Abstract Introduction: Violence against the elderly is a growing phenomenon, causing damage to health, with different outcomes and consequences to the victims. The possibility of elderly women suffering it in the family context surpasses that of men, with gender being a considerable risk factor. Objective: To analyze the understanding of violence against the elderly according to elderly women. Method: Descriptive research with a qualitative approach developed with 22 elderly women from a community in the state of Paraíba, Brazil, chosen for convenience. The data collection was based on semi-structured interviews, processed by the Iramuteq software, with subsequent Content Analysis. Results: Five classes of violence against the elderly were evidenced: cycle of violence; support network for the elderly victims of violence; experience of violent situations; financial violence; and symbolism of violence in society, which denote an understanding of violence involving the different types. They are based on the factors of family experience, culture, and others, placing the health professional as a fundamental element for care and support. Gender influenced the perspective on physical and psychological violence, as well as the relevance given to health teams for the identification of occurrences and the prevention of possible damage. Conclusion: The various types of violence against the elderly have been recognized, including individual, community, and social factors in the violent cycle. In addition, they associated aging with greater susceptibility to suffering violence, regardless of the typology. It highlights the potential of the health service in assisting the elderly victim of violence, elucidating cases, and acting early to interrupt the cycles perpetrated, requiring the constant need for professional updating to deal with detected situations.

ABSTRACT

Introduction: Toxoplasmosis persists as a neglected disease and poses a challenge to public health, especially due to the risk of vertical transmission, which can lead to countless biological complications for the newborn and to psychological and emotional repercussions for the mother. Objective: To understand the perceptions and feelings of pregnant women affected by toxoplasmosis undergoing outpatient follow-up. Materials and Methods: A qualitative and exploratory study developed with 12 women with gestational toxoplasmosis undergoing specialized outpatient follow-up in a municipality from the state of Paraná, Brazil. The data were collected through semi-structured individual interviews and subjected to content analysis, supported by descending hierarchical classification. Results: The pregnant women experienced situations ranging from diagnosis and treatment to preventing the disease in the child and family. These experiences generated fear, distress and uncertainty about the disease, which were not adequately addressed during prenatal assistance in primary care. However, the pregnant women emphasized the importance of the multiprofessional team at the secondary level in monitoring and health education. Discussion: Although the pregnant women felt confident about the treatment and its implications for the child's health, discovering the diagnosis impacted their everyday lives and those of their families, especially due to lack of reliable information about toxoplasmosis and to the absence of emotional support at the primary level. Conclusions: There was a temporary scenario of disinformation among these women, who were not properly guided and supported. However, the guidelines offered in secondary health care were essential for improving knowledge and practices in health.

ABSTRACT

Resumo A esfera das perícias comumente reduz a questão do estabelecimento do nexo de causalidade entre trabalho e saúde/doença apenas ao binômio trabalho/vida pessoal. Partindo dos pressupostos dos campos Saúde do Trabalhador (ST) e Saúde Mental Relacionada ao Trabalho (SMRT), este ensaio visa problematizar o resultado da questão, que reside na existência de dificuldades enfrentadas por trabalhadores na obtenção do nexo causal entre seus agravos/adoecimentos, cuja causalidade mais complexa se explica a partir de várias mediações pouco consideradas nos atos periciais circunscritos apenas às anamneses clínicas de cunho biomédicas pautadas nos pressupostos da Medicina do Trabalho, Higiene e Saúde Ocupacional. As formas de superação à ideia de causa-efeito passam pelo entendimento de que o processo de adoecimento é social e histórico e de que é preciso buscar mediações entre trabalho e adoecimento para elucidar sintomatologias singulares a partir da experiência do desgaste coletivo. Tal averiguação deve, ao mesmo tempo, problematizar os próprios processos de trabalho dos atores sociais envolvidos nas investigações periciais e partir das prioridades definidas pelos próprios trabalhadores que atuam como sujeitos da análise da nocividade do trabalho para a saúde.


Abstract Expert testimonies commonly reduce the establishment of causal links between work and health/illness solely to the dichotomy of work/personal life. Based on the assumptions from the fields of Workers Health and Work-Related Mental Health, this essay problematizes the results of this issue, namely the difficulties faced by workers in establishing the causal link between their ailments/illnesses, whose more complex causality is explained through several mediations that are often overlooked by the limited expert acts restricted only to clinical anamneses based on Occupational Medicine, Hygiene, and Occupational Health. Overcoming the idea of cause and effect involves understanding that the process of falling ill is social and historical, and requires exploring the mediations between work and illness to elucidate singular symptomatology based on the collective wear and tear experience. Such an investigation should simultaneously problematize the very work processes of the social actors involved in the expert investigations, starting from the priorities defined by the workers themselves who act as subjects in the analysis of work-related harm to health.

ABSTRACT

Ao longo da década de 1980, a epidemia do HIV atingiu um grupo populacional já marginalizado, o dos homossexuais masculinos, e instigou preconceito semelhante aos infectados com lepra, independente de classe social. A epidemia, no entanto, desencadeou o surgimento de novas ONGs, o fortalecimento de antigas, a aprovação da união civil entre pessoas do mesmo sexo, tendo mobilizado entidades de classe, pastorais da igreja, profissionais de saúde e órgãos do governo para medidas de resposta ao problema inicialmente ignorado pela sociedade (MONTEIRO; VILELLA, 2009; CECÍLIO, 2009). A empreitada pelos direitos ao tratamento e à prevenção do HIV logrou êxito principalmente com relação ao princípio da universalidade do Sistema único de Saúde (SUS). Os princípios da equidade e da integralidade, entretanto, com relação ao tratamento dos que vivem com HIV, ainda está em construção. Nosso estudo, conduzido na Casa da Aids, em São Paulo, teve por objetivos: saber que tipo de acolhimento os pacientes recebem, se eles realmente têm abertura para falar sobre seus anseios e sobre seus hábitos mais íntimos; pesquisar se o acolhimento realizado pelos profissionais da instituição consegue animá-los para a próxima ida. Queremos saber como isso pode ocorrer e também como poderia garantir vínculo e adesão ao tratamento. Como metodologia, realizamos a observação participante, tendo por base as contribuições de Bosi (1979) e Minayo (1992). Trata-se de uma técnica de coleta de informações largamente utilizada na pesquisa qualitativa, sobretudo as de cunho etnográfico. Implica no observador se colocar em relação ao campo e aos sujeitos numa atitude a um só tempo aberta e expectante, todavia com escassa ou nenhuma intervenção no processo. Foram entrevistados 11 sujeitos, 6 pacientes e 5 profissionais de saúde, todos na Casa da Aids. Utilizamos o conteúdo narrado para coletar as histórias de vida dos personagens, e fizemos as nossas narrativas sobre eles em forma de hestórias patográficas (NUNES, 2018; NUNES, 2019; SOUZA, 2003) e de historiobiografias (CRITELLI, 2013). As narrativas conferem, para qualquer usuário do sistema de saúde, uma absorção da própria vivência na doença, uma maior oportunidade daquele sujeito se apropriar do seu processo e, quiçá, transformá-lo, dentro do processo de saúde, em fonte de vida; permite ao profissional ter uma maior visão dos reais sentimentos que o sujeito que vive uma doença tem por seu tratamento; também faz com que tanto o profissional quanto o usuário tenham visão do mundo do sujeito que experencia aquele processo e com que enxerguem uma luz para melhorar a trajetória dele no sentido de controlar aquela doença. Finalmente, sugerimos algumas mudanças no fluxo do serviço de saúde, a fim de suprir a necessidade de estreitamento na relação instituição-usuário.


Throughout de 80s, the HIV epidemic reached an already marginalized population group, that of male homosexuals, and instigated similar prejudice to those infected with leprosy, regardless of social class. The epidemic, however, triggered the emergence of new NGOs, the strengthening of old ones, the approval of civil unions between the same-sex individuals, mobilizing professional associations, church, church pastoral groups, health professionals and government bodies to tackle a problem initially ignored by society (MONTEIRO; VILELLA, 2009; CECÍLIO, 2009). The advocacy for the rights to HIV treatment and prevention was particularly successful in relation to the principle of Universality of the SUS. However, the principles of Equity and Integrality concerning the treatment of those living with HIV, are still under development. Our study, conducted at Casa da AIDS, in São Paulo, had the following objectives: to find out what kind of sheltering the patients received, whether they felt comfortable to talk about their desires and their most intimate habits; research whether the support provided by the institution's professionals motivate them for subsequent visits. We sought to explore how this could happen, and also how it could ensure a connection and adherence to treatment. We proceeded with participant observation, based on the contributions of Bosi (1979) and Minayo (1992). Observation is a widely used information collection technique in qualitative research, especially in ethnographic research. It involves the observer adopting an open and expectant attitude towards the field and subjects, with minimal or no intervention in the process. Eleven subjects were interviewed, including 6 patients and 5 healthcare professionals, all at Casa da Aids. We used the narrated content collected the life stories of the characters, presenting our narratives about the characters in the form of patographic histories(NUNES, 2018; NUNES, 2019; SOUZA, 2003) and of historiobiographies (CRITELLI, 2013). Narratives provide any healthcare system user with an absorption of their own experience with the disease, offering a greater opportunity for the individual to take ownership of their process and, perhaps, transform it into a source of life within the health process. They allow professionals to gain a deeper understanding of the true feelings a person that lives with a disease has towards their treatment. Additionally, narratives enable both professionals and users to see the world from the perspective of an individual with that condition, shedding light on ways to improve their journey in controlling that illness. Finally, we suggest some changes in the healthcare services flow, in order to meet the need for a closer relationship between institution and user.

ABSTRACT

A human resource base that ensures appropriate deployment of staff to emergencies, addressing different shock events in emergencies, without disrupting continuity of service is germane to a successful response. Consequently, the WHO Health Emergencies programme in the African Region, in collaboration with Africa Centre for Disease Control (ACDC) launched the African Volunteer Health Corps (AVoHC) and Strengthening and Utilization of Response Group for Emergencies (SURGE), an initiative aimed at ensuring a pool of timely responders. We explored the willingness of WHO staff to work in emergencies. A call for expression of interest to be part of the Elite Emergency Experts (Triple E) was published on 5th July 2022 via email and was open for 5 weeks. The responses were analyzed using simple descriptive statistics and presented with graphic illustrations. A total of 1253 WHO staff, from all the six WHO regions, cutting across all cadre, applied to the call. The applicants had various trainings and experiences in emergency and have responded to mostly disease outbreaks. Two-third of the applicants were males. This paper did not explore reasons for the willingness to work in emergencies. However, contrary to fears expressed in literature that health workers would not want to work in emergencies with potential for infections, the applicants have worked mostly in infectious emergencies. Literature identified some themes on factors that could impact on willingness of health workers to work in emergencies. These include concerns for the safety of the responders and impact of partners, child and elderly care, as well as other family obligations, which emergency planners must consider in planning emergency response.

ABSTRACT

Background: Emerging financing strategies in the health sector have been developed to improve the impact of investments and enhance healthcare outcomes. One promising approach is Results-based Financing, which establishes a connection between financial incentives and pre-established performance targets. This innovative approach holds the potential to strengthenhealthcare delivery and strengthen overall healthcare systems.Aim:The scoping review endeavored to systematically delineate the body of evidence pertaining tofacilitators and barriers to the implementation of performance-based financing within the realm of healthcare provision in low-and middle-income nations.Methods:The review used Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and a Meta-Analysis extension for Scoping Reviews checklist to select, appraise, and report the findings. We searched PubMed, Web of Science, and Google Scholar databases and grey literature published between January 2000 and March 2022. We conducted the abstract screening with two independent reviewers. We also performed full-article screening. We used the six methodological frameworks proposed by Arksey and O'Malley. The results were thematically analyzed.Results:Of the 1071 searched studies, 34 met the eligibility criteria. 41% of the studies were descriptive, 26% cross-sectional, 18% trial, and 15% cohort studies. The enabling and inhibiting factors of performance-based financing in healthcaredelivery have been identified. Moreover, the review revealed that performance-based financing's influence on service delivery is context-specific.Conclusion:The facilitators and impediments to the effectiveness of performance-based financing in enhancing service delivery are contingent upon a holistic comprehension of the contextual factors, meticulous design, and efficient execution. Factors such as the level of care facilities, presence of community-based initiatives, stakeholder involvement, and participatory design emerge as key facilitators. Conversely, barriers such as communication obstacles, inadequacies in the PBF models, and deficiencies in the healthcare workforce are recognized as inhibitors. By harnessing the insights derived from a multitude of evidence incorporated in this scrutiny, stakeholders can deftly navigate the intricacies of performance-based financing, while also considering the prospective areas for further exploration and research

ABSTRACT

Respectful Maternity Care (RMC) charter is one of the tools for ensuring quality of care in maternity services. Nigeria is a signatory to RMC charter; therefore, the charter is expected to be the standard of care. However, in Nigeria and other countries, reports of disrespectful maternity care abound; this discourages women from accessing facility-birth. Therefore, to improve the quality of care towards increase in uptake, it is expedient to assess the level of implementation of the RMC charter by key stakeholders for sustainability, impact and scale-up of charter-compliant maternity care in Nigeria. The study aims to assess the implementation of RMC charter in North-central Nigeria. The study is a mixed-method, cross-sectional study; the expected participants are key stakeholders in healthcare (Healthcare workers, Healthcare Administrators, Project Managers, Policy makers) in North-Central Nigeria (Federal Capital Territory and Kwara state). A multistage sampling technique would be used to enroll participants from 18 healthcare facilities (Primary, Private, Secondary and Tertiary) in rural and urban areas and Ministries of Health officials at local and state government levels. Expected outcomes: The study is expected to provide information on the current status of knowledge and implementation of the RMC charter in Nigeria. It would also identify the enablers and barriers to the implementation process and provide evidence for effective scale-up of the process in Nigeria. The outcomes will be widely disseminated to healthcare workers, health administrators and decision-makers in healthcare services through post-study meetings, conference presentations, journal publications and policy briefs for effective RMC charter implementation in Nigeria.

ABSTRACT

Background: Sudan's history is marred by ongoing sociopolitical challenges, with deep cultural divisions fueling numerous wars. A new conflict erupted on April 15, 2023, pushing the country closer to a full-scale civil war. This war has severely crippled Sudan's already fragile healthcare system, rendering 70% of hospitals in combat zones nonoperational, causing 12,000 deaths, thousands of injuries, and leaving 11 million in dire need of healthcare. More than seven million people are displaced, half of which are children, and are facing severe health challenges, especially vulnerable groups. Heath situation is threatening with unchecked spread of outbreaks of communicable diseases that were previously controlled and marked failure in meeting the health demands of patients with noncommunicable diseases, reproductive and child health issues, and people with serious conditions that require adequate follow-up. Moreover, the projections threaten with more catastrophic consequences including famine, environmental destruction, and further displacement of people. This review article highlights the urgency of the situation and explores potential solutions to enrich global understanding of crisis management. Methods: To comprehensively assess the impact of the crisis and propose a way forward, we drew data by exploring search engines and databases such as Google, Humanitarian Agencies Websites, Google Scholer, and PubMed along with some relevant reports. The search terms included are "Sudan's war", "impact of war on healthcare systems", and "Sudan's armed conflicts". Results: More than 19 publications on the impact of the war on health in addition to periodic reports from international organizations and governmental authorities were reviewed. Conclusion: Although all publications point to the gravity of the situation and the need for prompt response, this crisis offers a unique opportunity to rebuild Sudan's struggling healthcare system with the principles of social accountability. Through domestic and international collaboration, this sector can become a model for similar nations, meeting the needs of its people and promoting sustainable development.

ABSTRACT

La historia de los servicios médicos penitenciarios se remonta hace aproximadamente medio siglo, en la extinta Penitenciaria Nacional, donde al igual que, durante mucho tiempo estuvo a cargo de personeros de la Caja Costarricense del Seguro Social (CCSS). No es, hasta que al finalizar la década de los 80's, con el cierre del centro penal ubicado en la Isla San Lucas, se logra concretar la creación de plazas de salud propias del Ministerio de Justicia y Paz (MJP). En 1993 se logra el primer convenio interinstitucional entre la CCSS y el MJP, actualizado en 1998, el cual aún se encuentra refrendado por la Procuraduría General de la República. Actualmente, el MJP cuenta con 87 plazas asignas a puestos relacionados con servicios de salud a lo largo y ancho del territorio costarricense.


The history of prison medical services goes back approximately half a century, in the now extinct National Penitentiary, where, for a long time, it was in charge of representatives of CCSS. It is not, until at the end of the 80's, with the closure of the penal center located on San Lucas Island, the creation of health centers belonging to the Ministerio de Justicia y Paz (MJP) is achieved. In 1993, the first inter-institutional agreement between the CCSS and the MJP was reached, updated in 1998, which is still endorsed by the Attorney General's Office. Currently, the MJP has 87 positions assigned to positions related to health services throughout the Costa Rican territory.

ABSTRACT

En la actualidad Venezuela se encuentra en una crisis social y económica sin precedentes. La mortalidad materna(MM) es un indicador en salud importante, debido a que permite tener idea de la atención médica de un país; se mide a través de dos indicadores: Razón de Mortalidad Materna (RMM) y Tasa de Mortalidad Materna (TMM). Objetivo: Revisar y compararla evolución de ambos indicadores de MM desde la década de 1930 hasta la década 2000. Métodos: Se realizó una revisión de la literatura y de informes técnicos de organismos gubernamentales y no gubernamentales para el análisis de la situación previa y reciente de esta situación en Venezuela. Los resultados señalan que existe una notable disminución de las cifras de MM como ha de esperarse con el mejoramiento de la tecnología desde la década de 1930 hasta el año 2000; posteriormente ocurre un retroceso de la sanidad pública con cifras comparables a la década de 1960. Concluimos que la MM ha sido desde tiempos pasados un problema constante en la salud pública; al pasar los años y gobiernos, se han implementado numerosas políticas públicas para mejorar esta situación, muchas de estas estrategias han sido fallidas debido a la falta de su continuidad y de su cumplimiento pleno.


Venezuela is currently in an unprecedented socialand economic crisis. Maternal mortality is an important health indicator because it provides an idea of a country's medical care. Maternal mortality is usually measured through two indicators: Maternal Mortality Ratio (MMR) and Maternal Mortality Rate. Objective: Review and compare the evolution of both healthindicators from the 1930s to 2016. Methods: A review of the literature and technical reports from governmental andnon-governmental organizations was carried out to analyze theprevious and recent situation. of this situation in Venezuela. Theresults indicate that there is a notable decrease in the figures ofmaternal mortality, as should be expected with the improvementof technology from the 1930s to the year 2000. Subsequently, there is a decline in public health with figures comparable to the1960s. We conclude that maternal mortality has been a constant problem in public health since ancient times. Over the years and governments, numerous public policies have been implementedto improve this situation. Many of these strategies have beenfailed due to lack of continuity and in the absence of its full compliance.

ABSTRACT

Introduction: Judicially demanding the right to health involves different elements and can lead to changes in continuing education programs. The current trend is to follow this pathway to access low-frequency and high-cost medications. In addition, the Constitutional Court of Costa Rica requests a technical concept from forensic doctors. Objective: To raise the need for continuous updating in specific theoretical-practical academic knowledge required by forensic doctors to guarantee the right to health services. Reflection: The training of forensic medical doctors is focused on evidence and encourages continuous education. Nevertheless, a commitment is necessary in continuing medical education programs such as literature search strategies, critical assessment of evidence, and academic practices that incorporate particular circumstances comparing them with scientific studies. These programs must take into account prevalent medications and pathologies as well as technical-scientific factors that differ in each service provider. Conclusion: A continuing education program about the interpretation and assessment of scientific evidence for proper decision making on health issues would allow medical doctors to judge existing health problems and choose a medication that is the most beneficial for a patient.


Introducción: La judicialización del derecho a la salud involucra a distintos actores y puede propiciar cambios en programas de educación continua; pues la tendencia actual es recurrir a esta vía para acceder a medicamentos de baja frecuencia y alto costo. Adicionalmente, en Costa Rica la Sala Constitucional solicita el criterio técnico a médicos forenses. Objetivo: Plantear la necesidad de actualización continua en conocimientos académicos teóricos-prácticos específicos que requiere el médico forense para garantizar el derecho a los servicios de salud. Reflexión: El médico forense cuenta con formación basada en evidencias y se incentiva su formación continua, sin embargo, es necesario un compromiso con los programas de educación médica continua: en estrategias de búsqueda de literatura, valoración crítica de la evidencia encontrada y práctica académica que incorpore las circunstancias particulares, comparándolo con los resultados de estudios científicos; tomando en cuenta medicamentos y patologías prevalentes y los factores técnico-científicos de divergencia entre los prestadores de servicios. Conclusión: Un programa de formación continua sobre interpretación y valoración de la evidencia científica para la toma de decisiones en salud, permitiría a estos especialistas responder con mejor criterio si un medicamento es el tratamiento más beneficioso para un paciente debido a sus problemas de salud.

ABSTRACT

Resumo: Puerpério é o termo utilizado para designar o período que sucede ao parto. Trata-se, no entanto, para além de um período de tempo, um momento com características peculiares, de transformações intensas e desafiadoras, tanto de cunho pessoal, quanto para o grupo social que o experiencia conjuntamente, a família. E por considerar este grupo social como significante nesse período é que este estudo busca compreender o significado da experiência do puerpério para as famílias; bem como desenvolver uma teoria substantiva representativa que explicite esta experiência; e propor contribuições para nortear o cuidado em saúde às famílias durante o puerpério. Trata-se de uma pesquisa qualitativa, do tipo interpretativista, que adotou como referencial metodológico a Teoria Fundamentada nos Dados em sua corrente Corbiniana e, como aporte teórico, a perspectiva do Interacionismo Simbólico. A coleta de dados ocorreu entre fevereiro de 2021 e dezembro de 2022, mediante construção de genogramas, ecomapas e entrevistas, realizados com 39 membros de 14 famílias que experienciavam o puerpério não patológico, distribuídas em dois grupos amostrais. Os dados foram organizados com o apoio do software NVivo®, apoiados pela construção de memorandos, diagramas, através da codificação dos dados nas seguintes etapas: aberta, axial e integrativa. Seus resultados levaram ao desenvolvimento da teoria substantiva "A experiência do puerpério para as famílias: uma travessia", representada pelo conceito central "Atravessando o puerpério", que se sustenta em 35 elementos, 9 subconceitos e 3 conceitos: "Identificando a etapa do puerpério"; "Movendo-se por mudanças intensas e desafios", e "Transformando-se no decorrer da travessia". Posteriormente à sua elaboração, a teoria passou por validação com representantes de três famílias que estavam percorrendo o puerpério. Percebeu-se que para as famílias o puerpério é singular, mas construído a partir das interações sociais que se desenvolvem ao longo da vida dos membros da família e incorre em transformações diversas, impactantes e acumulativas, tanto em nível pessoal, como social. Assim, sugere-se que a atuação dos profissionais de saúde no puerpério seja centrada na família e nas interações ocorridas dentro dela, de forma a contemplar as especificidades de cada contexto social em que as pessoas envolvidas se movem e interagem para superar a crise suscitada pela adição de seu novo integrante, conforme proposições no texto. Para viabilizar essa concepção ampliada do cuidar no puerpério, indica-se que isso aconteça através de diretrizes na formação profissional, enquanto conteúdo de disciplina/curso em áreas de concentração pertinentes, assim como, na prática por meio de educação permanente aos profissionais, bem como na construção de políticas públicas que superem um olhar do puerpério como um momento fisiológico, para integrar a percepção de seu cunho social. Almeja-se que essa construção teórica possa alcançar gestores, líderes, profissionais e famílias e que desperte o desejo de trocas profícuas em favor da melhoria da atenção à saúde às famílias em todas as ocasiões em que elas estiverem atravessando o puerpério.


Abstract: Postpartum is the term used to designate the period following childbirth. It is, nevertheless, not only a period of time, but a moment of singular characteristics, of intense and challenging transformation, both on a personal basis as for the social group experiencing it together, the family. By considering this social group as significant in this period, this study aims to understand the meaning of the postpartum experience for family members; to develop a representative substantive theory to explicate this experience; and to propose contributions to guide the healthcare of the families during postpartum. A qualitative research, of an interpretative nature, which adopted as methodological reference Corbin's Grounded Theory and, as theoretical contribution, the Symbolic Interactionism perspective. Data collection occurred between February 2021 and December 2022, through the design of genograms, ecomaps and interviews, conducted with 39 members of 14 families who experienced non-pathological postpartum, distributed into two sample groups. Data was organized using the NVivo® software, supported by the creation of memoranda, diagrams, through the coding of data in the following stages: open, axial and integrative. The results led to the development of the substantive theory "The postpartum experience for families: a journey", represented by the core concept "A journey through postpartum", which is based on 35 elements, 9 sub-concepts and 3 concepts: "Identifying the postpartum period"; "Moving through intense changes and challenges", and "Transforming oneself in the course of the journey". After its preparation, the theory was validated by representatives of three families who were going through the postpartum period. It was observed that for these families, postpartum is singular, but built from social interactions that were developed throughout the lives of the family members and results in various, impactful and cumulative transformations, both personally and socially. Accordingly, it is suggested that the work of health professionals be centered on the family and on interactions that occur within it, in order to consider the specificities of each social context in which the people involved move and interact in order to overcome any crises raised by the addition of a new member, according to the propositions of the text. To enable this expanded conception of healthcare during postpartum, this should occur through guidelines during professional training, as discipline/course content in pertinent areas of concentration, as well as during practice, through continued education for professionals, and the development of public policies overcoming the perspective of postpartum as a physiological moment, integrating the perception of its social nature. It is hoped that this theoretical construct may reach managers, leaders, professionals and families, awakening the will for fruitful exchanges in favor of improving the healthcare of families in their journey through the postpartum.

ABSTRACT

Mpoxou Varíola M é uma zoonose causada por vírus do gênero Orthopoxvirus, causadores também da varíola comum. É uma doença considerada rara e autolimitada, sendo endêmica em países africanos. Entretanto, no ano de 2022 ganhou destaque devido ao surto global que se iniciou, quando o mundo ainda se recuperava da pandemia da COVID-19. Dessa forma, por se tratar de uma doença emergente, a presente revisão visa pontuar aspectos gerais do que se sabe até o momento sobre a Mpox, desde sua imunopatogenia até as formas atuais de prevenção e cuidados pós-infecção


Mpox or Variola M is a zoonosis caused by viruses of the genus Orthopoxvirus, which also cause smallpox. It is a disease considered rare and self-limiting, being endemic in African countries. However, in 2022, it gained prominence due to the global outbreak that began when the world was still recovering from the COVID-19 pandemic. Thus, as it is an emerging disease, this review aims to point out general aspects of what is known so far about Mpox, from its immunopathogenesis to current forms of prevention and post-infection care

ABSTRACT

Introducción: La COVID-19 significó un gran reto para los servicios de cirugía a nivel mundial, lo que trajo como consecuencia modificaciones, incluso la suspensión de la actividad quirúrgica en algunos casos con el objetivo de garantizar seguridad tanto para el paciente como para el personal de salud. Objetivo: Describir acciones que contribuyan a garantizar condiciones de bioseguridad en ambientes quirúrgicos durante la pandemia de COVID-19. Métodos: Se realizó una revisión bibliográfica para la cual se usaron 37 referencias bibliográficas en inglés y español. Se consultaron fuentes científicas como PubMed/Medline, SciELO, Scopus, ScienceDirect y fuentes oficiales como la Organización Mundial de la Salud. Desarrollo: Ante la reanudación de la cirugía electiva se crearon protocolos de actuación. Deben clasificarse los pacientes en 3 grupos según la posibilidad de padecer COVID-19: individuos sanos, portadores asintomáticos y pacientes con síntomas. Además, debe darse prioridad a los pacientes cuyos procedimientos fueron cancelados. Se preconiza crear circuitos independientes y separados para evitar el contacto de casos sospechosos o confirmados de COVID-19 con el resto de pacientes. Para garantizar mayor seguridad debe entrenarse al personal médico en la forma correcta de utilizar los medios de protección personal. La inducción anestésica de estos pacientes debe garantizar su seguridad y prevenir el contagio. Una vez concluida la cirugía, se llevará a cabo la recuperación inicial del paciente dentro del propio quirófano y este será higienizado estrictamente. Conclusiones: Los profesionales sanitarios deben estar adecuadamente entrenados y conocer las medidas de bioseguridad y protocolos sanitarios tanto del hospital como del país en que se encuentren(AU)


Introduction: COVID-19 posed a great challenge to surgical services worldwide, resulting in modifications, including the suspension of surgical activity in some cases with the aim of ensuring safety for both the patient and the health personnel. Objective: To describe actions that contribute to guarantee biosafety conditions in surgical environments during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods: A bibliographic review was carried out using 37 bibliographic references in English and Spanish. Scientific sources, such as PubMed/Medline, SciELO, Scopus and ScienceDirect, were consulted; as well as official sources, such as the World Health Organization. Development: When elective surgery was resumed, action protocols were created. Patients should be classified into 3 groups, according to the possibility of having COVID-19: healthy individuals, asymptomatic carriers, and patients with symptoms. In addition, priority should be given to patients whose procedures have been cancelled. Independent and isolated wards are recommended to be created in order to avoid contact between suspected or confirmed COVID-19 cases and the rest of the patients. To ensure greater safety, the medical personnel should be trained in the correct use of personal protective equipment. The anesthetic induction of these patients should ensure their safety and prevent contagion. Once the surgery is over, the initial recovery of the patient will be carried out inside the operating room itself, which shall be strictly sanitized. Conclusions: Healthcare professionals must be adequately trained and be aware of the biosecurity measures and healthcare protocols of both the hospital and the country where they are located(AU)
