Abstract
Objective: To verify the situation and impact of monitoring and evaluation of indicators and information of oral health on the performance of Oral Health Teams (OHT) in the state of Pará. Methods: Descriptive ecological study that used secondary data from OHT participants of the 2nd cycle of PMAB-AB Pará, collected on the period from March to April 2019. To evaluate the association between indicators monitoring and the OHT performance, chi-square and logistic regression analysis were carried out. Results: 500 OHT participated. Great majority of the teams does not monitor and analyze oral health indicators and information (245; 49,0%), tending to present regular and insufficient performance. 183 (36,6%) teams receive support to discuss monitoring data, presenting statistically significant differences between the teams that receive and do not receive this support (p <0.05). It was found that the OHT that perform the monitoring of the indicators are 8.86 more likely to receive a good performance and 29.85 more likely to present an excellent performance. Conclusion: There is a positive impact on the OHT that carry out and are supported to monitor indicators, reaffirming this exercise as a strengthening tool and necessary in the health care services.
