[Characteristics of victims and fatal accidents at the workplace]. / Caracterização das vítimas e dos acidentes de trabalho fatais.

This is a quantitative, descriptive, retrospective documental study on fatal accidents occurred during the period from o2006 to 2010, in which workers were treated at Hospital do Trabalhador, located in Curitiba/Parand. We selected 25 notifications for the outcome death. This study aimed to characterize victims and fatal occupational accidents. Fatal occupational accidents hit workers with a mean age of 35 years (SD = 13.0694), of the male sex, n = 23 (92%). Typical occupational accidents accounted for 52% (n = 13) of cases. One of the preventive measures proposed to reduce the number of fatal occupational accidents is the performance of educational and preventive work at the workplace by nurses. Moreover, it is necessary to rethink transit violence as a relevant factor for the cause of death of workers as well.

Lung cancer and occupational exposure: hospital-based case-control study.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the relationship between occupation and lung cancer in patients at a national referral hospital for cancer care in southern Brazil. METHOD: Hospital-based case-control study conducted between February and October 2019. Occupational histories were coded according to international classifications and translated into occupations associated with lung cancer (List A and B). The odds ratios were adjusted for smoking, with a 95% confidence interval, calculated by conditional logistic regression. RESULTS: 99 cases and 227 controls were included. Among men, the occupation of painters (list A) was associated with lung cancer (OR = 14.3; 95% CI: 1.8-116.5), there were no occupations in list B associated with lung cancer. In women, no increased risks were found. CONCLUSIONS: It has been shown that exposure to occupational carcinogens among repair and construction painters increases the risk of lung cancer.

Occupational characterization of workers exposed to asbestos: an integrative review.

Asbestos is a mineral fiber abundant in nature and classified as a carcinogen since 1987. The present study aimed to identify, in the scientific literature, what are the occupation and activities developed by sick workers and which categories would be affected with asbestos-related diseases. Through a literature review performed in the following databases: PubMed, CINAHL (Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature), Web of Science, and Regional Portal of the Virtual Health Library, 23 studies published from 2015 to 2020 were selected and evaluated. The occupations that showed greater illness due to exposure to asbestos were general asbestos workers (40%), miners (22%), and textile workers (9%), followed by naval, automotive, carpentry, doll-making, construction, and upholstery workers, as well as workers involved in the rescue, recovery, cleaning, and restoration of the World Trade Center (4%). Of the disease associated with exposure to asbestos, the most described is malignant mesothelioma (43%). Evidence found corroborate pre-existing information in the literature showing that exposure to asbestos may be harmful to health. Moreover, the importance of using personal protective equipment was emphasized, in order to prevent the development of asbestos-related diseases.

Psychosocial risks and the health of health workers: reflections on Brazilian labor reform.

OBJECTIVE: to reflect on the psychosocial risks and their impacts on the health of health workers in light of the Brazilian economic context and Labor Reform. METHOD: reflective study on the Brazilian Labor Reform and its impacts on health of health workers. RESULTS: although the changes observed in the labor sphere have contributed to improvements in health and safety policies for, these changes have also contributed to the emergence of new risks arising from work activities, including psychosocial risks, which affect all occupational categories. Final considerations: we understand that the Brazilian Labor Reform carried out in 2017 leads to the weakening of labor relations, increases workers' exposure to risks in the workplace, increases the risk of illness, and opposes the global movement of international organizations aimed at the prevention of aggravation in workers' health and also at preserving their health.

Lung cancer related to occupational exposure: an integrative review.

OBJECTIVE: To identify in the literature the carcinogenic agents found in the work environment, the occupations and the risk for lung cancer. METHOD: A descriptive and analytical study of the Integrative Literature Review type was carried out in national and international databases from the last ten years in the period from 2009 to 2018, concerning 32 studies referring to association between carcinogenic substances to which the worker is exposed and lung cancer. RESULTS: Nine (28.1%) publications originated in China and only one in Brazil. The most exposed workers were from the secondary sector, 50% being from industry and 6.2% from construction, mostly male. Asbestos and silica stood out among the carcinogenic substances most associated with lung cancer risk, accounting for 37.5% and 28.1%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: The association between occupational exposure and the risk for lung cancer was characterized in this research by the substantial scientific evidence from the described studies that confirm this association.

Abstract Objective To analyze the relationship between fatigue, sleep quality, variables of health and work in intensive care nursing workers during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods Cross-sectional, correlational study conducted from July 2020 to February 2021 with a random and probabilistic sample of nurses and nursing technicians from university hospitals in Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. A sociodemographic/occupational questionnaire, the Fatigue Assessment Scale and the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index were used in data collection. The chi-square test, Mann-Whitney U test and the Spearman correlation coefficient were used in the analyzes, adopting a significance level of 5%. Binary logistic regression analysis was performed. Results Participation of 114 workers. There was prevalence of low fatigue and poor sleep quality. High fatigue was associated with the variables going to work sick and perceiving noise/vibrations as a cause of discomfort. Nursing technicians were associated with poor sleep quality and concern about exposure to chemical substances. Fatigue and sleep quality were moderately and directly correlated. Adjusted analyzes showed that nurses and nursing technicians with high fatigue were four times more likely to have poor sleep quality (OR = 4.86; CI = 1.50-15.75). Conclusion Fatigue and sleep quality were directly correlated and are associated with individual and work factors. High fatigue increased the chances of having worse sleep quality assessment. Institutional and organizational strategies should be reviewed in order to prioritize the health protection of these nursing workers.

Política de saúde prisional brasileira: uma revisão integrativa / Brazilian prison health policy: an integrative review / Política brasileña de salud penitenciaria: una revisión integrativa

Objetivo: identificar as temáticas relacionadas à saúde das pessoas privadas de liberdade no Brasil, abordadas em periódicos científicos, e correlacioná-las com as diretrizes da Política Nacional de Atenção à Saúde das Pessoas Privadas de Liberdade no Sistema Prisional (PNAISP), em vigência. Metodologia: tratou-se de uma revisão integrativa de literatura, realizada nas bases de dados da Biblioteca Virtual de Saúde, National Library of Medicine e Scopus e resultando em 37 artigos selecionados. Resultados e discussão: as temáticas relacionadas à saúde das pessoas privadas de liberdade no Brasil, discutidas nos artigos, estão alicerçadas na perspectiva curativista, com ênfase nas doenças infectocontagiosas, havendo poucos estudos sobre ações promotoras de saúde. A maior parte dos estudos se ocupou da diretriz Controle e/ou redução de agravos mais frequentes, em detrimento das demais diretrizes da PNAISP. Conclusão: a superação da perspectiva curativista nos cuidados em saúde de pessoas presas pressupõe o fomento de ações promotoras de saúde, que fortaleçam a implementação das diretrizes da política de saúde prisional brasileira. Este estudo contribui com a reflexão sobre a saúde nas prisões ao reconhecer das diretrizes estruturantes da PNAISP.

Objective: to identify topics related to the health of people deprived of liberty in Brazil that are covered in scientific journals and compare them with the guidelines of the current National Health Care Policy for Liberty Deprived People in the Prison System (PNAISP, in Portuguese). Methods: this was an integrative literature search conducted in the Virtual Health Library, National Library of Medicine, and Scopus databases, resulting in 37 selected articles. Results and discussion: the topics addressed in the articles related to the health of people deprived of their liberty in Brazil were based on a curative perspective with a focus on infectious diseases, with few studies on health promotion interventions. Most studies addressed guideline control and/or reduction of the most common diseases, to the detriment of the other guidelines of the PNAISP. Conclusion: overcoming the curative perspective in prisoner health care requires the promotion of health-promoting interventions that strengthen the implementation of the Brazilian Prison Health Policy guidelines. This study contributes to the reflection on prison health by recognizing the structuring guidelines of the PNAISP.

ABSTRACT Objective: to reflect on the psychosocial risks and their impacts on the health of health workers in light of the Brazilian economic context and Labor Reform. Method: reflective study on the Brazilian Labor Reform and its impacts on health of health workers. Results: although the changes observed in the labor sphere have contributed to improvements in health and safety policies for, these changes have also contributed to the emergence of new risks arising from work activities, including psychosocial risks, which affect all occupational categories. Final considerations: we understand that the Brazilian Labor Reform carried out in 2017 leads to the weakening of labor relations, increases workers' exposure to risks in the workplace, increases the risk of illness, and opposes the global movement of international organizations aimed at the prevention of aggravation in workers' health and also at preserving their health.

RESUMEN Objetivo: reflexionar sobre los riesgos psicosociales y sus impactos en la salud de los trabajadores de la salud a la luz del contexto económico y la Reforma Laboral Brasileña. Método: estudio reflexivo sobre los impactos de la Reforma Laboral Brasileña en la salud del trabajador de la salud. Resultados: los cambios en el mundo del trabajo contribuyeron a la aparición de nuevos riesgos derivados de las actividades laborales, destacando los riesgos psicosociales asociados con el trabajo, incluyendo los trabajadores de la salud. Consideraciones finales: se puede ver que la Reforma Laboral Brasileña que tuvo lugar en 2017 induce el debilitamiento de las relaciones laborales, aumenta la exposición de los trabajadores a los riesgos en el lugar de trabajo, aumenta el riesgo de enfermedad en el trabajo, en oposición al movimiento mundial para la prevención de lesiones y la protección de la salud de los trabajadores.

RESUMO Objetivo: refletir sobre os riscos psicossociais e seus impactos na saúde dos trabalhadores de saúde frente ao contexto econômico e à Reforma Trabalhista Brasileira. Método: estudo reflexivo acerca da Reforma Trabalhista Brasileira e seus impactos na saúde dos trabalhadores de saúde. Resultados: embora tenham colaborado para avanços nas políticas de saúde e segurança dos trabalhadores, as mudanças ocorridas no mundo do trabalho - muitas delas decorrentes do modelo econômico globalizado - contribuíram para o surgimento de novos riscos decorrentes das atividades laborais, entre eles os riscos psicossociais, que atingem todas as categorias profissionais. Considerações finais: compreendemos que a Reforma Trabalhista Brasileira conduzida em 2017 induz à fragilização das relações de trabalho, potencializa a exposição dos trabalhadores aos riscos existentes no ambiente laboral, aumenta o risco de adoecimento, contrapondo-se ao movimento global de organizações internacionais voltadas à prevenção de agravos na saúde dos trabalhadores e também à proteção de sua saúde.
