RESUMO
The dose of progressive active mobilization is still uncertain. The purpose of this study is to identify if the addition of a protocol of progressive active mobilization with dose and training load control to usual care is effective in reducing the length of stay in intensive care unit (ICU) and the improvement of the functioning, incidence of ICU-acquired weakness (ICUAW), mechanical ventilation duration and mortality rate in patients hospitalized in ICU. It is Double-blind randomised clinical trial. The setting for this trial will be medical and surgical ICU of a university hospital. The study participants will be 118 patients aged> 18 years admitted to ICU for less than 72 hours. Participants will be randomized to either an experimental or control group. The experimental group will undertake addition of a protocol of progressive active mobilization with dose and training load control to usual care, while the control group will undertake only usual care. The primary outcome will be length of ICU stay. The secondary outcomes will be Cross-sectional area and muscle thickness of the rectus femoris and biceps brachii, Change in muscle strength from the baseline, Functional Status, incidence of ICUAW, Days with mechanical ventilation and Mortality. All statistical analyses will be conducted following intention-to-treat principles. It has a detailed description of the dose of exercise, was designed with the strictest methodological criteria. These characteristics allow to investigate with greater certainty the results progressive active mobilization in critical patients, allowing replication and future combinations in meta-analyzes.

RESUMO Ainda há poucos marcadores de desempenho funcional com capacidade de predizer óbito em unidades de terapia intensiva (UTI). O objetivo do presente estudo foi identificar a associação entre a não adoção de postura antigravitacional e óbito em pacientes internados em uma UTI adulto. Trata-se de um estudo retrospectivo e analítico, realizado através da análise de prontuários. A associação entre a não adoção de postura antigravitacional e óbito foi testada por regressão logística múltipla ajustada por sexo, idade, gravidade da doença (mensurada pelo Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Classification System II [Apache II]), tempo de ventilação mecânica invasiva (VMI) e tempo de sedação. A odds ratio (OR) foi estimada com intervalo de confiança de 95%. Foram incluídos no estudo 92 pacientes sequenciais. Houve forte associação entre a não adoção de postura antigravitacional em UTI e óbito (ORajustada=37,7; IC=4,76-293; p=0,001). Conclui-se que pacientes que não adotaram postura antigravitacional durante o internamento em UTI apresentaram chances muito mais elevadas de mortalidade. Essa simples estratégia de classificação da capacidade funcional de pacientes críticos pode ser utilizada rotineiramente por equipes de saúde como uma variável simples e dicotômica de prognóstico de mortalidade em UTI.
RESUMEN Aún existen pocos marcadores de desempeño funcional con capacidad de predecir la muerte en Unidades de Cuidados Intensivos (UCI). El presente estudio tuvo como objetivo identificar la asociación entre la no adopción de postura antigravitacional y el óbito en pacientes hospitalizados en una UCI adulto. Se trata de un estudio retrospectivo y analítico, realizado mediante análisis de historia clínica. La asociación entre la no adopción de postura antigravitacional y el fallecimiento fue probada por regresión logística múltiple ajustada por sexo, edad, gravedad de la enfermedad (medida por la Acute Physiology And Chronic Health Classification System II [Apache II]), tiempo de ventilación mecánica invasiva (VMI) y tiempo de sedación. Se estimó la odds ratio (OR) con intervalo de confianza (IC=95%). Se incluyeron en el estudio 92 pacientes secuenciales. Se observó una fuerte asociación entre la no adopción de postura antigravitacional en UCI y el óbito (ORajustada=37,7; IC=4,76-293; p=0,001). De esta forma, se puede concluir que pacientes que no adoptaron postura antigravitacional durante la hospitalización en UCI tuvieron posibilidades mucho más elevadas de mortalidad. Esta simple estrategia de clasificación de la capacidad funcional de pacientes críticos puede ser utilizada de manera rutinaria por el equipo de salud como una variable simple y dicotómica de pronóstico de mortalidad en UCI.
ABSTRACT Until now, few functional performance markers are able to predict death in Intensive Care Units (ICUs). This study aimed to identify the association between non-adoption of antigravity posture and death in patients admitted to an adult ICU. It is a retrospective and analytical study, performed through the analysis of medical records. Association between non-adoption of antigravity posture and death was tested by multiple logistic regression adjusted for gender, age, disease severity (measured by Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Classification System II [Apache II]), time of invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV), and period of sedation. The odds ratio (OR) with confidence interval (CI=95%) was estimated. A total of 92 sequential patients were included in the study. A strong association between the non-adoption of antigravity posture in the ICU and death (ORadjusted=37.7, CI=4.76-293, p=0.001) was observed. Thus, one can conclude that patients who did not adopt an antigravity posture during ICU admission had a much higher odds of mortality. This simple strategy to classify functional capacity of critical patients can be routinely used by the team as a simple and dichotomous variable for ICU mortality prognosis.

OBJECTIVES: The goal was to identify predictors of poor-quality spirometry in community-dwelling older adults and their respective cutoffs. METHODS: This was a cross-sectional population-based study involving 245 elderly subjects (age≥60 years). The spirometric data were categorized as good or poor quality, and cognitive status was assessed using an adapted version (scaled to have a maximum of 19 points) of the Mini-Mental State Examination. Multivariate analysis was used to assess the association between poor-quality spirometry and sociodemographic, behavioral and health characteristics. The best cutoff points for predicting poor-quality spirometry were evaluated by the receiver operating characteristic curve. RESULTS: In this population, 61 (24.9%) subjects with poor-quality spirometry were identified. After multiple logistic regression analysis, only age and Mini-Mental State Examination score were still associated with poor-quality spirometry (p≤0.05). The cutoff for the Mini-Mental State Examination score was 15 points, with an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of 0.628 (p=0.0017), sensitivity of 74.5% and specificity of 49.5%; for age, the cutoff was 78 years, with an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of 0.718 (p=0.0001), sensitivity of 57.4% and specificity of 79.9%. CONCLUSION: Age and Mini-Mental State Examination score together are good predictors of poor-quality spirometry and can contribute to the screening of community-dwelling older adults unable to meet the minimum quality criteria for a spirometric test.

Objetivo: avaliar a associação entre a relação volume expiratório forçado no primeiro segundo e capacidade vital forçada (VEF1/CVF) com a Síndrome da Fragilidade (SF) em idosos. Método: estudo analítico, transversal, de base populacional, com abordagem quantitativa. Para as análises, foi realizada regressão logística multivariada. Resultados: foram estudados 162 idosos, com prevalência da SF de 13,6% e média de idade de 70,7 anos (±6,9). Não houve associação VEF1/CVF e SF (OR = 0,98; IC95%: 0,94-1,02; p = 0,352) e nem percentual do valor predito da VEF1/CVF e SF (OR = 0,98; IC95%: 0,95-1,01; p = 0,342), independentemente do grupo etário e auto percepção de saúde. Conclusão: a relação VEF1/CVF não é capaz de predizer a Síndrome da Fragilidade em idosos residentes em comunidade.

O objetivo deste estudo foi desenvolver um software para interpretação de dados gasométricos aplicável em UTIs. Trata-se de estudo de caráter experimental, sendo selecionada uma base teórica em Java com a IDE NetBeans 6.8 por meio de parceria com profissionais capacitados em Sistemas de Informação. O desenvolvimento do programa foi baseado na criação de um algoritmo, uma sequência de instruções bem definidas e não ambíguas a serem executadas mecanicamente com a finalidade de fornecer um diagnóstico desejado. Foi criado um software aplicável em UTIs denominado InterGas, que é um programa de fácil instalação, possui interface de fácil compreensão e utilização, além de processar os dados rapidamente e de forma precisa, oferecendo como resultado final o diagnóstico para o distúrbio do equilíbrio ácido-básico. O desconhecimento de outra ferramenta que reúna todos os componentes do InterGas o torna um software pioneiro que facilita a tomada de decisão à medida que caracteriza a ocorrência de distúrbios mistos utilizando fórmulas de compensação. Com isso, futuros estudos deverão ser feitos com o objetivo de avaliar aspectos relacionados à implementação e eficácia do software desenvolvido.
The objective of this study was to develop a software for data interpretation of gasometric applicable in Intensive Care Units that can provide a diagnosis for disorders of acid-base balance. This is an experimental study being selected on a theoretical basis with the Java IDE NetBeans 6.8 through a partnership with professionals trained in Information Systems. The program development was based on creating an algorithm, a sequence of well-defined and unambiguous to be performed mechanically in order to provide a desired diagnosis. We created a software applicable in intensive care units called InterGas, which is a program easy to install, has an interface easy to understand and use, and to process the data quickly and accurately providing as the final diagnosis for the disorder the acid-base balance. The lack of another tool that brings together all the components of InterGas makes it a pioneering software that facilitates decision-making, as it characterizes the occurrence of mixed disturbances using compensation formulas.
