Esquizofrenia: intervenção em Instituição Pública de Saúde

Les premiers concepts de schizophrénie comprenaient des définitions non-spécifiques sur le trouble schizophrénique. Ce n est qu en 1980 que Crow a proposé la classification la plus connue pour ce trouble: la distinction en soustypes I et II, de symptomatologie positive ou négative, les symptômes du syndrome positif correspondant aux hallucinations et aux délires et ceux du syndrome négatif au repli affectif et à la pauvreté du discours. Bien que la thérapie médicamenteuse présente des avancées dans le traitement de la maladie, la psychothérapie est la plus indiquée pour remédier aux préjudices sociaux et interpersonnels que celle-ci provoque. L objectif de cette étude est de relater une intervention comportementale, dans un Centre de Soins Psychosocial, auprès d une patiente de 19 ans, en utilisant des Exercices de Réadaptation Psychosociale (SAT) en tant que la possibilité de traitement de la schizophrénie. Ce processus a contribué à une réduction du stéréotype de la maladie chez la jeune patiente, considérant qu elle a élargi son répertoire social et a rendu possible des avancées dans les sphères psychologique, sociale et professionnelle.

Efeitos do manejo comportamental de incontinência fecal em adolescente

A incontinência fecal, também conhecida como encoprese, é um transtorno de evacuação que acarreta prejuízos ao desenvolvimento psicossocial e orgânico da criança e do adolescente, e que demanda atenção e cuidado de pais e profissionais de saúde. No amplo contexto de tratamento da encoprese, a psicoterapia constitui importante recurso, sendo a terapia comportamental apontada como uma das modalidades mais promissoras e eficazes para o tratamento dessa dificuldade de eliminação. Este artigo apresenta o estudo dos efeitos do manejo comportamental de quadro de incontinência fecal em um adolescente de 14 anos, atendido em clínica-escola de Psicologia do interior do Estado de São Paulo durante 14 meses. A partir do referencial teórico da análise do comportamento, foi desenvolvido, em contexto psicoterápico, um conjunto de estratégias comportamentais com o cliente, bem como orientações aos pais, visando à gradativa extinção encoprética. No decorrer desse processo, o cliente apresentou significativas aquisições comportamentais de uso regular do banheiro e adequado controle esfincteriano, monitoradas semanalmente, que possibilitaram a plena extinção das ocorrências de sujidade, sendo avaliado o efeito em follow-up realizado três meses após o encerramento dessa intervenção.

The objectives this research are: (a) describing positive interactions established between teacher and student, considering clinical group to behavior problems and non-clinical one; (b) describing behavior repertoire (social skills and behavior problems) of children with and without clinical classification to behavior problems, according to TRF, teacher version. The participants this study were 16 female teachers who indicated and evaluated 32 students - 16 of them presented behavior problems (with BP – clinical group), whereas the other 16 did not (without BP – non clinical group). Students aged 6 years were enrolled in the first year of elementary school. Data collection was conducted through the application of three instruments: TRF, RE-HSE-Pr and QRSH-Pr, as an interview with teachers. Data were categorized and analyzed to compare the clinical and nonclinical groups (Mann-Whitney Test). Overall, this research found that female teachers exert different practices among students who have behavior problems that do not show, being more skilled in the interactions with children without behavior problems and more agressive to those with behavioral problems. Implications for interventions and public policies are discussed.
