Given the realities of external pressures on our daily lives, work-life balance is important now more than ever. Although we often advocate for work-life balance, are we equipped with the appropriate tools and an adequate support network to handle what life might throw at us? How do we continue to be productive when dealing with distressing matters that we seemingly have little control over? Contributors from different areas of the world, with a diversity of voices, offer their perspectives on how to navigate life's obstacles while continuing to meet the expectations of departments, universities, and the profession to achieve career success and fulfillment. This forum highlights authors at different career stages, who have lived through a myriad of experiences including singleness/dating, marriage, pregnancy, parenting, serving as a caretaker, the death of a loved one, toxic work environment, and personal health to share their experiences and provide insights on how to cope with adversity at any point in one's academic career.

In the practice of clinical psychology, there is growing concern about psychologists' self-care. The aim of this study was to adapt and carry out a psychometric study of the self-care assessment measure "Self-Care Assessment for Psychologists - SCAP" (Dorociak et al., 2017) in ("Escala de Avaliação do Autocuidado para Psicólogos - EAAP"). The translation and cross-cultural adaptation were followed by back-translation of the items. In a sample of 87 clinical psychologists, the instrument showed good internal consistency, adequate discriminative power of the items and robust factorial validity, by replicating the original five-factor structure. Involvement in self-care strategies was associated, as expected, with high levels of psychological well-being and low levels of perceived stress, confirming the convergent validity of the measures. In general, there were minor differences in self-care, psychological well-being and perceived stress among clinical psychologists, depending on the variables "professional experience" and "frequency of supervision".

Introduction: COVID-19 manifests with acute symptoms. After coronavirus infection, they may persist or new ones may emerge, compromising functional capacity and self-care. This condition has been named “acute post-COVID-19 syndrome”. Objective: To evaluate functional capacity and self-care in post-COVID-19 patients. Materials and methods: This is a descriptive and exploratory study, which evaluated 53 medical records of patients receiving care in a Functional Recovery Program for acute post-COVID-19 syndrome, conducted at a public university, from August 2022 to August 2023. A descriptive and association analysis was performed using Pearson’s Chi-squared or Fisher’s exact nonparametric tests, with a significance level of 5 % (p < 0.05). Results: Most participants were female, aged over 50 and receiving home care during the infection. Associations were found between the length of hospitalization (p = 0.03), having a history of surgery (p = 0.01), and a medium self-care capacity (p = 0.04) with the functional capacity to perform instrumental activities of daily living (IADL). Conclusion: PostCOVID-19 syndrome is associated with medium self-care capacity and partial dependence in terms of IADLs. The finding contributes to the development of health education and care strategies aimed at providing recovery. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Este artigo é resultado da dissertação de Mestrado intitulada “Dimensões do autocuidado na experiência de mulheres artistas da Baixada Santista”, e tem como objetivo refletir sobre as dimensões de autocuidado estabelecidas na conexão que cada participante cria e narra com a arte, singulares em suas experiências de vida e subjetividades. Fundamentado em vertentes teóricas do feminismo descolonial, que discutem arte e colonialidade, cuidado e capitalismo, as autoras, como artistas e pesquisadoras da saúde, partem da problemática de que a arte ainda atua a serviço de discursos e códigos estéticos impregnados das hierarquias de poder que perpetuam desigualdades em sua produção, distribuição e acesso. Portanto, ancorado à urgência da descolonização do conhecimento, o estudo reitera a potência do fazer artístico na vida das mulheres, quando por meio dele, torna-se possível celebrar a pluralidade, abrir espaço de narrativas, de cuidado, autocuidado, e da própria reinvenção da vida.

Actualmente vivimos en un escenario de crisis de cuidados caracterizado por una creciente demanda de los mismos y por un modelo de provisión deficiente y con escasos recursos. Como respuesta, surgen iniciativas alternativas que articulan de manera colectiva nuevas formas de organización del cuidado. Muchas funcionan de forma autogestionada y se alinean con los principios de la Economía Social y Solidaria y la Economía Feminista. En este contexto, entre 2021 y 2023 hemos llevado a cabo un trabajo etnográfico con el fin de estudiar tres casos del Estado español, mediante 27 entrevistas semiestructuradas, 6 talleres, diversas sesiones de observación participante, así como e-research. La primera es una asociación de trabajado del hogar que presta cuidados principalmente a personas mayores; la segunda, una asociación de familias organizadas en torno a un proyecto de escuela alternativa; y la tercera una cooperativa que elabora alimentos agroecológicos, ofrece catering y facilita la conciliación y la corresponsabilidad del cuidado de criaturas. Estas experiencias y sus participantes habitan espacios de tensión entre la economía del don y las demandas productivo-mercantiles del mercado. Observamos que en ellas persisten sesgos androcéntricos que (re)producen una división sexual del trabajo, manifestada en el reparto desigual de tareas, responsabilidades, funciones y roles, así como en el significado que mujeres y hombres les otorgan. En los tres casos se evidencia también un "estrabismo productivista". El artículo muestra que la teoría del don ofrece un marco que facilita una comprensión más profunda de las relaciones de reciprocidad que sostienen estos proyectos. De este modo, se contextualizan las amenazas, tensiones y contradicciones que socavan las iniciativas comunitarias de cuidado, así como las herramientas feministas desarrolladas en respuesta a ellas, como son, visibilizar y problematizar las desigualdades existentes y practicar el autocuidado. Con ello, se aspira a realizar una contribución a las investigaciones sobre la praxis de la Economía Social y Solidaria desde las perspectivas de la Economía Feminista y la Economía Moral.

Marco contextual: La pandemia COVID-19 implicó cambios en las demandas sanitarias, que trajeron consigo extenuantes horas de trabajo en el personal de enfermería.

Oral anticoagulants are widely used drugs that have been studied from their pharmacotherapy to aspects related to adherence, knowledge, satisfaction, quality of life, education, among others. The construction of a genuine therapeutic relationship with people whose therapeutic indication is the use of these medications, allows and promotes the recognition of health care needs, with the purpose of generating care agreements that respond to the realities they experience. These people during their treatment. Objective: to reveal and analyze the health care needs of people undergoing oral anticoagulation therapy. Method: From the Symphonological Bioethics theory, the analysis of the care needs revealed in a series of in-depth interviews is proposed. Results: needs emerged related to recognition of the person, education and construction of agreements that emancipate and promote the management of one's own health. Conclusion: The Symphonological Bioethics theory allows the nursing professional to determine the care for people under oral anticoagulation therapy through the construction of therapeutic agreements, which favor understanding through awareness of the experienced situation, where the experience transcends the dimension person's biology.

Objective: To understand the experience of self-care of the elderly person in the post-pandemic transition COVID-19. Method: Qualitative phenomenological study, conducted in a city of Mexico, from March to December 2021. The sample was intentional with 8 participants, determined by the criterion of information saturation. Inclusion criteria were: men and women aged 60 years or older, linked to elderly community groups. Data analysis: carried out through the hermeneutic circle: Pre-understanding, Understanding and Interpretation. All participants gave their informed consent. Results: The testimonies allowed us to apprehend six themes: Protective measures and physical care; Awareness of being an elderly person; Care in the face of the infodemic; Being cared for by the family and caring for the other; Learning after the pandemic; Self-care present in the lived experience of the elderly person. Conclusion: The elderly person transits the tempo-rality of their care, and cannot be separated into a before and after, but rather, an understanding of being an elderly person in self-care throughout a phase of learning and internalization of one's own care.

Introduction: The COVID-19 pandemic posed unprecedented challenges to the nursing staff, who were at the forefront of patient care and their families. Exposed to the virus due to strenuous work schedules and other factors, their health was at risk. However, they took proactive self-care actions to counteract these factors, promote selfhealth, and prevent the onset of diseases caused by stressors from the pandemic. These actions, identified in the literature published between 2020-2023, have significantly impacted their individual and collective health. Objective: To identify the self-care strategies implemented by nursing professionals during the COVID-19 pandemic and to analyze them in the light of Giddens’ theoretical proposal. Materials and methods: An integrative literature review under a descriptive scope was conducted between June and September 2023 in the following databases: Pubmed, Scielo, Science Direct, Lilacs, and Google Scholar; also, PRISMA recommendations were taken into account for the organization of the search. Results: 40 articles, published between 2020 and 2023 and representing for different methodological designs, were included in the review. The self-care implemented by nurses during the pandemic was assessed in the light of Giddens’ theoretical proposal under two types of actions: intentional, which account for physical, mental, and emotional health care activities, and deliberate, which focus on care at a social level. Conclusions: The identified self-care actions were oriented toward the promotion of individual and collective health of workers, the reduction of employee turnover, the recognition of stress, and the strengthening of resilience, which can also be implemented nowadays.

Conclusión: Los estudios seleccionados permitieron comprender que las tecnologías educativas ayudan a los niños con anemia falciforme a comprender la enfermedad y a realizar acciones que mejoren sus signos y síntomas, favoreciendo el autocuidado. Sin embargo, es fundamental crear nuevas tecnologías educativas, ya que la mayoría de los hallazgos son antiguos y no se ajustan a la realidad actual.

Objetivo: identificar as tecnologias educacionais utilizadas para auxiliar crianças com anemia falciforme no seu autocuidado. Método: revisão integrativa realizada em seis fases consecutivas, entre os meses de junho a julho de 2023, sem recorte temporal, nos recursos informacionais: Public/Publish Medline, Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde, Scientific Electronic Library Online e Web of Science e Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature. Resultados: foram encontrados cinco estudos, dos quais se destacaram: jogo, dois aplicativos eletrônicos, livro para colorir e imagem guiada para alívio da dor. Todas as tecnologias educacionais refletiram na melhor compreensão da criança sobre o autocuidado. Conclusão: os estudos selecionados permitiram compreender que as tecnologias educacionais auxiliam o público infantil com anemia falciforme na compreensão da doença e em ações que melhorem seus sinais e sintomas, favorecendo o autocuidado, porém, é imprescindível a criação de novas tecnologias educacionais, já que a maioria dos achados é antiga e não condiz com a realidade atual.

Objetivo: Refletir sobre os conceitos da Teoria Geral do Autocuidado de Orem e o cuidado de crianças dependentes de tecnologias. Método: Trata-se de estudo teórico-reflexivo, de natureza interpretativa, realizado em duas etapas: 1) revisão narrativa da literatura sobre a temática e os conceitos das teorias desenvolvidas por Orem e 2) relação entre as teorias e o cuidado às crianças dependentes de tecnologias. Resultados: Durante a assistência, o processo de autocuidado está diretamente associado às demandas de saúde do binômio criança-família. A teoria geral do autocuidado de Orem é composta por três segmentos os quais podem ser entrelaçados ao cuidado às crianças dependentes de tecnologias. Durante a assistência às crianças dependentes de tecnologias, o processo de autocuidado está diretamente associado às demandas de saúde do binômio crianças dependentes de tecnologias e família. Conclusão: As teorias desenvolvidas por Orem permitem aos profissionais de Enfermagem nortear a assistência com ações voltadas para a promoção do autocuidado do binômio criança-família.

Objetivou-se delinear ações baseadas em Práticas Integrativas Complementares em Saúde com a finalidade de propocionar conhecimento e práticas sobre o autocuidado, bem-estar e qualidade de vida por meio de atividades de extensão. As práticas foram direcionadas para uma comunidade de idosas, aos colaboradores da Instituição de Ensino Superior e aos profissionais de uma instituição que desenvolve atendimento e apoio a mulheres vítimas de violência doméstica. Trata-se de um relato de experiência, embasado nos pressupostos teóricos da Metodologia da Problematização, com a aplicação do Arco de Maguerez. Os participantes foram motivados a refletir sobre a temática e relacionar com as suas vivências, discutindo estratégias de autocuidado tanto no ambiente laboral como doméstico. Considera-se que a utilização de metodologias ativas permitiu aos participantes a reflexão sobre o conhecimento e a importância do autocuidado, e também estimulou os extensionistas, futuros profissionais da saúde, para a construção de processos críticos e reflexivos a partir da observação da realidade.

Introdução: a covid-19 se manifesta com sintomas agudos. Após a infecção pelo coronavírus, eles podem persistir ou novos podem surgir, comprometendo a capacidade funcional e o autocuidado. Essa condição foi chamada “síndrome pós-covid-19 aguda”. Objetivo: avaliar a capacidade funcional e o autocuidado em pacientes pós-covid-19. Materiais e método: trata-se de um estudo descritivo e exploratório, que avaliou 53 prontuários de pacientes atendidos em um Programa de Reabilitação Funcional da síndrome pós-covid-19 aguda, desenvolvido em uma universidade pública, de agosto de 2022 a agosto de 2023. Procedeu-se à análise descritiva e de associação com testes não paramétricos Qui-quadrado de Pearson ou exato de Fisher, com nível de significância de 5 % (p

El objetivo del estudio es evaluar el registro discursivo de docentes de la II región de Antofagasta, Chile, en relación con el autocuidado del profesorado, para contribuir al diseño de estrategias eficaces que promuevan la salud mental y el bienestar en los establecimientos educacionales. La propuesta consideró un diseño de investigación fenomenológico-hermenéutico, bajo un enfoque metodológico cualitativo que incluyó la participación de 420 docentes del sistema escolar regional. Los instrumentos de recogida de información incluyeron la encuesta de pregunta abierta y el registro documental. El análisis discursivo se efectuó a través de la categorización y codificación de la información obtenida, por medio de la lógica inductiva. Respecto de los resultados, el discurso docente se inclina hacia una lógica de recreación más que al autocuidado, lo cual omite prácticas que tributen a una atención integral. En el ámbito emocional, se advierte la ausencia de prácticas que fortalezcan la reflexión personal, la autopercepción o la gestión emocional. En cuanto al ámbito social, se enfatiza la importancia de cultivar las relaciones sociales, mientras fortalecen la conexión profunda con su ser interior. Es crucial señalar que un número significativo reveló no efectuar actividades de autocuidado o no saber identificarlas. Se suma a lo anterior la confirmación de que ninguna de las unidades educativas cuenta con la sistematización de prácticas que promuevan el cuidado preventivo de su salud mental. En cuanto al análisis documental, las propuestas se inclinan hacia la dimensión emocional como el eje central que sustenta el cuidado de la salud mental. A modo de conclusión, se advierte la necesidad de que las unidades educativas diseñen, ejecuten y sistematicen estrategias para atender, concientizar y apoyar a los y las profesionales de la educación. Asimismo, el estudio proyecta la ampliación a nuevas líneas de investigación con miras a analizar la viabilidad de las propuestas con foco territorial, evaluando y adecuando la ejecución de los planes de trabajo centrados en el cuidado de la salud mental del grupo participante y su impacto en la promoción del autocuidado en beneficio de la mejora continua de los ambientes educativos propicios.

Objetivo: Mapear as tecnologias em saúde utilizadas para orientação da alta hospitalar de crianças dependentes de tecnologias e, promover a discussão à luz da Teoria do Déficit do Autocuidado. Método: Revisão sistemática ancorada em pressupostos do Joanna Briggs Institute, a fim de responder a seguinte indagação: “Quais tecnologias em saúde auxiliam o processo de alta hospitalar de crianças dependentes de tecnologias?”. Portanto, utilizou-se de equação de busca de alta sensibilidade nas seguintes bases/biblioteca de dados: MEDLINE, SCIELO, CINAHL, Pubmed, Scopus e Web of Science. A seleção foi realizada através de gerenciadores de referências, às cegas, por revisores independentes. A qualidade metodológica dos estudos incluídos foi avaliada por ferramentas específicas e, as informações extraídas foram discutidas à luz da Teoria do Déficit do Autocuidado. Ressalta-se que o protocolo de revisão foi devidamente registrado. Resultados: Foram selecionadas oito publicações que identificaram cinco tecnologias de processo (três roteiros assistenciais com metodologias diversas e dois processos de teleconsultas), e, três tecnologias de produto (cartilhas de educação em saúde). Conclusão: Em suma, ao mapear as tecnologias, percebeu-se a escassez em quantidade e, a ausência de referencial teórico em seu desenvolvimento.

La confección de una estoma de eliminación intestinal implica un cambio en la imagen y funcionamiento corporal de una persona que como consecuencia debe reaprender el autocuidado en materia de eliminación, cuya conducta fue aprendida desde la infancia. El objetivo del presente ensayo es analizar a profundidad si el aprendizaje es un factor determinante o un medio instrumental para la (re)construcción consciente del autocuidado en el paciente con estoma de eliminación intestinal. Para el análisis se ha tomado de referencia los presupuestos de la teoría de Dorothea Orem quien señala que el autocuidado es un sistema de autorregulación humana que requiere la estimulación de procesos cognitivos conductuales por medio del aprendizaje participativo. Así mismo, se postula que cada persona aprende a un ritmo individualizado puesto que, dicha capacidad está determinada por la inteligencia emocional, de la que dispondremos para el aprendizaje de habilidades prácticas. La pérdida de autocontrol, poder y autorregulación debido a la modificación de la imagen y funcionamiento corporales parece ser un condicionante para el aprendizaje, por ello es fundamental el abordaje integral de una serie de condicionantes internos y externos, donde el aprendizaje sea un medio para alcanzar la reconstrucción del autocuidado del paciente estomizado.

Introducción: durante la emergencia por covid-19 el personal de enfermería estuvo presente en el cuidado de los pacientes y sus familias, exponiéndose constantemente al virus debido a los extenuantes horarios de trabajo y a otros factores que llevaron al debilitamiento de su salud. Para contrarrestar dichos factores, se han identificado, en la literatura publicada entre el periodo 2020-2023, diferentes acciones de autocuidado realizadas por los profesionales de enfermería con el fin de promover su salud y prevenir la aparición de enfermedades causadas por estresores propios derivados de la pandemia. Objetivo: identificar las estrategias de autocuidado implementadas por los profesionales de enfermería durante la pandemia covid-19 y analizar las mismas a la luz de la propuesta teórica de Giddens. Materiales y Método: se realizó una revisión integrativa de la literatura con alcance descriptivo entre junio y septiembre de 2023 en las siguientes bases de datos: Pubmed, Scielo, Science Direct, Lilacs y Google Académico; asimismo, se tuvieron en cuenta las recomendaciones PRISMA para la organización de la búsqueda. Resultados: se incluyeron 40 artículos en la revisión, publicados entre 2020 y 2023, con diferentes diseños metodológicos. El autocuidado realizado por los enfermeros durante la pandemia se organizó a la luz de la propuesta teórica de Giddens, mediante dos tipos de acciones: intencionadas, las cuales contienen actividades para el cuidado de la salud física, mental y emocional; y deliberadas, enfocadas al cuidado a nivel social. Conclusión: las acciones de autocuidado identificadas se orientaron a la promoción de la salud individual y colectiva de los trabajadores, la disminución de la deserción laboral, el reconocimiento del estrés y el fortalecimiento de la resiliencia, las cuales también pueden implementarse en la actualidad.

Objetivo: Analisar as Intervenções de Enfermagem disponibilizadas em uma Classificação Internacional, que podem ser utilizadas para o ensino de habilidades de autocuidado a pessoas no Espectro Autista. Método: Estudo descritivo com abordagem qualiquantitativa. Participaram da investigação 23 estudantes, sendo que a coleta de dados aconteceu no período de junho de 2018 a julho de 2019, por meio da aplicação do instrumento validado Avaliação das Habilidades Básicas de Língua e Aprendizagem – Revisado. Resultados: A maioria dos estudantes que não conseguiu realizar as atividades de vestir-se estão na faixa etária de 5 e 10 anos. Quanto à alimentação, as tarefas que os estudantes menos conseguiram realizar foram: passar manteiga no pão; cortar comida com a faca; ajudar a pôr a mesa. Referente à manutenção pessoal, as mais prejudicadas foram: lavar e secar o rosto; pentear ou escovar os cabelos; escovar os dentes. Sobre as habilidades de higiene, as ações que a maioria dos estudantes não conseguiu realizar foram: pedir para usar o banheiro quando necessário; limpar-se após defecar; e usar o banheiro de forma independente. Conclusão: Na Classificação das Intervenções de Enfermagem existem diversos grupos de intervenções capazes de propiciar às pessoas com TEA uma assistência que busque atender às necessidades.

Objetivo: validar el cuestionario “Conocimientos y comportamientos de autocuidado de la mujer embarazada ante los trastornos hipertensivos del embarazo - CoNOCiTHE”. Materiales y Métodos: estudio psicométrico de validez y confiabilidad, realizado en el segundo semestre del 2022 en Santander, Colombia, con una muestra de 217 mujeres embarazadas. La consistencia interna se evaluó con el coeficiente alfa de Cronbach, la confiabilidad test-retest a partir del Coeficiente de Correlación Intraclase (CCI). La validez, examinó la validez de criterio convergente y de grupos conocidos. Resultados: La escala con 72 ítems originales, luego de un análisis de correlación condujo a la eliminación de 14 ítems. El instrumento en su versión definitiva evidenció una consistencia interna de 0,67 y una estabilidad test-retest con un CCI de 0,96. La validez convergente demostró una correlación significativa con los resultados conocimiento: proceso de la enfermedad (rho=0,405; p=0,019) y control del riesgo: hipertensión (rho= 0,503; p=0,003). En la validez de grupos conocidos se encontró diferencias en las puntuaciones de mujeres con más de 20 semanas de gestación y menos de 20 (p=0,009). Conclusiones: Las propiedades psicométricas aceptables del cuestionario lo convierten en una herramienta válida para evaluar el conocimiento y los comportamientos de autocuidado ante los trastornos hipertensivos del embarazo en el idioma español y en el contexto colombiano.

Background: Loneliness and social isolation are significant public health issues. Family nurses play a vital role in identifying and preventing these phenomena and designing interventions to address them. Objective: To evaluate the impact of non-face-to-face follow-up consultations with family nurses on social isolation, quality of life, and disease self-management of older adults living alone in the community. Methodology: This pre-experimental study utilizes a one-group pretest-posttest design on a sample of 24 older adult patients. The Lubben Social Network Scale--6 (LSNS-6), the World Health Organization Quality of Life Group (WHOQOL) - OLD scale, and the Portuguese Version of the Therapeutic Self-Care Scale were used for data collection. Results: Following the intervention, patients' satisfaction with the family nurse's follow-up improved (p < 0.001). Additionally, there was a 33.3% increase in self-care management and a reduction in the risk of social isolation (45.8% to 33.3%). Although not statistically significant, there was also an increase in the global score of the quality of life variable. Conclusion: The non-face-to-face telenursing consultations positively affected the older adult patients' satisfaction with the family nurse's contact and follow-up, reduced social isolation, and improved self-care activities.

Introduction. The research addresses the problems related to biological risk and the health of workers involved in agricultural and livestock activities. These agricultural personnel, when carrying out their functions, are permanently exposed to incidents and accidents related to their work, which becomes a relevant issue to consider an investigation that allows approaching elements involved within the framework of Safety and Health at work. Aim. Describe the acts and conditions associated with the state of health and prevention of biological risk in workers in the agricultural sector. Materials and methods. This study is based on a quantitative approach, adopting a descriptive and non-experimental cross-sectional design. The target population was voluntarily selected and consisted of 15 participants, 6 women and 9 men, all residents of the municipality of Consacá, located in Nariño in southwestern Colombia and linked to agricultural or livestock activities. For the collection of data, the Survey of Morbidity Felt Acts and Unsafe Conditions for Biological Risk to Workers in the Agricultural Sector (ACIRB), designed specifically for this study, was used. This survey is made up of 9 items that evaluate acts and conditions related to biological risk in the work environment. Results. The study presents results in the variables "Acts" and "Conditions". Regarding the "Acts", the behavior of workers in medical examinations, self-medication, use of Personal Protection Elements (PPE) and biosafety information are analyzed. Some performed medical examinations and practiced self-medication. The use of PPE varied, including traditional methods, while first aid kits were absent. In relation to "Conditions", work symptoms and resources for PPE were explored. Various symptoms and economic limitations were identified that led to homemade solutions. conclusions. The research managed to understand the acts and conditions related to health and prevention of biological risks in agricultural workers. The importance of understanding the nature of work to effectively address health and safety challenges is highlighted. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The objective of this study was to understand the perceptions of occupational hazards and self-care that veterinarians from a public university have. Clinical physicians in large and small species, teachers dedicated to clinical laboratory and pathology, as well as surgeons participated. The research was framed in the qualitative research methodology, with a historical hermeneutic and phenomenological approach. How information collection techniques were used: documentary review, interview and focus group. The results show that professionals perceive self-care as a set of practices to maintain physical and mental well-being, which includes all biosafety measures to reduce risks; Likewise, they consider self-care as something integral, which implies taking care of themselves in the workplace, at home and in their environment. They affirm that there are a series of protocols or biosecurity measures that they apply to take care of themselves, but they also state that they do not know these protocols because they have not been socialized. It was evidenced that veterinarians partially comply with biosafety measures, including the use of personal protection elements and recognize ergonomic and psychosocial risk as the most relevant in the work exercise. It is concluded that the participants try to assume self-care measures, but in the event of accidents, incidents and/or occupational illness, they do not activate the corresponding protocols for addressing occupational risks.

The risks inherent to being a doctor or a nurse in palliative care are well known. Since palliative care is a context in which professionals are exposed to specific risks and challenges, self-care is important to promote a better practice and prevent burnout. However, little research has been conducted to determine the impact palliative care setting has in clinical psychologists. It is necessary to explore the influence this work has on the well-being of psychologists, and the relevance they attribute to self-care. This qualitative study explores the experiences of clinical psychologists working in palliative care in order to understand the various aspects related to their self-care. Eleven Portuguese psychologists working in palliative care participated in semi-structured interviews. A thematic analysis was performed, and three main domains emerged: (1) working in palliative care and its impact; (2) self-care: how, what for and why not more; and (3) self-care learning. The findings suggest that being a psychologist in this setting has risks, as being exposed to human suffering, but also has existential positive benefits that allow them to seize their own lives and understand the strengths of humankind. Self-care practices are perceived as improving professional performance and contribute to the well-being of the psychologist. Also, participants recognized some barriers to self-care that seem to be related to the little access to self-care information during their training. This research allows an understanding of self-care practices and gives relevance to this topic within palliative care psychologists. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Objective: To determine the relationship of socioeconomic factors, those inherent to the patient, services during health, treatments and the use of ICT, with adherence to treatment in patients with arterial hypertension who attend a health institution in Duitama, Boyacá. Methodology: A quantitative, descriptive correlational cross-sectional study was developed; in which it was sought to establish relationships between the factors associated with adherence to treatment and adherence to treatment; in a universe of patients with hypertension who attend a health institution in Duitama, Boyacá during January to August 2021, from which and taking into account the inclusion criteria, 200 participants were selected by systematic random sampling. Results: A high degree of correlation was found between socioeconomic factors and the level of ICT usability, with adherence to treatment, and a significant correlation between provider-related, therapy-related, and patient-related factors, with adherence to treatment. treatment in the group of participants, the link between the concepts of adherence to treatment and self-care being relevant. Conclusion: The factors that manage to explain the behavior of adherence of the study group are socioeconomic factors, factors related to therapy, factors related to the patient and the level of usability of Technology of the information and communication.

Objective: To identify the prevalence of functional health literacy and analyze the association between functional health literacy levels and clinical and sociodemographic variables in non-dialysis chronic kidney disease patients. Methods: This is a cross-sectional study carried out with 167 chronic kidney disease patients being monitored at the nephrology outpatient clinic of a large city in the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil. For the interviews, a sociodemographic and clinical questionnaire and the Brazilian version of the Short Assessment of Health Literacy for Portuguese Speaking Adults (SAHLPA-18) were used to measure functional health literacy. Descriptive statistics were performed for sociodemographic and clinical variables, and correlation tests and linear regression models for association with functional health literacy. Results: Most participants were older adults with a median age of 68 years, 33.3% (56 patients) were in stage 3B of chronic kidney disease and 53.9% (90 patients) had inadequate functional health literacy. There was no association between functional health literacy levels and clinical variables. The majority reported not using the internet and the more advanced stage of chronic kidney disease had lower literacy scores. Worse functional health literacy scores were also identified in those with lower income. Conclusion: Most participants had inadequate functional health literacy. Clinical variables were not predictors of literacy scores. However, lower health literacy scores were identified in those with more advanced stage kidney disease, lower income and less internet use.
