Abstract
OBJECTIVE Evaluate and compare the protagonism of Oral Health teams (OHt) in the teamwork process in Primary Healthcare (PHC) over five years and estimate the magnitude of disparities between Brazilian macro-regions. METHODS Ecological study that used secondary data extracted from the Sistema de Informação em Saúde para a Atenção Básica (SISAB - Health Information System for Primary Healthcare) from 2018 to 2022. Indicators were selected from a previously validated evaluative matrix, calculated from records in the Collective Activity Form on the degree of OHt's protagonism in team meetings and its degree of organization concerning the meeting agendas. A descriptive and amplitude analysis of the indicators' variation over time was carried out, and the disparity index was also calculated to estimate and compare the magnitude of differences between macro-regions in 2022. RESULTS In Brazil, between 3.06% and 4.04% of team meetings were led by OHt professionals. The Northeast and South regions had the highest (3.71% to 4.88%) and lowest proportions (1.21% to 2.48%), respectively. From 2018 to 2022, there was a reduction in the indicator of the "degree of protagonism of the OHt" in Brazil and macro-regions. The most frequent topics in meetings under OHt's responsibility were the work process (54.71% to 70.64%) and diagnosis and monitoring of the territory (33.49% to 54.48%). The most significant disparities between regions were observed for the indicator "degree of organization of the OHt concerning case discussion and singular therapeutic projects". CONCLUSIONS The protagonism of the OHt in the teamwork process in PHC is incipient and presents regional disparities, which challenges managers and OHt to break isolation and lack of integration, aiming to offer comprehensive and quality healthcare to the user of the Unified Health System (SUS).

Abstract
Introdução: O envelhecimento populacional brasileiro já repercute na Atenção Primária à Saúde. Objetivo: Avaliar a percepção dos idosos quanto ao acesso e à qualidade da atenção em Bambuí, Minas Gerais. Métodos: Esta pesquisa tem abordagem qualitativa. O modelo dos signos, significados e ações foi utilizado na coleta e análise dos dados. Foram realizadas entrevistas nos domicílios, cuja escolha baseou-se em critérios para garantir a heterogeneidade dos participantes. Resultados: A análise fundamentou-se na perspectiva êmica. Nela, emergiram elementos que compõem a percepção do usuário idoso acerca da implantação e da consolidação do Sistema Único de Saúde e da Estratégia Saúde da Família local na categoria ― Desafios da Atenção Primária à Saúde na percepção do usuário idoso. Observou-se na percepção dos idosos, o serviço público evoluiu para melhor, porém ainda persistem dificuldades de acesso e a insatisfação de alguns com a qualidade do serviço, o que os leva à busca pela atenção secundária, pela urgência e pela medicina privada. Conclusões: Os achados demonstram que na percepção dos idosos a implantação da Estratégia Saúde da Família foi positiva, porém a atenção primária em saúde ainda pode ser melhorada.

Abstract
Study objectives To assess the patient safety culture in Primary Health Care (PHC) setting after the transition to the Family Health Strategy (FHS) model in a Brazilian metropolitan area and compare the results between the categories of health care professionals. Methods A cross-sectional study including 246 workers from primary health care services in Federal District, Brazil. Data collection took place from October to December 2019 through the Medical Office Survey on Patient Safety Culture (MOSPSC) application. Patient safety culture was considered positive when the score was above 60%. For comparisons between the categories of health care professionals’, the ANOVA and Kruskal-Wallis test were used for composite percent positive scores, and Pearson’s chi-square or Fishers exact test for frequency and percentage of positive responses. Results The overall MOSPSC composite percent positive score was 49.9%. Among the 12 dimensions, only three showed a positive patient safety culture: Teamwork (73.1%), Organizational learning (62.9%), and Patient care tracking/follow-up (60.1%). The percentage of positive responses on overall quality assessment (78.1%) and overall patient safety assessment (78.0%) showed a positive evaluation. There was no significant difference in the composite percent positive score of overall MOSPSC (p = 0.135) and the percentage of positive responses on overall patient safety assessment (p = 0.156) between the categories of health care professionals. Overall quality assessment showed a significant difference between job roles (p < 0.001), in which nursing /health care technicians showed a significantly lower score than other job roles. Conclusion The patient safety culture assessment showed a weakness in the patient safety in the PHC services. The MOSPSC and nine of its dimensions presented a negative safety culture assessment, regardless of the high scores in the overall patient safety and quality assessments.

Abstract
Brazil and Turkey are among the few high-middle-income countries that explicitly chose to strengthen their primary health care (PHC) systems as the centerpiece of much broader health system reforms aiming to narrow inequities in access to care. This comparative case study reviews the organization of Brazil and Turkey's PHC systems to derive lessons that can apply to other countries that may consider reforming the organization of PHC systems as a way to address health inequities. The analysis uses the Flagship Framework to investigate how the organization of PHC delivery in Brazil and Turkey can lead to measurable improvements in access to care. It compares (1) the degree of decentralization in PHC service delivery responsibilities, (2) the use of multi-professional PHC teams, and (3) patient impanelment strategies. The comparative analysis offers three important lessons. First, changes in the organization of PHC systems can contribute to observable improvements in the level and distribution of health outcomes, but organizational strategies do not guarantee eliminating disparities in access. Second, PHC systems can operate in health systems with varying degrees of decentralization, but the level of decentralization may influence implementation. Third, relying on multi-professional PHC teams that serve geographically empaneled populations can improve equitable access to care, but course corrections may be needed to address evolving health demands.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES to analyze the knowledge and practices of Primary Health Care professionals about diabetic neuropathy through their social representations. METHODS a qualitative, descriptive study, anchored in the procedural aspect of the Theory of Social Representations. It was carried out in four Family Health Units in Belém-Pará, with 31 professionals from four health teams. Data were produced by individual semi-structured interviews, and the corpus was submitted to content analysis. RESULTS two thematic categories were defined, showing the participants' understanding and imagination about neuropathy, as well as the biopsychosocial repercussions of this complication in patients' daily lives. The multidisciplinary practices developed in the context of disease treatment/prevention and the consequences of this performance were also shown. FINAL CONSIDERATIONS professionals' representations are anchored in neuropathy occurrence due to the deficient standard of care for themselves by patients, which results in the team's surpassing care attitude as an alternative to illness' challenges.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Objective To develop, validate and analyse intra- and inter-raters’ agreement and reliability of a scale for the evaluation of food and nutrition education practices in primary health care. Methods Three theoretical references were used for the development of items with answers on a 4-point scale (not observed, partially/satisfactorily/fully observed): the Brazilian Dietary Guidelines, the Interprofessional Collaborative Practice and the Family Health Strategy as models for organizing primary health care. The scale was submitted for content and face panel validation and it was further reevaluated online. Thirty specialists used the scale for the rating of 4 videos produced for the study showing food and nutrition education practices in primary health care settings. Intra- and inter-raters agreement and reliability were analyzed by test at one time point and retest 30 days later. Results The scale initially included 72 items but was reduced to 17 items after content and face validation, together with a fill-out manual that was reviewed by experts. In the re-evaluation, all 17 items were maintained, and content adjustments were made in the manual. Thirty raters applied the scale to the videos in the test, and 28 in the retest. All videos obtained combined kappa values of >0.4. In the test-retest, 19 raters showed >80% agreement; in the inter-rater evaluation, 14 raters generated kappa values >0.75. Conclusion The scale underwent content and face validation and showed to be useful to diagnose the absence and the full addressing of the Brazilian Dietary Guidelines content with good intra- and inter-rater agreement and reliability in different settings of Primary Health Care.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To identify aspects that hinder or facilitate the work of nurses in primary health care when disclosing difficult news. METHOD Qualitative, descriptive and exploratory study addressing 15 nurses from ten primary health care units located in the south of Brazil. Data were collected from February to April 2017, using a semi-structured interview. Interviews were audio-recorded and analyzed based on discourse analysis. RESULTS The aspects that hinder communication include the demand for services; work organization; the characteristics of patients; and personal aspects. Facilitating aspects include privacy and being in the community. Also hindering or facilitating communication: the way the network functions and the staff; academic training; professional experience; personal aspects. CONCLUSION This topic is seldom addressed during academic training and this lack of preparedness is one of the main barriers hindering the disclosure of difficult news. Hence, it is essential that teaching institutions establish a discussion regarding this topic.

Abstract
Abstract Objective: To understand the experiences of adversity in the Primary Health Care and their implications for the meanings of the participant professionals' work. Methods: Single case study, of qualitative nature, with 62 professionals active in the Family Health Strategy, whose data were collected by means of semi-structured interview and comics technique and analyzed by the thematic content analysis, with aid of Atlas ti, version 7 software. Results: There emerged the categories: Experiences of adversities in the Family Health Strategy and Implications of the adversities for the meaning of the professionals' work. In these categories were pointed aspects related to inadequate conditions of work, to wage question, to excessive demands and interpersonal conflicts that provided negative implications for the meanings of the team's work, for satisfaction and usefulness of the work. Conclusion: it was possible to apprehend the experiences of adversities in the work environment and its implications on the meanings of the work that can impair the professionals' actions. Implications for practice: the study may subsidize the reflection on the strategies that enable the reduction of the adversities in the work environment, contributing to benefiting the worker's health and care of quality for the population.
