ABSTRACT

This study aimed to identify variables associated with the appropriate recall of indications and the drug classes that represented the most unmatching medications (i.e., when the individual who used it had not reported any illness that matched its indications). Community-dwelling individuals aged ≥60 years using ≥1 medication, from Santa Cruz da Esperança-SP, Brazil, were home-interviewed. Logistic regression models were used to evaluate the association between the appropriate recall of the indications for all medications in use and the following: gender, age, education, individual income, living arrangement, self-perceived health, and medication number, administration, payment, and identification. Medications whose indications were inappropriately recalled were classified as matching or unmatching. One hundred seventeen individuals used an average of 5.1 (standard deviation, 3.3) medications. Sixty-one (52.1%) appropriately recalled all indications. The appropriate recall of all indications was negatively associated with the number of medications in use (e.g., individuals taking 5-6 medications were 25 times less likely to appropriately recall all indications than those taking 1-2). Antithrombotic, acid-related disorder and psychoanaleptic classes showed greater frequencies of unmatching than matching medications. Therefore, counseling the elderly about drug indications should focus on those using ≥3 medications and/or antithrombotic, acid-related disorder, and psychoanaleptic agents.

ABSTRACT

A Psicologia vem sendo instituída a partir de um pensamento modelar, tendendo a valorizar as configurações identitárias, passíveis de generalizações, em detrimento das diferenças emergentes nas diversas práticas. Estas diferenças são, na maioria das vezes, negadas e/ou avaliadas como desvios, erros e depreciadas quando comparadas ao modelo ou norma. Nos últimos anos, esse modo de pensamento vem sendo questionado e criticado em função da diversidade emergente nas diversas práticas, principalmente naquelas desenvolvidas com populações de baixo nível sócio-econômico, não contempladas nas teorias psicológicas tradicionais O pensamento modelar, predominante nas sociedades ocidentais, naturaliza valores morais e avalia a vida a partir destes, criando um processo perverso de reprodução de sistemas sociais injustos. Trabalhar numa dimensão Ética significa, exatamente, considerar os valores como criações humanas e acolher a diferença emergente nos diversos contextos como aquilo que resiste à reprodução, como aquilo propiciador de transformações nos modos modelares e excludentes de estar no mundo.
