Autor(es): Prado, Nilia Maria de Brito Lima; Freitas, Camila Amaral Moreno; Nunes, Fabiely Gomes; Figueroa, Cristian David Osorio; Pereira, Gabriela Evangelista; Morais, Marciglei Brito; Santos, Hebert Luan Pereira Campos dos; Vilasbôas, Ana Luiza Queiroz; Aquino, Rosana Abstract: The study analyzes the development of responses to address the COVID-19 pandemic in Latin America. It is a descriptive study based on an analysis of documents, data, and policy measures adopted or announced between March and December 2020 in 14 Latin American countries. The analysis included assessment of the content, tenor, and scope of policy measures for containment and mitigation, health care, and reorganization of health services identified on government websites. In addition, quantitative demographic indicators were included, as well as those related to the epidemiological situation and the result of the Stringency index. In general, the responses of Latin American countries were heterogeneous, albeit multisectoral, characterizing the complexity and diversity of decision making when confronting a pandemic. The conclusion drawn is that there is still a great deal to reflect upon with respect to the consequences of regulatory weaknesses for the achievement of multidimensional demands during health crises.

Autor(es): Andrade, Natalia Vital de Sales; Matos, Catharina Abstract: This work describes a situational analysis of a Speech, Hearing and Language clinical school at a federal university in Bahia, examining how it functions and coordinates with the municipal health system in Salvador, Bahia. It is a descriptive case study, whose methodological strategy is based on Carlos Matus’ Situational Strategic Planning (Planejamento Estratégico Situacional: PES) with a Focus on Problems. Our methodological strategy employed document analysis, participant observation, semi-structured interviews and a focus group with institutional actors. The results indicate weaknesses in four of the five categories of analysis, which were: infrastructure, funding, organization, and management. These have led to failings in student training and in the institution’s integration with the municipal health system. Of the twenty identified problems, ten related to the institutional actors’ capacity for both governance and governability, in other words, problems that are amenable to intervention. We conclude that the clinical school must institutionalize the practice of situational strategic planning to combat improvisational practices and enable it to effectively fulfil its two important functions: teaching and healthcare.

Autor(es): Barros, Sandra Garrido de; Cruz, Denise Nogueira; Souza, Jamacy Costa; Silva, Livia Angeli; Guimarães, Maria Clara da Silva; Rezende, Morena Morais; Paim, Jairnilson Silva; Vieira-da-Silva, Ligia Maria Abstract: The uncertainties about COVID-19 require evaluating national responses to identify successes and failures in the pandemic control. This article analyzes Portugal´s response, particularly the contribution of its health and surveillance systems in dealing with the pandemic. An integrative literature review was conducted, including consultations of observatories, documents, and institutional websites. Portugal´s response was agile and showed unified technical and political coordination, including surveillance structure using telemedicine. The reopening was supported by high testing and low positivity rates and strict rules. However, the relaxation of measures as of November/2020 resulted in an increase in cases, collapsing the health system. The response involved a consistent surveillance strategy with innovative monitoring tools, which, combined with high population adherence to vaccination, led to overcoming that moment and kept hospitalization and death rates at new disease waves at low levels. Thus, the Portuguese case discloses the risks of disease resurgence with the flexibility of measures and the population´s exhaustion in the face of restrictive measures and new variants, but also the importance of articulation between technical coordination, the political sphere, and the scientific committee.

Autor(es): Brito, Mariana; Almeida, Ana Caroline Caldas de; Cavalcante, Franciana; Mise, Yukari Figueroa Abstract: Objective: to describe the completeness of notifications of accidents involving venomous animals held on the Notifiable Health Conditions Information System (SINAN), in Brazil and its macro-regions, from 2007 to 2019. Methods: we analyzed essential and non-mandatory fields for snakebite, spider bite and scorpion sting notifications, considering the following completeness categories: Excellent (≤5.0% incompleteness), Good (5.0% to 10.0%), Regular (10.0% to 20.0%), Poor (20.0% to ≤50.0%) and Very Poor (>50.0%). Proportional change in completeness between 2007 and 2019 was estimated. Results: 1,871,462 notifications were investigated. The “localized manifestations”, “systemic manifestations”, “case classification”, “case progression” and “zone of occurrence” fields had excellent or good completeness. Completeness was regular or poor for the “schooling” and “race/color” fields. The “occupation” field was predominantly poorly or very poorly filled in. There was a proportional worsening in completeness (PC<0) in most regions for the “zone of occurrence”, “case progression” and “schooling” fields. Conclusion: completeness of most fields improved, although socioeconomic and occupational fields require more attention. Editora / Evento / Instituição: Universidade Federal da Bahia.
