0107/2021 - Ações de vigilância à saúde integradas à Atenção Primária à Saúde diante da pandemia da COVID-19: contribuições para o debate Actions of health surveillance integrated into Primary Health Care against COVID-19 pandemic: contributions to the debate
Trata-se de uma revisão de síntese integrativa que abrange a compilação de experiências internacionais com objetivo de refletir sobre os desafios atinentes às ações de vigilância em saúde no enfrentamento da COVID-19, no âmbito da Atenção Primária à Saúde (APS), em sistemas de saúde de países selecionados. Foram incluídos, no estudo, países com modelos de APS distintos, mas que adotaram a vigilância nos territórios como premissa para o controle da transmissão da COVID-19. Houve a revisão bibliográfica da literatura científica e a análise documental de normas e diretrizes relacionadas à organização da APS para enfrentamento da pandemia. A produção dos dados ocorreu no período entre abril a julho de 2020 e envolveu a busca de documentos sobre o enfrentamento da COVID-19, no que se refere à APS, nos sites oficiais governamentais de cada país e nas bases de dados científicas Web of Science e Science direct. Ações integradas de vigilância em saúde demonstraram atuação mais direcionada sobre riscos, sendo possível respostas inovadoras e mais efetivas para enfrentamento da COVID-19, considerando necessidades emergentes no âmbito da APS. Contudo, experiências desenvolvidas por alguns países, com o suporte de novas tecnologias digitais e virtuais para melhorar o desempenho das ações de vigilância, apresentaram controvérsias éticas e operacionais além dos desafios de acesso às tecnologias decorrente das desigualdades sociais.

Abstract:
This is a systematization of international experiences aimed at reflecting on the challenges related to health surveillance actions in coping with COVID-19, within the scope of Primary Health Care (PHC), in health systems in ed countries. The study included countries with different PHC models, but which adopted surveillance in the territories as a premise for controlling the transmission of COVID-19. There was a bibliographic review of the scientific literature and a documentary analysis of norms and guidelines related to the organization of PHC to face the pandemic. The production of the data took place between April and July 2020 and involved the search for documents about the COVID-19 confrontation, with regard to PHC, on the official government websites of each country and in the scientific databases Web Of Science and Science direct. Integrated health surveillance actions demonstrated a more targeted action on risks, making possible innovative and more effective responses to cope with COVID-19, considering emerging needs within PHC. However, experiences developed by some countries, with the support of new digital and virtual technologies to improve the performance of surveillance actions, have presented ethical and operational controversies in addition to the challenges of access to technologies resultingsocial inequalities.
