Resistance rates among Staphylococcus sp. The isolates from ICU patients presented resistance patterns higher than those from UI. It suggests that resistance, among gram-positive and gram-negative bacilli, is common and significant in hospital studied. The analysis of data demonstrated the presence of high resistance rates in most of the bacteria studied.

In addition, quality controlled strains were utilized, routinely, to ensure accurate performance of the assays. At microbiologic laboratory, standard methods were used for identification and susceptibility testing. This study analyzed the prevalence and resistance rates of the main microorganisms isolated of biologic materials from patients in Intensive Care Unit (ICU) and Non – Intensive Care Unit (N-ICU) at Brazilian Air Force Central Hospital (HCA), during 2005. da Silva Coimbra Filho, Nádia Cristina de LimaĪbstract: Antimicrobial resistance among bacterial pathogens is a global problem, but in Brazil data are sparse. Marcus Vinicius da Silva Coimbra, Marcus V. STUDY OF PREVALENCE AND MICROBIAL RESISTANCE RATES AT A PUBLIC HOSPITAL IN RIO DE JANEIRO CITY The Ordinance nº 120 may contribute to the control and monitoring of actions in healt h facilities, because it establishes criteria that depend on the integration of different areas. The study showed that three Units have achieved the desired profile for accreditation/qualification. As the hospitals were suited to the requirements of Ordinance nº 120, the documents were sent to the accreditation/qualification. The information was compiled into a database and recorded in the form of report to the managers. Meetings were scheduled with the various Regional Health for clarification of pending accreditation. This was a descriptive study conducted from April to July 2012 based on information from the public hospitals of the Federal District and technical documents / records.

The objective of this study was to describe the current situation of public service of Federal District in actions of accreditation in Nutritional Therapy for High Complexity. The public hospitals of the Federal District find difficulties to qualify and subsequently accredited them. Among them are included those related to highly complex nutritional therapy (enteral and parenteral).

The Ordinance SAS / MS nº 120, April 14, 2009, gave new standards for hospitals providing services of the Unified Health System. The identification of the determinants of eating behavior along with the assessment of the nutritional status and the social conditions of elderly individuals are important factors for the improvement of the quality of life and the promotion of healthy aging.ĪCCREDITATION IN NUTRITION THERAPY FOR HIGH COMPLEXITY OF PUBLIC HOSPITALS IN FEDERAL DISTRICT: CURRENT SITUATIONĪdriana Haack, Alessandra Cedro da Silva Santos, Wilma Maria Coelho Araújo, Renata Costa Fortes.Ībstract: The actions considered of medium and high outpatient and hospital complexity are to the managers an important cast of responsibility for ensuring the resolvability and integrality of assistance to citizens. We concluded that food consumption, represented by the quantity and quality of food, is affected by the income, the social interactions, and the mood of the elderly, as well as by physiological and physiopathological aspects. The article shows that the eating habits of the elderly are influenced by individual, cultural, and social factors that bear directly on the access, choice, and consumption of food. The study also describes the biological, psychological, and social factors that determine the eating habits and the relationship between the nutritional status and the social conditions and their impacts on the health of the elderly. Concluímos que o consumo de alimentos, representado pela quantidade e qualidade dos alimentos, é afetado pela renda, pelas interações sociais e pelo humor do idoso, bem como pelos aspectos fisiológicos e fisiopatológicos.ĪGING AND QUALITY OF LIFE – A FOOD AND NUTRITIONAL APPROACHĪbstract: The aim of this literature review was to show the relationship between nutrition, health, and the concept of quality of life in aging. O artigo mostra que os hábitos alimentares dos idosos são influenciados por fatores individuais, culturais e sociais que afetam diretamente o acesso, a escolha e o consumo de alimentos. O estudo também descreve os fatores biológicos, psicológicos e sociais que determinam os hábitos alimentares e a relação entre o estado nutricional e as condições sociais e seus impactos na saúde do idoso. Resumo: O objetivo desta revisão de literatura foi mostrar a relação entre nutrição, saúde e o conceito de qualidade de vida no envelhecimento.
