Resumo: | Objectives: Evaluate the storage and disposal of drugs by the university community of Rio Grande do Sul. Methods: Cross-sectional study, conducted between June and August 2017, covering the academic community (students and servers) of UFSM. Results: Of the 170 interviewees, 85.3% stored medicines at home, standing out the fourth as the main storage site (48.6%). The habit of storing medications by students was not associated with gender, age, parents’ level of education, level and period of the course or academic area, or residence status (P>0.05). The residence situation was significantly associated (p=0.022) with the practice of validity monitoring. Considering disposal practices, 70.9% of the academic community discards in common waste. Incorrect disposal of medications performed by servers was associated with mothers’ education (p=0.018) and sex (p=0.031). Conclusion: Regardless of sociodemographic characteristics, most of the population practice storage and reported incorrect disposal of medications. This diagnosis subsidized institutional awareness actions and potentially assists other higher education institutions in the adoption of collective health education measures. |

Métodos: Estudo transversal, realizado entre junho e agosto de 2017 abrangendo a comunidade acadêmica (alunos e servidores). Resultados: Dos 170 entrevistados, 85,3% armazenam medicamentos em domicílio, destacando-se o quarto como principal local de armazenamento (48,6%). O hábito de armazenar medicamentos por alunos não esteve associado ao sexo, idade, escolaridade de pais, nível e período do curso ou área acadêmica ou ainda situação de residência (p>0,05). A situação de residência esteve associada significativamente (p=0,022) com a prática de monitoramento de validade. Considerando as práticas de descarte, 70,9% da comunidade acadêmica descarta em lixo comum. O descarte incorreto de medicamentos realizados por servidores esteve associado à escolaridade das mães (p=0,018) e ao sexo (p=0,031). Conclusão: Independente das características sócio demográficas, a maioria da população pratica o armazenamento e relatou descarte incorreto de medicamentos. Este diagnóstico subsidiou ações institucionais de conscientização e auxilia potencialmente outras instituições de ensino superior na adoção de medidas coletivas de educação em saúde.Universidade Federal de Santa Maria2019-12-10info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufsm.br/revistasaude/article/view/3930110.5902/2236583439301Saúde (Santa Maria); Revista Saúde (Santa Maria), Vol.45, n.3, set.-dez. 2019Saúde (Santa Maria); Revista Saúde (Santa Maria), Vol.45, n.3, set.-dez. 20192236-58340103-4499reponame:Saúde (Santa Maria)instname:Universidade Federal de Santa Maria (UFSM)instacron:UFSMporhttps://periodicos.ufsm.br/revistasaude/article/view/39301/pdf_1Copyright (c) 2019 Saúde (Santa Maria)info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessMichelon, NelizeJesus, Patrícia Romualdo deOliveira, Débora Marques deZucco, Bernardo dos SantosBayer, Valéria Maria LimbergerFlores, Liziane MaahsRies, Edi Franciele2020-02-14T12:55:07Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/39301Revistahttps://periodicos.ufsm.br/revistasaudePUBhttps://periodicos.ufsm.br/revistasaude/oairevistasaude.ufsm@gmail.com || amanda.revsaude@gmail.com || beatriz.revsaude@gmail.com2236-58342236-5834opendoar:2020-02-14T12:55:07Saúde (Santa Maria) - Universidade Federal de Santa Maria (UFSM)false |
