Objetivos: verificar se a organização da atenção em saúde vigente na Ilha do Combú atende ao princípio da integralidade da assistência à saúde de sua população; identificar possíveis lacunas nos fluxos assistenciais que inviabilizam e interferem na continuidade do tratamento aos ribeirinhos. Método: pesquisa qualitativa utilizando o método da pesquisa-ação e a técnica do grupo focal com 30 participantes entre usuários do serviço e profissionais de saúde da Ilha. Para o tratamento dos dados, adotou-se a análise de conteúdo temático dos depoimentos. O projeto foi aprovado por Comitê de Ética em Pesquisa sob Parecer nº 1.388.689. Resultados: da análise emergiram três categorias: Serviço de saúde com qualidade; Dificuldade de acesso ao serviço de saúde; e Fluxos assistenciais e a integralidade. Conclusão: observou-se que aspectos referentes à qualidade dos serviços de saúde e os aspectos geográficos são fatores intervenientes no contexto da atenção ao princípio da integralidade, condicionado pelas características locorregionais.ABSTRACTObjectives: to ascertain whether health care organization in effect on Ilha do Combú complies with the principle of comprehensive health care for its population, and to identify possible gaps in care flows that hinder and interfere with the continuity of treatment for riverside communities. Method: this qualitative study used the action-research method and focus group technique with 30 participants from among service users and health professionals from the island. Data were treated by thematic content analysis of their accounts. The project was approved by the research ethics committee (Opinion No. 1.388.689). Results: from the analysis, three categories emerged: Health service with quality; Difficulty of access to the health service; and Care flows and comprehensiveness. Conclusion: it was observed that factors relating to health service quality and geography intervene in the context of regard for the principle of comprehensiveness, which is conditioned by local region characteristics.RESUMEN Objetivos: verificar si la organización de atención a la salud vigente en la Isla del Combú atiende al principio de la integralidad de la asistencia a la salud de su población; identificar posibles blancos en los flujos asistenciales que inviabilizan e interfieren en la continuidad del tratamiento a los ribereños.

Abstract Background Organizational health literacy (OHL) aims to respond to the health literacy needs of patients by improving health information and services and making them easier to understand, access, and apply. This scoping review primarily maps criteria characterizing health literate health care organizations. Secondary outcomes are the concepts and terminologies underlying these criteria as well as instruments to measure them. Methods The review was carried out following the JBI Manual on scoping reviews. The databases CINAHL, Cochrane Library, JSTOR, PsycINFO, PubMed, Web of Science Core Collection, and Wiley Online Library were searched in July 2020. Three researchers screened the records and extracted the data. The results were synthesized systematically and descriptively. Results The literature search resulted in 639 records. After removing duplicates, screening by title and abstract, and assessing full-texts for eligibility, the scoping review included 60 publications. Criteria for OHL were extracted and assigned to six main categories (with 25 subcategories). The most prevalent topic of organizational health literacy refers to communication with service users. Exemplary criteria regarding this main category are the education and information of service users, work on easy-to-understand written materials as well as oral exchange, and verifying understanding. The six main categories were defined as 1) communication with service users; 2) easy access & navigation; 3) integration & prioritization of OHL; 4) assessments & organizational development; 5) engagement & support of service users, and 6) information & qualification of staff. The criteria were based on various concepts and terminologies. Terminologies were categorized into four conceptual clusters: 1) health literacy in various social contexts; 2) health literate health care organization; 3) organizational behavior, and 4) communication in health care. 17 different assessment tools and instruments were identified. Only some of the toolkits and instruments were validated or tested in feasibility studies. Conclusions Organizational health literacy includes a significant number of distinct organizational criteria. The terminologies used in the OHL literature are heterogeneous based on a variety of concepts. A comprehensive, consensus-based conceptual framework on OHL is missing.

AbstractLoosely structured documents can capture more relevant information about medical events than is possible using today’s popular databases. In order to realize the full potential of this increased information content, techniques will be required that go beyond the static mapping of stored data into a single, rigid data model. Through intelligent processing, loosely structured documents can become a rich source of detailed data about actual events that can support the wide variety of applications needed to run a health-care organization, document medical care or conduct research. Abstraction and indirection are the means by which dynamic data models and intelligent processing are introduced into database systems. A system designed around loosely structured documents can evolve gracefully while preserving the integrity of the stored data. The ability to identify and locate the information contained within documents offers new opportunities to exchange data that can replace more rigid standards of data interchange.
