The second approach, Fatherhood and pre-natal care for the partner, deals with the conscious and active participation of men aged 15 years of age and over in actions of planned reproduction, besides indicators about fertility, considering the answers given by the group. The topic Health of persons aged 60 years of age and overdealt with in the third approach, shows some of the facets of aging, such as functional limitations, the regular use of medication, the occurrence of evengts such as cataract and fall, and vaccination against the flu. The fourth approach, Women’s healthencompassed several topics related to women aged 15 years of age and over, such as the taking Pap smear tests, occurrence of histerectomy, menarche and menopause, reproductive planning and contraceptive methods.

Finally, the topic Health of children under 2 years of age analyzes information about their eating habits, neonatal tests before the baby is released from the hospital, and immunization with vaccines.
The publication presents technical notes about the main methodological aspects of the survey and a glossary with the terms and concepts considered relevant to the understanding of results.
