Introducción: El síndrome de Guillain-Barré (SGB) es la principal causa de parálisis en niños, y la variante faringo-cérvico-braquial (FCB) es poco común. Esta variante atípica se asocia con secuelas y requiere rehabilitación prolongada. Dado el enfoque predominante durante el tratamiento agudo, este estudio describe la evolución motora, respiratoria y funcional de un niño con SGB, variante FCB, en un centro de neurorrehabilitación durante el período subagudo. Presentación del caso: Un niño de 11 años ingresó con cuadriparesia fláccida y un mayor compromiso en los miembros superiores (MMSS), traqueostomizado y dependiente para las actividades de la vida diaria. Recibió un programa de evaluación y abordaje interdisciplinario intensivo. Logró la decanulación, la marcha y la independencia funcional con adaptaciones, y fue dado de alta luego de 16 semanas. Conclusión: La evolución concuerda con lo reportado en la literatura sobre la presencia de secuelas y los tiempos prolongados de recuperación de la variante FCB. El niño recibió rehabilitación interdisciplinaria intensiva durante 16 semanas y, aún luego de un año, continúa presentando debilidad a nivel distal de los MMSS y fatiga. Estos hallazgos resaltan la importancia de una intervención temprana y una rehabilitación integral en pacientes pediátricos con esta variante particular del SGB.

Objetivo: Identificar en la literatura científica el rol de equipo de enfermería en los equipos de respuesta rápida en la atención del paro cardiorrespiratorio, en las diferentes regiones continentales. Metodología: Se realizó una revisión integrativa de la literatura con búsqueda en las bases de datos PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, Lilacs y CINAHL, utilizando los descriptores: equipo de respuesta rápida, cuidados de enfermería, atención de enfermería, equipo multiprofesional, paro cardíaco y enfermería. Se incluyeron estudios en portugués, inglés y español, publicados entre 2010 y 2020, que describieran el papel de la enfermería en los equipos de respuesta rápida. Resultados: La muestra comprendió 6 artículos y abarcó prácticamente la mitad del continente americano, específicamente en América del Norte. El papel de los enfermeros en los equipos de respuesta rápida incluye dos dimensiones: la asistencial, que abarca la atención directa al paciente crítico hasta la llegada del profesional médico, y la administrativa, relacionada con actividades de educación continua, elaboración de protocolos clínicos y comunicación entre sectores, equipos y gestión de la asistencia. Conclusiones: El equipo de enfermería, en los equipos de respuesta rápida, desarrolla el papel de coordinador de múltiples actividades asistenciales y de gestión para los pacientes hospitalizados con signos de empeoramiento clínico y que necesitan intervención inmediata.

Objetivo: analizar el alcance de los indicadores de desempeño del Programa Previne Brasil de Atención Primaria a la Salud. Método: para ello, se realizó un estudio observacional, descriptivo, con abordaje cuantitativo, utilizando datos secundarios, referentes a los años 2020 y 2021, en las cinco regiones brasileñas (Norte, Nordeste, Sur, Sudeste y Centro Oeste), disponibles en el Sistema de Información de la Atención Primaria de Salud. Se utilizaron estadísticas descriptivas, frecuencias relativas y medidas de tendencia central y modelación semiparamétrica considerando un intervalo de confianza del 5%. Resultados: hubo evidencia de evolución en las tasas de los indicadores de desempeño en la mayoría de las regiones brasileñas en 2021, en comparación con 2020, sin embargo, las Regiones Norte y Centro Oeste presentaron tasas incipientes o negativas, en comparación con la Región Sudeste. A pesar de la evolución en las tasas de los indicadores, pocos estados lograron alcanzar las metas establecidas por el Ministerio de Salud para las acciones estratégicas de atención prenatal y salud de la mujer, mientras que ningún estado logró la meta en la acción estratégica de enfermedades crónicas. Conclusión: se considera importante acompañar la evolución de los indicadores actuales, previendo su calificación para que puedan evaluar el seguimiento y la atención primaria en salud, así como garantizar la consecución de las metas asegurando la financiación de las acciones de atención primaria.

Objective: to investigate the understanding of the professionals of the nursing team of a hospital in the interior of Mato Grosso about the role of the psychologist in the hospital environment. Method: descriptive-exploratory study with a qualitative approach. The sample was composed by convenience by nursing professionals from a medium-sized hospital in the south of Mato Grosso. Data were collected through semistructured interviews between June and July 2020, being transcribed and analyzed according to the theoretical precepts of Bardin's content analysis. Results: from the narratives of 24 nursing professionals, two thematic categories emerged, the place and function of the psychologist as a team member; needs and requests for psychological assistance. Conclusion: the participants understand the work of the psychologist focused on what they consider compromising nursing care or satisfactory clinical evolution for hospital discharge. This may be interfering with the request or limitation of psychological assistance, as hospital psychology routinely performs more care after the identification of demands by other professionals who are effectively in direct and prolonged contact with the patient and family.

Objective: to assess patient safety culture (PSC) from the perspective of the multidisciplinary team working at a general hospital. Method: this a cross-sectional study with a quantitative approach, based on the application of the Brazilian electronic version of the Hospital Survey on Patient Safety Culture from the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality. Data collection took place in August 2022 through Equestionário de PSC. Results: a total of 236 nursing professionals, doctors and multidisciplinary teams responded to the questionnaire. Of the 12 PSC dimensions assessed, seven stood out with percentages between 63.3% and 95%, considered strong, one with 50% positivity, indicating a growing dimension, and four with lower percentages, with 50% of positive answers identified as weak areas. Conclusion: it was possible to assess PSC in the hospital environment and perceive the strong, weak and growing dimensions. Progressing in this practice is challenging for teams looking for a reliable organization. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Objective: to identify the dreams of workers about how the future of work in the Psychosocial Care Network (RAPS - Rede de Atenção Psicossocial) could be. Method: appreciative, qualitative research, with a participatory approach, guided by the Discovery, Dream, Planning and Destination Cycle, articulated to the theoretical framework of Paulo Freire. Thirteen RAPS workers from Santa Maria, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil participated. Data were produced from December 2019 to July 2020, with semi-structured interviews and recorded discussion groups. Data analysis was performed through coding, categorization and identification of themes. Results: workers dream of a network with sufficient human and structural resources; care flow defined collectively; approach to management; work in the territory; committed workers, appreciation and attention to their mental health. Conclusion: dreams converged with what is already advocated in public policies, but require an organized and committed collective that fights for change. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Objective: to apprehend the perceptions of health professionals working in the Intensive Care Unit on palliative care in the care of patients with Covid-19. Method: descriptive-exploratory study, qualitative, conducted with professionals who worked in an Intensive Care Unit of a public hospital. The collection took place in 2021, through semi-structured interviews. The data were organized and analyzed using the IRAMUTEQ® software, considering the reference of Content Analysis. Results: 10 professionals participated. Three categories emerged from the speeches: There is still a lack of knowledge: barrier to the implementation of palliative care; Palliative care is not a death decree!: expanded perception of the concept; It helps maintain the dignity of the person: palliative care in the context of the Covid-19 pandemic. Final considerations: in the context of the pandemic, professionals felt insecurity and unprepared to implement palliative care, especially due to incipient knowledge, although they understood it as an important tool to maintain human dignity.

Objective: To understand healthcare professionals' perception of best practices in maternal and child health. Materials and methods: This qualitative exploratory-descriptive study was conducted between December 2020 and March 2021. The study corpus consisted of 23 healthcare professionals from southern Brazil. Data were collected using a semi-structured script and coded based on Minayo's thematic content analysis proposed. Results: Data analysis enabled the delimitation of two thematic categories: "best practices in maternal and child health: from idealization to accomplishment" and "strategies to qualify the maternal and child healthcare network." Conclusions: Healthcare professionals recognize the relevance of best practices in maternal and child health, although this process must be expanded and consolidated. Continuing education, hospitality, ambiance, improved access, and the professional-user connection stand out among the qualifying strategies. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Introduction: Problems related to patient safety in the pre-hospital context are little explored, but essential, given the vulnerability to incidents. Objective: To analyze the patient safety climate from the perspective of the multidisciplinary team that works in Mobile Pre-Hospital Care (PHC). Materials and Methods: Cross-sectional study, conducted in a Mobile Pre-Hospital Care. Data collection was performed through Safety attitudes Questionnaire (SAQ), with convenience sampling and participation rate of 94.3% of eligible professionals. Descriptive statistics and the Mann-Whitney test were used for data analysis. Results: Among the 151 participating professionals, males predominated (54.6%), nursing assistants and technicians (42.0%), working for 10 or more years (61.0%), in adult and pediatric care (93.4%). The SAQ Total had a median of 70, indicating a negative perception of the participants about patient safety in the APH. The domains with a negative perception were: Safety Climate, Stress Recognition, Management Perception and Working Conditions; while the Teamwork Climate and Job Satisfaction domains showed a positive perception. In the comparative analysis among professionals, differences were observed between some categories for the domains of Job Satisfaction, Stress Recognition and Working Conditions. Conclusions: This study presents the peculiarities of emergency medical services and the need to sensitize professionals and managers about patient safety, with a view to better understanding the current scenario and possibilities of reducing adverse events to improve the care offered.

Introduction: The presence of physical, psychosocial, and spiritual signs and symptoms should be identified and managed through the palliative care that health care teams and professionals provide. Objective: To identify the palliative care needs of people with heart failure, their caregivers, and the multidisciplinary team of a heart failure unit. Materials and Methods: A mixed-method study with a sequential transformative design (DITRAS, for its acronym in Spanish) was conducted. It began with a quantitative phase in which the Edmonton Symptom Assessment Scale (ESAS), the Therapy-Spiritual Well-Being Scale (FACIT-Sp-12), and the Barthel Index were used. The qualitative phase was conducted with three focus groups involving seven patients, eight caregivers, and twelve health professionals from the multidisciplinary team. Elizabeth Lenz's Theory of Unpleasant Symptoms was used as a guideline for this study. Results: Physiological (edema, fatigue, and dyspnea) and psychological (attitude towards life and enjoyment of hobbies) palliative care needs and situational factors (caregiver dependence and support networks) were identified and could be understood through Lenz's theory. Conclusions: Palliative care needs in patients with heart failure are presented under a framework of symptoms that patients, caregivers, and the health care team perceive. Comprehensive approaches are required to improve symptom experience. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Chronic renal disease (CRD) is an important public health problem. There is no a national renal health program in Peru. There is evidence that the multidisciplinary model of care in patients with CRD delays progression and reduces all-cause mortality. Although there is no agreement on certain topics, such as at which glomerular filtration rate should the multidisciplinary team work, it is clear that outcomes are improved. Human and financial resources are needed to implement this approach. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Background: at the end of life, the patient with cancer conditions presents various physical, emotional and spiritual symptoms. Palliative medicine allows a continuous and comprehensive treatment for the diagnosis and control of symptoms. Objective: to describe the incidence of symptoms according to the location of the initial tumor and its transition in the last stage of the disease. Method: a descriptive, longitudinal, prospective study of 100 terminally ill patients treated at the Institute of Oncology and Radiobiology was carried out between September 2017 and September 2019. The medical history record with two evaluations was taken as a source, using Edmonton Symptom Rating Scale, modified. A questionnaire was developed using the in-depth interview technique to collect information on symptoms. With the information, a database was made in Microsoft Excel 16.0 and they were processed using the SPSS-PC statistical package in version 19.0.1 for Windows, which made it possible to make tables and graphs. Results: the incidence of nine symptoms is described, the main ones: pain, fatigue, loss of appetite, anxiety and depression, independent of the anatomical structure affected by the primary tumor. A higher incidence of pain was found in general (78 %). During the final stage, the most frequent symptoms were: fatigue, anxiety, loss of appetite and dyspnea. Conclusion: the symptoms in terminal patients with cancer diseases are multiple and variable, sometimes closely related to the natural history of their disease. Symptomatic diagnosis and control requires recognizing needs and generating collective strategies to minimize suffering.

Highlights: La FC suele estar acompañada de otras patologías crónicas que hacen que la persona presente múltiples síntomas asociados que deben ser abordados por profesionales y equipos de cuidado paliativo. Los profesionales de la salud reconocen la importancia del cuidado paliativo y la falta de preparación para abordar las necesidades espirituales, emocionales, sociales, de pacientes y los cuidadores con FC. La teoría de Lenz permite identificar los síntomas fisiológicos, psicológicos y situacionales durante la FC, permitiendo a los equipos de cuidado paliativo establecer estrategias para mejorar la experiencia del síntoma. El abordaje de cuidados paliativos en FC implica una atención integral, buscando una mejor calidad de vida y mejorar la experiencia del síntoma como lo plantea Lenz, durante toda la trayectoria de la experiencia de la enfermedad hasta la muerte del paciente. Introducción: La presencia de signos y síntomas físicos, psicosociales y espirituales, deben ser identificados y controlados por medio de la atención en cuidados paliativos que proveen los equipos y profesionales de la salud. Objetivo: Identificar las necesidades de cuidado paliativo de las personas con falla cardíaca, sus cuidadores y el equipo multidisciplinario de una unidad de falla cardiaca. Materiales y Métodos: Estudio mixto, con diseño transformativo secuencial (DITRAS), que inicio con una fase cuantitativa en la que se aplicaron los instrumentos: Edmonton, Facit-Sp-12 y el índice de Barthel. La segunda fase cualitativa se realizó con 3 grupos focales en los que participaron 7 pacientes, 8 cuidadores y 12 profesionales del equipo multidisciplinario. El estudio tomo como guía orientadora la teoría del manejo de síntomas desagradables de Elizabeth Lenz. Resultados: Se identificaron necesidades de cuidado paliativo desde lo fisiológico: edema, fatiga y disnea; psicológico: actitud frente a la vida y disfrutar de pasatiempos y factores situacionales: como dependencia del cuidador y redes de apoyo, los cuales permitieron su comprensión a partir de la teoría de Lenz. Conclusiones: Las necesidades de cuidado paliativo en pacientes con falla cardiaca, se presentan desde un marco de síntomas que son percibidas por pacientes, cuidadores y el equipo de salud. Se requieren abordajes integrales que mejoren la experiencia del síntoma.

Hypertension remains the leading cause of cardiovascular disease globally despite the availability of safe and effective treatments. Unfortunately, many barriers exist to controlling hypertension, including a lack of effective screening and awareness, an inability to access treatment and challenges with its management when it is treated. Addressing these barriers is complex and requires engaging in a systematic and sustained approach across communities over time. This analysis aims to describe the key elements needed to create an effective delivery system for hypertension control. A successful system requires political will and supportive leadership at all levels of an organization, including at the point of care delivery (office or clinic), in the health care system, and at regional, state and national levels. Effective screening and outreach systems are necessary to identify individuals not previously diagnosed with hypertension, and a system for follow up and tracking is needed after people are diagnosed. Implementing simple protocols for treating hypertension can reduce confusion among providers and increase treatment efficiency. Ensuring easy access to safe, effective and affordable medications can increase blood pressure control and potentially decrease health care system costs. Task-sharing among members of the health care team can expand the services that are delivered. Finally, monitoring of and reporting on the performance of the health care team are needed to learn from those who are doing well, disseminate ideas to those in need of improvement and identify individual patients who need outreach or additional care. Successful large-scale hypertension programs in different settings share many of these key elements and serve as examples to improve systems of hypertension care delivery throughout the world.

Objective: to identify the patient safety strategies adopted by the multidisciplinary team in high-risk pregnancy. Method: descriptive, qualitative study conducted with the multidisciplinary team responsible for specialized care for high-risk pregnancy in a city in southern Brazil. The interviews took place in March 2020 and the results were grouped into thematic categories. Results: two themes were highlighted: safety in embracement and flow of care to high-risk pregnant women, represented by the role of primary and secondary care in assistance to pregnant women, early identification of risk factors and/or aggravations to pregnancy and guidelines for the safety of high-risk pregnant women, identifying the need for individualized multiprofessional care to the needs of pregnant women. Conclusion: strategies for the safety of high-risk pregnant women go beyond safety protocols and denote the need to adapt to the context of secondary care. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Objective: to analyze the difficulties and strategies to achieve integrality of care in physical rehabilitation. Method: study based on Hermeneutics-dialectics. Data collection was carried out through semi-structured interviews with analysis through the Meanings Interpretation Method. Twenty-four professionals from a Rehabilitation Center in the countryside of the state of São Paulo, Brazil, participated. Results: five categories emerged: understanding health as a universal right; professional education; multi-professional teamwork; participation of the patient as the protagonist in the care process; strategies for achieve integrality. The difficulties in achieving integrality in physical rehabilitation are related to the user, the care and the management, and suggestions for improvement indicate the importance of reflecting on the practice for structuring courses and training. Conclusion: the difficulties and overcoming strategies point to possible communicative paths with the participation of the actors involved, which can enable integrality. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
