La historia de enfermería: trascendencia del fenómeno cuidado y su relación con el tiempo

La historia es una disciplina que contribuye a la enfermería para dejar huella de la trascendencia de su quehacer profesional, el cuidado. La estrecha vinculación con el tiempo nos remite a Martin Heidegger como el filósofo que plantea una articulación inseparable entre el tiempo y el ser a través del cuidado. Por lo que se reflexiona sobre el contexto filosófico del cuidado y su relación con el tiempo, que permite identificar una paradoja en el quehacer profesional de enfermería, quienes se encuentran cumpliendo horarios, rutinas y actividades fuera de la cuestión ética de otorgar un momento para cada cosa, afectado por aceleradas dinámicas, sobrepoblación de pacientes en las instituciones de salud, haciendo imposible proporcionar el cuidado como tal, ya que su temporalidad consiste en satisfacer las necesidades para la existencia de la persona a partir de cuidados que permitan conceptualizarlo como un ser completo y en ese sentido, contar con los tiempos necesarios para poder realizar de manera satisfactoria un cuidado con calidad y fomentar el proceso de la construcción de la disciplina.

Indicadores para a caracterização de níveis de segurança rodoviária : análise de casos de interseções

Com o decorrer dos anos a sinistralidade rodoviária tem vindo a decrescer. Porém é necessário continuar a apostar na melhoria dos indicadores. O trabalho inicia-se com uma revisão bibliográfica de enquadramento, de modo a evidenciar os aspetos relacionados com a avaliação da segurança rodoviária e as eventuais medidas mitigadoras. Determinaram-se alguns indicadores que foram utilizados para medir a sinistralidade rodoviária em interseções em meio urbano, tendo-se como estudo de caso a rede da cidade de Coimbra, de 2010 a 2012. Para isso, recorreu-se ao ArcGIS 10.0 que é um Sistema de Informação Geográfica (SIG), utilizando a base de dados facultada pela Autoridade Nacional de Segurança Rodoviária (ANSR), complementada com informação dos acidentes recolhidos pela PSP de Coimbra. Consideraram-se na análise as vias com 4 ou mais acidentes em pelo menos um ano. Após georreferenciação dos acidentes rodoviários, o SIG permitiu visualizar a sua distribuição na rede, bem como associar a cada um deles o esquema do acidente disponibilizado pela Polícia de Segurança Pública. Os procedimentos envolvidos nas análises dizem respeito ao Índice de Gravidade (IG) e ao Valor Hierárquico do Local (VHL). Por se ter verificado que o VHL traduz melhor o desempenho em termos de sinistralidade em meio urbano, foi este o parâmetro utilizado para identificar as interseções sobre as quais deveria incidir a atenção da entidade gestora da rede. O VHL é determinado com base no número de ocorrências, na gravidade dos acidentes e no volume horário de tráfego, tendo-se considerado a informação de sinistralidade de duas formas distintas: dados de forma agregada no triénio; e dados separados para cada um dos anos. De forma a comparar de forma simples o desempenho das interseções, fez-se a normalização da variável VHL de modo a ser possível assinalar as interseções com níveis de desempenho de 1, 2, 3, 4 ou 5. Nesta escala, 1 corresponde ao melhor desempenho e 5 refere-se ao pior desempenho. As interseções identificadas com o nível 5 e 4 devem ter uma atenção privilegiada por parte da entidade gestora por serem as que revelam pior desempenho. A metodologia utilizada pode ser aplicada a redes viárias de aglomerados urbanos desde que se disponha de dados de acidentes em três anos consecutivos e seja possível fazer a sua georeferenciação, sendo também necessários dados de volumes horários de tráfego, os quais podem ser obtidos por contagens em vários pontos da rede.

Obama in Cuba: polarização e participação ativa no twitter

A histórica visita do presidente americano Barack Obama a Cuba, esta semana, impulsionou a presença dos cubanos nas redes sociais – e o debate sobre antigas questões políticas envolvendo a ilha e a difícil relação com os Estados Unidos, que apresenta contornos de conciliação, finalmente, após mais de cinco décadas. A Diretoria de Análise de Políticas Públicas (FGV/DAPP) identificou das 08h de segunda-feira, 21 de março, às 11h de terça (22) mais de 1,6 milhão de menções no Twitter sobre o assunto no mundo inteiro, sendo 800 mil entre as 10h e as 18h de segunda (horários de Brasília), quando Obama iniciou um passeio por Havana e fez uma coletiva de imprensa com o presidente cubano, Raúl Castro.

TV BRASIL: UMA EMISSORA PÚBLICA EM CONSTRUÇÃO Ações e controvérsias 2007-2010 Universidade Metodista

A pesquisa verifica em que medida a TV Brasil, criada no país em 2007 pelo presidente Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, se constitui, de fato, em um modelo democrático de TV pública, com o objetivo de desenvolver a consciência crítica do cidadão, mediante programação educativa, artística, cultural, informativa, cientifica e promotora da cidadania , como determina seu Estatuto. O trabalho descreve e analisa o processo de construção da emissora no período de 2007-2010. Examina as relações de poder e o debate entre os diferentes setores do governo e da sociedade civil organizada, envolvidos no processo de democratização da radiodifusão brasileira, e na criação e implementação do modelo de televisão pública no Brasil. Discute os processos de gestão, de produção e de financiamento da emissora, incluindo o sistema de pitching1 adotado. Define como é constituído o perfil da emissora, com base na descrição da grade semanal de programação, distribuída em horários e gêneros, através de um mapeamento geral dos programas, e uma breve análise comparativa da grade entre três emissoras: TV Globo, TV Cultura e TV Brasil 2009-2010. Trata-se de uma pesquisa exploratória. A metodologia central é a de Estudo de Caso (YIN, 2005), de natureza qualitativa. Examina as mudanças e tendências apresentadas no decorrer do período estudado. Apesar de existirem dificuldades de gestão e de ordem técnica relacionadas à transmissão, abrangência e qualidade do sinal, bem como a da ausência de verbas para a divulgação e constituição de sua programação, a TV Brasil oferece um novo paradigma para o campo público de rádio e televisão. Confirma, assim, sua viabilidade como um modelo alternativo e democrático de gestão e de funcionamento da televisão pública no país, ao se transformar num agente de fomento para a integração da sociedade brasileira. Vale ressaltar, no entanto, que a emissora encontra-se, ainda, em busca de novos caminhos e deverá aperfeiçoar-se ao longo do processo de sua consolidação, seja no âmbito de sua gestão ou de sua programação.

QUALIDADE DE VIDA DE PROFESSORES DA REDE PÚBLICA DE SÃO BERNARDO DO CAMPO

A presente dissertação de mestrado teve como objetivo avaliar a qualidade de vida e a saúde mental de 154 professores do ensino fundamental da rede publica de São Bernardo do Campo. Trata-se de um estudo descritivo do tipo transversal e os dados foram coletados nas escolas onde lecionam nos horários de HTPC. Os instrumentos utilizados foram: WHOQOL-bref, Questionário sócio-demográfico, Questionário de avaliação de nível sócio-econômico, Questionário de Morbidade Psiquiátrica de adultos - QMPA e o SF-36. Os resultados obtidos mostraram que a qualidade de vida dos professores (WHOQOL-bref) tende a ser regular, no SF-36 a qualidade de vida na capacidade funcional, aspecto físico e aspectos sociais tendem a ser positivas. Mas, os indicadores das facetas: dor, estado geral de saúde, aspectos emocionais, saúde mental e principalmente vitalidade tendem a ser negativos. Os dados obtidos no questionário de morbidade psiquiátrica indicaram morbidade psiquiátrica em 33% dos professores. As correlações estabelecidas mostraram que quanto maior os indicadores psicopatológicos (QMPA) pior a qualidade de vida (WHOQOL-bref e SF-36). Concluiu-se nesse estudo que um professor com a qualidade de vida e com saúde mental é um professor com uma jornada de trabalho não extensa, que garanta um tempo para o descanso e momentos de lazer. Os professores mais velhos que diminuíram sua carga de trabalho apresentam melhor qualidade de vida e ausência de morbidade psiquiátrica

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 tipo de abrigo e da frequência de oferta alimentar no comportamento do camarão Macrobrachium rosenbergii (De Man 1879)

Macrobrachium rosenbergii is a freshwater prawn which presents agonistic behavior and heterogeneous growth. It is known that captive conditions can intensify agonism causing injuries and decreased survival, generating a condition of poor welfare. Based on this, we aim to investigate the behavior of M. rosenbergii in the juvenile phase according to different types of shelter and frequencies of feed offer, emphasizing their agonistic behavior. For this, juveniles were observed in the laboratory in three steps. At step I we characterized the behavioral profile; prawns were kept in eight aquariums (27 prawns/m2 ), identified and observed four times along both phases of 24 h light cycle. At step II (2 experiments), we evaluated the use of shelters (brick or polyethylene rolls) and their influence on agonism by the animals. For classification of animals in dominance rank, the method used was David's Score. At step III (3 experiments), we evaluated different frequencies of feed offer on the behavior of individuals, in particular agonism. Results showed that juveniles do not present a pattern activity/inactivity between the phases of the light cycle. We identified a dominance hierarchy among individuals taking advantage of access to food by the dominant, which showed greater weight gain although the frequency of intake did not differ between individuals. The type of shelter influenced the behavior of animals. Brick shelter generated a higher frequency of permanence and a reduction in the frequency of agonistic interactions. The distribution of food more frequently throughout the day, decreased the motivation of animals for food, as well as to fight. Prawns fed four times showed lower frequency of feed intake and agonistic interactions. Thus, we conclude the shelters which reduce animal’s detection by coespecifics and offer the food four times along the day reduce agonistic behavior. This result causes na improvement in life quality of the prawns and also in its quality as final product.

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.

Otimização do sistema de supervisão e controle de uma planta de tratamento de resíduos utilizando plasma

A major and growing problems faced by modern society is the high production of waste and related effects they produce, such as environmental degradation and pollution of various ecosystems, with direct effects on quality of life. The thermal treatment technologies have been widely used in the treatment of these wastes and thermal plasma is gaining importance in processing blanketing. This work is focused on developing an optimized system of supervision and control applied to a processing plant and petrochemical waste effluents using thermal plasma. The system is basically composed of a inductive plasma torch reactors washing system / exhaust gases and RF power used to generate plasma. The process of supervision and control of the plant is of paramount importance in the development of the ultimate goal. For this reason, various subsidies were created in the search for greater efficiency in the process, generating events, graphics / distribution and storage of data for each subsystem of the plant, process execution, control and 3D visualization of each subsystem of the plant between others. A communication platform between the virtual 3D plant architecture and a real control structure (hardware) was created. The goal is to use the concepts of mixed reality and develop strategies for different types of controls that allow manipulating 3D plant without restrictions and schedules, optimize the actual process. Studies have shown that one of the best ways to implement the control of generation inductively coupled plasma techniques is to use intelligent control, both for their efficiency in the results is low for its implementation, without requiring a specific model. The control strategy using Fuzzy Logic (Fuzzy-PI) was developed and implemented, and the results showed satisfactory condition on response time and viability

Desempenho zootécnico dos camarões: Litopenaeus vannamei e Macrobrachium rosenbergii em tanques rede e aquicultura familiar na comunidade de Bebida-Velha, RN

The study aims to evaluate the performance and identify lesions of agonistic interactions of Macrobrachium rosenbergii in different densities cages (chapter 1); compare the growth performance of shrimp M. rosenbergii and Litopenaus vannamei cages (chatper 2); in addition the study aimed at identifying the knowledge and practices of a traditional community of farmers Bebida-Velha, in the city of Pureza / RN, practicing rural family and aquaculture, as well as tracing the community socioeconomic profile and evaluate the management that these farmers use in shrimp farming Macrobrachium rosenbergii (chapter 3). To perform the experiments (chapter 1 and 2) shrimp species L. vannamei and M. rosenbergii were weighed on a digital scale and transferred to cultures in cages. The cages had 1m³, with 5mm mesh between us and were closed on top with screen to avoid predators (birds, insects). The animals remained in adaptation for fifteen days before the start of data collection (each experiment). Both experiments lasted seventy days, totaling eighty-five days cultivation. During the cultures, animals were fed pelleted feed for shrimp at 10% of their biomass with 35% crude protein, offered in feed trays twice a day during the hours (7:00 am and 14:00 pm). The remnants in the tray were removed after 2h of permanence to calculate intake. To determine the performance parameters, some samples were taken every 10 days. The results of both experiments were analyzed using the STATISTIC 7.0 (2004). In Chapter 1 experiment were applied5 treatments were applied with 5 replications each: D5 - 5 animals/m2 ; D10 - 10 animals/m2 ; D15 - 15 animals/m2 ; D20 - 20 animals/m2 ; D25 - 25 animals/m2 . To this, were distributed 25 cages randomly in two masonry nurseries. The end of the experiment the lesions were verified and quantified. The chapter 2 experiment began when the shrimp reached the same age (eighty-four days) and was used the density of 25 shrimp / m2 with 4 repetitions. For the realization of chapter 3 were applied semi-structured interviews by direct approach of Bebida Velha of settlers practicing aquaculture activity, tilapia producers and community shrimp. Data were tabulated and analyzed according to the responses obtained by the participants. Therefore, the amount of damage increased with increasing stocking density. The density of 10 freshwater shrimp/m² showed the best conditions for a better performance in cages. It can be concluded that in cages, the cultivation of species of fresh water shrimp M. rosenbergii had better zootechnical indexes than the cultivation of marine shrimp species L. 9 vannamei. It was possible to verify that the activities of which the interviewees practice guarantee a good quality of life and income for them. We find that respondents have traditional and local knowledge, and also may be interested in the cultivation of the species M. rosenbergii.

Visita interprofissional da cardiologia: uma estratégia de educação interprofissional na área da saúde na Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte

The interprofessional education still represents a great challenge for the health education. This paper aims at implementing the Interprofessional Cardiology Visit (VIC, acronym in Portuguese) as a teaching strategy for the interprofessional education in the undergraduate and graduate courses of UFRN (Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte, acronym in Portuguese). It is a prospective and exploratory study held from March 2013 to November 2014, in the cardiology department of HUOL (Portuguese acronym for Onofre Lopes University Hospital), including health professionals from the mentioned hospital (doctor, psycologist, physiotherapist, dentist, social assistant, nutritionist, pharmacist and nurse), undergraduate and graduate students from the health courses of UFRN. The study happened in three parts: interprofessional activity planning; Implementation of the activity “Interprofessional Cardiology Visit (VIC)”; and Activity evaluation, this last one was made through focus groups. The process of planning and implementation of the VIC was described during the implementation phase: 60 meetings in which 1324 participants discussed one specific patient per meeting. After each case presentation, an interprofessional discussion was held, pointing out each professional’s specific point of view towards improving the overall care of that discussed patient. From the focus group analysis, five categories emerged: Recognition of previous participations in interprofessional activities; Conceptual vision of interprofessional activities; Impacts of the VIC to the patient’s care; Contributions of VIC to the professional training; and Challenges of VIC continuation. The making and planning of VIC process has reached its goals, despite of some health professional’s participation not being systematic due to work overload, such as the nurses’ case, as well as schedule difficulties. The VIC was praised as a successful experience and considered an initiative with positive impact for improving the care of patients with heart diseases. It is clear, from analyzing the discourses, that the VIC is a strategy which positively impacts both the care and the teaching. However, some difficulties remain, such as the lack of human resources and the challenge of making it systematic.

Caracterização do ritmo circadiano de atividade e repouso em saguis idosos (Callithrix Jacchus)

Advanced age may become a limiting factor for the maintenance of rhythms in organisms, reducing the capacity of generation and synchronization of biological rhythms. In this study, the influence of aging on the expression of endogenous periodicity and synchronization (photic and social) of the circadian activity rhythm (CAR) was evaluated in a diurnal primate, the marmoset (Callithrix jacchus). This study had two approaches: one with longitudinal design, performed with a male marmoset in two different phases: adult (three years) and older (9 y.o.) (study 1) and the second, a transversal approach, with 6 old (♂: 9.7 ± 2.0 y.o.) and 11 adults animals (♂: 4.2 ± 0.8 y.o.) (study 2). The evaluation of the photic synchronization involved two conditions in LD (natural and artificial illuminations). In study 1, the animal was subjected to the following stages: LD (12:12 ~ 350: ~ 2 lx), LL (~ 350 lx) and LD resynchronization. In the second study, the animals were initially evaluated in natural LD, and then the same sequence stages of study 1. During the LL stage in study 2, the vocalizations of conspecifics kept in natural LD on the outside of the colony were considered temporal cue to the social synchronization. The record of the activity was performed automatically at intervals of five minutes through infrared sensor and actimeters, in studies 1 and 2, respectively. In general, the aged showed a more fragmented activity pattern (> IV < H and > PSD, ANOVA, p < 0.05), lower levels of activity (ANOVA, p < 0.05) and shorter duration of active phase (ANOVA, p < 0.05) in LD conditions, when compared to adults. In natural LD, the aged presented phase delay pronounced for onset and offset of active phase (ANOVA, p < 0.05), while the adults had the active phase more adjusted to light phase. Under artificial LD, there was phase advance and greater adjustment of onset and offset of activity in relation to the LD in the aged (ANOVA, p < 0.05). In LL, there was a positive correlation between age and the endogenous period () in the first 20 days (Spearman correlation, p < 0.05), with prolonged  held in two aged animals. In this condition, most adults showed free-running period of the circadian activity rhythm with  < 24 h for the first 30 days and later on relative coordination mediated by auditory cues. In study 2, the cross-correlation analysis between the activity profiles of the animals in LL with control animals kept under natural LD, found that there was less social synchronization in the aged. With the resubmission to the LD, the resynchronization rate was slower in the aged (t-test; p < 0.05) and in just one aged animal there was a loss of resynchronization capability. According to the data set, it is suggested that the aging in marmosets may be related to: 1) lower amplitude and greater fragmentation of the activity, accompanied to phase delay with extension of period, caused by changes in a photic input, in the generation and behavioral expression of the CAR; 2) lower capacity of the circadian activity rhythm to photic synchronization, that can become more robust in artificial lighting conditions, possibly due to the higher light intensities at the beginning of the active phase due to the abrupt transitions between the light and dark phases; and 3) smaller capacity of non-photic synchronization for auditory cues from conspecifics, possibly due to reducing sensory inputs and responsiveness of the circadian oscillators to auditory cues, what can make the aged marmoset most vulnerable, as these social cues may act as an important supporting factor for the photic synchronization.
