This study analyzes the results and limits of a university extension project carried out in a public

Despite of the ideal number of visits, the quality of care has been classified as intermediate or inadequate, besides that, precarious access to the orientation for the childbirth during the prenatal care has been evidenced.

This descriptive qualitative study was conducted in basic healthcare units to analyze the perceptions of physicians and nurses from family health teams concerning healthcare for adolescents, using content analysis with an emphasis on thematic analysis. The discourse of these health professionals showed that care exists for adolescents in the family health service, but that: it is not systematized because of other priorities; adolescents fail to use the service; the health professionals feel unprepared to draw adolescents to the service and treat them; and in order to implement a healthcare program for adolescents in the family health strategy it would be necessary to reorganize the service to train the existing team members and hire other professionals. Thus, the interviewees value differentiated care for adolescents, and even while recognizing their limitations and reporting not having been trained, they conduct joint actions with other areas beyond health, demonstrating that they transcend the limits of the health service and seek new ways of treating adolescents holistically.

Prenatal care did not meet the specific expectations of the study group and unveiled that the nurse did not supply it, as a member of the multidisciplinary team. The organization of the nursing work process in primary care, related to prenatal care, needs to be revisited to promote the effectiveness of its actions.

ABSTRACT:Objective: To describe the neonatal mortality coefficient attributed to sepsis and other causes, and to report the maternal, neonatal and death characteristics of newborn infants that died in the city of Londrina, Paraná, in Southern Brazil.Methods: This is a cross-sectional study with a time series analysis. Neonatal deaths that contained neonatal sepsis records in any field of the death certificate between the years 2000 and 2013 were studied. The years were grouped into biennia, and cause specific neonatal mortality coefficient was calculated, according to the International Classification of Diseases, 10th revision. Results are expressed as prevalence ratio and 95% confidence interval (95CI%). For bivariate analysis, p<0.05 was considered significant. Results: Among the 745 deaths, 229 (30.7%) had sepsis, with a neonatal mortality coefficient of 7.5 per one thousand livebirths. Sepsis was involved in 2.3 deaths per 1,000 live births. The main underlying causes were conditions originated in the perinatal period and congenital malformations. Sepsis was associated with pre-eclampsia, urinary tract infection, Apgar in the 1st and 5th minutes, and occurrence of late death. In the descriptive trend analysis, there was an increased proportion of mothers aged 35 years or older and with eight or more schooling years. Prenatal coverage was high, but a little more than half of the mothers attended seven or more medical appointments. Conclusions: In the 14 years analyzed, the prenatal care was identified as a preventive measure against maternal and fetal disorders and the advanced maternal age was associated with neonatal mortality.

Entre as diversas atividades desenvolvidas pelos médicos e enfermeiros da Saúde da Família, a presente pesquisa teve como objetivo caracterizar as ações programáticas, preventivas e de intervenção aos adolescentes e analisar a percepção dos profissionais quanto às praticas de atenção a este grupo etário, por meio da análise quanti-qualitativa. Os resultados demonstraram que os enfermeiros realizam as ações programáticas - pré-natal, preventivo do câncer uterino e planejamento familiar -com maior frequência do que os médicos. Os médicos referem que seus atendimentos se esgotam na consulta. Ambos profissionais afirmam orientar a prevenção da gravidez, DST/aids e uso do preservativo. Quase a totalidade dos enfermeiros e pouco mais de 50% dos médicos fazem ações de intervenção. Há consenso quanto à necessidade da implantação de um serviço sistematizado e que o município precisará capacitar todos os profissionais, reestruturar os recursos materiais e humanos, inserir outros profissionais e integrar as ações com serviços, além do da saúde.
