Resumo: | The elderly belong to a parcel of the population who need a pharmaceutical attention service with an approach on promoting the rational use of medicines, thus decreasing the Medicine Related Problems (MRP). This was a longitudinal and quantitative study held with 27 elderly of a community from the suburb of Fortaleza - Ceará, Brazil, in the period of August, 2003 to July, 2004. The instrument for data collection consisted of a questionnaire with open and closed questions, being allowed the intervention of the interviewer when necessary. The method applied was adapted from the first step of Dader Method for Pharmacotherapy Follow-up (PTF) and was based on obtaining the patient’s pharmacotherapy history for posterior evaluation of the situation state and the identification and resolution of possible MRP. The results pointed out an excessive use of medicines. In 19 (70.3%) elderly, the routine use of more than one medicine was detected. Arterial hypertension was the most referred illness, affecting 14 (51.8%) of the subjects; three made use of medicines of high risk for elderly people. From this study, we evidenced the need of pharmaceutical attention directed to elderly aiming at a posterior constructing of a situation state and intervening when necessary. |

Tratou-se de um estudo longitudinal, quantitativo, realizado com 27 idosos de comunidade de periferia de Fortaleza (Ceará), no período de agosto 2003 a junho 2004. O instrumento de coleta de dados consistiu de um questionário com perguntas abertas e fechadas, sendo permitida a intervenção do entrevistador, quando necessário. O método utilizado foi adaptado da primeira etapa do Método Dáder de Seguimento Farmacoterapêutico (STF) e baseou-se na obtenção da história farmacoterapêutica do paciente, para posterior avaliação do estado de situação, e na identificação e resolução dos possíveis PRM. Os resultados apontaram o uso excessivo de medicamentos. Em 19 idosos (70,3%) detectou-se a utilização de mais de um medicamento rotineiramente. A hipertensão arterial foi a doença crônica de maior freqüência relatada, atingindo 14 (51,8%) dos investigados; três faziam uso de fármacos de alto risco para as pessoas idosas. A partir deste trabalho constatou-se a necessidade de programas de atenção farmacêutica aos idosos objetivando uma posterior construção do estado de situação e intervenção quando necessário.Universidade de Fortaleza2012-01-04info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion"Peer-reviewed Article""Avaliado pelos pares""Avaliado pelos pares"application/pdfhttps://ojs.unifor.br/RBPS/article/view/99510.5020/995Brazilian Journal in Health Promotion; Vol. 20 No. 1 (2007); 12-16Revista Brasileña en Promoción de la Salud; Vol. 20 Núm. 1 (2007); 12-16Revista Brasileira em Promoção da Saúde; v. 20 n. 1 (2007); 12-161806-1230reponame:Revista Brasileira em Promoção da Saúdeinstname:Universidade de Fortaleza (Unifor)instacron:UFORporhttps://ojs.unifor.br/RBPS/article/view/995/2156Couto, Breno EmídioAlbuquerque, Irineu Lima deMedeiros, Maria Angelina da Silvainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2012-01-10T12:18:31Zoai:ojs.ojs.unifor.br:article/995Revistahttps://periodicos.unifor.br/RBPS/oai1806-12301806-1222opendoar:2012-01-10T12:18:31Revista Brasileira em Promoção da Saúde - Universidade de Fortaleza (Unifor)false |
