ABSTRACT

To compare the in vitro antiparasitic activity of aqueous extracts from Ziziphus joazeiro leaves and stem bark against Trypanosoma cruzi, Leishmania braziliensis, and Leishmania infantum, as well as to evaluate its cytotoxicity in mammalian cells, in addition to identifying the chemical composition of the extracts. Methods: Ziziphus joazeiro leaf and stem bark aqueous extracts were prepared by cold extraction maceration and subjected to ultra-efficient liquid chromatography coupled to a quadrupole/time of flight system. The susceptibility assays used Trypanosoma cruzi CL-B5 strains and promastigote forms of Leishmania braziliensis and Leishmania infantum for antiparasitic activity of the extracts. Moreover, mammalian fibroblasts NCTC clone 929 were used for cytotoxicity analysis. Results: Terpenoid compounds, flavonoids and phenolic acid were identified in extracts. The stem bark aqueous extracts presented more significant results in terms of antiparasitic activity compared with the leaf aqueous extracts, especially against Leishmania braziliensis and Leishmania infantum promastigote forms with an IC

ABSTRACT

Objetivo: verificar a importância que a equipe multidisciplinar de Unidade de Terapia Intensiva (UTI) e os cirurgiões-dentistas atribuem à integração de um cirurgião-dentista a essa equipe. Adicionalmente, investigar o protocolo de higienização bucal aplicado em pacientes internados em UTL Metodologia: O questionário foi aplicado em 58 profissionais que atuam diretamente na UTI: 38 técnicos em enfermagem, 08 médicos, 08 enfermeiros, 04 fisioterapeutas e 29 cirurgiões-dentistas que não atuam em equipe de UTL Após o recebimento dos formulários respondidos, os resultados foram tabulados e os percentuais relativos a cada questão foram calculados. Resultados: 57% da equipe multidisciplinar e 96% dos profissionais da odontologia responderam que é importante a presença do cirurgião-dentista neste setor. Sobre a influência do cirurgião-dentista na melhora do quadro clínico dos pacientes, foi verificado que 55% dos integrantes da equipe multidisciplinar concordaram que o cirurgião-dentista, atuando no atendimento a pacientes hospitalizados em UTI, resultaria em uma melhora no quadro clínico do paciente; e 100% dos voluntários concordaram que a higiene bucal eficiente é importante em pacientes internados em UTL Conclusão: Apesar da higiene bucal ser considerada fator importante em pacientes internados na UTI por todos os profissionais avaliados, não há unanimidade no reconhecimento da importância e do papel do cirurgião-dentista como integrante da equipe de profissionais da área da saúde que atuam em UTL Adicionalmente, os métodos de controle de biofilme atualmente usados como protocolo de higienização bucal nas UTls abordadas não foram os mais adequados.


Objective: The aim was to analysis the importance of multidisciplinary members of Intensive Care Unit (ICU) and dentists assign to the integration of dentist into that group. Additionally, evaluate the oral hygiene protocol used in ICU patients. Methods: The questionnaire was applied in 58 staff who directly work on the ICU: 38 nursing technicians, 08 doctors, 08 nurses, 04 physiotherapists and 29 dentists that they was not members staff of ICU. After ali volunteers completed questionnaire, then the results were analyzed and the percentages for each question were calculated. Results: 57% of the multidisciplinary member and 96% of dentists agree that it is important the presence of dentists in this group. Considering the positive influence of dentists on improvement of clinical case of the ICU patient, it was verified that 55% of multidisciplinary members staff agree that the dentist on ICU member staff will result an improvement of the patient clinical case. Additionally, 100% volunteers agree that efficient oral hygiene is important for patients on ICU care. Conclusion: Even though oral hygiene was considered important in ICU patients by ali professionals. There was no agreement on recognizing the importance of the dentist on multidisciplinary group of ICU. Additionally, the proto-cal of biofilm control currently used on ICUs was not the most appropriate.
