Resumo: | Vitamin A is a fat-soluble micronutrient, being one of the most important vitamins. Its megadoses offered in childhood are essential for the healthy growth of infants, especially concerning a proper maturation of the visual system. This study aims to evaluate the search for Vitamin A supplementation in the Jardim Petrópolis Basic Health Unit (UBS), located in the city of São Gonçalo do Amarante, in the state of Rio Grande do Norte. Quantitative, descriptive, retrospective, longitudinal and structured documental research based on the verification of monitoring records deposited at the aforementioned UBS, carried out under the approval of the local Research Ethics Committee (#4.091.448). The collected data were tabulated and typed, with the statistical data being obtained with the Prism 5.0 software. The socioeconomic analysis revealed that all parents or guardians surveyed were female, predominantly young (aged 26-35 years; 48.83%), of brown color/race (69%) and with a monthly income of 2 to 3 minimum wages (59.52%). Regarding vitamin A supplementation across the period evaluated (2014/2019), the highest frequency was observed in female children, with fluctuations among different ages. Health campaigns are necessary in order to clarify, with the legal responsible for the children, the importance of nutritional and supplementation strategies that ensure adequate levels of this compound in children in a critical period of development, since the impact of inadequate supplementation may reflect in the development of infants. |

Sus megadosis que se ofrecen en la infancia son fundamentales para el sano desarrollo del lactante, sobre todo para la adecuada maduración del sistema visual. Este estudio tiene como objetivo evaluar el índice de búsqueda de suplementación con vitamina A en la Unidad Básica de Salud (UBS) Jardim Petrópolis, ubicada en la ciudad de São Gonçalo do Amarante, en el estado de Rio Grande do Norte. Investigación documental cuantitativa, descriptiva, retrospectiva, longitudinal y estructurada basada en la verificación de los registros de seguimiento depositados en la UBS antes mencionada, realizada bajo la aprobación del Comité de Ética en Investigación local (# 4.091.448). Los datos recopilados se tabularon y tipificaron, obteniéndose los datos estadísticos con el programa estadístico Prism 5.0. El análisis socioeconómico reveló que la totalidad de los padres o responsables legales consultados eran mujeres, predominantemente jóvenes (grupo de edad 26-35 años; 48,83%), de color/raza marrón (69%) y con un ingreso mensual de 2 a 3 salarios mínimos (59,52%). En cuanto a la suplementación con vitamina A en el período evaluado (2014/2019), la mayor frecuencia se observó en niñas, con fluctuaciones entre diferentes edades. Las campañas de salud son necesarias para aclarar, con los responsables, la importancia de las estrategias nutricionales y de suplementación que aseguren niveles adecuados de este compuesto en los niños en un período crítico de desarrollo, ya que el impacto de una suplementación inadecuada puede reflejarse en el desarrollo de los infantes.A vitamina A é um micronutriente lipossolúvel, sendo uma das vitaminas mais importantes.

O presente estudo tem como objetivo avaliar os índices de busca pela suplementação da Vitamina A na Unidade Básica de Saúde (UBS) Jardim Petrópolis, localizado na Cidade de São Gonçalo do Amarante, no Estado do Rio Grande do Norte. Pesquisa do tipo quantitativa, descritiva, retrospectiva, longitudinal e documental estruturada a partir da verificação de prontuários de acompanhamento depositados na UBS supracitada, realizada sob aprovação do Comitê de Ética em Pesquisa local (#4.091.448). Os dados coletados foram tabulados e digitados, com os dados estatísticos sendo obtidos com o programa estatístico Prism 5.0.

No tocante à suplementação de vitamina A no período avaliado (2014/2019), a maior frequência foi observada em crianças do sexo feminino, com oscilação entre as diferentes idades. Campanhas de saúde fazem-se necessárias, de modo a esclarecer, junto aos responsáveis, a importância de estratégias nutricionais e de suplementação que garantam os níveis adequados desse composto em crianças em período crítico de desenvolvimento, uma vez que o impacto da suplementação inadequada poderá refletir no desenvolvimento dos infantes.Research, Society and Development2021-12-21info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/2430210.33448/rsd-v10i17.24302Research, Society and Development; Vol. 10 No. 17; e92101724302Research, Society and Development; Vol. 10 Núm. 17; e92101724302Research, Society and Development; v. 10 n. 17; e921017243022525-3409reponame:Research, Society and Developmentinstname:Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)instacron:UNIFEIporhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/24302/21385Copyright (c) 2021 Vanessa Rayane Vieira; Marco Aurelio M.
