Dermatite associada à incontinência e os fatores associados: estudo de prevalência em um Centro de Terapia Intensiva / Incontinence-associated dermatitis and associated factors: prevalence study in an Intensive Care Unit

Amanda Cristina Maria Aparecida Gonçalves Brandão 11 August 2017 (has links)
A Dermatite Associada à Incontinência (DAI) representa um grande desafio para os profissionais de saúde que prestam assistência aos pacientes no Centro de Terapia Intensiva. A ocorrência desta reação inflamatória da pele associada à umidade predispõe a pessoa à dor representando um impacto negativo na qualidade de vida dos pacientes, aumentam o tempo de internação hospitalar e consequentemente o custo do tratamento. Os objetivos do estudo foram: identificar e descrever as características sociodemográficas e clinicas dos pacientes com incontinência e daqueles com DAI internados em um Centro de Terapia Intensiva de um hospital privado; identificar os índices de prevalência pontual da incontinência e da DAI; descrever as características da DAI e os produtos usados para o cuidado da pele perineal dos pacientes; verificar a associação entre a presença da DAI e as variáveis demográficas e clínicas. Trata-se de um estudo transversal, descrito e analítico, quantitativo, aprovado pelo Comitê de Ética em Pesquisa. A coleta de dados aconteceu em um único dia, no Centro de Terapia Intensiva, com 93 participantes. A maioria deles (78,5%) tinha idade acima de 60 anos (média 72, DP 18,2), sexo feminino (50,5%), pele branca (80%). Dentre os diagnósticos médicos, as doenças do aparelho respiratório e circulatório representaram 29% e 19,4%, respectivamente. O tempo de internação médio foi de 18,3 dias (DP 24,4). A prevalência da incontinência urinária foi de 33,3% e a fecal, 51,6%. O cateter vesical estava sendo utilizado em 24,7% dos pacientes e a fralda em 66,7%.Quanto a eliminação das fezes, a maioria dos pacientes internados na UTI (83,3%) apresentou fezes semilíquidas e líquidas, com a ocorrência de diarreia em 20,4% dos pacientes. A prevalência pontual da DAI foi de 40,9% e a prevalência da DAI em pacientes incontinentes, 59,2%. O local onde a DAI apresentou maior prevalência nos pacientes incontinentes foi a UTI. O eritema da pele lidera a lista de manifestação mais prevalente (89,4%), seguida pela erosão (21,1%). A maioria (76,3%) das DAI ocorreu na região perianal, seguida pela região perineal (39,5%) e região interglútea (34,2%). A presença da DAI apresentou associação estatisticamente significante quanto à alteração do nível de consciência, uso de antibiótico, corticoide, jejum ou uso da via enteral para suporte nutricional, uso de tubo orotraqueal para oxigenação, restrição mecânica, presença da incontinência, frequência evacuatória, consistência das fezes, emprego de cateter vesical de demora e/ou fralda. Adotou-se película líquida em 40% dos pacientes para prevenção da DAI e em 47,3% para o tratamento. Empregou-se o limpador sem enxague em 36,8% dos pacientes com DAI. A prescrição de ao menos um produto preventivo não foi encontrada em 34,5% dos pacientes. Não houve prescrição de tratamento em 13,1% dos pacientes com DAI. Os resultados encontrados contribuem para o diagnóstico situacional da ocorrência da DAI. Este estudo poderá contribuir para a sistematização das práticas clínicas e adoção de protocolos assistenciais visando a qualidade e segurança do paciente / Incontinence-associated dermatitis (IAD) represents a significant health challenge for professionals who provide care to patients in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU). The occurrence of moisture-associated skin damage can cause pain with a negative impact on quality of life and can increase the length of hospital stay and the cost of treatment. The objectives of this study were to: identify and describe the sociodemographic and clinical characteristics of patients with incontinence and with IAD admitted to the ICU of a private hospital; Identify the prevalence rate of incontinence and IAD; Describe the characteristics of IAD and the perineal skin care products; Verify the association between the presence of IAD and the demographic and clinical variables. This cross sectional, descriptive, analytical, quantitative study was approved by a Research Ethics Committee. Data were collected on a single day, in the intensive care unit, totaling 93 patients. Most patients were female (50.5%), with white skin (80%) and mean age 72 +/- 18.2 years. Among medical diagnoses, respiratory and circulatory diseases accounted for 29%, and 19.4%, respectively. mean hospitalization time was 18.3 +/- 24.4 days. The overall prevalence of urinary incontinence was 33.3% and fecal in 51.6%. Urinary catheter was being used in 24.7% and diaper in 66.7% of the patients. Regarding stool elimination, the majority of patients admitted to the ICU (83.3%) had semi-liquid and liquid stools, with diarrhea occurring in 20.4% of the patients. The point prevalence of IAD was 40.9% and the prevalence of IAD in incontinent patients was 59.2%. The ICU was the site that DAI was most prevalent in incontinent patients. Erythema was the most common skin manifestation (89.4%), followed by erosion (21.1%). Most of the IAD (76.3%) occurred in the perianal region, followed by the perineal one (39.5%) and intergluteal area (34.2%). The presence of IAD was associated with the change in the level of consciousness, use of antibiotic, corticoid, fasting or enteral nutritional support, orotracheal tube, mechanical restriction, presence of incontinence, stools frequency and consistency, urinary catheter and / or diaper. Liquid film was used in 40% of patients for IAD prevention and 47.3% for treatment. The cleaner without rinsing was used in 36.8% of patients with IAD. Prescription of a preventive product was not found in 34.5% of patients. There was no prescription of treatment in 13.1% of patients with IAD. The results found contribute to the situational diagnosis of the occurrence of IAD. This study may contribute to the systematization of clinical practices and adoption of assistance protocols aiming at the quality and safety of the patient

La figure du couple machiavélique / The figure of Machiavellian couple

Belot Gondaud, Caroline 11 December 2014 (has links)
La figure du couple machiavélique, présente chez Shakespeare, Laclos, Barbey d'Aurevilly, Henry James, James M. Cain, entre autres, est étudiée selon une triple approche. La première approche, d'inspiration structurale, vise à dégager les éléments constitutifs de la figure et son scénario permanent. L’analyse conduite sur la base de cette approche confirme l'existence de deux matrices, l'une fondée sur le couple Macbeth, l'autre sur le couple de libertins des Liaisons dangereuses. La seconde approche, qui relève d'une démarche herméneutique, met en évidence le substrat biblique de la figure du couple machiavélique dans sa version shakespearienne, qui serait une réécriture du récit de la Chute de la Genèse. La version laclosienne du couple machiavélique serait pour sa part le marqueur de la dégradation des relations amoureuses dans leur conception post-courtoise. Enfin, la troisième approche est esthétique: elle vise à étudier la construction de la figure, son effet sur le lecteur, et sa valeur ajoutée par rapport à la figure canonique du Méchant. Elle s'attache aussi à définir l'esthétique du mal associée à la figure du couple machiavélique. / The figure of the Machiavellian couple, which appears in Shakespeare, Laclos, Barbey d’Aurevilly, Henry James, James M. Cain, among others, is studied through a three-fold approach. The first one is a structural one and aims at identifying the basic elements of the figure and its scenario. This approach confirms the existence of two matrix, one based on the couple of Macbeth and the other on the pair of libertines of Laclos’ novel Les Liaisons dangereuses. The second approach is interpretative and underlines the biblical basis of the figure of the Machiavellian couple in its Shakespearean version, which is a rewriting of the Fall of Adam and Eve while the couple of Laclos signals the deterioration of romantic relationships in a courtly meaning. The third approach deals with aesthetics and aims at studying the forms and poetics of the figure and its effect on the reader as well as its added value in relation to the “Canon figure” of the Villain. This third approach deals also with the aesthetics of Evil linked to the figure of the Machiavellian couple.

El texto completo de este trabajo no está disponible en el Repositorio Académico UPC por restricciones de la casa editorial donde ha sido publicado. / Background: In 1999, The International Study of Asthma and Allergies in Childhood (ISAAC) Phase One reported the prevalence of eczema symptoms in 715,033 children from 154 centers in 56 countries by using standardized epidemiologic tools. Objective: To update the world map of eczema prevalence after 5 to 10 years (ISAAC Phase Three) and include additional data from over 100 new centers. Methods: Cross-sectional surveys using the ISAAC questionnaire on eczema symptoms were completed by adolescents 13 to 14 years old and by parents of children 6 to 7 years old. Current eczema was defined as an itchy flexural rash in the past 12 months and was considered severe eczema if associated with 1 or more nights per week of sleep disturbance. Results: For the age group 6 to 7 years, data on 385,853 participants from 143 centers in 60 countries showed that the prevalence of current eczema ranged from 0.9% in India to 22.5% in Ecuador, with new data showing high values in Asia and Latin America. For the age group 13 to 14 years, data on 663,256 participants from 230 centers in 96 countries showed prevalence values ranging from 0.2% in China to 24.6% in Columbia with the highest values in Africa and Latin America. Current eczema was lower for boys than girls (odds ratio, 0.94 and 0.72 at ages 6 to 7 years and 13 to 14 years, respectively). Conclusion:ISAAC Phase Three provides comprehensive global data on the prevalence of eczema symptoms that is essential for public health planning. New data reveal that eczema is a disease of developing as well as developed countries. / Revisión por pares
