A equidade no acesso aos serviços de saúde é um princípio fundamental do Sistema Único Saúde (SUS), mas ainda enfrenta desafios significativos Brasil, especialmente para populações vulneráveis. Este estudo tem como objetivo analisar as principais barreiras e estratégias a promoção da à saúde, por meio uma revisão integrativa literatura baseada em artigos científicos publicados entre 2020 2025. busca foi realizada bases dados reconhecidas, SciELO, PubMed, Lilacs Web of Science, utilizando...
As lesões por pressão (LP) representam um desafio significativo nos cuidados de saúde, especialmente em pacientes hospitalizados longos períodos. Essas estão associadas a aumento da morbimortalidade e elevados custos hospitalares. A atuação equipe multiprofissional na prevenção das LPs tem se mostrado essencial para reduzir incidência dessas melhorar os desfechos clínicos. Este estudo teve como objetivo analisar importância LPs, destacando estratégias baseadas evidências, desafios...

During the SEMANE 2000 experiment southwest of Portugal, two meddies were found in near contact. These had hydrological radii about 20 and 30 km, thickness 900 m, maximum temperatures 12.45°C 13.45°C, salinities 36.52 36.78. The smaller meddy with more pronounced thermohaline anomalies was clearly double cored (at 750 1300 m depths) while wider one diffuse homogeneous. associated geostrophic velocities (referenced at m) locally reached 0.5 m/s meddy, 0.2 one. Three RAFOS floats deep‐drogued...
The Regional Ocean Modeling System ocean model is used to simulate the decadal evolution of regional waters in offshore Iberia response atmospheric fields given by ECMWF ERA-40 (1961–2001) and ERA-Interim (1989–2008) reanalyses. simulated sea surface temperature (SST) are verified against satellite AVHRR SST, they analysed characterise variability trends coastal upwelling region. Opposing frequency found at northern limit, where has been decreasing recent decades, its southern edge, there...
Abstract The interaction between the incoming winds and high mountainous islands produces a wind-sheltered area on leeward side, known as atmospheric wake. In addition to weaker winds, wake is also characterized by clearing of clouds, resulting in intense solar radiation reaching sea surface. As consequence, warm oceanic forms side. This phenomenon, detectable from space, can extend 100 km offshore Madeira, where surface temperature be 4°C higher than surrounding waters. study considers...
Hydrological and LADCP data from four experiments at sea (Semane 1999(Semane , 2000(Semane /1, /3, 2001) ) are used to describe the structure circulation of Mediterranean Water in Gulf Cadiz.These were gathered on meridional sections along 8˚20′W 6˚15′W between these longitudes a zonal section 35˚50′N.The mesoscale submesoscale structures (Mediterranean Undercurrents, meddies, cyclones) observed characterized terms thermohaline properties velocity.The transports mass salt each class density...
Abstract Madeira island is a well‐known source of atmospheric and oceanic eddy activity, with relevant downstream impact in both media. Previous studies focused on the dynamics wake environment, suggesting relevance different atmosphere–ocean interactions its maintenance. Here, results from one summer (two months) fully coupled high‐resolution simulations are used to explore such further understand Madeira's wake. Those results, validated against available situ remote‐sensing data, indicate...
Abstract During the summer months, northeasterly trade winds impinging on Madeira Island lead to establishment of a quasi‐permanent wind pattern with two tip jets emerging near western and eastern island tips. These respond subtle changes upstream flow an amplified signal, high‐resolution simulation regional atmospheric is found indicate intensification, associated lowering boundary layer slight realignment background flow. results are validated by observations at Airport, where proximity...
The present study assesses the thermal variability of regional ocean around Madeira Island, in intraseasonal and interdecadal time scales, using a 35-year (1983–2017), 3-km horizontal resolution simulation forced by co-located atmospheric simulation, with SODA ERA5 boundary initial conditions, respectively. Atmosphere–ocean interactions this region are found to be driven two quasi-permanent tip-jets, located at island west east tips, especially during summer months. response is larger...
Abstract The climate of western Europe and northwest Africa strongly depends on the Azores anticyclone strength, location, shape and, locally, also characteristics Iberia Sahara summer thermal lows. EC-EARTH3 global simulations are here used to assess predicted behaviour these two relevant surface pressure systems associated wind, by end XXI century (2071–2100), considering change scenarios. Additionally, a high-resolution Weather Research Forecasting (WRF) simulation centred Madeira Island...
The role of low-level jets in the intra-seasonal variability Canary upwelling system during summer is assessed with a fully coupled, high resolution (3km) ocean-atmosphere numerical simulation. Here, include main continental coastal jet, tip Madeira and tip-jets steep Islands. coastline shape, orography northwest Africa proximity islands lead to complex interactions between jets, that result strong surface wind on multiweek time scale. That forced by oscillations shape position Azores...
