Informações em saúde: o uso do SIAB pelos profissionais das Equipes de Saúde da Família

Abstract

The remarkable expansion of Family Health Care Program and the discussion of issues related to the amount of the collected data stimulated the need for designing an information system that embraced the complex organization of basic health care. So, in 1998, the Basic Health Care Information System (SI4B) was founded. This research aimed to investigate the use of SIAB by the professional teams of the Family Health Care. A questionnaire was applied to 75 professionals belonging to 10 teams which were observed, one week each. The study evidenced that the Family Health Care teams that participated in this research have not used the available information for planning or assessing their health care services, and so, they have missed the opportunity of using the available information for health care local needs.

A potencialidade do sistema de informação de atenção básica para ações em fonoaudiologia

“…This approach favors the development of actions and recognition of Speech Therapy in public municipal utilities 22 . Some studies corroborate the difficulties reported in the survey, indicating a high turnover of health professionals in teams and the low qualification of workers in relation to the SIAB, especially physicians and dentists, as hindering factors for the effective utilization of the system 11,17,26,[28][29][30] . These studies indicate that despite the potential of the SIAB as a tool for health planning at the local level, few teams use it for this purpose, limiting it to the Numeric survey data raising, missing out on the opportunity to portray and act in the living/health conditions of the population.…”

Indicators and Information in Local Health Planning: The Perspective of the Family Health Strategy Nurses

“…For some authors, the SIAB is a fundamental requirement for organizing the actions of the ESF team. 2,12,18 Although recognizing the importance of the SIAB, one study undertaken with five health teams evidenced that the SIAB is used in a piecemeal fashion, for updating data and producing monthly reports, and that, in spite of the possibility that it has for offering support to the team, it is often not used by this. In other words, data from the SIAB is not used for organizing the work practices and, although this HIS is the main computerized instrument available, the nurses basically do nothing more than feed information into it.…”

“…In relation to the functioning of the ESF, emphasis is placed on those actions for emphasizing health promotion and prevention of disease, health education and mobilization of the community for a better quality of life. [1][2] The ESF has, as its principle, to work in Primary Health Care (PHC) in a holistic and continuous way, such that the health team may undertake attendance in the HC, in people's homes, and in the community. This strategy seeks to broaden the development of an approach geared towards the family and the community, inserted in their context, with contribution from professionals from various areas of care.…”

“…It is based on the SIAB that the ESF health team selects priority actions geared towards the families, based on their needs. 2,[9][10] The SIAB is characterized by the fact that it describes the socioeconomic context of the community, contributing to the monitoring of the population's health. It is the main instrument for monitoring primary care as it uses concepts such as territorialization, the registration to particular units of the population, and the work of the multidisciplinary team.…”

Análise do acompanhamento das crianças pelas equipes de saúde da família utilizando o sistema de informação da atenção básica

“…Entretanto, estudos revelam que ele é pouco ou não é utilizado pela maioria das equipes quando comparado às suas potencialidades (FREITAS; PINTO, 2005;MARCOLINO;SCOCHI, 2010;SILVA;LAPREGA, 2005) e não tem sido identificado como fonte de dados e gerador de informações para nortear as ações e atividades profissionais (RIGOBELLO, 2006 Dentre todas as fichas do SIAB foram analisadas a ficha A e a ficha C. A ficha A é um instrumento em que os ACS devem cadastrar as famílias pertencentes a sua micro área, ou seja, esse cadastro deve conter dados de todos os moradores de determinada residência. É importante que este cadastramento seja feito logo na primeira visita e esteja atualizado, pois assim é possível que toda a equipe conheça as características da população.…”
