Promoção de vínculo afetivo na Unidade de Terapia Intensiva Neonatal: um desafio para as enfermeiras

As observações do cotidiano na Unidade de Terapia Intensiva Neonatal (UTIn), as reflexões sobre a dicotomia entre a teoria, o discurso e o modo de atuação de muitos enfermeiros junto aos pais dos recém-nascidos, suscitaram-nos inquietações que nos levaram a desenvolver este estudo, com os objetivos de conhecer a vivência da enfermeira no cuidado ao recém-nascido e aos seus pais na UTIn e compreender como as enfermeiras vivenciam o processo de vínculo afetivo entre recém-nascidos internados em UTIn e seus pais. Realizamos a pesquisa de acordo com a abordagem da fenomenologia social de Alfred Schütz. Os sujeitos do estudo foram oito enfermeiras assistenciais, com experiências em UTIn de hospitais públicos e privados. Dentre as categorias concretas do vivido, que emergiram dos discursos, destacamos o Contato Humano. Os resultados da análise mostraram que as enfermeiras percebem-se como elo de aproximação entre filhos e pais e acreditam que exercem papel importante na formação de vínculo afetivo entre eles.

Efeitos da manipulação e da separação dos filhotes no período neonatal sobre o comportamento da mãe

A estimulação (manipulação) neonatal tem servido como modelo para observar os mecanismos pelos quais as variações no ambiente do recém-nascido podem afetar seu desenvolvimento quando adulto. Por outro lado, a separação maternal é um modelo que analisa a importância do cuidado parental para o desenvolvimento da prole. Quando adultos, ratos que foram manipulados periodicamente na infância apresentam menor reatividade ao estresse, enquanto aqueles que sofreram privação maternal periódica são mais medrosos e podem apresentar déficits de desenvolvimento e aprendizado. Este trabalho teve por objetivo investigar se a manipulação por 1 minuto ou a separação periódica por 180 minutos dos filhotes no período neonatal poderiam alterar o comportamento da mãe destes filhotes. Avaliou-se o tempo em que a mãe fica em contato com os filhotes, o tempo em que ela fica lambendo-os e a duração do comportamento de amamentação com o dorso arqueado. A duração destes comportamentos foi observada no primeiro, quinto e décimo dia após o nascimento, antes, logo após, 40 e 80 minutos após a manipulação e a separação, sendo que os filhotes foram submetidos a estes estresses durante os primeiros 10 dias pós-parto. Em conjunto, nossos resultados mostraram que tanto a manipulação por 1 minuto como a separação por 180 minutos aumentaram a duração do comportamento de lamber os filhotes nos primeiros dez dias após o parto. O aumento deste comportamento ocorreu imediatamente após o retorno dos filhotes à caixa, mas não se manteve alto e voltou ao nível do grupo controle após um período de tempo. No grupo manipulado houve uma redução do tempo em que a mãe fica junto aos filhotes logo após a manipulação, comparado aos outros grupos. Nossos resultados mostram que tanto a estimulação dos filhotes pela manipulação como a privação materna pelo afastamento prolongado provocam aumento do comportamento maternal, expressado pelo comportamento de lamber, logo após o retorno dos filhotes ao ninho. As alterações comportamentais ou de responsividade ao estresse no adulto, induzidas por eventos ambientais durante o período neonatal (manipulação ou privação materna) podem ser causadas pelo efeito da intervenção direta sobre os filhotes ou pela alteração do comportamento maternal.

Recém-nascido prematuro: suporte materno domiciliar para o cuidado

Este estudo descritivo, com abordagem qualitativa, teve como objetivo identificar o suporte materno, no domicílio, para o cuidado do recém-nascido prematuro egresso de Unidade Neonatal. O estudo, realizado em 2008, entrevistou doze mães residentes no município de Sumaré-SP. Os relatos, gravados, foram tratados pela técnica do Discurso do Sujeito Coletivo (DSC). Os resultados acrescem o conhecimento de enfermagem pela diversidade de recursos que emergiram, e que revelaram a importância da inserção materna na Unidade Neonatal; valorizaram a Cartilha de orientação oferecida pelo serviço; e destacaram a relevância do apoio social para o cuidado do bebê, no domicílio. Recomenda-se a inserção do familiar no plano de enfermagem para a alta do prematuro na Unidade Neonatal.

Atenção à criança no período neonatal: chamada neonatal, Rio Grande do Norte, 2010

The neonatal period, which includes the first 27 da ys postpartum, is a vulnerability phase in child health, making it necessary for a greater mon itoring by health professional through actions that add value to the binomial mother/child and comprehensive care to the newborn. To this end, this study aimed to evaluate the care actions the neonato from the strategies recommended by the Ministry of Health. This is a cr oss-sectional study carried out from the database of the national survey of population base entitled "Call Neonatal: evaluation of prenatal care and to children younger than one year old in the North and Northeast regions". It used as the sample unit the mothers and children yo unger than 1-year-old, costal residents of Rio Grande do Norte, Natal, Brazil, who attended th e vaccination campaign on June 12, 2010 in nine municipality’s priority for the Pact to Red uce Infant and Neonatal Mortality. To compose the study variables were selected issues/ac tions regarding the neonatal period and socio-demographic factors, followed by a descriptiv e and inferential analysis. A sample of 837 mother/child pairs was obtained, being 57.6% in capital and 42.4% in the whole from the interiors, which was weighted to represent the muni cipalities of the State. It was predominated by mothers aged between 20-29 years, complete high school, not entitled to income transfer program and male children (51.2%). The frequency of the actions of the hospital ranged from 35% to 96% and those performed at the Basic Health Unit (BHU) from 57% to 91.2%. Most actions had an association with hospitals and publi c nature of the state capital (p<0.05). The results for most of the actions are recommended in the care programs and policies for children, and reveal the regional inequities in hea lth and the need for the involvement of services and professionals in search of comprehensi ve care for enabling better care through humanized practices during this increased vulnerabi lity period.

A produção do cuidado no período gravídico-puerperal: experiência de mulheres usuárias de serviços públicos de saúde

Despite numerous government projects aimed at reorganizing and qualifying obstetric and neonatal care in Brazil, it remains problematic, with repercussions for maternal and newborn mortality and humanized care of both the mother and child. The objective of this study was to analyze the care provided to women during the pregnancy-puerperium cycle, based on reports of public health service users regarding their pregnancy and delivery experiences, using comprehensiveness and humanization as reference. The study applied a qualitative approach and the methodological strategy consisted of listening to the women, in order to identify, based on the meanings of their discourse concerning their experiences with health services, continuities and discontinuities of care during the pregnancy-puerperium cycle. Study participants were women who gave birth at a municipal public maternity, residents of Natal, Brazil, who at the time of the interviews, were between 10 and 42 days postpartum. Seven women reported their pregnancy and delivery experiences at public services. As interviews and observation took place, the material produced was also analyzed, in order to achieve simultaneous production and data analysis. Using systematization, a dialogue was established between the women’s discourses and production in the field of Collective Health, with respect to concepts and discussion about obstetric and neonatal care as well as the Comprehensiveness and Humanization of such care. Participant discourses underscored aspects related to prenatal care starting at pregnancy and its repercussions as well as prenatal monitoring by health services; aspects associated with care during labor and delivery, as well as those involved in postpartum in the maternity, both with respect to newborn and maternal careç and lastly, puerperium care after discharge from the maternity. Analysis of results sought to identify lines of continuity and discontinuity in the comprehensiveness and humanization of care. Based on these lines and as final contributions of the study, the following paths were proposed to achieve comprehensive and humanized production of health care for women during the pregnancy-puerperium cycle: Path 1- Reassess care in the maternal and newborn health network, aimed at comprehensiveness in terms of guaranteeing access to the various services and technological resources available to enhance health and life. Path 2- Reorganize work processes in order to attain comprehensive and humanized care for women in the pregnancy-puerperium cycle. Path 3 – Qualify the professional-user relationship in care management during the pregnancy-puerperium cycle. Path 4 – Invest in the qualification of communication processes in the different dimensions of care during the pregnancy-puerperium cycle.

Construção e validação do instrumento de investigação do conhecimento de gestantes sobre sua saúde bucal e a do seu bebê: perspectiva do cuidado em saúde

INTRODUCTION: Humanized and quality prenatal and post-partum care is critical to maternal and newborn health, as well as oral health care. Currently, the National Oral Health Policy is aiming at expanding dental care for pregnant women. Thus, the promotion of oral health and attention to prenatal care policies should be integrated; however, there is still limited participation of pregnant women. Thus, it is necessary to verify the knowledge of pregnant women related to oral health, seeking to estimate the quality of dental care provided during prenatal care, being essential for the Family Health strategy to organize personnel, plan costs and to ensure the quality standard of care. OBJECTIVE: To develop and validate a research instrument on the knowledge of pregnant women about their oral health and of their baby. METHOD: This is a construction and validation study with 93 pregnant women in Family Health Units and specialized private clinics in Obstetrics, in the city of Natal / RN. It was authorized by the Onofre Lopes University Hospital Ethics Committee of the Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte (UFRN) under the registration number 421.163/13. The construction of the instrument followed steps so that it was valid, reliable and sensitive: creation and reduction of the items (drafting of the instrument), content validity and testing of the instrument, and hypotheses validation. Once constructed, the instrument was evaluated by experts who suggested modifications. There was consultation with the target population about the new version of the created instrument, which had the instrument validation verified by internal consistency through intra and inter-calibration and test-retest. Next, the hypotheses were validated. A database was built in the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS), version 22.0. After creating the hypotheses, an association was found for validating the criteria between each of the specific issues for each established criteria, considering a 5% significance level. Data analysis was carried out by describing the absolute and relative frequencies of the variables pertaining to issues relating to their pregnancy knowledge about their oral health and their baby. The Kappa coefficient was used for the calibration process (Inter and Intra-examiner calibration) and Cronbach's alpha coefficient was used to analyze instrument reproducibility (test-retest). In addition, the chi-square test was used to cross the dependent variable with the (dichotomized) independent variables. RESULTS: The intra and inter agreement analysis presented a Kappa coefficient between 0.400 and 1.000. Internal consistency through the analysis showed that 90% of the instrument's questions showed great reliability in the answers (Cronbach α ˃ 0.7). In the investigation of the relationship between the dependent variable (knowledge about oral health) and the independent variables (trimester of pregnancy, education, income and multiparous), it was found that none of these independent variables were significantly associated. All hypotheses had their Ho confirmed. CONCLUSION: The constructed instrument was validated, considering that it showed to be sensitive with good reliability and good accuracy, and therefore can be used to assess pregnant women’s knowledge about their oral health and the oral health of their baby.
