Rev Neurocienc 2012;20(3):410-414 relato de caso 410 RESUMO Objetivo. Verificar a influência da fisioterapia aquática na independência funcional e equilíbrio no Acidente Vascular Cerebral (AVC). Método. Foi realizado um estudo de caso com um indivíduo acometido por AVC, gênero feminino, 36 anos de idade com diagnóstico disfuncional de hemiparesia à esquerda. O instrumento utilizado para avaliar o equilíbrio foi à escala de equilíbrio funcional de Berg (EEFB -versão brasileira) composta por quatorze tarefas, já para avaliar a funcionalidade foi utilizada a escala de medida de independência funcional (MIF -versão brasileira) composta por dezoito itens. A fisioterapia aquática consistiu em duas sessões semanais de cinquenta minutos num período de três meses, totalizando 24 sessões, empregando o método Halliwick. Resultados. Na avaliação após a intervenção, foi observada uma melhora na pontuação na escala de EEFB de 15 para 40 pontos, da mesma forma na escala da MIF verificou-se um aumento da pontuação de 91 para 108 pontos. Conclusão. O programa de fisioterapia aquática proporcionou a participante com AVC, uma melhora no equilíbrio e na funcionalidade. ABSTRACTObjective. Verify the influence of aquatic physiotherapy in functional independence and balance in stroke. Method. It was made a study of a case of a patient with stroke, female, 36 years old, with dysfunctional diagnosis of left-side hemiparesis. The instrument used to assess the balance was the Berg Balance Scale (BBC) composed by fourteen tasks and to assess functionality, the Functional Independence Measure (FIM) scale, composed by eighteen items, was used. Aquatic physiotherapy consisted of two weekly sessions of fifty minutes in a three month period of time, doing in total 24 sessions, using Halliwick method. Results. In the assessment after the intervention, an improvement was observed in the BBC scale from 15 to 40 points, also in the FIM scale an improvement from 91 to 108 points was verified. Conclusion. The aquatic physiotherapy program provided the stroke patient an improvement in balance and functionality.
Objectives Neonatal mortality is a global public health problem, and the efforts to reduce child mortality is one of the goals of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, launched in 2015 by the United Nations. The availability of historical neonatal mortality rates (NMR) data in Brazilian municipalities is crucial to evaluate trends at local, regional and national level, identifying gaps and vulnerable territories. Therefore, the objective of this article is to offer an integrated dataset containing monthly data in a historical series from 1996 to 2017 with information on all births, neonatal deaths, and NMR (total, early and late components) enriched with information related to the municipality. Data description It is a dataset of historical data with information on the number of births, the number of neonatal deaths, the neonatal mortality rate (including early and late), and geographic information for each month (between January 1996 and December 2017) and Brazilian municipality.
Objectives Surveillance of infant and fetal deaths is of paramount importance in thinking about government strategies to reduce these rates, provide greater visibility of these mortality figures in the country, enable the adoption of prevention measures, as well as contribute to a better record of deaths. Data description The dataset comprises fetal, neonatal, early neonatal, late neonatal, and perinatal Mortality Rates of Brazilian municipalities with their respective information, between 2010 to 2020, aggregated by epidemiological week.
Objectives The National Registry of Healthcare Facilities is a system with the registry of every healthcare facility in Brazil with information on the capacity building and healthcare workforce regarding its public or private nature. Despite being publicly available, it can only be accessed in separated disjoint tables, with different primary units of analysis. The objective is to offer an interoperable dataset containing monthly data from 2005 to 2021 with information on healthcare facilities, including their physical and human resources, services and teams, enriched with municipal information. Data description Database with historical data and geographic information for each health facility in Brazil. It is composed by 5 distinct tables, organized according to combinations of time, space, and types of resources, services and teams. This database opens up a range of possibilities for research topics, from case studies in a single health facility and period, analysis of a group of health facilities with characteristics of interest, to a broader study using the entire dataset and aggregated data by municipality. Furthermore, the fact that there is a row for each health facility/month/year facilitates the integration with other datasets from the Brazilian healthcare system. In addition to being a potential object of study in the health area, the dataset is also convenient in data science, especially for studies focused on time series.
