The Salvador Primary Care Longitudinal Study of Child Development (CohortDICa) Following the Zika Epidemic
This article describes the Salvador Primary Care Longitudinal Study of Child Development (CohortDICa). The exposed group was defined by confirmation of Congenital Zika Syndrome (CZS) diagnosed through computed tomography, magnetic resonance or transfontanellar ultrasound. A random selection of the 169 exposed children led to a subgroup of 120 children who were paired with children from the Live Birth Information System, according to birthdate, re…

Hospitalizations of children due to primary health care sensitive conditions in Pernambuco State, Northeast Brazil
Admissions due to primary health care sensitive conditions from 1999 to 2009 among children < 5 years old were analyzed for municipalities in Pernambuco State, Brazil. Using data from the Brazilian Unified National Health System's Hospital Information System, a negative binomial regression was applied to estimate rate ratio (RR) and 95%CI for the effect on primary health care sensitive condition rates (admissions/10,000 inhabitants) of the Family…
Effect of a conditional cash transfer programme on childhood mortality
BACKGROUND: In the past 15 years, Brazil has undergone notable social and public health changes, including a large reduction in child mortality. The Bolsa Familia Programme (BFP) is a widespread conditional cash transfer programme, launched in 2003, which transfers cash to poor households (maximum income US$70 per person a month) when they comply with conditions related to health and education. Transfers range from $18 to $175 per month, dependin…
Impact of income inequality on life expectancy in a highly unequal developing country
BACKGROUND: Few studies have analysed the effects of income inequality on health in developing countries, particularly during economic growth, reduction of social disparities and reinforcement of the welfare and healthcare system. We evaluated the association between income inequality and life expectancy in Brazil, including the effect of social and health interventions, in the period 2000-2009. METHODS: A panel dataset was created for the 27 Bra…

Trends in Primary Health Care-sensitive Conditions in Brazil
BACKGROUND: This study describes trends in hospital admission rates for primary healthcare-sensitive conditions (PHCSC) in Brazil. OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the impact of increased primary healthcare availability through the implementation of the Family Health Program (FHP) on PHCSC admissions rates at the national, regional, and state-levels between 1999 and 2007. RESEARCH DESIGN: An ecologic panel data study was used and a fixed effects multivari…
Major Expansion Of Primary Care In Brazil Linked To Decline In Unnecessary Hospitalization
In 1994 Brazil launched what has since become the world's largest community-based primary health care program. Under the Family Health Program, teams consisting of at least one physician, one nurse, a medical assistant, and four to six trained community health agents deliver most of their services at community-based clinics. They also make regular home visits and conduct neighborhood health promotion activities. This study finds that during 1999-…
Impact of the Family Health Program on Infant Mortality in Brazilian Municipalities
Objectives. We evaluated the effects of the Family Health Program (FHP), a strategy for reorganization of primary health care at a nationwide level in Brazil, on infant mortality at a municipality level. Methods. We collected data on FHP coverage and infant mortality rates for 771 of 5561 Brazilian municipalities from 1996 to 2004. We performed a multivariable regression analysis for panel data with a negative binomial response by using fixed-eff…
Recent Positive Developments in the Brazilian Health System
The article presents the authors' views on Brazil's health system. They hope that child malnutrition will soon be eliminated due to the new income-transfer program. They remark that although political, financial, and organizational constraints have prevented full implementation of desired changes in the country's health system, many important advancements have occurred over the past 20 years. They note that there are still problems in health serv…
