ABSTRACT Chagas disease (CD) is a neglected disease caused by the protozoan Trypanosoma cruzi. It has high morbidity and mortality rates and mainly affects socially vulnerable populations. This is a cross-sectional study, with retrospective and prospective data collection. Using questionnaires applied to environmental surveillance coordinators, we characterized the status of CD surveillance activities in municipalities endemic for the disease in Northern Minas Gerais State (MG) and Jequitinhonha Valley (Vale do Jequitinhonha). Moreover, we spatialized the vulnerability index for chronic CD in the study area. The population consisted of 22 environmental surveillance coordinators, active in 2020, from Northern MG and Jequitinhonha Valley, 21 municipalities included in the SaMi-Trop research project, and Montes Claros municipality. After applying the questionnaires to the coordinators, a descriptive analysis of the variables was performed. To characterize the active municipalities, the explanatory variables collected in the questionnaire were compared with the dichotomous variable. Bivariate descriptive analysis was performed. Finally, geoprocessing techniques were used to spatialize the data and prepare maps. Regarding the team of endemic combat agents (ECA), 90.9% reported the lack of a specific team for CD vector control actions. Of the 22 municipalities participating in this study, nine were active (41.1%). Only 25% (n=2) of active municipalities (9% of the municipalities studied) met the target of visiting 50% of households per year. Finally, 81.1% of the coordinators stated that in their municipality, they developed actions linked to primary health care (PHC). The implementation of CD surveillance activities weakened in the endemic region. Few municipalities have a surveillance team, with low regularity of active surveillance and noncompliance with the program’s goal. The results suggest insufficient recording of activities in the information system, considering that there are municipalities that report performing the activities, but no production record was observed in the system.

Abstract Objectives: to analyze the level of anxiety in high risk pregnant women admitted in the maternity ward of the Hospital Universitário Lauro Wanderley (HULW) of the Federal University of Paraíba. Methods: an observational, descriptive, cross-sectional study of quantitative character, with a sample composed of 100 pregnant women diagnosed as high risk interned at HULW. Data collection was performed using the Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI), used to assess the level of anxiety the patient is in and the existing symptoms. For the statistical analysis, the Mann Whitney, Kruskal Wallis and Spearman correlation tests were used, considering p<0.05. Results: it was observed that 68% of pregnant women have moderate to high anxiety, with heat, fear of the worst happening, faster heartbeat, emotional instability and nervousness listed as the most common symptoms. The presence of an anxious condition was independent of maternal age, marital status or parity, however the gestational trimester, history of abortions and length of hospital stay were identified as risk factors for anxiety. Conclusion: pregnant women with a high risk diagnosis hospitalized at HULW presented anxiety, thus identifying the need for a multiprofessional support network, such as family assistance.

Resumo Objetivos: analisar o nível de ansiedade em gestantes de alto risco internadas na maternidade do Hospital Universitário Lauro Wanderley (HULW) da Universidade Federal da Paraíba. Métodos: estudo observacional, descritivo, transversal de caráter quantitativo, com amostra composta por 100 gestantes com diagnóstico de alto risco internadas no HULW. A coleta de dados foi realizada por meio do Inventário de Ansiedade de Beck (BAI), utilizado para avaliar o nível de ansiedade do paciente e os sintomas existentes. Para a análise estatística, foram utilizados os testes de Mann Whitney, Kruskal Wallis e correlação de Spearman, considerando p<0,05. Resultados: observou-se que 68% das gestantes apresentam ansiedade moderada a alta, com calor, medo do pior acontecer, batimento cardíaco acelerado, instabilidade emocional e nervosismo listados como os sintomas mais comuns. A presença de ansiedade foi independente da idade materna, estado civil ou paridade, porém o trimestre gestacional, história de aborto e tempo de internação foram identificados como fatores de risco para ansiedade. Conclusão: gestantes com diagnóstico de alto risco internadas no HULW apresentaram ansiedade, identificando-se a necessidade de uma rede de apoio multiprofssional, como o atendimento familiar.

ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate the physical conditions and presence of residues of toothbrushes used by mothers and their babies and mothers' knowledge about toothbrush care. Material and Methods This was a cross-sectional study comprising a convenience sample represented by 60 mother-baby pairs. The mothers answered a questionnaire to evaluate their knowledge of toothbrush care. A calibrated dentist performed a visual inspection of the toothbrushes. Statistical analysis was performed using the chi-square and Fisher’s exact tests, with a significance level of 5%. Results It was found that 82% of the mothers had never received instructions regarding the care of toothbrushes after use (p=0.024). Most of them believed that their toothbrushes (70%) and their children’s toothbrushes (88%) were in good condition to use (p=0.043). However, most mother’s toothbrushes presented an unacceptable deformity of the bristles (65%) and the presence of residues (60%). In addition, babies’ toothbrushes also presented unacceptable deformities of the bristles (52%) and residues (55%). There was an association between the lack of instructions received by the mother and the presence of deformity and residues on the mother’s toothbrush bristles (p=0.037 and p=0.003, respectively). Conclusion Most mothers had never received instructions regarding toothbrush care, which is reflected in the condition of their and their baby’s toothbrushes, which presented unacceptable physical conditions concerning deformation and presence of residues.

RESUMO As fronteiras do capital neoextrativista avançam sobre territórios de populações tradicionais, provocando conflitos socioambientais, agravando a crise civilizatória, ameaçando a sustentação da vida no planeta. A pedagogia do território, a práxis acadêmica no Núcleo Tramas, traz pistas para que os sujeitos da universidade incidam na assimetria de forças presente nos territórios em conflito ambiental. Duas experiências iluminam as reflexões deste ensaio. Na luta pela construção do seu território camponês, as vivências das comunidades de Apodi/RN anunciam a agroecologia como forma de resistir ao Projeto da Morte. Por sua vez, o Núcleo de Reflexões, Estudos e Experiências em Agroecologia e Justiça Ambiental revelam o protagonismo das mulheres na construção da agroecologia e na defesa de seus territórios. Sob a perspectiva decolonial, discutem-se as bases teórico-epistemológicas, que incitam metodologias insurgentes e fomentam o diálogo de saberes, ressignificando os sujeitos cognoscentes. A mediação entre as vozes dos povos do semiárido e o campo científico da saúde coletiva provoca a reflexão: quais são os recados desses povos para a academia? Enquanto ainda se buscam possibilidades, os camponeses já têm, há muito, anunciado a agroecologia como alternativa para produzir, existir harmonicamente na natureza, promover saúde e resistir aos efeitos da colonialidade.

ABSTRACT Neoextractive capitalism advances over territories of traditional populations. The consequence is the increase in environmental conflicts and the deepening of the civilization crisis threatening life on the planet. Pedagogia do território (territory pedagogy), as an academic practice in the Núcleo Tramas, presents possibilities for the university to contribute to the reduction of the existing inequality in the context of environmental conflicts. Two reports help to reflect on this essay. In the struggle for the construction of peasant territory, the communities in the city of Apodi present agroecology as a way to resist the Projeto da Morte (Death Project). In turn, the Center for Reflections, Studies, and Experiences in Agroecology and Environmental Justice reveals the action of women in the construction of agroecology and in the defense of their territories. Based on decolonial theories, we discuss our theoretical and epistemological bases, which encourage insurgent methodologies and foster the dialogue of different knowledges. The mediation between the voices of semi-arid territories and the scientific field of collective health leads us to think: what are the messages from these peoples to the academy? While we are looking for possibilities, peasants are announcing agroecology as an alternative to produce, live harmoniously with nature, promote health, and resist the effects of coloniality.

Resumo Este trabalho está inserido no contexto da atual agenda de reformas que envolve a Previdência Social no Brasil. O objetivo geral visou compreender, por meio da Teoria dos Múltiplos Fluxos, de John Kingdon (1984, 2003), como a Previdência tornou-se um elemento da Seguridade no âmbito das políticas públicas na Constituição Federal de 1988 (CF/88). Em termos metodológicos, a pesquisa é predominantemente documental e bibliográfica, com abordagem qualitativa e utilização da técnica de análise de conteúdo categorial de grade fechada. A análise dos fluxos (problemas, soluções, política) com a inserção da influência internacional como um fluxo analítico indicou que a Previdência Social enquanto um problema público da década de 1980 estava atrelada a fatores econômicos e de gestão. Quando esse problema tocou a agenda pública, distintas alternativas foram formuladas, incluindo a ideia de expansão da cobertura social por meio da criação da Seguridade Social.

Abstract This study considers the current agenda of reforms in the Brazilian pension system and aims to understand how the pension system became an element of social security in the 1988 Brazilian Federal Constitution. The methodology is qualitative, predominantly documentary and bibliographical. The research uses content analysis, determining the coding categories before the data analysis, based on John Kingdon’s (1984, 2003) multiple stream framework (problems, policies, and politics), including the. category “international influence.” The study showed that the pension system was a public problem tied to economic and management factors in the 1980s. When the problem entered the public agenda, different policies were formulated, including expanding social welfare through creating a social security system.

Resumo Objetivo Analisar a produção científica a respeito da suplementação de ácido fólico (AF) materno e sua relação com o transtorno do espectro autista (TEA). Fontes de Dados Realizamos buscas eletrônicas irrestritas nas bases de dados do banco virtual BIREME, Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde (VHL) e Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System Online (MEDLINE / PubMed). Seleção dos Estudos Incluímos os artigos publicados em inglês, espanhol e português, com o uso dos DeCS: autistic OR autism AND autism spectrum disorder AND folic acid, e com o uso dos Medical Subject Headings (MeSH, na sigla em inglês): autistic OR autism AND Autistic Spectrum Disorder AND folic acid “. Coleta de Dados A extração de dados foi realizada pelos revisores com um formulário de coleta de dados pré-estabelecido. Síntese dos Dados Foram usados os itens de relatório preferidos para protocolos de revisão sistemática e meta-análise (PRISMA-P) com base em uma lista de verificação com 27 itens e um fluxograma de 4 etapas. Resultados Foram encontrados 384 artigos pelas estratégias de busca, dos quais 17 eram elegíveis segundo os critérios pré-estabelecidos. Os principais achados da presente revisão apontam para a suplementação de AF materno no período de preconcepção e início da gravidez como efeito protetor em relação ao TEA, que deve ser indicada neste período como prevenção do problema. Conclusão De acordo com as pesquisas analisadas, mais estudos são necessários para conhecer seus efeitos sobre a gravidez, uma vez que o consumo excessivo de AF pode não ser inócuo.

Abstract Objective To analyze the scientific production regarding maternal folic acid (FA) supplementation and its relationship with autistic spectrum disorder (ASD). Data Sources We performed unrestricted electronic searches in the BIREME virtual bank, Virtual Health Library (VHL) and Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System Online (MEDLINE/PubMed) databases. Selection of Studies For sample selection, articles that met the proposed objectives were included, published in English, Spanish and Portuguese, the use of Health Sciences Descriptors (DeCS): autistic OR autism AND autism spectrum disorder AND folic acid, AND, with the use of the Medical Subject Headings (MeSH): autistic OR autism AND autistic spectrum disorder AND folic acid. Data Collection Data extraction was performed by the reviewers with a preestablished data collection formulary. Data Synthesis The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis Protocols (PRISMA-P) was used based on a checklist with 27 items and a 4-step flowchart. Results A total of 384 articles was found by the search strategies, of which 17 were eligible following the pre-established criteria. The main findings of the present review point to maternal FA supplementation in the pre-conception period and beginning of pregnancy as a protective effect in relation to ASD, which should be indicated in this period as prevention to the problem. Conclusion According to the research analyzed, more studies are necessary to know its effects on pregnancy, since the consumption of excessive FA may not be innocuous.

Abstract: En

Background: A population study is an important tool that can be used to understand the actual epidemiological scenario of the Covid-19 in different territories, identify its magnitude, understand its transmission dynamics, and its demographic, geographical, and social distribution. Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence and dynamics of SARS-CoV-2 infection in the population of two Brazilian cities during the pandemic first wave and subsequent socioeconomic and health effects. Materials & methods: This paper described the methodological procedures adopted and the prevalence of the SARS-CoV-2 infection in the population. A household survey was conducted between October and December 2020, in two historic cities of Brazil's mining region. Anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibody was detected using the Wondfo® rapid test. The face-to-face interview consisted of administration of a questionnaire containing registration data, sociodemographic and economic variables, living habits, general health condition, mental health, sleep habits, and eating and nutrition. Results: We evaluated 1,762 residents, of which 764 (43.4%) were in Mariana and 998 (56.6%) in Ouro Preto. For both cities, 51.9% of the interviewees were female, with a predominance of the age range 35 to 59 years old (47.2%). The prevalence of the SARS-CoV-2 infection was 5.5% in all cities, 6.2% in Ouro Preto, and 4.7% in Mariana. The prevalence was similar between cities (P>0.05). Conclusion: The study was effective in verifying the seroprevalence of infection by the virus and its findings will enable further analyses of the health conditions of the population related to social isolation and the risk of infection with SARS-CoV-2.

Method Multicenter, prospective cohort study, conducted in 17 pediatric intensive care units in five states in Brazil, from March to July 2020. Patients from 1 month to 19 years who met the MIS-C diagnostic criteria were included consecutively. Results Fifty-six patients were included, with the following conditions: Kawasaki-like disease (n = 26), incomplete Kawasaki disease (n = 16), acute cardiac dysfunction (n = 10), toxic shock syndrome (n = 3), and macrophage activation syndrome (n = 1). Median age was 6.2 years (IQR 2.4−10.3), 70% were boys, 59% were non-whites, 20% had comorbidities, 48% reported a contact with COVID-19 cases, and 55% had a recent SARS-CoV-2 infection confirmed by RT-PCR and/or serology. Gastrointestinal symptoms were present in 71%, shock symptoms in 59%, and severe respiratory symptoms in less than 20%. -Dimer was increased in 80% and cardiac dysfunction markers in more than 75%. Treatment included immunoglobulin (89%); corticosteroids, antibiotics, and enoxaparin in about 50%; and oseltamivir and antifungal therapy in less than 10%. Only 11% needed invasive mechanical ventilation, with a median duration of five days (IQR 5–6.5). The median length of PICU stay was six days (IQR 5–11), and one death occurred (1.8%). Conclusions Most characteristics of the present MIS-C patients were similar to that of other cohorts. The present results may contribute to a broader understanding of SARS-CoV-2 infection in children and its short-term consequences. Long-term multidisciplinary follow-up is needed, since it is not known whether these patients will have chronic cardiac impairment or other sequelae.

RESUMO Objetivo O estudo objetivou avaliar a associação entre omissão do desjejum, sobrepeso/obesidade, adiposidade abdominal e estilo de vida não saudável em adolescentes de baixa renda. Methods Este foi um estudo populacional com delineamento transversal, envolvendo 571 adolescentes de escolas públicas, entre 15 e 19 anos. O hábito do desjejum foi avaliado através de formulário que verificou a frequência semanal da realização dessa refeição, sendo considerado omissão do desjejum quando os adolescentes não o realizaram por pelo menos cinco dias na última semana. Variáveis sociodemográficas e de estilo de vida (sedentarismo, nível de atividade física e horas de sono) também foram analisadas. A classificação em sobrepeso/obesidade contemplou o índice de massa corporal acima do +1 escore-z, e definiu-se adiposidade abdominal quando a relação circunferência abdominal/estatura foi maior que 0,5. A associação entre a omissão do desjejum e as variáveis de estilo de vida foi avaliada através do teste do qui-quadrado e com os indicadores antropométricos por regressão logística multivariada Results O hábito de omitir o desjejum esteve presente em 31% dos adolescentes e apresentou associação com a inatividade física (p<0,001). Em relação aos indicadores antropométricos, a omissão do desjejum foi um fator independente para determinação da adiposidade abdominal, verificando-se uma chance 1,8 vezes maior de presença dessa condição entre os que omitiam o desjejum (p=0,037). Conclusions A omissão do desjejum foi frequente entre os estudantes avaliados e esteve associada à adiposidade abdominal, um fator de risco cardiometabólico, sendo fundamental a investigação e a intervenção precoce para a mudança desse comportamento.

ABSTRACT Objective To assess the association between breakfast omission, overweight/obesity, abdominal adiposity, and unhealthy lifestyle of low-income adolescents. Methods A cross-sectional population study involving 571 public school students aged between 15 and 19 years old. The habit of having breakfast was assessed using a form, checking the weekly frequency of a given meal and considered as breakfast omission when these adolescents did not have breakfast for at least 5 days in the past week. Sociodemographic and lifestyle variables (sedentarism, physical activity level, and sleep duration) were also assessed. Overweight/obesity was defined as a body mass index above a Z-score of +1, and the presence of abdominal adiposity was determined by a waist circumference/height ratio greater than 0.5. The association between breakfast omission and lifestyle variables was assessed using the chi-square test and a multivariate logistic regression of the anthropometric indicators. Results The omission of breakfast was found in 31% of the adolescents and was associated with physical inactivity (p<0.001). Regarding anthropometric indicators, breakfast omission was an independent factor for determining abdominal adiposity, with a 1.8 times greater chance of having this condition among those who omitted breakfast (p=0.037). Conclusions Omitting breakfast was frequent among the students assessed, and was associated with abdominal adiposity, a cardiometabolic risk factor. Investigation and early intervention are fundamental to change this behavior.

Resumo Objetivo analisar a lotação e distribuição da primeira turma de oficiais enfermeiros, ao término do Curso de Formação de Oficiais, com a patente de 2º Tenente, no Hospital Central da Polícia Militar do Estado do Rio de Janeiro, em 1995. Método estudo histórico em fontes documentais escritas e orais produzidas por meio de 19 entrevistas, sendo 18 oficiais enfermeiros e um civil. Os conceitos de poder simbólico e capital de Pierre Bourdieu consubstanciaram a análise dos achados. Resultados a classificação obtida no curso de formação de oficiais e a experiência profissional, embora com menor peso, foram preponderantes na distribuição nos setores do hospital. Considerações finais e implicações para prática os critérios de antiguidade da vida militar influenciaram na configuração da equipe de enfermagem no hospital militar. Destaca-se que a ocupação das chefias pelos oficiais enfermeiros foi determinada pelo capital incorporado no estágio probatório, o qual foi institucionalizado pela patente.

Abstract Objective to analyze the capacity and distribution of the first class of nurse officers, at the end of the Officer Training Course, with the rank of 2nd Lieutenant, at the Hospital Central da Polícia Militar of the State of Rio de Janeiro, in 1995. Method historical study in written and oral documentary sources produced through 19 interviews, of which 18 are nurse officers and one civilian. Pierre Bourdieu’s concepts of symbolic power and capital substantiated the analysis of the findings. Results the classification obtained in the training course for officers and professional experience, although with less weight, were preponderant for the distribution in the hospital sectors. Final considerations and implications for practice the criteria of seniority in military life influenced the configuration of the nursing team at the military hospital. It is noteworthy that the occupation of the heads by the nurse officers was determined by the capital incorporated in the probationary period, which was institutionalized by the patent.

ABSTRACT The objective of this study was to evaluate the accuracy of the following six body weight (BW) estimation methods in Campolina (CAM) horses: A - weight tape placed at three different positions on the animal’s thorax; B - Crevat and Quetelet’s formula; C - Hall’s formula; D - Hintz and Griffiths’s table; E - Santos’s table; and F - Cintra’s formula. A total of 380 CAM horses were separated according to sex, age class, and gestational stage and evaluated. To determine their accuracy, weights measured on a scale and weight estimates of the six methods were compared by paired t-test, mean prediction error (MPE), and coefficient of determination (R2), using R software. The predictive capacity of method F was lower in the 6-12 months age class, so this formula is not indicated. The BW was overestimated compared with the actual weight by methods A (with weight tape placed in position 3) and B and underestimated by method C. Methods D and E accurately estimated BW of CAM horses. Correction factors are required to accurately estimate BW in this breed using methods B and C. Method A with the weight tape placed in position 2 is the most accurate for predicting BW, including pregnant female horses, and can, therefore, be considered the most suitable method for estimating BW of CAM horses.

Objetivos: Identificar clusters de controlo da asma baseados no Teste de Controlo da Asma e Rinite Alérgica (CARAT) e comparar as características dos doentes nos diferentes clusters. Métodos: Adultos e adolescentes (≥13 anos) com asma persistente foram recrutados em 29 centros no contexto de 2 estudos observacionais do projeto INSPIRERS. Foram recolhidos dados relativos a características demográficas e clínicas, adesão ao inalador, crenças sobre a medicação, sintomas de ansiedade e depressão, qualidade de vida e controlo da asma (CARAT, >24 bom controlo). Foi efetuada uma análise hierárquica de clusters usando a pontuação total do CARAT (CARAT-T).Resultados: Foram analisados 410 doentes (68% adultos), com uma idade mediana (percentil 25-percentil 75) de 28 (16-46) anos. Foram identificados três clusters [média CARAT-T(min-max)]: cluster 1 [27(24-30)], cluster 2 [19(14-23)] e cluster 3 [10(2-13)]. Os doentes no cluster 1 (34%) apresentavam melhor controlo da asma, melhor qualidade de vida, maior adesão aos inaladores e usavam um único inalador. Os doentes nos clusters 2 (50%) e 3 (16%) tinham a asma não controlada, menor adesão aos inaladores, mais sintomas de ansiedade e depressão e mais de metade reportavam pelo menos uma exacerbação no último ano. Adicionalmente, os doentes no cluster 3 eram predominantemente mulheres, tinham mais consultas médicas não agendadas, apresentavam mais sintomas de ansiedade, percebiam uma maior necessidade dos inaladores, mas também uma maior preocupação associada ao seu uso. Não se verificaram diferenças na idade, índice de massa corporal, função pulmonar, hábitos tabágicos, hospitalizações ou tempo de seguimento pelo médico especialista. Conclusões: Um método não supervisionado baseado no CARAT-T, identificou 3 clusters de doentes com diferentes características clínicas. O cluster com melhor controlo apresenta um ponto de corte semelhante ao estabelecido no estudo de validação do CARAT. Este estudo sugere ainda a existência de um ponto de corte adicional para distinguir doença mais grave. Mais investigação é necessária para validar os clusters identificados

Aims: To identify distinct asthma control clusters based on Control of Allergic Rhinitis and Asthma Test (CARAT) and to compare patients’ characteristics among these clusters. Methods: Adults and adolescents (≥13 years) with persistent asthma were recruited at 29 Portuguese hospital outpatient clinics, in the context of two observational studies of the INSPIRERS project. Demographic and clinical characteristics, adherence to inhaled medication, beliefs about inhaled medication, anxiety and depression, quality of life, and asthma control (CARAT, >24 good control) were collected. Hierarchical cluster analysis was performed using CARAT total score (CARAT-T). Results: 410 patients (68% adults), with a median (percentile 25-percentile 75) age of 28 (16-46) years, were analysed. Three clusters were identified [mean CARAT-T (min-max)]: cluster 1 [27(24-30)], cluster 2 [19(14-23)] and cluster 3 [10(2-13)]. Patients in cluster 1 (34%) were characterised by better asthma control, better quality of life, higher inhaler adherence and use of a single inhaler. Patients in clusters 2 (50%) and 3 (16%) had uncontrolled asthma, lower inhaler adherence, more symptoms of anxiety and depression and more than half had at least one exacerbation in the previous year. Furthermore, patients in cluster 3 were predominantly female, had more unscheduled medical visits and more anxiety symptoms, perceived a higher necessity of their prescribed inhalers but also higher levels of concern about taking these inhalers. There were no differences in age, body mass index, lung function, smoking status, hospital admissions or specialist physician follow-up time among the three clusters. Conclusion: An unsupervised method based on CARAT-T, identified 3 clusters of patients with distinct, clinically meaningful characteristics. The cluster with better asthma control had a cut-off similar to the established in the validation study of CARAT and an additional cut-off seems to distinguish more severe disease. Further research is necessary to validate the asthma control clusters identified.

Resumo O objetivo deste estudo é discutir a reorganização do processo de trabalho do Agente Comunitário de Saúde (ACS) em decorrência da pandemia da Covid-19, considerando sua importância enquanto um elo de articulação entre a comunidade e os serviços de saúde. Foi realizada uma revisão de literatura nas bases de dados Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde, Scientific Electronic Library Online e Portal Brasileiro de Publicações Científicas em acesso aberto e revisão documental de notas técnicas e normativas das secretarias estaduais de saúde do Brasil. A análise baseou-se nas premissas da Atenção Primária à Saúde e nos eixos do trabalho do ACS, especialmente a competência cultural e a orientação comunitária, buscando discutir as mudanças introduzidas neste trabalho no que diz respeito aos seguintes aspectos: apoio às equipes de saúde, utilização da telessaúde e educação em saúde. Concluiu-se que a pandemia de Covid-19 demandou reorganização do processo de trabalho e dos fluxos assistenciais, e para que o ACS continue desenvolvendo suas atividades deve-se garantir condições dignas de trabalho, capacitação e educação permanente, evidenciando-se inclusive, a preocupação quanto à possível descontinuidade de outros cuidados necessários para garantir a atenção à saúde da população no território.

Abstract Abstract This study discusses the reorganization of the Community Health Workers (CHWs) work process as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic, considering its importance as a link between the community and the health services in the field of basic care. The literature review comes from the following databases: Virtual Health Library, Scientific Electronic Library Online, and the Brazilian Scientific Publications Portal databases in open access and document review of technical and normative notes from the Municipal Health Secretariats in Brazil. The analysis was based on the premises of Primary Health Care and on the axes of the CHW work, especially cultural competence and community orientation, aiming to discuss the changes introduced in this work regarding the following aspects: 1) health teams support, 2) use of telehealth, and 3) health education. This study concluded that the Covid-19 pandemic demanded reorganization of the work process and assistance flows in the field of basic care. In order for the CHW to continue developing their activities it is necessary to guarantee decent working conditions, training and continuing education, including the concern about the possible discontinuity of other care needed to ensure the population health care in the territory.
