Hanseníase: conhecimentos e mudanças na vida das pessoas acometidas

Abstract: Hanses's disease is a millenary illness, characterized as a public health issue. This study aims to verify the knowledge of people with Hansen's disease about their problem and its treatment and point out possible changes in their lives as a consequence. We conducted interviews with people in treatment for multi-bacillary Hansen's disease in a Basic Health Unit of Sobral, Ceara State, in 2005. We realized that the knowledge about the disease is elementary, usually expressed by people's own experience, involving negative feelings. Some bearers showed to have appropriate knowledge according to the literature, acquired through the internet, books and information from friends and relatives. The main changes in their lives after the diagnosis was related to the use of medicines, as some people related improvement in their symptoms and others worsening, interfering in their daily activities.

[Health promotion in the religious scenario: opportunities for nursing care].

Abstract: This was a qualitative study of the documentary type carried out in the first half of 2008, and it aimed to describe the practices of health promotion developed in the religious scenario in a city in the countryside of Ceara, Brazil. Information were collected through audio-taped interviews with the priest in charge of the parish and the three coordinators of projects linked to the Catholic Church, selected by the identification of projects with the priest. The results show that promotion and health education are present in the activities developed by volunteers in the religious scenario. The church seeks to change attitudes and to promote the adoption of healthy behavior by individuals, through individual and collective actions. There is an urgent need to insert healthcare professionals in this scenario, strengthening it as a social support, gradually reducing the assistential activities and intensifying those aimed at health promotion with the support of nursing, in order to improve healthcare in this scenario.

Adolescência, cultura Emo e saúde: o olhar de adolescentes em Fortaleza-CE

Abstract: Among the urban tribes that emerged in the twenty-fi rst century are the ‘Emos’: a group preferring emotive music with an unusual style that underscores their identity. Objective: To understand the feelings, meanings and attitudes of ‘being Emo’ as perceived by a group of teenagers in Fortaleza, Northeast Brazil. Methods: Qualitative, descriptive and exploratory study conducted through semi-structured interviews with fi fteen self-denominated ‘Emos’ between 13 and 18 years old. These interviews were conducted in a public square in Fortaleza where ‘Emo’ youngsters congregate. Results: The fi ndings disclosed changes when young people adopted the ‘Emocore’ style, with respondents reporting discrimination by society due to intolerance of this style and dress, viewed as ‘weird’. It also became apparent that homosexuality is not likely in this group. Some factors still underpin vulnerability in adolescence, including early sexual experiences, ‘hooking up’ and drinking alcoholic beverages. However, they expressed their willingness and need to adopt preventive practices. Conclusion: This highlights the importance of the development of health education activities by healthcare practitioners through schools, social areas and / or healthcare institutions, so that young people can experience this human dimension safely and with quality.
