Résumé

Resumo Diretivas antecipadas de vontade permitem que pacientes designem um representante legal e manifestem seus desejos a serem cumpridos quando se tornarem incapazes de se comunicar. Neste estudo, objetivou-se avaliar o conhecimento e as preferências de pacientes oncológicos sobre essas diretivas. Trata-se de pesquisa quantitativa e transversal realizada por meio do preenchimento de dois modelos de diretivas antecipadas de vontade e da aplicação de um questionário. Constatou-se que 87,38% dos pacientes nunca tinham ouvido falar em tais diretivas, 97,2% desconheciam os modelos e 95% não referiram dificuldade de preenchimento. Após o esclarecimento, 93,46% consideraram importante que todas as pessoas elaborem as diretivas, 94,86% que elas sejam disponibilizadas aos pacientes e 91,12% que seja aprovada uma lei federal. O esclarecimento sobre o conceito de diretivas antecipadas de vontade contribuiu para aumentar o interesse de pacientes oncológicos pela utilização desse direito, que fortalece sua autonomia pessoal quando incapazes de se comunicar.


Abstract Advance directives allow patients to assign a legal representative and express their wishes to be fulfilled when they can no longer communicate. This study evaluated cancer patients' knowledge and preferences regarding these directives. A cross-sectional quantitative research was conducted by filling out two advance directive models and a questionnaire. Of the total sample, 87.38% had never heard of such document, 97.2% ignored the two models available and 95% had no difficulties filling it out. After clarifications, 93.46% considered it important for all patients to write a directive, 94.86% expressed that advance directives should be made available to patients and 91.12% argued that a federal law should be passed. Explaining the concept of advanced directives increased the interest of cancer patients in exercising this right which strengthen their autonomy.


Resumen Las directivas anticipadas permiten a los pacientes designar a un representante legal y manifestar sus decisiones cuando no puedan comunicarse. Este estudio evaluó el conocimiento y las preferencias de los pacientes oncológicos sobre este documento. Se realizó una investigación cuantitativa y transversal, mediante la respuesta a dos modelos de directivas anticipadas y la aplicación de un cuestionario. El 87,38% de los pacientes no conocían este documento, el 97,2% de ellos desconocían los modelos y el 95% declararon no tener dificultades para responderlos. Tras la aclaración, el 93,46% de los entrevistados consideraban importante que todos elaboraran el documento, el 94,86% que debían ponerlo a disposición de los pacientes y el 91,12% que se aprobara una ley federal. La aclaración del concepto de voluntades anticipadas contribuye a incrementar el interés de los pacientes oncológicos por hacer uso de este derecho, que refuerza su autonomía personal cuando ya no pueden comunicarse.

Résumé

Resumen: El presente trabajo busca abordar el problema bioético de la colisión de voluntades que puede ocurrir con ocasión de la implementación de las directrices anticipadas en materia de salud mental, con especial énfasis en las directrices auto vinculantes, señalando ciertos lineamientos a observar con miras a regular adecuadamente esta circunstancia, determinando aquellas manifestaciones y comportamientos que deben contar como revocatorios de las instrucciones contenidas en el documento. Para estos efectos se emplea una metodología consistente en la revisión de la literatura pertinente. Se concluye que resulta imposible hallar una solución que permita satisfacer todos los intereses en conflicto, pero que la implementación de directrices anticipadas eficaces en salud mental requiere de una regulación que les conceda un cierto grado de rigidez, estableciendo, de manera clara y coherente, las circunstancias en que habrán de entenderse revocadas, sea que se emplee una evaluación de capacidad, o que se entregue la determinación de las circunstancias de la revocación al propio usuario.


Abstract: This paper seeks to address the bioethical problem of the collision of wills that may occur during the implementation of advance directives in mental health, with special emphasis on self-binding directives, pointing out certain guidelines to be observed in order to adequately regulate this circumstance, determining those manifestations and behaviors that should count as revocation of the instructions contained in the document. For these purposes, a methodology consisting of a review of the relevant literature is used. It is concluded that it is impossible to find a solution that satisfies all the conflicting interests, but that the implementation of effective advance directives in mental health requires a regulation that grants them a certain degree of rigidity, establishing, in a clear and coherent manner, the circumstances in which they are to be understood as revoked, whether an evaluation of capacity is used or the determination of the circumstances of revocation is left to the user himself.


Resumo: O presente trabalho busca abordar o problema bioético da colisão de vontades que pode ocorrer por ocasião da implementação das diretivas antecipadas em questões de saúde mental, com especial ênfase nas diretivas auto vinculantes, assinalando certos delineamentos a serem observados visando regular adequadamente esta circunstância, determinando aquelas manifestações e comportamentos que devem contar como revocatórios das instruções contidas no documento. Para esses efeitos emprega-se uma metodologia consistente na revisão da literatura pertinente. Conclui-se resultar impossível encontrar uma solução que permita satisfazer todos os interesses em conflito, porém que a implementação de diretivas antecipadas eficazes em saúde mental requer uma regulação que lhes conceda um certo grau de rigidez, estabelecendo, de maneira clara e coerente, as circunstâncias em que haverão de entender-se revogadas, seja empregando-se uma avaliação de capacidade, ou que se entregue a determinação das circunstancias da revogação ao próprio usuário.

Résumé

Resumen Las voluntades anticipadas en salud tienen como finalidad que la persona manifieste de manera anticipada su voluntad sobre los cuidados y el tratamiento de su salud, lo cual le permite expresar personalmente y de forma previa sus preferencias. Esta revisión de la literatura tiene por objetivo describir el concepto y la estructura de las voluntades anticipadas, así como los aspectos éticos involucrados durante el cuidado del paciente. Con las palabras clave "Advanced Health Care Directive" AND "Ethical Implication" y sus símiles en español (voluntades anticipadas, implicaciones éticas), se revisaron cinco bases de datos: ProQuest, Philosophy (JSTOR), PubMed, Web of Science y SciELO; las publicaciones se agruparon entre los años 2010 y 2018. Se obtuvieron 31 artículos de los cuales se realizó una lectura crítica. Los resultados de esta revisión fueron agrupados en las siguientes categorías: concepto, estructura, situaciones clínicas donde se aplican las voluntades anticipadas, fortalezas y limitaciones; así como los aspectos éticos involucrados. Actualmente, son más comunes las vivencias relacionadas con las situaciones al final de la vida, donde la persona pierde su capacidad de decidir y no puede manifestar sus deseos, por lo que es imposible conocer su voluntad. Gran parte de los profesionales de la salud no tienen capacitación adecuada sobre el desarrollo y la aplicación de las voluntades anticipadas, escenario que se convierte en una oportunidad para la investigación y profundización sobre el tema. Las voluntades anticipadas son una herramienta que proporciona al equipo de salud información fidedigna de los valores y deseos del paciente, por lo que es importante capacitar a estos profesionales para brindar una atención respetuosa y de calidad.


Abstract Advance healthcare directives are intended for the individual to personally express their will and preferences about healthcare and treatment ahead of time. This literature review aims to describe the concept and structure of advance directives and the ethical aspects involved in patient care. Using the keywords "Advance Healthcare Directive" AND "Ethical Implication" and its Spanish equivalents (voluntades anticipadas, implicaciones éticas), five databases were accessed: ProQuest, Philosophy (JSTOR), PubMed, Web of Science and Scielo. Publications were narrowed down to the 2010-2018 period. Thirty-one articles were obtained and read critically. Results of this review were grouped into the following categories: concept, structure, clinical situations in which advance directives apply, strengths and limitations, as well as the ethical aspects involved. End of life-related experiences in which a person loses their ability to make decisions and cannot express their wishes, so it is impossible to know their will, are more common nowadays. Most health workers are not appropriately trained in the preparation and application of advance directives, which becomes an opportunity to research and delve deeper into the subject. Advance directives are a tool that gives health workers reliable information on a patient's values and wishes, so it is vital to train them to provide respectful quality care.

Atualmente, são mais comuns as vivências relacionadas com as situações no final da vida, em que a pessoa perde sua capacidade de decidir e não pode manifestar seus desejos, portanto é impossível conhecer sua vontade. Grande parte dos profissionais da saúde não tem capacitação adequada sobre o desenvolvimento e a aplicação das diretivas antecipadas de vontade, o que se torna uma oportunidade para pesquisar e aprofundar sobre o tema. As diretivas antecipadas de vontade são uma ferramenta que proporciona, à equipe de saúde, informação fidedigna dos valores e desejos do paciente, por isso é importante capacitar os profissionais para oferecer uma atenção respeitosa e de qualidade.

Résumé

Resumen Introducción: Conceptos relacionados con las decisiones que se toman al final de la vida, como eutanasia, cuidados paliativos, voluntad anticipada y obstinación terapéutica son poco comprendidos por la población en general, que en el momento de enfrentar una situación terminal no está preparada para elegir la mejor opción. Objetivo: Estudio piloto (n = 544) para conocer lo que la población abierta entiende acerca de términos utilizados al final de la vida en cuatro ciudades de la república mexicana. Método: Encuesta vía internet de 18 preguntas sobre los distintos términos. Se trató de un estudio descriptivo, transversal, con análisis estadístico. Resultados: Se eligieron personas mayores de 18 años que no trabajaran en profesiones relacionadas con la salud. Conclusiones: La mayoría de los términos del final de la vida no interesaron ni fueron entendidos por parte de la población. El término menos reconocido fue la obstinación terapéutica (62.8 %) y el más conocido, cuidados paliativos (91 %); se confunden los términos eutanasia y suicidio asistido (47.8 %). La edad y escolaridad resultaron de mayor influencia en los resultados, que las otras variables demográficas.


Abstract Introduction: Concepts related to end-of-life decisions, such as euthanasia, palliative care, advance directives and therapeutic obstinacy, are poorly understood by the general population, which, when facing a terminal situation, is not prepared to choose the best option. Objective: Pilot study (n = 544) to find out what the open population understands about terms used in end-of-life situations in four cities of the Mexican Republic. Method: Survey via Internet with 18 questions about different terms. It was a descriptive, cross-sectional study. Statistical analysis was carried out. Results: People older than 18 years who were not engaged in health-related professional activities were selected. Conclusions: Most terms related to end-of-life decisions were found not to be interesting to or understood by a part of the population. The least recognized term was therapeutic obstinacy (62.8%), and the most widely known, palliative care (91%); there was confusion between the terms euthanasia and assisted suicide (47.8%). Age and education level had more influence in the results, than other demographic variables.

Résumé

Background: Even for the emergency transportation of cancer patients in the terminal phase of the disease with a DNAR, all patients are transported while resuscitation is carried out. We examined how on-site rescue squads felt about this along with what was found therefrom. Methods: We conducted an anonymous questionnaire among 103 staff members involved in emergency activities in the area concerned. The contents included: Have you ever transported patients with a DNAR? If yes, what kind of activities did you carry out?; and If not bound by the Fire Services Act, what kind of activities would you have carried out? Results: Even if you express your DNAR order, they have no choice but to comply with the Fire Service Law. Even assuming that there is no Fire Service Law, about half of respondents responded to lifesaving treatment, but about half of them responded that they wanted to refuse transportation. Discussion: For rescue squads, a difference between resuscitation activities and transportation was observed. Lack of knowledge among those near the patient who request emergency transportation against the will of the patient is the major cause of transporting patients with a DNAR. In order to respect the will of patients, the permeation of advance care planning including decisions made by visiting physicians and the creation of advance directives and education of local residents are necessary.

Résumé

Anesthesiologists may deal with ethical dilemmas when looking after Not To Be Resuscitated (NTBR) patients. Sometimes the latters are scheduled to undergo surgical procedures that are palliative in nature. With the advent of the cardio pulmonary resuscitation in the 1960s, new problems arose, such as long resuscitations, quality of life impairment and unnecessary protracted agony. Besides the fear to death and suffering, resuscitation’s dread appeared. In the beginning, the decisión to reject the resuscitation was the physician’s responsability. The development of the Patient Self-Determination Act (PSDA) transfered to the patient or to his/her legal surrogates the right to decide about his/her medical treatment, specially at the end of life. This article revised the evolution that allowed to exercise the patient autonomy, as well as the best way to proceed when anesthesia and surgery are necessary to care for a patient with a Do Not Resuscitate Order.


El anestesiólogo puede enfrentar dilemas éticos cuando debe anestesiar pacientes con indicaciones restrictivas (Límite del Esfuerzo Terapéutico, Orden de No Reanimar). Estos pacientes con frecuencia son sometidos a intervenciones destinadas a mejorar su calidad de vida, o para el control de síntomas, a pesar de tener un mal pronóstico evolutivo, y/o deterioro de su condición física. A mediados de la década de 1960, con la RCP (Reanimación Cardiopulmonar) aparecieron nuevos problemas, como reanimaciones reiteradas, deterioro de la calidad de vida, y prolongación de la agonía. Entonces, al miedo a la muerte y al sufrimiento, se sumó el miedo a la reanimación. Inicialmente, el médico responsable del paciente era el único habilitado para rechazar estas medidas de reanimación (NTBR, “not to be resuscitated”), con el subsiguiente debate bioético. Mas tarde, el desarrollo del principio de autonomía, transfirió al paciente y a su entorno más cercano el derecho a tomar decisiones informadas sobre su propio tratamiento médico1. Este artículo revisa los antecedentes relevantes que han permitido el traspaso del poder de decisión a los pacientes, así como la mejor forma de proceder ante la necesidad de administrarles anestesia cuando hay indicaciones restrictivas.

Résumé

PURPOSE: This study aims to investigate the relationships between knowledge on advance directive, attitudes towards the withdrawal of life-sustaining treatment and quality of life among hemodialysis patients. METHODS: A descriptive correlational study was conducted with 103 hemodialysis patients. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire from May to September of 2016, and analysed by using descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA and Pearson correlation coefficient. RESULTS: The participants' knowledge level on advance directive was 5.47±2.08 out of 9, the attitudes towards the withdrawal of life-sustaining treatment was 3.22±0.49 out of 5, and the quality of life was 3.35±0.92 out of 6. The knowledge on advance directive was positively correlated with attitudes towards the withdrawal of life-sustaining treatment (r=.21, p=.037) and quality of life (r=.21, p=.036). CONCLUSION: According to the results of this study, the level of knowledge on advance directive is preferred to improve the quality of life of hemodialysis patients. It is needed to support and maintain ongoing education opportunities in order to improve the level of knowledge on advance directive among patients undergoing hemodialysis.

Résumé

Abstract OBJECTIVE To analyze compliance with hand hygiene by healthcare professionals in an emergency department unit. METHOD This is a longitudinal quantitative study developed in 2015 with healthcare professionals from a university hospital in the state of Rio Grande do Sul. Each professional was monitored three times by direct non-participant observation at WHO's five recommended moments in hand hygiene, taking the concepts of opportunity, indication and action into account. Descriptive and analytical statistics were used. RESULTS Fifty-nine healthcare professionals participated in the study. The compliance rate was 54.2%. Nurses and physiotherapists showed a compliance rate of 66.6% and resident physicians, 41.3%. When compliance was compared among professional categories, nurses showed greater compliance than resident physicians (OR = 2.83, CI = 95%: 1.09-7.34). CONCLUSION Hand hygiene compliance was low. Multidisciplinary approaches could be important strategies for forming partnerships to develop learning and implementation of hand hygiene practices.


Resumen OBJETIVO Analizar la adhesión de los profesionales sanitarios a la higienización de las manos en servicio de urgencias. MÉTODO Estudio cuantitativo longitudinal desarrollado con profesionales sanitarios de un Hospital Universitario de Río Grande do Sul, en 2015. Para cada profesional, se llevaron a cabo tres acompañamientos con observación directa no participante en los cinco momentos preconizados para la higienización de las manos, teniendo en cuenta los conceptos de Oportunidad, Indicación y Acción. Se utilizó la estadística descriptiva y analítica. RESULTADOS Participaron en el estudio 59 profesionales sanitarios. La tasa de adhesión fue del 54,2%. Los enfermeros y fisioterapeutas obtuvieron la tasa de adhesión del 66,6% y los médicos residentes, del 41,3%. Al compararse la adhesión entre las categorías profesionales, los enfermeros tuvieron mayor adherencia que los médicos residentes (RC=2,83; IC=95%:1,09-7,34). CONCLUSIÓN La adhesión a la higienización de las manos fue baja.

Résumé

Mental Health Law has specify the mental disorder patients’ informed consent right,but in practice, the problems,the mental health status of patients, namely the families’ right of subrogation exercise,“loss of self-control or deny having mental disorder”, have prevented the exercising of informed consent right. Therefore,it is necessary to effectively solve this plight of rebuilding a harmonious relationship between doctors and patients,estab-lishing mentally disordered patients’ right to advance directives, especially choosing the instrument of assessing the individual’ s capacity to consent.

Résumé

ABSTRACT Objective: To assess adherence of the prescribing physicians in a private cancer care center to the American Society of Clinical Oncology guideline for antiemetic prophylaxis, in the first cycle of antineoplastic chemotherapy. Methods: A total of 139 chemotherapy regimens, of 105 patients, were evaluated retrospectively from 2011 to 2013. Results: We observed 78% of non-adherence to the guideline rate. The main disagreements with the directive were the prescription of higher doses of dexamethasone and excessive use of 5-HT3 antagonist for low risk emetogenic chemotherapy regimens. On univariate analysis, hematological malignancies (p=0.005), the use of two or more chemotherapy (p=0.05) and high emetogenic risk regimes (p=0.012) were factors statistically associated with greater adherence to guidelines. Treatment based on paclitaxel was the only significant risk factor for non-adherence (p=0.02). By multivariate analysis, the chemotherapy of high emetogenic risk most correlated with adherence to guideline (p=0.05). Conclusion: We concluded that the adherence to guidelines is greater if the chemotherapy regime has high emetogenic risk. Educational efforts should focus more intensely on the management of chemotherapy regimens with low and moderate emetogenic potential. Perhaps the development of a computer generated reminder may improve the adherence to guidelines. .


RESUMO Objetivo: Avaliar a adesão dos médicos prescritores, de um centro privado especializado em oncologia, à diretriz de antiêmese profilática da American Society of Clinical Oncology, no primeiro ciclo de quimioterapia antineoplásica. Métodos: Foram avaliados retrospectivamente 139 esquemas de quimioterapia, de 105 pacientes, tratados no período de 2011 a 2013. Resultados: Foram observados 78% de taxa de não adesão à diretriz. As principais discordâncias com a diretriz foram prescrição de doses mais elevadas de dexametasona e uso excessivo de antagonista 5-HT3 para regimes de quimioterapia de risco emetogênico baixo. Pela análise univariada, malignidades hematológicas (p=0,005), uso de dois ou mais quimioterápicos (p=0,05) e regimes de alto risco emetogênico (p=0,012) foram fatores estatisticamente associados a maior adesão à diretriz. O tratamento baseado em paclitaxel foi o único fator estatisticamente significativo para a não adesão (p=0,02). Pela análise multivariada, a quimioterapia de alto risco emetogênico apresentou maior correlação com a adesão à diretriz (p=0,05). Conclusão: Houve maior aderência para a quimioterapia de alto risco emetogênico. Esforços educacionais devem se concentrar mais intensamente na gestão de regimes de quimioterapia com potencial emetogênico baixo e moderado. Talvez o desenvolvimento de lembretes gerados por sistemas informatizados possa melhorar a aderência à diretriz. .

Objetivo: Valorar tasa de adherencia y causas de no adherencia a las guías terapéuticas internacionales para la prescripción antibiótica empírica en la neumonía grave en Latinoamérica. Métodos: Encuesta clínica realizada a 36 médicos de Latinoamérica donde se pedía indicar el tratamiento empírico en 2 casos clínicos ficticios de pacientes con infección respiratoria grave: neumonía adquirida en la comunidad y neumonía nosocomial. Resultados: En el caso de la neumonía comunitaria el tratamiento fue adecuado en el 30,6% de las prescripciones. Las causas de no adherencia fueron monoterapia (16,0%), cobertura no indicada para multirresistentes (4,0%) y empleo de antibióticos con espectro inadecuado (44,0%). En el caso de la neumonía nosocomial el cumplimiento de las guías terapéuticas Infectious Disease Society of America/American Thoracic Society fue del 2,8%. Las causas de falta de adherencia fueron monoterapia (14,3%) y la falta de doble tratamiento antibiótico frente a Pseudomonas aeruginosa (85,7%). En caso de considerar correcta la monoterapia con actividad frente a P. aeruginosa, el tratamiento sería adecuado en el 100% de los casos. Conclusión: En la neumonía comunitaria la adherencia a las guías terapéuticas Infectious Disease Society of America/American Thoracic Society fue del 30,6%; la causa más frecuente de incumplimiento fue el uso de monoterapia. La adherencia en el caso de la neumonía nosocomial fue del 2,8% y la causa más importante de incumplimiento fue la falta de doble tratamiento frente a P. aeruginosa, considerando adecuada monoterapia con actividad frente a P. aeruginosa la adherencia sería del 100%. .


Objective: To assess the adherence to Infectious Disease Society of America/American Thoracic Society guidelines and the causes of lack of adherence during empirical antibiotic prescription in severe pneumonia in Latin America. Methods: A clinical questionnaire was submitted to 36 physicians from Latin America; they were asked to indicate the empirical treatment in two fictitious cases of severe respiratory infection: community-acquired pneumonia and nosocomial pneumonia. Results: In the case of communityacquired pneumonia, 11 prescriptions of 36 (30.6%) were compliant with international guidelines. The causes for non-compliant treatment were monotherapy (16.0%), the unnecessary prescription of broad-spectrum antibiotics (40.0%) and the use of non-recommended antibiotics (44.0%). In the case of nosocomial pneumonia, the rate of adherence to the Infectious Disease Society of America/American Thoracic Society guidelines was 2.8% (1 patient of 36). The reasons for lack of compliance were monotherapy (14.3%) and a lack of dual antibiotic coverage against Pseudomonas aeruginosa (85.7%). If monotherapy with an antipseudomonal antibiotic was considered adequate, the antibiotic treatment would be adequate in 100% of the total prescriptions. Conclusion: The compliance rate with the Infectious Disease Society of America/American Thoracic Society guidelines in the community-acquired pneumonia scenario was 30.6%; the most frequent cause of lack of compliance was the indication of monotherapy. In the case of nosocomial pneumonia, the compliance rate with the guidelines was 2.8%, and the most important cause of non-adherence was lack of combined antipseudomonal therapy. If the use of monotherapy with an antipseudomonal antibiotic was considered the correct option, the treatment would be adequate in 100% of the prescriptions. .

Résumé

A terminalidade da vida levanta cada vez mais dilemas éticos. Dada a importância do tema e a recente regulamentação do testamento vital pelo Conselho Federal de Medicina, é de grande valor o conhecimento dessa problemática por parte dos futuros médicos. Assim, buscou-se aferir a compreensão dos estudantes de medicina da Universidade do Estado do Pará acerca do testamento vital e das decisões envolvendo o final da vida. O estudo qualiquantitativo descritivo e transversal entrevistou 238 estudantes por meio de questionário com 10 questões. Apenas 8% dos estudantes demonstraram ter uma noção clara sobre o significado do termo “testamento vital”. Apesar disso, após ouvirem a definição das diretivas antecipadas de vontade fornecida pelos pesquisadores, 92% deles declararam que respeitariam o previsto no testamento vital. Portanto, conclui-se que, embora boa parte dos entrevistados tenha pouco entendimento sobre o tema “testamento vital”, a grande maioria posicionou-se a favor de sua aceitação...


The end of a person’s life raises many ethical dilemmas. Recently, the Brazil’s Federal Council of Medicine approved and regulated the concept of “living will”; as a result, it is of considerable importance that doctors understand the issues that surround this matter. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the knowledge of medical students from the Pará State University, Brazil, of “living wills” and decisions involving the end of life. A cross-sectional study was performed with 238 students who answered a questionnaire of 10 questions. Only 8% of students demonstrated a clear understanding of the term “living will”. Nevertheless, when the definition of “living will” was explained to the participants of the study by the researchers, 92% of students declared that they would respect its provisions. Therefore it appears that while most respondents had a low level of understanding of the concept of “living will”, the vast majority positioned themselves in favor of accepting such a document...

Résumé

Purpose Characterize persistence and adherence to phosphodiesterase type - 5 inhibitor (PDE5I) on-demand therapy over 6 months among Brazilian men in an observational, non-interventional study of Latin American men naïve to PDE5Is with erectile dysfunction (ED). Materials and Methods Men were prescribed PDE5Is per routine clinical practice. Persistence was defined as using ≥ 1 dose during the previous 4 - weeks, and adherence as following dosing instructions for the most recent dose, assessed using the Persistence and Adherence Questionnaire. Other measures included the Self - Esteem and Relationship (SEAR) Questionnaire, and International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF). Multivariate logistic regression was used to identify factors associated with persistence/adherence. Results 104 Brazilian men were enrolled; mean age by treatment was 53 to 59 years, and most presented with moderate ED (61.7%). The prescribed PDE5I was sildenafil citrate for 50 (48.1%), tadalafil for 36 (34.6%), vardenafil for 15 (14.4%), and lodenafil for 3 patients (2.9%). Overall treatment persistence was 69.2% and adherence was 70.2%; both were numerically higher with tadalafil (75.0%) versus sildenafil or vardenafil (range 60.0% to 68.0%). Potential associations of persistence and/or adherence were observed with education level, ED etiology, employment status, and coronary artery disease. Improvements in all IIEF domain scores, and both SEAR domain scores were observed for all treatments. Study limitations included the observational design, brief duration, dependence on patient self - reporting, and limited sample size. Conclusion Approximately two-thirds of PDE5I-naive, Brazilian men with ED were treatment persistent and adherent after 6 months. Further study is warranted to improve long-term outcomes of ED treatment. .

Résumé

Objective To investigate the application of secondary prevention medication for patients with high risk of recurrent ischemic stroke in Changzhou city,analyze the reasons for decreased medication compliance,and evaluate the current secondary prevention medication.Methods We investigated 300 consecutive hospitalized patients with acute non-cardiogenic and ischemic stroke high risk.High risk of recurrent stroke was defined as ESSEN Stroke Risk Score (ESRS) ≥3.Different ESRS scales consisting of different parameters were analyzed.All of the patients received standard secondary prevention of ischemic stroke at discharge.After three months and a year follow up,antiplatelet therapy,therapy of risk factors (hypertension and diabetes mellitus),lipid lowering therapy,and medication compliance were investigated.Results Except for age (x2 =126.54,P =0.000) and previous cerebral ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA) (x2 =21.27,P =0.000),there were no significant differences in other risk factors (hypertension,diabetes,previous myocardial infarction,heart diseases,smoke) in patients with different ESRS scale scores (all P> 0.05).Antiplatelet therapy utilization was 98.3% (295/300),antihypertensive and antidiabetic drug use rates were 95.0%(255/268) and 100%(72/72),statin use rate reached to 99% (297/300) at discharge.After three months follow up,medication compliance in hypertension and diabetes mellitus therapy was the best [88.1%(222/252)and 86.2% (56/65)],followed by aspirin [82.0% (228/278)],and clopidogrel [6.1% (17/278)].The medication compliance in lipid lowering therapy was the worst [60.1% (167/278)].After a year follow-up versus the previous three-month follow-up,the medication compliance in hypertension and diabetes mellitus therapy was increased,but had no significant difference [89.9 % (220/245) vs.88.1% (222/252),93.4%(57/61)vs.86.2%(56/65),P>0.05],and the medication compliances inantiplatelet therapy with aspirin and clopidogrel,and lipid lowering therapy were increased significantly [93.2% (245/263)vs.82.0% (228/278),30.8(81/263) vs.6.1% (17/278),88.9% (234/263) vs.60.1% (167/278),all P<0.01].The increment of use rate was higher in clopidogrel therapy than in aspirin therapy.Conclusions The secondary prevention medication achieves certain efficacies in patients with high risk of recurrent ischemic stroke in changzhou city.Long term follow-up and good communication between doctor and patient can effectively improve the medication compliance in secondary prevention,and can increase the use rate of antiplatelet therapy in patients with high risk of recurrent ischemic stroke.

Résumé

PURPOSE: This study is aimed to investigate perceptions of caregivers and medical staff toward do not resuscitate (DNR) and advance directives (AD). METHODS: Participants were 141 caregivers and 272 medical staff members from five general hospitals. A questionnaire used for the study consisted of 20 items: 14 about DNR perceptions, three about AD, one each for age, gender and employment. RESULTS: Both medical staff and caregivers strongly recognized the need for DNR and AD, and the level of recognition was higher with medical staff than caregivers (DNR chi2=44.56, P=0.001; AD chi2=16.23, P=0.001). The main reason for the recognition was to alleviate sufferings of patients in the terminal phase. In most cases, DNR and AD were filled out when patients with terminal conditions were admitted, and patients made the decisions by consulting with their guardians. Medical staff better recognized the need and for growing demand for guidelines for the DNR and AD decision making process than caregivers (chi2=7.41, P=0.0025). CONCLUSION: This study showed that patients highly rely on their caregivers when making decisions for DNR and AD. Thus, it is important that patients and caregivers are provided with objective information about the decisions. Since participants' strong support for DNR and AD was mainly aimed at alleviating patients' suffering, further study is needed in the association with hospice care. Medical staff also needs to understand the different views held by caregivers and fully consider the disparity when informing patients/caregivers to make the DNR and AD decisions.

Résumé

<b>Purpose and Methods</b>: Based on the medical records of 56 cases of death from hematologic malignancy, we investigated who decided end-of-life care in the terminal phase and at the end of life, what factor discourages patients from making self-decisions and whether an advance directive about end-of-life care is present. We then extracted the story of the family in decision-making for end-of-life care. <b>Results</b>: In 45 cases, the patient decided end-of-life care at the terminal phase. In 11 cases, the family made the decision on behalf of the patient. In the terminal phase, the factor that most discouraged patients from making a self-decision was dementia, but at the end of life the factor was symptomatic worsening in all cases. In 49 cases, the family decided end-of-life care at the end of life on behalf of the patient. Regarding end-of-life care policy, 49 cases hoped for "do not attempt resuscitation (DNAR)" and 7 cases hoped for life-support treatment. Advance directives were confirmed in 7 cases. Mental conflict about end-of-life care policy was perceived from the family's story. Despite small number of cases, it was suggested that an advance directive reduced psychological burden on the family. <b>Conclusion</b>: It is difficult for the patient to make self-decisions about end-of-care life at the end of life as compared to end-of-care life in the terminal phase. Further studies are required to assess the efficacy of an advance directive.

Résumé

This exploratory, descriptive and prospective study aimed to identify the degree of adherence to psychopharmacological treatment of patients who were discharged from psychiatric hospitalization and their knowledge about their prescription and diagnosis. The study was carried out at a Mental Health Service. The sample consisted of all service clients who were discharged from psychiatric hospitalization in the data collection period. A Sociodemographic Questionnaire and the Morisky-Green Test were the instruments used. Data were analyzed through central trend measures. In total, 48 patients participated in the study. Regarding adherence, 70.8 percent of them showed a low adherence level to psychopharmacological treatment. Moreover, only twenty-one patients knew what their diagnosis was and most did not know or partially knew the name and dose of all prescribed medications.
