ABSTRACT

Abstract Introduction Mental health in training physicians is a growing issue. The aim of this study was to investigate emotional distress in psychiatry residents. Method This web-based survey evaluated 115 (62%) psychiatry residents in training in the Brazilian State of Rio Grande do Sul. The DSM-5 Self-Rated Level 1 Cross-Cutting Symptom Measure-Adult, the Patient Health Questionnaire-2, the Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test-concise, and the Maslach Burnout Inventory were all administered. Linear regression models were estimated with burnout dimensions as dependent variables. Result Positive screening rates were 53% for anxiety, 35.7% for somatization, 16.5% for depression, and 7% for suicidal ideation. Half of the male residents were at risk of alcohol abuse and dependence. Regarding burnout, 60% met criteria for emotional exhaustion, 54.8% for depersonalization, and 33% for low personal accomplishment. The most consistent risk factors were the nature of the relationships with preceptors, relations to the institutions themselves, age, and the quality of relationships with family. Conclusion Besides disconcerting rates of psychiatric symptoms, the study revealed that characteristics of the workplace (i.e., the nature of relationships with preceptors and relations to the institution) can be regarded as potential targets for development of interventions aimed at improving mental health during training periods.

ABSTRACT

RESUMEN En Brasil, el cuidado en salud mental en los centros de atención primaria se tornó estratégico, dado que garantiza que el usuario asista en su territorio, y la empatía es de gran importancia en el desarrollo de la relación médico-paciente. El objetivo de este estudio fue identificar características relacionadas con la empatía en médicas y médicos que trabajan en el primer nivel y atienden a personas con sufrimiento mental. Se realizó una investigación cualitativa, en 2016, con entrevistas semiestructuradas a ocho médicas y médicos generalistas y de familia. Los relatos se analizaron con la técnica de análisis de contenido y se identificaron tres categorías: empatía en la escucha activa del médico, estrategias que permitan una mejor atención del paciente y movilización de sentimientos. El uso de la empatía está intrínsecamente relacionado con la resolutividad de la atención y las características encontradas fueron la utilización de la escucha activa, el manejo de recursos y el desarrollo de métodos para superar trabas estructurales del cotidiano.


ABSTRACT In Brazil, the provision of mental health care in primary care centers has gained strategic importance, as it ensures that users will be able to attend these services within their communities, and empathy is a key aspect in the development of the doctor-patient relationship. The aim of this study was to identify characteristics related to empathy in physicians who work in primary care centers and who provide care to individuals with mental disorders. Qualitative research was carried out in 2016, based on semi-structured interviews with eight general and family physicians. Material from the interviews was analyzed using content analysis techniques and three categories emerged: empathy in the active listening of the physician, strategies that allow for better patient care, and the mobilization of emotions. The use of empathy is intrinsically linked to the resolutive capacity of care, and the characteristics identified were active listening, resource management, and the development of methods to overcome the structural obstacles of daily routines.

ABSTRACT

Este estudo teve por objetivo investigar as ações de prevenção e tratamento a usuários de álcool e outras drogas na Atenção Primária à Saúde (APS). Trata-se de uma pesquisa qualitativa realizada com 12 profissionais da Estratégia Saúde da Família que contam com o apoio matricial em saúde mental, em uma cidade da serra gaúcha. Foi utilizada a análise de conteúdo, na modalidade temática. Os resultados evidenciam a importância do tratamento não só do usuário, mas de toda a família; os resultados também apontaram a importância do vínculo estabelecido entre as equipes de referência e os usuários; a necessidade de investir e qualificar o apoio matricial para dar suporte às equipes da Estratégia de Saúde da Família nas questões referentes ao uso de substâncias psicoativas.


This study aimed to investigate prevention actions treatment to alcohol and other drugs users in Primary Health Care. It is a qualitative survey carried out with 12 professionals who count with mental health matrix support at the Family Health Strategy. It was using the thematic content analysis. Results showed not only the importance of the treatment for the user, but also for his family. Results also showed the importance of the bond established between the reference team and the user; and the need to investigate and qualify the matrix support to help Family Health Strategy teams regarding issues related to the use of psychoactive substances.

ABSTRACT

Surgical experiments with laboratory animals are necessary for medical research. These studies aim to clarify the mechanism of disease, investigate the action and efficacy of new drugs or biological markers, as well as develop and enhance new therapies and apply new techniques. Regarding the models of spinal cord injury (SCI), there are several different methods that address the handling of the animals, especially concerning the use of analgesics, antibiotics and pre- and postoperative management. The lack of uniformity and standardization among the studies does not allow the understanding of the model of SCI or the proper handling of the paraplegic animals, hampering the adequate interpretation and comparison of results. The goal of this study is to establish a standard protocol on the handling of animals subjected to experimental models of SCI.


Experimentações cirúrgicas em nível laboratorial com o uso de animais são necessárias para o desenvolvimento da pesquisa médica. Estes estudos têm o objetivo de identificar o mecanismo das doenças, pesquisar a ação e eficácia de novos medicamentos ou marcadores biológicos, além de desenvolver e aprimorar novas terapêuticas. Em relação aos modelos experimentais relacionados à lesão raquimedular, há diversas metodologias descritas sobres o manejo desses animais, especialmente em relação ao uso de analgésicos, antibióticos e manejo pré e pós operatórios. Essa variedade metodológica resulta na falta de uniformidade e padronização entre os estudos, prejudicando a interpretação adequada e a comparação entre os resultados. Diante deste cenário, este estudo tem objetivo de estabelecer um protocolo padrão sobre o manejo dos ratos submetidos a modelos experimentais de trauma raquimedular.

Estos estudios tienen por objeto aclarar el mecanismo de las enfermedades, investigar la acción de nuevos medicamentos y marcadores biológicos, así como desarrollar y mejorar nuevas terapias y aplicar nuevas técnicas. En cuanto a los modelos animales de lesión de la médula espinal (SCI), existen varios métodos diferentes que abordan el cuidado de estos animales, especialmente en relación con el uso de analgésicos, antibióticos y manejo pre y post operatorio. La falta de uniformidad y estandarización entre los estudios no permite la comprensión del modelo de SCI o el manejo adecuado del animal parapléjico, lo que dificulta la interpretación y comparación adecuada de los resultados. El objetivo de este estudio es establece un protocolo estándar de manejo de animales sometidos a modelos experimentales de SCI.

ABSTRACT

A depressão é uma condição presente em 20% dos portadores de doenças crônicas, estando associada à incapacitação funcional e comprometimento da saúde física. A doença renal crônica faz parte desse escopo, com prevalência de 405 pacientes por milhão de habitantes submetidos a hemodiálise no Brasil. Objetiva-se avaliar prevalência de sintomatologia depressiva e suas características em pacientes sob tratamento dialítico. Métodos: Estudo transversal, realizado entre junho e agosto de 2010, incluindo os pacientes submetidos a hemodiálise no Hospital Geral de Caxias do Sul, que preencheram os critérios de inclusão. Procedeu-se a aplicação de instrumentos de coleta de dados. O ponto de corte para depressão foi de 16 pontos no Inventário de Depressão de Beck. O estudo foi aprovado por Comitê de Ética em Pesquisa. Resultados: A amostra foi constituída por 64 pacientes. A média de idade foi de 53,66 ± 15,82 anos; 51,7% eram do sexo feminino. A prevalência de depressão foi de 44,8%. Os pacientes com IDB < 16 apresentaram escore médio de 7,23 ± 3,5; já aqueles com IDB > 16 apresentaram média de 26,43 ± 9,35 (p < 0,001). Os pacientes que necessitavam cuidador apresentaram maiores índices de depressão (p< 0,001). Nos pacientes com IDB > 16 os fatores mais influentes foram sono, cansaço e incapacidade de tomar decisões. Conclusão: A prevalência de depressão nos pacientes em hemodiálise é alta. Os pacientes que necessitam de cuidadores apresentam maior escore no IDB. Alterações do sono, cansaço e incapacidade de tomar decisões são os principais fatores para o humor depressivo.


Depression is a condition present in 20% of patients with chronic diseases and is associated with functional disability and impaired physical health. Chronic kidney disease is part of this scope, with an estimated prevalence of 405 patients per million undergoing hemodialysis in Brazil. The objective of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of depressive symptoms and their characteristics in patients on dialysis. Methods: A cross-sectional study conducted between June and August 2010, including patients undergoing hemodialysis at the General Hospital of Caxias do Sul, who met the inclusion criteria. The data collection instruments (questionnaire, Mini Mental State Examination and the Beck Depression Inventory–BDI) were administered individually during a hemodialysis session. The cut-off point for depression was 16 points in the BDI. Results: We studied 64 patients. The mean age was 53.66 ± 15.82 years, 51.7% were females. The prevalence of depression was 44.8. Patients with BDI<16 had a mean score of 7.23 ± 3.5, whereas those with BDI>16 had an average of 26.43 ± 9.35 (p <0.001). Patients who needed caregivers had higher levels of depression (p <0.001). In patients with BDI>16, the most influent factors were sleep, fatigue and inability to make decisions. Conclusion: The prevalence of depression in hemodialysis patients is high. Patients who need caregivers had higher scores on the BDI. Sleep disorders, fatigue and inability to make decisions are the main factors for depressed mood.
