O Projeto Rondon tem criado oportunidades, especialmente na saúde, para que universitários interajam com comunidades vulneráveis, socializando saberes e discutindo soluções coletivamente. O Agente Comunitário de Saúde (ACS) é um personagem fundamental na implementação do Sistema Único de Saúde (SUS), fortalecendo a integração entre os serviços de saúde e a comunidade. Mesmo com muitos avanços, a formação dos ACS permanece um desafio. Este estudo relata a experiência de um projeto de extensão na elaboração, desenvolvimento e realização de uma capacitação para ACS no município de Lindoeste, Paraná. As oficinas foram elaboradas multidisciplinarmente por acadêmicos de enfermagem, nutrição, psicologia e engenharia ambiental. Adotou-se o conceito ampliado de saúde, abordando conceitos do SUS, promoção e prevenção, educação ambiental, nutrição, humanização, além de demandas locais. A utilização de metodologias ativas e de temas relacionados à comunidade permitiram a troca de saberes, criando um espaço em que todos puderam expor suas opiniões e assim buscar soluções para os problemas locais. O desconhecimento dos ACS sobre os conceitos do SUS foi um desafio para o aprofundamento da discussão, moldando o debate muitas vezes num modelo pedagógico clássico. Um ponto positivo foi a integração e colaboração entre os ACS a partir do entendimento dos impactos que o processo de trabalho pode trazer ao município. A partir da capacitação dos ACS, ficou evidente a importância de os projetos de extensão estarem em consonância com as necessidades do território que, no presente trabalho, revelou a necessidade de elaboração e realização da educação continuada dos ACS. Palavras-chave: Sistema Único de Saúde; Atenção Primária à Saúde; Educação Continuada; Relações Comunidade-Instituição Training community health workers: integration between university and primary healthcare   Abstract: The Rondon Project has provided opportunities, especially in the health area, for university students to interact with vulnerable communities, share knowledge, and discuss solutions collectively. The Community Health Worker (CHW) plays a key role in implementing the Brazilian Unified Health System (Sistema Único de Saúde - SUS), strengthening the integration between health services and the community. Even with many advances, the education of CHWs remains a challenge. This study reports an extension project's experience in elaborating, developing, and accomplishing training for CHW in Lindoeste, Paraná state, Brazil. The workshops were developed in a multidisciplinary manner by nursing, nutrition, psychology, and environmental engineering students. The expanded health concept was adopted, addressing SUS concepts, health promotion, prevention, environmental education, nutrition, humanization, and local demands. The use of active learning methods and community-related themes allowed for knowledge sharing, creating an environment where everyone could express their opinions and seek solutions to local problems. CHW's lack of knowledge about SUS concepts was a challenge to deepen the discussion, often shaping the debate in a traditional way. A positive point was the integration and collaboration among CHW, which were carried out in understanding the value of the collaborative workflow for their community. This experience highlighted the importance of the extension project being in tune with the demand of the territory, which in the present work revealed the need to elaborate and carry out continuing education of the CHW.

Abstract Background In 2003, the National Policy for Continuing Education in Health (PNEPS) was created as a strategy to train and update workers of the Unified Health System. To be effectively instituted, the Open University of the Brazilian Unified Public Health System was conceived to offer free online courses. But, it was observed that the online educational modules developed were not structural and pedagogically homogeneous. Objective Propose a matrix of criteria and guidelines to support the improvement of the design of instructional modules, investigating three main areas: ergonomics, education and health. Methodology Anasynthesis was the approach to build the evaluation matrix. Results The matrix consists of 29 criteria (Accessibility, Progression Activities, Updating Practices, Self-Analysis and Self-Management, Assessment, Cognitive Load, Student-Centered, Collaboration, Compatibility and Interoperability, Consistency, Knowledge Building, Student Control, Documentation and Help, Aesthetics, Feedback, Flexibility, Error Management, Interactivity, Maintenance, Clear Instructional Goals and Objectives, Motivation, Personalization, Problem Practicing, Critical Reflection, Relevance, Renewable, Safety, Use of Different Paths, Valorization of Knowledge) with 132 guidelines that allows to check if the online self-instructional module meets minimum quality criteria. Five courses produced by the UNA-SUS system were tested and compared with the perception of users of these courses, obtained by the polls for opening and closing the courses. There was an approximation between the evaluations using the matrix and the responses of the surveys of the courses, answered by the users. Results from these surveys were transferred to a user matrix. The Interactivity and Collaboration criteria were considered non-mandatory for self-instructional courses without tutors. Conclusions The matrix is an adequate evaluation tool for self-instructional courses developed for Continuing Education. Key messages The evaluation matrix is adequate to evaluate online self-instructional courses developed for Health professionals qualification. Self-instructed courses could be a good tool for Continuing Education in health, according to students’ perceptions.

Abstract In view of the national scenario of scarcity of material and human resources in public health in Brazil, the survey verified the demographics of doctors who attend the Unified Health System (SUS) in municipalities of extreme poverty. An observational, analytical and cross-sectional study was carried out, based on secondary quantitative data from the Department of Informatics of the SUS using the TABNET of December 2019. The care networks variable was restricted to infer the number of physicians who attend the SUS in extreme poverty municipalities in Brazil. Municipalities of extreme poverty are those that at least 20% of the population have a household income of up to 145 reais per capita monthly. In Brazil, there are 1526 municipalities in extreme poverty, 27.4% of the country's total municipalities. 14,907 doctors linked to SUS work in this condition, 3.19% of the total of these professionals in Brazil. There is still disproportion between regions: North concentrates 11.2% of the municipalities in extreme poverty and 8.61% of the total number of doctors; Northeast, with 61.33% of these municipalities, for 61.5% of doctors; Southeast, with 15.46% of the municipalities in this condition, has 20.6% of doctors; South concentrates 10.87% of the municipalities under discussion with 5.61% of doctors and the Midwest, with 4.87% of these municipalities, has 3.54% of doctors. Between 2009 and 2018, there was a 39% increase in the number of doctors in these locations, however, for 2019, there was a decrease of 3.89%. The medical demographic distribution in Brazil is uneven, especially in the North. There is also the vulnerability of this population in view of the observed reduction in the number of professionals between 2018 and 2019 in municipalities of extreme poverty, for political reasons. It is evident the need to restructure the health system to guarantee access to health for this population, through the attraction and fixation of doctors in needy regions in Brazil. Key messages Shortage of doctors in extreme poverty municipalities reinforces the health vulnerability of the population in Brazil. The uneven medical demography in Brazil requires restructuring in the public health system.

Harsh Criticism

Calls to address crack-cocaine use in Brazil among homeless and street-frequenting populations who are in urgent need of health services have questioned the capacity of the Brazilian Unified Health System to attend to the nation’s most marginalized citizens. In recent years, Brazil has launched several actions to escalate care for substance users, yet many obstacles hindering accessibility and effectiveness of services remain. Paradoxically, these actions have been implemented in the context of a growing economic crisis, and expanding services for a population of poor and stigmatized substance users while cutting other government programs tends to elicit harsh criticism from citizens. In consequence of such prospects, this commentary aims to discuss barriers marginalized substance users face in accessing health services that are at risk of worsening with government cutbacks. Using Rio de Janeiro as an example, we explore two primary issues: the resource-strained, under-staffed and decentralized nature of the Brazilian Unified Health System and the pervading stigma that bars vulnerable citizens from official structures and services. Abandoning initiated government efforts to increase access to health services would risk maintaining vulnerable citizens at the margins of public structures, inhibiting the opportunity to offer this population humane and urgently needed treatment and care.

Abstract Introduction There are gaps in knowledge regarding the neglected and vulnerable subgroups of FP actions in Brazil, such as postpartum women and women in general, regardless of their marital status. Objective To assess changes in the prevalence of use and in the contraceptive pattern of Brazilian women up to two years after pregnancy, between 2006 and 2013. Methods Cross-sectional, descriptive and analytical study which used secondary data from national surveys. We studied Brazilian women with up to 2 years postpartum, of reproductive age, sexually active, non-pregnant and menstruating, and compared them with all the other women. We estimated the prevalence of use, contraception pattern of contraception and ranking of modern methods. Percentual change in indicators between the years was evaluated by calculating the difference between estimates. Results 85% of Brazilian women used CM, remaining stable in 2006 and 2013, with a high prevalence of modern methods use. An increase in the use of CM was observed among those with up to six months postpartum (71.0% to 89.0%). Pills and condoms accounted for about 60% of modern methods used in the postpartum period in both surveys. There was an increase in dual protection (2.9% to 10.1%) and contraceptive insecurity (1.6% to 5.7%) and a reduction in sterilization (16.2% to 13.4%) and traditional methods (2.1% to 1.4%). Conclusions Even with the maintenance of a high prevalence of use of CM and with the increase in contraception among women with up to six months postpartum, regional inequalities in access to CM and low prevalence of the use of other methods made available by the Unified Health System (SUS) persist, pointing out the maintenance of the insufficient care, failures in the means to regulate fertility and that public policies still hinder to guarantee the sexual and reproductive rights of the most vulnerable population. Key messages Regional inequalities in access to contraceptive methods and low prevalence of other methods made available by the Unified Health System (SUS) persist. There was an increase in contraception use among women with up to six months postpartum in Brazil.

OBJECTIVE: To identify limiting factors in the management of pharmaceutical services in the primary health care provided by the Brazilian Unified Health System (SUS). METHODS: This study was based on the data from the Pesquisa Nacional sobre Acesso, Utilização e Promoção do Uso Racional de Medicamentos no Brasil (PNAUM – National Survey on Access, Use and Promotion of Rational Use of Medicines), and it was conducted by interviews with professionals responsible for pharmaceutical services in Brazilian cities, in 2015. To identify the management limiting factors, we considered the organizational, operational, and sustainability indicators of the management. For the analyses, we included the weights and structure of analysis plan for complex samples. The results were expressed by frequencies and measures of central tendency with 95% confidence interval, considering the Brazilian geographic regions. RESULTS: We identified the following limiting factors: lack of pharmaceutical services in the Municipal Health Secretariat organization chart (24%) and in the health plan (18%); lack of participation of managers in the Health Board and the absence of reference to this topic in the agenda of meetings (58.4%); lack of financial autonomy (61.5%) and lack of knowledge on the available values (81.7%); lack of adoption of operational procedures (about 50%) for selection, scheduling, and acquisition; and the fact that most professionals evaluate the organization of pharmaceutical services as good and great (58.8%), despite the worrisome indicators. CONCLUSIONS: Pharmaceutical services management is currently supported by a legal and political framework that should guide and contribute to improve the pharmaceutical services in the Brazilian Unified Health System primary health care. However, there is a mismatch between the goals established by these guidelines and what is actually happening
