ABSTRACT

In Fertility Centers, quality should be measured by how well the organization complies with pre-defined requirements, and by how quality policies are implemented and quality objectives achieved. Having a quality management system (QMS) is a mandatory requirement for IVF centers established in most countries with regulatory guidelines, including Brazil. Nevertheless, none of the regulatory directives specify what a QMS must have in detail or how it should be implemented and/or maintained. ISO 9001 is the most important and widespread international requirement for quality management. ISO 9001 standards are generic and applicable to all organizations in any economic sector, including IVF centers. In this review, we discuss how we implemented QMS according to ISO 9001 and what we achieved 5 years later. In brief, with ISO we defined our structure, policies, procedures, processes and resources needed to implement quality management. In addition, we determined the quality orientation of our center and the quality objectives and indicators used to guarantee that a high-quality service is provided. Once measuring progress became part of our daily routine, quantifying and evaluating the organization's success and how much improvement has been achieved was an inevitable result of our well-established QMS. Several lessons were learned throughout our quality journey, but foremost among them was the creation of an internal environment with unity of purpose and direction; this has in fact been the key to achieving the organization's goals.


Na clínica de reprodução humana, a qualidade deve ser medida pela maneira como a organização cumpre os requisitos pré-definidos, e pela forma como as políticas de qualidade são implementadas e os objetivos de qualidade alcançados. Ter um sistema de gestão da qualidade (SGQ) é um requisito obrigatório para centros de fertilização in vitro estabelecidos na maioria dos países com diretrizes regulatórias, incluindo o Brasil. No entanto, nenhuma das diretivas regulamentares especifica o que um SGQ deve ter em detalhe ou como ele deve ser implementado e/ou mantido. A norma ISO 9001 é a exigência internacional mais importante e adotada mundialmente para a gestão da qualidade. Os conceitos da norma ISO 9001 são genéricos e aplicáveis a todas as organizações em qualquer setor económico, incluindo as clínicas de fertilização in vitro (ou bancos de células e tecidos germinativos tipo 2, como denominados no Brasil pela Agência Nacional de Vigilância Sanitária). Neste artigo, discutimos como implementamos um SGQ de acordo com a norma ISO 9001 e o que conseguimos 5 anos mais tarde. Em suma, com a norma ISO definimos nossa estrutura, políticas, procedimentos, processos e recursos necessários para implementar a gestão da qualidade. Além disso, determinamos a orientação da qualidade do nosso centro além dos objetivos de qualidade e indicadores utilizados para garantir que um serviço de alta qualidade seja fornecido para nossos clientes. A partir do momento que a mensuração do progresso tornou-se parte da nossa rotina diária, quantificar e avaliar o sucesso da organização e os resultados atingidos passou a ser uma consequência inevitável de um SGQ bem estabelecido. Várias lições foram aprendidas ao longo de nossa jornada de qualidade, mas o mais importante foi a criação de um ambiente interno com unidade de propósito e direção, que se tornou peça chave para alcançar os objetivos da organização.

ABSTRACT

O objetivo deste estudo foi desenvolver um instrumento para avaliar a implantação da assistência em contracepção em serviços de saúde, bem como aplicá-lo nas 23 unidades básicas de saúde no Município de Maringá, Paraná, Brasil. Elaborou-se o modelo teórico-lógico, correspondente a uma "imagem-objetivo" do programa de planejamento familiar. Por meio da técnica Delphi e conferência de consenso, seis especialistas validaram a imagem-objetivo do programa, que contemplou três dimensões e 60 critérios de avaliação. Elaborou-se um instrumento para coleta de dados e uma planilha para avaliar o grau de implantação do programa de planejamento familiar, que constituíram o Questionário de Avaliação de Serviços de Saúde Reprodutiva (QASAR). A grande maioria das unidades básicas de saúde (91,3 por cento) recebeu a classificação "intermediária" na implantação do programa de planejamento familiar, 8,7 por cento foram categorizadas "incipientes" e nenhuma obteve escore para ser considerada "avançada". O grau de implantação "avançado" na dimensão estrutural contrastou com as dimensões organizacional e assistencial. O instrumento constitui ferramenta para avaliar programas de saúde reprodutiva, aplicável aos processos de planejamento e gestão dos serviços de saúde.


The aim of this study was to develop a tool to evaluate the implementation of a contraceptive program in health services and apply it to the 23 public health services in Maringá, Paraná State, Brazil. A theoretical-logical model was developed, corresponding to a "target image" for the family planning program. Using the Delphi technique and consensus conference, six experts validated the program's target image, which included three dimensions and 60 evaluation criteria. A data collection instrument was prepared, in addition to a spreadsheet to evaluate the degree of the family planning program's implementation, constituting the Questionnaire for the Evaluation of Reproductive Health Services. The vast majority of the primary health units (91.3 percent) received an "intermediate" score on implementation of the family planning program, while 8.7 percent were classified as "incipient" and none were scored as "advanced". The "advanced" degree of implementation in the structural dimension contrasted with the organizational and patient care dimensions. The instrument can be useful for evaluating reproductive health programs and is applicable to the health services planning and management processes.

ABSTRACT

En la sociedad chilena contemporánea, la adolescencia constituye un período fundamental en las biografías de las personas. En ellas se aprenden y consolidan muchas de las actuaciones, las competencias, las capacidades y habilidades que modelarán sus proyectos de vida, y que a la vez definirán su ejercicio de la ciudadanía y su construcción como sujeto de derechos.

ABSTRACT

Considering the high number of Afghan refugees in Zahedan and the important issue of their life style, the present study was carried out to determine knowledge, attitude and practice of Afghan Refugee women residing in Zahedan about family planning. A sample of 397 married women was interviewed at their homes. Statistical analysis was performed using Chi-square, t-student and Kruskal Wallis tests by SPSS. Our findings indicated that there existed low marriage and pregnancy age and high rate of pregnancy and illiteracy among them. Most Afghan refugee women had knowledge about oral contraceptives and the most common contraception used by them was oral and injectable contraception. Forty eight and sixth percent were using no contraception, for which, intention to have more children, being pregnant and husband's disagreement were mentioned as main reasons. Unwanted pregnancy was reported by 20.4% with improper use of contraception as its main reason. They believed that having son in the family [51.8%] and early marriage of daughters [57.8%] are necessary. There was a significant relationship between knowledge, attitude, practice with literacy, husband's literacy, ethnicity, and their religion [P < 0.001]. Iranian health system presents health services to refugee Afghan women similar to Iranian women. It is necessary to continue those services and to provide effective training based on their changing needs
