Resumo: This is a descriptive-quantitative study with the objective of describing the epidemiological and socioeconomic profile of prostitutes working in the Fortaleza downtown area. Interviews were held with 81 prostitutes, in October 2005. Most of them were young women from other towns, single women with children, with frequent stories of abortions, low level of education, low monthly income associated with the occurrence of STD and not having any other occupation apart from prostitution. Also, they were new in this profession and the number of clients was associated with age. These results showed that the prostitutes researched are part of an underprivileged population with socio-economics and epidemiological factors that influence the behavior and adoption of safe practices. The results, therefore, showed the importance of healthy public politics directed at populations at risk, with health determinants which are incompatible with the quality of life.

En octubre de 2005 se entrevistaron 81 prostitutas. Se identificó que predominaban mujeres jóvenes de otras ciudades, mujeres solteras con hijos, historias frecuentes de abortos, bajo nivel de educación, bajo ingreso mensual asociado a casos de ETS y que no ejercían ninguna otra actividad aparte de la prostitución; práctica reciente de la profesión y número de clientes asociado a la edad. Ante tales resultados, se puede concluir que las prostitutas objeto de estudio integran parte de una población desfavorecida económicamente con factores socioeconómicos y epidemiólogos que influyen en sus comportamientos y en la adopción de prácticas seguras. Por lo tanto, los resultados resaltaron la importancia de políticas públicas saludables dirigidas a poblaciones de riesgo con determinantes de salud incompatibles con la calidad de la vida.Estudo descritivo quantitativo cujo objetivo foi caracterizar o perfil socioeconômico e epidemiológico de prostitutas atuantes no centro de Fortaleza. Como instrumento para a coleta de dados utilizou-se a entrevista com 81 prostitutas, em outubro de 2005. Identificou-se a prevalência de mulheres jovens provenientes de outras cidades, solteiras com filhos, com histórias freqüentes de abortos, baixo grau de escolaridade, baixa renda familiar mensal associada à ocorrência de DST e que não exerciam outra atividade além da prostituição. Ademais, eram recentes na prática dessa profissão e apresentavam número de clientes associado à idade. Diante desses resultados, concluiu-se que as prostitutas pesquisadas fazem parte de uma parcela populacional desfavorecida economicamente, com fatores socioeconômicos e epidemiológicos que influenciam o comportamento e a adoção de práticas seguras. Os resultados, portanto, evidenciaram a importância das políticas públicas saudáveis voltadas para as populações de risco com determinantes de saúde incompatíveis com a qualidade de vida.Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais2008-03-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersiontext/plainapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufmg.br/index.php/reme/article/view/50639REME-Revista Mineira de Enfermagem; Vol. 12 No. 1 (2008)REME-Revista Mineira de Enfermagem; Vol. 12 Núm. 1 (2008)REME-Revista Mineira de Enfermagem; v. 12 n. 1 (2008)2316-93891415-2762reponame:Reme (Online)instname:Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais (UFMG)instacron:UFMGporhttps://periodicos.ufmg.br/index.php/reme/article/view/50639/42450https://periodicos.ufmg.br/index.php/reme/article/view/50639/42451Copyright (c) 2008 Reme: Revista Mineira de Enfermageminfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessNicolau, Ana Izabel OliveiraAquino, Priscila de SouzaPinheiro, Ana Karina Bezerra2024-01-24T18:48:31Zoai:periodicos.ufmg.br:article/50639Revistaremeufmg@gmail.comPUBhttps://periodicos.ufmg.br/index.php/reme/oairemeufmg@gmail.com2316-93891415-2762opendoar:2024-01-24T18:48:31Reme (Online) - Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais (UFMG)false
