Identity of care in a Psychosocial Care Center for Children and Adolescents who uses drugs

Objective To associate the territory of identity with the production of care within a PCC focusing on children and adolescents with drug abuse and their institutional identity. Method We used the “ process tracing methodology” in four research categories: focus groups, characterization of professionals, observing the everyday and interviewing two members of emblematic cases of the service. Results territory of identity of the institution, which operates the production of care is crossed by the difficulty of dealing with the complexity brought by the users and the performance of the PCC network. This paper is also permeated by different conceptions of care and small problematization of these issues in collective spaces of service. Conclusion The discussion in focus groups and other devices can be powerful resources to reframe the meaning of care and identity of collective service.

Esquizofrenia: intervenção em Instituição Pública de Saúde

Les premiers concepts de schizophrénie comprenaient des définitions non-spécifiques sur le trouble schizophrénique. Ce n est qu en 1980 que Crow a proposé la classification la plus connue pour ce trouble: la distinction en soustypes I et II, de symptomatologie positive ou négative, les symptômes du syndrome positif correspondant aux hallucinations et aux délires et ceux du syndrome négatif au repli affectif et à la pauvreté du discours. Bien que la thérapie médicamenteuse présente des avancées dans le traitement de la maladie, la psychothérapie est la plus indiquée pour remédier aux préjudices sociaux et interpersonnels que celle-ci provoque. L objectif de cette étude est de relater une intervention comportementale, dans un Centre de Soins Psychosocial, auprès d une patiente de 19 ans, en utilisant des Exercices de Réadaptation Psychosociale (SAT) en tant que la possibilité de traitement de la schizophrénie. Ce processus a contribué à une réduction du stéréotype de la maladie chez la jeune patiente, considérant qu elle a élargi son répertoire social et a rendu possible des avancées dans les sphères psychologique, sociale et professionnelle.

Inconsciente e cotidiano na prática da atenção psicossocial em saúde mental

O objetivo deste artigo é analisar as concepções sobre o inconsciente ligadas ao cotidiano da prática terapêutica de rede, como contribuição à clínica em saúde mental. A pesquisa participante foi realizada em um Centro de Atenção Psicossocial (CAPS) na cidade de São Paulo. Os resultados mostraram as concepções mais frequentes: o inconsciente como inconsciência, o inconsciente como desconhecimento e o inconsciente como método de escuta do sujeito e das relações na instituição. Demonstram uma flexibilidade teórica que pode permitir articulações complexas nas diversas intervenções no cotidiano da equipe referentes às subjetividades e saberes sobre o inconsciente, psicanalíticos ou não. Conclui-se que a elucidação desse saber prático sobre o inconsciente contribui para o aprofundamento dessa temática no campo da reforma psiquiátrica.

A intersetorialidade nas publicações acerca do Centro de Atenção Psicossocial Infantojuvenil

Current children and youth mental health policy proposes that actions assumed in this field should be added to many others, so that, in a process of permanent intersectional dialogue integral care is assured, according to the Psychosocial paradigm. This paper reflects upon the intersectional place in the last decade scientific papers published in Brazilian journals, and their Mental Health conceptions. We analyzed fourteen indexed papers which dealt with Brazilian Children and Youth Psychosocial Care Centers (CAPSi). Most of these publications focused on individual clinical watch suggesting that Mental Health is understood as a universal and ontological category dependent on the subject’s intrapsychic mechanisms. Some of these studies make reference to the intersectional matter, although it is not clearly discussed. In sum, we understood that the actions assumed by CAPSi cannot neglect others, and discussions should be seriously considered in the scientific field.

Efeito do topiramato sobre o craving em usuários de crack

The study aims to analyze the effects of topiramato on the craving of crack users. It is an open crossover clinical trial involving users from the Psychosocial Care Center for Alcohol and Drugs (CAPSad) in city of Parnamirim, RN, approved by the CEP CAAE: 38710614.1.0000.5537, respecting the norms of the resolution n. 466/2012/CNS. The study produced preliminary two scientific papers: a theoretical essay and an integrative review, as a way of seeking the state of art. The first paper was based in the theoretical framework of Hinds, Chaves and Cypress, which focuses different contexts, from the issues of individual use to the coping policies in Brazil, highlighting that the situation and the complexity of the phenome requires coping strategies for the full attention to the user, family and society. As a result of the integrative review, among the 902 retrieved records, eight of them presented therapeutic schemes with positive effects for the craving of cocaine. They used nine different drugs. It is important to spot out that there was no result for the craving of crack. The data collection was conducted from December 2014 to July 2015 and has as sample predominantly single males. The sample was composed of 30 subjects who met the inclusion criteria: adults, age from 18 years, diagnosis of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-IV) for cocaine/crack; cognitive capacity preserved; attendance to the service, participated at least three visits in the 12 months prior to data collection; and accepted to be monitored in the proposed treatment. Data was analyzed using descriptive statistics from the Statistical Package of Support for Social Sciences (SPSS) on the instruments: 1) Alcohol, Smoking, and Substance Involvement Screening Test (ASSIST), pointing out, among other results, that only 14% used crack/cocaine weekly during treatment, while 83% used daily or weekly after the washout period; 2) Barratt Impulsiveness Scale, with an average of 80.23 and 77.47 with and without drug treatment, respectively. An analysis from the Student t test show no significant differences in impulsivity with or without the drug; and 3) Cocaine-Craving Questionnaire-Brief (CCK-B), indicating that the number of users with craving intensity level is significantly higher without drug treatment (86%) than with treatment (33%). The analysis between craving and level of impulsivity showed that there is a low correlation (Pearson) between these two variables during treatment and after the washout, demonstrating that impulsivity has low influence on the outcome of drug therapy. As conclusion, it was noted that the topiramate produces positive effect on reducing the craving for crack users and their use is a relevant strategy for efficacy in the treatment of crack users.
