“…The results of this study show that the proportion of hospital admissions in children under five years of age over the twelve-year period in the State of Paraná due to ACSC was 10.2%; less than that observed by a study carried out in the State of Minas Gerais, which showed that ACSC admissions accounted for 41.4% of overall admissions (14) . In the Northeast region, ACSC admissions accounted for 60% of overall admissions in children under five years of age in 2010 (10) .…”

Objective: to describe hospital admissions for ambulatory care sensitive conditions in children under five years of age in the State of Paraná, Brazil by condition type, age group and health region. Method: a temporal ecological study was conducted using data from the Unified Health System Hospital Information System for the period 2000 to 2011. Conditions were grouped in accordance with the list of ambulatory care sensitive conditions in Brazil. Results: there was an increase in the rate of admissions for ambulatory care sensitive conditions in all age groups in 50% of the health regions, with a marked increase in children under the age of one. Pneumonia, gastroenteritis and asthma were the main causes of admissions. There was an increase in the proportion of overall admissions accounted for by pneumonia and gastroenteritis. Conclusion: the increase in admissions reveals the need for actions to improve access to primary healthcare and provide effective treatment of the main ambulatory care sensitive conditions in order to prevent hospital admissions among children.

“…This proportion was higher in comparison with other studies, in which the rates of HACSC range from 35 to 60%. 6,8,[18][19][20][21] This finding suggests that either access and/or the quality of care offered are inadequate, further reinforcing the importance of this study.…”

Introduction:Hospitalizations for ambulatory care-sensitive conditions (HACSC) are considered an indicator of the effectiveness of primary health care (PHC). High rates of HACSC represent problems in the access or the quality of health care. In Brazil, HACSC rates are high and there are few studies on the factors associated with it. Objective: To evaluate the access to PHC offered to children and adolescents hospitalized due to ACSC and analyze the conditioning factors. Method: Cross-sectional study with a quantitative and qualitative approach. Five hundred and one (501) users (guardians/caregivers) and 42 professionals of PHC units were interviewed over one year. Quantitative data were obtained using Primary Care Assessment Tool validated in Brazil (PCATool-Brazil), while qualitative data were collected by semi-structured interview. The independent variables were: age, maternal education, family income, type of diagnosis, and model of care offered, and the dependent variables were access and its components (accessibility and use of services). Results: Sixty-five percent (65.2%) of hospitalizations were ACSC. From the perspective of both users and professionals, access and its components presented low scores. Age, type of diagnosis, and model of care affected the results. Conclusion: The proportion of HACSC was high in this population. Access to services is inappropriate due to: barriers to access, appreciation of the emergency services, and attitude towards health needs. Professional attitudes and opinions reinforce inadequate ideas of users reflecting on the pattern of service use.

“…This situation is linked to issues involving specificities of the Municipalities, in relation to the focus of such actions of Basic Care and also the difficulties not only for the users to have physical access to the services, but also to be guaranteed access to health care. In studies 17 about the issue, we have raised the issue that ACSPC could be the result of a fragmented and punctual type of assistance. Together with this, it is known (10) that public policies that prioritise the importance of actions to prevent the acutisation of these conditions, or treating them when already installed, does not suffice.…”

The purpose here established was that of establishing, within the municipalities in the southern part of the Brazilian State of Rio Grande do Sul, the profile of admittances to hospital resulting from Non-Contagious Chronic Diseases Sensitive to Primary Health Care (NCCDSPHC) among chronologically advantaged patients. This is a transversal study with secondary data obtained from the Information Technology Department of the Brazilian Public Health System -SUS (DATASUS), including variables related to admittance to hospital and also the mortality rates in hospitals (according to causes, gender, age, and time spent in hospital). The NCCDSPHC are responsible for 43.99% of hospital admittances for all causes (AAC), with Pulmonary Diseases standing out as the most prevalent single group (18%), followed by Heart Failure (12.28%). The female sex, with the exception of the Pulmonary Disease category, is the one that causes most admittances to hospital through other causes. We also found a linear trend towards an increase in the mortality rate of the NCCDSPHC when grouped together. Our conclusion is that, due to the magnitude of the admittances to hospital, as also the increase in the mortality caused by the NCCDSPHC, it is urgent to embark on more in-depth considerations about care to be taken as part of primary care for the chronologically advantaged in this region.Descriptors: Senior Citizens.
