Abstract Background: Scientific studies on human health are not remote and show that mortality in this population is increasing. Although male morbidity and mortality rates have a considerable weight in national and international epidemiological profiles, the presence of men in primary health care services is lower than that of women. Many injuries could be avoided if men regularly carried out the first preventive measures. Sensitive Conditions to Primary Care are consolidated as an important marker of access to health services and the resolution capacity of Primary Care. In this systematic review, the objective is to identify what is known about the prevalence and / or incidence of Sensitive Conditions to Primary Care in adult men.Methods: We will identify the studies through systematic research in PUBMED-MEDLINE, SCOPUS, Web of Science, Embase, Cochrane, BDTD and OpenGrey. The quality assessment of retrieved articles will be carried out using the critical assessment tools of the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI). The quantitative synthesis of the data will be carried out if the studies are homogeneous and provide adequate result data for meta-analysis. Otherwise, the data will be synthesized, using the narrative synthesis approach.Discussion: This review will explore theprevalenceand / orincidenceofSensitiveConditionstoprimarycare (prevalenceofhospitalizations; incidenceofhospitalizationsand deaths from ACSC) in adultmenandwillact as a usefulsource for researchers, policymakersand stakeholders whendevelopingandimplementinginterventions for thatgroup. Systematic review registration: This systematic review protocol was submitted to International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews (PROSPERO). Submission number: ID 169447. This protocol was prepared using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses for Protocols checklist (PRISMA-P).

We investigated scientific publications on the prescription pattern of systemic hypertension drugs and use of guidelines in primary health care by systematic review and meta-analysis. Articles were selected in the PubMed, Web of Science and LILACS databases, according to the PRISMA statements, from 2004 to 2020. The systematic review showed a higher prescription pattern for combination therapy (52,9%). The meta-analysis confirmed the superiority of prescription for combination therapy (OR 1.76, CI 1.29 - 2.41). Was observed higher monotherapy prevalence in the Swedish study (98%) and combined therapy in Nigerian (98%). Higher frequency prescriptive of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors in Trinidad (64%); diuretics (64%), beta blockers (63%), and calcium channel blockers (53%) in Nigeria; and angiotensin-receptor blockers (43%) in Portugal. Regarding the use of guidelines, 50% the studies reported their use for the prescription of antihypertensive in primary health care.

Remote Consultations

Background There has been growing international interest in performing remote consultations in primary care, particularly amidst the current COVID-19 pandemic. Despite this, the evidence surrounding the safety of remote consultations is inconclusive. The appropriateness of antibiotic prescribing in remote consultations is an important aspect of patient safety that needs to be addressed. Objective This study aimed to summarize evidence on the impact of remote consultation in primary care with regard to antibiotic prescribing. Methods Searches were conducted in MEDLINE, Embase, HMIC, PsycINFO, and CINAHL for literature published since the databases’ inception to February 2020. Peer-reviewed studies conducted in primary health care settings were included. All remote consultation types were considered, and studies were required to report any quantitative measure of antibiotic prescribing to be included in this systematic review. Studies were excluded if there were no comparison groups (face-to-face consultations). Results In total, 12 studies were identified. Of these, 4 studies reported higher antibiotic-prescribing rates, 5 studies reported lower antibiotic-prescribing rates, and 3 studies reported similar antibiotic-prescribing rates in remote consultations compared with face-to-face consultations. Guideline-concordant prescribing was not significantly different between remote and face-to-face consultations for patients with sinusitis, but conflicting results were found for patients with acute respiratory infections. Mixed evidence was found for follow-up visit rates after remote and face-to-face consultations. Conclusions There is insufficient evidence to confidently conclude that remote consulting has a significant impact on antibiotic prescribing in primary care. However, studies indicating higher prescribing rates in remote consultations than in face-to-face consultations are a concern. Further, well-conducted studies are needed to inform safe and appropriate implementation of remote consulting to ensure that there is no unintended impact on antimicrobial resistance.
