RESUMO
Abstract Introduction: Mobilization is an effective therapy to combat the deleterious effects of immobility, but not all patients are in a condition to be moved; thus, knowledge about contraindication criteria is fundamental. Objective: To evaluate the knowledge of physiotherapists working in adult ICUs on contraindications to the mobilization of critical patients. Method: This was a cross-sectional study in which a survey was applied to physiotherapists working in an adult ICU in the city of Recife. Results: Out of the 36 criteria presented, only five were considered contraindication criteria. Clinical parameters were those that obtained higher frequency for not being considered criteria for contraindication, nor were there observed differences in the relation between the time of working in the ICU. Conclusion: Most physiotherapists did not consider the criteria presented as contraindications to mobilization, so that professional training in mobilization practices and the creation of protocols are necessary.
Resumo Introdução: A mobilização é uma terapia eficaz para combater os efeitos deletérios do imobilismo, contudo, é sabido que nem todos os pacientes apresentam condições de saúde para recebê-la, sendo assim, é fundamental o conhecimento sobre os critérios de contraindicação. Objetivo: Avaliar o conhecimento dos fisioterapeutas atuantes em UTI adulto sobre as contraindicações à mobilização de pacientes críticos na cidade do Recife. Método: Este é um estudo transversal, no qual foi aplicado um inquérito aos fisioterapeutas atuantes em UTI adulto na cidade do Recife. Resultados: Dos 36 critérios expostos, apenas cinco foram considerados critérios de contraindicação. Os parâmetros clínicos foram os que obtiveram maior frequência como não sendo considerados critérios de contraindicação, também não foram observadas diferenças na relação entre grau acadêmico e o conhecimento dos critérios, assim como no tempo de atuação em UTI. Conclusão: Uma proporção significativa dos fisioterapeutas atuantes em UTI não considera os critérios expostos como contraindicações à prática da mobilização, sendo assim necessário o aperfeiçoamento profissional sobre as práticas da mobilização e a criação de protocolos.

Purpose: Evaluating the effects of interdialytic daily inspiratory muscle training (IMT) on respiratory muscle strength, chest wall regional volumes, diaphragmatic mobility and thickness, pulmonary function, functional capacity, and quality of life (QoL) in haemodialysis (HD) patients.Method: A randomised, and double-blind clinical trial composed of 24 chronic kidney disease patients undergoing HD. Patients were allocated into the IMT group (n = 12) or sham group (n = 12) and performed daily IMT twice per day with a load of 50% inspiratory muscle strength for the IMT group and 5 cmH2O for the sham group during 8 weeks. Respiratory muscle strength, diaphragm thickness and mobility, chest wall regional volumes, functional capacity, and QoL were measured.Results: At the end of the study, an increase in inspiratory and expiratory muscle strength was observed for both groups, but no significant difference was found between them. Changed volume distribution was also observed in the IMT group, with significantly increased inspiratory capacity in the pulmonary compartment compared to the sham group.Conclusions: Daily interdialytic IMT promoted a change in chest wall regional volumes, with an increase in the inspiratory capacity of the pulmonary rib cage. Both groups had increased inspiratory and expiratory muscle strength with daily respiratory exercise.Trial registration: www.ClinicalTrials.gov; study number: NCT02599987; name of trial registry: IMT in Patients with End-stage Renal Disease.Implications for rehabilitationMuscular impairment in chronic kidney disease patients results from a series of common alterations, affecting respiratory muscles.Patients with chronic kidney disease have low values of diaphragmatic thickness.The daily inspiratory muscle training (IMT) or breathing exercise over a period of 8 weeks provided increased respiratory muscle strength.The daily inspiratory muscle training presented a change in tri-compartment distribution of lung volume compared to the sham group, with increased inspiratory capacity of the pulmonary rib cage.
