Àgô Sankofa: an overview of the progression of sickle cell disease in Brazil in the past two decades. / Àgô Sankofa: um olhar sobre a trajetória da doença falciforme no Brasil nos últimos 20 anos.

Sickle cell disease (SCD) is an emblematic case of historical health neglect in Brazil and reflects how institutional racism produces health inequalities. This article engaged in a historical journey of this disease, showing the delayed implementation of health policies for people with sickle cell disease, often concealed in Public Power's (in)actions and omissions. The lack of commitment to implement the recommendations of the Brazilian Ministry of Health, such as neonatal screening, and the difficulty in incorporating technologies for health care result from this modus operandi. The advances and setbacks in programmatic actions and the constant pressure on several governmental entities have characterized the reported saga in the last twenty years. The present text discusses the policies for people with SCD, appropriating the Sankofa symbol, meaning that building the present is only possible by remembering past mistakes. Thus, we recognize this trajectory and this historical moment in which there is a concrete possibility of moving forward and achieving the longed-for comprehensive care for people with SCD. There is an invitation to glance at a new perspective, one in which hope is the trigger for the movements needed to guarantee the rights of people with SCD.

A doença falciforme (DF) é um caso emblemático de negligência histórica em saúde no Brasil e reflete como o racismo institucional produz iniquidades em saúde. Este artigo fez um percurso histórico até os dias atuais e mostra atraso na implementação de políticas de saúde voltadas para as pessoas com DF, tantas vezes encoberto em (in)ações e omissões do poder público. O descompromisso para a efetivação das recomendações do Ministério da Saúde, a exemplo da triagem neonatal, e a dificuldade de incorporar as tecnologias para a assistência à saúde resultam desse modus nada operandi. Os avanços e retrocessos nas ações programáticas, bem como a pressão constante sobre os diversos entes governamentais, caracterizaram a saga dos últimos 20 anos. O texto disserta sobre as políticas voltadas para as pessoas com DF, apropriando-se da simbologia Sankofa, já que só é possível construir o presente pelo aprendizado dos erros do passado. Assim, reconhecemos essa trajetória e esse momento histórico em que há possibilidade concreta de avançar e concretizar o tão almejado cuidado integral para pessoas com DF. Concluiu-se que há um convite para um novo olhar, em que esperançar seja o disparador das movimentações necessárias para a garantia do direito para as pessoas com DF.

[Sleep Strategies for Shift Work Nurses].

To meet the demands of a 24/7 society, shift work is necessary. Shift work is outside the traditional regular 9-to-5 work schedule, is characterized by irregular working hours, and exists in various industries. However, this abnormal working time can disrupt the natural day and night rhythm, and if poorly adjusted, it can lead to shift work sleep disorder (SWSD). SWSD is associated with multiple health risks, including impaired cognitive function, increased risk of accidents, and various metabolic and cardiovascular diseases. The frontline nurses typically work shifts to provide comprehensive patient care. This article aims to discuss sleep physiology, apply existing literature to discuss the impact on nurses resulting from shift work, and further offer strategies to regulate sleep to promote physical and mental health. These strategies range from organizational interventions (e.g., optimizing shift schedules) to individual interventions (e.g., lifestyle changes) and the use of chronobiological techniques (e.g., light therapy) to promote the adjustment of circadian rhythms, etc.

Clinical evaluation of targeted sedation nursing combined with comprehensive nursing in children with severe pneumonia.

The severity of severe pneumonia in children depends on the degree of local inflammation, spread of lung inflammation and systemic inflammatory response. Appropriate care can effectively reduce the mortality of children with severe pneumonia. This study was designed to explore the nursing effect of targeted sedation nursing and comprehensive nursing intervention in children with severe pneumonia. Eighty children with severe pneumonia who complained of the main complaint were selected, and they were evenly distributed to receive comprehensive care (control group) and targeted sedation care and comprehensive care (observation group). In each group, different degrees of sedation, pain scores, and changes in adverse reactions were evaluated. Before nursing, the sedation and pain scores of the 2 groups of children were not statistically significant; after nursing, the sedation and pain scores of the 2 groups of children improved with time, and the sedation effect of the observation group was significantly lower than that of the control. In the group, the pain score was lower than that of the control group, indicating improvement. The SAS and SDS of the observation group were lower than those of the control group, while the social support score was significantly higher than that of the control group. The difference was statistically significant (P < .05). The accidental extubation, delirium, respiratory depression, and laryngospasm of the 2 groups of children were significantly improved, and the observation group was significantly less than the control group. This difference was statistically significant (P < .05). Targeted sedation nursing and comprehensive nursing intervention can effectively reduce the incidence of adverse reactions in children with severe pneumonia, reduce the pain and discomfort of children with severe pneumonia, and significantly improve the degree of sedation, which has certain reference value for the care of children with severe pneumonia.

Characteristics and counseling strategies for physical activity used by primary health care professionals. / Características e estratégias de aconselhamento para atividade física utilizadas por profissionais da atenção primária à saúde.

This study aim to describe the characteristics and strategies of counseling for physical activity used by Primary Health Care (PHC) professionals. A survey was carried out with 587 (85.4% women) health professionals who work in PHC in Florianopolis, in the state of Santa Catarina, southern Brazil. Counseling carried out in the last 12 months was considered. Operational aspects related to counseling practices and strategies used for counseling were evaluated. The frequency of physical activity guidance was 86.2% (95%CI = 83.2-88.8%). Counseling was characterized as a brief practice, carried out in individual consultations, aimed at adults and the older adults and people with morbidities. The most used strategy was to guide users to participate in physical activity groups at the Health Center (89.5%) and in relation to the 5As method, giving some "advice" was the most used strategy (99.0%) and the least used. used was to follow strategies (22.6%). Counseling for physical activity has been based on a brief practice, carried out in individual consultations and focused on people with morbidities and on adults and the elderly. The strategies used do not seem to cover the full care of the advised users.

O estudo buscou descrever as características e estratégias de aconselhamento para atividade física utilizadas por profissionais da atenção primária à saúde (APS). Foi realizada uma pesquisa com 587 profissionais de saúde (85,4% mulheres) que atuam na APS de Florianópolis, no estado de Santa Catarina, Sul do Brasil. Foram considerados os aconselhamentos efetuados nos últimos 12 meses, avaliando-se aspectos operacionais relacionados às práticas e estratégias utilizadas. A frequência de orientação de atividade física foi de 86,2% (IC95% = 83,2-88,8%). O aconselhamento se caracterizou como uma prática breve, realizada em consultas individuais, voltadas para adultos e idosos e pessoas com morbidades. A estratégia mais utilizada foi orientar usuários a participarem de grupos de atividade física no Centro de Saúde (89,5%), e em relação ao método 5As, dar algum "conselho" foi a estratégia mais utilizada (99,0%), e a menos utilizada foi seguir estratégias (22,6%). Aconselhamento para atividade física tem sido baseado em uma prática breve, realizada em consultas individuais e focada em pessoas com morbidades e em adultos e idosos. As estratégias utilizadas parecem não abranger o cuidado integral dos usuários aconselhados.

Healthcare provider perspectives on integrating a comprehensive spine care model in an academic health system: a cross-sectional survey.

BACKGROUND: Healthcare systems (HCS) are challenged in adopting and sustaining comprehensive approaches to spine care that require coordination and collaboration among multiple service units. The integration of clinicians who provide first line, evidence-based, non-pharmacological therapies further complicates adoption of these care pathways. This cross-sectional study explored clinician perceptions about the integration of guideline-concordant care and optimal spine care workforce requirements within an academic HCS. METHODS: Spine care clinicians from Duke University Health System (DUHS) completed a 26-item online survey via Qualtrics on barriers and facilitators to delivering guideline concordant care for low back pain patients. Data analysis included descriptive statistics and qualitative content analysis. RESULTS: A total of 27 clinicians (57% response) responded to one or more items on the questionnaire, with 23 completing the majority of questions. Respondents reported that guidelines were implementable within DUHS, but no spine care guideline was used consistently across provider types. Guideline access and integration with electronic records were barriers to use. Respondents (81%) agreed most patients would benefit from non-pharmacological therapies such as physical therapy or chiropractic before receiving specialty referrals. Providers perceived spine patients expected diagnostic imaging (81%) and medication (70%) over non-pharmacological therapies. Providers agreed that receiving imaging (63%) and opioids (59%) benchmarks could be helpful but might not change their ordering practice, even if nudged by best practice advisories. Participants felt that an optimal spine care workforce would require more chiropractors and primary care providers and fewer neurosurgeons and orthopedists. In qualitative responses, respondents emphasized the following barriers to guideline-concordant care implementation: patient expectations, provider confidence with referral pathways, timely access, and the appropriate role of spine surgery. CONCLUSIONS: Spine care clinicians had positive support for current tenets of guideline-concordant spine care for low back pain patients. However, significant barriers to implementation were identified, including mixed opinions about integration of non-pharmacological therapies, referral pathways, and best practices for imaging and opioid use.

Lineamientos para la atención integral de niñas y niños menores de diez años con desnutrición severa / Guidelines for the comprehensive care of children under ten years of age with severe malnutrition

Actualmente, 1 de cada 6 niños tiene desnutrición crónica, condición que genera consecuencias preocupantes en el neurodesarrollo y que limitan el progreso del país. En la actualidad la información estadística se enfoca en los primeros 5 años de vida, pero es fundamental realizar intervenciones oportunas en las niñas y niños menores de diez años, ya que en esta etapa se establecen las bases para las funciones cerebrales superiores como la memoria, el lenguaje, el razonamiento lógico, la percepción espacial, la discriminación visual y auditiva. El Sistema Nacional Integrado de Salud, suma esfuerzos para orientar al clínico sobre el abordaje integral de la desnutrición severa, basados en evidencia científica actualizada, siendo vital brindar cuidados cariñosos, intervención oportuna del personal de salud, la familia y comunidad, para evitar o disminuir secuelas o complicaciones

Currently, 1 in 6 children suffer from chronic malnutrition, a condition that has worrying consequences for neurodevelopment and limits the country's progress. Currently the statistical information is focused on the first 5 years of life, but it is essential to make timely interventions in girls and boys under the age of ten, since at this stage the foundations are established for higher brain functions such as memory, language, logical reasoning, spatial perception, visual and auditory discrimination. The National Integrated Health System is working to guide clinicians on the comprehensive approach to severe malnutrition, based on up-to-date scientific evidence, and it is vital to provide loving care and timely intervention by health personnel, family and community, to prevent or reduce sequelae or complications

Radiation-Induced Carotid Artery Stenosis: What Nurses Need to Know.

BACKGROUND: Radiation therapy (RT) to the neck is used to treat malignancies such as cancers of the head and neck and lymphomas. Although RT improves survival rates and health outcomes in patients with cancer, it can contribute to late effects, including radiation-induced carotid artery stenosis (RI-CAS). Comprehensive cancer survivorship care includes detection, surveillance, and management of RI-CAS. OBJECTIVES: This article provides an overview of the incidence, risk factors, detection, surveillance, and management of RI-CAS in cancer survivors. METHODS: A literature search was conducted using PubMed®, Embase®, and Web of Science for articles published from January 2008 through June 2022. Search terms included carotid stenosis, radiation therapy, and cancer survivors. This updated review includes content from older references, which serve as a literature-based foundation for the clinical care of cancer survivors at risk for or diagnosed with RI-CAS. FINDINGS: CAS is a long-term sequela of RT to the neck and can lead to serious complications. As part of a cancer survivorship plan of care, nurses monitor patients for RI-CAS so that survival rates and patients' quality of life improve.

Psychosocial Care for Pediatric Cancer. Module 05: Strengthening Psychosocial Competencies and the Care Provided by the Multidisciplinary Team

Advances in the treatment of pediatric cancer have made it possible to expand initiatives beyond cure and cover aspects such as early detection, continuity of treatment and reduction in toxicity. All this has paved the way for a more comprehensive vision of patient care, which means better chances of healing and a fuller life - objectives of the World Initiative against Childhood Cancer. Within this comprehensive care, psychosocial care includes the social, psychological, spiritual and functional dimensions of the disease process of patients. This series includes guidelines and standards based on evidence that guarantee the quality of said care. The standards are the result of discussion and review by different professionals from Latin America and the Caribbean. Module 5 focuses on strengthening psychosocial skills and caring for the multidisciplinary team. The competencies that professionals must have to provide comprehensive care are collected, as well as the necessary conditions to optimize interdisciplinary work and for the care and self-care of the teams.

Laboratory Selection in Germline Genetic Testing: Laboratory Science Matters.

There are multiple laboratories that offer germline genetic testing, and it can be difficult to discern which one to use for testing. Some laboratories have more comprehensive analysis techniques and capability, which increases the accuracy of testing. The ordering provider has a responsibility to select the appropriate laboratory with technologic capability for the needed testing, inform the laboratory of prior testing results in the patient and family so known familial variants have targeted testing, and use appropriate terminology and nomenclature when communicating information to other healthcare professionals, patients, and families. This report presents a case illustrating the potential errors that can occur when a provider selects a laboratory that lacks the capacity to detect certain pathogenic variants, such as large deletions and duplications. False-negative germline testing results lead to missed opportunities in prevention and early detection for not only the patient but often multiple family members, which may lead to psychosocial distress and late-detected cancers. This case highlights the complexities of genetic care and why management by a genetics professional can facilitate more fiscally responsible care, appropriate genetic testing, and comprehensive care for all family members at risk.

Real-World Implementation of Best-Evidence Cancer Distress Management: Truly Comprehensive Cancer Care.

BACKGROUND: Cancer distress management is an evidence-based component of comprehensive cancer care. Group-delivered cognitive behavioral therapy for cancer distress (CBT-C) is the first distress treatment associated with replicated survival advantages in randomized clinical trials. Despite research supporting patient satisfaction, improved outcomes, and reduced costs, CBT-C has not been tested sufficiently within billable clinical settings, profoundly reducing patient access to best-evidence care. This study aimed to adapt and implement manualized CBT-C as a billable clinical service. PATIENTS AND METHODS: A stakeholder-engaged, mixed-methods, hybrid implementation study design was used, and the study was conducted in 3 phases: (1) stakeholder engagement and adaptation of CBT-C delivery, (2) patient and therapist user testing and adaptation of CBT-C content, and (3) implementation of practice-adapted CBT-C as a billable clinical service focused on evaluation of reach, acceptability, and feasibility across stakeholder perspectives. RESULTS: A total of 40 individuals and 7 interdisciplinary group stakeholders collectively identified 7 primary barriers (eg, number of sessions, workflow concerns, patient geographic distance from center) and 9 facilitators (eg, favorable financial model, emergence of oncology champions). CBT-C adaptations made before implementation included expanding eligibility criteria beyond breast cancer, reducing number of sessions to 5 (10 total hours), eliminating and adding content, and revising language and images. During implementation, 252 patients were eligible; 100 (40%) enrolled in CBT-C (99% covered by insurance). The primary reason for declining enrollment was geographic distance. Of enrollees, 60 (60%) consented to research participation (75% women; 92% white). All research participants completed at least 60% of content (6 of 10 hours), with 98% reporting they would recommend CBT-C to family and friends. CONCLUSIONS: CBT-C implementation as a billable clinical service was acceptable and feasible across cancer care stakeholder measures. Future research is needed to replicate acceptability and feasibility results in more diverse patient groups, test effectiveness in clinical settings, and reduce barriers to access via remote delivery platforms.

Diagnóstico situacional das práticas integrativas e complementares em saúde na Bahia: um estudo transversal / Situational diagnosis of integrative and complementary health practices in Bahia: a cross-sectional study / Diagnóstico situacional de las prácticas integrativas y complementarias en salud en Bahía: un estudio transversal

Práticas Integrativas e Complementares em Saúde (PICS) são racionalidades médicas e recurso terapêuticos de cuidado que buscam a promoção, a prevenção, a recuperação e o tratamento da saúde compreendendo o indivíduo em toda a sua integralidade. Essas práticas foram institucionalizadas no Brasil em 2006, através da Política Nacional de Práticas Integrativas e Complementares (PNPIC), e na Bahia em 2019, com a Política Estadual de Práticas Integrativas e Complementares em Saúde (PEPIC). O objetivo deste estudo foi descrever a situação das PICS no estado, bem como o processo de implantação/implementação da PEPIC. Trata-se de um estudo descritivo de corte transversal, com dados primários obtidos por meio da aplicação de formulário eletrônico. As variáveis de interesse foram: oferta das PICS; registro nos sistemas de informação; dados sobre a gestão municipal; e formação e capacitação profissional. Dos 417 municípios do estado, 109 (26,1%) responderam à pesquisa e, destes, apenas 38 (34,9%) relataram ofertar PICS. Os municípios que ofertam PICS apresentaram dúvidas sobre: financiamento (38); avaliação e monitoramento (20); planejamento e implantação (19); e implementação (18). Os demais relataram não ofertar PICS e apresentaram como motivos para isso: não dispor de profissionais com formação adequada (38); e falta de recurso financeiro (21). Os dados obtidos demonstraram baixa inserção das PICS nos serviços de saúde, reforçando que as ações de monitoramento são importantes ferramentas para compreender a realidade e nortear as ações da gestão em saúde. Sugere-se que, considerando as limitações apresentadas neste estudo, sejam realizadas novas atividades de monitoramento para avaliação e apoio efetivo às PICS na Bahia.

The Integrative and Complementary Health Practices (PICS) are medical rationales and therapeutic care resources that seek the promotion, prevention, recovery, and treatment of health, understanding the individual in all its integrality. These practices were institutionalized in Brazil in 2006, by the National Policy on Integrative and Complementary Practices (PNPIC), and in Bahia in 2019, with the State Policy on Integrative and Complementary Practices (PEPIC). The aim of this study was to describe the situation of the PICS in the state, as well as the implementation process of the PEPIC. This is a descriptive cross-sectional study, with primary data obtained from applying an electronic form. The variables of interest were: supply of PICS; registration in information systems; data on municipal management; and training and professional qualification. Of the 417 municipalities in the state, 109 (26.1%) responded to the survey and, of these, only 38 (34.9%) reported offering PICS. The municipalities that offer PICS had doubts about: financing (38); evaluation and monitoring (20); planning and implantation (19); and implementation (18). The others reported not offering PICS and indicated as reasons for this: the lack of adequately trained professionals (38); and lack of financial resources (21). The data obtained showed a low insertion of PICS in health services, reinforcing that monitoring actions are important tools to understand reality and guide health management actions. It is suggested that, considering the limitations presented in this study, new monitoring activities be carried out, for the evaluation and effective support of PICS in Bahia.

Las Prácticas Integrativas y Complementarias de Salud (PICS) son fundamentos médicos y recursos de atención terapéutica que buscan la promoción, prevención, recuperación y tratamiento de la salud, teniendo en cuenta la integralidad del individuo. Estas prácticas se institucionalizaron en Brasil en 2006 mediante la Política Nacional de Prácticas Integrativas y Complementarias (PNPIC), y en Bahía (Brasil) en 2019 con la Política Estadual de Prácticas Integrativas y Complementarias (PEPIC). El objetivo de este estudio fue describir la situación de las PICS en el estado, así como el proceso de implementación de la PEPIC. Se trata de un estudio descriptivo transversal, con datos primarios obtenidos a partir de la aplicación de un formulario electrónico. Las variables de interés fueron: suministro de PICS; registro en sistemas de información; datos sobre la gestión municipal; formación y cualificación profesional. De los 417 municipios del estado, 109 (26,1%) respondieron a la encuesta y de estos, sólo 38 (34,9%) informaron ofrecer PICS. Los municipios que ofrecen PICS tenían dudas sobre: financiamiento (38); evaluación y seguimiento (20); planificación e implementación (19); e implementación (18). Los demás informaron no ofrecer PICS y señalaron como razones la falta de profesionales capacitados (38) y la falta de recursos financieros (21). Los datos obtenidos mostraron una baja inserción de las PICS en los servicios de salud, lo que refuerza que las acciones de seguimiento son una herramienta importante para comprender la realidad y orientar las acciones de gestión en salud. Se sugiere que, considerando las limitaciones presentadas en este estudio, se realicen nuevas actividades de monitoreo para la evaluación y apoyo efectivo de las PICS en Bahía.

Saúde mental de idosos: uma análise da série Unidade Básica (2016) / Mental health of older adults: an analysis of the series Unidade Básica(2016) / Salud mental del las personas mayores: un análisis de la serie Unidade Básica (2016)

Este artigo tem o objetivo de analisar dois episódios da primeira temporada da Unidade Básica (2016), a fim de identificar sentidos sobre a saúde mental de idosos. Esta série televisiva foi divulgada pela Universal Channel e escrita por Helena Petta, Newton Cannito e Ana Petta. Apenas dois episódios compõem o corpus desta pesquisa; os outros foram desconsiderados por não abordarem o tema. O primeiro trata de Vilma, uma idosa que abandonou o autocuidado por causa da depressão, e o quarto fala sobre Eraldo, um idoso que ficou depressivo em razão de problemas financeiros, amorosos e alcoólicos. A análise de narrativas será utilizada como metodologia, possibilitando a identificação e a interpretação crítica dos sentidos sobre idosos e saúde mental. De forma geral, os resultados revelaram que os episódios não seguem uma visão holística, desconsiderando, portanto, a necessidade de cuidar da saúde física e mental das pessoas idosas para lhes proporcionar bem-estar.

This article aims to analyze two episodes of the first season of Unidade Básica (2016) in order to identify meanings about the mental health of older adults. This series was broadcast by Universal Channel and written by Helena Petta, Newton Cannito and Ana Petta. Only two episodes compose the corpus of this research; the others were disregarded because they do not deal with the theme. The first episode narrated the story of Vilma, an older woman who was depressed and then abandoned self-care. The fourth episode was about Eraldo, an older man who became depressed due to his financial, love and alcoholic problems. The narrative analysis was used as a methodology, enabling the identification and critical interpretation of meanings about older people and mental health. In general, the results reveal that the episodes do not follow a holistic view, disregarding the need to take care of physical and mental health to provide the well-being of them.

Este artículo tiene como objetivo analizar dos episodios de la primera temporada de Unidade Básica(2016) con el fin de identificar significados sobre la salud mental de los adultos mayores. Esta serie fue transmitida por Universal Channel y escrita por Helena Petta, Newton Cannito y Ana Petta. Sólo dos episodios constituyen el corpus de esta investigación; los demás fueron descartados por no retratar el tema. El primer episodio narra la historia de Vilma, una mujer la tercera edad que abandonó el autocuidado a causa de su estado de depresión. El cuarto episodio fue sobre Eraldo, un hombre también de la tercera edad, que se deprimió por problemas económicos, amorosos y alcohólicos. Se utilizó como metodología el análisis narrativo, que permitió la identificación e interpretación crítica de significados sobre las personas mayores y la salud mental. En general, los resultados revelan que los dos episodios no siguen una visión holística, desconociendo la necesidad de cuidar de la salud física y mental para proporcionar bienestar a las personas mayores.

Construction of an Ophthalmological Calendar for the Therapeutic Follow-Up of Glaucoma in the Elderly.

Health teams in primary care play a key role in the eye health of users as they understand that early identification of any visual change can result in satisfactory outcomes and better prognoses, preventing damage that is often irreversible to health. Building an ophthalmological calendar for the therapeutic follow-up of glaucoma in the elderly, this is a methodological study, as the process of constructing the calendar's content followed the Raymundo theoretical framework. The calendar was built in the following steps: bibliographic survey, content development, transformation of the language of scientific information into easy-to-understand expressions, creation and production of illustrations of the first draft, evaluation of the first draft made by the examining board, diagramming and presentation of the product. The construction of the calendar covers a specific theme for the elderly with glaucoma, which emphasizes the need to invest more in the inclusion of new technologies that will provide greater effectiveness and adherence of the user and the health team for the management of comprehensive care. The implementation of the produced calendar will allow for a better understanding and bond between the team professionals and the user and, consequently, a better monitoring of the therapeutic process of the patient involved.
