Estratégia educativa sobre prevenção de acidentes infantis para o ensino fundamental

Os acidentes infantis causam alta morbimortalidade. Embora preveníveis pela educação, são escassos os subsídios para atuar com o tema. O objetivo deste trabalho foi elaborar estratégia educativa sobre prevenção de acidentes infantis para o ensino fundamental. Participaram membros de um Grupo de Pesquisa, escolares de duas salas de 3ª série do ensino fundamental e as professoras. Utilizou-se literatura da área, materiais recicláveis e impressos. Realizaram-se reuniões para definição, elaboração e ensaio da estratégia, no Grupo de Pesquisa, e estudo piloto nas salas de aula. A estratégia resultante foi um Teatro de Fantoches abordando a prevenção de queimaduras infantis, com Folheto Avaliativo do Aluno para antes e após a ação e Questionário Avaliativo do Professor após a ação. Concluiu-se que a estratégia elaborada foi de fácil aplicação e boa aceitação, favorecendo a posterior aplicação e avaliação por professores.

Acidentes na infância atendidos no pronto socorro de pediatria do Hospital das Clínicas de Botucatu que motivaram internação

Accidents represent a major public health problem as they are frequent, preventable, and account for high morbidity and mortality rates. Children are the most vulnerable to accidents due to their inherent characteristics, and as a result of their physical, sensorial, psychomotor and cognitive limitations, which will only develop with time. Watchfulness and careful attention are of paramount importance, especially as children develop locomotor skills that are accompanied by curiosity about their surroundings. Child accidents, particularly those that could have been avoided, are the accidents most commonly seen in emergency and urgency departments. Urgency and emergency departments are the greatest allies in the attention to pediatric accidents as they offer adequate, immediate and specific high complexity care to patients at risk, viewing their vital stabilization. Investigating the causes and consequences of this insult is essential to establish a diagnosis and to contribute for the adoption of measures of prevention, control, and assistance.

Análise da toxicidade dos antidepressivos tricíclicos ( ADTS) e plano de intervenção

O município de Jaboticatubas tem uma extensão territorial de 1.114km2. Está situado na Região Metropolitana de Belo Horizonte e localiza-se na região Sudeste, no Estado de Minas Gerais, na Zona Metalúrgica, microrregião Calcários de Sete Lagoas. Durante as reuniões de equipe de saúde da família no município de Jaboticatubas, foi discutida a grande utilização dos medicamentos antidepressivos, principalmente o da classe de antidepressivos tricíclicos (ADTS), e constatou-se o uso indiscriminado e o acondicionamento de forma incorreta deste medicamento levando a vários casos de intoxicação. Os antidepressivos tricíclicos são uma classe de fármacos usados no tratamento sintomático da depressão e outras síndromes depressivas. Eles são reconhecidos como sendo os mais eficazes em episódios depressivos graves, embora aclamados pela eficácia são fármacos reconhecidos, também, pelo baixo índice terapêutico em relação às demais classes de antidepressivos. O presente estudo objetivou elaborar um plano de intervenção que possibilite conscientizar a população sobre os riscos da utilização inadequada dos antidepressivos tricíclicos e sobre a importância do acondicionamento apropriado. Metodologicamente, apoiou-se em uma revisão integrativa utilizando-se de estudos sobre a toxicidade dos antidepressivos tricíclicos analisando seus principais efeitos adversos e efeitos tóxicos para a criação, portanto, do plano de intervenção. Para tanto, foram realizadas pesquisas em bases de dados definidos e, a partir daí, foram coletados artigos que atendiam aos critérios de inclusão da metodologia proposta, assim como às variáveis de interesse determinadas. A pesquisa resultou em uma amostragem composta por 16 artigos selecionados de uma população de 111 trabalhos científicos. A análise dos resultados demonstrou que a utilização inadequada da droga pode desencadear autointoxicação levando às alterações cardíacas e no sistema nervoso central. As principais circunstâncias envolvidas nas intoxicações foram suicídios, automedicação e uso da droga associada com álcool. A partir da revisão realizada pode-se perceber que se trata de uma classe de fármacos com efeitos adversos e tóxicos que podem comprometer a qualidade de vida. Algumas medidas são sugeridas para diminuir essas ocorrências de intoxicação, tais como o melhor ajuste posológico dos pacientes em terapia, a associação de terapias cognitivo-comportamentais para diminuir a incidência de tentativas de suicídio, reduzir o índice de acidentes infantis devido a descuidos e a falta de conhecimentos sobre medicamentos e a realização de campanhas educativas sobre a toxicidade de medicamentos.

Percepção de cuidadores de crianças acerca da prevenção de acidentes domésticos infantis: análise à luz do modelo de crenças em saúde

This study aimed to analyze the perception of home caregivers of children from zero to five years-old on child domestic accidents and their influence in preventing these events. Exploratory and descriptive study with a qualitative approach, conducted with 20 caregivers attended at the Family Health Unit of Cidade Nova in Natal/Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil. The participants should have age less than 18 years-old, being a caregiver of at least a five year-old child and living in the area ascribed of Family Health Unit in the neighborhood Cidade Nova. Data collection occurred between March and April 2013 and a semistructured interview script was used. This stage was preceded by the acquiescence of the director of health institution where the research was developed, the Health Department of the Municipality of Natal as well as the Ethics Committee in Research of Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte under Opinion nº 219 872 and CAAE nº 12236013.7.0000.5537. It is noted that respondents were asked to formal authorization by the Term of Consent. The data were treated according to the technique of the Collective Subject Discourse and analyzed based on three dimensions of the Health Belief Model, relating to perceptions of susceptibility to infant domestic accidents, self-efficacy to prevent infant and indicia domestic accidents for action of preventing domestic accidents in childhood. The results revealed that all the respondents were women, who, in their majority, they are mothers of the children they care, and predominantly they are aged between 18 and 30 years-old, full high school education and unemployed. Concerning the perception of susceptibility, it was unveiled understanding of deponents on various types of accidents, which are considered preventable. For this purpose, it was highlighted that the constant surveillance of the children is essential, keeping in view their high degree of curiosity and immaturity. On the perceived selfefficacy, the participants reported adopting preventive measures; however, they reported experiencing falls, burns, electric shocks and dog bites. In regard to the meaning attributed to experienced accidents they highlighted their feelings of guilt and despair, particularly about the cases understood as serious. Regarding the last dimension analyzed, related to indications for action, family, friends and television were the main source of information about household accidents and their prevention methods; however, health professionals were rarely cited as issuers of such knowledge. It is concluded that there is a widespread perception of women about prevention of domestic accidents and the weakness in the view of health professionals, including nurses, as disseminators of this information. This suggests the need to strengthen the dialogue on the issue and encouraging the participation of caregivers actively in the prevention of child domestic accidents
