ABSTRACT

Resumo Cabo Verde é um dos Pequenos Estados Insulares em Desenvolvimento do mundo, com especificidades e desafios próprios. Independente há 43 anos, com meio milhão de habitantes, a formação dos seus médicos tem sido feita no exterior, incrementando a força de trabalho do país, mas não o suficiente, em número e diferenciação, para sustentar os desafios da saúde, nomeadamente a extensão da cobertura universal. Em 2015 as autoridades decidiram implantar a educação médica local, tornando necessário reformular a Política de Educação Médica enquanto política de educação e de saúde, envolvendo os vários atores, organizações e instituições. O objetivo deste artigo é analisar a percepção de vários informantes-chave sobre a implantação da educação médica em Cabo Verde e propor subsídios à reformulação da sua Política de Educação Médica. Um estudo qualitativo que resulta da análise de conteúdo de entrevistas e discussões em grupo, bem como de notícias na media cabo-verdiana, identificou elementos-chave da reformulação de políticas em termos de conteúdo, contexto, processos e principais atores envolvidos na reconsideração do curso de medicina. Os entrevistados consideraram essencial ter uma política de educação médica envolvente que oriente o desenvolvimento do curso e identifique os principais impulsionadores de sua implementação.


Abstract Cabo Verde is one of the world's Small Island Developing States, with its own specificities and challenges. Independent 43 years ago, with half a million inhabitants, the education of its physicians has been done abroad, increasing the country's workforce but not enough in number and differentiation to support the challenges of health care, namely the extension of universal coverage. In 2015 the authorities decided to implement local medical education, making it necessary to reformulate the Medical Education Policy as an education and health policy involving the many actors, organizations, and institutions. The objective of this article is to analyze the perception of several key informants of the Cabo Verdean society about the medical education in the country and to propose means to reformulate its Policy of Medical Education. A qualitative study that results from the content analysis of interviews and group discussions, as well as news in the Cabo Verdean media, identified key elements of policy reformulation in terms of content, context, processes and main actors involved in the reconsideration of the medical course. Respondents considered essential to have an engaging medical education policy to guide the development of the course and identifies the key drivers for its implementation.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: To analyse the medicines prescription, prescription filling, payment expenditure for medicines by ambulatory health service users (HSU) in 2006, and to evaluate its evolution in the last 12 years. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Using data from the National Health Surveys in 2006 three binary logistic regression models were constructed to identify the variables associated with the prescription rate, prescription filling and payment for medicines in 2006. The results of access to medicines were compared to the ones from previous National Health Services from 1994 and 2000. RESULTS: The type of health service provider was found to be the most important predictors of access to medicines. Although the proportion of HSU obtaining a prescription and paying for drugs has broadly stayed the same as in 1994, the percentage of HSU paying for their prescribed medicines decreased from 70 percent in 1994 to 42 percent at Ministry of Health institutions in 2006. CONCLUSION: The progress in prescription and population access to medicines has been uneven across health service providers.


OBJETIVO: Analizar la prescripción médica, surtimiento de recetas y gasto en medicamentos que tienen los usuarios del primer nivel de los servicios de salud (UPNS) en 2006 y evaluar su evolución en los últimos 12 años. MATERIAL Y MÉTODOS: Utilizando los datos de la Encuesta Nacional de Salud de 2006 se construyeron tres modelos de regresión logística para identificar los factores asociados con la prescripción, el surtimiento de medicamentos y el pago por medicamentos recetados. Se compararon los resultados del acceso a medicamentos con los de encuestas anteriores de 1994 y 2000. RESULTADOS: La variable más relevante para el acceso a medicamentos fue el tipo de institución donde se prestó atención. Aunque al nivel global la proporción de los UPNS que obtuvieron una prescripción y que pagaron por los medicamentos más o menos se mantuvo estable, el porcentaje de los UPNS que pagaron por los medicamentos en las instituciones de la Secretaría de Salud disminuyó de 70 a 42 por ciento entre 1994 y 2006. CONCLUSIÓN: El mejoramiento del acceso a medicamentos para usuarios de los servicios de salud ha sido desigual a través de las instituciones.
