RESUMO
A sarcopenia é uma síndrome caracterizada por perda progressiva e generalizada de massa e força do músculo esquelética, bem como possivelmente da musculatura respiratória com risco de desfechos adversos, como declínio da funcionalidade, má qualidade de vida e morte. O risco de complicações respiratórias e infecções na população idosa é elevado, o que pode ser devido, em parte, as alterações da força do diafragma. OBJETIVO: Avaliar a associação entre força muscular periférica e força muscular respiratória em idosos hospitalizados. MÉTODOS: Trata-se de um estudo realizado em um hospital público na cidade de Salvador, Bahia. As variáveis primárias mensuradas foram medidas antropométricas, força de preensão palmar, força muscular respiratória através da aferição da pressão inspiratória máxima (PImáx), velocidade de marcha e presença de tabagismo. As variáveis secundárias extraídas a partir de dados de prontuário foram idade, gênero, diagnóstico médico admissional, perfil clínico admissional (clínico ou cirúrgico), tempo de internação no momento da coleta e índice de comorbidades de Charlson. Para avaliação entre as variáveis da FPP e força muscular respiratória foi utilizado a análise da correlação de Pearson. RESULTADOS: Dos 95 idosos avaliados, 73,7% era do sexo masculino, 89,5% tinham internação por motivo cirúrgico (40,2% cirurgias abdominais; 30,4% cirurgias urológicas; 16,3% amputações; 13,1% outras cirurgias), IMC 24,5 ± 4,1Kg/m2. A média de idade foi 68,1±6,1 anos, força de preensão palmar 31,3 ± 9,1Kgf e PImáx -77,5±33,2 cm H2O. O tempo para avaliação inicial foi de 4,3 ± 3,1 dias após internação hospitalar. O índice de comorbidades de Charlson foi de 3,6 ± 1,89 e a pontuação do mini-exame do estado mental foi 22,9±7,22. A correlação entre a força de preensão palmar e a força muscular respiratória foi moderada (R=-0,439 e valor de p= 0,001). CONCLUSÃO: Existe relação entre FMR e FMP, bem como a FMR pode predizer dinapenia. Apesar disso, recomenda-se que a avaliação da FMR e FMP sejam feitas de forma individualizada para um posterior direcionamento do plano terapêutico, já que esta relação foi apenas moderada.
Sarcopenia is a syndrome characterized by the progressive and widespread loss of skeletal muscle mass and strength, which can be used as a life-threatening respiratory massage, such as decline in function, poor quality of life, and death. The risk of respiratory and control complications in the elderly population is one that may be due to a change in the strength of the diaphragm. OBJECTIVE: To assess the association between peripheral muscle strength and respiratory muscle strength in hospitalized elderly. METHODS: this is a study carried out in a public hospital in Salvador, Bahia. The primary variables measured were anthropometric measurements, palmar grip strength, respiratory muscle strength through maximal inspiratory pressure (MIP), gait velocity and presence of smoking. The secondary variables extracted from medical records were age, gender, admission medical diagnosis, admission clinical profile (clinical or surgical), length of hospital stay at time of collection and Charlson comorbidities index. The Pearson correlation analysis was used to evaluate the PPF variables and respiratory muscle strength. RESULTS: Of the 95 elderly patients evaluated, 73.7% were male, 89.5% were hospitalized for surgical reasons (40.2% were abdominal surgeries, 30.4% were urological surgeries, 16.3% were amputations, 13.1% were other surgeries ), BMI 24.5 ± 4.1 kg / m2. The mean age was 68.1 ± 6.1 years, palmar grip strength 31.3 ± 9.1 Kgf and PImax -77.5 ± 33.2 cm H2O. The time for initial evaluation was 4.3 ± 3.1 days after hospital admission. The Charlson comorbidities index was 3.6 ± 1.89 and the mini-mental status score was 22.9 ± 7.22. The correlation between palmar grip strength and respiratory muscle strength was moderate (R = -0.439 and p = 0.001). CONCLUSION: There is a relationship between FMR and FMP, and FMR can predict dynapenia. Despite this, it is recommended that the evaluation of FMR and FMP be made in an individualized way for a subsequent direction of the therapeutic plan, since this relationship was only moderate.

The objective of the study was to evaluate the prevalence and factors associated with Burnout Syndrome (BS) in Primary Health Care (PHC) nursing professionals from the state of Bahia, Brazil. A multicentre, cross-sectional population-based study was conducted in a cluster sample among 1125 PHC Nursing professionals during the years 2017 and 2018. We used a questionnaire that included sociodemographic, labor and lifestyle variables and the Maslach Burnout Inventory scale to identify BS. The associations were evaluated using a robust Poisson regression with the hierarchical selection of the independent variables. The prevalence of BS was 18.3% and the associated factors were ethnicity (prevalence ratio (PR) = 0.62, confidence interval (CI) 95% = 0.47-0.83), residence (PR = 2.35, CI 95% = 1.79-3.09), economic situation (PR = 1.40, CI 95% = 1.06-1.86), satisfaction with current occupation (PR = 1.75, CI 95% = 1.31-2.33), (PR = 1.60, CI 95% = 1.23-2.08), rest (PR = 1.83, 95% CI = 1.41-2.37), technical resources and equipment (PR = 1.37, CI 95% = 1.06-1.77), night shift (PR = 1.49, CI 95% = 1.14-1.96), physical activity practice (PR = 1.72; CI 95% = 1.28-2.31), smoking (PR = 1.82, CI 95% = 1.35-2.45), and satisfaction with physical form (PR = 1.34, CI 95% = 1.01-179). Strategies are needed to prevent BS, with an emphasis on implementing worker health programs in the context of PHC.
