Latin American Population

Two aspects of the aging process in Latin America should be specially taken into account in order to evaluate future perspectives of morbidity among the elderly in the region: 1) Cohorts who will compose the bulk of the elderly population in the 21st century in Latin America survived to old age largely because of improvements in medicine and to a much lesser extent to amelioration of living standards, as it is the case in high income countries, and 2) a high proportion of the Latin American population still live in poor economic conditions and even these vulnerable individuals continue to experience gains in (adult and older adult) survival. We aim to evaluate to what an extent recent levels of poverty and indigence among young children in Argentina could impact future levels of disability and demands for long-term care of older people. Our results show that given the levels of poverty and indigence in childhood observed between 1988 and 1994, the relationship between poor early conditions, and the risk of being disabled among the elderly in Argentina, life expectancy with disability at age 60 years old would increase substantially between 2000 and 2040, both in absolute and relative terms.

The population of Brazil and the world is aging. The great challenge is to grow old by maintaining quality of life with health, including oral health. The objective of this study was to identify the recurrent themes in Geriodontics, through a bibliometric survey, using the database of Latin American and Caribbean Literature in Health Sciences (LILACS), conducted in 2016. Geriodontics, as a relatively new specialty, presents major challenges related to the elderly population (oral health, prostheses, periodontics, for example). In view of a historical context of aging and increased elderly population, there is a concern to deepen the studies in relation to the subject. Knowing the problems allows offering a better service with quality and adequate training of the professional.

Resumo: Este estudo de revisão bibliográfica teve como objetivos identificar, em diferentes fontes de dados, literaturas acerca do aumento de idosos submetidos à terapia renal substitutiva e verificar o modelo de cuidado de enfermagem que vem sendo direcionado a essa população. Na contemporaneidade, em decorrência do prolongamento do processo de viver e envelhecer humano, observa-se a doença renal crônica como implicação da hipertensão e do diabetes, tornando-se uma epidemia entre as diferentes idades. A enfermagem motivada para a compreensão das necessidades de saúde da população idosa tem avançado na produção de conhecimento em gerontologia, despontando estudos voltados ao cuidado do idoso renal crônico, o que denota que os profissionais percebem estar frente a uma nova demanda de pacientes, a qual requer a construção de novas abordagens. Palavras-chave: Idoso. Insuficiência Renal Crônica. Diálise. Cuidado de Enfermagem. Abstract: This study of bibliographic review aimed to identify, in different data sources, literatures about the increasing number of elders who undergo substitutive renal therapy and verify the nursing care model that has been directed to this population. Currently, due to the longer human life span and aging process, the chronic renal disease is observed as implication of high blood pressure and diabetes, becoming an epidemic among the different ages. The nursing motivated for the understanding of health needs of the elderly population has advanced in the production of knowledge in Geronthology, bringing out studies related to the care of the chronic renal elder, which shows that professionals are aware of this new demand of patients, which requires the construction of new approaches. Keywords: The Elderly. Chronic Renal Insuffi ciency. Dialisys. Nursing Care.

<p><strong>RESUMO:</strong></p><p dir="ltr"><span>O artigo pretende analisar, a partir da perspectiva da Sociologia Jurídica, como se dão as relações entre os poderes, o direito e a dominação dos sujeitos dominados pelas classes dominantes. Dessa forma, o artigo, inicialmente, valendo-se da epistemologia crítica do “Norte”, faz a análise do processo de dominação, no qual as Ciências Sociais, incluindo o Direito, são elementos essenciais para invisibilizar as lutas sociais. Assim, em seguida, as lutas sociais por novos direitos são analisadas como formas que levam a uma “tomada de consciência” das classes dominadas, levando-as a enveredar pelos caminhos das reivindicações por direitos que lhe foram e são renegados. Finalizando, o trabalho, a partir de uma epistemologia do “Sul”, analisa como têm sido enfrentadas as questões dos novos direitos na América Latina, partindo do pressuposto segundo o qual a questão racial é um dos elementos fundamentais para a compreensão do processo de dominação inaugurado pela Modernidade. A metodologia consistiu na revisão crítica da literatura, incluindo os debates proporcionados pela Sociologia Jurídica, que informa que o direito não é isento de pretensões, mas um instrumento que pode estar a serviço, de forma invisível, das classes dominantes.</span></p><div><strong>ABSTRACT:</strong></div><div> </div><div><p dir="ltr"><span>The article aims the analysis, from the perspective of Juridical Sociology, how the relations between powers, law, domination and dominated individuals take place. At first, the issue adopts the Northern critical epistemology to analyze the process of domination, in which the Social Sciences, including Law, are essential elements to invisibilizate social struggles. Thus, the social struggles for new rights are examined as ways to lead dominated classes to awareness, taking them to follow the paths of demanding for their rights, which have been and still are denied. Concluding, by approaching a Southern epistemology, the paper analyzes how the issues on new rights in Latin American have been faced, assuming that the racial question is one of the fundamental elements in order to understand the process of domination unveiled by Modernity. The methodology is based on a critical review of literature, including the debates provided by Juridical Sociology, which informs that Law is not exempt from exhortations, being, in fact, an instrument that may be used, invisibly, by dominating classes for dominating others, as a rule.</span></p><div><span><br /></span></div></div>

This article reports a critical analysis of gerontological nursing practice guided by Leininger's theory of Culture Care Diversity and Universality. A LILACS database search was performed from January 1970 to June 2006. The analysis suggests that gerontological nursing care based on Leininger's theory needs further development; there is very little published research. The pluralism point of view of the process of taking care of the elderly requires close approximation, active involvement, respect, commitment, and responsibility from health care providers. Appropriate methods of taking care of the elderly should focus on the promotion and maintenance of health, emancipated care, and independence and autonomy. The report of this critical analysis might encourage further development of nursing care to the elderly.
