Objective: To analyze the historical series of the prevalence of hospitalization for stroke in children and adolescents in the last 18 years. Method: this is a historical series, with data referring to the years 1998 to 2016, collected through the database, DATASUS. Through the link, the TABNET page will be accessed. The raw data were transcribed into an Excel program table (Version 2010) and will undergo simple statistical analysis (calculation of prevalence and simple descriptive analysis). Results: In Brazil, the highest prevalence rate was 1.18 / 100,000 children, occurred in 2014. There is a growing trend both in the number of hospitalizations for stroke in children, as well as an increasing prevalence of this in the pediatric population. The age group from 15 to 19 years old is the most affected, while the period from 4 to 9 years old is the least frequent in hospitalizations. Conclusion: The increase in the prevalence of hospitalization rates due to stroke in children and adolescents stands out, which represents demands for health services, both in hospitals and in primary care.
Objetivo: analizar los factores asociados al seguimiento adecuado del cuidado infantil en niños menores de dos años. Materiales y métodos: estudio analítico-transversal desarrollado entre noviembre de 2019 y marzo de 2020 en las diez unidades básicas de salud de un municipio del interior de Rio Grande do Sul, Brasil. Participaron 71 familiares de niños menores de dos años. Los datos se recopilaron a través de la Herramienta para la Evaluación de la Atención Primaria, versión infantil (PCATool Infantil), e instrumentos de perfil clínico y socioeconómico. Se utilizó estadística analítica, con comparación de frecuencias entre variables. Resultados: el 72 % de los niños menores de dos años tuvieron un seguimiento adecuado durante las consultas. Los hijos de madres que asistieron a una serie de consultas prenatales adecuadas tuvieron un número significativamente mayor de consultas de cuidado infantil de forma adecuada (p = 0,02). Las familias que no han vivido en medio de vulnerabilidades sociales y de salud brindan mejor cuidado a los niños (p > 0,05). Cuidadores más jóvenes mostraron mayor adhesión a las consultas. Conclusiones: la adhesión adecuada de las mujeres gestantes a la atención prenatal, estar bajo la responsabilidad de cuidadores jóvenes y no asistir a guarderías o escuelas fueron los factores significativamente más asociados al seguimiento de puericultura en niños menores de dos años.
Objective To identify the factors associated with the development of skin allergies in the first year of life in moderate and late preterm infants. Method: This is a cross-sectional study with 151 moderate and late preterm infants, born between May 2016 and May 2017. Participants were evaluated in the 3rd, 6th, 9th and 12th months of life, in telephone interviews. Statistical analyzes were performed in the SPSS software with frequency comparison tests and logistic regression. Results: The prevalence of skin allergy, in the perception of caregivers, among late and moderate preterm infants was 16%. Factors such as being admitted to neonatal intensive care (p = 0.006) and not being breastfed (p = 0.041) showed a significant association with the development of skin allergies in the 3rd and 12th months of life, respectively. Conclusion: Skin allergy, in the perception of caregivers, is more severe in newborn infants who have clinical respiratory and gastrointestinal manifestations, be it conditioning or cause-effect. Breastfeeding proved to be a protective factor in the first year of life.
