Abstract

UNASSIGNED

The article aims to analyze the perception and knowledge of health professionals working in primary health care networks in the Municipality of Curitiba - Paraná, regarding the compulsory notification of Induced Hearing Loss Noise (NIHL) in the National Notifiable Diseases Information System (SINAN).

UNASSIGNED

We performed a transversal cohort study in Curitiba, analyzing perception and knowledge of health professionals working in the primary health care networks in the Municipality of Curitiba, regarding the compulsory notification of NIHL in SINAN, from 2007 to 2014, featuring the reported cases and exploring the situational analysis of the NIHL notification, through a questionnaire and a structured news conference.

UNASSIGNED

The primary care professionals' survey showed that 50% were doctors and the predominant age group was 26-30 years, with 56.2% reported as being able to identify health problems related to work, but only 43.7% feel able to identify cases of NIHL.

UNASSIGNED

It was found that health professionals know the features and feel able to identify cases of NIHL, but still do not report suspected NIHL cases and do not consider occupational health an institutionalized program that is part of the service.
