Caracterização da funcionalidade familiar de idosos na Saúde da Família: um estudo transversal / Characterization of the family functionality of the elderly in Family Health: a cross- sectional study

Introdução: A funcionalidade familiar visa verificar a existência ou ausência da harmônica nas interações familiares em que os idosos estão envolvidos, pois as famílias são responsabilizadas em prestar cuidados junto à Saúde da Família promovendo o envelhecimento saudável. Objetivo: Caracterizar a funcionalidade familiar dos idosos atendidos na Estratégia Saúde da Família. Métodos: Trata-se de um estudo transversal com abordagem quantitativa, realizado no Centro de Saúde (CS) no período de setembro de 2018 a novembro de 2019, situado na cidade de São Luís/MA. A população do estudo foi composta por idosos cadastrados no CS. Sendo avaliadas as seguintes variáveis sociodemográficas e clínicas e o instrumento para avaliar a funcionalidade familiar - APGAR Familiar com as dimensões: adaptação, companheirismo, desenvolvimento, afetividade e capacidade resolutiva. Resultados: Foram entrevistados 148 idosos, o sexo feminino predominou (64,9%), cor parda (64,2%), casados (46%), com arranjo familiar monoparental (37,2%), boa funcionalidade familiar (91,2%) e a categoria desenvolvimento destacou-se (83,1%). Conclusão: A funcionalidade familiar é um fenômeno complexo, apesar disso foi possível constatar boa funcionalidade, com ponto forte o incentivo das famílias na autonomia dos idosos.

Introduction: Family functionality aims to verify the existence or absence of harmonics in family interactions in which the elderly are involved, because families are responsible for providing care with the Family Health in order to promote healthy aging. Objective To characterize family functionality of the elderly assisted in the Family Health Strategy. Methods: This is a cross-sectional study with a quantitative approach, carried out at the Health Center (CS) from September 2018 to November 2019, located in the city of São Luís/MA. The study population were the elderly registered in (CS). The following sociodemographic and clinical variables and the instrument to assess family functionality were evaluated - APGAR Familiar with the following dimensions: adaptation, companionship, development, affectivity and resolving capacity. Results One hundred and forty-eight elderly people were interviewed, mostly females (64.9%), brown (64.2%), married (46%), with a single-parent family arrangement (37.2%), good family functionality (91.2 %) and the development category stood out (83.1%). Conclusion: Family functionality is a complex phenomenon, although it was possible to verify good functionality, with a strong point being the encouragement of families in the autonomy of the elderly.

Computational investigation on the host-guest inclusion process of norfloxacin into ß-cyclodextrin.

A theoretical (1)H NMR spectroscopy and thermodynamic analysis of the host-guest inclusion process involving the norfloxacin (NFX) into ß-cyclodextrin (ß-CD) was carried out. DFT structure and stabilization energies were obtained in both gas and aqueous phases. We could establish that the complex formation is enthalpy driven, and the hydrogen bonds established between NFX and ß-CD play a major role in the complex stabilization. Besides, a theoretical (1)H NMR analysis has shown to be a supplementary proceeding to predict appropriately the inclusion mode of norfloxacin molecule into the ß-CD. In this work, a theoretical study of the NFX@ß-CD complex is reported for the first time, seeking a deep understanding of topology and thermodynamics of the inclusion complex formation. Graphical Abstract Topology, thermodynamic and (1)H NMR analysis of NFX@ß-CD host-guest complexes.
