ABSTRACT
RESUMO Objetivo Identificar a produção de conhecimento sobre a Saúde do Trabalhador na Estratégia de Saúde da Família (ESF), com base na literatura científica nacional. Método Revisão integrativa de literatura. A busca foi realizada em outubro de 2019 e atualizada em abril de 2020, nas seguintes bases de dados: Literatura Latino-Americana e do Caribe em Ciências da Saúde (LILACS) e Scientific Electronic Library Online (SciELO), por meio do portal da Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde (BVS). Resultados Foram encontradas 754 publicações, nas quais se obteve a amostra final de 19 artigos. A análise culminou na construção de três categorias: Ações voltadas para a Educação Permanente em Saúde; Condições ambientais e a sobrecarga de trabalho; e Adoecimento e sobrecarga mental e emocional de trabalhadores. Conclusão e implicações para a prática A inserção da linha de cuidado da saúde do trabalhador na ESF ainda é frágil, tanto no que diz respeito às ações voltadas para o trabalhador da ESF como aos demais trabalhadores do território. A escassez de estudos aponta para a necessidade de ampliação de iniciativas profissionais e gestoras que consigam atender às necessidades de profissionais do território, bem como aqueles que trabalham nas unidades.

ABSTRACT Objective To identify the production of knowledge about Worker's Health in the Family Health Strategy (FHS) based on the national scientific literature. Method Integrative literature review. The search was carried out in October 2019 and updated in April 2020, in the following databases: Latin American and Caribbean Health Sciences Literature (LILACS) and Scientific Electronic Library Online (SciELO), through the Virtual Health Library (VHL) portal. Results 754 publications were found in which the final sample of 19 articles was obtained. The analysis culminated in the construction of three categories: Actions aimed at Continuing Education; Environmental conditions and work overload and; Illness and mental and emotional overload of workers. Conclusion and implications for practice The insertion of the line of health care for workers in the FHS is still fragile, both with regard to actions aimed at FHS workers and for other workers in the territory. The scarcity of studies points to the need to expand professional and managerial initiatives that are able to meet the needs of professionals in the territory, as well as those who work in the units.

Lamotrigine is indicated according to several recent treatment guidelines as a first-line medication for the treatment of bipolar depression. However, its efficacy in acute bipolar depression has not been well established. In the present naturalistic study, patients with bipolar depression (n = 20), predominantly bipolar type I, were treated with lamotrigine in addition to their prior treatment for 8 weeks. The Young Mania Rating Scale (YMRS), 17-item Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression (HAM-D-17), and Clinical Global Impressions-Bipolar Disorder (CGI-BD) scale were applied at baseline, week 4, and week 8. With regard to the primary measure of efficacy, mean total HAM-D-17 scores significantly decreased (p < .01) at the end of treatment. Eight patients (40%) exhibited a positive response (i.e., at least a 50% reduction of baseline scores). Additionally, eight (40%) and 11 (55%) patients exhibited complete remission, reflected by HAM-D-17 and CGI-BP scores, respectively. Episodes of switching to mania or hypomania occurred in five patients (25%). No skin rash or any other significant adverse events were reported. Our results indicate that the addition of lamotrigine to a mood stabilizer can be useful in the treatment of acute depressive episodes in bipolar I disorder.
