Abstract:

Objective To study the profile of hospitalizations due to COVID-19 in the Unified Health System (SUS) in Brazil and to identify factors associated with in-hospital mortality related to the disease. Methods Cross-sectional study, based on secondary data on COVID-19 hospitalizations that occurred in the SUS between late February through June. Patients aged 18 years or older with primary or secondary diagnoses indicative of COVID-19 were included. Bivariate analyses were performed and generalized linear mixed models (GLMM) were estimated with random effects intercept. The modeling followed three

Abstract:

Technological incorporation is a central topic among the concerns regarding health care systems. This paper discusses the role of technology dynamics in health systems' cost increases, suggesting two different approaches - a 'pragmatic-economic' approach and a 'rational-defensive' approach - as guidelines to explain the reasons for this centrality. The paper shows how judicialization results from this situation and discusses two doctrinal views - 'reserve for contingencies' and 'rational use' - as the views that usually guide the debates in the courts and among health policy makers.

The scope of this article is to describe hospitalizations resulting from intentionally self-inflicted injuries attended by the Unified Health System (SUS) for the 2002-2013 period. It is an observational, descriptive study of hospital admissions in the SUS arising from intentionally self-inflicted injuries in Brazil between 2002 and 2013. A decreasing trend was observed for the rate of hospitalization in individuals aged 10 and above. Hospitalizations were concentrated between 30 to 49 years of age for men, while for women it was between 20 to 29 years of age. The highest rates of hospitalizat

INTRODUCTION:The “Judicialization of health” is a judicial option, provided by the Brazilian constitution, which aims to guarantee the access of the population to healthcare products or services to which they were denied or that were otherwise unavailable on the Unified Health System (SUS) (1).

Considering the progressive impact of the judicialization on the budget and the lack of real-world evidence on the subject, the objective was to describe the judicialization profile of physiotherapeutic devices in the city of Rio de Janeiro and to est

A serious game is a media based on the narrative of a game focused on learning. The narrative of a game brings elements and mechanics that motivate the participation and engagement of the players. This is because games are a constant in human development as they formalize cultural activities with social function, being full of meanings. Moreover, the possibilities found in the game narratives contribute to the construction of more participatory plots, since the player can act actively in the course of the story. The narrative and engagement of serious games are of prime importance to distance

ABSTRACT It is a fundamental requirement of governments that they allocate resources to public services among institutions or populations that are potential competitors for funding. In Brazil, a country with clear social inequalities, equitable allocation of resources in the Unified Health System (SUS) poses a particular challenge. The present study proposes an individual-level matrix model for allocating health resources in the SUS based on data from the National Health Survey (PNS) 2013. This model is founded on a matrix of the following variables: age, sex, education, employment and income

Considera que o SUS tem sido atingido por ações administrativas comprometidas com a gestão capitalista, o que inviabiliza sua plena implementação. Destaca que o acesso universal enfrenta problemas como a dicotomia entre as ações curativas e as ações preventivas, e que as alterações na Lei Orgânica da Saúde e na Constituição de 1988, para introdução do capital estrangeiro, promovem atrasos que fazem com que o sistema seja derrotado, inclusive em seu sentido simbólico.
