JUSTIFICATIVA E OBJETIVOS: Dentre as indicações mais freqüentes de sedação em pacientes internados em Unidades de Terapia Intensiva (UTI) estão a instituição e a manutenção de ventilação artificial, a ansiedade e procedimentos desconfortáveis ou dolorosos. O objetivo deste estudo retrospectivo foi verificar as indicações e as técnicas mais comuns de sedação em pacientes graves internados na Unidade de Terapia Intensiva Cirúrgica da Escola Paulista de Medicina (EPM/UNIFESP) durante um período de 11 meses. MÉTODO: Após terem sido excluídos os pacientes que permaneceram na UTI menos de 24 horas ou estavam sem exames indispensáveis para o cálculo do índice de gravidade (APACHE II), a amostra ficou reduzida a 307 pacientes. Foram analisadas as técnicas mais utilizadas, as indicações de sedação e a associação de bloqueadores neuromusculares. RESULTADOS: A sedação foi administrada em 37,4% dos pacientes. Entre as indicações de sedação estão os distúrbios de natureza psiquiátrica, como delírio, agitação, medo e ansiedade. Estas corresponderam a 25,77% de todas as indicações. A maioria dos pacientes ventilados artificialmente também necessita de sedativos. Instalação e manutenção de ventilação mecânica corresponderam à maioria das indicações, em torno de 57,73% dentre os pacientes sedados. Procedimentos como intubação traqueal e broncoscopia tiveram 11,34% das indicações e controle do metabolismo (coma barbitúrico e tétano), 5,15%. As técnicas mais comumente utilizadas incluíram opióides isolados ou associados a benzodiazepínicos. Neste estudo, o fentanil foi utilizado em 58% das técnicas, isoladamente, e em 21,64% associado ao midazolam. Haloperidol, diazepam, propofol e tiopental somaram 19,5%. Bloqueadores neuromusculares foram utilizados em 22,7% dos casos em pacientes ventilados artificialmente. CONCLUSÕES: A sedação é recurso terapêutico freqüente em Terapia Intensiva, comumente utilizada para facilitar a ventilação artificial e tratar os problemas de natureza psiquiátrica. Fentanil, isoladamente ou em associação com midazolam, foi o agente mais utilizado.

Enteric organisms, pseudomonads and other opportunistic microorganisms in the oral microbiota have been linked to serious infections in patients hospitalized in intensive care units (ICU). The present study evaluated the presence of family Enterobacteriaceae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Acinetobacter baumannii in the mouth of patients in ICU, correlating it with oral and systemic conditions. Data on health, socioeconomic status, medication use, drug addiction, medical and family histories of patients held for more than 72 hours in the ICU with a diagnosis of severe infection or that developed this condition after entry in said unit were obtained. Fifty patients provided clinical samples of supragingival and subgingival biofilms, saliva and oral mucous membranes were collected, as well as respiratory secretions from patients with pneumonia, blood and urine for sepsis. The presence of target microorganisms was carried out by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and by culture using selective media. The Chi-square and Mann-Whitney tests were used for statistical analysis, and the significance level was 5%. The intraoral clinical conditions of the patients were poor. The family Enterobacteriaceae was the most prevalent, affecting 39.5% of the supragingival biofilm samples of patients attended in ICU and 18.6% of patients in the control group, besides the rods were the only group found in extraoral samples.

The relationship between the occurrence of enterococci in the oral microbiota and serious infections in patients hospitalized in intensive care units (ICU) has been established. This study evaluated the presence of Enterococcus faecalis and other species of this genus in the mouths of patients on ICU, correlating it with oral and systemic conditions. Data on health and socioeconomic, medication use, medical and family history of patients maintained for 72 hours in the ICU, diagnosed with severe infection or who have developed this condition after the entry to the unit were obtained. Fifty patients provided intraoral and extraoral clinical samples for analysis (above and subgingival biofilm, saliva and buccal mucosa, followed by obtaining samples of respiratory secretions for patients with pneumonia, and blood and urine for sepsis). The presence of target microorganisms was performed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and culture using selective media. The chi-square and Mann-Whitney tests were used for statistical analysis, and the significance level was 5%. The intraoral clinical conditions of the patients showed poor. E. faecalis was significantly more frequent microorganism, followed by E. faecium. The use of broadspectrum antimicrobial action was associated with the presence of these opportunistic microorganisms. These bacteria were more frequent in patients with periodontitis or gingivitis. The results showed that enterococci associated with serious infectious processes may originate from resident microbiota of patients and its prevalence is not elevated in healthy individuals.

OBJETIVO: Compreender os aspectos da dimensão pessoal do processo de trabalho para enfermeiras que atuam em Unidades de Terapia Intensiva (UTI) de um hospital universitário do interior do Estado de São Paulo. MÉTODOS: Estudo de abordagem qualitativa utilizando o método fenomenológico. Foram entrevistadas 12 enfermeiras que trabalhavam nas UTI de adulto, pediátrica e coronariana dessa instituição hospitalar e para análise dos relatos, utilizou-se o referencial da estrutura do fenômeno situado. RESULTADOS: A análise dos relatos permitiu identificar a categoria: dimensão pessoal do trabalho na UTI, com os temas - trabalho gratificante, trabalho desgastante e (des) valorização do trabalho. CONCLUSÃO: Os resultados do estudo revelam que as enfermeiras das UTI selecionadas identificam-se com o trabalho, porém vivenciam situações desmotivadoras decorrentes da elevada carga de trabalho, que dificulta o desenvolvimento do processo de trabalho e compromete a qualidade do cuidado.

Objective: To evaluate the in vitro activity of the fourth-generation cephalosporin cefpirome in comparison to that of ceftazidime, ceftriaxone, cefotaxime and imipenem in a multicenter study involving nine hospitals from six cities (four states). Material and methods: A total of 804 isolates from patients hospitalized in either intensive care units or Oncology/Hematology units was evaluated. The isolates were collected between June and November of 1995, i.e. before cefpirome became commercially available in Brazil, and susceptibility tested by broth microdilution following the NCCLS procedures. All isolates resistant to cefpirome were retested by B-test. Results: Against Enterobacteriaceae (n = 344), cefpirome demonstrated an activity 2 to 32-fold higher than that of the third-generation cephalosporins (TGCs) and similar to that of imipenem. The percentages of Enterobacteriaceae susceptible were: 88%, 69% and 96% for cefpirome, TGCs and imipenem, respectively, The cefpirome spectrum were greater or equal to that of imipenem against Citrobacter freundii, Enterobacter aerogenes, Morganellao morganii and Serratia marcescens. Against Acinetobacter sp. (n = 77), cefpirome was slightly more active than ceftazidime; however, the percentages of isolates resistant to these compounds were high (84% and 88%, respectively). The activities of cefpirome, ceftazidime and imipenem were very similar against P. aeruginosa isolates (n = 128), with MIC50 (μg/ml) percent susceptible of 8/59%, 8/62% and 4/62% respectively, Against aerobic gram-positive bacteria, the cefpirome activity was 4 to 16-fold higher than that of TGCs but 2 to 8-fold lower than that of imipenem. Conclusion: The results of our study suggest that, in Brazil, cefpirome has a spectrum of activity which is higher than that of the TGCs against aerobic gram-negative (Enterobacteriaceae and non-Enterobacteriaceae) and gram-positive bacteria and similar to that of imipenem against some Enterobacteriaceae species and P. aeruginosa.

Nowadays the studies of different methodologies to interfere in the growing and spread of serious infections and systemic status in institutionalized patients those kept on intensive therapy units are relevant to understanding these complex systems and bring benefits to several health areas, particularly public health. In this study, it was analyzed the clinical and microbiological data from patients hospitalized in intensive therapy units. The interaction between patients and caregivers was modeled and analyzed using dynamic system model and complex network theory, identifying outbreaks values of microorganisms of Enterobacteriaceae Family.
