physical space served as forces that fostered mothering. Authoritative behaviors, stigmas related to the neonatal intensive care unit, lack of specialized care, failure to perform care for the newborn, physical fatigue, emotional stress and changes in the daily routine acted as forces that restricted the mothering process. Conclusion: identifying the field of forces made it possible to understand factors and situations that influence mothering and to diagnose the true biopsychosocial demands of mothers of hospitalized newborns.

Qualidade de vida para avaliação de grupos de promoção da saúde

Objective: to analyze the use of quality of life assessment (QOL) as a strategy to evaluate the work with health promotion groups in the community. Method: cross-sectional, descriptive and analytical study. Participants of two elderly groups (n=46) were individually interviewed to fi ll the sociodemographic instruments, WHOQOL-BREF and WHOQOL-OLD. Results: the participants were women with up to 79 years, who did not live with a partner, with up to four years of study, retired, with individual income of up to a minimum salary. The mean scores on the WHOQOL-BREF were higher on “Social Relations” and lower in the “Environment”. For the WHOQOL-OLD, the highest scores were achieved in facets “Social Participation” (G1) and “Past, Present and Future Activities” (G2), while “Death and Dying” facet obtained lower scores in both groups. Conclusion: the assessment of QOL appears to be useful in helping to identify the coordination aspects of life of elderly people that need to be better developed in groups.
