Color is an important variable in cosmetic dentistry, and it has traditionally been measured by a visual method, comparing teeth with standard color guides. In recent decades, electronic instruments have been developed to eliminate the subjective factor of visual measurement. This objective method has mainly been performed with colorimeters, spectrophotometers and the analysis of images obtained with digital cameras. These instruments have proven to be reliable with a high degree of precision and accuracy. Its use is recommended as an adjunctive tool to assess color in direct and indirect restorations, in aesthetic treatments like bleaching, and to facilitate communication with the dental laboratory. The spectrophotometer is the device that has reported better “in- vitro “ and “in -vivo” performance, being the “Vita Easyshade “ the one with more reliable results.

In order to better understand the natural history of chronic functional constipation, a questionnaire was applied to 163 children and infants, before beginning standardized treatment. Median age (range) at start was 3 mo(0-108 mo) but age at arrival at the Pediatric Gastroenterology Unit was 53 mo(2-146 mo). In 62.4% of the cases symptoms began before or up to 3 mo after cow's milk introduction and rarely around (-/+ 6 mo) toilet training. Possible complications appeared progressively, often at preschool or school age or as the first noticeable manifestation: recurrent abdominal pain (61.1%), fecal soiling (45.4%), fecal blood (35%), enuresis (23.3%), vomiting (19%), urinary infection (17.9%), urinary retention (8.6%). Abdominal distension was rarely detected on physical examination and was usually discrete. In conclusion, children attended in Botucatu begin their constipation at an early age, frequently associated with weaning,and important complications may ensue along years. This evolution should be avoided by prevention and early treatment of constipation.

The professional updating alternatives included were graduate courses and subscription to newspapers. Results: 29.2 % of the students use the Internet on a daily basis; only one student stated that he did not use the Internet. Of the students interviewed, 63.34 % did not know any form of distance education. As a consequence, 97.5 % had never taken part in a distance education course and 62.5 % stated that they did not know whether they would.

Contexto: É descrito caso clínico de farmacodermia grave e de alta letalidade, cujo reconhecimento imediato é fundamental. Relato decaso: Paciente do sexo masculino de três anos de idade, cuja mãe refere histórico de crises convulsivas, consultou-se com neurologistaparticular, que prescreveu ácido valproico. Uma semana depois, voltou a ter crise convulsiva, sendo então introduzida lamotrigina.Poucos dias depois, a criança começou apresentar tosse e coriza hialina. Procurou pronto-socorro de sua cidade e foi orientada a usarfluimucil. Iniciou, então, febre e exantema máculo-papular inicialmente na face, que depois se generalizou. Foi levantada a hipótesediagnóstica de farmacodermia secundária à associação de anticonvulsivante. Discussão: Síndrome de Stevens-Johnson e necróliseepidérmica tóxica são variantes do mesmo processo mucocutâneo agudo, raro e grave, causado principalmente por reação adversaa fármacos e caracterizado por erupção cutânea macular de padrão eritematoso, formação de bolhas de conteúdo sero-hemático edestacamento epidérmico. As afecções são diferenciadas pela porcentagem de superfície corpórea acometida, sendo menor que10% na síndrome de Stevens-Johnson, e maior que 30% na necrólise epidérmica tóxica. O prognóstico pode ser estimado através doescore Severity Illness Score for Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis (SCORTEN), que prevê mortalidade de até 90% para os casos mais graves.O tratamento consiste na interrupção imediata da droga, transferência do paciente para unidade de queimados ou unidade de terapiaintensiva, e medidas de suporte. Terapias adjuvantes, como imunoglobulinas intravenosas e corticosteroides, ainda não têm papelconsolidado na literatura. Conclusões: Relata-se afecção rara e extremamente grave cuja suspeição clínica é importante na conduçãodo tratamento.

The objective of this descriptive research was to investigate the perception of health care professionals who work in Pediatric Intensive Care Units in relation to the process of death and dying. The study was undertaken between June and August 2011, with data collected through structured interviews and subjected to statistical analysis. Of the 25 participants, 72% perceived death as a natural process of life, 60% felt compassion – a feeling that did not interfere in caring for the patient, 52% related that they had not received any preparation about the process of death or dying and 76% showed interest in taking a refresher course on the issue. Greater discussion is necessary about academic training, and the offer of educational activities and space for exchanging experiences, such that the workers may better understand and deal with feelings and limitations regarding death.

Objetivo: avaliar a carga de trabalho de enfermagem (CTE) em unidade de terapia intensiva pediátrica, especializada no atendimento de crianças com anomalias craniofaciais e síndromes associadas, como critério para dimensionamento de pessoal. Método: Estudo prospectivo, realizado na unidade de terapia intensiva pediátrica do Hospital de Reabilitação de Anomalias Craniofaciais da Universidade de São Paulo, nos meses de maio e junho de 2013. A amostra constou de 29 pacientes. O critério de inclusão foi à permanência maior que 24 horas na unidade. Inicialmente a carga de trabalho de enfermagem foi mensurada por meio do Nursing Activies Score (NAS) e posteriormente comparada ao dimensionamento de pessoal segundo a Resolução do Conselho Federal de Enfermagem - COFEN - 293/04, e aos fatores sócio-demográficos da amostra (idade, sexo, diagnóstico médico, procedência e média de permanência). Para a análise estatística, utilizouse o Teste – t de Student, a Análise de Variância e a Correlação de Pearson, observando-se como nível de significância 5% (p ≤ 0,05). Resultados: A média NAS foi de 90,86%. A taxa de ocupação foi de 60%. Ao se relacionar a CTE segundo o NAS as variáveis sócio demográficas, não se observaram diferenças significantes. O dimensionamento de pessoal segundo o NAS e segundo a Resolução COFEN - 293/04 foram similares (5 funcionários por turno de trabalho). Conclusão: O dimensionamento de pessoal segundo a carga de trabalho por meio do instrumento NAS foi similar ao preconizado pelo COFEN. Evidencia-se a relação entre a carga de trabalho e o dimensionamento de pessoal.

Objetivo: Avaliar, por estudo prospectivo, a incidência de complicações relacionadas ao implante e uso de cateteres de longa permanência totalmente implantáveis (CLP) em crianças com câncer, comparando o implante por punção em veia subclávia (SCL) com o implante por punção em veia jugular interna (J). Método: estudo prospectivo com randomização da escolha da punção em veia subclávia ou veia jugular interna para o implante do cateter. Foram considerados como desfechos as complicações que levaram a retirada ou revisão do cateter. Resultados: 83 implantes foram randomizados no período de janeiro de 2004 a abril de 2006 e acompanhados até março de 2008. Dos 83 implantes selecionados 6 foram excluídos, permanecendo 43 pacientes no grupo SCL e 34 no grupo J. Não houve diferença estatística entre os dois grupos em relação à: distribuição por idade, sexo, número de leucócitos no implante, número de plaquetas, tipo de internação para cirurgia (ambulatorial ou não), se houve quimioterapia prévia ao implante e quanto ao tipo de cateter. Na avaliação das complicações se observou, incidência de infecção de 20% no grupo SCL e 11% no grupo J (p: 0,44), incidência de embolia de 23% no grupo SCL e 8% no grupo J (p: 0,11), e incidência de complicações total de 51% no grupo SCL e 23% no grupo J (p 0,02). A média do tempo de permanência do cateter foi de 12,6 meses para o grupo SCL e 14,8 para o grupo J (p: 0,38). A análise por regressão logística mostrou que o peso (p: 0,001) é um fator de risco envolvido com a infecção; e o peso (p: 0,020) e a marca do cateter (p: 0,03) são fatores de risco para embolia. Conclusões: há maior incidência de complicações tardias no grupo SCL. Os pacientes com menor peso tiveram risco maior de desenvolver infecção. Pacientes com menor peso e a marca do cateter são fatores de risco para a ocorrência de embolia do cateter
