ABSTRACT Objective: to investigate the evolution and estimate the shortage of Speech, Language and Hearing professionals in Primary Health Care between 2005 and 2015. Methods: a mixed ecological study using data from the National Registry of Health Facilities and the Primary Health Care Information System. A descriptive analysis regarding the evolution of the number of professionals working in Primary Health Care over this period, in Brazilian states and regions, was conducted. The ratio of professionals per 100,000 inhabitants for the years 2005, 2010 and 2015, and the shortages in 2015, were estimated. Results: in 2005, there were 1,717 professionals working in Primary Health Care, that is, one per 100,000 inhabitants. In 2015, there were 4,124, increasing to 2.1/100,000. In 2015, the shortage in supply was 55.1%, varying widely across the states. Conclusion: the shortage in supply is equivalent to an absence of Speech, Language and Hearing service coverage within Primary Health Care for more than half of the Brazilian population. It is worth noting that a conservative parameter was adopted to conduct this estimate. The results suggest a process of consolidation for the inclusion of Speech, Language and Hearing professionals within Primary Health Care, however, still characterized by insufficient and unequal supply across the nation.

Objetivo: Avaliar a influência das ações de alimentação dos Sistemas de Informação utilizados na Atenção Primária a Saúde (APS) sobre os cuidados de enfermagem ao indivíduo ou comunidade. Método: Pesquisa quantitativa, com enfermeiros da Atenção Primária. Utilizaram-se os testes ANOVA one-way, Kruskal-Wallis e correlação de Spearman com significância de 5% e confiança de 95%. Resultados: A maioria dos enfermeiros era mulher (94,5%), 34,4 anos de idade, 8,8 anos de formação, sendo 7,6 anos atuando na atenção primária, especialista e concursada. Observou-se associação negativa (p-valor = 0,008) entre tempo destinado às atividades de alimentação dos sistemas e o tempo de atenção aos pacientes. Conclusão: O estudo aponta a influência das ações gerenciais voltadas aos sistemas de informação sobre a atenção prestada aos indivíduos/comunidade.

Due to earlier recognition and advances in cancer treatment, increasing numbers of women are surviving breast cancer. In Canada, these women are transitioned back to their Primary Care Providers (PCPs), including Nurse Practitioners (NPs) and physicians, soon after their cancer treatment is complete. However, the research suggests that there are numerous barriers that hinder PCPs from delivering evidence-based care to breast cancer survivors. The purpose of this project was to answer the following research question: what are the barriers that PCPs encounter in providing breast cancer survivorship care in the primary health care setting to women who have completed active cancer treatment in Canada? To answer this question a comprehensive review of the literature was conducted. The findings of this integrative review demonstrated provider-related barriers and system-related barriers linked to knowledge deficits, attitudes, workload demands, and perceived suboptimal oncologist support. Key strategies and recommendations to overcome these barriers were examined and discussed in order to improve the care of breast cancer survivors in the primary health care setting.
