O envelhecimento carateriza-se pelo declínio das capacidades físicas e cognitivas aumentando a suscetibilidade do idoso à dependência. Este fator, juntamente com as alterações fisiológicas da pele potenciam o aparecimento de quebras cutâneas. Estas feridas são frequentes nos idosos e muitas vezes estão relacionadas com a forma como são cuidados. O cuidar em humanitude é uma filosofia prática de cuidados que proscreve intervenções em força. Este estudo pretende identificar e analisar as evidências científicas, atualmente existentes, relacionadas com o contributo de cuidar em humanitude na redução da agitação das pessoas cuidadas, bem como na prevenção de quebras cutâneas no idoso dependente. A metodologia utilizada teve por base uma Revisão Integrativa da Literatura, cuja finalidade consistiu em responder à questão de investigação: "Qual o contributo de cuidar com Humanitude na prevenção de quebras cutâneas nas pessoas idosas dependentes com demência? Os resultados evidenciam que a aplicação da Metodologia de Cuidar Humanitude, por utilizar técnicas suaves no cuidar a pessoa, demonstra particular efetividade em idosos dependentes, reduzindo os comportamentos de agitação patológica e oposição/recusa aos cuidados, prevenindo as forças de cisalhamento, fricção e contusão na pele.

A pele é o órgão que protege o organismo contra ações mecânicas, térmicas e químicas e agentes agressores infecciosos e tóxicos. Na população infantil, observa-se uma grande procura pelo auxílio médico no tratamento de infecções cutâneas. As dermatoses são doenças com manifestações cutâneas e que podem alcançar repercussões sistêmicas. O presente estudo teve como objetivo principal realizar um plano de intervenção para reduzir o número de crianças diagnosticadas com as principais infecções cutâneas na população pediátrica compreendida na faixa etária de 0 a 10 anos e que foram atendidas na Unidade Básica de Saúde Sagrada Família em União dos Palmares, AL. O projeto teve como princípios o Planejamento Estratégico Situacional - PES conforme Campos, Faria, Santos (2010) e uma pesquisa bibliográfica utilizando as bases de dados da LILACS e SciELO. Utilizaram-se os descritores de Ciências da Saúde como: dermatose, educação em saúde e infantil. Foram estudados os pacientes encontrados na sala de espera durante os meses de coleta de dados. Os dados foram extraídos do registro administrativo de datas e prontuários ao longo do primeiro semestre de 2015

BACKGROUND: Strictureplasty is an alternative surgical procedure for Crohn?s disease, particulary in patients with previous resections or many intestinal stenosis. AIM: To analyze surgical complications and clinical follow-up in patients submitted to strictureplasty secondary to Crohn?s disease. METHODS: Twenty-eight patients (57.1% male, mean age 33.3 years, range 16-54 years) with Crohn?s disease and intestinal stenosis (small bowel, ileocecal region and ileocolic anastomosis) were submitted to strictureplasty, at one institution, between September 1991 and May 2004. Thirteen patients had previous intestinal resections. The mean follow-up was 58.1 months. A total of 116 strictureplasties were done (94 Heineke-Mikulicz - 81%, 15 Finney - 13%, seven side-to-side ileocolic strictureplasty - 6%). Three patients were submitted to strictureplasty at two different surgical procedures and two in three procedures. RESULTS: Regarding to strictureplasty, postoperative complication rate was 25% and mortality was 3.6%. Early local complication rate was 57.1%, with three suture leaks (10.7%) and late complication was present in two patients, both with incisional hernial and enterocutaneous fistulas (28.6%). Patients remained hospitalized during a medium time of 12.4 days. Clinical and surgical recurrence rates were 63% and 41%, respectively. Among the patients submitted to another surgery, two patients had two more operations and one had three. Recurrence rate at strictureplasty site was observed in 3.5%, being Finney technique the commonest one. Presently, 19 patients had been asymptomatic with the majority of them under medical therapy. CONCLUSION: Strictureplasties have low complication rates, in spite of having been done at compromised site, with long term pain relief. Considering the clinical course of Crohn?s disease, with many patients being submitted to intestinal resections, strictureplasties should be considered as an effective surgical treatment to spare long intestinal resections.

The objectives were to identify factors associated with decreased life satisfaction in community-dwelling elderly and describe such factors according to gender and age bracket. The study interviewed 2,472 elderly individuals 65 years or older without cognitive deficits suggestive of dementia, in probabilistic samples from seven Brazilian cities. All measures were self-reported except for functional performance, indicated by handgrip and gait speed. Women had more chronic diseases, worse functional performance, and greater social involvement when compared to men. The oldest participants showed worse functional performance and less social involvement when compared to the youngest. Low satisfaction was associated with three or more diseases, memory problems, low social involvement, low handgrip strength, and urinary incontinence. The authors conclude that health, functional performance, and social involvement interact with well-being, so interventions targeting these areas can favor quality of life for the elderly.

INTRODUCTION: Armies from all over the world acknowledge the importance of good physical fitness for the performance of military duties. The Military Exercise Training (MET) attempts to provide assistance to this search for better physical fitness and performance. OBJECTIVE: To verifying the effect on the body composition and physical performance of the students at ESPCEX (Military School for Preparation of Army Cadets) after 13 weeks of MET. METHODS: The sample was formed by 287 male students from the ESPCEX, whose average age was 18.33 ±1.26. Such students accomplished a boarding school routine, having defined schedules, meals and activities from which they were only released during the weekends. The MET was accomplished five days a week and it comprised both aerobic and resistance training. Measurement of body mass, height, skinfold (triceps, abdominal and suprailiac) was accomplished during pre and post training periods, and the following tests were performed: 12-minutes-run, oblique sit up, arm push up and pull up. Fat percentage, fat-free body mass and fat body mass were calculated using the anthropometric data based on the Guedes 3 skinfold protocol. RESULTS: Significant reduction in fat body mass, fat percentage and in triceptal and abdominal skinfold, as well as increase in suprailiac skinfold and fat-free body mass was observed when anthropometric and body composition data were compared, during the initial and the final periods of training. Significant improvement also occurred in all prformed physical tests, in which better performance was achieved. CONCLUSION: The acquired data suggest that performance of MET 5 days a week brought significantly improved body composition as well as physical performance
