Assistência em cuidados paliativos a pessoa idosa na atenção primária a saúde

This study aims to understand the significance of palliative care for the elder health care professionals working in primary health care. Descriptive study of qualitative approach. Conducted in three health units of the Family and a core of support for Health, the Felipe Camarão neighborhood, District of Natal Health West, RN. Of the 25 participants, 19 are professionals of the Family Health Strategy and six of the Center for Support to Health, the majority being women, with minimal professional work experience, a year in primary health care. The study was approved by the Ethics Committee of the Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte, under CAAE no. 43895815.4.0000.5537. There were individual interviews between July and September 2015, with the use of questionnaire containing open and closed questions on the topic of study. Our results were recorded in MP4 and transcribed into written language, and analyzed using the open coding process medium in which the categories were interpreted and identified, followed by axial coding, where categories were developed and systematically related. Three categories emerged: enhancement of elder health professionals in palliative care, behavioral health professionals across care in palliative care in primary care and disjointed Meaning between palliative care and health professionals. The categories were interpreted and analyzed by the theoretical framework of social phenomenology of Alfred Schütz. Regarding the valuation of subjective perception of professionals, it is clear the issue of the complexity of multiple relationships through various aspects of his central task: focus a philosophy of the world's reality, namely a phenomenology of natural attitude; Before the professional behavior were identified: the discovery and depth of assumptions through the structure, and meaning in a common sense, and at the meaning of the disconnection between the health professionals-including that reality imminent can be represented by individuality special interest of the experience. It follows that health professionals understand there is a difficulty facing the assistance in palliative care to the elderly in primary care, and this difficulty, characterized by the complexity of social interactions across the joint teamwork. Although, I believe that the articulation between the teams, work and family, is essential for the subsequent improvement of care in palliative care favoring the health context surrounding the Elder.

Intervenção social com crianças refugiadas: estratégias profissionais do Serviço Social com crianças refugiadas em Portugal

O objetivo principal é analisar a Intervenção social com crianças refugiadas em Portugal e as estratégias profissionais do Serviço Social como resposta às necessidades dessas crianças. Assim, pretendemos conhecer de que forma o assistente social, enquanto agente ativo na sociedade e capacitado de uma ação meditativa, produz respostas a esta problemática e conhecer também a realidade do nosso país relativamente à chegada de crianças refugiadas. A metodologia de investigação usada foi qualitativa tendo sido, realizado um questionário com oito perguntas fechadas e abertas, sendo divulgado on-line pelas redes sociais em grupos de serviço social. Foram recolhidas oito respostas, no entanto dois inquéritos não se enquadravam nos critérios de inclusão definidos pelo que foram excluídos. A partir dos dados obtidos foi possível perceber que existe uma estrutura preparada em Portugal para proceder ao acolhimento de crianças refugiadas sozinhas, que considera nos seus procedimentos o superior interesse da criança mas que padece ainda de algumas lacunas, nomeadamente ao nível da formação dos agentes de intervenção no terreno e do ensino da língua portuguesa. / The present study aimed to analyze the social intervention with refugee children in Portugal and the professional strategies of social workers in order to insure the needs of these children. Our main objective was to understand how the social worker, as an active agent in society and capable of a meditative action, produces answers to this problem and also know the reality of our country in respect to the arrival of refugee children. By the use of qualitative research methodology and the application of a questionnaire, composed with eight open and closed questions, published online in social networks of social service groups, we came up with eight responses. However two surveys did not fit the inclusion criteria defined and, therefore, were excluded. From the data obtained it was revealed that there is a structure prepared in Portugal to carry out the reception of refugee unattended children. It is a structure that considers the procedures regarding the best interests of the child, but it still suffers from some shortcomings, particularly in terms of training of intervention agents on the ground and in the tutorship of Portuguese language.

Políticas de Austeridade, Serviço Social e Direitos das Crianças: o Serviço Social nas CPCJ do Distrito de Leiria

Objetivo. Este estudo reflete sobre o impacto das políticas neoliberais e a austeridade na vida das famílias e das suas crianças, no sistema de promoção e proteção de crianças e jovens em perigo e na prática profissional dos assistentes sociais que nele trabalham na defesa dos direitos devidos a essas crianças. Partiu-se da análise do enfraquecimento do estado social, para se perceber o desmonte das políticas públicas e as suas implicações na carreira profissional e nas condições de trabalho do assistente social. Assiste-se à transição de responsabilidades da esfera pública para a sociedade civil, no caso específico das políticas de proteção à infância. Participantes. Existindo necessidade de constituir uma amostra para a realização do estudo, optámos por uma amostra não-probabilística de informadores estratégicos. O critério de inclusão foi ser assistente social a desempenhar funções na CPCJ do distrito de Leiria. Com este critério responderam ao questionário 10 Assistentes Sociais, num total de 16 solicitações às CPCJ do distrito de Leiria. A recolha de informação através da aplicação dos inquéritos decorreu entre o mês de maio e junho de 2015. Material e métodos. A recolha de dados, para poder responder à questão em análise, foi feita com a aplicação de um inquérito por questionário online, com perguntas fechadas e abertas. Resultados. O Neoliberalismo atinge a prática profissional do assistente social, pela redução de recursos para o estudo diagnóstico das crianças e suas famílias e pela redução de técnicos superiores especializados na intervenção. Os Direitos das Crianças no sistema de promoção e proteção não se encontram devidamente asseverados, na medida em que estas comungam do sucessivo empobrecimento das suas famílias, sendo privadas da satisfação das necessidades básicas para o seu saudável desenvolvimento. Implicações. Os resultados deste estudo compelem a uma clara necessidade de lhe dar continuidade de âmbito nacional, para entender e melhorar as expressões do trabalho do assistente social desenvolvido com as crianças e suas famílias, no sistema de promoção e proteção. É necessário construir e consolidar uma manifestação de espírito crítico na classe profissional, no sentido de pugnar pelo projeto ético – político, bem como atribuir ao Serviço Social o estatuto de disciplina especializada. Nesta qualidade, a profissão deve participar na análise e na discussão das políticas para a infância, para assim colocar as necessidades das crianças, no centro das obrigações públicas. / Objective: This study concerns the impact of the neoliberal and austerity policies in the life of the families and their children, in the protection system of children and young people at risk and in the professional practice of the social workers, who work to defend the rights owed to those children. It started with the analysis of the weaknesses of the social state to understand the deconstruction of the public policies and the implications in the professional career and working conditions of the social worker. It can be noticed that there is a transition of responsibilities from the public sphere to the civil society in the specific case of the childhood protection policies. Participants: Due to the need to build a sample to perform the study, we chose a nonprobabilistic sample of strategic informers. The inclusion criterion was being a social worker performing duties in the CPCJs in the District of Leiria. 10 social workers answered the questionnaire with this criterion, out of a total of 16 requests to the CPCJs of the District of Leiria. The gathering of the information through the use of the questionnaires was done between the months of May and June 2015. Material and Methods: The gathering of data, to be able to answer the question under analysis, was done through the use of online questionnaires, with both open and closed questions. Results: The Neoliberalism affects the professional practice of the social worker, by reducing the resources, in the diagnostic study of the children and their families, by reducing specialized superior technicians in the intervention. The rights of the children in the protection system are not properly secure as they are affected by the continuous impoverishment of their families, being deprived of satisfying their basic needs, which are essential to their healthy development. Implications: The results of this study indicate a clear necessity to give it some continuity at a national level, to understand and improve the expressions of the social worker’s job being developed with the children and their families, in the promotion and protection system. It is necessary to build and consolidate some form of critical mind in the professional class, as to fight for the ethical-political project, as well as to give to the social service the statute of specialized discipline. Therefore, the profession should participate in the analysis and discussion of the policies concerning the childhood, being then able to place the needs of the children, in the centre of the public obligations.

Tração de caninos superiores inclusos

Hoje em dia o médico dentista depara-se frequentemente com situações de inclusão canina. Sendo o canino um dente fundamental para o desenvolvimento harmonioso da estética dentária, facial e da função mastigatória, torna-se importante estudar abordagens que solucionem esta condição. Várias abordagens multidisciplinares têm sido desenvolvidas com recurso à Ortodontia, Cirurgia, Periodontia e Dentisteria. O objetivo desta revisão bibliográfica é o estudo e comparação de duas técnicas cirúrgicas de exposição de caninos inclusos maxilares: técnica aberta e técnica fechada. A técnica aberta consiste na exposição do canino, isolamento da área cirúrgica recorrendo a um cimento periodontal e posterior instalação de um acessório com vista à tração ortodôntica. Na técnica fechada a exposição cirúrgica e a instalação do acessório de tração são executados na mesma consulta, procedendo-se de seguida ao fecho e sutura do retalho. A escolha da técnica tem por base critérios como a localização vestíbulo-palatina, a quantidade de gengiva aderida presente na área de inclusão, posição mésio-distal e vertical da coroa do canino. Existe controvérsia entre os autores no que toca à escolha da técnica cirúrgica a utilizar. Nesse sentido são expostas as vantagens, desvantagens, indicações e protocolos de cada técnica, de modo a obter um melhor entendimento do tema. Existem também diversas opções em relação à escolha do dispositivo de tração ortodôntica a utilizar. Na década de 60 começou por se utilizar a técnica do laço de fio de aço, no entanto a manifestação de problemas periodontais decorrentes da sua utilização, bem como a evolução dos sistemas adesivos levaram ao desenvolvimento de acessórios de colagem direta e o uso de correntes metálicas.

Caracterização da abordagem familiar em crianças vitimas de maus tratos incluídas nos projectos de intervenção precoce

Nas últimas décadas a Intervenção Precoce tem demonstrado a sua utilidade no trabalho com as crianças e as suas famílias. Sendo consensual a sua importância, importa, também, que seja objecto de reflexão e investigação. O distrito de Évora é pioneiro na implementação de estratégias na área da Intervenção Precoce, desde o final da década de 80, apresentando, uma vasta experiência organizacional. Por isso entendemos ser o local ideal para a execução deste estudo, com o qual pretendemos conhecer e caracterizar os vários intervenientes nas práticas da Intervenção Precoce e, fundamentalmente, as abordagens que são realizadas às famílias em que ocorrem maus tratos infantis. O desenho metodológico utilizado assenta num estudo descritivo utilizando métodos quantitativos e qualitativos. Para a recolha de dados foi utilizado o questionário auto-preenchido, com questões abertas e fechadas, fazendo-se posteriormente o tratamento estatístico dos dados e a análise de conteúdo das respostas. A população deste estudo foi formada pelos técnicos de todas as equipas de Intervenção Precoce do distrito de Évora. Nunca perdendo de vista a perspectiva ecológica/sistémica, a realização deste estudo proporciona-nos uma visão dos diversos contextos ambientais e sistémicos existentes nas abordagens realizadas às famílias, evidenciando a importância e a adequação de estratégias que promovam a competência das famílias. ABSTRACT; ln the last decades Early Intervention has demonstrated its usefulness towards the children and their families. Therefore further ponderation and investigation on the subject is most important. The Évora district pioneers the implementation of Early Intervention strategies, since the late 80’s and hence, vast organization experience. This makes it the ideal location to implement this study, which aims to learn and characterize the participants in the Early Intervention, and also the approaches directed at the families where child abuse occurs. The methodical design of this study is descriptive, and both quantitative and qualitative in method. The data was collected by a self-completed questionnaire, composed of open and closed questions, and then subjected to statistic and content analysis. The study population was composed by the technicians of all the teams in the Early Intervention program, of the Évora district. While not neglecting the ecological/systemic perspective, of this study, it allowed us an overall outlook of the various environmental and systemic contexts, that exist regarding the families and thus their importance in promoting the family competences was underlined.
