The crux of the question is trying to demonstrate that the BPC, understood as a benefit of amparo to the existential minimum, with the wording of article 6, heading, of the Federal Constitution, qualifies as a fundamental right in guard the dignity of the human person and respect for the principle of social need, highlighted by the applicant disability. In this sense, seeks to demonstrate that the State has not yet been able to give the necessary effectiveness to the BPC and the questions of existential minimum to the poor, despite the long treatment given to the subject in the Federal Constitution. To achieve the desired objectives supporting the work on doctrine, the legal system and jurisprudence, opting for the theoretical and dogmatic methodology. Timely reference to some regulations and instruments used by the Special Federal Civil Court of Sao Paulo, with regard to requirements for the granting of the BPC, showing, the illustrative reports content title, expert medical and socioeconomic, as well as judicial decision to assess how this Court faces the question. Still, to Crown the work, if the justices of our courts, with the goal of demonstrating how walks the jurisprudence homeland in dealing with the question of the existential minimum and in particular the assistance benefit, especially for the trial involving the applications of disabled people / Busca-se, na presente dissertação discutir a efetividade da concessão do Benefício de Prestação Continuada (BPC), criado pela Lei nº 8.742, de 07 de dezembro de 1993 e suas alterações posteriores, que regulamentou o art.203, V, da Constituição Federal, frente aos requisitos legais para a sua concessão, especialmente a prova pericial médica e socioeconômica. Trata-se de ponto crucial em razão do qual muitos pedidos deixam de ser concedidos, mediante uma análise dos fundamentos jurídicos que o revestem, principalmente após a internalização no ordenamento jurídico pátrio da Classificação Internacional de Funcionalidades, Incapacidade e Saúde (CIF). O objetivo do estudo está em demonstrar que o BPC, um benefício de amparo ao mínimo existencial, com redação do art.6º, da Constituição Federal, se enquadra como um direito fundamental social, que resguarda a dignidade da pessoa humana e o respeito ao princípio da necessidade social, com destaque para o requerente portador de deficiência. Nesse sentido, procura-se demonstrar que o Estado ainda não foi capaz de dar efetividade ao BPC e às questões de mínimo existencial ao deficiente, apesar do longo tratamento concedido ao tema na Constituição Federal. Para alcançar os objetivos pretendidos o estudo está fundamentado na doutrina, no ordenamento jurídico e na jurisprudência. Optamos, também, pela metodologia teórico-dogmática. Oportuna a referência a alguns regulamentos e instrumentais utilizados pelo Juizado Especial Federal Cível de São Paulo, no que tange aos requisitos para conceder o BPC, apresentando, como exemplo, o conteúdo de laudos médico-pericial e socioeconômico, além de decisão judicial para verificar como essa instância judicial enfrenta a questão. Ao final, lança-se mão dos julgados dos tribunais brasileiros para demonstrar como caminha a jurisprudência pátria em relação ao mínimo existencial e, em específico, ao benefício assistencial, com destaque para os julgados que envolvem os pedidos dos deficientes

Many individuals with severe motor impairments are cognitively capable, but because of their physical impairments, unable to express their intention through conventional means of communication. Access technologies are devices that attempt to translate the intention of these individuals into functional activity by harnessing their residual physical or physiological abilities. The primary objective of this thesis was to design and develop a novel non-invasive and non-contact access technology based on infrared thermal imaging. This access technology translates the local temperature change associated with voluntary mouth opening to activation of a binary switch such as a mouse click or key press. To this end, an algorithm based on motion and temperature analyses, and morphological and anthropometric filters was designed to detect mouth opening activity in thermal video in real-time. The secondary objective of this thesis was to introduce a mutual information measure for objective assessment of binary switch users’ performance. A model was suggested, in which combination of cognitive and physical abilities of the human user of a binary access switch constitute a communication channel. The proposed mutual information measure estimates the rate of information transmission in the ‘human communication channel’ during stimulus response tasks. Using this measure, in a study with ten able-bodied participants, the infrared thermal switch was validated against a conventional chin switch. Impairments in body functions and structures that may contraindicate the use of the infrared thermal switch were explored in a study with seven clients, with severe disabilities. Potential hard and soft technological solutions to mitigate the effect of these impairments on infrared thermal switch use were recommended. Finally the infrared thermal switch was tailored to meet the needs of a young man with severe spastic quadriplegic cerebral palsy, who had no other means of physical access.

Research on measures that operationalize still scarce, having been identified in national and international literature review just such a study. This research aims to contribute towards the area, and their goal was to develop a measurement tool based on the components of the ICF-CY to evaluate the motor performance of children 7 years old.. The theoretical construction of the instrument and its validity evidence were conducted through five stages, namely: the motors mapping exams with the ICF-CY, qualitative evaluation of the Instrument for Motor Evaluation in School - IAM (E), the creation of items, the semantic analysis of the items and construct validity. The tests selected were mapped to the domains of the ICF-CY and their relevance evaluated by six judges; domains that showed concordance index lower than 80% were excluded, and of 39 domains 29 remained. To operationalize the construct was held from the use of the Roadmaps Activities Analysis of the proposed items that contemplate. The construction of the items included the description of evidence and qualifying criteria. Then, we performed a semantic analysis of the instrument; this phase involved the participation of 5 children of 6 years, the lower strata of the population involved items without difficulty. The construct validity was performed by 12 judges and the criteria of relevance of the item to the mark in question were assigned from an agreement of at least 80%, on the representativity of the item in a specific factor. No items were excluded in this phase. Were selected, even, the areas that compose the questionnaires regarding the components structures and body functions and environmental factors. Thus, IAM (E) consists of a questionnaire and a scale with tests motor, comprising all components of the ICF-CY. Despite the lack of studies that guide him a methodology for classification and operationalization of its complexity, the construction of the instrument based on the ICF-CY, complied with the proposed objective. Thus, it was concluded that the theoretical phase of the construction of IAM (E) and proposes to continue the validation study for the use of the instrument can be detected and motor deficits prevent the development of disabilities. / A CIF-CJ apresenta componentes como funções e estruturas corporais, atividade e participação e fatores ambientais que possibilitam um olhar holístico sobre a saúde do indivíduo. Pesquisas que a operacionalizam medidas sobre ainda são escassas, tendo-se identificado em revisão bibliográfica nacional e internacional apenas um estudo dessa natureza. A presente pesquisa pretende contribuir para com a área, e seu objetivo foi elaborar um instrumento de medida com base nos componentes da CIF-CJ para avaliar o desempenho motor de crianças de 7 anos. A construção teórica do instrumento e suas evidências de validade foram realizadas por meio de cinco etapas, sendo elas: o mapeamento de exames motores com a CIF-CJ, a avaliação qualitativa do Instrumento para Avaliação Motora em Escolares - IAM (E), a criação dos itens, a análise semântica dos itens e a validade de construto. As provas selecionadas foram mapeadas com os domínios da CIF-CJ e sua pertinência avaliada por 6 juízes; os domínios que apresentaram índice de concordância menor que 80% foram excluídos, e de 39 domínios 29 permaneceram. Para operacionalização do construto realizou-se a partir do uso dos Roteiros de Análise de Atividades a proposta de itens que as contemplassem. A construção dos itens contou com a descrição das provas e dos critérios qualificadores. Em seguida, foi realizada a análise semântica do instrumento; essa fase contou com a participação de 5 crianças de 6 anos, o estrato mais baixo da população que compreendeu os itens sem dificuldades. A validade de construto foi realizada por 12 juízes e o critério de pertinência do item ao traço em questão foi atribuído a partir de uma concordância de pelo menos 80%, sobre a representatividade do item em determinado fator. Nenhum item foi excluído nessa fase. Foram selecionados, ainda, os domínios que comporiam os questionários referentes aos componentes estruturas e funções corporais e fatores ambientais. Sendo assim, o IAM (E) é composto por um questionário e uma escala com provas motoras, contemplando todos os componentes da CIF-CJ. Apesar da falta de estudos que guiassem uma metodologia de operacionalização da classificação e de sua complexidade, a construção do instrumento baseado na CIF-CJ, cumpriu com o objetivo proposto. Desta forma, concluiu-se a fase teórica da construção do IAM (E) e propõe-se a continuação do estudo de validação, para que com o uso do instrumento se possa detectar déficits motores e prevenir o desenvolvimento de deficiências.

The child with physical deficiency faces,daily, challenges for learning in the process of school inclusion. Considering this a reality, the presentresearch aimed to describe the influence of interaction among the components of the ICF-CY. In theevaluation process of functionality and incapacity in children with physical deficiency, originated fromthe sequels of prematurity in the process of school inclusion for the preschooler. For that, it waselaborated a preliminarily called instrument, Instrument for the Evaluation of Functionality andIncapacity in Infancy, for children of 3 until 6 years (IAFII). It was performed a study case, object of thepresent study, to verify the relevancy of the proposal of the instrument and the feasibility of the plan. Inthis study 3 children in process of preschool inclusion were selected, from the feminine sex. C1, 4 yearsold; C2, 6 years old; and C3, 5 years old. Preterm born, diagnosticated with hemiparesy spastic cerebralpalsy. And theirs care givers. The children were taked care in an ambulatorial attendance unit, tied with aUniversity, that gives multiprofessional attendance, in a city of average portage in the interior of SãoPaulo. The present study contemplates the stages of the instrument elaboration as well as itsapplications. Its results were described in studies case. The data of the functionality and incapacityevaluation in the related children, beginning from the functions and corporal structures domains, hadshown that the biggest deficiencies were found in the structures related to the movement. These resultsaccording with the findings obtained from the evaluation in the tasks and general demands and mobilitydomains, which had also indicated the difficulties of the participants in the actions that demanded the useof movements of the superior members, except C3, that presented cognitive deficit. Allied to this, thechildren presented more accented difficulties in the actions that demanded the use of global movementsof the inferior members, also in those that demanded balance and sustentation of these members. Inrelation to another component, the environment factors, in the descriptions of the care givers, disclose tohave positive influence in the lives of the children, emphasizing the emotional and material supportoffered by the family and friends. Analyzing the information that had come from the three componentsof the CIF-CJ, it s possible to affirm that, although exists the structure originated from the environmentsfacilitiers, there is also a lack of equipment which the children could be beneficiated to facilitate theaccomplishment of many tasks, in the house as well as in the school. In function of the acquired results,the importance of the evaluation of the functionality and incapacity of the children with physicaldisability is argued, starting from the interaction between the three components: corporal functions andstructures, activity and participation and environment factors, disclosing in the health condition. Thepreschooler in inclusion process health condition detection showed itself as an important tool tostimulate focused care, resulting in better scholar inclusion results. Finally, on the methodological pointof view, the IAFII proved itself adequate for future studies with larger number of participants. / A identificação precoce de problemas no desenvolvimento de habilidades físicas, psíquicas e sociais, nafase pré-escolar, pode contribuir para os procedimentos de intervenção. A criança com deficiência físicaenfrenta, diariamente, desafios para aprendizagem no processo de inclusão escolar. Considerando essarealidade, a presente pesquisa objetivou descrever a influência da interação entre os componentes daCIF-CJ no processo de avaliação da funcionalidade e incapacidade de crianças com deficiência física porseqüela de prematuridade em processo de inclusão na pré-escola. Para tanto, foi elaborado uminstrumento denominado Instrumento para Avaliação de Funcionalidade e Incapacidade na Infância, paracrianças de 3 a 6 anos (IAFII), composto por um plano de atividades que contemplou domínios deatividade e participação da CIF-CJ e foi construído com base nos roteiros de análise de atividades daterapia ocupacional, além de dois questionários para função e estrutura corporal e fatores ambientais.Participaram do estudo três crianças, do sexo feminino com idades de C1, 4 anos; C2, 6 anos;e C3, 5anos, nascidas pré-termo e com o diagnóstico de paralisia cerebral do tipo hemiparesia espástica e suasresponsáveis. As crianças são atendidas em uma unidade de atendimento ambulatorial, vinculada a umaUniversidade, que presta atendimento multiprofissional, em uma cidade de médio porte no interior deSão Paulo. O presente estudo contempla as etapas de elaboração do instrumento bem como a aplicaçãodo mesmo, cujos resultados foram descritos em forma de estudos de caso. Os dados da avaliação dafuncionalidade e incapacidade das referidas crianças, a partir dos domínios de funções e estruturascorporais mostraram que as maiores deficiências encontram-se nas estruturas relacionadas aomovimento. Estes resultados estão em consonância com os achados obtidos a partir da avaliação nosdomínios de tarefas e demandas gerais e mobilidade que também indicaram as dificuldades dasparticipantes nas ações que exigiam o uso de movimentos dos membros superiores, com exceção de C3que também apresenta déficit cognitivo acentuado. Aliado a isso, as crianças apresentaram dificuldadesexacerbadas nas ações que exigiam o uso de movimentos globais dos membros inferiores, inclusivenaquelas que exigiam sustentação e equilíbrio desses membros. Em relação a outro componente, fatoresambientais, o relato das responsáveis revelou haver um maior número de influência positivas destes navida das crianças, destacando: o apoio emocional e material ofertado por suas famílias e amigos.Analisando-se as informações advindas dos três componentes da CIF-CJ, é possível afirmar que, apesarde haver estrutura oriunda dos facilitadores ambientais, há também a carência de equipamentos dos quaisas crianças poderiam se beneficiar para facilitar a realização de muitas tarefas, tanto em casa, quanto naescola. Em função dos resultados obtidos discute-se a importância da avaliação da funcionalidade eincapacidade de crianças com disfunção física a partir da interação entre os três componentes: funções eestruturas corporais, atividade e participação e fatores ambientais, que resulta no estado de saúde. Adetecção do estado de saúde de pré-escolares em processo de inclusão se destaca como importanteferramenta para estimular cuidados direcionados e proporcionar melhores resultados na inclusão escolar.Por fim, do ponto de vista metodológico o IAFII se mostrou adequado para a realização de estudosfuturos em maior escala.
