Syfte: Att undersöka vårdpersonalens känslor i mötet med våldsutsatta kvinnor inom akutsjukvården. Metod: Kvalitativ studie med halvstrukturerad intervjumetod. Tretton sjuksköterskor och undersköterskor inom akutsjukvården blev intervjuade om mötet med våldsutsatta kvinnor genom tio halvstrukturerade frågor. Resultat: Vårdpersonalen saknade kunskap om våld i nära relationer och kände sig inte beredda att möta en kvinna utsatt för våld trots framtagna riktlinjer och handlingsplaner. Mötet med våldsutsatta kvinnor väckte många starka känslor som ilska och frustration, men också medkänsla och empati. Frågan om våldsutsatthet upplevdes som komplicerad att ställa av vårdpersonalen. Faktorer som tidsbrist och bristen på avskildhet försvårade arbetet. Vårdpersonalen ansåg att det var akutsjukvårdens ansvar att ställa frågan, men det var oklart vem som bar det yttersta ansvaret. Slutsats: För att kvinnor utsatta för våld ska få ett gott omhändertagande behöver vårdpersonalen inom akutsjukvården mer utbildning och tid. Det är av betydelse att arbetsledningen eftersträvar ett öppet klimat för diskussion kring dessa frågor och markerar att våld i nära relationer är en lika viktig fråga som andra medicinska tillstånd inom akutsjukvården. / Objective: To investigate health care professionals’ emotions in the meeting with women who experience intimate partner violence within emergency care. Methods: Qualitative study with semi-structured interview methodology. Thirteen nurses and nursing assistants within the emergency care shared their thoughts in interviews about the meeting with abused women through 10 semi-structured questions. Results: Health care professionals lacked knowledge about intimate partner violence and did not feel prepared to meet an abused woman despite developed guidelines and instructions. The meeting induced many strong emotions such as anger and frustration, but also compassion and empathy. The issue was perceived as complicated by the health care professionals. Factors such as lack of time and privacy hampered their work. They felt that it was the emergency care’s responsibility to address the issue, but with different views about whose obligation it was to raise the question. Conclusion: To provide good care for abused women, the health care professionals in the emergency care need more training and time. It is important that management encourages discussion and clarifies that intimate partner violence is just as essential as any other medical issues in the emergency care.

Readiness of the urgent reception to mass disasters This thesis is dedicated to the readiness of the urgent reception to mass disasters. It deals with the history, evolution and the current state of the urgent reception, both in the Czech Republic in the first place and in the world. Within the scope of this thesis I focus mainly on the work scope of the urgent receptions in dependence to their structure, equipment and their actual preparedness to deal with mass accidents. I focus besides other things on technical equipment of the urgent receptions, which is in frames of the Czech Republic very heterogeneous, but totally crucial to handle possible mass accident. A very import aspect is the matter of education and further training of the medical employees on all levels. It concerns not only medical positions, but also nurses and auxiliary staff. The question of the conditions severity of the admitted patients, their classification according to these conditions and transparent processing of the information about them cannot be passed over. Furthermore the thesis discusses emergency medicine as a discipline and the direction it should, in my opinion, further be heading in order to improve the functioning of the present system of pre-hospital and hospital emergency care. Urgent receptions in the Czech Republic represent a relatively new thing, which results into certain ambivalence of their concept and structure. Each urgent reception is somehow original and adapted to the requirements of the founder and the local situation. There is one thing the urgent receptions have in common, overload with patients who fall into the competence of practitioners. This is associated with the financial loss-making of these departments within the medical facilities. This, especially in the case of the private hospitals, leads to a reluctance of the founder to invest to the urgent reception. In this thesis I mention legal framework, contingency planning in the Czech Republic, contingency plans, their content purpose and type plan with its importance for solving crisis events. Another plan that is resolved in my thesis and that has crucial importance especially, for urgent receptions is the trauma plan of medical facility whose application into practice in the Czech Republic in many health care facilities is very problematic. And the practice of the trauma plan activation itself is, according to my research, the prerogative of only a very small amount of medical facilities.

A capacidade médica e da equipe de enfermagem para a passagem do cateter venoso central se explica pelo fato dos riscos existentes na realização desse procedimento. As complicações relacionadas a cateter venoso central incluem punção de artéria carótida, pneumotórax, hemotórax, tamponamento cardíaco, infecções, embolia e hidrotórax. Objetivo: O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar o procedimento de passagem de cateter venoso central realizado pela equipe médica em pacientes atendidos em sala de emergência. Metodologia: Trata-se de estudo clínico epidemiológico, transversal, descritivo e observacional com 104 pacientes que deram entrada na sala de emergência adulto do pronto-socorro referenciado de um hospital público do interior de São Paulo, caracterizado como hospital terciário, onde realiza atendimento ao paciente pelo Sistema Único de Saúde.

Para as avaliações foi utilizado um instrumento de coleta de dados baseado nos padrões de conformidade do ministério da saúde para a passagem de cateter venoso central, dados do prontuário eletrônico do paciente e resultados de cultura de ponta de cateter e hemocultura central e periférica dos pacientes que foram submetidos ao procedimento de cateter venoso central. Resultados e Discussão: Foram analisados 104 pacientes com idade variando entre 26 a 87 anos, sendo 51,9% do sexo masculino. Destes pacientes, 53 (51%) eram do município de Botucatu e 72,1% da especialidade clínica, A indicação do uso de cateter venoso central se deu em sua maioria por droga vasoativa (58,7%) seguida de gravidade (43,3%). Houve associação significante entre idade e complicações durante a passagem de cateter venoso central (OR=0,94, p=0,033). A chance de complicação em função do número de procedimento foi menor em homens bem como a chance de óbito. A chance de infecção em função ao número de procedimentos foi menor nos homens. A chance de óbito foi significativa menor em função ao número de procedimentos em relação a especialidade cirúrgica quando comparada com a clínica A chance de pacientes com trauma evoluírem a óbito foi de 20 vezes maior e de pacientes graves 13 vezes maior. Em pacientes graves. Sabe-se que o uso do cateter venoso central não é isento de complicações. Tradicionalmente, os dispositivos são inseridos por meio de técnica de reparos anatômicos externos na qual a visualização e a palpação de reparos anatômicos servem de referência para se inferir o melhor local para punção. No entanto, essa técnica é sujeita a falhas, principalmente por conta de variações anatômicas na população e também por falta de protocolo pré-estabelecido. Conclusão: Perante todos os achados do estudo, foi desenvolvido, um protocolo de passagem de acesso venoso central que será apresentado a equipe de infecção hospitalar do Hospital das Clínicas e posteriormente implantado no pronto-socorro para que os profissionais médicos sigam um padrão de execução do procedimento de passagem de CVC. / Introduction: Emergency and emergency services aim to reduce morbidity and mortality and disabling sequelae. The medical and nursing team's ability to pass the central venous catheter is explained by the fact that there are risks involved in performing this procedure. Complications related to central venous catheters include carotid artery puncture, pneumothorax, hemothorax, cardiac tamponade, infections, embolism and hydrothorax. Objective: The objective of this study was to evaluate the procedure of central venous catheter passage performed by the medical team in patients seen in an emergency room. Methodology: This is a cross-sectional, descriptive, and observational epidemiological study of 104 patients admitted to the emergency room of the referenced emergency room of a public hospital in the interior of São Paulo, characterized as a tertiary hospital managed by the Sistema Único The data collection was performed in the period from 08/01/2016 to 01/12/2016 by the researcher and by five nurses previously trained contemplating the shifts of day and night work. For the evaluations, a data collection instrument was used following the compliance standards of the ministry of health and the pre-established protocol of the University of the State of São Paulo for the passage of a central venous catheter, data from the patient's electronic medical record, and results of Culture of the catheter and central and peripheral blood cultures of the patients who underwent the central venous catheter procedure. Results and Discussion: A total of 104 patients, ranging from 26 to 87 years old, were analyzed, 51.9% of whom were male. Of these patients, 53 (51%) were from the city of Botucatu and 72.1% from the clinical specialty. The indication for the use of central venous catheter was mostly vasoactive (58.7%) followed by severity (43, 3%). There was a significant association between age and complications during the passage of a central venous catheter (OR = 0.94, p = 0.033). The chance of complication due to the number of procedure was lower in men as well as the chance of death. The chance of infection due to the number of procedures was lower in men. The chance of death was significantly lower due to the number of procedures compared to the surgical specialty when compared to the clinic. The chance of patients with trauma evolving to death was 20 times higher and that of severe patients 13 times greater. In severe patients. It is known that the use of the central venous catheter is not free of complications. Traditionally, the devices are inserted through an external anatomical repair technique in which the visualization and palpation of anatomical repairs serve as a reference to infer the best place for puncture. However, this technique is subject to failures, mainly due to anatomical variations in the population and also due to lack of pre-established protocol. Conclusion: In view of all the findings of the study, a central venous access protocol was developed as a product that will be presented to the hospital infection team of the Hospital das Clínicas and later implanted in the emergency room so that medical professionals follow a pattern of Application of procedure.

Exercising their profession, nursing staff in health facilities may commit a fatal mistake in tense moments in terms of time. An illustrious example may be the admission of a higher number of casualties after an emergency event. So that to prevent these negative consequences, emphasis is put on the readiness of the entire health system from the headquarters to individual care providers. Special attention is also paid to trauma planning, because especially in complex cases greater demands are developed on the functioning and rapid succession of individual operations of medical care, along with observing all approved medical principles, of course. To verify the readiness and to reveal any shortcomings and reserves tactical exercises are held. The Krnov hospital also participated in that kind of training with activating the trauma plan. Another workplace involved was also the radio-diagnostic department. A simulated bus accident was to reveal whether the individual workplaces could provide adequate examinations and treatment. The thesis is divided into several parts. In the introductory section it is explained in brief how the health system is organized. To understand the text, it was necessary to define the necessary terminology and to mention the binding, legal legislation for emergency management authorities at all levels that affect the operations and carry out supervision on medical institutions. Gradually, the theoretical part presents trauma plans, sorting out casualties in the place of an emergency event, and specific exercises in the Krnov hospital that were announced and carried out in the early afternoon, when the hospital was fully filled with staff members. In the research part the analysis of a real accident that occurred in a late evening about a year later is made. Time demandingness of individual examinations is evaluated. Factual results are compared with the data obtained from simulated exercises. In the final part I tried to assess the quality and topicality of the trauma plan elaborated by our facility as well as the internal trauma plan of the RDG department and to propose possible changes and improvements.

Bakgrund: Centralisering av sjukvård har bidragit till färre antal akutmottagningar. Antalet ambulanstransporter har blivit fler och avstånden till sjukhus längre, vilket ställer höga krav på ambulanspersonalens kompetens. I glesbygd ställs ambulanspersonalen ofta inför utmaningar då för få resurser finns att tillgå. Syfte: att beskriva sjuksköterskors upplevelser av att prehospitalt vårda patienter med kritiska tillstånd i glesbygd. Metod: Nio legitimerade sjuksköterskor som arbetade på två olika ambulansstationer belägna i glesbygd i Norra Sverige intervjuades med semistrukturerade intervjuer. Den transkriberade texten analyserades med kvalitativ innehållsanalys. Resultat: Analysen av intervjuerna resulterade i fem kategorier: Att långa avstånd förlänger vårdtiden, Att bristande resurser försvårar omhändertagandet, Att känna sig ensam och otillräcklig, Att trygghet i teamet stärker omvårdnaden av patienten, Att utbildning och utveckling bidrar till ökad trygghet. Sjuksköterskorna i ambulans i glesbygdstudien upplevde att det var påfrestande att stå ensam med stora och för patienten livsavgörande beslut. De upplevde att arbetet krävde mycket av dem som sjuksköterskor då de fick vårda patienter med kritiska tillstånd under en lång tid på grund av långa avstånd och samtidigt hade för få resurser att tillgå. Vidare upplevdes arbetet som utmanande och deltagarna beskrev att de alltid försökte lösa situationerna efter de förutsättningar som fanns. Ett väl fungerande samarbete med kollegor beskrevs vara viktigt. Sjuksköterskorna beskrev även att det var viktigt att ha en bred kompetens inom akutsjukvård. Slutsats: Prehospital vård i glesbygd och omhändertagande av patienter med kritiska tillstånd är utmanande. Sjuksköterskor bör besitta bred kompetens och utbildning inom akutsjukvård kan främja omvårdnaden i komplexa situationer. Utvecklingsområden har identifierats under studiens process och ytterligare forskning inom området är önskvärt för vidare kliniska implikationer.

Introdução: Manaus dispõe de um Serviço de Atendimento Móvel de Urgência (SAMU) fluvial que atende a população que reside em comunidades ribeirinhas dos rios Negro e Amazonas. Tem-se observado várias iniciativas de atendimento pré-hospitalar (APH) com uso desse tipo de transporte; no entanto, não foram encontradas na literatura informações sobre esses serviços, perfil dos usuários e fatores associados a desfechos indesejáveis do atendimento. Objetivo: Caracterizar o perfil dos usuários, aspectos do atendimento do SAMU fluvial de Manaus e identificar fatores relacionados ao agravamento no APH fluvial. Método: Estudo descritivo correlacional realizado em duas etapas. Na primeira etapa, a coleta de informações foi retrospectiva e teve como fonte os registros dos atendimentos realizados pelo SAMU fluvial de Manaus de 2009 a 2015. Na segunda etapa, a coleta de dados foi prospectiva; indivíduos com 15 anos ou mais, atendidos pelo SAMU fluvial no período de seis meses (janeiro a junho de 2016), tiveram informações coletadas desde a chamada na Central de Regulação até a chegada à base fluvial. Pacientes encaminhados para hospitais tiveram a coleta de informações estendida até a saída hospitalar. Testes de associação foram aplicados considerando as características do atendimento e usuário perante o agravamento do paciente, identificado por meio das mudanças do Rapid Emergency Medicine Score (REMS) entre o atendimento inicial e final do SAMU fluvial. Resultados: Entre 2009 e 2015, o SAMU fluvial de Manaus realizou 2.002 atendimentos, a maior parte em comunidades do Rio Negro e próximas da base fluvial. A grande maioria dos atendidos pelo SAMU fluvial foi removida para Manaus (92%), variando o tipo de embarcação mais frequentemente utilizada no transporte ao longo dos anos e com ajustes na tripulação da modalidade Unidade de Suporte Avançado (USA) após 2015. Foi baixa a frequência de procedimentos nos atendimentos (média 1,5 procedimento), porém o acesso venoso foi realizado em quase todos os usuários (97,8%). Houve grande variabilidade dos tempos de APH. As médias do tempo de resposta (84 minutos) e total de APH fluvial (172 minutos) foram bastante elevadas. A maioria dos pacientes removidos foi encaminhada para hospital (44,9%) ou serviço de pronto atendimento (37,1%). A frequência de homens e mulheres atendidos foi semelhante e os usuários com menos de 35 anos predominaram. As causas mais frequentes dos atendimentos foram as relacionadas a sintomas, sinais e achados anormais e causas externas de morbidade e mortalidade. Os parâmetros fisiológicos e o valor médio do REMS inicial, 2,7 (dp = 3,6), indicaram baixo risco de morte dos pacientes. No entanto, a mortalidade hospitalar dos internados foi de 8,7%. Dos pacientes transportados pelo SAMU fluvial, 68,5% mantiveram o quadro clínico, 18,0% pioraram e 13,5% melhoraram durante o atendimento. Houve associação entre piora e local de destino dos usuários (p=0,037), também com as ocorrências relacionadas a contato com serpentes venenosas (p= 0,039) e dor aguda (p= 0,005). Conclusão: No geral, os resultados mostraram peculiaridades do SAMU fluvial de Manaus em relação a serviços terrestres que necessitam ser consideradas no planejamento, implementação e avaliação do APH fluvial. / Introduction: Manaus has a fluvial Mobile Emergency Care Service (SAMU) that serves the population who lives in riverside communities of Negro and Amazon rivers. Several prehospital care initiatives (APH) have been observed regarding this type of transportation. However, information on these services, users\' profiles and factors associated with undesirable outcomes were not found in the literature. Objective: To characterize the profile of the users and aspects of Manaus fluvial SAMU and to identify factors related to the worsening in fluvial APH. Method: Descriptive, correlational study carried out in two stages. In the first stage, the information collection was retrospective and was based on the records of the services performed by Manaus fluvial SAMU from 2009 to 2015. In the second stage, data collection was prospective. Individuals aged 15 years and older attended by fluvial SAMU in the six-month period (January to June 2016) had information collected from the call to the Regulation Center until arrival at the fluvial base. Patients referred to hospitals had information collection extended until hospital discharge. Association tests were applied considering the characteristics of care and user before the patient\'s worsening, identified through the changes of the Rapid Emergency Medicine Score (REMS) from the initial care until the final care by fluvial SAMU. Results: From 2009 to 2015, Manaus fluvial SAMU carried out 2,002 visits, mostly in communities of Rio Negro and near the fluvial base. The vast majority of people served by the fluvial SAMU were removed to Manaus (92%). The type of boat most frequently used has changed over the years. Additionally, there were adjustments to the Advanced Support Unit (USA) crew after 2015. The frequency of procedures occurred during management was low (mean 1.5 procedure), but venous access was performed in almost all patients (97.8%). There was great variability of APH times. The mean response time (84 minutes) and total fluvial APH (172 minutes) were quite high. The majority of patients removed were referred to hospital (44.9%) or emergency care (37.1%). The frequency of men and women attended was similar and users less than 35 years old predominated. The most frequent causes of the visits were related to \"symptoms, signs and abnormal findings\" and \"external causes of morbidity and mortality\". The physiological parameters and the mean value of the initial REMS, 2.7 (SD = 3.6), indicated a low risk of death related to the patients. However, in- hospital mortality was 8.7%. Considering the patients transported by fluvial SAMU, 68.5% maintained the clinical presentation, 18.0% worsened and 13.5% improved during the care. There was an association between worsening and destination of the users (p = 0.037), as well as occurrences related to contact with venomous snakes (p = 0.039) and acute pain (p = 0.005). Conclusion: In general, the results showed peculiarities of Manaus fluvial SAMU related to terrestrial services that need to be considered in the planning, implementation and evaluation of fluvial APH.

CoordenaÃÃo de AperfeiÃoamento de Pessoal de NÃvel Superior / Este estudo, descritivo, teve como objetivo elaborar uma proposta para organizaÃÃo do Sistema Estadual de UrgÃncia e EmergÃncia no estado do CearÃ-Brasil, baseado na implantaÃÃo de serviÃos de atendimento prÃ-hospitalar de urgÃncia e emergÃncia. PropÃe o desenho de regionalizaÃÃo dos serviÃos na Ãtica do atendimento prÃ-hospitalar com Ãnfase na integralidade da atenÃÃo e integraÃÃo dos serviÃos, da qualificaÃÃo e da humanizaÃÃo da atenÃÃo. Com base nos dados do Datasus, e IBGE, ano 2003 e de acordo com o estabelecido pela Portaria GM-MS 2048/2003, foram definidos 12 pÃlos regionais de urgÃncia e emergÃncia com o mesmo nÃmero de centrais de regulaÃÃo (11 a serem implantadas). SÃo necessÃrias 133 ambulÃncias de suporte bÃsico (USB) e 28 ambulÃncias de suporte avanÃado (USA). O pessoal necessÃrio serÃ: 396 mÃdicos, 396 enfermeiros, 737 auxiliares/tÃcnico de enfermagem, 660 condutores socorristas, 11 farmacÃuticos, 110 telefonistas, entre outros. Foi analisado o quantitativo de internaÃÃes realizadas nos 20 hospitais pÃlos em relaÃÃo a intervalos de distÃncia do local da residÃncia. A ocupaÃÃo dos leitos à em sua maioria feita pelos residentes dos municÃpios onde o hospital està localizado. Com base nos parÃmetros do Ato Portaria n 1101/GM-MS e de acordo com o agrupamento pÃlo-regional sugerido foi analisado o quantitativo de leitos disponÃveis, verificou-se que o nÃmero de leitos à insuficiente, sendo mais preocupante a situaÃÃo dos leitos de UTI. Quanto aos tipos de procedimentos de urgÃncia e emergÃncia, na comparaÃÃo entre os pÃlos, por freqÃÃncia, existe maior concentraÃÃo nas internaÃÃes para realizaÃÃo de partos, cesarianas e curetagem pÃs-aborto. Sugere-se que a implantaÃÃo seja feita de forma gradual com prioridade para as regiÃes mais desassistidas. Na repactuaÃÃo da ocupaÃÃo dos leitos dos hospitais pÃlo-regionais deverà haver definiÃÃo clara de um percentual eqÃitativo para os tipos de procedimentos por internaÃÃo a serem utilizados pelos moradores dos municÃpios da Ãrea de cobertura regional, com definiÃÃo de um âportfÃlioâ padronizado de serviÃos hospitalares, almejando auto-suficiÃncia do atendimento de urgÃncia e emergÃncia a nÃvel micro e macrorregional de saÃde no estado do CearÃ. / This study, descriptive, aimed to develop a proposal for organizing the State System of Urgency and Emergency in the state of CearÃ-Brazil, based on the deployment of the prehospital emergency care. Proposes the design of regional services in the optics of prehospital care with emphasis on the completeness of care and integration of services, qualification and the humanization of attention. Based on data from DATASUS and IBGE, year 2003, in conformity with a Minister of Health Order n 2048/2003-GM-MS, were defined 12 regional clusters of urgency/emergency, with the same number of centrals regulation (11 to be implanted), 133 ambulances are needed for basic support (USB in portuguese) and 28 ambulances for advanced support (USA in portuguese). The necessary staff will be: 396 physicians, 396 nurses, 737 assistant/technical nursing, 660 ambulance drivers, 11 pharmacists, 110 telephone operators, among others. It was analyzed the admissions quantitative made in 20 poles hospitals in relation to the intervals of distance from the place of domicile. The occupation of beds is, in its majority, made by people of the municipality where the hospital is located. Based on the features of the Act Order of a Minister of Health n 1101/GM-MS and according to the pole-regional grouping suggested, an analysis was made to verify the amount of beds available. It was obeyed that the number of beds is insufficient, more worrying is the situation of the ICU beds. As for the types of procedures of emergency, in the comparison between the poles, by frequency, there is greater focus on admissions for carrying out deliveries, cesarean sections and curettage post-abortion. It is suggested that the implementation of services should be done gradually with priority to the most underprivileged regions. In the re agreement of occupation of the beds in poleregional hospitals there should be clear a fair percentage for the types of procedures to be used by residents of the municipalities in regional coverage area, with definition of a standardized portfolio of hospital services, targeting self-sufficiency of emergency care at micro and macrorregional health in the state of Ceara.
