Infecção do trato urinário relacionada com a utilização do catéter vesical de demora: resultados da bacteriúria e da microbiota estudadas

OBJETIVO: Avaliar o momento do início da bacteriúria e o germe mais freqüentemente relacionado à infecção urinária nos pacientes submetidos à sondagem vesical de demora. MÉTODO: No período de setembro de 2003 a outubro de 2004, foram avaliados os pacientes com 13 anos ou mais, submetidos à operações eletivas com cateterismo vesical de demora. Na inserção do cateter foi colhida a primeira amostra de urina, denominada Amostra 1, e outras seqüencialmente a cada 12 horas. Estas foram analisadas quanto a bacteriúria, leucocitúria, e cultura. A infecção do trato urinário foi definida como a presença de 100.000 unidades formadoras de colônias ou mais, após o isolamento da mesma bactéria ou fungo em culturas de urina de amostras distintas, desde a inserção até a remoção do cateter urinário; a leucocitúria como contagem de leucócitos igual ou superior a 10.000 leucócitos/mm³; e bacteriúria como presença de bactéria de uma única espécie na amostra analisada. RESULTADOS: A amostra foi composta de 63 pacientes, 46 sexo masculino (73%) e 17 sexo feminino (27%). Apenas três deles apresentaram leucocitúria na primeira coleta. Nas Amostras 1 houve variação de 1.000 a 20.000 leucócitos/mm³, todas com cultura negativa. O número de amostras variou de 1 a 8 (84h após a realização do cateterismo vesical). As leucocitúrias nas amostras finais variaram de 1.000 a 204.000 leucócitos/mm³, todas com urocultura e bacteriúria negativa. 62 pacientes (98,4%) utilizaram antibioticoterapia de curta duração para o sítio cirúrgico. CONCLUSÃO: Até 84h - 3,5 dias - não houve Infecção em nenhuma das amostras coletadas e cultivadas. A antibioticoterapia de curta duração pode ter contribuído para o resultado observado.

Infecção do trato urinário associada à sondagem vesical numa unidade de terapia intensiva

A descriptive, quantitative approach and non-participant observation study, which was aimed at analyzing the association between knowledge and practice of inclusion and maintenance of urinary catheter by nursing professionals in the occurrence of urinary tract infection, performed in the ICU of Onofre Lopes University Hospital in Natal / RN. The original sample was composed of 42 nursing staff professional, five (5) nurses and 37 nursing technicians, 27 of them were outsourced (FUNPEC and IEL fellows) and 10 servers UFRN. Data collection was performed using two instruments, the first observation procedures used in the insertion and manipulation of indwelling urinary catheter (IUC) and the second with a questionnaire that addressed the characterization data of respondents, knowledge and conduct the insertion and manipulation of the IUC. The results were tabulated in Microsoft Excel and analyzed using SPSS software, version 15.0. We found the prevalence of institutional staff members on outsourcing - IEL and FUNPEC - (64.3%) were female (69.0%), aged 21 to 35 years (59.5%) and with mid-level education (88.1%). As to knowledge, we found that the nurses had levels of good to excellent and the nursing technicians, to regulate the poor. The nurses made a mistake when choosing IUC (40.0%) and washing hands (30.0%) and technicians on hand washing (74.4%) and the contents of the tray (34.7%). In relation to the conduct of insertion of IUC, the nurses made a mistake when choosing SVD (66.7%) and washing hands (57.1%). Regarding the handling of IUC/drainage system, the technicians were wrong more about washing their hands (56.0%). Analyzing the misconduct to the categorization of knowledge, we saw that the nursing staff who had missed more had inadequate knowledge (ρ = 0.001). At the end we found the risk of a patient to acquire UTI is higher in two and a half times when there is a large number of mismatches, patient spends more time using the IUC and hospitalized in the ICU. As regards the study hypotheses, we accept the alternative hypothesis and reject the null hypothesis proposed at the start of this research, where the number of gaps in knowledge and behavior increases the incidence of urinary tract infection.

Validação de instrumentos para avaliação do conhecimento e da habilidade acerca da sondagem vesical de demora

That study had the aim to validate an instrument to evaluate the knowledge about the Urinary Catheterization (UC) in males. Cross-sectional, descriptive, quantitative and methodological study, accomplished in Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte (UFRN), Universidade do Estado do Rio Grande do Norte (UERN) and a private university from Rio Grande do Norte. Sample of 27 judges selected from the inclusion criteria: registered nurses, discipline of semiology and/or semiotics teachers, with at least 1 year of experience in the disciplines, to work at UFRN, UERN or in private university and agree to participate voluntarily with the signing of the Consent Form. Study developed in three stages: a) elaboration of twos instruments based on the scientific literature, resulting in a structured observation script type checklist consisting of 36 items and a knowledge questionnaire with 12 questions; b) submission of instruments to judges from June to September 2012, which should evaluate each item in "adequate," "adequate with changes" and "inappropriate", and make an overall evaluation of each instrument based on 10 requirements; c) and validation with a verification of the agreement level among the judges, through the application of Kappa Index (K) and Content Validity Index (CVI). It was used the consensus level higher than 0.60 (good) for Kappa Index and higher than 0.70 for CVI. The research project had favorable opinion from the Ethics in Research/HUOL (CAAE n. 0002.0.294.000-10). After being coded and tabulated, the data were analyzed using descriptive statistics. Of the 27 judges who evaluated the instrument, 77.8% are female, with a mean age of 36.6 (± 9.0) years, 63.0% worked in UFRN, 74.1% had master degree and 63.0% worked exclusively on teaching. The experience time mean in teaching was 7.9 (± 8.0) years and in the disciplines of semiology and/or semiotics in nursing was 5.5 (± 6.7) years. In judgment of the checklist and knowledge questionnaire, no step/question was considered inappropriate, since all achieved level of agreement within the established values. All the checklist steps obtained good to excellent K (between 0.60 and 1.00). Of the 36 items, 25 had excellent K (0.75 ≤ K <1.00) and excellent total K (K = 0.83). Regarding the IVC, all steps reached levels above 0.70 (between 0.74 and 1.00) and CVI total was 0.90. All questionnaire questions evaluated separately (K from 0.60 to 0.93 and CVI from 0.74 to 0.96) and generally (K from 0.79 to 1.00 and CVI from 0.89 to 1.00) had evaluation levels of content validity within the established values. The instruments were reformulated based on the agreement levels between judges and international guidelines, dissertations and scientific articles. Both instruments proved to be valid regarding to their content, allowing a clear and objective evaluation of knowledge and skills about UC, both nursing students as well as other students and health professionals, since the use of valid measures seeking the reduction of the risk of the results distorted

Técnica de colocación de sonda vesical en el servicio de urgencias del Hospital Enfermeros Argentinos

En el presente trabajo, la recolección de datos se hizo a través de una planilla de observación, mientras el personal de enfermería del servicio de Urgencias del Hospital Enfermeros Argentinos realizaba la técnica del cateterismo vesical. En el marco teórico se tratan las infecciones urinarias asociadas al cateterismo vesical, las infecciones intrahospitalarias, y por último la técnica de un correcto lavado de manos según la OMS. Las tablas y los gráficos demuestran cuáles son los pasos de la técnica que no se cumplen, y otorgan la base para la propuesta de cambios necesarios para mejorar la calidad de atención en este servicio de urgencias. Se presentan los aspectos más importantes en relación con el sondaje vesical, instando a los profesionales de enfermería a reflexionar sobre la significativa necesidad de conocer las indicaciones y los riesgos de este procedimiento, y sobre la responsabilidad que asumimos para que la colocación de este cateterismo a un paciente crítico, sea un acto de enfermería coherente dentro de los principios éticos que asegure la calidad del cuidado, previniendo complicaciones al paciente y su familia.

Candidúria: uma abordagem clínica e terapêutica

O achado laboratorial de candidúria traz dilemas em relação a sua interpretação visto que pode refletir uma amplitude de possibilidades clínicas, incluindo colonização, infecção urinária alta ou doença sistêmica por Candida spp. Neste artigo, abordaremos a epidemiologia, o diagnóstico e a terapêutica da candidúria em diversos cenários clínicos, incluindo pacientes transplantados renais. De forma prática e para efeito de abordagem terapêutica, a interpretação do achado de candidúria é baseada na presença de dados clínicos e epidemiológicos Quando necessária, a terapêutica antifúngica para os casos de candidúria pode ser realizada com: anfotericina B sistêmica, anfotericina B tópica (irrigação vesical) ou fluconazol. A coleta de hemoculturas deve ser indicada em pacientes com candidúria sob risco para desenvolvimento de candidíase hematogênica. A retirada da sonda vesical de demora deve ser considerada sempre que possível, pois reduz a possibilidade de persistência ou recorrência da infecção urinária por Candida spp.

Assistência de enfermagem e o risco para úlceras de pressão medido pela Escala de Braden em unidade de terapia intensiva

The problem facing the incidence of pressure ulcers (UP) in the hospital environment especially in the intensive care unit (ICU), although it is an old and frequent event in our professional practice, it is not notified in the researches as much as it should be. We observed a tendency to invest in therapeutical and in studies about the production of sophisticated new bandages. Few, however, are the investments in research on preventive measures in order to prevent or at least slow down the development of lesions. In this sense, the study aimed to analyze the correlation between nursing care and the risk of developing UP measured by the Braden scale in ICU patients. This is a descriptive study of longitudinal quantitative approach. The project obtained a favourable opinion from the Ethics Committee of HUOL (no 486/10). Data collection was carried out in the Hospital of Unimed in Natal during six months in 2011. The sample was of 32 patients hospitalized in ICU for over four days. The results were processed in SPSS 15.0 for descriptive statistics and inferential statistics. We identified that, only 9.4% of our sample developed UP, being predominantly male, elderly people aged above 60 years, Caucasian, with diagnostic hypothesis at the time of hospitalization of sepsis, were clinical patients, who presented hemodynamic instability, using orotracheal tube (TOT), enteral probe (SNE), vesical probe delay (SVD) and had values of albumin and hemoglobin levels below normal. In addition, these patients had a longer hospital stay, longer usage of TOT, SNE, SVD, increased use of sedation and drain than those who did not develop UP and were all at risk for developing these injuries second Braden scores. 66.7% of the lesions developed were located in the sacral region, limiting the degree I and all patients that developed were considered serious, 100.0% of them have evolved since the death. Small were the differences between the averages of Braden scores between patients with and without UP, 11,9+2,4 against 12,4+2,6 with p = 0.627. The clinical aspects of the patients in the study were instrumental in the development of UP, once, these findings were statistically significant through the Mann-Whitney test, and appropriateness of nursing conduct was decisive for the prevention of pressure ulcers in critical patients, since many were those classified as at risk (28) and few who have developed lesions (03)

Ocorrência de infecção urinária em pacientes de um hospital universitário

Infection in hospitals is a serious problem for the Public Health System. It is responsible for the increasing number of hospital deaths, as well as the longer time patients may have to stay in hospital, raising the costs of confinement more and more. The most common hospital infection is urinary tract infections (UTI), the use of the urinary catheter being the main risk factor. The aim of this study was to evaluate the profile of UTI among hospitalized patients in a University Hospital in Brazil, from October to December 2003. Out of 271 samples of urine checked, 51 were positive, 27 of these from patients having community-acquired UTI and 24 whose infection originated in the hospital. The community-acquired UTIs were more frequent in female patients (63%). The highest incidence of infection was caused by Escherichia coli (74%), especially in patients aged from 0 to 15 (37%). The episodes of hospital-acquired infection happened, in the main, in male patients aged above 50 (68%) who were using a lasting vesical catheter; in this group of patients the infection was frequently caused by E. coli (29.1%) and Klebsiella spp. (29.1%). E. coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae exhibited strong resistance (62.5%) to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole, as well as to ampicillin, showing that these drugs should not be used to cure UTIs in this institution.
