Resumo: | In Brazil different regions have inadequate water and sewage treatment facilities, which can be made worse by the installation of large enterprises. The perception of these populations about the scenario in which they live is of great relevance in this context, the present study has the objective of analyzing the socioenvironmental profile and the perception of the water quality and its relation to health damage by populations resident from the area of Belo Monte hydropower plant. A cross-sectional study was conducted with 268 residents of two cities in the interior of Pará-Brazil and the data were obtained from the application of a semi-structured questionnaire. The results showed that the interviewees had minimal education and were low income. Most interviewees reported having running water in their home. However, 63.1% of the interviewees considered the water provided as organoleptically altered and of poor quality. Of the interviewees, 92.5% stated that their water is mainly from wells; 94.8% perceived a relationship between decreasing water quality and increasing health problems. Of these, 85.2% related to the decrease in water quality with renal problems, 75% with liver problems and 28% with hypertension. About 61.6% of respondents reported concerns about lack of basic sanitation. It is concluded that the populations studied understand the importance of quality water consumption and relate water quality to health problems. Therefore, these results serve as an alert to managers regarding the urgent need to improve the quality of life of this population. |

A percepção dessas populações sobre o cenário em que vivem é de grande relevância nesse contexto, o presente estudo tem como objetivo analisar o perfil socioambiental e a percepção da qualidade da água e sua relação com danos à saúde por populações residentes na área da Usina Hidrelétrica de Belo Monte. Foi realizado um estudo transversal com 268 moradores de duas cidades do interior do Pará-Brasil e os dados foram obtidos a partir da aplicação de um questionário semiestruturado. Os resultados mostraram que os entrevistados possuíam escolaridade mínima e eram de baixa renda. A maioria dos entrevistados relatou ter água encanada em sua residência. No entanto, 63,1% dos entrevistados consideraram a água fornecida como organolepticamente alterada e de má qualidade. Dos entrevistados, 92,5% afirmaram que sua água é principalmente de poços; 94,8% perceberam uma relação entre a diminuição da qualidade da água e o aumento dos problemas de saúde. Destes, 85,2% referem-se à diminuição da qualidade da água com problemas renais, 75% com problemas hepáticos e 28% com hipertensão. Cerca de 61,6% dos entrevistados relataram preocupações com a falta de saneamento básico. Conclui-se que as populações estudadas compreendem a importância do consumo de água de qualidade e relacionam a qualidade da água aos problemas de saúde. Portanto, esses resultados servem de alerta aos gestores quanto à necessidade urgente de melhorar a qualidade de vida dessa população.engUniversidade Federal de Minas GeraisUFMGBrasilENFERMAGEM - ESCOLA DE ENFERMAGEMRevista educamazônia - educação, sociedade e meio ambienteParáSistemas de esgotoÁgua potávelDoença crônicaSaúdeGood water, but for whom? a study on the perception of water quality by amazonian populationsÁgua boa, mas para quem? um estudo sobre a percepção da qualidade da água por populações amazônicasinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttps://periodicos.ufam.edu.br/index.php/educamazonia/article/view/6733Antônia E.
