Adoção da energia solar fotovoltaica em hospitais: revisando a literatura e algumas experiências internacionais

The sun has an extremely important role in the existence of human beings, and Brazil has a privileged geographical position to explore sunlight. The union of these two factors favors the use of solar cells for converting solar energy into electricity by photovoltaic technology: it is a great alternative energy source, especially for being a clean one, causing less damage to the environment. This paper addresses the photovoltaic technology with a focus on hospitals, through case studies found in international literature, because hospitals, even running all important services to society, have a potential for pollution capable of causing damage to human health and the environment that is around them. It is estimated that the Brazilian oil reserves are sufficient for twenty-two years. This makes the search for alternative sources for power generation a necessity.

O impacto do Método Mãe Canguru no processo de aprendizagem de prematuros de baixo peso: Revisão da literatura

Technology advances and scientific studies in Neonatal Intensive Care Units (NICU) have contributed significantly to reduce mortality and morbidity of at-risk newborns (NB). However, they are more likely to present neurological and/or developmental psychomotor delay with neurological and sensory alterations. Therefore, proposals for neonatal intervention were developed with the aim of protecting the baby and offering appropriate incentives to minimize the effects of hospital intervention. To this end, programs of protective measures such as the Kangaroo Mother Care (KMC) were developed. Given the relevance of the issue described, this systematic review critically appraises articles from the national and international literature, published in recent years (from 2000 to 2011), that describe whether the KMC can be a protective factor for the development of writing in premature infants. The textual search was conducted using the Virtual Health Library (VHL), a website that covers publications worldwide, allowing access to articles from health science, including LILACS, IBECS, MEDLINE, Cochrane Library and SciELO, as database. The findings revealed that infants who participated in the KMC program showed improvements in their development and that factors such as low-birth-weight prematurity and learning disorders have close relationship with the onset of motor impairments and changes in psychomotor development. The findings showed no articles describing the KMC as a protective factor for the incidence of dysgraphia. Thus, we emphasize the importance of conducting further studies on these topics.

Recursos de Alta-Tecnologia Assistiva Disponíveis no Mercado Nacional:ferramentas para alunos com paralisia cerebral

In Brazil, the interest on the applicability of assistive technology resources in the school environment has grown for children with cerebral palsy, according to the evidences on the diffi culties in their process of scholarization. The objective of the project was the construction of a data base about the resources of high assistive technology in the national market, indicated for the use in the classroom environment for children with cerebral palsy, with the purpose to systemize information, to assist in the selection, prescription and implementation of this type of resource. From a search in the literature available in existing national sites, a computerized archive on the availability of these resources was constructed, having as parameters the applied methodology already used in previous study. Therefore, information on adapted resources had been systemized, constituting an accessible source of data to all the interested parties, aiming to contribute for a effective implementation of these resources in the promotion of the scholarization of children with cerebral palsy in the country.

Tecnologia assistiva para a criança com paralisia cerebral na escola: identificação das necessidades

Studies about Assistive Technology have emphasized the need to integrate resources, services and strategies for inclusion and special education to foster the learning process and skill development of students with disabilities. The literature describes that the first step towards implementing assistive technology in schools should enable professionals to understand the situation involving the student in order to expand his or her participation in the teaching and learning process. This study aimed to identify the need for assistive technology services, resources and strategies for students with cerebral palsy in school. Two children with cerebral palsy and their teachers were selected. The data collection phase included three successive procedures: interviews with teachers, completing the identification protocol of the school routine and participant observation conducted in the classroom using filming and field diary. Based on the material gained from these three procedures, data triangulation was proposed, i.e., grouping information in a single document in order to establish categories of analysis. After preparing the material, the categories were assessed by judges from the field of knowledge. The results showed that after understanding the situation of the disabled student within the school context, it was possible to establish his or her skills and needs to indicate the appropriate assistive technology resources for the teacher's planning and thus provide proper teaching and learning for the children with disabilities. The study identified the need to establish specific procedures, an organized pedagogical plan and participation of health professionals as consultants on using assistive technology in school.

Humanização da assistência ao paciente crítico: revisão integrativa da literatura

This study aimed at analyzing the scientific production on health care humanization in intensive-care and emergency units based on publications in national journals. Therefore, this is an integrative review of the national literature. The online database Literatura Latino-Americana do Caribe em Ciências da Saúde - Literature in the Health Sciences in Latin America and the Caribbean (LILACS) based on the Health Virtual Library (BVS) platform was used to select articles. The final sample in this review consisted of 21 articles. The presentation of results and data discussion was descriptively performed and divided into three themes: communication with relatives and the team, caregiver humanization and, finally, the difficulties faced to implement humanization. As regards communication, it is seen by the authors as a fundamental strategy to ensure quality in intensive care, and it is placed as a central axis in the humanization policy. Concerning caregiver humanization, the physical and mental overload resulting from the work process in these units are factors that interfere with personal relations between team members as well as with that between team members and patients. Among the difficulties faced for implementing humanized care for critical patients are the units’s physical and organizational structures, technology and health care professionals’ education, which is centered on the biomedical model. It was concluded that communication is considered to be fundamental for humanization of the care provided to critical patients, since it allows for the development of a network of meanings between patients, the team, families and the establishment. In order to implement care with humanized actions in urgency and emergency sectors, particularly in ICUs, it is necessary to change organizational culture and value health care professionals

Pesquisa de genes de resistência do M. tuberculosis a isoniazida e rifampicina por sequenciamento e pela tecnologia de DNA-STRIP

Tuberculose (TB), causada por Mycobacterium tuberculosis, é uma das doenças infecciosas que mais causam mortes. Estima-se que mais de dois bilhões de pessoas estejam infectadas no mundo. O tratamento da TB consite em associação de fármacos, isoniazida, rifampicina, pirazinamida e etambutol, nos primeiros 2 meses e 4 meses de isoniazida e de rifampicina. Internacionalmente, são consideradas cepas multi resistentes (MDR), as que apresentam resistência simultânea a isoniazida e a rifampicina. A rápida detecção de resistência é essencial para o controle e tratamento da TB, reduzindo, assim, o custo do tratamento e a transmissão da doença. Neste projeto, os isolados já identificados fenotipicamente como resistentes a isoniazida e/ou rifampicina, foram submetidos ao sequenciamento de Sanger para pesquisa de 3 genes relacionados a resistência a isoniazida (katG, inhA e ahpC) e 1 gene de resistência a rifampicina (rpoB). Foi realizada uma comparação destes genes mutados para a resistência utilizando o novo teste desenvolvido pela Biomérieux, denominado GenoType® MTBDRplus, que se baseia na tecnologia DNA-STRIP. Através deste novo teste, foi observada mutação em 22 isolados clínicos de M. tuberculosis para genes de resistência a isoniazida e/ou rifampicina, sendo 4 provenientes do MS e 18 de SP. Já pelo sequenciamento genético foi observada mutação em 24 isolados para genes de resistência a isoniazida e/ou rifampicina, sendo 6 provenientes do MS e 18 de SP. Portanto, através do sequenciamento de Sanger, foi possível detectar um número maior de isolados mutados e mais mutações quando comparado ao teste GenoType® MTBDRplus. Isso acontece porque na técnica de sequenciamento, um fragmento do gene como um todo é analisado e no caso do teste GenoType® MTBDRplus, é verificada apenas a ausência ou presença das mutações mais frequentes descritas na literatura, além de não ser analisado o gene ahpC. A grande ...
