Donation and Equitable Access to Organ, Tissue, and Cell Transplants: A Brazilian Perspective on the Strategy and Plan of Action 2019-2030.

OBJECTIVE: To position the Brazilian Transplant System within the context of the 4 Strategic Lines of Action proposed by the Pan-American Health Organization. METHOD: A specialist analysis was conducted through comparative analyses of the 4 Strategic Lines of Action, objectives, and indicators outlined in the Action Plan, along with the donation and transplantation system in accordance with Brazilian transplantation law. Subsequent to an in-depth review of the document issued by the health authority, a series of meetings involving 8 specialists in organ donation and transplantation were conducted. During these meetings, discussions were carried out with the objective of numerically interpreting each strategy presented in the document, and recommendations constructed. RESULTS: Four strategies were evaluated and only 2 of them the third (81,3%) and the fourth (90%) do not achieve the indicators to complete the objective related to equitable access to organ, tissue, and cell transplants in Brazil. CONCLUSION: The recommendations developed carry importance, as they are innovative and contribute to the establishment of priorities when shaping public policies. The report not only highlights indicators that were not satisfactorily met but also provides insights into the recommendations formulated to improve those indicators that have already been achieved and to work toward achieving those that have not yet been realized. Additionally, these recommendations can justify actions and establish priorities for research efforts in the field.

Time Elapsed Between Cells, Tissues, and Organs Donation and Transplantation and Adverse Events Detection.

BACKGROUND: This study was designed to discuss the time elapsed between cell, tissue, and organ donation and transplantation and detection of adverse events notified in São Paulo, Brazil. METHODS: This is a descriptive study with a quantitative approach. Data were provided by the Transplant Center of the state of São Paulo from the "Individual notification form of adverse reactions in Biovigilance" between 2016 and 2019. Analysis was performed using descriptive statistics. RESULTS: Fifty-two notifications were analyzed, and 3 categories were formed: (1) adverse events detected on the same day of the transplant, 8; (2) adverse events detected between 1 week and 1.5 years after transplant, 40; and (3) adverse events detected 2 years after transplant, 4. CONCLUSION: The discussion on the topic is beginning; however, it is important. Clinical management of transplant recipients and comprehending what is considered an adverse event and the natural course of a patient's life can impact clinical decision-making, public policies, and patient safety research. This study highlights the need to investigate related factors to adverse events, especially the time between the transplant procedure and adverse event detection, to establish clinical guidelines.

Interventions to Improve the Quality in the Organ and Tissue Donation Process.

BACKGROUND: Map Interventions is capable of supporting the multidisciplinary team that works in organ and tissue donation to disseminate quality in this process. METHODS: A scoping review study that was conducted through the steps proposed by the Joanna Briggs Institute. RESULTS: Fifty-six studies made up the sample. 2018 (no. 07, 12.5%) had the highest number of publications. The country that published the most was the United States (no. 16, 28.56%). The database with the most publications was the Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature - CINAHL (no. 15, 26.78%).

All were published in 2020, originating mainly on China, with predominance of original articles. The most frequent recommendations relate to testing to detect SARS-CoV-2 infection for deceased donors (52.6%) and clinical evaluation of potential donors and possible donors (31.6%). FINAL CONSIDERATIONS: it is believed that the recommendations evidenced will support health professionals in the process of donation and organ transplantations to determine interventions for decision-making during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Organ donation procedures: an epidemiological study.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the impact of organ and tissue donation processes on family members of deceased donors and the probability that they would be an organ or tissue donor in the future. METHODS: Cross-sectional survey of 69 families of deceased donors of the organ procurement organizations of the Federal University of São Paulo. RESULTS: Donors were predominantly men (57% vs 43%) with a median age of 35.9 years. The primary causes of death were classified as natural (65%), traumatic injury (33%), and other (1%). Of the family members surveyed, 40% had an elementary school education and 59% were unemployed. Family members expressed an understanding of the brain death diagnosis (67%). Among them, 74% had no doubt about brain death and had time to ask questions. The diagnosis was provided by the doctor responsible for the patient (89%). Family members also used funeral aid benefit (63%), perceived organ donation positively (97%), and indicated that they would donate again (79%). A significant relationship was found between families that took advantage of the funeral aid benefit and families that would donate again (79% vs 22%, P = .002). CONCLUSION: The intent to donate organs for transplantation may be based more on moral and cultural factors that go beyond the family members' knowledge about the donation process per se.

Medication non-adherence in heart transplant patients. / Não adesão medicamentosa nos pacientes transplantados cardíacos.

OBJECTIVE: To measure medication non-adherence in patients after heart transplantation using the Basel Assessment of Adherence to Immunosuppressive Medications Scale (BAASIS) and the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS); to compare the results of biopsies performed with the prevalent comorbidities and survival. METHOD: Quantitative historical cohort. The population consisted of patients undergoing transplantation between 2009 and 2016. RESULTS: Participation of 60 patients. The measurement using the BAASIS was 46.7% of non-adherence and 53.3% of patient adherence. The group with greater difficulty in non-adherence reported up to 2 hours delay of medication intake in relation to the prescribed time (25%), although there was no interruption in medications. The initial diagnosis was Chagas disease (33.3%). The studied comorbidities were systemic arterial hypertension (SAH), diabetes mellitus (DM), dyslipidemia (DLP) and chronic renal failure (CRF). CONCLUSION: Assessment using the BAASIS showed medication non-adherence in 46.7% of heart transplant patients. The VAS according to patients' self-report and nurse's assessment showed high values (93.3% vs 83.3%). The BAASIS tends to address the difficulties reported by patients, when there is a change in doses, delays or anticipations of time and dose.

Ocular tissue distribution in the State of São Paulo: analysis on corneal discarding reasons. / Distribuição do tecido ocular no Estado de São Paulo: análise por razões de descarte de córneas.

OBJECTIVE: to identify the reasons for refusal of corneas. METHOD: this was a cross-sectional, retrospective, descriptive and correlational study composed of 5,560 optical corneas. The information was taken from the notification, organ procurement and distribution centers database as well as donor records. Descriptive statistics were used for the analysis of categorical variables and specific tests with a significance level of 5% for assessing the associations between variables. This study met the ethical aspects of scientific research. RESULTS: 60% of the donors were male and 40% died by circulatory problems. The main reason for refusal as informed by transplant teams is the donor's age and the endothelial cell count. For each year added to the donor's age, there is a 1% decrease in the chance that this cornea will be used for transplantation, and the increase of 100 cells per mm2 increases the chances that this cornea will be used by 9%. CONCLUSION: the main cause of refusal in the acceptance of corneal tissue is related to the age and the endothelial cell count.

Quality of life, religiosity, and anxiety and depressive symptoms in liver transplantation candidates.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate quality of life, religiosity and anxiety and depressive symptoms in liver transplant candidates. METHOD: An epidemiological and cross-sectional study carried out with liver transplant candidates attended at the outpatient clinic of a University Hospital from 2014 to 2016. RESULTS: Fifty (50) patients with a mean age of 52.5 years old participated in the study, predominantly male (58.0%), having access to primary education (48.0%), Model for End-Stage Liver Disease between 10-19 and having viral hepatitis as the main etiology. They presented an average quality of life score (4.1), high intrinsic religiosity index (5.6) and the presence of anxiety (52.0%) and depressive symptoms (48.0%). It was possible to observe an association between religiosity and quality of life in the worry domain, with higher non-organizational religiosity leading to higher quality of life; anxiety and depressive symptoms were not associated with quality of life and religiosity. However, patients with higher levels of education were more likely to present depressive symptoms. CONCLUSION: The analysis of quality of life and religiosity was significant, reinforcing the need for the care team to consider religiosity as a coping strategy for the disease.

Abstract Objective To synthesize and critically evaluate the scientific evidence from observational studies on biosurveillance systems and adverse event reporting in organ donation and transplantation. Methods Systematic review of observational studies following the recommendations of the Methodological Guidelines (REBRATS) and Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA). Primary studies and case reports on biosurveillance and/or adverse events in organ donation and/or transplantation, without restriction of publication date or language were included. Six electronic databases were used in the scientific literature search: Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System Online (MEDLINE) (via PubMed), Excerpta Medica Database (Embase), Web of Science, LILACS, Scopus and the electronic library Scielo. A data search was also performed in the following secondary databases: Notify - World Health Organization (WHO), Pan American Health Organization (PAHO) and Google Scholar. The MINORS tool was used to assess the quality of studies. Results 551 studies were identified, and after the evaluation steps, eight of them were included in the systematic review. These were divided into results, processes and strategies for preventing adverse events. Regarding the classification of the quality of studies, two obtained a good classification. Conclusion The results indicate the occurrence of adverse events at some stage of the organ and tissue donation and transplantation process, such as: adverse drug-related reactions; neurotoxicity; longer length of hospital stay; surgical reinterventions; falls; coma; death; graft failure or loss. The fact that adverse events are possibly still underreported is noteworthy.

Factors associated with hospital mortality in renal transplant patients admitted to the intensive care unit with acute respiratory failure.

INTRODUCTION: The lungs are often involved in a variety of complications after kidney transplantation. Acute respiratory failure (ARF) is one of the most serious manifestations of pulmonary involvement. OBJECTIVE: To describe the main causes of ARF in kidney transplant patients who require intensive care and identify the factors associated with mortality. METHODS: This retrospective study evaluated adult patients with ARF admitted to the intensive care unit of a center with high volume of transplants from August 2013 to August 2015. Demographic, clinical, and transplant characteristics were analyzed. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to identify factors associated with hospital mortality. RESULTS: 183 patients were included with age of 55.32 ± 13.56 years. 126 (68.8%) were deceased-donor transplant, and 37 (20.2%) patients had previous history of rejection. The ICU admission SAPS3 and SOFA score were 54.39 ± 10.32 and 4.81 ± 2.32, respectively. The main cause of hospitalization was community-acquired pneumonia (18.6%), followed by acute pulmonary edema (15.3%). Opportunistic infections were common: PCP (9.3%), tuberculosis (2.7%), and cytomegalovirus (2.2%). Factors associated with mortality were requirement for vasopressor (OD 8.13, CI 2.83 to 23.35, p < 0.001), invasive mechanical ventilation (OD 3.87, CI: 1.29 to 11.66, p = 0.016), and SAPS3 (OD 1.04, CI 1.0 to 1.08, p = 0.045). CONCLUSION: Bacterial pneumonia is the leading cause of ARF requiring intensive care, followed by acute pulmonary edema. Requirement for vasopressor, invasive mechanical ventilation and SAP3 were associated with hospital mortality.

Poder interprofissional em cuidados intensivos: reflexão filosófica a partir de perspectivas foucaultianas e críticas / Poder interprofesional en cuidados intensivos: reflexión filosófica a partir de perspectivas foucaultianas y críticas / Interprofessional Power in Acute Care: Philosophical Reflection using Foucauldian and Critical Perspectives

Resumo Objetivo Discutir as relações de poder entre profissionais de saúde em ambientes de cuidado intensivo e sua interferência no processo de construção do conhecimento. Métodos Neste artigo filosófico, exploramos a influência das relações de poder na construção do conhecimento, a partir das perspectivas foucaultiana e crítica de Gramsci e Freire em relação às práticas de enfermagem e cuidados de saúde. Resultados Há quatro fontes de poder organizacional (tomada de decisão, critério, controle de recursos e controle de conhecimento/rede) que atuam em diferentes níveis das organizações de saúde. As unidades de terapia intensiva são um importante segmento do ambiente de saúde, e a complexidade no cotidiano dos profissionais desse setor pode dificultar as relações de poder no processo de construção do conhecimento. Por exemplo, quando profissionais externos à equipe da UTI, que detêm conhecimentos específicos, precisam ser contatados para auxiliar em casos, como durante o processo de doação e transplante de órgãos. Nesta situação, é necessário desconstruir o poder competitivo para construir o poder colaborativo. Conclusão Usando as perspectivas de Freire e Gramsci, argumentamos que a falta de conhecimento contribui para o poder competitivo, que pode ser superado se os indivíduos envolvidos participarem no processo de aprendizagem em direção ao poder colaborativo. Portanto, as estratégias ou ações para lidar com os desequilíbrios de poder interprofissional podem contribuir para a transformação e mudança mútua.

En esta situación se hace necesario deconstruir el poder competitivo para construir el poder colaborativo. Conclusión Usando las perspectivas de Freire y de Gramsci, argumentamos que la falta de conocimiento contribuye para el poder competitivo, que se puede superar si los individuos involucrados participan en el proceso de aprendizaje en dirección al poder colaborativo. Por lo tanto, las estrategias o las acciones para hacer frente a los desequilibrios de poder interprofesional pueden contribuir con la transformación y el cambio mutuo.

Abstract Objective To discuss the power relations among health care professionals in acute care settings and its interference in the process of knowledge building. Methods In this philosophical paper, we explored the influence of power relations on knowledge building using a Foucauldian and critical perspective of Gramsci and Freire related to nursing and health care practices. Results There are four sources of organizational power (decision-making, discretion, control of resources, and control of knowledge/network) that act at different levels of healthcare organizations. Intensive care units are an important segment of healthcare setting, and the complexity involved in the daily activities of professionals in this sector can lead to difficult power relations in the process of knowledge building. For instance, when professionals external to the ICU team that hold specific knowledge need to be contacted to help in cases, such as during organ donation and transplantation process. In this situation it is necessary to deconstruct the competitive power in order to build the collaborative power. Conclusion Using Freire's and Gramsci's perspectives we argued that lack of knowledge contributes to competitive power which can be overcome if involved individuals engage in the learning process towards a collaborative power approach. Therefore, strategies or action to address interprofessional power imbalances can contribute mutual transformation and change.
