abstract: Due to the history of colonization, disruption of Indigenous life ways, and encroachment of external Western ideals and practices upon tribal peoples in New Mexico, the protection and preservation of tribal customs, values, traditions, and ways of thinking are critical to the continued existence of the tribes. It has taken many years for tribal communities, such as the 19 Pueblos of New Mexico, to get to where they find themselves today: In a paradoxical situation stemming from the fact that Pueblo people are told to pursue the iconic American Dream, which was not actually designed or intended for tribal peoples and that always seems to be just out of reach for many community members. Yet many of them do their best to emulate the capitalistic consumption and the Western way of life. What is troubling about this is that perhaps many of these people are starting to forget that it was the strength of their ancestors and their dreams that allowed Pueblo people to be here today. So, how do Pueblo people address this paradox? How do they begin to give newer generations, such as the youth, the tools to question and to assess future programs and the future of the tribal communities? Furthermore, what does such a process of preserving and reclaiming mean for future governance? Are these communities prepared to accept the outcomes? This compilation seeks to address these issues by examining a) the creation and delivery of Western medicine for American Indians in New Mexico and b) a discussion of Pueblo culture and belief systems. The exploration will include not only discussing health and health care concerns, but it will also engage the future considerations that tribal governments in New Mexico, specifically Pueblo Indian communities, must reflect on to ensure the preservation of the culture and values of Pueblo people. Finally, specific recommendations for action and discussion will be delivered in the form of a policy paper that is designed for tribal leadership and tribal administrative audiences and suggested for implementation. / Dissertation/Thesis / Doctoral Dissertation Social Justice and Human Rights 2015

In developing countries, like Brazil, technological advances related to health, have secured an increase in life expectancy with guarantee for additional years of life quality. Parallel to the increasing of the elderly number in population, it has shown a displacement in de incidence of TB cases for the age group corresponding to the elderly population. This study objected to analyze the perceptions and movements of elderly people affected by tuberculosis in relation to the actions and knowledge manifested before confirmation of diagnosis and the search for formal health system, in the city of João Pessoa (PB). This is a research of evaluate kind, which utilized secondary database, collected in the period from December 2010 to February 2011, by means of semi-directed interviews, conducted with seven elderly with TB. The method of analysis utilized for the treatment of information was the content analysis, in the thematic modality, which enabled the identification of two thematic units: suspecting TB and first measures taken by the elderly and care for elderly with TB before the diagnosis confirmation. The study revealed to the first unit, that the elderly related classic symptoms of the disease to health problems of low complexity. The simplified perception led them to a wrong move, since it, when searching health services for diagnostic elucidation, evidenced measures of self-care with self-medication, made through the use of medicinal plants, homemade remedies and allopathic medications. Perceptions and actions led to de delay in diagnosis of the disease, it obtained only by force of worsening symptoms. About the second thematic unit, the study revealed to exist fragilities in relation to the organization of health services in the search for respiratory symptoms, since this active search happens in a secondary way to home visits. The Community Health Agent, seen as the protagonist of health promotion, considered the link between health services and the community, was not identified as actor in suspected cases of disease in the subjects. The research has also showed that although existing the decentralization of actions to control the TB for the services of basic attention in health, the elderly affected by the disease do not move toward these services, addressing more complex levels to the gateway system of Health attention. The entrance door for the system for the elderly with TB is the reference hospital, which contradicts the logical of care organization that has the basic attention as ordinator of the health attention. It is emphasized the importance of family care as first support that the elderly have to reach when suspecting the disease, that the health teams should develop actions that consider not only the elderly with TB, but their family and the social reality in which they are in. Regarding the Community Health Agents, it is recommended actions directed to the qualifications of these professionals to better implementation of control actions of the disease and in the identification of symptoms in symptomatic respiratory. Therefore, it is expected that there is a bond formation between professionals and elderly with TB, in order to guarantee them access for the diagnosis of the disease through primary care, considered a gateway for formal health service. / Com prolongamento da vida, têm sido observadas mudanças do perfil de adoecimento da população e modificações nas demandas sociais. Nos países em desenvolvimento, como o Brasil, os avanços tecnológicos relacionados com a saúde têm garantido um aumento da expectativa de vida com garantia para os anos adicionais de qualidade de vida. Paralelo ao aumento do número de idosos na população, tem-se evidenciado um deslocamento da incidência de casos de TB para a faixa etária correspondente à população idosa. Este estudo objetivou analisar as percepções e movimentos de pessoas idosas acometidas por tuberculose em relação às ações e saberes manifestos antes da confirmação do diagnóstico e da procura do sistema formal de saúde, no município de João Pessoa (PB). Trata-se de uma pesquisa do tipo avaliativa de natureza qualitativa, que utilizou banco de dados secundários, levantado no período de dezembro de 2010 a fevereiro de 2011, por meio de um roteiro semidirigido de entrevista, realizado com sete idosos doentes de TB. O método de análise utilizado para o tratamento das informações foi a análise de conteúdo, na modalidade temática, que possibilitou a identificação de duas unidades temáticas: desconfiando de TB e primeiras providências tomadas pelos idosos e cuidado com o idoso de TB antes da confirmação diagnóstica. O estudo revelou, com relação à primeira unidade, que os idosos relacionavam sintomas clássicos da doença a problemas de saúde de menor complexidade. A percepção simplificada levava-os a um movimento equivocado, uma vez que, ao buscarem serviço de saúde para esclarecimento diagnóstico, envidavam medidas de autocuidado, como a automedicação, feita mediante o uso de plantas medicinais, remédios caseiros e medicações alopáticas. Percepções e ações levavam ao atraso do diagnóstico da doença, este obtido apenas pela força do agravamento dos sintomas. Sobre a segunda unidade temática, o estudo revelou existir fragilidades com relação à organização dos serviços de saúde na busca de sintomáticos respiratórios, uma vez que esta busca ativa acontece de forma secundária a visita domiciliar. O agente comunitário de saúde, visto como protagonista da promoção da saúde, considerado elo entre o serviço de saúde e a comunidade, não foi identificado como ator na suspeição dos casos da doença dos sujeitos. A pesquisa mostrou, ainda, que, apesar de existir a descentralização das ações de controle da TB para os serviços da atenção básica em saúde, os idosos acometidos pela doença não se movimentam em direção a esses serviços, dirigindo-se aos níveis mais complexos a rede de atenção em saúde. A porta de entrada no sistema para o idoso de TB é o hospital de referência, o que contraria a lógica da organização do cuidado, a qual tem a atenção básica como ordenadora da atenção à saúde. Ressalta-se a importância do cuidado familiar considerado como primeiro apoio que o idoso tem ao alcance das mãos ao desconfiar da doença. As equipes de saúde devem desenvolver ações que considerem não só o idoso doente de TB, mas sua família e a realidade social, na qual estão inseridos. No tocante à atuação dos agentes comunitários de saúde, recomendam-se ações voltadas à qualificação destes profissionais, para melhor execução das ações de controle da doença na identificação dos sintomas em sintomáticos respiratórios. Assim sendo, espera-se que haja formação de vínculo entre os profissionais e os idosos doentes de TB, de forma que garanta o acesso destes ao diagnóstico da doença por meio da atenção básica, considerada porta de entrada para o serviço formal de saúde.

O consumo sustentável é uma das principais manifestações de responsabilidade social do cidadão, visto ser este uma das dimensões necessárias para o desenvolvimento local sustentável. O presente estudo, de natureza descritiva, propõe-se a mensurar os comportamentos relativos ao consumo consciente e a percepção de responsabilidade social empresarial, tendo como objeto para estudo a cooperativa de serviços de saúde Unimed Nordeste RS. A pesquisa quantitativa foi realizada na cidade de Caxias do Sul, Brasil, tendo como amostra os clientes locais da Unimed. Foram utilizadas estatísticas descritivas, análise fatorial e análise de variância. Os resultados apontam que os respondentes ainda não praticam o consumo consciente. Contudo, atribuem significativo grau de importância às práticas relacionadas a este e à responsabilidade social. Foram identificados os fatores de Comportamento Socialmente Responsável do Consumidor (CSRC) da cooperativa e a variância destes com o perfil e características dos respondentes. A análise das descobertas da pesquisa leva em conta os aspectos socioculturais da região em estudo e procura, assim, construir relações entre os conceitos. / Submitted by Marcelo Teixeira (mvteixeira@ucs.br) on 2014-05-28T19:58:01Z No. of bitstreams: 1 Dissertacao Mirele Todero.pdf: 2028872 bytes, checksum: a0eb9f6bfe20bf9498d42dbb73973fa3 (MD5) / Made available in DSpace on 2014-05-28T19:58:01Z (GMT).

Vietnamese minority has been living in the territory of the Czech Republic already for several decades. It is discrete, flexible and has its closed community. It is clear, however, that it is not easy for Vietnamese to incorporate in society of other country. The reasons are a different culture and language barrier. All this is also valid in the environment such as medical facility which can have a stress effect on an appropriate individual. Several tens thousand Vietnamese have currently been living in our territory. Therefore there is a high probability that a citizen of Vietnamese nationality can become a client in any of Czech medical facilities. The aim of this work was to elaborate specialities of nursing care which members of Vietnamese minority wish to respect. Before the beginning of the research we defined 4 research questions. Research question No. 1: Do members of Vietnamese minority use health care in the Czech Republic? Research question No. 2: What specifics do members of Vietnamese minority have in connection with hospitalisation? Research question No. 3: How do members of Vietnamese minority understand situation when a member of their family becomes sick? Research question No. 4: What do members of Vietnamese minority expect from a nurse? We answered these questions in the research part in the qualitative form of research using the method of an interview. The interview contains in total 138 questions and as the base material for its composition served the conceptual models of M. Gordonová, M. Leiningerová and the model of J. Gigerová and R. Davidhizerová. It also contained a model situation which led the respondents to the imagination of themselves being a patient/client at hospital. The interview was fully anonymous and in Czech language. On the basis of the data obtained there were created case reports from which categorisation tables and diagrams with the most important research data were made. It was found out from the results that members of Vietnamese minority expect almost the same like most patients/clients using Czech health service. However, there are areas such as family or catering in which they have their specifics. If nurses know these areas they are able to provide a multicultural/trans-cultural care.

Trata-se de estudo seccional, cujo objetivo foi avaliar a adesão ao tratamento e o controle metabólico em pessoas com diabetes mellitus, em Passos, MG. A amostra foi constituída por 423 pessoas com diabetes mellitus tipo 2, cadastradas em 17 unidades de saúde da família, por meio da técnica de amostragem aleatória estratificada. A coleta de dados foi realizada por pesquisadores de campo, mediante entrevista dirigida, em domicílio, utilizando quatro instrumentos: questionário contendo variáveis sociodemográficas, clínicas e terapêuticas, medida de adesão aos tratamentos - MAT, questionário de frequência de consumo alimentar - QFCA e questionário internacional de atividade física - IPAQ. Para a análise, utilizou-se estatística descritiva e teste exato de Fisher para as associações. Os resultados mostraram que houve predomínio do sexo feminino, média de 62,4 anos, 4,3 anos de estudo e 3,2 salários mínimos. A maioria possuía menos de dez anos de diagnóstico, encontrava-se com excesso de peso; valores de circunferência abdominal acima do recomendado e valores alterados de pressão arterial. Quanto aos exames laboratoriais, com exceção do colesterol total, os resultados obtidos mostraram-se acima dos valores de normalidade e a média de HbA1c foi de 8,1%. Segundo a prevalência da adesão ao tratamento do DM, vê-se que 357 (84,4%) dos sujeitos apresentaram adesão ao tratamento medicamentoso, 248 (58,6%) à prática de atividade física e apenas 13 (3,1%) ao plano alimentar. Ao analisar, simultaneamente, os três elementos investigados, obteve-se que apenas 1,4% apresentou adesão total ao tratamento. No que se refere ao tratamento medicamentoso, para o controle do DM, a prevalência da adesão foi maior entre os homens (85,8%), nos sujeitos com idade superior a 60 anos (87,0%), escolaridade entre quatro e oito anos de estudo (85%) e tempo de doença maior ou igual a dez anos (86,9%). Quanto ao plano alimentar, as mulheres (3,2%), os sujeitos com idade inferior a 60 anos (4,3%), com mais de oito anos de estudo (6,5%), renda familiar menor que três salários mínimos (3,7%) e mais de dez anos de doença (4%) apresentaram maior prevalência à adesão ao tratamento. A prevalência da adesão à atividade física foi maior também entre as mulheres (61%), nas pessoas com idade inferior a 60 anos (59,3%), com menos de quatro anos de estudo (60,4%), com renda familiar inferior a três salários mínimos (59,6%) e com tempo de doença maior ou igual a dez anos (59,7%). Ao adotar o nível mínimo de significância de 5% (p-valor<0,05), não foi verificada diferença estatisticamente significativa entre as variáveis estudadas e a prevalência da adesão ao tratamento do DM, com exceção do colesterol total que apresentou associação estatisticamente significativa com a adesão ao plano alimentar (p=0,036), e os valores de hemoglobina glicada com a atividade física (p=0,006). Frente aos resultados obtidos, recomenda-se a implantação urgente de estratégias de educação efetiva no município de Passos, MG, com vistas à integralidade da atenção em diabetes, tendo como indicador de resultado a adesão dos usuários ao tratamento. / This sectional study aimed to evaluate treatment adherence and metabolic control in people with diabetes mellitus from the city of Passos, state of Minas Gerais, Brazil. Sample was comprised of 423 people with type 2 diabetes mellitus who were enrolled in 17 Family Health Units and were selected through stratified random sampling technique. Data collection was conducted by field researchers, through directed interviews at home, using four instruments: questionnaire containing sociodemographic, clinical and therapeutic variables; Measure of Treatment Adherence; Questionnaire of Food Consumption Frequency; and International Questionnaire of Physical Activity. Descriptive statistics and Fisher\'s exact test for associations were used for analysis. Results showed that subjects were predominantly female; aged an average of 62.4 years and 4.3 years of study; and received an average of 3.2 Brazilian minimum wages. Majority had less than ten years after diagnosis; were overweight; values for abdominal circumference above of recommended levels; and had altered values of blood pressure. With regard to laboratory tests, excepted regarding the total cholesterol, results showed abnormal values, and the average for HbA1c was of 8.1 %. Related to the prevalence of treatment adherence in patients with DM, 357 (84.4%) of them had adherence to drug treatment, 248 (58.6%) to physical activity and only 13 (3.1%) to diet. By analyzing simultaneously the three elements investigated, it was found that only 1.4% showed full adherence to DM treatment. Regarding drug treatment to control diabetes, the prevalence of adherence was higher for males (85.8%), for subjects aged over 60 years (87.0%), with educational level between four and eight years of study (85%), and disease duration greater than or equal to ten years (86.9%). Regarding diet, women (3.2%), subjects under the age of 60 years (4.3%), with more than eight years of study (6.5%), with family income less than three Brazilian minimum wages (3.7%) and more than ten years of disease (4%) had a higher prevalence of treatment adherence. Prevalence of adherence to physical activity was also higher among women (61%), in people aged less than 60 years (59.3%), with less than four years of study (60.4%), with family income less than three minimum wages (59.6%) , and with disease duration greater than or equal to ten years (59.7%). By adopting the minimum level of significance of 5% (p<0.05), there was no statistically significant difference between researched variables and prevalence of adherence to DM treatment, excepted regarding the total cholesterol which presented an associated statistically significant with adherence to diet (p=0.036) and glycated hemoglobin values with physical activity (p=0.006). The chance of subjects with the recommended value for cholesterol make adherence to diet is nearly five times the chance of people in poor lipid control. The chance of subjects with poor glycemic control make adherence to physical activity is almost twice the chance of those with adequate glycemic control. Considering results, urgent implementation of strategies for effective education in the city of Passos is recommend, being in view the comprehensive care in diabetes, with the result indicator users\' adherence to treatment.
