Objectives: To identify the prevalence of individuals with systemic arterial hypertension (SAH) and the access to and use of health services based on the 2019 National Health Survey (PNS). Study design: This is a cross-sectional study, with a quantitative approach, using data from the 2019 (PNS). For the analyses, only interviews with residents over 15 years of age were considered, totaling 21,315 individuals. It is worth noting that the percentages of hypertensive individuals were in relation to the total number of individuals according to the groups analyzed within the sociodemographic data of each variable, including only those who declared having hypertension. Variables from the general characteristics module of residents were used for sociodemographic data, and variables from the chronic diseases module (hypertension) and health insurance coverage to verify the prevalence of hypertension and the access to and use of health services. The outcome studied was hypertension obtained by the question: “Has a doctor ever diagnosed you with hypertension?”. The prevalence of hypertension in each group of the chosen variables was calculated together with their respective confidence intervals (95%). All analyses were performed in the statistical program with the aid of the PNSIBGE packages and analyzed in the survey package. Regarding the sociodemographic data of the study participants, there was a predominance of hypertension in female individuals (25.15%), elderly (54.99%), black (24.58%), widowed (55.30%), with a low level of education (32.38%), living in urban areas (22.83%), southeast region (24.64%) followed by the south region (23.33%), with an income between 1 and 3 minimum wages (24.78%) during the research period and unemployed individuals (29.97%). The results describe that access to and use of health services by people with hypertension occurs as follows: 59.47% regularly visit a doctor or health services. Among those who do not seek regular care, 38.69% claimed that their blood pressure was under control and 38.58% did not find it necessary. 95.27% of the interviewees received a prescription for hypertension medication; 59.15% did not obtain the medications through the public service and 54.29% paid for them out of their own pocket. Regarding the place of care, 45.80% were seen at the basic health units (BHU) and 28.78% at a private practice. In addition, 85.25% did not pay for the care, which was provided by the Brazilian Unified Health System (SUS) for 65.64% of them. Finally, 51.90% were seen by the same doctor as their previous consultation. Regarding the use of health insurance, it was found that 23.46% have a private health insurance plan, either from a company or a public agency. Another 32.45% stated that their main health insurance plan is from an institution that assists public servants (municipal, state or military). When asked about the quality of the health insurance plan, 29.77% rated it as poor. Conclusion: The results revealed that SAH has a significant prevalence among certain groups of the Brazilian population. Regarding access to and use of health services, there was a clear increase in demand for care at the BHU.

Interprofessional Education (IPE) stands out as a strategy that can promote a reformulation and regulation of the professional activity with a disposition for collaboration between different professional categories in the service. The aim was to understand the perception of students about training to work in the SUS and investigate experiences and experiences in training, from the perspective of interprofessionalism and collaborative practices in a team. This is an exploratory, descriptive study with a qualitative approach, carried out with students enrolled in the last period of the Nursing, Pharmacy, Dentistry, Physical Education, Physiotherapy and Social Work courses of two Public Education Institutions in northeastern Brazil. The focus group was used as a technique for collecting empirical data, which were transcribed and analyzed from the perspective of thematic content analysis. The study followed the ethical precepts set out in Resolution 466/2012 of the National Health Council, approved by the Ethics Committee of the Federal University of Paraíba under opinion number 3,222,362. The potential of supervised internships as learning scenarios for IPE was observed. Students reported that through teamwork it was possible to learn with, about each other and among themselves. The students highlighted weaknesses in training, which point to the need to institutionalize the EIP in the curricula, permanent education movement in health and teacher development. It is concluded that there are important gaps in training for the achievement of interprofessional training, and despite the potential learning spaces for the EIP, others must be intentionally created in the training path for learning with, about others and among themselves in the direction of production of care in the Unified Health System.

In this context, the Primary Health Care-PHC stands out, which best incorporated this model of work organization, proposed by the Family Health Strategy-ESF. It presents itself as a favorable space for collaborative work, thus enabling the development of studies on the subject. OBJECTIVE: In this context, this study has as general objective: To analyze the team atmosphere in the Family Health Strategy in a capital of Brazil, and as specific objectives: to draw a profile of professionals and the work of the Family Health Strategy; assess the climate of the team of workers in the Family Health Strategy; verify the factors associated with the scores of the Team Climate Scale-ECE. METHOD: This is a case study, with a quantitative nature, defining a Brazilian capital as a case-unit (João Pessoa-PB). The target population for the study were those with higher education in the FHS (dental surgeons, doctors and nurses) and community health workers. Data collection was performed by a trained team, which applied a structured questionnaire to the research subjects. Data were subjected to descriptive statistical analysis and the appropriate validation tests, chi-square and ANOVA were used. The research was approved by the Ethics and Research Committee of the Federal University of Paraíba. RESULTS: The results are presented in the form of two original articles, the first: WORKING IN THE FAMILY HEALTH STRATEGY IN A NORTHEAST BRAZILIAN CAPITAL deals with the professional profile and characteristics of teamwork, with a population mostly female, young man with a high degree of fixation on the FHS and professional satisfaction and with a predominance of individual and disjointed practices. In the second: TEAM WORK CLIMATE AND ITS ASSOCIATED FACTORS IN PRIMARY HEALTH CARE, the team climate was addressed through the ECE results, giving rise to a hierarchical block model on the factors that relate to the analyzed variables and ECE, pointing out that in the studied reality there is a satisfactory team atmosphere, but that elements related to the work process, satisfaction and professional achievement interfere positively and/or negatively with collaborative work. FINAL CONSIDERATIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS: In the PHC of João Pessoa/PB, there are advances and challenges that permeate the team climate and consequently the interprofessional collaboration, which are involved in the professional profile and work process of the teams, requiring investments in strategies that qualify the work and strengthen collaborative practices.

Incarcerated women, often marked by histories of violence, poverty, and low education levels, find themselves in a prison system that exacerbates their vulnerability. In addition to overcrowding and inadequate conditions, they face neglect regarding their basic needs, especially access to physical and mental health care. These circumstances not only compromise their quality of life but also reinforce cycles of social exclusion. In this context, understanding the reasons behind female incarceration and the health needs of these women becomes essential to support more inclusive and humanized public policies. Thus, this study seeks to answer the following question: What are the reasons for incarceration and the health needs of women deprived of liberty in a penitentiary in Paraíba? Objective: The main objective was to understand the reasons behind the incarceration and the health needs of women deprived of liberty in a penitentiary in Paraíba. Specific objectives included characterizing the sociodemographic profile of the participants, identifying their health needs, and exploring the social determinants that influenced their incarceration. Methodology: The research, with a qualitative, descriptive, and exploratory approach, was conducted with 23 women in closed regimes for at least six months. Data collection occurred between September 2023 and March 2024, using focus groups, participant observation, semi-structured interviews, and documentary research. The information was transcribed, organized into thematic categories, and analyzed according to Bardin's Content Analysis method and the framework of Basic Human Needs. Results and Discussion: The data revealed a predominantly young profile (30-35 years old), with incomplete primary education and a predominance of informal work before incarceration. Most participants reported a history of family violence, neglect, and emotional ruptures, often associated with involvement in drug trafficking for emotional or economic reasons. The physical and mental health of the participants was strongly affected by prison conditions, including insomnia, muscle pain, anxiety, and depression. Inadequate nutrition, precarious healthcare services, and limited psychological support exacerbated their suffering. Religiosity emerged as a coping strategy, while the lack of family support perpetuated feelings of abandonment. Final Considerations: The study concludes that the health and living conditions of women deprived of liberty reflect the structural inequalities of the Brazilian prison system. The urgent need for public policy reform is highlighted to ensure comprehensive care, reduce the harm caused by incarceration, and promote the humanization of care. The research contributes to broadening the understanding of these women's trajectories and supports the development of more inclusive and equitable strategies for prison health care.
