Clinical validity of the nursing diagnosis risk for unstable blood glucose level in persons with type 2 diabetes mellitus: A case-control study.

OBJECTIVE: To assess clinical-causal validity evidence of the nursing diagnosis, risk for unstable blood glucose level (00179), in individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus. METHODS: A case-control study was conducted in 5 primary healthcare units, involving 107 subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus, 60 in the case group and 47 in the control group. Causality was determined by the association between sociodemographic and clinical factors, risk factors related to the nursing diagnosis, and the occurrence of unstable blood glucose level. An association was considered when the risk factor had a p-value of <0.05 and odds ratio >1. RESULTS: Risk factors, such as stress, inadequate physical activity, and low adherence to therapeutic regimen, were prevalent in the sample. Time since diagnosis between 1-5 and 6-10 years, multiracial ethnicity, and the risk factor of low adherence to therapeutic regimen increased the likelihood of the outcome. Completion of high school education was identified as a protective factor. CONCLUSIONS: The clinical validation of the nursing diagnosis, risk for unstable blood glucose level, has been successfully established, revealing a clear association between sociodemographic and clinical factors and the risk factors inherent to the nursing diagnosis. IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSING PRACTICE: The results contribute to advancing scientific knowledge related to nursing education, research, and practice and provide support for the evolution of nursing care processes for individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

OBJETIVO: Avaliar a evidência de validade clínico­causal do diagnóstico de enfermagem, risco para nível instável de glicose no sangue (00179), em indivíduos com diabetes mellitus tipo 2. MÉTODO: Foi realizado um estudo caso­controle em cinco unidades básicas de saúde, envolvendo 107 indivíduos com diabetes mellitus tipo 2, 60 no grupo caso e 47 no grupo controle. A causalidade foi determinada pela associação entre fatores sociodemográficos e clínicos, fatores de risco relacionados ao diagnóstico de enfermagem e a ocorrência de nível instável de glicose no sangue. Uma associação foi considerada quando o fator de risco tinha um valor de p < 0.05 e odds ratio > 1. RESULTADOS: Fatores de risco como estresse, atividade física inadequada e baixa adesão ao regime terapêutico foram predominantes na amostra. O tempo desde o diagnóstico entre 1 e 5 anos e 6 a 10 anos, a etnia parda e o fator de risco baixa adesão ao regime terapêutico aumentaram a probabilidade do resultado. A conclusão do ensino médio foi identificada como um fator de proteção. CONCLUSÕES: A validação clínica do diagnóstico de enfermagem, risco para nível instável de glicose no sangue, foi estabelecida com sucesso, revelando uma clara associação entre fatores sociodemográficos e clínicos e os fatores de risco inerentes ao diagnóstico de enfermagem. IMPLICAÇÕES PARA A PRÁTICA DE ENFERMAGEM: Os resultados contribuem para o avanço do conhecimento científico relacionado à educação, à pesquisa e à prática de enfermagem e fornecem suporte para a evolução dos processos de cuidados de enfermagem para indivíduos com diabetes.

Determination of intraocular pressure and Schirmer tear test and the comparison between the applanation tonometer (Tono-Pen AVIA®) and the rebound tonometer (TonoVet Plus®) in mini lionhead rabbits.

OBJECTIVE: To determine intraocular pressure (IOP) and tear production, as well as to compare the IOP obtained with the TonoVet Plus® (rebound) with the Tono-Pen Avia® (applanation) tonometers. ANIMALS: Twenty-five Mini Lionhead rabbits (n = 50 eyes). PROCEDURE: Tear production was measured at 6:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. by using the STT. The IOP reading was performed with the rebound tonometer, followed by the applanation tonometer, at 6:00 a.m., 9:00 a.m., 12:00 p.m., 3:00 p.m., and 6:00 p.m. Regression analysis, analysis of variance (anova) and Bland-Altman statistics were used. RESULTS: Daily tear production was 10.25 ± 3.75 mm/min, with no differences among the moments evaluated. Average daily IOP was 17.7 ± 3.08 mmHg with the TonoVet Plus® and 11.5 ± 4.56 mmHg with the Tono-Pen Avia®. IOP values were higher at the beginning and end of the day with both tonometers. CONCLUSION: The IOP values are higher with the TonoVet Plus® tonometer. The reference values of IOP and tear production obtained in this work may support the diagnosis, treatment, and monitoring of ocular disorders in pet Mini Lionhead rabbits.

Models of Support for Caregivers and Patients with the Post-COVID-19 Condition: A Scoping Review.

BACKGROUND: In December 2019, an outbreak of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), caused by the novel severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), occurred in the city of Wuhan, China. On 30 January 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak a public health emergency of international concern. In October 2021, with the advancement of the disease, the World Health Organization defined the post-COVID-19 condition. The post-COVID-19 condition occurs in individuals with a history of probable or confirmed infection with SARS-CoV-2, usually 3 months after the onset of the disease. The chronicity of COVID-19 has increased the importance of recognizing caregivers and their needs. METHODS: We conducted a scoping review following international guidelines to map the models of support for caregivers and patients with the post-COVID-19 condition. The searches were conducted in electronic databases and the grey literature. The Population, Concept, and Context framework was used: Population: patients with the post-COVID-19 condition and caregivers; Concept: models of caregiver and patient support; and Context: post-COVID-19 condition. A total of 3258 records were identified through the electronic search, and 20 articles were included in the final sample. RESULTS: The studies approached existing guidelines and health policies for post-COVID-19 condition patients and support services for patients and home caregivers such as telerehabilitation, multidisciplinary care, hybrid models of care, and follow-up services. Only one study specifically addressed the home caregivers of patients with this clinical condition. CONCLUSIONS: The review indicates that strategies such as telerehabilitation are effective for training and monitoring the patient-family dyad, but the conditions of access and digital literacy must be considered.

Estratégias organizacionais no centro cirúrgico diante da pandemia de COVID 19: uma revisão integrativa / Organizational strategies in the operating room during COVID 19 pandemic: An integrative review

Introdução: Os sistemas de saúde foram desafiados a desenvolver estratégias organizacionais para a prestação de cuidados cirúrgicos. Objetivo: Apresentar as estratégias dos serviços de saúde no que se refere às práticas de cuidados cirúrgicos em tempos de pandemia de COVID-19. Materiais e métodos: Revisão integrativa, desenvolvida em seis etapas, cuja busca dos artigos ocorreu na Biblioteca Virtual de Saúde, SciELO, PubMed e ScienceDirect. Os descritores controlados em saúde adotados foram "Centros Cirúrgicos" e "Infecções por Coronavírus", de acordo com os sistemas DeCS e MeSH Terms. Foram selecionados 60 artigos de 405 estudos encontrados. Resultados: As principais estratégias utilizadas pelos serviços de saúde foram: a suspensão e adiamento de cirurgias eletivas durante as ondas de contágio da doença; e a triagem cuidadosa dos pacientes para COVID-19 antes e após intervenções cirúrgicas. Discussão: A suspensão e o adiamento de cirurgias eletivas devem ser avaliados com cautela pela equipe de saúde, de forma individualizada, para cada paciente, visto que situações clínicas não urgentes podem agravar ao longo do tempo, aumentando as chances de morbimortalidade desses pacientes. Conclusão: A triagem dos pacientes e dos profissionais da saúde para COVID-19 são estratégias importantes para evitar a contaminação desses sujeitos. A suspensão e o adiamento de cirurgias eletivas, durante as ondas de contágio por COVID-19, são recomendados para aumentar a capacidade de leitos disponíveis para pacientes graves hospitalizados por essa doença. Essa recomendação também auxilia no remanejamento de profissionais desse setor para as unidades com a demanda de cuidados de saúde mais elevada.

Introduction: Health systems were challenged to develop organizational strategies for the delivery of surgical care. Objective: To present the strategies of health services with regard to surgical care practices in times of the COVID-19 pandemic. Materials and Methods: An integrative review was conducted following six stages; the search for articles was performed using the Virtual Health Library, SciELO, PubMed, and ScienceDirect. The science descriptors adopted were "Surgicenters" and "Coronavirus Infections," according to the DeCS-MeSH terms system. We selected 60 articles from 405 studies found. Results:The main strategies used by the health services were to suspend and postpone elective surgeries during waves of disease transmission and careful screening of patients with COVID-19 before and after surgery. Discussion: The suspension and postponement of elective surgeries should be carefully evaluated by the health team, individually for each patient since non-urgent clinical situations may worsen over time, increasing the chances of morbidity and mortality in these patients. Conclusions: Screening patients and health professionals for COVID-19, according to the reality of surgical units, centers or outpatient clinics, is an important strategy to avoid contamination of these subjects. The suspension and postponement of elective surgeries, during the waves of contagion by COVID-19, is recommended to increase the capacity of beds available for critically ill patients hospitalized for this disease. This recommendation also helps in the reassignment of professionals in this sector to the units with the highest demand for health care.

Conclusión: El triaje de dos pacientes y dos profesionales de la salud para COVID-19 son estrategias importantes para evitar la contaminación de estos sujetos. Se recomienda la suspensión y postergación de cirugías electivas, durante las olas de contagio por COVID-19, para aumentar la capacidad de camas disponibles para pacientes críticos hospitalizados por esta enfermedad. Esta recomendación también ayuda en la reasignación de profesionales de este sector a las unidades con mayor demanda de atención en salud.

Challenges for maintaining surgical care practices in the COVID-19 pandemic: an integrative review.

OBJECTIVES: To present the knowledge produced on challenges of health services for maintaining surgical care practices in times of the COVID-19 pandemic. METHODS: This is an integrative literature review, performed with descriptors 'Operating rooms' and 'Coronavirus Infections' in the MEDLINE/PubMed Central, IBECS, LILACS, BDENF, Coleta SUS, BIGG, BINACIS, SciELO, PubMed, Science Direct, and Cochrane Library databases. RESULTS: Of the 405 studies analyzed, 27 met the inclusion criteria. The main challenges for surgical services during the pandemic were: (i) rearrangement of general practice in surgical units; (ii) administration and management of resources and elective surgeries; (iii) follow-up and control of preoperative patients to medium term; (iv) maintenance of patients' and health professionals' autonomy and mental health in this context; and (v) teaching health residents in the operating room. CONCLUSIONS: For surgical care services, the challenges caused by managing the high demand of patients in need of care resulted in the transfer of own resources to other units and the consequent hiring of professionals to meet the demand for these services due to the damming of postponed elective surgeries. This knowledge will allow us to propose strategies in decision making in this scenario, considering the new waves that may arise from this disease.

Tissue oxygenation in peripheral muscles and functional capacity in cystic fibrosis: a cross-sectional study.

NEW FINDINGS: What is the central question of this study? How do peripheral muscle tissue oxygenation and physical conditioning levels of children and adolescents with cystic fibrosis compare to demographically matched controls? What is the main finding and its importance? Children and adolescents with cystic fibrosis consumed more oxygen, more quickly and exhibited slower recovery, demonstrating that there may have been deficiencies in oxygen supply related to both oxygen uptake and oxygen transport. ABSTRACT: Cystic fibrosis affects skeletal muscle performance and functional capacity. However, it is currently unclear how peripheral muscle behaviour is affected, especially in children and adolescents. To examine this, we compared tissue oxygenation of children and adolescents with cystic fibrosis against healthy volunteers. We also evaluated the functional capacity of participants via the modified shuttle test (MST) and assessed for associations between performance and near-infrared spectroscopy. A total of 124 participants enrolled. Participants were divided into either the cystic fibrosis group (CFG) or the healthy group (HG). Statistical comparisons between groups were evaluated with the Mann-Whitney U test and associations with functional capacity were evaluated using Spearman's correlation coefficient. CFG volunteers scored lower on the MST compared to the HG. They walked shorter distances (P = 0.001) with less efficiency because they performed the tests with a less efficient walking economy (P = 0.001) and a greater deoxyhaemoglobin concentration (P = 0.001). Further, they experienced reduced tissue oxygen saturation (P = 0.037) faster than the HG. As a result, they presented lower respiratory (P = 0.001) and lower heart (P = 0.001) rate values at the end of the MST, with a longer post-test heart rate recovery time (P = 0.005). There was a significant association between deoxygenation time and functional capacity. The CFG consumed more oxygen, more quickly, with a slower recovery, reflecting impairments in the dynamics of muscle oxygen extraction. The results suggest differences in functional capacity and haemodynamic recovery in children and adolescents with cystic fibrosis.

Anestesia intravenosa contínua com dextrocetamina e detomidina em cadelas submetidas à ovário-histerectomia e pré-medicadas com midazolam e morfina / Continuous intravenous anesthesia by dextroketamine and detomidine in bitches subjected to ovariohysterectomy and premedicated with midazolam and morphine

Background: The use of injectable anesthetics to induce and maintain anesthesia has been the subject of extensive research.Ketamine induces dissociative anesthesia, which is characterized by sensory loss, analgesia and amnesia without loss of consciousness. The levorotatory isomer of ketamine is dextroketamine. Detomidine, a potent myorelaxant that acts as a sedative andanalgesic, is commonly used on horses but rarely tested in dogs. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the cardiorespiratoryand anesthetic effects promoted by a combination of detomidine and dextroketamine applied via continuous intravenous infusionin bitches premedicated with midazolam and morphine.Materials, Methods & Results:Eight bitches treated at the veterinary hospital of the Federal University of Campina Grande werereferred for elective ovariohysterectomy (OHE). The animals were premedicated with 0.3 mg/kg of midazolam and 0.1 mg/kgof morphine intramuscular (IM) followed, after 15 min, with 0.02 mg/kg of detomidine IM. Fifteen min after the administration of detomidine, 3.5 mg/kg of dextroketamine was administered intravenously (IV), followed by continuous IV infusion of14 mg/kg/h of dextroketamine and 30 μg/kg/h of detomidine. Heart rate (HR), respiratory rate (RR), body temperature (BT),mean arterial pressure (MAP), myorelaxation and electrocardiogram were recorded before and 15 min after the administrationof midazolam and morphine (M0 and M1), 15 min after detomidine (M2), immediately after starting the infusion (M3), at 10min intervals up to 60 min (M4, M5, M6, M7, M8 and M9) and 30 min after the end of the infusion (M10). Blood gas variableswere analyzed at M0, M1, M2, M6, M9 and M10. Analgesia was evaluated by measuring cortisol and glucose levels at M0, threemin after dermotomy, three min after clamping the ovarian pedicle, and three min after dermorrhaphy. The quality and durationof recovery were evaluated. HR dropped significantly from...(AU)

Anestesia intravenosa contínua com dextrocetamina e detomidina em cadelas submetidas à ovário-histerectomia e pré-medicadas com midazolam e morfina / Continuous intravenous anesthesia by dextroketamine and detomidine in bitches subjected to ovariohysterectomy and premedicated with midazolam and morphine

Background: The use of injectable anesthetics to induce and maintain anesthesia has been the subject of extensive research.Ketamine induces dissociative anesthesia, which is characterized by sensory loss, analgesia and amnesia without loss of consciousness. The levorotatory isomer of ketamine is dextroketamine. Detomidine, a potent myorelaxant that acts as a sedative andanalgesic, is commonly used on horses but rarely tested in dogs. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the cardiorespiratoryand anesthetic effects promoted by a combination of detomidine and dextroketamine applied via continuous intravenous infusionin bitches premedicated with midazolam and morphine.Materials, Methods & Results:Eight bitches treated at the veterinary hospital of the Federal University of Campina Grande werereferred for elective ovariohysterectomy (OHE). The animals were premedicated with 0.3 mg/kg of midazolam and 0.1 mg/kgof morphine intramuscular (IM) followed, after 15 min, with 0.02 mg/kg of detomidine IM. Fifteen min after the administration of detomidine, 3.5 mg/kg of dextroketamine was administered intravenously (IV), followed by continuous IV infusion of14 mg/kg/h of dextroketamine and 30 μg/kg/h of detomidine. Heart rate (HR), respiratory rate (RR), body temperature (BT),mean arterial pressure (MAP), myorelaxation and electrocardiogram were recorded before and 15 min after the administrationof midazolam and morphine (M0 and M1), 15 min after detomidine (M2), immediately after starting the infusion (M3), at 10min intervals up to 60 min (M4, M5, M6, M7, M8 and M9) and 30 min after the end of the infusion (M10).

Effect of gadolinium incorporation on the structure and luminescence properties of niobium-based materials.

In this work, we have investigated how the concentration of Gd3+ ions affects the structural and luminescent properties of niobium oxide-based matrices doped with Eu3+ ions obtained by the adapted non-hydrolytic sol-gel route. X-ray diffractograms revealed that increasing the concentration of Gd3+ ions favored the onset of the Gd2O3 structure decreasing the GdNbO4 phase. The excitation spectra (λ em = 613 nm) presented bands corresponding to the 7F0 â†’ 5LJ transitions (L = D, G, and L, where J = 0-7), attributed to the Eu3+ ions, and a broad band at 270 nm, assigned to the charge transfer of the [Formula: see text] group. The emission spectra contained bands refer to the 5D0 â†’ 7FJ internal configuration transitions (J = 0, 1, 2, 3, and 4). Finally, the CIE chromaticity coordinates met the standard for the color red established by the National Television Standard Committee (NTSC).

Concordância entre valores autorreferidos e mensurados de massa corporal e estatura para o diagnóstico do estado nutricional em universitários de educação física / Agreement between values self-reported and measured of body mass and height for diagnosis of nutritional status in physical education academics

INTRODUÇÃO: Massa corporal e estatura autorreferidas têm sido utilizadas cada vez mais em estudos, sobretudo naqueles que envolvem grandes amostras. OBJETIVO: Analisar a concordância entre valores de Massa Corporal (MC) e estatura autorreferidos e mensurados para o diagnóstico do Estado Nutricional (EN) em universitários de educação física. MÉTODOS: A amostra foi composta por 301 acadêmicos (56,5% mulheres), que relataram valores de MC e estatura, bem como tiveram essas variáveis mensuradas por meio de balança eletrônica e estadiômetro da marca Welmy, respectivamente. O Índice de Massa Corporal (IMC) foi obtido pela relação massa corporal (kg) e estatura (m2). RESULTADOS: Embora tenham sido observadas diferenças entre algumas médias, o Coeficiente de Correlação Intraclasse (CCI) demonstrou alta concordância, com variação de 0,94 a 0,99. Quando a análise envolveu grupos conforme o EN os resultados mostraram baixa concordância apenas para o IMC do grupo obesidade (0,57), sendo que os demais valores de CCI foram predominantemente acima de 0,90. Após categorização do EN, a concordância entre as frequências foi considerada boa (0,82). Utilizando a técnica de Bland e Altman, observou-se que a média das diferenças entre o valor mensurado e autorreferido foi próxima de zero (0,36 kg/m²) com Intervalo de Confiança (IC95%) variando de -1,18 a 1,91 kg/m². CONCLUSÃO: Verificaram-se evidências suficientes para a utilização de valores autorreferidos de MC e estatura, bem como para o diagnóstico do estado nutricional, sendo nessa população uma opção válida e segura.

INTRODUCTION: Self-reported body mass and height have been increasingly used in studies, especially those involving large sample sizes. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the agreement between measured and self-reported Body Mass (BM) and height to evaluate the Nutritional Status (NS) in physical education students. METHODS: The sample was composed by 301 students (56.5% women) who reported their BM and height, in addition to the measure of these variables by Welmy electronic scale and stadiometer, respectively. The Body Mass Index (BMI) was calculated by the relation between body mass (kg) and height (m2). RESULTS: Although differences were observed among some means, the Intraclass Correlation Coefficient (ICC) showed good agreement, ranging from 0.94 to 0.99. When the analysis involved groups, according to the NS, the results showed low agreement only for BMI from the obesity group (0.57) and the other ICC values were predominantly above 0.90. After the categorization of NS, the correlation between the frequencies was considered good (0.82). When using Bland and Altman technique, it was observed that the mean difference between selfreported and measured values was close to zero (0.36 kg/m²), with a Confidence Interval (95%CI) ranging from -1.18 to 1.91 kg/m². CONCLUSION: Satisfactory evidences were observed for the utilization of the self-reported values of BM and stature for the assessment of the nutritional state, being a valid and safe option for this population.
