Is it colonialism or solidarity in the relations between health works and users? implications for continuity of the care
No full textThis research is inserted in the theme of comprehensive care of the Unified Health System, contemplating the issue continuity of care in the Health Care Networks and having as object the relations that are established in a Family Health Unit of the city of Santa Maria, Rio Grande do Sul. The objectives were: to analyze the process of implementation and monitoring of the Family Health Strategy in Santa Maria; to understand the relation between workers and users during the care practices realized in a Family Health Unit of the city of Santa Maria, relating them to the effective continuity of care in the Health Care Network of the Unified Health System (UHS). It is a social research, with qualitative methodological approach. The objectives of this thesis were developed in two stages. For the first objective, the data collection was conducted through document analysis and semi-structured interviews with managers. We analyze the resolutions, minutes and documents of the Municipal Health Council. The interviews were realized with 16 managers, indicated intentionally, starting with the Municipal Health Secretary which implemented the Family Health Strategy. The presentation of results was organized in themes: The Primary Care in Santa Maria before the implementation of Family Health Strategy, "was how the strategy began in Santa Maria: the presence of UHS in people's lives"; The transition in exchange of management; New management: is it new choices? and Challenge to explain the ups and downs of the Family Health Strategy in Santa Maria. The second objective had the case study as methodological reference. The analysis unit was a Family Health Unit of the city of Santa Maria. The data collection happened for participant observation, direct and unstructured, semi-structured interviews, analysis of documents and records. The research subjects were health workers and users. The analysis was guided for the data collection, mediated by theoretical orientation and premises established. The following themes presented the results: The different ways that the user is subject in Health Care Network; The user participation in the decision of referral: is it possible negotiation?; Use refereed to the Health Care Network: factors that affect this to walk; the manage mode influencing in the autonomy and responsibility of workers; User generalized, disrespected. We learn that the choices of management or the proposed of government are need for improvement or degradation of the Unified Health System. The course of the Family Health Strategy is reflected in daily of the teams, with intends that must be coped to become ineffective and inefficient the restructuration of care model. We advocate the transparency, publicity and the collective construction of criteria, technical and unique, to be used for teams in order to develop new ways to seek the comprehensive care and regulate the Health Care Network. It is need to reverse the pattern of relationship between users and workers, going from colonialism to the solidarity and of cultural invasion to the health promotion.Essa pesquisa insere-se no tema da integralidade da atenção do Sistema Único de Saúde, contemplando a temática da continuidade do cuidado nas Redes de Atenção à Saúde e tendo como objeto as relações que se estabelecem em uma Unidade de Saúde da Família do município de Santa Maria, Rio Grande do Sul. Os objetivos foram: analisar o processo de implantação e acompanhamento da Estratégia Saúde da Família em Santa Maria; compreender as relações entre trabalhadores e usuários durante as práticas de cuidado realizadas em uma Unidade de Saúde da Família do município de Santa Maria, relacionando-as com a efetivação da continuidade do cuidado na Rede de Atenção à Saúde do Sistema Único de Saúde. Trata-se de uma pesquisa social, com abordagem metodológica qualitativa. Os objetivos desta tese foram desenvolvidos em duas etapas. Para o primeiro objetivo, a coleta de dados foi realizada através de análise documental e entrevistas semiestruturadas com gestores. Analisamos as resoluções, atas e documentos do Conselho Municipal da Saúde. As entrevistas foram realizadas com 16 gestores, indicados intencionalmente, iniciando com a Secretária Municipal de Saúde que implantou a Estratégia Saúde da Família. A apresentação dos resultados foi organizada em eixos temáticos: A Atenção Básica em Santa Maria antes da implantação da Estratégia Saúde da Família; “foi assim que a estratégia começou em Santa Maria: a presença do SUS na vida das pessoas”; A transição na troca de gestão; Nova gestão: novas escolhas? e Desafio de explicar os altos e baixos da Estratégia Saúde da Família em Santa Maria. O segundo objetivo teve o estudo de caso como referencial metodológico. A unidade de análise foi uma Unidade Saúde da Família do município de Santa Maria. A coleta de dados ocorreu por observação participante, direta e não estruturada; entrevistas semiestruturadas; análise de documentos e de registros. Os sujeitos da pesquisa foram os trabalhadores de saúde e usuários. A análise ocorreu guiada pela coleta de dados, mediada pela orientação teórica e pelos pressupostos estabelecidos. Os seguintes eixos temáticos apresentam os resultados: Os diferentes caminhos que o usuário está sujeito na Rede de Atenção à Saúde; A participação do usuário na decisão do encaminhamento: negociação é possível?; Usuário encaminhado à Rede de Atenção à Saúde: fatores que interferem nesse caminhar; O modo de gerenciar influenciando na autonomia e responsabilidade dos trabalhadores; Usuário generalizado, desrespeitado. Apreendemos que as escolhas da gestão, ou a proposta de governo, são os disparadores para a melhoria ou degradação do Sistema Único de Saúde. O percurso da Estratégia Saúde da Família está refletido no cotidiano das equipes, com imbricamentos que precisam ser enfrentados, sob pena de tornar ineficaz e ineficiente a reestruturação do modelo de atenção. Defendemos a transparência, a publicização e a construção coletiva de critérios, técnicos e singulares, a serem utilizados pelas equipes no intuito de instituir novas maneiras de buscar a integralidade da atenção e regular a Rede de Atenção à Saúde. É preciso reverter o padrão de relacionamento entre usuários e trabalhadores, indo do colonialismo para a solidariedade e da invasão cultural para a promoção da saúde.Dados abertos - Sucupira - Teses e dissertações (2013 a 2016
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Get PDF“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Get PDFWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Get PDFWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
