Resumo
O Porto de Santos compreende em 13 Km de cais localizado entre as duas margens
do Estuário de Santos. Passam pelo porto de Santos 55% do PIB nacional, 49% da
produção nacional, a área de seus negócios concentra a maior parte da produção
agrícola de exportação e os mais importantes pólos industriais brasileiros. O
processo de modernização dos portos fez com que o transporte marítimo
internacional passasse por várias transformações, principalmente na organização
portuária, no transporte e na armazenagem de mercadorias (Machin,2009). A mão é
um instrumento de trabalho e é utilizado na maioria das atividades de vida diária
(Pardini,2000), é vulnerável a vários tipos de traumas, logo é a parte do corpo mais
lesionada (Leite 2008). Mais da metade das fraturas de mão ocorre no trabalho. O
objetivo dessa pesquisa é analisar o processo de reabilitação dos trabalhadores
portuários avulsos do Porto de Santos que sofreram acidente no ambiente de
trabalho que afetaram o membro superior. Este estudo faz parte da pesquisa
“Processo de Modernização Portuário em Santos: implicações na saúde e no
adoecimento dos trabalhadores. Foram entrevistados, na primeira fase da pesquisa,
71 trabalhadores portuários avulsos que referiram ter sofrido acidente de trabalho
envolvendo o membro superior. Na segunda fase da pesquisa foram entrevistados
39 trabalhadores, dos 71 iniciais. A partir dos dados desse estudo foi possível
observar que a maioria dos acidentados de membro superior são estivadores, tem
de 16 a 20 anos de trabalho no Porto de Santos. A maioria dos acidentes esta
relacionados a máquinas ou equipamentos e queda da própria altura. As partes do
corpo afetadas com maior freqüência foram as extremidades distais, mãos e punhos.
Poucos acidentados foram submetidos ao processo de reabilitação, o fato de possuir
ou não convênio médico na época do acidente não foi um fator determinante para
fazer a reabilitação. Um número maior de trabalhadores necessitavam passar por
esse processo, que teve um resultado satisfatório para aqueles que o fizeram.

Pass through the port of Santos 55% of national GDP, 49% of national production, the area of business focus in agricultural production for export and the most important industrial centers of Brazil.

Few accidents were submitted to the rehabilitation process, the fact of having or not health insurance at the time of the accident wasn´t a determining factor for rehabilitation.A greater number of workers needed to be subject to pass in this process, which had a satisfactory outcome for those who did
