Abstract

Objective: analyze factors associated with filling in child health booklets to promote care
coordination and access to health care.
Method: quantitative study conducted between January and June 2016, in a city in the state
of São Paulo. A total of 284 mothers were interviewed and the booklets of their children were
examined; results with p< 0.05 were considered significant.
Results: low completion was identified for prenatal (5%), newborn data (40%), newborn
screening (10%) and discharge (6%). Maternal education (p=0.006) was a factor associated
with proper filling in of newborn data.
Conclusion: the booklets were not a source of data for continued newborn care in the city
investigated. Care coordination is strengthened by continued post-birth care and keeping
adequate records. Filling in this instrument, incorporated into the practices of health services
and professionals at every point in the childcare network enhances healthcare access.
