ABSTRACT
Objetivo: analisar as significâncias político-pedagógicas de duas vivências experimentadas ("Saúde bucal de gestantes e bebês" e "Saúde do homem") por estagiários de um curso de Odontologia em salas de espera de uma Unidade de Atenção Primária de Saúde (UAPS). Metodologia: estudo qualitativo transversalmente estruturado sob estratégia narrativo-descritiva e moldado à técnica argumentativa. Resultados: o "Estágio Supervisionado em Unidade de Atenção Primária I" foi didaticamente sistematizado em dois períodos, "Pré-intervenção" e "Intervenção". Do primeiro, se desvendaram três ações, a "Pactualização do enlace ensino-serviço-comunidade", a "Contextualização dos acadêmicos estagiários" e a "Estruturação e ambientalização das equipes de trabalho". Já o segundo foi guiado pela lógica pedagógica do instrumento "TPC" (Teorizar-Praticar-Criticar), onde todas as ações programadas seguiram a lógica ativa do planejamento estratégico, ou seja, contextualizadas às realidades do cenário de prática, ou seja, salas de espera da Unidade de Atenção Primária de Saúde do bairro JK do município de Governador Valadares, MG. Conclusão: das experimentações vivenciadas algumas inferências merecem destaque: a concepção pedagógica de estratégias práticas de ensino pautadas na articulação ensino-serviço-comunidade; a escuta na identificação dos problemas/demandas a serem enfrentadas pela equipe estagiária; o reconhecimento do potencial dos ambientes de espera para a implantação de ações educativas; a importância de disseminar os aprendizados advindos de experimentações práticas de estágios.
Objective: to analyze the political-pedagogical significance of two experienced experiences ("Oral Health of Pregnant Women and Babies" and "Men's Health") by trainees of a Dentistry course in waiting rooms of a Primary Health Care Unit. Methodology: qualitative study transversally structured under a narrative-descriptive strategy and molded to the argumentative technique. Results: The "Supervised Internship in Primary Care Unit I" was systematized in two periods, "Pre-intervention" and "Intervention". From the first, three actions were unveiled, the "Pactualization of the teaching-service-community link", the "Contextualization of trainee academics" and the "Structuring and environmentalization of work teams". The second one was guided by the pedagogical logic of the instrument "TPC" (Theorizar-Praticar-Criticar), where all the actions programmed followed the active logic of strategic planning, that is, contextualized to the realities of the practice scenario, expects the Primary Health Care Unit of the JK district of the municipality of Governador Valadares, MG. Conclusion: from the weightings listed some inferences deserve to be highlighted: the pedagogical conception of practical teaching strategies based on the teaching-service-community articulation; listening in the identification of problems / demands to be faced by the trainee team; the recognition of the potential of waiting environments for the implementation of educational actions; the importance of disseminating the learning that comes from practical experimentation of internships.

Solid waste produced by modern society, together with lack of basic sanitation and poor hygiene practices result in risks to public health. 46 workers from the cities of Pelotas, Canguçu, Morro Redondo, Rio Grande and Capão do Leão were evaluated by parasitological examination of two fecal samples by Ritchie, Hoffman, Pons and Janer- HPJ techniques and Sheather method as well as a consented interview. 47.8% (22/46) of the examined individuals were parasitized, with no significant difference between both groups (garbage dump and recycling volunteers). Most of the samples evaluated presented forms of helminths (68.2%) while protozoa were found in 31.8% of the samples. Helminths found, and their respective prevalence were: Ascaris lumbricoides (31.8%), Ascaris lumbricoides/Trichuris trichiura (18.2%), Trichuris trichiura (9.1%), Taenia sp (4.6%) and Trichuris trichiura/Ancylostomids (4.6%). Protozoa were: Giardia intestinalis (13, 6%), Entamoeba spp. (9.1%) and Endolimax nana (9.1%). Monoparasitism was observed in 77.3% of the cases. Most of the population consisted of women, 21-40 years of age, low educational level and monthly income less than one minimum wage. The majority of the workers did not use protective equipment. Multivariate analysis revealed that infection from parasites in scavengers who lived near open sewers was 6.65 times higher (p = 0.0065) than in the other workers. In the localities studied, our results showed that the risk of acquiring parasitic infections was related to poor sanitation and the lack of sewerage systems; and not actually due to handling these types of waste. The parasitological indices found are similar to those described previously in other parts of the country
