Relação entre estresse percebido e qualidade de vida em pessoas idosas

O envelhecimento é um processo multifatorial, influenciado por mudanças biológicas, sociais e psicológicas que pode estar associado ao desenvolvimento de estresse e ao comprometimento da qualidade de vida. O objetivo deste trabalho foi investigar a relação entre o estresse percebido e a qualidade de vida em idosos no município de Campina Grande, PB. O estudo teve um delineamento transversal e descritivo, com abordagem quantitativa, amostragem do tipo snowboll e não probabilística, com amostra composta por 326 idosos, considerando as perdas, totalizaram 253 idosas para a análise dos dados. Foram realizados análises descritivas e testes paramétricos e não-paramétricos entre as características da amostra, adotando um nível de significância de 5%. Utilizou-se como instrumentos um questionário sócio-demográfico e epidemiológico, o Índice de Barthel, a Escala de Atividades Instrumentais de Vida Diária de Lawton e Brody, as Escalas de Estresse Percebido, PSS14 e PSS10 e o SF-36, para avaliar a qualidade de vida relacionada à saúde. As idosas participantes apresentaram o seguinte perfil sócio-demográfico e epidemiológico: idade média de 71,3 anos; 80,2% casadas ou viúvas; 55,3% praticam alguma atividade física; aproximadamente 50% tinham menos de 8 anos de estudo; 76,7% recebiam até dois salários mínimos por mês; a maioria, 82,2%, vivia com a família; e 87,4% apresentava alguma doença crônica. Com relação ao estresse percebido, foi possível identificar que as pontuações da P SS-14 e PSS-10 variaram entre, 2-53 e 4-39, respectivamente, sendo que a quantidade de participantes com valores PSS-14  28 e PSS-10  21 foram de 15.8% (n = 40) e 20.6% (n= 52), respectivamente. Na avaliação da qualidade de vida relacionada à saúde, os escores do SF-36 foram menores nas dimensões de dor (62,7) e aspectos físicos (63,6), e maiores nas dimensões aspectos sociais (84,4) e saúde mental (75,6). Observou-se uma correlação negativa e estatisticamente significativa entre os valores de estresse percebido e os domínios do SF-36 (p <0,001). O estresse percebido relacionou-se tanto com os aspectos físicos e funcionais como com a saúde mental das idosas, apresentando uma associação com a qualidade de vida de forma global, sendo um ótimo indicador da qualidade de vida das idosas.

Autoeficácia e qualidade de vida de pessoas com úlcera venosa

Venous ulcers (UV) are the result of deep venous insufficiency or obstruction leading to venous hypertension in the lower limbs and lesions. Self-efficacy is the belief in the ability to successfully perform a given task or exhibit behavior that leads to a desirable outcome. Nursing needs to know and explore the influence of self-efficacy on quality of life (QOL) of people with UV, seeking to exercise holistic care. Thus, this study aimed to analyze the correlation of self-efficacy for pain control and functionality with the QOL of people with UV in primary health care. It is a cross-sectional, analytical, quantitative study with people with UV in family health strategy and mixed units in Natal / RN. We used the instruments: sociodemographic and health questionnaire, domains self-efficacy for pain control and self-efficacy for functionality of Scale of Self-Efficacy for Chronic Pain (SFCD) and the Charing Cross Venous Ulcer Questionnaire (CCVUQ). The sample included 101 people in the self-efficacy scale for functionality and 89 in self-efficacy for pain, for twelve patients reported no pain at the time of collection, and therefore were excluded from the application of the scale of selfefficacy for pain. The project was approved by the ethics committee of the Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte (CAAE No. 07556312.0.0000.5537), serving Resolution 466/12. Women predominated (66.3%), elderly (61.4%), married or in a stable relationship (63.4%), low income (90.1%) and education (85.1%), inactive (75.2%), associated chronic diseases (60.4%), more than six hours of sleep / day (82.2%), non-drinkers / smokers (80.2%), chronic injury (73.3%) and moderate to severe pain (76.2%). Self-efficacy for pain (mean 67.3, SD 26.6) was less committed to the self-efficacy for functionality (mean 59.4 SD 25.9), with statistical difference (pvalue = 0.011). No significant associations were found between self-efficacy for pain control and functionality with the sociodemographic and health characteristics. When considering the total mean CCVUQ (mean 52.1, SD 16.6), QOL of respondents tended to worsen, with the aesthetic domain the most committed (mean 57.6, SD 24.0), followed by emotional state (mean 57.0, SD 25.7), social interaction (mean 48.4, SD 21.4) and household activities (mean 43.6, SD 23.3) . We found negative and significant correlations between self-efficacy for pain and CCVUQ total score (r = -0,324; p = 0,001), the social interaction domain (r = -0,278; p = 0,008), household activities (r = - 0,285; p = 0,007) and state emotional (r = -0,247; p = 0,019). Likewise, between selfefficacy for functionality and the CCVUQ total score (r = -0,553; p < 0,001), the social interaction domain (r = -0,553; p < 0,001), household activities (r = -0,594; p < 0,001) and emotional status (r = -0,259; p = 0,009). The aesthetic domain showed negative correlation but weak and not significant with self-efficacy for pain (r = -0, 155; p = 0,147) and functionality (r = -0,189; p = 0,058). It became evident the correlation between self-efficacy for pain control and functionality and the domains social interaction, household activities and emotional state, the quality of life of people with UV

Estratégias de enfrentamento de pessoas vivendo com AIDS frente à situação da doença

The Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS), considered today one chronic nature of the disease due to the advent of antiretroviral therapy (TARV), brings to individuals living with this disease, difficulties related to social interaction and adaptation to new physical condition and the routines imposed by the treatment.

A preceptoria na estratégia saúde da família: o olhar dos profissionais de saúde

The proposal of teaching-service integration from work experience brings a challenge to the professionals involved in health services: to combine their healthcare practice to the preparation of new professionals in accordance with the national health model. In Recife, the assistance network is known as school network, since it provides all its health equipment for Higher Education Institutions, in special for professionals who work as preceptors, making this activity an important component of the services network. The objective of the present study was to analyze preceptorship experience herein Multidisciplinary Residences in Health in the look of health professionals. This is a qualitative descriptive study, involving physicians, dentists, and nurses that have worked as preceptors for at least two years in multidisciplinary residency linked to two Higher Education Institutions. A semistructured interview was used as research instrument and data were processed by using the software Alceste 4.9. Results indicated four semantic classes which were divided into two axis. Axis 1, composed of class 4, and Axis 2, composed of classes 3, 2 and 1. Categorization considered the relation between classes. It was observed that in class 4 work overload is a dilemma for professional participation in preceptorship. This is noted by the words manage, time, patient, give, and complicated. However, it is also observed that the preceptorship involves positive learning and teaching actions, reinforced by the words say, explain, and discuss. Class 2 shows the preceptorship as an experience exchange, a positive moment that provides theoretical upgrade to the preceptor, associated to the professional practices performed by the binominal preceptor-student in health services and communities. In this perspective, everyone is benefited since preceptorship is structured according to dynamic aspects of knowledge, experienced in settings permeated by people´s health necessities. In class 3, potentialities of this practice are shown, and personal compromise is the main reason of acting as a preceptor in this network of education/attention, demonstrated in the words reason, formation, to like and professionals. Last, but not the least, class 1 suggests the importance of preceptorship and one of the strategies to create the National Politics of Humanization, from the teachingservice-community integration, observed in the words: arrives, university, fundamental, manner, partnership, service, and student. Besides, it rates perspectives and challenges for the improvement of the preceptorship in health services. Integrating teaching and service can enhance the proposals of changes concerning the healthcare model practiced in services, but this relation is still superficial. The preceptor is an actor in action, playing real life roles, and that is when he becomes essential to seek training with the profile defended in the proposed training of a professional who is capable of learning to learn

Estimulação transcraniana por corrente contínua (ETCC) sobre o córtex motor na modulação autonômica em pessoas com lesão medular com diferentes graus e níveis de lesão

Introduction: Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) has been used in studies for the treatment of chronic pain, but their effects on the autonomic nervous system (ANS) are non-existent. Therefore, the need for studies is of fundamental importance, as these individuals have autonomic imbalance and the intensity of this is dependent on the degree and level of injury. Objective: We investigated the effect of tDCS on the ANS in people with spinal cord injury (SCI) with different degrees and levels of injury. Methods: Randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, applied anodal tDCS or sham on the primary motor cortex (M1), bilaterally. The subjects (lower incomplete injury, n = 7; lower complete injury, n = 9; and high complete thoracic injury, n = 3) visited the laboratory three times and received active or sham tDCS for 13min. The heart rate variability (HRV) was measured before, during and after stimulation and analyzed the variables LF, HF and LF / HF. Results: The tDCS modulated the ANS in different ways among the groups. In individuals with SCI high complete thoracic the tDCS did not change the HRV. However, for individuals with SCI low incomplete, tDCS changed the HRV in order to increase sympathetic (LF, p = 0.046) and reduced parasympathetic (HF, p = 0.046). For individuals SCI low complete to tDCS changed the HRV reduction sympathetic (LF, p = 0.017) and increased parasympathetic (HF, p = 0.017). Conclusions: The present study suggests that anodal tDCS applied on the motor cortex bilaterally could modulate the ANS balance in people with spinal cord injury and that this effect is dependent on the degree and level of injury.

Os dados revelaram dificuldades quanto ao atendimento domiciliar. No Brasil, foi destaque o processo de trabalho, com avanços relacionados a realização de planejamento e programação das ações e o apoio da gestão. Existência de território definido e de prontuários familiares. É destaque a agenda compartilhada e pactuada entre os profissionais. As equipes realizam acolhimento e reuniões, cujos temas, discutidos, giram em torno do processo de trabalho e planejamento. Os desafios, enfrentados, estão relacionados ao agendamento dos usuários; ao número de pessoas sob a responsabilidade das equipes; à existência de população descoberta nas áreas adscritas à Unidade de Saúde; à incipiência na ação intersetorial e ao pouco envolvimento da comunidade pelas equipes. Quanto aos fatores associados à satisfação do usuário foi marcante: a faixa etária; a escolaridade; a raça; se a falta de material prejudica o atendimento e se a equipe consegue marcar consulta para outros profissionais. Conclusões: Constatou-se o trabalho em equipe como elemento central no processo de mudança na Atenção Primária à Saúde, tanto no contexto de Portugal quanto no do Brasil, o qual ampliou o acesso e a qualidade na oferta de serviços de saúde e obteve, ainda, o reconhecimento social, mesmo que, em ambas as realidades, não tenha avançado na coordenação do cuidado e no estímulo à participação social. Os fatores, associados com a satisfação do usuário, estão relacionados diretamente ao cuidado prestado e refletem a expectativa, por parte do usuário, de resolução concreta de suas necessidades.

Serviços-escola de psicologia do Rio Grande do Norte: formação profissional e política pública de saúde em debate

The Psychology University Services is stablished normatively as an indispensable equipment to the recognition of the graduation courses of psychologists by the Brazilian Education Ministery. The Public Healthcare Policies (Universal Health System/SUS) constitutes itself as a input field of the professional category, but shows huge challenges in the formation of these professionals. The objective of this work is to analyse the functioning of the Psychology University Services (SEP) and the Superior Educational Institutions from Natal, understood as important formation devices to attend the actual demands of the psychologist's work on SUS. For this, it sought a) characterize the psychological practices developed in the SEP; b) relate the National Curricular Lines of Direction of the psychology courses to the skills and competences developed in the SEP to the performance on the public healthcare policies; c) mapping ways of including the SEP in the network designed by the healthcare policy. Interviews were performed with 13 academic supervisors, 8 field supervisors and technicians of superior level (TNC), along with 9 managers, being for of the Psychology University Services and 5 of the graduation programs. Questionnaires were also applied to 57 interns and 24 graduates. Besides that, two conversation circles were performed with the faculty and technician members from two of the Educational Institutions that were participating of the research, as well as a workshop with students and psychologists, promoted by the CRP 17. We observed that most part of the faculty members and managers know the DCN and comprehend that the formation is in process of change in what concerns to the extension of the formation to the performance of the psychologists in various contexts. However, most part of the TNC don't know about them. Moreover, the results point to the predominance of the assisting model based on the traditional clinic psychology, although the articulation with the public healthcare and social assistance networks can already be timidly visualized. Different modalities of practices in theses Psychology University Services were also detected, such as conversation groups, thematic workshops, organizational consultancies, team meetings with the interns and TNS in a daily basis, matriciament in mental health, therapeutic monitoring, among others. Yet, the SEP in Rio Grande do Norte are still isolated from the other courses that perform in the healthcare area and also from the services that compose the public healthcare and public policies.

Trajetória de pessoas com AIDS em situação de vulnerabilidade social: à luz da história oral de vida

The epidemic caused by HIV presents a global, dynamic and unstable phenomenon, which depends on the individual and collective human behavior. Efforts to deconstruct the stigmatized image caused by infection of AIDS are still often associated with adoption of socially unacceptable behavior to be a circumscribed the susceptibilities of vulnerable individuals and communities to infection, illness and death by HIV. This study aimed to: narrate the trajectory of life of people with AIDS more vulnerable enrolled in the Municipal Social Assistance Parnamirim / RN. It is a study of qualitative, exploratory and descriptive approach, taking oral history of life as technical and methodological framework. The colony consisted of 186 people with AIDS. The network was comprised of 13 employees of both sexes, aged between 19 and 62 years old with positive diagnosis and agreed to voluntarily participate. After approval by the Ethics Committee of the Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte (CEP / UFRN), in the opinion No. 719,926 CAAE: 30408114.5.0000.5537 on 6 June 2014 data were collected from August to September 2014. The employees signed the Informed Consent and Informed and letter of assignment. Held transcribing the interviews and later returned to respondents to retest, ie so that they confer what allowed us to carry out transcreation after consecutive readings. The reports were analyzed through Bardin content analysis. Guiding the analysis of the accounts of employees, we find three themes: Prejudice and discrimination in living with AIDS; Reacting to the diagnosis and the accession process to antiretroviral treatment; and religious coping in people with AIDS. It can be concluded in this study, that employees have shown great emotional impact after positive diagnosis for HIV / AIDS, especially with regard to social life, the family ties, work and above all to the prejudice of society. Treatment with antiretroviral drugs was seen as a motivation to regain dreams and plans for a future once uncertain, and even if it is not a cure therapy, provided the employees improved quality of life.
