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.

Abstract:In Ghana, between January 1990 and September 1993, a series of steps were undertaken to review the existing vertical reporting procedures and to develop an integrated Health Management Information System (HMIS) for Primary Health Care (PHC).These steps included a situation analysis of the existing reporting systems; participatory design of tools for planning, data collection, feedback and reporting; field test and revision of the modified system; training of staff at all levels; development of tools for self-assessment and stimulation of routine feedback to lower levels and reporting of analysed indicators to higher levels.There were some notable achievements which included promotion of self-reliance, improved data relevance and accuracy, as well as strengthened supervision and support. However, it was difficult to identify the most appropriate institutional location for the HMIS; over-emphasis on process leads to reduced implementation; reporting was still given greater priority than analysis and use of data, and systems for collection and use were still cumbersome and time consuming. It is also difficult to prove that having better information really improves decision-making, or even coverage and quality of PHC service delivery.These issues, as well as lessons learned, are discussed in the paper.

Abstract:A new research paradigm is emerging based on the multi-agent system architectural framework, allowing human and software agents to interoperate and thus cooperate within common application areas. Within a multi-agent system, the different “views of the world” of knowledgeable agents are to be bridged through their commitment to common ontologies and terminologies. We developed a general methodology for the design or integration of new components into a Health-care Information System conceived as a network of software and human agents. In our view, ontological and terminological services are entrusted to dedicated agents, namely ontology and terminology servers, allowing the configuration of suitable application ontologies for distributed applications. The role is described that such servers, operatively coordinated in order to preserve semantic coherence, should play within a distributed Health-care Information System.
