Manejo dos pacientes em morte encefálica / Management of patients in brain death

Objetivo: analisar o conhecimento dos enfermeiros da Emergência e Unidade de Terapia Intensiva em relação ao manejo do paciente em Morte Encefálica. Método: estudo quantitativo, descritivo, exploratório com 18 enfermeiros. Os dados foram coletados utilizando questionário estruturado a partir das diretrizes da Associação de Medicina Intensiva Brasileira e apresentados em tabelas. Resultados: os enfermeiros demonstraram conhecimento favorável sobre os aspectos gerais e suporte hemodinâmico, dentre eles: limites de temperatura, metas pressóricas, agentes vasopressores utilizados e a indicação de reanimação. Em relação ao controle endócrino/metabólico e aos aspectos hematológicos e infecciosos, destaca-se conhecimento apenas acerca da suspensão da dieta enteral e sobre o uso de antibioticoterapia. Conclusão: o conhecimento dos enfermeiros entrevistados acerca do manejo com o potencial doador é deficitário, sendo necessárias capacitações a respeito do tema.(AU)

Performance on naturalistic virtual reality tasks depends on global cognitive functioning as assessed via traditional neurocognitive tests.

This investigation sought to understand whether performance in naturalistic virtual reality tasks for cognitive assessment relates to the cognitive domains that are supposed to be measured. The Shoe Closet Test (SCT) was developed based on a simple visual search task involving attention skills, in which participants have to match each pair of shoes with the colors of the compartments in a virtual shoe closet. The interaction within the virtual environment was made using the Microsoft Kinect. The measures consisted of concurrent paper-and-pencil neurocognitive tests for global cognitive functioning, executive functions, attention, psychomotor ability, and the outcomes of the SCT. The results showed that the SCT correlated with global cognitive performance as measured with the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA). The SCT explained one third of the total variance of this test and revealed good sensitivity and specificity in discriminating scores below one standard deviation in this screening tool. These findings suggest that performance of such functional tasks involves a broad range of cognitive processes that are associated with global cognitive functioning and that may be difficult to isolate through paper-and-pencil neurocognitive tests.

The Art Gallery Test: A Preliminary Comparison between Traditional Neuropsychological and Ecological VR-Based Tests.

Ecological validity should be the cornerstone of any assessment of cognitive functioning. For this purpose, we have developed a preliminary study to test the Art Gallery Test (AGT) as an alternative to traditional neuropsychological testing. The AGT involves three visual search subtests displayed in a virtual reality (VR) art gallery, designed to assess visual attention within an ecologically valid setting. To evaluate the relation between AGT and standard neuropsychological assessment scales, data were collected on a normative sample of healthy adults (n = 30). The measures consisted of concurrent paper-and-pencil neuropsychological measures [Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA), Frontal Assessment Battery (FAB), and Color Trails Test (CTT)] along with the outcomes from the three subtests of the AGT. The results showed significant correlations between the AGT subtests describing different visual search exercises strategies with global and specific cognitive measures. Comparative visual search was associated with attention and cognitive flexibility (CTT); whereas visual searches involving pictograms correlated with global cognitive function (MoCA).

Rito católico e imagem da enfermeira (1957) / Misa católica e imagen de la enfermera (1957) / Catholic Mass and the Nurse's Image (1957)

Objetivo: analisar a imagem da enfermeira na ritualística de missa de formatura, da primeira turma da Escola de Enfermagem de Ribeirão Preto da Universidade de São Paulo (USP) em 1957. Métodos: o texto imagético foi analisado à luz de Pierre Bourdieu e da literatura sobre rito, moda, linguagem corporal, História do Brasil e da Enfermagem. Resultados: foram localizadas duas imagens no acervo histórico institucional que atendiam os critérios de inclusão. O rito de missa de formatura deu-se em 21 de dezembro de 1957, às 8h30 da manhã intitulada "Missa Solene em Ação de Graças, na Capela Sagrado Coração de Jesus, da Santa Casa de Misericórdia de Ribeirão Preto". Conclusão: os signos instituídos no rito de missa de formatura foram o uniforme, a touca, a demarcação com tecido claro do espaço entre as formandas e o público, o que constituiu um espaço de distinção social. Soma-se, ainda, a hexiscorporal que transparece seriedade e pureza, e colabora para a constituição da nova imagem da enfermeira diplomada em Ribeirão Preto. As contribuições deste estudo dão-se na ampliação das discussões sobre a construção da imagem da enfermeira, identidade profissional e influência católica na formação do enfermeiro.

Objetivo: analizar la imagen de la enfermera en el ritual de misa de graduación de la primera clase de la Escuela de Enfermería de Ribeirão Preto de la Universidad de São Paulo (USP) en 1957. Método: las imágenes fueron analizadas a la luz de Pierre Bourdieu y de la literatura sobre rito, moda, lenguaje corporal, Historia de Brasil y de la enfermería. Resultados: han sido ubicadas dos imágenes en la colección histórica institucional que respondían a los criterios de inclusión. El rito de misa de graduación fue celebrado el 21 de diciembre del 1957 a las 8:30 de la mañana, titulado "Misa Solemne en Acción de Gracias, en la Capela Sagrado Coração de Jesus, de la Santa Casa de Misericórdia de Ribeirão Preto". Conclusión: los signos instituidos en el rito de misa de graduación fueron el uniforme, la toca, la demarcación con tela clara del espacio entre graduandas y público, lo que constituye espacio de distinción social. Además, la héxiscorporal revela seriedad y pureza, y colabora hacia la constitución de la nueva imagen de la enfermera diplomada en Ribeirão Preto. Este estudio contribuye con la ampliación de las discusiones sobre la construcción de la imagen de la enfermera, identidad profesional e influencia católica en la formación del enfermero.

Objective: The purpose of the study is to analyze the nurse's image during the commencement mass for the first graduating class of the Ribeirão Preto School of Nursing at the University of São Paulo (USP) in 1957. Methods: The images were analyzed in light of the thinking of Pierre Bourdieu and the literature on rites, fashion, body language, the history of Brazil and the history of nursing. Results: Two images that meet the criteria for inclusion were found in the institution's historical collection. The graduation mass was celebrated on December 21, 1957 at 8:30 a.m. and was entitled the Solemn Mass of Thanksgiving in the Chapel of the Sacred Heart of Jesus at the Ribeirão Preto Holy House of Mercy. Conclusion: The signs instituted in the graduation mass include the uniform, the cap and the space between the graduates and the public, which was marked with clear fabric and denotes an area of social distinction. In addition, the corporal héxis reveals seriousness and purity, and helps to establish the new image of the graduate nurse in Ribeirão Preto. This study serves to broaden the discussion on construction of the nurse's image, professional identity and the Catholic influence in nursing education.

Case report: cutaneous nontuberculous mycobacterial abscesses associated with insulin injections.

Nontuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) infections are on the rise and often cause skin diseases that are misdiagnosed. The authors present three cases of atypical mycobacterial infections in insulin-dependent diabetics occurring in sites of subcutaneous insulin injections. One of the patients was vitamin D deficient at the time of infection with NTM. The history and clinical presentation of the cases are presented; pathogenesis and treatment are discussed in conjunction with the correlation of mycobacterial disease susceptibility with vitamin D deficiency.

Letter: Localized cutaneous reaction to intramuscular vitamin K in a patient with acute fatty liver of pregnancy.

Vitamin K1 is frequently used in the treatment and prevention of hypoprothrombinemia and hemorrhagic disease of the newborn. It also serves as an antidote to anticoagulants. Erythematous, indurated, pruritic plaques uncommonly occur in adults after intramuscular injection with vitamin K1. We present a case of a localized cutaneous reaction to intramuscular vitamin K1 in a peripartum patient with acute fatty liver of pregnancy. The history and clinical presentation of our case is presented with a discussion of the pathogenesis pathogenesis of vitamin K1 and available treatment for this condition.
