ABSTRACT

Objetivo: Descrever a importância do processo de educação em saúde reali- zado pelo enfermeiro aos pacientes hipertensos na atenção básica. Metodologia: Trata-se de uma revisão bibliográfica, onde foram utilizados artigos científicos identificados nas bases de dados: SciELO, LILACS e MEDLINE. Um total de 4.427 estudos foram encon- trados, após o refinamento oito foram selecionados para compor a amostra. Resultados: A estratégia educativa em saúde tem grande efetivação no tratamento da HAS, visto que o enfermeiro vai conhecer o paciente e direcioná-lo ao tratamento adequado, monitorando seu estado de saúde e evitando possíveis agravos. Contudo, o abandono do tratamento pelo cliente é uma das maiores dificuldades enfrentadas pelo o enfermeiro. Além disso, desafios no contexto do processo de trabalho em equipe e barreiras relacionadas à estru- tura física nas unidades de saúde. Considerações finais: O enfermeiro exerce um papel importante dentro do contexto da hipertensão arterial. Trazendo a prática baseada em evi- dências como abordagem, garantindo adesão ao tratamento e o controle dos níveis pres- sóricos da HAS.


Objective: To describe the importance of the health education process carried out by nurses with hypertensive patients in primary care. Methodology: This is a bibliographic review, where scientific articles identified in the databases: SciELO, LILACS and MEDLINE were used. A total of 4,427 studies were found, after refinement, eight were selected to compose the sample. Results: The health education strategy is highly effective in the treatment of SAH, as the nurse will get to know the patient and direct him to the appropriate treatment, monitoring his health status and avoiding possible injuries. However, abandonment of treatment by the client is one of the greatest difficulties faced by the nurse. In addition, challenges in the context of the teamwork process and barriers related to the physical structure in health units. Final considerations: Nurses play an important role within the context of arterial hypertension. Bringing evidence-based practice as an approach, ensuring adherence to treatment and control of blood pressure levels in SAH.

ABSTRACT

La hipertensión arterial es una de las enfermedades crónicas de mayor incidencia a nivel mundial, produce una importante mortalidad y discapacidad. Este trabajo tuvo por objetivo evaluar el efecto del uso de mensajes de texto en dispositivos de telefonía móvil en la adherencia al tratamiento de hipertensión arterial. Se efectuó un estudio de intervención cuasiexperimental, de antes y después, en el cual se entrevistó a pacientes que pertenecían a un programa ambulatorio de enfermedades crónicas. Se formaron 4 grupos, uno de ellos, el grupo control. A los grupos intervenidos se les remitieron mensajes de texto (educativos/motivadores), con diferentes frecuencias de envío, por un período de 2 meses. Al término de la intervención, se pidió llenar el cuestionario Martín-Bayarre-Grau para determinar su adherencia al tratamiento antihipertensivo antes y después de la intervención. Se realizó un análisis bivariado, en el cual se comparó la variable adherencia al tratamiento, antes y después de la intervención, de los cuatro grupos del estudio. Se encontró solo una diferencia significativa en el grupo 3 (p = 0,011), al cual se le enviaron 8 mensajes al mes (2 por semana). También se comparó, después de los 2 meses, a los grupos sometidos a intervención versus el grupo control; se halló una diferencia significativa en el grupo 3 (p = 0,022). La intervención ha demostrado ser útil para mejorar la adherencia en esta población de estudio. Se obtuvo una respuesta positiva en el grupo 3, que recibió 8 mensajes al mes(AU)


Hypertension is one of the chronic diseases with the highest incidence worldwide and a cause of considerable mortality and disability. This paper aims to evaluate the effect of mobile phone text messaging on adherence to hypertension treatment. A quasi-experimental before-after intervention was conducted based on interviews with patients from a chronic disease outpatient program. Four groups were formed, one of which was the control group. The groups intervened were sent encouraging educational text messages at varying frequencies for a period of two months. At the close of the intervention, participants were asked to fill in the Martín Bayarre Grau questionnaire to determine their adherence to antihypertensive treatment before and after the intervention. A bivariate analysis was performed comparing the variable adherence to treatment before and after the intervention in the four study groups. A significant difference was only found in Group 3 (p = 0.011). This group was sent eight messages per month (two messages per week). Additionally, a comparison between the intervention groups and the control group conducted at two months found a significant difference in Group 3 (p = 0.022). The intervention proved was useful to improve adherence in the study population. A positive response was obtained in Group 3, who received eight messages per month(AU)

ABSTRACT

Introduction: Glycemic decompensation in diabetes is one of the major factors for the development of chronic disease complications. Factors involved in the adequate control of diabetes include adherence to pharmacological treatment and knowledge about the disease.Methods: Cross-sectional study on the factors associated with adherence to drug treatment and knowledge about diabetes in diabetic patients treated at Hospital Universitário de Santa Maria between 2018 and 2019, based on the validated Morisky-Green test and on the Diabetes Knowledge Questionnaire.Results: A total of 201 patients diagnosed with diabetes were included, the majority (85.6%) of which had type 2 diabetes and were white (75.6%), with a mean age of 59.4 years. An association between insufficient knowledge about diabetes and patients with type 2 diabetes was observed. An association was found between patients with type 2 diabetes using insulin and non-adherence to drug treatment compared with patients with type 2 diabetes who did use insulin. The research also showed that non-adherence to drug treatment was associated with higher occurrence of hypoglycemia compared with patients who adhered to drug treatment.Conclusion: The data obtained in our study allows us to conclude that non-adherence to pharmacological treatment makes diabetes therapy more complicated and worsens the prognosis.

ABSTRACT

OBJETIVO: Evidenciar a influência dos aspectos subjetivos na adesão ao tratamento do transtorno bipolar. MÉTODOS: Foi realizada revisão sistemática com base nas diretrizes PRISMA. A identificação dos estudos foi realizada por meio da busca nos bancos de dados PubMed, Scopus e SciELO, com base nos descritores "Bipolar Disorder" AND "Treatment Adherence and Compliance" AND "Mental Health". A busca contemplou todos os artigos publicados até o ano 2020, sem restrição de idioma. RESULTADOS: Foram localizados 743 artigos, 714 foram excluídos no processo de seleção, 29 foram lidos na íntegra e 11 foram elegíveis para a composição da amostra. A influência dos aspectos subjetivos na adesão ao tratamento foi associada (1) às atitudes resultantes das percepções do sujeito sobre o transtorno e o tratamento e (2) as atitudes por influência de pessoas próximas. Os estudos apontam para a ocorrência de atitudes negativas em ambas as esferas, tendo a má adesão ao tratamento como desfecho. Na esfera da percepção do sujeito, evidenciam-se: presença de comportamentos intencionais e não intencionais; percepção de consequências; medo dos efeitos colaterais; sentimentos negativos; falta de compreensão sobre o transtorno e negação do diagnóstico. Na esfera da influência das pessoas próximas, destacam-se a baixa qualidade da aliança terapêutica e o suporte ineficaz oferecido pela família. CONCLUSÕES: Para melhorar a adesão ao tratamento do transtorno bipolar, é salutar que os esforços terapêuticos estejam centrados na experiência particular do sujeito, na sua satisfação e na colaboração pactuada com o tratamento.


OBJECTIVE: Evidence the influence of subjective aspects on adherence to the treatment of bipolar disorder. METHODS: A systematic review was performed based on the PRISMA guidelines. The identification of studies was performed by searching the PubMed, Scopus and Scielo databases based on the descriptors "Bipolar Disorder" AND "Treatment Adherence and Compliance" AND "Mental Health". The selection included all articles published up to the year 2020 and without language restrictions. RESULTS: A total of 743 articles were found, 714 were excluded from the selection process, 29 articles were read in full and 11 were eligible for sample composition. The influence of subjective aspects on treatment adherence was associated (1) with attitudes resulting from the subject's perceptions about the disorder and treatment and (2) attitudes influenced by people close to them. Studies point to the occurrence of negative attitudes in both spheres, with poor adherence to treatment as an outcome. In the sphere of the subject's perception, they show the presence of intentional and unintentional behaviors; perception of consequences; fear of side effects; negative feelings; lack of understanding about the disorder and denial of diagnosis. In the sphere of influence of those close to them, they highlight the low quality of the therapeutic alliance and the ineffective support offered by the family. CONCLUSIONS: To improve adherence to treatment for bipolar disorder, it is beneficial that therapeutic efforts are centered on the individual's particular experience, on their satisfaction and on the agreed collaboration with the treatment.

ABSTRACT

Abstract Background Cardiovascular disease is the main cause of death worldwide. There is a lack of studies addressing this issue in women and its risk factors, such as hypertension. Objective To evaluate the clinical and therapeutic profile of women with hypertension and to determine which factors are related to treatment adherence and blood pressure control. Methods Cross-sectional study of 181 hypertensive women treated at an outpatient referral clinic. Data were obtained from medical records, face-to-face interviews, and physical examination, using a standardized form. Statistical analysis was performed with prevalence ratio, chi-square and Student's t test. Significance was accepted at p<0.05. Results Most patients were mixed-race or black (91.7%) and the mean age was 66.09 years. Only 44.2% of patients had controlled blood pressure. The prevalence of stroke was 14.9%, whereas the prevalence of coronary artery disease was 19.3%. The mean number of oral antihypertensive drugs prescribed to each individual was 3.41. A history of stroke was more often found in patients with uncontrolled blood pressure (p=0.013) and in those using three or more antihypertensives (p=0.023). Eighty patients (44.2%) had high treatment adherence. Depression was more frequently reported by patients with poorer adherence to treatment (p=0.026). Conclusion Women with hypertension presented a high prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors and cardiovascular events, including a significantly higher prevalence of stroke in those with uncontrolled hypertension. Self-reported depression may help identify patients at risk of nonadherence to treatment.

ABSTRACT

Introdução: A falta de adesão à fonoterapia é comum na área de voz. Diversos fatores podem estar associados, porém poucos estudos se propuseram a estudar características emocionais dos pacientes. Objetivo: Verificar se o traço e estado de ansiedade, transtornos mentais comuns e sintomas vocais podem diferenciar pacientes com e sem adesão à fonoterapia em voz. Métodos: Estudo retrospectivo, de campo e quantitativo. Participaram 24 pacientes, com média das idades de 47,79 (+18.83) anos, distribuídos em: Grupo de pacientes que aderiram à fonoterapia (PAF) e pacientes que não aderiram à fonoterapia na área de voz (PNAF). Foram aplicados a Escala de Sintomas vocais (ESV), Self Reporting Questionnaire (SRQ) e Inventário de Ansiedade Traço-Estado. Resultados: Pacientes do PAF apresentaram médias de 34.20 (+10,67) e 39,53 (+11,09) para o traço e estado de ansiedade, respectivamente. Enquanto participantes do PNAF apresentaram médias de 33.89 (+10,34) e 45,22 (+9,34), respectivamente. No que se refere ao SRQ-20, pacientes do PAF obtiveram média de 5,93 (+3,99) e o PNAF de 7,33 (+3,66). Finalmente, o grupo PAF apresentou média de 56,54 (+27,51) e o PNAF de 46,38 (+15,80) para o escore total da ESV. Não foram observadas diferenças entre os grupos para o traço e estado de ansiedade, SRQ e escore total da ESV. Conclusão: Pacientes sem adesão à fonoterapia em voz apresentam menores graus de escolaridade, de sintomas vocais e escores mais elevados de transtornos mentais comuns. Entretanto não foram fatores decisivos para diferenciá-los quanto à adesão à fonoterapia vocal.


Introduction: The lack of adherence to speech therapy is common in the voice area. Several factors may be associated, but few studies have been proposed to study patients' emotional characteristics. Purpose: To verify if trait and state of anxiety, common mental disorders and vocal symptoms may differ patients with and without adherence to voice therapy. Methods: Retrospective, field and quantitative study. The participants were 24 patients, with a mean age of 47.79 (+18.83) years, distributed in: Group of patients who adhered to speech therapy (PAST) and patients who did not adhere to speech therapy in the voice area (PNAST). The Voice Symptom Scale (VoiSS), Self Reporting Questionnaire (SRQ) and Trait-State Anxiety Inventory were applied. Results: PAST patients had averages of 34.20 (+10.67) and 39.53 (+11.09) for the trait and state of anxiety, respectively. While PNAST patients had averages of 33.89 (+10.34) and 45.22 (+9.34), respectively. With regard to the SRQ-20, PAST patients obtained an average of 5.93 (+3.99) and the PNAST of 7.33 (+3.66). Finally, the PAST group had an average of 56.54 (+27.51) and the PNAST, of 46.38 (+15.80) for the VoiSS total score. There were no significant differences between groups for trait and state of anxiety, SRQ and total VoiSS score. Conclusion: Patients without adherence to speech therapy have lower levels of education, vocal symptoms and higher scores for common mental disorders. However, these were not decisive factors to differentiate these patients about adherence to voice therapy.


Introducción: La falta de adherencia a la terapia del habla es común en el área de la voz. Se pueden asociar varios factores, pero pocos estudios han propuesto estudiar las características emocionales de los pacientes. Objetivo: Verificar si el rasgo y el estado de ansiedad, los trastornos mentales comunes y los síntomas vocales pueden diferenciar a los pacientes con y sin adherencia a la terapia del habla en la voz. Métodos: Estudio retrospectivo, de campo y cuantitativo. Participaron 24 pacientes, con una edad media de 47,79 (+18,83) años, distribuidos en: Grupo de pacientes que adhirieron a la terapia del habla (PATH) y pacientes que no se adhirieron a la terapia del habla en el área de la voz (PNATH). Se aplicaron la Escala de síntomas de voz (ESV), el Self Reporting Questionnaire (SRQ) y el Inventario de ansiedad por rasgo- estado. Resultados: los pacientes con PATH tuvieron promedios de 34.20 (+10.67) y 39.53 (+11.09) para el rasgo y el estado de ansiedad, respectivamente. Mientras que los participantes de PNATH tuvieron promedios de 33.89 (+10.34) y 45.22 (+9.34), respectivamente. Con respecto al SRQ-20, los pacientes del PATH obtuvieron un promedio de 5.93 (+3.99) y el PNATH de 7.33 (+3.66). Finalmente, el grupo PATH tuvo un promedio de 56.54 (+27.51) y el PNATH de 46.38 (+15.80) para el puntaje total de ESV. No hubo diferencias entre los grupos para el rasgo (p = 0,98) y el estado (p = 019) de ansiedad, SRQ (p = 0,4) y la puntuación total de ESV (p = 0,18). Conclusión: Los pacientes sin adherencia a la terapia del habla tienen niveles más bajos de educación, síntomas vocales y puntuaciones más altas para los trastornos mentales comunes. Sin embargo, no fueron factores decisivos para diferenciarlos con respecto a la adherencia a la terapia del habla vocal.

ABSTRACT

Introducción: El papel fundamental de un sistema de salud es responder a las necesidades de la población, lo cual implica desarrollar mecanismos que permitan una prestación integral, accesible y equitativa a sus servicios. Objetivos: Valorar las barreras de acceso a la atención de salud y la adherencia en pacientes con tuberculosis en una región de alta carga en el Perú. Métodos: Investigación de enfoque mixto, realizada en el periodo de enero a septiembre del 2018 en 120 pacientes con tuberculosis. Para el enfoque cuantitativo se realizó un estudio transversal analítico, donde se abordaron preguntas de acceso a servicios de salud utilizando el modelo de Tanahashi. La adherencia al tratamiento fue medida a través del test de Morisky-Green. Para el diseño cualitativo se utilizó la metodología de grupos focales con 30 pacientes para profundizar sus experiencias acerca de los determinantes de acceso. Resultados: La mayoría de las barreras se identificaron en las dimensiones: aceptabilidad, contacto y disponibilidad. Se encontró asociación entre la adherencia al tratamiento y los siguientes indicadores: el temor o vergüenza de atenderse en un servicio de salud, desconfianza con los equipos de salud, percepción de mala calidad de la atención, falta de conciencia de la enfermedad, efectos secundarios de los medicamentos el número y tamaño de las píldoras. Conclusiones: Los hallazgos del presente estudio sugieren la existencia de barreras contextuales y del sistema de salud que impiden el acceso a los pacientes con tuberculosis, y si estas no se tienen en consideración podrían dificultar la adherencia del tratamiento para tuberculosis. Sin embargo, conseguir actuar dentro de una lógica que privilegie una asistencia centrada en el paciente, considerando sus singularidades y autonomía frente al proceso terapéutico puede tornarse una tarea difícil para los servicios de salud donde la demanda supera los recursos y su estructura(AU)


Introduction: The fundamental role of a health system is to respond to the needs of the population, which involves developing mechanisms that enable a comprehensive, accessible and equitable delivery of its services. Objectives: Assess access barriers to health care and adherence in TB patients in a high-burden region of Peru. Methods: Mixed-approach research conducted in the period January to September 2018 in 120 TB patients. For the quantitative approach, an analytical cross-sectional study was conducted, where questions on access to health services were addressed using the Tanahashi model. Adherence to treatment was measured through the Morisky-Green test. For qualitative design, the focus group methodology with 30 patients was used to deepen in their experiences of access determinants. Results: Most barriers were identified in the following dimensions: acceptability, contact and availability. An association was found between adherence to treatment and the following indicators: the fear or shame of being attended in a health service, mistrust with health teams, perception of poor quality of care, lack of awareness of the disease, side effects of medications, the number and size of the pills. Conclusions: The findings of this study suggest contextual and health system barriers that prevent access to TB patients, and if these are not taken into account, they could hinder adherence to TB treatment. However, acting within a logic that favors patient-centered care, considering its uniqueness and autonomy from the therapeutic process can become a difficult task for health services where demand exceeds the resources and their structure(AU)

ABSTRACT

INTRODUCCIÓN: La resistencia antibiótica y una inadecuada adherencia terapéutica son fenómenos que favorecen la proliferación de la tuberculosis. Los cambios sociodemográficos nos desafían a conocer la realidad actual de la enfermedad a través de antecedentes que nos permitan contextualizar un nuevo escenario. OBJETIVO: Caracterizar el perfil biopsicosocial del paciente con tuberculosis y su relación con la adherencia terapéutica. MATERIAL Y MÉTODO: Estudio descriptivo, transversal, correlacional. Muestra de 90 pacientes tratados en 35 Centros de Salud Familiar de los Servicios de Salud de Iquique, Metropolitano Norte, Concepción y Reloncaví. RESULTADOS: los componentes biopsicosociales como edad, antecedentes de enfermedad mental, autoestima, situación sentimental, pertenencia a grupos de riesgo, alcoholismo, drogadicción y situación de calle presentaron una relación estadísticamente significación con la adherencia terapéutica. CONCLUSIONES: La caracterización biopsicosocial del paciente con tuberculosis visibiliza nuevos factores relacionados con la adherencia que deben ser considerados para una atención interdisciplinaria.


BACKGROUND: Antibiotic resistance and inadequate therapeutic adherence are phenomena that promote the proliferation of tuberculosis. Sociodemographic changes challenge us to know the real situation of the disease and allows us to contextualize a new scenario.

ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT Objective: To evaluate the level of self-referenced treatment adherence (TA) and its association with clinical and sociodemographic variables in patients with cystic fibrosis assisted at a reference center, as well as compare the level of self-referenced TA with that presumed by the multidisciplinary team. Methods: This is a cross-sectional study that included children and adolescents aged between 0-20 years with cystic fibrosis. Adolescents older than 14 years or their guardians, when younger than 14 years old, were interviewed using a standardized questionnaire. Professionals from the multidisciplinary clinic filled out another form with their impressions of the patients' TA. Clinical and laboratory data were obtained in the medical records. The TA was considered satisfactory if the total adherence index (TAI) was equal or higher than 80%. Results: 53 patients were included with a median age of 112 months. The mean TAI was 83.2%. The mean TAIs for dornase alfa, pancreatic enzymes, continued use of inhaled tobramycin, vitamins supplements, nutritional supplements and dietary orientation was respectively: 86.1; 96.6; 78.6; 88.1; 51.8 and 78%. Children younger than 14 years presented better TA (p=0.021). The correlation between the self-referenced TA and the one presumed by the multidisciplinary team ranged from 0,117 to 0.402, being higher for Psychology and Nutrition professionals. Conclusions: The TAI was high particularly among children younger than 14 years. There was a positive correlation between the self-referenced TA and the one presumed by the Psychology (p=0.032) and the nutrition (p=0.012) professionals.


RESUMO Objetivo: Avaliar o grau de adesão ao tratamento (AT) autorreferida e pesquisar sua associação com variáveis clínicas e sociodemográficas em pacientes com fibrose cística (FC) de um centro de referência e comparar o grau de AT autorreferida com o presumido pela equipe multidisciplinar. Métodos: Estudo transversal, incluindo crianças e adolescentes com FC entre zero e 20 anos. Foram realizadas entrevistas com os adolescentes maiores de 14 anos ou com os responsáveis dos mais jovens, utilizando-se formulário padronizado. Profissionais do centro preencheram outro formulário com suas impressões da AT dos pacientes. Registraram-se dados clínicos por meio da revisão de prontuários. A AT foi considerada satisfatória se o índice de adesão global (IAG) fosse igual ou superior a 80%. Resultados: Foram incluídos 53 pacientes, com mediana de idade de 112 meses. O IAG médio foi de 83,2%. Os índices de adesão à terapêutica (IAT) médios para alfadornase, enzimas pancreáticas, tobramicina inalatória de uso contínuo, suplementos vitamínicos, suplementos nutricionais e orientações dietéticas foram, respectivamente, 86,1; 96,6; 78,6; 88,1; 51,8 e 78%. Crianças com idade inferior a 14 anos apresentaram melhor AT (p=0,021). As correlações entre a AT autorreferida e a presumida pelos profissionais variaram de 0,117 a 0,402, sendo maiores para a psicologia e a nutrição. Conclusões: A taxa global de AT foi elevada, principalmente para menores de 14 anos. Houve correlação positiva entre a AT autorreferida e as avaliações da psicologia (p=0,032) e da nutrição (p=0,012).

ABSTRACT

INTRODUCCIÓN: Generar evidencia sobre los efectos de la posición social en la adhe-rencia terapéutica en personas con hipertensión arterial (HTA) en Colombia. MATERIALES Y MÉTODOS: Se realizó un estudio transversal, a partir de mediciones cuan-titativas del Programa de Determinantes Sociales e Inequidades en el Control de la HTA en Colombia. Se desarrollaron análisis descriptivos e inferenciales (regresión logística) para modelar las asociaciones. RESULTADOS: Se evidenció una alta proporción de adherencia, siendo mayor para cumplimiento farmacológico y las citas (>50%). Las personas con menor educación e ingresos tienen menor posibilidad de adherirse al tratamiento farmacológico; mientras que quienes tienen mejor posición socioeconómica tienen menor posibilidad de adherirse a las citas y a las conductas saludables. Los afrocolombianos tienen menor posibilidad de adherirse al tratamiento farmacológico, a las citas y a la actividad física. DISCUSIÓN: Existe una brecha en el logro de la adherencia a tratamiento de HTA en Colombia, debido a condiciones socioeconómicas y étnica/raciales.


INTRODUCTION: To generate evidence on the effects of social position on therapeutic adherence among individuals with hypertension (HT) in Colombia. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A cross-sectional study was carried out, using quantitative data from the Social Determinants and Inequities in the Control of HT Program in Colombia. Descriptive and inferential analyses (logistic regression) were developed to model the associations. RESULTS: The prevalence of adherence was high, especially for pharmacological treat-ment and compliance with appointments (>50%). Individuals with less education and lower income are less likely to adhere to pharmacological treatment, while tho-se with higher socioeconomic status are less likely to adhere to appointments and healthy behaviors. Afro-Colombians were less likely to adhere to pharmacological treatment, appointments, and indications regarding physical activity. DISCUSSION: There is a gap in HT treatment adherence in Colombia, due to socioeco-nomic and ethnic/racial conditions

ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT Objectives: to verify the association between knowledge and adherence to foot self-care practices performed by patients with diabetes mellitus type 2. Methods: cross-sectional, descriptive study carried out with 197 patients in basic health units located in the Northeast region of Brazil. For data collection, we used a semi-structured questionnaire that addressed issues inherent to knowledge and Diabetes Self-Care Activities. Results: we observed that patients with moderate knowledge about self-care practices were more likely to perform foot self-examination, dry the interdigital spaces, moisturize their feet with creams and oils, observe the presence of mycosis and ingrown toenail when compared to patients with insufficient knowledge. Conclusions: the patients' level of knowledge was closely related to the self-care activities carried out, which reinforces the importance of nurses working on training those on essential health care.

ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: Nonadherence to antiretroviral therapy (ART) may lead to viral replication and development of antiretroviral resistance. OBJECTIVE: To identify the factors associated with nonadherence to ART among people living with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)/acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) (PLWHA). DESIGN AND SETTING: Cross-sectional study in a tertiary-level hospital in northeastern Brazil. METHODS: Intake of less than 90% of the antiretroviral drugs prescribed in the last week prior to the interview was defined as nonadherence. Intake was evaluated using a questionnaire. Descriptive and multivariate analyses were conducted on the study population, with estimation of the respective odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals. RESULTS: The prevalence of nonadherence was 28.4%. Significant associations were found regarding the following variables: age less than 35 years, smoking, sedentary lifestyle, lack of medication and lack of knowledge regarding the patient's HIV status, on the part of the patient's partner or family. CONCLUSIONS: Encouragement of adherence to antiretroviral therapy is one of the fundamental pillars of treatment for HIV-infected patients. The high proportion of nonadherence (28.4%) and the predictive factors related to this indicate that it is necessary to improve patients' adherence to antiretroviral therapy.

ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT Objective: To analyze the influence of social incentives for adherence to tuberculosis (TB) treatment. Method: Qualitative study, in which 26 primary health care professionals of São Paulo were interviewed in 2015.Their testimonies were submitted to the speech analysis technique. The theoretical reference was the social determination of the health-disease process. Ethical procedures were observed. Results: TB is related to precarious living conditions. Incentives such as the basic food basket and transportation stipends are relevant for patients' adherence to treatment, as well as to the create bonds between the patient and the health team. Final considerations: The incentives strengthened adherence to TB treatment. However, interventions in the context of public measures must transcend the remedial dimension and be guided towards the transformation of the TB situation, which means supporting processes that modify living conditions.


RESUMEN Objetivo: Analizar la influencia de los incentivos sociales en la adhesión al tratamiento de la tuberculosis (TB). Método: Estudio cualitativo, en el que 26 profesionales de la Atención Primaria a la Salud del municipio de São Paulo fueron entrevistados en 2015, y sus testimonios fueron sometidos a la técnica de análisis de discurso. El referencial teórico fue la determinación social del proceso salud-enfermedad. Se han resguardado los procedimientos éticos. Resultados: La TB se relaciona con las condiciones precarias de la vida, siendo que los incentivos como la canasta básica y la ayuda para el transporte son relevantes para la adhesión del paciente al tratamiento, así como para el vínculo entre el paciente y el equipo de salud. Consideraciones finales: Los incentivos fortalecen la adhesión al tratamiento de la TB. Sin embargo, las intervenciones en el marco de medidas públicas deben trascender la dimensión paliativa y orientarse para transformar la situación de la TB, lo que significa apoyar procesos que modifiquen las condiciones de vida.

ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT Objective: To analyze the compliance to antiretroviral therapy among HIV/AIDS patients. Method: 99 HIV-positive volunteers undergoing treatment responded to a semi-structured sociodemographic interview and to a questionnaire that assessed compliance to antiretroviral treatment. Results: In the sample analyzed, 52.5% of the volunteers presented good/adequate treatment compliance, while 33.3% presented low/insufficient compliance. There was no significant difference between men and women in the questionnaire score, nor between groups with different levels of education. Conclusion: The main items of the questionnaire that contributed to good/adequate compliance were: positive impact of treatment on health and quality of life, few side effects after initiation of therapy, and positive self-evaluation of participants regarding their compliance to antiretroviral therapy. The main barriers detected for compliance to antiretroviral therapy were the lack of knowledge about current medications and the lack of information on antiretroviral therapy drugs.


RESUMEN Objetivo: analizar la adhesión de pacientes con VIH/SIDA a la terapia antirretroviral. Método: 99 voluntarios portadores del virus VIH en tratamiento se sometieron a entrevista social y demográfica semiestructurada y al cuestionario de evaluación de la adhesión al tratamiento antirretroviral. Resultados: en la muestra analizada, el 52,5% de los voluntarios presentaba buena/adecuada adhesión al tratamiento, mientras que el 33,3%, baja/insuficiente. No había diferencia significativa entre hombres y mujeres en la puntuación del cuestionario, ni entre los diferentes grados de instrucción. Conclusión: Los puntos principales del cuestionario que contribuyeron a la adherencia buena/adecuada fueron: impacto positivo del tratamiento de la salud y la calidad de vida, pocos efectos colaterales al principio de la terapia y una autoevaluación positiva de los participantes relativa a la propia adhesión a la terapia antirretroviral. Las principales barreras detectadas para la baja/insuficiente adhesión a la terapia antirretroviral fueron el desconocimiento sobre los remedios en uso y la escasez de información sobre los medicamentos de la terapia antirretroviral.


RESUMO Objetivo: Analisar a adesão de pacientes com HIV/AIDS à terapia antirretroviral. Método: 99 voluntários portadores do vírus HIV sob tratamento foram submetidos à entrevista social e demográfica semiestruturada e ao questionário para avaliação da adesão ao tratamento antirretroviral. Resultados: Na amostra analisada, 52,5% dos voluntários apresentaram boa/adequada adesão ao tratamento, enquanto 33,3% apresentaram baixa/insuficiente. Não houve diferença significativa entre homens e mulheres na pontuação do questionário, nem entre os diferentes graus de instrução. Conclusão: Os principais itens do questionário que contribuíram para aderência boa/adequada foram o impacto positivo do tratamento na saúde e na qualidade de vida, os poucos efeitos colaterais com o início da terapia e a autoavaliação positiva dos participantes quanto à própria adesão à terapia antirretroviral. As principais barreiras detectadas para a baixa/insuficiente adesão à terapia antirretroviral foram o desconhecimento sobre as medicações em uso e o relato de escassez de informação sobre os medicamentos da terapia antirretroviral.

ABSTRACT

RESUMEN Introducción: La diabetes mellitus tipo 2 constituye, a nivel mundial, un problema de salud de creciente importancia y alto impacto sanitario, social y económico. Influyen en ella diversos factores: biológicos, psicológicos, sociales. Sin embargo, a pesar de su relevancia, las variables psicosociales han sido un tema menos explorado e investigado, en comparación con el gran desarrollo y avance en el campo biomédico. Objetivo: Realizar una revisión bibliográfica sobre la problemática de los factores psicosociales presentes en la diabetes mellitus tipo 2. Métodos: Se realizó una búsqueda electrónica, en las bases de datos PubMed, ScienceDirect, SciELO y Dialnet, abarcando el período 2008-2018. Se referencian 49 artículos, teniendo en cuenta el criterio de actualidad, relevancia y pertinencia. Conclusiones: Es importante ampliar la concepción tradicional de los factores de riesgo, a fin de considerarlos desde una perspectiva social. Se suele advertir que los pacientes presentan malestar emocional (depresión, ansiedad, angustia), pese a lo cual no hay suficiente diagnóstico ni tratamiento. La educación diabetológica no es frecuente y la adherencia terapéutica es baja. Es necesario implementar una atención integral y personalizada, donde la familia tenga un rol fundamental. La diabetes mellitus tipo 2 genera cierto grado de discriminación y estigmatización. Algunas problemáticas de los pacientes, como aquellas relativas a la sexualidad, constituyen temas poco visibilizados. Se observan diferencias por género en diversos aspectos de la enfermedad. En síntesis, la diabetes mellitus tipo 2 constituye, actualmente, un gran desafío que debe ser abordado de manera interdisciplinaria(AU)


ABSTRACT Introduction: Type 2 diabetes mellitus constitutes, worldwide, a health problem of increasing importance and great health, social and economic impact. Various factors influence it: biological, psychological, social. However, despite their relevance, psychosocial variables have been a less explored and researched topic, compared to the ample development and advancement in the biomedical field. Objective: To carry out a literature review on the problem of psychosocial factors in type 2 diabetes mellitus. Methods: An electronic search was carried out in PubMed, ScienceDirect, SciELO and Dialnet databases, covering the period 2008-2018. 49 articles are referenced, taking into account the criteria of relevance. Conclusions: It is important to extend the traditional conception of risk factors, in order to consider them from a social perspective. It is often noted that patients have emotional distress (depression, anxiety, anguish), despite which there is not enough diagnosis or treatment. Diabetes education is not frequent and therapeutic adherence is low. It is necessary to device a comprehensive and personalized attention, where the family has a fundamental role. Type 2 diabetes mellitus generates some degree of discrimination and stigmatization. Some patient issues, such as those related to sexuality, are poorly visible topics. Gender differences are observed in various aspects of the disease. In summary, type 2 diabetes mellitus is currently a great challenge that must be addressed in an interdisciplinary manner(AU)

ABSTRACT

OBJETIVO: Avaliar a adesão ao tratamento medicamentoso e possíveis fatores associados em idosos entrevistados durante consultas realizadas em Unidades Básicas de Saúde. MÉTODO: Trata-se de um estudo transversal, de base populacional, com amostra de 57 pacientes com idade entre 60 e 99 anos, residentes do município de Ponto dos Volantes, Minas Gerais, incluindo as zonas rural e urbana. A coleta de dados se deu durante o ato da consulta médica, através de um roteiro eletrônico estruturado. A associação entre os parâmetros e o nível de adesão ao tratamento foi avaliada através do teste do χ2, com intervalo de confiança de 95%. RESULTADOS: Dos idosos entrevistados, 45 (78,9%) responderam sobre adesão ao tratamento. Desses, 11 (24,4%) foram enquadrados no grupo de baixa aderência. Dentre os parâmetros avaliados, nenhum apresentou associação estatística relevante com a classificação da adesão medicamentosa. CONCLUSÃO: O presente estudo identificou que um em cada quatro pacientes apresentava baixa adesão aos tratamentos medicamentosos. Dentre as variáveis estudadas, notadamente sexo, idade, escolaridade, número de comorbidades, número de medicações em uso e renda, não se observou relação estatisticamente significante.

ABSTRACT

El trastorno por déficit de atención con hiperactividad (TDAH) es un trastorno del neurodesarrollo crónico, complejo y multifactorial asociado con elevadas tasas de concurrencia con otros trastornos psiquiátricos, junto con problemas y repercusiones en diferentes áreas del funcionamiento del individuo. El TDAH no es exclusivo de la edad infanto-juvenil, estimándose una persistencia del 40-60% en la edad adulta, de modo que entre 2.5 y 5% de adultos continúan presentando este trastorno. La adolescencia es una etapa en la que se producen grandes y continuos cambios y que se asocia con una menor adherencia al tratamiento, una mayor vulnerabilidad a la aparición de problemas académicos, más conductas de riesgo, el inicio en el consumo de sustancias y la aparición de otros trastornos comórbidos. Se produce también la transición a los servicios o unidades de adultos, siendo necesaria una mayor coordinación entre los servicios infanto-juveniles y de adultos para asegurar una continuidad de la intervención en una etapa d e la vida en la que el paciente es especialmente vulnerable. Como en el caso de los niños y adolescentes, el tratamiento recomendado en el adulto con TDAH es el abordaje multimodal y multidisciplinar, que combina la medicación con estrategias psicológicas o psicosociales, como la psicoeducación, la terapia cognitivo conductual o el coaching, adaptadas a las necesidades individuales de cada paciente. Los fármacos psicoestimulantes son considerados de primera elección en adultos por las guías clínicas.


Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a chronic, complex and multifactorial neurodevelopmental disorder associated with high rates of concurrent psychiatric disorders, along with problems and complications on different areas of individual functioning. ADHD is not exclusively a childhood disorder, 40-60% persisting into adulthood with an estimated prevalence of 2.5-5%. Adolescence is a stage where great and continuous changes occur, associated with a lower adherence to treatment, a greater vulnerability to the emergence of academic problems, more risk-behaviors, the onset of substance use and higher rates of other comorbid disorders. The transition to adult services or units also occurs at this stage, requiring greater coordination between child/adolescent and adult services to ensure continuity of care in a phase of life in which the patient is particularly vulnerable. As in the case of children and adolescents, the recommended treatment for adults with ADHD is the multimodal and multidisciplinary approach, that combines medication with psychological or psychosocial strategies, such as psycho-education, cognitive behavioral therapy or coaching, adapted to the individual needs of each patient. Clinical guidelines recommend psycho-stimulant drugs as first-line treatments for adult patients with ADHD.
