Background: It is important to understand how consultation time relates to patient satisfaction, as these two variables have not been extensively studied together. Objective: To determine the correlation between consultation time and patient satisfaction in primary care settings in Mexico. Materials and methods: Cross-sectional, observational, and analytical study that included patients over 18 years old. Time was measured using a stopwatch, and satisfaction was assessed using the Patient Doctor Relationship Questionnaire (PDRQ-9). The correlation between both variables was analyzed using the Spearman test, and multiple linear regression was employed to associate satisfaction with the consultation. Results: A total of 115 participants were included. The average consultation duration was 12.1 minutes, and 74% of patients reported that the consultation time was adequate. A weak positive correlation (p < 0.001, r = 0.38) was found between actual consultation time and satisfaction. Multiple linear regression demonstrated that for every minute increase in consultation time, level of satisfaction increased in 0.04 units (p = 0.001, CI95%: 0.016-0.063). Conclusion: Most patients reported satisfaction with the duration of their medical consultation, and longer consultation times were associated with higher satisfaction levels. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Background: Describing the perception towards the online course on Primary Health Care (PHC) of the Institute of Health for Well-being (INSABI) will allow to establish improvement actions. Objective: Describe the factors that contribute to satisfaction with the PHC course offered online by INSABI. Material and methods: 620 records of the Health Education System for Well-being were studied. Satisfaction was determined using a Likert-type questionnaire with three dimensions: virtual environment, cognitive area, and measurement of learning. A deductive analysis of the open opinions was carried out. Results: 70% of the health personnel approved the course in less than a week, with an initial score of 5.41 ±1.9 points and final score of 7.8 ± 1.2. More than 65% had scores above the average in the three dimensions. Satisfaction with the virtual environment was 15.57 ± 3.4 points, and 15.73 ± 3.3 with the cognitive dimension. Age and gender were associated with dissatisfaction with the virtual environment and in the cognitive dimension, age was associated with dissatisfaction; 27.7% expressed negative comments, 28.5% related to course extension; 15.5% about the didactic techniques, 10.9% about the speakers and 10.4% about the final exam. Conclusions: The course generates significant learning, 62.4% of the students have a positive or neutral opinion. However, 27.8% expressed dissatisfaction, the majority related to the extension of the course. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This writing arises from the experience of community work carried out from the First Level of Care by the Mental Health Team of a Health Center together with a women belonging to a neighborhood in the capital of Salta -Argentina-. An experience that was born with the objective of accompanying the community in the construction of tools for health promotion and non-specific prevention collectively in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic and the multiple experiences of loss and social isolation. Given this context, group meeting and support spaces were set up at the Villa Soledad Health Center, initially calling from the Mental Health Team with Health Agents; space that was configured as a meeting between women and configured flexibly according to emergencies and both group and community movements that were mutually linked within the framework of the community intervention process from Public Health. We share and discuss some questions and reflections about the process, seeking to recover the words and feelings of its participants in relation to theoretical-practical conceptualizations from Community Psychology; in order to systematize certain axes of the experience and at the same time problematize about our work located in the public health system of the province of Salta -with its possibilities, difficulties and tensions.

En este artículo de opinión y análisis se describen las líneas de acción estratégicas para desarrollar sistemas de salud resilientes y al mismo tiempo promover la recuperación en la etapa posterior a la pandemia de COVID-19, a fin de mantener y proteger los logros de la salud pública. Asimismo, se presenta una contextualización de los desafíos y oportunidades en la Región de las Américas, y se ofrecen recomendaciones para su implementación. Urge impulsar el desarrollo de sistemas de salud resilientes a través de la implementación de cuatro líneas de acción definidas en la Estrategia adoptada por los Estados Miembros de la Organización Panamericana de la Salud en septiembre de 2021. La transformación de los sistemas de salud debe basarse en la adopción de un modelo integral de atención primaria de la salud, un enfoque priorizado sobre las funciones esenciales de salud pública, el fortalecimiento de las redes integrales de servicios de salud, y el aumento en el financiamiento público, sobre todo para el primer nivel de atención. La implementación de estas líneas de acción no solo busca consolidar la respuesta inmediata a las crisis, sino también enmarcarla en los esfuerzos de recuperación y desarrollo sostenible de los sistemas de salud, reduciendo sus vulnerabilidades estructurales y así poder estar mejor preparados para responder a futuras crisis.

Objetivo. Conocer la perspectiva de los pacientes en relación a la actual forma de obtener una cita en atención primaria de salud. Métodos. Se realizó una búsqueda de bibliografía en las bases de datos online en español y en inglés. Se buscó la fuente principal revisando las referencias bibliográfcas de las publicaciones. Resultados. Se encontró que el cambio a la virtualidad ha facilitado que los usuarios puedan acceder a una cita en atención primaria de salud, reduciendo el tiempo de espera y abriendo el camino a las atenciones no presenciales; el grado de satisfacción por parte de los usuarios se ha incrementado de manera positiva. Conclusiones. Las solicitudes telefónicas y virtuales llegaron para quedarse; estas no pretenden reemplazar a las solicitudes presenciales, pero son una herramienta necesaria para mejorar la calidad de atención de los usuarios

Foundation: arterial hypertension is the most common of all conditions internationally and one of the main risk factors that contributes to premature mortality. Objective: to describe the epidemiological behavior of arterial hypertension and some elements of the care process at the Ángel Arturo Aballi Polyclinic, in the Old Havana municipality, from September 2019 to May 2020. Method: a descriptive and cross-sectional study was carried out in 159 people aged 18 years and over classified as hypertensive, to whom a questionnaire was applied to explore sociodemographic aspects, personal history and others related to the care process. Three blood pressure measurements were made at different times. The results were expressed in absolute and relative frequency. Results: 62.3 % of hypertensive people were older than 60 years, 61.6 % female. The most frequent comorbidities were: diabetes mellitus with 21.4 % and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and asthma in 9.4 %. 54.7 % of these people did not feel the need for care in the last year and only 45.3 % were seen in a follow-up consultation. 81.8 % had not had their blood pressure measured for more than a year, 89.3 % had indicated drug treatment, 86.2 % were controlled and 74.6 % adhered to the treatment. Conclusions: the attention that these people received was not adequate; there were difficulties with dispensing, compliance with the program, in addition to a low perception of risk in these people.

El objetivo fue identificar los resultados de la investigación sobre gestión de centros de atención primaria de salud en la literatura científica, desde 2015 hasta 2020. Se trata de una Revisión Integradora de literatura en las bases de datos Biblioteca Virtual de Salud, PubMed, Scopus y Web of Science, con los descriptores: Gestión en Salud, Administración de los Servicios de Salud y Atención Primaria de Salud. Fueron incluidos trabajos que tratan del objetivo de esta investigación, publicados de 2015 hasta 2020, en cualquier idioma. Para análisis del material se utilizó el Análisis de Contenido. El corpus del trabajo está formado por 36 artículos. Resultaron siete categorías: caracterización de los profesionales, planeamiento del trabajo, gestión de cambios, gestión basada en el desempeño, democracia institucional, participación y control social, y formación. Se concluye que la literatura seleccionada indica que los encargados de la gestión de esos centros de salud presentan una baja cualificación técnica. A ello se suma una creciente influencia del mercado y del modelo de gestión empresarial sobre la administración de esos servicios, además de los contratos del sector público con proveedores privados que imponen desafíos a la participación social y a la atención de las necesidades locales de salud.

Resúmen La mortalidad en ninos menores de 5 anos continúa siendo un problema prioritario en la mayoría de los paises de la Región de las Américas. A pesar dei suceso de las principales campanas de asistencia pediatrica de la decada de 80, tales como los programas ampliados de vacunas, infecciones respiratorias agudas o enfermedades diarreicas agudas, los resultados aún no son satisfactorios. Buscando mejorar el impacto de estas intervenciones, durante la decada de 90 la Organización Panamericana de la Salud, Organización Mundial de la Saludo OPS, OMS y United Nations Children 's Fund ( UNICEF) desarrollaron la estratégia de A tención Integrada a las Enfermedades Prevalentes de la In - fancia (AIEPI) que pretende disminuir mas aún esta mortalidad con acciones preventivas y curativas que enfocan la atención dei nifzo como un todo, identificando rapidamente los ninos gravemente enfermos, racionaliza el uso de medicamentos y aprovecha la consulta para realizar prevención y promoción de salud, especialmente en el ámbito familiar y comunitario. Esta nueva estratégia incorpora una visión global dei proceso salud y enfermedad, con beneficios directos para el nino, su familia y su comunidad.

Este artículo presenta los resultados de una investigación cualitativa que indaga sobre la implementación de la ley de interrupción del embarazo que despenalizó el aborto en tres causales específicas en Chile en 2017 (Ley 21.030) y el rol que la atención primaria de salud (APS) en la Región Metropolitana de Chile. Se realizaron 19 entrevistas a personal de la salud de la APS y del nivel secundario de atención en la Región Metropolitana además de dos personas del Ministerio de Salud. El cambio de régimen de penalización total a uno de despenalización por causales exige capacitación a los equipos de salud e información a la población. Los hallazgos revelan que la falta de información y capacitación formal al personal sanitario constituye un obstáculo para el ejercicio de los derechos de las mujeres que otorga la ley, produciéndose un efecto cascada, en que las mujeres no cuentan con la información suficiente para ejercer sus derechos. A ello se suma, una disposición en la ley que produce confusión entre profesionales sobre publicidad e información sobre los servicios. Se analizan los resultados a partir de estándares normativos nacionales e internacionales respecto a la obligación de informar, y el derecho a ser informado en contexto de prestaciones sanitarias relativas al aborto.

El trabajo busca evaluar la accesibilidad geográfica a los médicos de cabecera por parte de las personas mayores en la Argentina afiliados al Instituto Nacional de Servicios Sociales para Jubilados y Pensionados (INSSJyP) en una ciudad intermedia de la Provincia de Buenos Aires (Bahía Blanca). Se calcularon medidas de accesibilidad geográfica entre afiliados y médicos, y, áreas de cobertura. Los afiliados se encuentran, en promedio, a 1000 metros del médico de cabecera más cercano y se evidencian áreas en las cuales los afiliados quedan muy alejados de la oferta. Asimismo, la distancia promedio al médico más próximo es mayor para los afiliados que viven en radios censales de menor nivel socioeconómico.

Resumo En este trabajo analizo las particularidades que adquiere la gestión cotidiana de política sanitaria en una ciudad de la Patagonia argentina, donde se evidencia una política focalizada y no explicitada sobre las mujeres migrantes provenientes de zonas rurales de Bolivia. A partir de una perspectiva de conocimiento etnográfica y la observación participante en diferentes espacios del sistema público de salud se evidencia el modo en que los equipos sanitarios identifican los factores de riesgo e instrumentan lógicas de seguimiento, intervención y control. En los encuentros entre las mujeres migrantes y las trabajadoras de salud se evidencian tensiones sobre las prácticas de salud en un contexto atravesado por múltiples formas de desigualdad. En algunas situaciones, las concepciones de riesgo emergen como una categoría dadora de derechos, en la que se evalúan prioridades para el acceso a la atención sanitaria según interpretación de las efectoras de salud. En este sentido analizo las estrategias de trabajadoras comunitarias en estos encuentros y en sus relaciones laborales, en las cuales deben responder con resultados evidenciables estadísticamente. Aquí las mujeres migrantes agencian modos de construir salud en contextos de desigualdad.

Objetivo: Describir y explorar, desde la perspectiva de los gestores y profesionales sanitarios, la atención ofrecida a los adolescentes con obesidad en el ámbito de la Atención Primaria de Salud. Método: Estudio de caso, realizado en un municipio del estado de Ceará-Brasil. Los datos se recogieron en 2022 mediante entrevistas semiestructuradas. Los datos se analizaron mediante el análisis de contenido de Bardin. Resultados: La atención a los adolescentes con obesidad está fragmentada, y cada profesional actúa según su propia decisión, ya que el municipio no utiliza protocolos para subvencionar la práctica asistencial. Se enumeraron las potencialidades asistenciales, siendo la principal el equipo multiprofesional. En cuanto a las dificultades, se destaca la búsqueda del servicio sanitario por parte del adolescente. Conclusión: Es necesario (re)organizar el modelo de atención a los adolescentes con obesidad en el municipio. Además, el estudio pone de manifiesto la necesidad de prestar más atención a la obesidad en la adolescencia y suscita reflexiones sobre la atención prestada a este adolescente.

Introducción: entre las causas más frecuentes de mortalidad se encuentran las enfermedades infecciosas, en particular en el tercer mundo. Y entre estas, están las hepatitis virales crónicas, las cuales aumentan su incidencia en Cuba. Objetivo: exponer elementos de un sistema de superación dirigido al desarrollo de los conocimientos en los miembros del Equipo Básico de Salud del Policlínico Docente José Martí de la provincia de Camagüey, Cuba, sobre la prevención de las hepatitis virales crónicas en la Atención Primaria de Salud. Método: se desarrolló una investigación participativa cuanticualitativa de carácter explicativo causal, mediante la ejecución del proyecto de investigación no asociado a programa Sistema de estrategias para la prevención de las hepatitis virales crónicas, desde la consulta provincial, ejecutado entre 2017 y 2022. El universo involucró 137 profesionales para una muestra de 68. Resultados: los profesionales adquirieron nuevas experiencias, reconocieron la necesidad de capacitación, así como la comprensión de su vínculo con los pacientes que padecen estas enfermedades para advertir el riesgo que corren al no acudir a los servicios de salud para ser diagnosticados y tener un seguimiento con los servicios de la Atención Primaria de Salud. Predominó el índice alto como calificación de las preguntas del instrumento de salida para todos los participantes. Conclusiones: el sistema favorece el desarrollo de los conocimientos sobre la prevención de las hepatitis virales crónicas del Equipo Básico de Salud objeto de estudio. Las acciones potencian la participación de los actores de la comunidad y sus sesiones de intercambio se distinguen por su carácter activo, dinámico y funcional, en pos de una mejor práctica asistencial, preventiva de las hepatitis virales crónicas en el nivel primario.
