ABSTRACT

OBJETIVO: Describir las actitudes de las enfermeras hacia la depresión, usando un cuestionario estándar para evaluar cómo una intervención formativa influye o modifica estas actitudes. MÉTODOS: Estudio prospectivo basado en la aplicación del Depression Attitude Questionnaire, antes y seis meses después de participar en una jornada formativa sobre el rol de enfermería en el manejo de la depresión en atención primaria. La muestra está formada por 40 enfermeras de atención primaria de 10 centros de salud de la provincia de Tarragona. RESULTADOS: Las enfermeras se sitúan en una posición neutra en la consideración del manejo de los pacientes deprimidos como una tarea dura, o en sentirse cómodas en la planificación de cuidados, aunque existe un alto grado de aceptación de la afirmación de que el tiempo dedicado a los pacientes deprimidos es gratificante. En general, se han constatado escasas diferencias significativas en las puntuaciones medias en los diferentes ítems del Depression Attitude Questionnaire antes y seis meses después de la intervención formativa. CONCLUSIONES: Se halla, en general, una favorable predisposición hacia el abordaje de la depresión en atención primaria y hacia el papel que pueden ejercer las enfermeras. De este modo, se pueden establecer y prosperar iniciativas formativas y organizativas que puedan perfilar y estructurar más nítidamente el rol de enfermería en el diseño de planes de cuidados dirigidos al paciente deprimido en atención primaria


OBJECTIVE: To describe nurse attitudes toward depression, using a standardized questionnaire and to evaluate how a training workshop can modify or influence these attitudes. METHODS: A prospective study based on the application of the Depression Attitude Questionnaire, before and six months after, participating in a training day on the nursing role in the management of depression in Primary Care. The sample consisted of 40 Primary Care nurses from 10 health centers in the province of Tarragona. RESULTS: Nurses are in a neutral position when considering the management of depressed patients as a difficult task, or to feel comfortable in this task, but there is a high degree of acceptance of the claim that the time spent caring for depressed patients is rewarding. In general, there was little significant difference in the mean scores for the different items of the Depression Attitude Questionnaire, before and six months, after the training intervention. CONCLUSIONS: The attitude towards the management of depression in Primary Care and to the role that nurses can play in this task is generally favorable. Fruitful training and organizational initiatives can be established in order to define and structure the nursing role in the management of depression in Primary Care

ABSTRACT

Objetivo: evaluar, en términos de efectividad clínica (días sin depresión), un modelo asistencial basado en la potenciación del rol enfermero y dirigido a mejorar el manejo de la depresión en Atención Primaria, frente al tratamiento habitual. Material y método: ensayo controlado aleatorizado. Participaron 20 centros de Atención Primaria que fueron asignados a dos grupos alternativos: un grupo de intervención y un grupo de tratamiento habitual (control). La intervención consistió en un programa multicomponente con procedimientos clínicos, educativos y organizativos que incluyen capacitación, guías clínicas, enfermeras de Atención Primaria como care managers y mejoras en la coordinación Atención Primaria-Psiquiatría. Los resultados fueron evaluados a los 0, 3, 6 y 12 meses a través de los días libres de depresión (depression free days, DFD). Para el análisis bivariante se utilizaron la prueba T de Student y la ji cuadrado. Se calcularon intervalos de confianza al 95% de seguridad. Los análisis fueron realizados por intención de tratar. Resultados: participaron 338 individuos, 189 asignados al grupo de intervención y 149 al grupo de control. La cantidad de DFD fue significativamente mayor en el grupo de intervención que en el grupo de control: entre los 0 y 12 meses, en el grupo de intervención la media fue de 204,6 DFD (desviación estándar, DE: 116,2), y en el grupo de control de 160,5 DFD (DE: 110,4), siendo la diferencia de 44,1 DFD (IC 95%: 18,1-70,1) (p = 0,001). Conclusiones: la participación del profesional de Enfermería en el manejo de la depresión en Atención Primaria en el marco de un programa multicomponente da lugar a mejores resultados clínicos en términos de días libres de depresión. Los diversos componentes del programa son simples y fácilmente disponibles, por lo que indican que podría ser recomendada su implementación.

Objective: To assess, in terms of clinical effectiveness (depression-free days), a care model based on promoting the nurse’s role and aimed at improving the management of depression in Primary Care, versus standard treatment. Material and method: Randomised controlled trial. 20 primary car e centers participated and were assigned to two alternative groups: an intervention group and a standard treatment group (control). The intervention consisted of a multicomponent programme with clinical, educational and organizational procedures that include capacity-building, clinical guidelines, Primary Car e nurses such as car e managers and improvements in Primary Care-Psychiatry coordination. Results were evaluated at 0, 3, 6 and 12 months based on depression-free days (DFD). For the bivariate analysis Student’s T test and chi square were used. 95% confidence intervals were calculated. The analyses were performed by intention to treat. Results: 338 individuals participated, 189 of which were assigned to the intervention group and 149 to the control group. The amount of DFDs was significantly higher in the intervention group than in the control group: between 0 and 12 months, the mean (standard deviation, SD) in the intervention group was 204.6 DFD, and in the control group it was 160.5 DFD (SD: 110.4), the difference being of 44.1 DFD (95% CI: 18.1-70.1) (p=0.001). Conclusions: The participation of the Nursing professional in the management of depression in Primary Care within the framework of a multicomponent programme leads to better clinical results in terms of depression-free days. The different parts of the programme are simple and easily available, which indicates that their implementation could be recommended.

ABSTRACT

La depresión es el trastorno mental más frecuente y relevante en Atención Primaria. Sin embargo, existen dificultades en su manejo y los resultados clínicos que se obtienen no son a menudo satisfactorios. En el marco del desarrollo de un modelo multifactorial para mejorar los resultados de la depresión en Atención Primaria (el proyecto INDI) se ha diseñado un programa psicoeducativo dirigido a los pacientes deprimidos, así como a sus allegados. En el modelo INDI, la implementación de las actividades psicoeducativas recae principalmente en la enfermera de Atención Primaria. Los contenidos del programa incluyen formación sobre la propia enfermedad, especialmente orientada a combatir el estigma y los prejuicios sobre la misma, sobre el tratamiento antidepresivo y la importancia de la adherencia al mismo, sobre el automanejo de las dificultades asociadas, así como orientaciones sobre el importante papel que pueden/deben desempeñar las personas próximas al paciente deprimido (AU)


Depression is the most frequent and relevant mental disorder in Primary Care. However, there its management presents difficulties and the clinical outcomes obtained are often not satisfactory. Within the frame work of the development of a multifactor model to improve depression outcomes in Primary Care (INDI project) a psycho educational programme aimed at depressed patients, as well as their loved ones, has been designed. In the INDI model, the implementation of psycho educational activities is managed primarily by the Primary Care nurse. The programme’s contents include educating on the disease itself with a special emphasis on fighting the stigma and prejudices attached to it and providing training on antidepressant treatment and the importance of treatment adherence, on the self-management of associated difficulties, as well as offering advice on the important role that the people close to the depressed patient can/should play (AU)
