ABSTRACT

Os riscos envolvidos na transfusão de sangue e hemoderivados podem ser conseqüentes de procedimentos inadequados, erros ou omissões dos profissionais responsáveis pela transfusão. O presente estudo objetivou determinar o nível de conhecimento sobre o assunto e a adequação das práticas transfusionais dos profissionais de Enfermagem que atuam em um grande hospital universitário do interior de São Paulo. O estudo foi realizado durante um treinamento teórico em Hemoterapia, onde foi aplicado um instrumento de coleta de dados antes e após o treinamento, caracterizando estes profissionais e avaliando seus conhecimentos sobre o tema. Participaram enfermeiros, auxiliares e técnicos de enfermagem responsáveis pela administração de transfusões. Mais da metade se sente pouco ou mal informada sobre o assunto. Grande parte referiu que os pacientes não são orientados sobre sinais e sintomas de reações transfusionais, ainda referindo procedimentos incorretos para aquecimento do sangue. A avaliação de conhecimentos evidenciou lacunas importantes na capacitação destes profissionais.


The risks involved in blood and blood component transfusion can be caused by inadequate procedures and mistakes or omissions by professionals responsible for transfusion. The present study aims at evaluating the level of knowledge on this issue and about the adequacy of the transfusional practices of nurses at a large university hospital in the State of São Paulo, Brazil. The study was conducted during an in-service training course on hemotherapy. A data collection instrument was applied before and after the training, when the professionals were asked about their knowledge of transfusion practices. Study participants were nurses and nursing assistants, all of whom were responsible for transfusion procedures. More than half the participants felt that they were given little information or were badly informed about transfusions. A large portion of the professionals mentioned that the signs and symptoms of transfusion reactions are not explained to patients. Many participants reported inadequate blood warming procedures. The evaluation of the knowledge showed significant defects in the education of these nursing professionals.
