No contexto atual do tratamento da psicose, há uma ênfase em prol da utilização, quase exclusiva, de psicofármacos. Desse modo, apontamos para a importância de se considerar as repercussões desse uso de forma abusiva no processo de amadurecimento desse sujeito. Para tanto, a presente pesquisa bibliográfica utilizou as bases de dados do Scielo, NCBI, Fiocruz, Anvisa e OMS; além de bibliotecas online de universidades e de instituições psicanalíticas. Para as buscas, utilizamos descritores como: tratamento da psicose, processo de amadurecimento de Winnicott e uso excessivo de psicofármacos. Partimos da constituição e evolução do saber psiquiátrico e psicanalítico acerca da loucura. Em seguida, baseada na teoria do processo de amadurecimento do sujeito de Winnicott, é apresentado o panorama dessa teoria, de modo a fundamentar de que forma a medicação pode interferir nesse processo. Por fim, são discutidas as propostas de tratamento psicanalítico e psiquiátrico da psicose, dando destaque às consequências do uso abusivo dos medicamentos. Nesse sentido, o presente estudo aponta para a importância para uma prática ética dos profissionais que atuam com essa especificidade clínica. Além disso, ressaltamos o aspecto fundamental do uso comedido do psicofármaco para que ele possa auxiliar o sujeito na retomada desse processo. / In the current context of the treatment of psychosis, there is an emphasis in favor of use, almost exclusively, of psychotropic drugs. In this way, we have pointed out the importance of considering the impact of this abusive use in the ripening process of this subject. For both, the present research used the bibliographic data bases of the Scielo, NCBI, Fiocruz, Anvisa and WHO; in addition to online libraries of universities and psychoanalytics institutions. For the searches, we used descriptors such as: treatment of psychosis, ripening process of Winnicott and excessive use of psychotropic drugs. We depart from the constitution and evolution of psychiatric knowledge and psychoanalytic about insanity. Then, based on the theory of the maturation process of the subject of Winnicott, is presented the panorama of this theory, in order to substantiate that form the medications can interfere in this process. Finally, are discussed the proposals of psychoanalytic and psychiatric treatment of psychosis, highlighting the consequences of improper use of medicines. In this regard, the present study points to the importance for an ethical practice of professionals who works with this clinical specificity. In addition, we emphasize the fundamental aspect of cautious use of psychotropic drugs for which he may assist the subject in the resumption of the process.

Cultural diversity is affecting every aspect of society today and nurses need to be able to provide culturally competent care to remain relevant, and useful, within the current climate. Cultural immersion experiences are one of the teaching strategies that have been incorporated in an attempt to prepare nurses to be culturally competent in practice. However, there are only a few research studies that have been conducted, within the discipline of nursing, to empirically document the process and outcomes of a cultural immersion experience. Thus, the purpose of this study was to examine factors that facilitate a meaningful cultural immersion experience during a nursing program, as well as the short-term effects of such experiences on personal and professional growth and cultural awareness. The theoretical framework for the study was Leininger's theory of Culture Care Diversity and Universality.This study identified factors that were relevant and important in facilitating a meaningful cultural immersion experience within the categories of situational predetermining factors, modifying factors, and transitional factors (adjustment strategies). Situational predetermining factors identified as relevant included prior personal and professional experiences, prior attitudes and values, preparation before departure, andprior cultural knowledge. Modifying factors identified as relevant included the perception of living in another world, and being "stuck there," as well as the type of location, type of nursing experience, and people met on site. Transitional factors identified as relevant included social support from classmates and the use of coping responses such as humor, self-reliance, personal strength/faith, as well as adjustment of communication style to be able to talk with host-nationals. Finally, personal and professional growth and changes in cultural awareness were identified as outcomes of the immersion experience. Further research on the process and outcomes of cultural immersion is needed to continue to generate a base of nursing knowledge related to cultural immersion, and to assist nurse educators in the planning and execution of such experiences. / School of Nursing
