Behavioral Pediatrics: A Team-Based Interprofessional Approach

Tolliver, Matthew, Thibeault, Deborah, Dodd, William, Dodd, Julia 01 March 2022 (has links)
An interprofessional approach to pediatric behavioral care is increasingly important in the care of pediatric patients, who present to healthcare settings with a wide variety of concerns ranging from potty training to depression. Previously, much of the care of these patients have focused on a narrow approach to the problem, based on the expertise of the professional providing care. Faculty from three disciplines: Social Work, Psychology, and Medicine collaborated to design a course for students from these three disciplines to collaborate in attaining three goals: (1) reinforce the importance of multidisciplinary collaboration, (2) share clinical techniques and skills in a simulated interprofessional setting, and (3) practice collaboration within interprofessional teams. We detail the course goals and design and topics covered and discuss implementation of this course. Suggested module content and pedagogical design are discussed, and case examples are detailed with the goal of encouraging the adoption of similar courses.

Methodological challenges in evidence gathering and assessment for guideline development in rare diseases: an example from hemophilia

Yeung, Cindy Hoi Ting January 2016 (has links)
The guideline development process can be challenging when diseases are rare. The development of the NHF-McMaster Guideline on Care Models for Hemophilia Management presented an opportunity to identify methodological challenges for guideline development in rare diseases. Several methodological challenges were identified in the evidence gathering and assessment stages. Eight challenges were presented in the development of a systematic review on care models for hemophilia management. The barriers to conducting the systematic review were mostly due to the paucity of high quality evidence in hemophilia care models. Due to the paucity of high-quality evidence typical of a rare condition such as hemophilia, indirect evidence from other chronic conditions were sought through an overview of reviews. Seven challenges were identified in the development of an overview on integrated multidisciplinary care for the management of chronic conditions in adults. The barriers were mainly due to unestablished methodology for conducting overviews, and the challenge of applying this evidence in the context of hemophilia for the guideline. To overcome the methodological challenges with evidence gathering and assessment for rare disease guideline development, the decision-making process to derive solutions were transparently presented. Overall, the methodological challenges as well as apparent facilitators from a rare disease setting are shown to be related to the barriers and facilitators at the research, clinical, and guideline development phase. As a result, using an example from hemophilia, this thesis has demonstrated that it is possible to develop high quality guidelines for rare diseases. / Thesis / Master of Science (MSc)

”Vi måste sätta och hålla i gränserna, det är jätteviktigt, förebyggande och främjande är det viktigaste” : En kvalitativ studie om elevhälsans förebyggande arbete samt pågående insatser mot mobbning / “We need to set and enforce boundaries, that is very important, the prevention and promotion work is the most important” : A qualitative study on student care team's preventive work and ongoing actions against bullying

Hassan, Sado, Isse, Hafsa January 2023 (has links)
Mobbning är ett universellt fenomen som sker i olika miljöer i gruppsammanhang, bland annat på arbetsplatser och i skolor. Psykisk ohälsa ökar i takt med att mobbningen ökar, och kan ge livslånga effekter hos mobbningsoffret. Syftet med den här studien är att undersöka hur mobbning hanteras i svenska skolor. Specifikt undersöker studien olika strategier som elevhälsoteamen arbetar med för att förebygga mobbning och motverka pågående mobbning i skolmiljön och hur det arbetet ser ut utifrån ett individ- och grupperspektiv, samt huruvida mobbning orsakas av individuella eller sociala faktorer. Denna studie utgår ifrån socialpsykologiska teorier och begrepp kring social identitet, gruppdynamik och sociala normer. Tio intervjuer genomfördes och urvalet bestod av respondenter verksamma inom elevhälsan, både som kuratorer och skolsköterskor. Studiens resultat visar att mobbning är ett gruppfenomen snarare än ett individfenomen. Det har framkommit olika arbetssätt att arbeta både förebyggande och åtgärdande på individnivå och på gruppnivå. Det har även visat sig att lärare har en väsentlig påverkan på det förebyggande arbetet mot mobbning. Elevhälsans arbete får bäst resultat när samtlig skolpersonal arbetar med varandra för att motverka mobbning är ett ytterligare resultat. / Bullying is a universal phenomenon that occurs in group settings, including workplaces and schools. Mental illness increases as bullying increases and might cause the victim lifelong effects. The aim of this study is to look into how bullying is handled in Swedish schools. The study specifically explores different strategies that the student care team works on preventing the occurrence of bullying and ongoing bullying in the school environment from an individual and group perspective, and whether bullying is caused by individual or social factors. This study is based on social psychological theories and concepts such as the social identity theory, group dynamics and social norms. Ten interviews were conducted in the process. The results of this study demonstrate that bullying is a group phenomenon. It has shown different working methods to prevent and remediate from individual and group level. The results of this study reveal that bullying is a group phenomenon rather than an individual one. There has also been emphasis and great importance on the essential influence of the teachers in the work. It has been shown that the work of student care gets the best results when everyone at the school helps each other to counteract bullying.

Traumatic brain injury caregivers experiences : an exploratory study in the Western Cape

Broodryk, Mandi 12 1900 (has links)
Thesis (MA)-- Stellenbosch University, 2014. / ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Family caregivers play a large role in the lives of traumatic brain injury (TBI) survivors. This study explored the experiences of family members who care for TBI survivors in the Western Cape. Emphasis was placed on the challenges and resources that were associated with the caregiving role. A qualitative exploratory research design was implemented, whereby thematic analysis was utilised to examine the semi-structured interviews that were conducted with 12 female family caregivers of TBI survivors. Several challenges emerged, namely trauma, consequences of a TBI, responsibilities, lack of support, unawareness, financial burden, emotional challenges and coping. Several resources were also identified, namely the road to recovery, social support, financial resource and coping. These findings suggest that although caregivers who care for a family member who sustained a TBI face several challenges through the caregiving task, these individuals have a number of resources that help them to cope. Interventions that focus on psycho-education have been identified as an important need amongst the participants of this study. In addition, the need for support groups were highlighted as an important way in which many of the challenges that these caregivers experience could be addressed. Caregivers also expressed a need for more active involvement of health care professionals with regard to the provision of guidance, empathy and information. It seems as if the caregivers view the relationship between themselves and the health care professionals involved in the treatment of their family member who sustained a TBI as very important. It was however evident from the findings of this study that the caregivers are generally not satisfied with the quality of the interaction between the health care professionals and themselves. This study’s findings serve as a basis for future research studies on the experiences of family caregivers of TBI survivors in the Western Cape. / AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Gesinsversorgers speel ’n groot rol in die lewens van oorlewendes van traumatiese breinbeserings (TBB). Hierdie studie het die ervaringe van gesinsversorgers van TBB-oorlewendes in die Wes-Kaap verken. Die fokus is op die uitdagings en hulpbronne wat geassosieer word met die versorgingsrol. ’n Kwalitatiewe ontwerp is geïmplementeer, waarby tematiese analise gebruik is om die semigestruktureerde onderhoude van 12 vroulike gesinsversorgers van TBB-oorlewendes te bestudeer. Verskeie uitdagings het na vore gekom, naamlik trauma, gevolge van TBB, verantwoordelikhede, gebrek aan ondersteuning, onbewustheid, finansiële las, emosionele uitdagings en hantering. Die hulpbronne wat geïdentifiseer is, het die pad na herstel, sosiale ondersteuning, finansiële hulpbron en hantering ingesluit. Intervensies wat fokus op psigo-opvoeding is geïndentifiseer as ’n belangrike behoefte onder die deelnemers aan die studie. Hierbenewens is ook ’n behoefte aan ondersteuningsgroepe uitgelig as ’n belangrike wyse om die vele uitdagings wat hierdie versorgers ervaar aan te pak. Die versorgers het ook ’n behoefte ervaar aan meer aktiewe betrokkenheid van gesondheidskundiges ten opsigte van die voorsiening van leiding, empatie en inligting. Dit blyk dat versorgers die verhouding tussen hulself en die gesondheidskundiges betrokke by hul gesinslid met die TBB as belangrik beskou. Desnietemin blyk dit duidelik uit die bevindinge van hierdie studie dat versorgers oor die algemeen nie tevrede is met die kwaliteit van die interaksie tussen die gesondheidskundiges en hulself nie. Die bevindinge van hierdie studie dien as basis vir toekomstige navorsing oor die ervaringe van gesinsversorgers van TBB-oorlewendes in the Wes-Kaap.

The role and importance of context in collective learning : multiple case studies in Scottish primary care

Greig, Gail January 2008 (has links)
Organisational learning is conceptualised within healthcare policy as an acontextual entity to be implemented across services through a prescribed governance framework. Studies of organisational learning often exclude context in this way. The central questions of this thesis concern how and why context is relevant and important in relation to organisational learning. In order to address these issues, context and organisational learning were conceptualised as mutually constitutive activity and knowing-in-practice respectively. Taking a cultural-historical activity theoretical approach, learning is understood to be an intrinsic part of activity. These issues were explored empirically through qualitative case study in three purposively sampled Scottish primary care teams. Initial findings suggested collective learning occurred through participation in everyday activity. Team accounts of apparently the same routine object of work revealed distinctive patterns of activity. Each team seemed to be doing the same thing differently. Exploration of mediating means present in each teamâ s activity accounted for these differences: although similar on the surface, the attribution of meaning to each was contested and shaped through the cultural, historical and inherently contextual activity which they mediated within each activity system. Further analysis demonstrated members of each primary care team co-configured these objects with members of other interlinked activity systems. Different things were actually being done in similarly different ways. This showed how inherently contextual activities shaped the content of collective learning and offered an explanation of why context is relevant and important in collective learning. These findings suggest efforts to transfer knowledge as a discrete, manageable entity between situations are unlikely to succeed due to the filtering and translating effect of inherently contextual activity. From this perspective, organisational learning and related concepts such as â implementationâ and â best practiceâ become problematic. Healthcare policy concerning collective learning, within which such approaches are central, may benefit from reconsideration.

Aspectos facilitadores e dificultadores do trabalho em equipe em Unidade de Alta Densidade Tecnológica / Facilitating and hindering aspects of teamwork in High-density 7Technology Unit

Goulart, Bethania Ferreira 20 August 2015 (has links)
O trabalho em equipe representa estratégia para superação da frágil articulação entre profissionais, sendo potencializado pela prática colaborativa entre agentes e gestão participativa. Entretanto, os arranjos organizacionais não favorecem a interação entre os profissionais e dificultam o trabalho em equipe. A magnitude dos agravos cardiovasculares por serviços regulados e estruturados, pautados num enfoque multiprofissional em saúde, a carência de publicações científicas sobre trabalho em equipe na atenção hospitalar, a potência do trabalho em equipe para responder às demandas reais de saúde justificam investigações a respeito do trabalho em equipe de saúde em Unidade Coronariana, particularizando a compreensão de aspectos que dificultam e facilitam esse trabalho. Assim, esta pesquisa teve como objetivo analisar o trabalho em equipe, desenvolvido em unidade hospitalar de alta densidade tecnológica, segundo a perspectiva da equipe de saúde. É um estudo descritivo, utilizando dados qualitativos e quantitativos, realizado em Unidade Coronariana de um Hospital público, de ensino, de nível terciário, referência para atendimento de alta densidade tecnológica. A população constituiu-se de profissionais da equipe multiprofissional que atuavam na referida unidade há, pelo menos, um ano, sendo excluídos aqueles que se encontravam afastados do trabalho à época da coleta dos dados e os não localizados após três tentativas para agendamento da entrevista. Utilizou-se a Técnica do Incidente Crítico, e os dados primários foram coletados por meio de entrevista semiestruturada. A análise dos dados fundamentou-se em análise de conteúdo. Participaram do estudo 45 profissionais da equipe de saúde, sendo 20 técnicos/auxiliares de enfermagem; 11 médicos; nove enfermeiros; quatro fisioterapeutas e um psicólogo. Das entrevistas, emergiram 49 situações, das quais 38 (77,6%) receberam referências negativas e 11 (22,4%), positivas; 385 comportamentos, sendo 209 (54,2%) positivos e 176 (45,8%) negativos; além de 182 consequências que receberam 131 (71,9%) referências negativas e 51 (28,1%) positivas. As referências positivas indicam aspectos que facilitam o trabalho em equipe e as negativas, aqueles que dificultam. Foram considerados facilitadores do trabalho em equipe colaborar/relacionar-se com os outros profissionais, desenvolver assistência ao paciente conforme a competência profissional, relacionamento entre agentes pautado na prática colaborativa e comunicação. Aspectos como baixa colaboração entre profissionais, gerenciamento inadequado de agentes, despreparo profissional no atendimento à parada cardiorrespiratória/emergência, divergências nas condutas terapêuticas, limitação de recursos materiais e agir de maneira descomprometida com o trabalho dificultam o trabalho em equipe. Conclui-se que, apesar do predomínio de situações e consequências negativas relativas à dinâmica do trabalho em equipe nessa Unidade Coronariana, a ênfase em comportamentos positivos, favoráveis ao trabalho em equipe, evidencia investimento e esforço para superar dificuldades, na perspectiva da potência do trabalho em equipe para atingir a finalidade do trabalho em saúde. A partir dos resultados, acredita-se que aspectos relativos à formação/capacitação profissional e à organização do serviço precisam favorecer o trabalho em equipe, estando a centralidade do processo de trabalho dessa equipe nas relações entre agentes / Teamwork is a strategy for overcoming the fragile link between professionals, enhanced by collaborative practices between agents and participatory management. However, the organizational arrangements do not favor the interaction between professionals, hindering teamwork. The magnitude of cardiovascular diseases, worsened by regulated and structured services, guided by a multi-professional approach to health, and the lack of scientific publications on teamwork in hospital care and its potential to meet real health needs justify studying the teamwork of a health team in a Coronary Care Unit, individualizing the understanding of aspects that hinder and facilitate this work. Thus, the aim of this study was to analyze the teamwork developed in hospital of high technological density, from the perspective of the health team. It is a descriptive study using qualitative and quantitative data, held in a teaching, tertiary, reference Coronary Care Unit for a high technological density service. The population consisted of professionals from the multidisciplinary team who worked in that unit for at least one year, excluding those who were out of work at the time of data collection or who were not located after three attempts to schedule the interview. The Critical Incident Technique was used, and primary data were collected through semi- structured interviews. Data analysis was based on content analysis. Study participants were 45 health team professionals, 20 nursing technicians/aides; 11 physicians; 9 nurses; 4 physical therapists and 1 psychologist. The interviews revealed 49 situations, of which 38 (77.6%) were negative references and 11 (22.4%) positive; 385 behaviors, where 209 (54.2%) were positive and 176 (45.8%) negative; in addition to receiving 182 consequences of which 131 (71.9%) were negative and 51 (28.1%) were positive references. Positive references indicate aspects that facilitate teamwork and negative aspects that hinder it. The characteristics among staff such as collaboration/relationship with other professionals, development of patient care according to professional competence, relationship between guided agents in collaborative and communication practice were considered teamwork facilitators. Aspects such as low collaboration among professionals, inadequate agent management, lack of professional preparation to assist heart arrests/emergencies, differences in therapeutic approaches, limitation of material resources and lack of commitment to work hinder teamwork. In conclusion, despite the predominance of negative situations and consequences related to the dynamics of teamwork in this Coronary Care Unit, the emphasis on positive behavior, favorable to teamwork, shows investment and effort to overcome difficulties in view of the teamwork potential to achieve the purpose of health work. Analyzing these results, it is believed that aspects of the professional education/training and service organization must promote teamwork, with the centrality of the working process of this team focused on the relationships among agents

Atuação do enfermeiro de Atenção Básica no âmbito da articulação da prática interprofissional / Nurse actions in basic healthcare in the scope of interprofessional articulation

Aguiar, Carla 25 November 2013 (has links)
Introdução: O estudo propõe analisar o trabalho do enfermeiro na atenção básica de saúde, no contexto das relações entre trabalhadores da equipe de saúde da família e do núcleo de apoio à saúde da família (NASF), para conhecer como se dá a participação do enfermeiro na promoção de ações interprofissionais. Objetivos: Identificar as ações interprofissionais nas quais o enfermeiro participa e analisar as concepções dos profissionais de saúde das unidades básicas de saúde (UBS) sobre a participação do enfermeiro nas ações interprofissionais e sobre o trabalho em equipe. Método: Estudo de caso com abordagem qualitativa realizado em uma UBS da região sul do município de São Paulo. Coleta de dados através de observação direta do trabalho das equipes e entrevista com base na técnica de incidente crítico, com 15 profissionais de uma Equipe de Saúde da Família, Saúde Bucal e NASF. Na análise utilizou-se análise temática e triangulação. Resultados: Foram identificados oito tipos de ações interprofissionais nas quais o enfermeiro participa: consulta compartilhada, consulta de enfermagem que se desdobra em consulta compartilhada, atendimento compartilhado, espaço de troca e oportunidades de articulação, discussão de dúvidas, coordenação do cuidado, encaminhamentos pela enfermeira para outros profissionais e encaminhamentos de outros profissionais para a enfermeira. Os resultados mostraram o predomínio de consultas compartilhadas com médico e profissionais do NASF e que o conjunto das ações interprofissionais são orientadas por duas lógicas distintas: lógica das necessidades de saúde do usuário e lógica de agilizar o atendimento, ou a combinação de ambas. Independentemente da orientação da ação, foram identificadas duas abordagens também distintas: biomédica ou atenção integral à saúde. Conclusão: As ações interprofissionais observadas evidenciam características de trabalho em equipe integrado e prática colaborativa, destacando-se a atuação da enfermeira como agente de distribuição e convergência de informações e sua participação na ação interprofissional, em especial relacionada à prática clínica. Nas ações interprofissionais orientadas pela lógica das necessidades de saúde, houve o predomínio da abordagem pautada na busca da integralidade e nas ações interprofissionais voltadas à lógica de agilizar o atendimento, predominou a abordagem biomédica, com foco na doença e aspectos a ela relacionados. As ações desenvolvidas em conjunto entre enfermeira e profissionais do NASF, evidenciam a atuação deste como recurso de matriciamento e de apoio técnico-pedagógico, pois tanto representa a extensão da abordagem das necessidades de saúde de usuários, como educação permanente dos envolvidos / Introduction: In this study we propose to analyze the work of the basic healthcare nurse in the context of the relationship between workers of the family healthcare team and the support nucleus of the family healthcare (NASF -- núcleo de apoio à saúde da família) to acknowledge how the participation of the nurse in the promotion of interprofessional actions occurs. Objective: Identify the interprofessional actions where the nurse takes part and analyze the ideas of the healthcare professionals of the healthcare basic units (UBS -- unidades básicas de saúde) on nurse participation in interprofessional actions and in teamwork. Method: Case study with a qualitative approach conducted in a UBS of the southern area of the municipality of São Paulo. Data collection through direct observation of the work of the teams, and interviews based on the critical incidents technique, with 15 professionals of a Family Health Team, Buccal Health, and NASF. For the analysis, thematic analysis and triangulation were applied. Results: Eight types of interprofessional actions where the nurse takes part were identified: Shared visits, nurse visits that turns into a shared visit, shared care, a space for exchanges and articulation opportunities, discussion of issues, care coordination, referrals by the nurse to other professionals, and referrals of the other professionals to the nurse. The results have shown the predominance of shared visits with physicians and NASF professionals, and that the whole of interprofessional actions are guided by two different reasoning: Reasoning of the health needs of the user, and reasoning of speeding up the care, or a combination of both. Regardless of the action guidance, two approaches, also different, were identified: Biomedical or integral healthcare. Conclusion: The interprofessional actions observed point to integrated teamwork and collaborative practice characteristics, with the nurse action standing out as an agent of information delivery and convergence, and their participation in the interprofessional action, mainly in relation with the clinical practice. The interprofessional actions guided by the reasoning of health needs have shown the predominance of the approach ruled by the search of integrality, and in the interprofessional actions, directed by the reasoning of speeding up care, biomedical approach has prevailed, with focus on disease and their related aspects. The actions developed together by nurses and NASF professionals, point to its action as a matrix and technical and pedagogical support resource, for they represent the extension of the approach of health needs of the user as well as the permanent education of the involved

Absenteísmo no serviço ambulatorial do SUS: estratégias e perspectivas das equipes de saúde na rede pública no Departamento Regional de Saúde II - Araçatuba-SP 2011-2017 / Absenteeism in the outpatient service of SUS: strategies and perspectives of health teams in the public network of the Regional Department of Health II - Araçatuba-SP 2011-2017

Catelan, Daniele 23 July 2018 (has links)
O absenteísmo, ou seja, a falha no atendimento (FA) ou não atendimento (NA) dos usuários nos serviços de saúde do Sistema Único de Saúde (SUS) é um assunto de crescente interesse devido ao grande número de pessoas aguardando atendimento e ao contexto econômico atual. A problemática acarreta prejuízos a todos envolvidos, pois prolonga a conclusão diagnóstica, prejudica o tratamento, diminui a produtividade do prestador, causa aumento de tempo na espera por atendimento dos demais usuários e desperdício de recursos públicos. Portanto, o objetivo deste estudo foi compreender os motivos do absenteísmo nos serviços de saúde e as estratégias praticadas para a redução de falhas no atendimento. Trata-se de pesquisa qualitativa, com desenho de estudo de caso descritivo-exploratório, baseado em entrevistas semi-estruturadas e grupo focal. A coleta de dados visou a identificar diferentes opiniões e explicações para o absenteísmo, as estratégias e perspectivas utilizadas pelas equipes de saúde da AME e das secretarias de saúde de quatro municípios. Foram selecionados quatro casos traçadores para evidenciar experiências típicas, ou seja, dois municípios que pudessem demonstrar uma dinâmica mais exitosa no controle do absenteísmo e outros dois representantes de experiências menos exitosas. A análise permitiu representar o perfil dos serviços locais \"em situação\", discutindo estratégias, processos de trabalho, facilidades e dificuldades. Foi possível evidenciar as diferentes características e fluxos nos quatro municípios estudados, bem como a pequena ou inexistente discussão sobre o absenteísmo. Durante as entrevistas, nenhum dos entrevistados sabia ao certo a taxa de falha de atendimento e demonstraram-se surpresos quando informados de que são em média 560 consultas especializadas perdidas por mês. Todos concordaram que devem ser adotadas estratégias de prevenção ao absenteísmo, e, principalmente, esses dados devem ser divulgados à população. Concordaram ainda que outros setores podem e devem ser copartícipes na efetivação de uma rede local de atenção à saúde, no registro do fluxo dos usuários, utilizando diferentes espaços para a promoção da frequência ao atendimento e educação em saúde. Foram compartilhadas várias estratégias e propostas de mudança para reorganização municipal e alteração nos fluxos de trabalho, bem como comunicação entre os serviços e os usuários. Este estudo proporcionou a oportunidade de discussão entre os envolvidos no processo de acesso aos serviços de saúde do AME Araçatuba. Permitiu a reflexão sobre responsabilidades e papéis dos atores no processo. O folder produzido a partir desta pesquisa e apoiado pela revisão bibliográfica será utilizado na capacitação de profissionais, com a finalidade de subsidiar o planejamento em saúde e melhorar a assistência proposta ao usuário do SUS. / Absenteeism, that is, the non-attendance of users in health services of Unified Health System is a subject of growing interest due to large number of people waiting for care and current economic context. The problem entails damages to all involved, since it prolongs the diagnostic conclusion, impairs the treatment, decreases the provider\'s productivity, causes an increase in waiting time for other users\' attention, and wastage of public resources. Therefore, the aim in this study was to understand the reasons for absenteeism in health services and the strategies used to reduce service failures. It is qualitative research, in the design of the case study, descriptive-exploratory based on interstructure interviews and focal group. The interview is a technique of collecting data through group interactions, mediated by a facilitator, to encourage the formation of opinions on the absenteeism, strategies and perspectives of the health teams. Four tracer cases were selected to show typical experiences, that is, two municipalities that could demonstrate the most successful dynamics in control of absenteeism and two other less successful representatives of the same. The analysis allowed to represent the profile of local services \"in situation\", discussing strategies, work processes, facilities, and difficulties. It was possible to show the different characteristics and flows between the four municipalities studied and how little or no discussion about absenteeism is available. During the interview, none of municipalities interviewed knew for certain that the rate of service failure was surprising when informed that they are on average 560 specialized consultations lost per month. All agreed that strategies should be taken, and especially, these data should be made public. They also agree that other sectors can and should be partners in the implementation of the local health care network, in execution of flow users, use of other spaces for awareness, and education in health. Several strategies and proposals for change have been shared for municipal reorganization and changes in workflows and communication between services and users. This study provided the opportunity for discussion among those involved in the process of access to the health services of Ambulatory Care of Araçatuba. It allowed for reflection on the responsibilities and roles of actors in the process. The folder produced from this research and supported by bibliographic review will be used to train professionals, with the purpose of subsidizing health planning and improving the proposed assistance to Unified Health System users.

Trabalho em equipe e competência profissional na Estratégia Saúde da Família: a percepção do cirurgião dentista / Team work and Professional competence in the Family Health Strategy: the surgeon dentists perceptions

Pinto, Carolina Carvalho Menez 31 October 2008 (has links)
PINTO, C. C. M. Trabalho em equipe e competência profissional na Estratégia Saúde da Família: a percepção do cirurgião dentista. 2008. 121f. Dissertação (Mestrado em Saúde na Comunidade). Faculdade de Medicina de Ribeirão Preto-USP, Ribeirão Preto, 2008. A Saúde Bucal deve ser entendida como parte integrante e inseparável da saúde geral do indivíduo e que está relacionada com as condições de saneamento; alimentação; moradia; trabalho; educação; renda; transporte; lazer; liberdade; e acesso à terra, aos serviços de saúde e à informação (BRASIL, 1993). Um ator nesta história se torna primordial, o cirurgião dentista, responsável por proporcionar padrões adequados de saúde bucal para o conjunto da população de um país, de uma região, ou de uma localidade; procurando formular estratégias e linhas de ação que permitam a construção de uma saúde de base coletiva. Esta investigação tem por objetivo analisar a percepção do cirurgião dentista da equipe de saúde Bucal (ESB) sobre a Estratégia Saúde da Família (ESF) e a Saúde Bucal; com enfoques no trabalho em equipe e nas suas competências na ESF. Constitui-se em um estudo descritivo exploratório com abordagem qualitativa dos dados. Para a coleta dos dados foi utilizada a entrevista semi-estruturada com os 10 cirurgiões dentistas que trabalham na equipe de saúde bucal da ESF do município de Ribeirão Preto. As entrevistas gravadas e transcritas na íntegra. Para interpretação dos dados nos baseamos na análise de conteúdo preconizada por BARDIN (1977). Com relação aos resultados da caracterização do sujeito, constatamos que todos os CDs entrevistados egressaram da graduação há mais de 14 anos, com média de 24,4 anos de formação acadêmica. Com relação à idade, os profissionais, possuem média de 46,2 anos, a maioria é do sexo masculino e também casado. Eles possuem uma média de tempo de trabalho na ESF de 29,9 meses, todos os profissionais possuem especialização e somente um entrevistado não possui formação voltada para a área de Saúde Pública. Da análise das entrevistas realizadas com os cirurgiões dentistas da Estratégia Saúde da Família emergiram dois temas principais: o trabalho em equipe e as competências profissionais para o trabalho na ESF. Estes dois temas são de grande importância para o cirurgião dentista, para que este possa proporcionar uma elevação dos níveis de saúde da população, principalmente da saúde bucal. / PINTO, C. C. M. Team work and Professional competence in the Family Health Strategy: the surgeon dentists perceptions. 2008. 121f. Dissertation (Master Degree). Faculdade de Medicina de Ribeirão Preto-USP. Oral health must be understood as integral and inseparable part of the individuals general health and is related to sanitary conditions, eating, housing, work, education, income, transport, leisure, freedom, and access to land, health services and information (BRASIL, 1993). The surgeon dentist is an essential actor in this scenario, responsible for providing adequate standard levels of oral health to the population of a country, region or local, seeking to elaborate strategies and actions that allow the construction of collective health. This investigation aims to analyze the surgeon dentists perception regarding the Oral Health Group (ESB) on the Family Health Strategy (ESF) in Ribeirão Preto, SP, Brazil. Interviews will be fully recorded and transcribed. Data interpretation is based on content analysis by Bardin (1977). Regarding the subjects characterization, we verified that all the SD interviewed are graduated for more than 14 years, with an average of 24,4 years. The professionals are, in average, 46,2 years old and the majority is male and married. They work for an average of 29,9 months in the ESF, all have specialization and only one interviewed is not specialized in Public Health. From the analysis of their reports emerged two main themes: team work and professional competences for the work at ESF. These two themes are of great importance for Surgeon dentists, so they can support improved health levels for the population, especially oral health.

Influência da orientação telefônica sobre os resultados da automonitorização glicêmica de pacientes com diabetes mellitus gestacional / Influence of telephone advice on the results of blood glucose monitoring in patients with gestational diabetes

Sousa, Ana Maria da Silva 06 November 2014 (has links)
A Diabetes Mellitus Gestacional é definida como intolerância à glicose durante a gestação, excluídos os casos de diabetes pré-gestacional. A telemedicina tem sido citada como ferramenta útil para proporcionar melhor qualidade à saúde de portadores de doenças crônicas. Objetivo: analisar a influência da orientação telefônica feita por um profissional de saúde sobre os resultados da automonitorização glicêmica em pacientes com diabetes mellitus gestacional. Método: estudo randomizado controlado-cego, longitudinal, com gestantes diagnosticadas com diabetes gestacional, acompanhadas no Setor de Endocrinopatias e Gestação da Clínica Obstétrica do Hospital das Clínicas da Faculdade de Medicina da Universidade de São Paulo atendidas no período de agosto de 2012 a maio de 2014. O diagnostico de DMG foi realizado por meio de glicemia de jejum e teste de tolerância à glicose de 75 gramas. As pacientes foram convidadas a participar da pesquisa após receberem instruções de uma equipe multiprofissional. Foram alocadas, de acordo com a randomização em dois grupos: Grupo 1 (receberiam ligação telefônica três dias após as orientações multiprofissionais, n=122) e grupo 2 (não receberiam ligação telefônica n= 122),. A enfermeira ligou para as pacientes e aplicou questionário sobre manuseio do aparelho para verificação da glicemia capilar, dieta, horário de aferições, desconforto e dificuldade em realizar a automonitorização glicêmica. Foram analisados os valores glicêmicos por meio das porcentagens de valores alterados, de hiperglicemia, de hipoglicemia e da média glicêmica nos sete primeiros dias após a participação no grupo multiprofissional. O número de aferições glicêmicas e as respostas ao questionário aplicado durante o contato telefônico também foram analisados. Resultados: Não houve diferença estatisticamente significativa entre os grupos quanto à cor, idade, presença de outras doenças clínicas maternas e quanto ao tipo de teste usado para diagnóstico de diabetes mellitus gestacional. Analisando os valores da glicemia capilar, o grupo que recebeu orientações telefônicas apresentou menor porcentagem de valores alterados (p= 0,001), menor frequência de hiperglicemia (p= 0,002) e maior número de aferições da glicemia capilar (p= 0,001). Conclusões: O contato telefônico influenciou significativamente o número de aferições da glicemia capilar e a frequência de resultados alterados, especialmente na hiperglicemia, sugerindo ser essa ferramenta útil na melhora da atenção a gestantes portadoras de diabetes gestacional / Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (GDM) is defined as glucose intolerance during pregnancy, excluding cases of pre-gestational diabetes. Telemedicine has been cited as useful tool to provide better quality health care for patients with chronic diseases. Objective: To analyze the influence of telephone advice, by a health care professional, on the results of blood glucose monitoring in patients with gestational diabetes. Method: A randomized controlled blind trial, in pregnant women diagnosed with gestational diabetes, attended in Setor de Endocrinopatias e Gestação da Clínica Obstétrica do Hospital das Clínicas da Faculdade de Medicina da Universidade de São Paulo was carried out from August 2012 to May 2014 The diagnosis of GDM was made by means of fasting glucose and glucose tolerance test 75 grams. Patients were invited to participate in the study after receiving instructions from a multidisciplinary team. According to randomization, patients were allocated into two groups: Group 1 (receive phone call three days after multidisciplinary instructions, n = 122) and group 2 (not receive phone call, n = 122). The nurse called the patient and applied questionnaire on handling the device for checking blood glucose, diet, time of measurements, discomfort and difficulty in performing the blood glucose monitoring. Glycemic values were analyzed by means of the percentage of abnormal values, hyperglycemia, hypoglycemia and glycemic average in the first seven days after participation in the multidisciplinary group. The number of glucose measurements and the questionnaire answer questionnaire were also analyzed. Results: There was no statistically significant difference between groups regarding race, age, presence of other maternal medical illnesses and the type of test used to diagnose gestational diabetes. Analyzing the glycemic values , a group that received telephone guidelines showed lower percentage of abnormal values (p = 0.001), lower incidence of hyperglycemia (p = 0.002) and greater number of measurements of blood glucose (p = 0.001) Conclusion: The telephone contact significantly influenced the number of measurements of blood glucose and the frequency of abnormal results, especially in hyperglycemia, suggesting that this is useful tool in improving attention to pregnant women with gestational diabetes
