Monitorização da Dinâmica Corporal para Prevenção da Apneia do Sono

A avaliação e monitorização de sinais vitais é uma ferramenta fundamental utilizada na medicina, principalmente no que se relaciona com o estado físico do indivíduo. A evolução constante da tecnologia assumiu um papel central na evolução de produtos ligados ao contexto médico, que atualmente assumem-se como produtos do quotidiano. Existiu também uma alteração do paradigma, ou seja, produtos anteriormente utilizados exclusivamente na medicina, agora usados em atividades diárias. A preocupação da monitorização de sinais vitais é uma temática emergente, uma vez que uma análise correta destes dados permite intervir precocemente em aspetos que melhoram a qualidade de vida do indivíduo. A prevenção tornou-se um fator essencial, visto que os utilizadores interagem com estes produtos no quotidiano. Esta necessidade leva ao aparecimento de novos produtos, que estejam ligados à atividade diária do indivíduo. É neste paradigma que a solução se apresenta, a interação do produto com o utilizador de forma discreta e menos intrusiva, oferecendo maior conforto e funcionalidade. Assim sendo, o designer deve perceber os princípios de funcionamento dos componentes que permitem recolher informação sobre os sinais vitais e ambientais. O papel do design neste projeto de investigação passou pelo desenvolvimento de uma solução para monitorização da dinâmica corporal no período do sono, de forma a contribuir para a prevenção da apneia do sono. A solução divide-se em três elementos, que interligados, proporcionam ao utilizador um controlo do período de sono. Os elementos são: tapete de mapeamento de pressão, um monitor de sono, e uma aplicação móvel. Os aspetos ergonómicos e funcionais foram tidos em conta na conceção do produto assim como a aplicação de métodos de desenvolvimento de produto, com o intuito de obter uma solução que respeite as necessidades do utilizador. A solução foi validada, do ponto de vista conceptual, através de um protótipo semi-funcional.

Abordando o sono no ensino médio: proposta de unidade didática contextualizada com o tema saúde

Biological rhythms are part of the life from the simplest to the most complex living beings. In humans, one of the most important biological rhythms is the sleep-wake cycle (SWC), which represents an indispensable behavior for health, since sleep deprivation can lead to deficits in attention and memory, mood and daytime sleepiness which may affect school performance. Nevertheless, the SWC is a content rarely discussed in schools. Thus, the aim of this research was to address contents of the sleep-wake cycle, related to the content of Health to encourage healthy sleep habits. This study was conducted in a public school with 33 students of the 3rd year of high school and is divided into four stages: 1st) Study and analysis of the content of the textbook adopted by the school to subsidize the activities covered in the teaching unit (TU) and approximation with the biology teacher from the class to evaluated the feasibility of schedules for the development of TU; 2nd) Survey of students' prior knowledge, through a questionnaire, to guide the development of the TU; 3rd) Development and implementation of a TU based on meaningful learning and characterization of the students sleep habits, 4th) Evaluation of the TU as a viable proposal to teach biological rhythms concepts. Previous knowledge of students about the SWC are scarce and this content is not covered in the books adopted by the school. Alternative conceptions were observed, particularly with regard to individual differences in sleep, which may contribute to the occurrence of inadequate sleep habits, as reported by the adolescents in this study. The activities developed during UD were well received by the students who showed participative, motivated and evaluated positively the procedures used by the researcher. After the TU, students' knowledge about the concept of biological rhythms has been increased and they started to identify that the SWC changes throughout life and occur due biological and socio-cultural factors. Thus, the UD elaborated in this study represents a viable proposal to teach the concepts of biological rhythms contextualized to the content of Health, in high school

Influência do horário de trabalho, do gênero e de um programa de educação sobre o sono no ciclo sono/vigília de professores do ensino fundamental e médio

The teaching profession is often associated with extensive workload inside and outside the classroom, poor teaching conditions, among other challenges that can cause sleep problems. These problems may be even greater in women, due to the professional and domestic work hours and to the major sleep necessity. Considering that sleeping problems may result from the practice of poor sleep habits, sleep education programs are conducted with the aim to reduce sleep deprivation, irregularity on sleep schedules, daytime sleepiness and improve sleep quality. In this sense, the objective of this study is to evaluate the influence of working hours, gender and a sleep education program on sleeping habits, quality of sleep, daytime sleepiness and the level of stress in teachers of elementary and secondary education. For that, teachers filled the questionnaires that assessed: 1. Sleeping habits (Sleep & Health), 2. Chronotype (Horne & Ostberg), 3. Daytime sleepiness (Epworth Sleepiness Scale), 4. Sleep Quality (Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index), 5. Level of stress (The Inventory of Stress for Adults of Lipp) and 6. Daily pattern of sleep/wake cycle (Sleep Diary). The questionnaires 1, 4, 5 and 6 were repeated 3 weeks after the sleep education program. Teachers who begin work in the morning (7:11 ± 0:11 h) wake up earlier in the week and often have poor sleep quality compared to those who start in the afternoon (13:04 ± 00:12 h). Among those who begin work in the morning, the intermediate types and those with an evening tendency were more irregular in the wake up time than morning types and increased sleep duration on weekend. In relation to gender, women had longer sleep duration than men, although the majority presented excessive daytime sleepiness and poor sleep quality. However, when work schedule and age are similar between genders, the difference in sleep duration becomes a tendency and the difference in the percentage of excessive daytime sleepiness disappears, but the poor sleep quality persists in women. With respect to teachers who have gone through the sleep education program, there was an increase in knowledge about the subject, which may have contributed to the reduction in the frequency of coffee consumption close to bedtime and to the sleep quality improved in 18 % of participants. In the control group, there were random differences in knowledge in 3rd stage, and sleep quality improved in only 9% of teachers. The participation in the sleep education program was not enough to change the hours of sleep and decrease stress of teachers. Therefore, the start time school in the morning was preponderant in determining the wake up time of teachers, especially for intermediates types and those with an evening tendency. Furthermore, the poor quality of sleep was more common in women, and the sleep education program contributed to increase knowledge on the subject and to improve sleep quality.

Pressão de sono e perfil acadêmico de estudante de medicina do 1º período da UFRN

Academic demands, new social context, new routines and decrease of the parental control, are factors that may influence the sleep pattern of freshman students at the University. Medical students from the Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte (UFRN) have a full-time course, subjects with high-level content, and, at the first semester, classes begin at 7 a.m. This group composed by young adults who still suffering with delayed sleep phase, common in adolescence, indicating that this class schedule can be inappropriate at this age. The reduction of nocturnal sleep during school days, and the attempt to recover sleep on free days – social jet lag (JLS), suggests that in the first semester, students suffer from high sleep pressure. High sleep pressure may reflect on cognitive tasks and performance. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between sleep pressure and the academic profile of medical students from the first semester of UFRN, characterizing this population socio-demographically and investigating possible impacts on therestactivity rhytm and academic performance. A sample of 88 students, healthy men and women awswered the following questionnaires: Pittsburgh Sleep Quality (PSQI), Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS), Horne & Ostberg Chronotype (HO), Munich Chronotype (MCTQ) and “Health and Sleep” adapted. Actigraphy was used during 14 days to make actogramas and obtain non-parametric variables of the rest-activity rhythm and the grades of the morning schedule were used as academic performance. The JLS was used as a measure of sleep pressure. Statistics significance level was 95%. The population was sociodemographic homogeneous. Most students have healthy lifestyle, practice physical activity, use car to go to the university and take between 15 and 30 minutes for this route. Regarding CSV, most were classify as intermediate (38.6%) and evening (32%) chronotypes, needs to nap during the week, suffer daytime sleepiness and have poor sleep quality. 83% of the sample has at least 1h JLS, which led us to divide into two groups: Group <2h JLS (N = 44) and Group ≥ 2h JLS (N = 44). The groups have differences only in chronotype, showing that most evening individuals have more JLS, however, no differences were found in relation to sociodemographic aspect, rest-activity rhythm or academic performance. The homogeneity of the sample was limited to compare the groups, however, is alarming that students already present in the first half: JLG, poor sleep quality and excessive daytime sleepiness, which can be accentuated through the university years, with the emergence of night shifts and increased academic demand. Interventionsaddressingthe importance of good sleep habits and the change of the class start time are strategies aimed to improve student’s health.

Efeitos de um programa de treino cognitivo e das técnicas de higiene do sono para as funções executivas e para a qualidade de sono em idosos saudáveis

The aging process causes changes in the elderly’s sleep/awake standard impairing their cognitive abilities, particularly executive functioning, which already suffers loss by aging. The literature suggests that executive function and preserved sleep quality are key to maintaining good quality of life and independence of older people, requiring interventions to minimize the impact of losses incurred by the aging process. This study evaluated the effect of a cognitive training program and sleep hygiene techniques for executive functions and sleep quality in healthy older people. The participants were 41 healthy older adults, of both sexes, who were randomly divided into four groups: control group [GC], cognitive training group [GTC], sleep hygiene group [GHS] and training group + hygiene [GTH]. The research was developed in three stages: 1st - initial assessment of cognition and sleep; 2nd - specific intervention to each group; 3rd - post-intervention revaluation. The results showed that GTC had significant improvements in cognitive tasks flexibility, planning, verbal fluency and some aspects of episodic memory, besides gains in sleep quality and decrease on daytime hypersomnolence. The GHS improved sleep quality and daytime sleepiness as well and had significant improvements in insights capacity, planning, attention and in all evaluated aspects of episodic memory. The GTH had significant gains in cognitive flexibility, problem solving, verbal fluency, attention and episodic memory. The CG showed significant worsening in excessive daytime sleepiness in capacity planning. Thus, we conclude that cognitive training interventions and sleep hygiene strategies are useful in improving cognitive performance and quality of healthy elderly sleep.

Impacto do exercício físico na qualidade de vida e do sono em pessoas vivendo com HIV/AIDS

The increased incidence along to new therapies for the treatment of HIV/AIDS bring way up exercise as a treatment option, as this promotes relevant changes in the general functioning of the body. The objective of this study was to evaluate in different periods the influence of exercise on quality of life and quality of sleep people living with HIV/AIDS, Natal/RN. The sample consisted of 17 people living with HIV/AIDS participating in physical exercise program, along accompanied by 25 months during the period January 2013 to April 2015. We evaluated through specific instruments quality of life, sleep quality and immunological parameters, which were evaluated before starting the exercise program and reassessed during periods of 2-4 months (short), 5-17 months (average period or intermediate) and finally to 19-25 months (long period). The results showed significant differences in five of the nine areas of quality life, pointing positive behaviors, specifically in the areas overall function, life satisfaction, health concerns, concerns about the medication and acceptance to HIV. We conclude that physical exercise promoted benefits both in short and long term, especially for the areas of quality of life of people living with HIV/AIDS and also demonstrated positive behavior changes and to aspects of sleep quality.

Efeitos da privação do sono em tarefas cognitivas

Learning and memory are important mechanism for species, since its allows to recognize conspecifics, routes and food place. Sleep is one of behaviors known by facilitate learning, it is a widespread phenomenon, present in most of vertebrates lives and highly investigated in many aspects. It is known that sleep deprivation modifies physiologic behavioral processes in animals, however, sleep function in organism is still debatable. Hypothesis range from energy conservation to memory consolidation, with different roles in animal’s evolution. The zebrafish (Danio rerio) emerg e in the last years as vertebrate model in genetics and developmental biology and quickly become popular in behavioral studies, as learning and memory. Despite the fact that zebrafish is a diurnal animal and have well characterized sleep behavior, zebrafish fish still has advantages due to its small size and low cost of maintenance, whichestablishes this species as interesting model for research on sleep. In this study we aimed to analyze the effects of partial and total sleep deprivation on learning acquisition, as well the concomitant administration of alcohol and melatonin. For this, the research was divided in three phases, each one with a different kind of conditioning: (1) object Recognition, (2) avoidance conditioning and (3) appetitive conditioning. The results showed the fish partially sleep deprived and totally sleep deprived + et hanol could perform the tasks just like the control group, however, fish totally sleep deprived and totally sleep deprived + melatonin showed impairments in attention and memory during the tests. Our results suggest that only one night of sleep deprivation is enough to harm the zebrafish performance in cognitive tasks. In addition, ethanol exposure on the night previously the test seems to suppress the negative effects of sleep deprivation, while the melatonin treatment seems not to be enough to promote sleep state, at least on the protocol applied here.

This study aimed to analyze the pattern characteristics of sleep and sleep quality of nurses who worked day and night shifts. This is a study with a quantitative approach, cross-sectional, descriptive. The study was conducted at the University Hospital of Rio Grande do Norte. Data were collected in full in the period from January to September 2015, through the instruments: Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index and Sleep Diary. Subjects were interviewed according to their work shift, day or night, during the working hours of the nursing team. After being coded and tabulated, data were analyzed using SPSS version 20.0. The study was approved by the Research Ethics Committee of the Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte, in the Opinion No. 751 567. For a description of continuous variables were used position measurements (mean and median), dispersion (standard deviation) and correlation (Spearman correlation test), to a 0.05 significance level. The socio-demographic profile of the sample showed a total of n = 104 participants, distributed in: 64 on day shift and night shift 40; wherein 90.4% are female, aged between 24-45 years, corresponding to 73% of the sample. There was the presence of statistically significant differences for the variables: employment and living habits (inpatient and outpatient sector (p = 0.003), have more than one job (p = 0.002), use cordial (p = 0.021); Sleep pattern: nap time (p = 0.003), sleep latency (p = 0.013), total sleep time (p = 0.001), how it felt to wake up (p = 0.017), quality of nighttime sleep (p = 0.001) and sleep quality (p = 0.007) compared between the day shift and the night shift. It was concluded that shift work has changed the pattern and sleep quality of nurses working day and night shifts.

Associação da depressão e distúrbio do sono em pacientes com e sem disfunção temporomandibular

Objective: To evaluate the inter-relationship between TMD (temporomandibular disorder), depression and sleep disorder. Methods: This is a case-control study with questionnaires in 111 patients, allocated from the Dentistry Department of UFRN, Natal, Brazil, from September 2014 to June 2015, for evaluation of depressive symptoms through the BDI (Beck Depression Inventory); sleep disorder, the PSQI (Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index) and DTM through the RDC / TMD (diagnostic criteria to search for DTM). All indexes were applied by a single examiner previously trained and calibrated. The collected data were analyzed with chi-square tests of Pearson (χ2) and the unconditional logistic regression. Results: women had a risk of 2.85 times more likely to develop TMD (p = 0.046). The OR (odds ratio) shows that sleep disturbance increases by 2.19 the chances of having TMD (p = 0.062) and depressive symptoms increase the risk by 3.16 times in developing dysfunction (p = 0.053). Conclusion: The data of this research allows us to conclude that patients with TMD, in this population, were more likely to develop changes in sleep and depressive symptoms.

Caraterísticas miofuncionais orofaciais de indivíduos a envelhecer e com Síndrome da Apneia Obstrutiva do Sono (SAOS): adaptação de um protocolo de avaliação

Introdução: Existem caraterísticas miofuncionais orofaciais inerentes à Síndrome da Apneia Obstrutiva do Sono (SAOS), doença gradualmente mais prevalente no decorrer do envelhecimento. É essencial um instrumento para avaliação pormenorizada destas caraterísticas. Objetivos: Realizar a adaptação para o Português Europeu do Protocolo de Avaliação Miofuncional Orofacial MBGR - adaptado para AOS e Ronco; Realizar a validação cultural da adaptação realizada; Identificar as caraterísticas miofuncionais orofaciais de um grupo de indivíduos com SAOS. Metodologias: A adaptação do protocolo referido para o Português Europeu e respetiva validação cultural, foi realizada por peritas em Motricidade Orofacial (MO) e por peritas em Língua Portuguesa tendo o mesmo sido aplicado a 16 indivíduos com SAOS. Resultados: Após a primeira fase da adaptação para o Português Europeu do Protocolo, durante a validação cultural realizada por peritas em MO através de um “Focus Group” houve necessidade de proceder a alterações. Na aplicação aos indivíduos verificou-se que 15 são do sexo masculino. 100% da amostra de indivíduos com SAOS apresentou alterações na postura em repouso da língua e alterações relativas à sua altura e largura, bem como aumento do comprimento do palato e úvula, com alterações significativas nas funções que recrutam a sua contração isométrica. Conclusões: Existem caraterísticas miofuncionais orofaciais prevalentes na SAOS, como a hipotonia e hipofunção da musculatura da língua, palato mole, úvula, lábios e bochechas. O Terapeuta da Fala deve efetuar a avaliação padronizada destas caraterísticas para realizar uma intervenção que vise modificá-las.

Qualidade Subjetiva do Sono, Sintomas Depressivos e Sentimentos de Solidão em Idosos Institucionalizados e Não Institucionalizados

Parece existir uma associação entre solidão e uma pobre qualidade subjetiva do sono. Em reforço desta ideia, alguns estudos mostraram que os sentimentos de solidão se associam a uma menor satisfação do sono, mesmo que a sua duração não esteja diminuída. Outros mostraram que a solidão se associa a sintomas depressivos. Sabe-se que na institucionalização são frequentes os problemas de sono, depressão e solidão. No entanto, falta saber o que se passa nas respostas sociais portuguesas. Assim foram os nossos principais objetivos descrever a qualidade subjetiva do sono e analisar a intensidade dos sintomas depressivos e dos sintomas de solidão em idosos institucionalizados, comparar com uma subamostra de idosos não institucionalizados e analisar a relação entre estas variáveis nas duas subamostras. Cento e quarenta idosos, com 70 institucionalizados e 70 não institucionalizados foram emparelhados por idade, sexo, escolaridade, estado civil e sem défice cognitivo. A média de idades foi de 76,58 (DP = 6,10), sendo 104 mulheres e 36 homens. Como instrumentos para a análise utilizámos um Questionário Sociodemográfico, o Questionário sobre o Sono na Terceira Idade, o Inventário de Depressão Geriátrica e a Escala de Solidão da Universidade da Califórnia, Los Angeles. Verificou-se que os idosos institucionalizados apresentavam mais sentimentos de solidão do que os não institucionalizados. Contudo, não se verificaram diferenças entre as duas subamostras em relação aos sintomas depressivos e à qualidade subjetiva do sono. Através de uma análise correlacional verificou-se nas duas subamostras que quanto pior a qualidade subjetiva do sono mais sintomas depressivos se observavam e quanto mais sintomas depressivos, mais sentimentos de solidão. Concluímos que não houve diferenças na qualidade subjetiva do sono pelo tipo de resposta social ainda que haja mais sintomas depressivos e sintomas de solidão nos idosos institucionalizados. Não encontrámos também relação entre o sono e a solidão nos idosos institucionalizados. / There seems to be an association between loneliness and poor subjective sleep quality. In support of this idea, some studies have shown that feelings of loneliness are associated with less satisfaction sleep, even if your life is not diminished. Others have shown that loneliness is associated with depressive symptoms. It is known that in the institutionalization are frequent problems with sleeping, depression and loneliness. However, lack know what is happening in the Portuguese social responses. So were our main objectives describe the subjective quality of sleep and analyze the intensity of depressive symptoms and loneliness symptoms in institutionalized elderly, compared with a non-institutionalized elderly subsample and analyze the relationship between these variables in both subsamples. One hundred and forty older adults, with 70 institutionalized and 70 non-institutionalized were matched by age, sex, education, marital status and without cognitive impairment. The average age was 76.58 (SD = 6.10), including 104 women and 36 men. As tools for the analysis we used a sociodemographic questionnaire, the Questionnaire About Sleep in the Older Adults, Geriatric Depression Inventory and the Loneliness Scale of the University of California, Los Angeles. It was found that the institutionalized older adults had more feelings of loneliness than noninstitutionalized. However, there were no differences between the two subsamples in relation to depressive symptoms and subjective sleep quality. Through a correlational analysis it was found in the two subsamples that the worse the subjective sleep quality more depressive symptoms were observed and the more depressive symptoms, more feelings of loneliness. We concluded that there no differences in subjective sleep quality by the type of social response even though there are more depressive symptoms and symptoms of loneliness in the elderly. Also we did not find relationship between sleep and loneliness in the elderly.
