ABSTRACT

INTRODUCTION: Despite recent advances in assisted reproduction techniques and recent knowledge regarding embryo and endometrium quality, implantation and birth rates remain low. The objective of this study was to investigate whether clomiphene citrate alters endometrial maturation in infertile patients. METHODS: In a prospective self-matched cohort study, we assessed the ovulation of women in spontaneous and stimulated cycles (with clomiphene citrate). We determined the ovulation day by ultrasound scanning. In both cycles, we took four blood samples (BS1 - at early proliferative phase, BS2 - at mid proliferative phase, BS3 - after ovulation and BS4 - at mid luteal phase) to determine the serum concentrations of FSH, LH, estradiol and progesterone. We retrieved an endometrial biopsy five days after ovulation, followed by blinded analysis and classification according to Noyes criteria, in both cycles. RESULTS: Twenty-two participants completed the study. There were significant differences in FSH BS3 (p=0.001), in LH BS3 and BS4 (p<0.001 and p=0.049, respectively), in estradiol BS2, BS3 and BS4 (p<0.001, p=0.024 and p<0.001, respectively) and in progesterone BS3 and BS4 (p=0.028 and p<0.001, respectively). Considering Noyes criteria, there was a one-day delay when comparing the stimulated cycle with the spontaneous cycle (p=0.004), and a two-day delay when comparing the stimulated cycle with the biopsy day. CONCLUSION: This study indicates that ovarian stimulation with clomiphene citrate delays the endometrial maturity, and could possibly impair the implantation process due to asynchrony.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: To describe a population of pregnant women diagnosed with toxoplasmosis and their respective newborns, describing the hospital protocol for treatment and follow-up. METHODS: Retrospective cohort of pregnant women with acute toxoplasmosis infection and risk of transplacental transmission who were sent to the Fetal Medicine Group of Hospital de Clínicas de Porto Alegre (HCPA) between - January 1, 2006 and December 31, 2016. All patients with confirmed disease were included. The diagnostic protocol and treatment were applied; a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) analysis of the amniotic fluid was used to diagnose toxoplasmosis and determine the treatment. The newborns were followed up at the pediatric outpatient clinic specializing in congenital infection. The patients who were not followed up or were not born in the HCPA were excluded. RESULTS: A total of 65 patients were confirmed to have gestational toxoplasmosis; 40 performed amniocentesis, and 6 (15%) were identified as having positive PCR in the amniotic fluid. In five of those cases, this result associated with the gestational age defined the triple therapy during pregnancy, and in one case, it defined the monotherapy (advanced gestational age). A total of 4 of these newborns were treated from birth with triple therapy for 10 months, 1 was not treated (due to maternal refusal), and 1 progressed to death within the first 54 hours of life due to complications of congenital toxoplasmosis. Of the 34 remaining cases with a negative PCR, 33 were treated with monotherapy and 1 was treated with triple therapy (ultrasound findings); of these children, 9 (26.5%) presented negative immunoglobulin G (IgG), 24 (70.6%) presented positive IgG (but none presented positive immunoglobulin M [IgM]), and 1 (2,9%) presented alterations compatible with congenital disease and started treatment with the triple therapy soon after birth. Out of the total sample of 60 patients, among the 25 who did not perform amniotic fluid PCR, 5 were treated with triple therapy (ultrasound findings/prior treatment) and 20 patients were submitted to monotherapy; only two newborns underwent treatment for congenital toxoplasmosis. Among the 65 cases of gestational toxoplasmosis, 6 (9,2%) children had a diagnosis of congenital toxoplasmosis, and 2 patients with triple therapy felt severe adverse effects of the medications. CONCLUSIONS: The present study suggests that research on PCR screening of the amniotic fluid may be useful to identify patients with a higher potential for fetal complications, who may benefit from the poly-antimicrobial treatment. Patients with negative PCR results must continue to prevent fetal infection with monotherapy, without risk of fetal or maternal impairment.


OBJETIVO: Descrever uma população de pacientes diagnosticadas com toxoplasmose na gestação e seus respectivos recém-nascidos, relatando o protocolo do hospital durante o tratamento e seguimento. MéTODOS: Coorte retrospectiva de gestantes com infecção aguda por toxoplasmose e risco de transmissão transplacentária, encaminhadas para acompanhamento pelo Grupo de Medicina Fetal do Hospital de Clínicas de Porto Alegre (HCPA) entre 1o de janeiro de 2006 e 31 de dezembro de 2016. Todas as pacientes com doença confirmada foram incluídas. O protocolo de diagnóstico e tratamento foi aplicado; uma análise da reação em cadeia da polimerase (RCP) no líquido amniótico foi utilizada para diagnosticar a toxoplasmose e determinar o tratamento. Os recém-nascidos foram acompanhados no ambulatório de pediatria especializado em infecções congênitas. Pacientes que não foram seguidas ou cujo parto não foi feito no hospital foram excluídas. RESULTADOS: A toxoplasmose gestacional foi confirmada em 65 pacientes; 40 realizaram amniocentese, e 6 (15%) foram identificadas com RCP positiva no líquido amniótico. Este resultado associado à idade gestacional definiu a terapia tríplice durante a gestação em 5 casos, e a monoterapia em 1 caso (por idade gestacional avançada). Quatro destas crianças foram tratadas desde o nascimento com terapia tríplice por 12 meses, 1 não foi tratada (por recusa materna), e 1 evoluiu com óbito dentro das primeiras 54 horas de vida devido a complicações da toxoplasmose congênita. Dos 34 casos remanescentes com RCP negativa, 33 foram tratados com monoterapia, e 1 foi tratado com terapia tríplice (por achados ultrassonográficos); destes recém-nascidos, 9 (26,5%) tiveram imunoglobulina G (IgG) negativa, 24 (70,6%) tiveram IgG positiva, mas nenhum apresentou imunoglobulina M (IgM) positiva, e 1 (2,9%) apresentou alterações compatíveis com doença congênita e iniciou a terapia tríplice logo após o nascimento. Entre as 25 pacientes que não fizeram RCP no líquido amniótico, 5 foram tratadas com terapia tríplice (por achados ultrassonográficos/tratamento prévio) e 20 receberam monoterapia; somente 2 recém-nascidos receberam tratamento para toxoplasmose congênita. Entre os 65 casos de toxoplasmose gestacional, 6 (9,2%) recém-nascidos tiveram o diagnóstico de toxoplasmose congênita. Um total de 2 pacientes submetidas à terapia tríplice apresentaram efeitos adversos severos das medicações utilizadas. CONCLUSãO: Este estudo sugere que a triagem da RCP para toxoplasmose do líquido amniótico pode ser útil no rastreamento de pacientes com maior potencial para complicações fetais, que podem se beneficiar do tratamento poli antimicrobiano. Pacientes com RCP negativa devem continuar a prevenir a infecção fetal com monoterapia, sem risco de comprometimento fetal ou materno.

ABSTRACT

Trisomy 18 (T18) and trisomy 13 (T13) are polymalformative syndromes associated with a high rate of spontaneous abortions, intrauterine death, and short postnatal life. This study describes the overall outcome in a country where the therapeutic interruption of pregnancy is not available. The medical records of women with prenatal diagnosis of full trisomy of T13 or T18 between October 1994 and October 2017 were analyzed in order to describe their natural outcomes. Thirteen cases of T13 and 29 cases of T18 were included. The miscarriage rate was 9% for T18 and no cases for T13. Intrauterine fetal death occurred in 46% and 52% of cases for T13 and T18, respectively. The rate of live births for T13 was 54%, and the median survival was one day (95% CI -33.55 - 90.40) and 71% died in the first 24 hours of life. The rate of live births for T18 was 37% and the median survival was two days (95% CI -1.89 - 13.17); 90% of the affected babies died within first week of life. For the affected babies reaching the first year of life and for those who lived longer, multiple invasive and expensive procedures were required, without success in prolonging life beyond 180 days. This large series provides information for professionals and women regarding the natural histories of T13 and T18. Results of this study are consistent with those referenced in the literature, emphasizing the need of structured protocols and guidelines aiming early T13 and T18 diagnosis, prenatal care, gestation/parents follow-up, and counseling processes. For those couples with earlier diagnosis, a better follow-up and counseling during the prenatal care lead to the option for a support or palliative management of the newborn. Finally, when the counseling process is appropriate, it becomes easier to take decisions respecting the parent's autonomy and to look for better outcomes for both, the mother and the fetus.

ABSTRACT

Objetivo: Caracterizar aspectos étnicos, econômicos e sociodemográficos das mulheres que acessaram o Serviço de Reprodução Assistida de um hospital universitário, encaminhadas pela atenção básica, e discutir as condições que fazem com que as usuárias adiem o tratamento ou desistam dele, com destaque no quesito raça/cor das usuárias. Métodos: Estudo transversal, em que a totalidade das usuárias que deram entrada no programa do Serviço de Reprodução Assistida de um hospital universitário, de janeiro de 2013 a março de 2014, foram entrevistadas presencialmente (145). Na segunda etapa do trabalho, em outubro e novembro de 2015, foi feito contato por telefone, com as mulheres que já haviam participado da primeira entrevista, com o intuito de compreender as dificuldades, o sucesso ou o insucesso do tratamento e as razões para a não permanência no programa. Resultados: Foi observado que as mulheres pretas/pardas tiveram acesso e permaneceram no serviço, em proporções semelhantes às mulheres brancas, de acordo com a representatividade dessa raça/cor no Estado do Rio Grande do Sul. O estudo mostrou uma desistência de 35% antes mesmo do início do tratamento e um abandono de 30% durante o tratamento, o principal motivo foi de ordem financeira. Conclusão: Apesar do custo elevado dos medicamentos, existe fila de espera para o atendimento, embora, paradoxalmente, ocorra um número expressivo de desistências e abandonos do tratamento.(AU)


Objective: To characterize racial, economic and socio-demographic aspects of women who accessed Assisted Reproduction Service at a university hospital, referred by primary care, and to discuss the conditions that cause the users to postpone or quit treatment, highlighting the item of user's race/color. Methods: It was performed a cross-sectional study in which all of the users that entered the Assisted Reproduction Service program, from January 2013 to March 2014, were interviewed in person (145 women). In the second stage of the work, in October and November 2015, telephone contact was made with women who had participated in the first interview, in order to understand the difficulties, success or failure of treatment and the reasons for not persisting in the program. Results: It was observed that the black women had access and remained in the service in proportions similar to white women, according to the representativity of this race/color in the state of Rio Grande do Sul The second stage showed abandonment of 35% even before the start of treatment, and 30% during the treatment, and financial issues being the main reason for quiting. Conclusion: Despite the high cost of medicines,there is a waiting listfor the service, although, paradoxically, there is an expressive number of abandonment.(AU)

ABSTRACT

O objetivo do trabalho foi identificar as características das gestantes atendidas em consulta de enfermagem no pré-natal realizado por enfermeira obstétrica em consulta ambulatorial, e compará-las, no período de 1972 a 2009. Os dados sociodemográficos e obstétricos foram coletados das fichas de gestantes, preenchidas durante a consulta de enfermagem. Um total de 1245 fichas foi analisado, sendo 208 (16,7%) da década de 1970, 323 (25,9%) de 1980, 329 (26,4%) de 1990 e 385 (30,0%) de 2000. Encontrou-se diferença significativa entre as décadas anteriores com a de 2000, em relação ao número maior de: gestações de alto risco, número de consultas de enfermagem e de ecografias realizadas durante o pré-natal. Observa-se que as características das gestantes modificaram-se, ao longo do tempo, bem como o atendimento realizado por enfermeira obstétrica em consulta de enfermagem ambulatorial, mantendo-se vinculado às demandas das usuárias e às determinações legais.

The aim of the work was to identify characteristics of pregnant women cared for by an obstetric nurse in a visit to the prenatal outpatient nursing service and compare these over the period from 1972 to 2009. Sociodemographic and obstetric data were collected from the forms completed by the pregnant patients during their visit to the nursing service. A total of 1245 forms were analyzed, 208 (16.7%) being from the 1970s, 323 (25.9%) from the 1980s, 329 (26.4%) from the 1990s, and 385 (30.0%) from year 2000. A significant difference was found between the previous decades and year 2000 in relation to the greater number of high-risk pregnancies, number of nursing consultations and obstetric ultrasounds performed during the prenatal exam. The characteristics of pregnant women were observed to change over time, as well as the care provided by the obstetric nurse during visits to the outpatient nursing service, remaining associated with the demands of patients and legal resolutions.

ABSTRACT

Trata-se de um estudo que verificou a relação entre as características demográficas e clínicas com os diagnósticos de enfermagem definidos durante a consulta com enfermeira em ambulatório de um hospital geral. É um estudo transversal, que avaliou 237 consultas de enfermagem de pacientes atendidos no Programa de Saúde da Mulher (46 em enfermagem obstétrica e 24 em enfermagem em mastologia) e 167 no Programa de Educação em Diabetes Melito. Foram identificados 49 diagnósticos de enfermagem. Os mais frequentes no programa de saúde da mulher foram: Conhecimento deficiente, Conforto prejudicado, Integridade tissular prejudicada e Ansiedade. No programa de educação em diabetes: Controle ineficaz do regime terapêutico e Nutrição desequilibrada: mais do que as necessidades corporais. Foi encontrada associação significativa entre os diagnósticos mais frequentes com determinadas características demográficas e clínicas. Os resultados confirmaram que a identificação dos diagnósticos de enfermagem durante a consulta pode propiciar acurácia nos focos de cuidado ambulatorial.


El objetivo de este estudio fue verificar la relación entre las características demográficas y clínicas con diagnósticos de enfermería definidos durante la consulta con una enfermera en un ambulatorio de un hospital general. Este es un estudio transversal que evaluó 237 consultas de enfermería de los pacientes atendidos en el Programa de Salud de la Mujer (46 en enfermería obstétrica y 24 en enfermería en mastología) y 167 en Programa de Educación en Diabetes Mellitus. Se identificó un total de 49 diagnósticos de enfermería. Los más frecuentes en el Programa de Salud de la Mujer fueron: Déficit de conocimientos, Deterioro de la comodidad, Deterioro de la integridad del tejido y Ansiedad; y en el programa de Educación en Diabetes Mellitus fueron: Manejo inefectivo del régimen terapéutico y Nutrición alterada: más que las necesidades corpóreas. Se encontró una asociación significativa entre los diagnósticos más frecuentes con algunas características demográficas y clínicas. Este estudio confirma que la definición de los diagnósticos de enfermería durante la consulta puede proporcionar exactitud en el foco de la atención en el ambulatorio.


This study was aimed at verifying the relationship between demographic and clinical features and nursing diagnoses established during a nurse consultation in a general hospital. This is a cross-sectional study that assessed 237 nursing consultations of patients in two different programs: Women's Health (46 in obstetrical nursing and 24 in mastology nursing) and 167 in Diabetes Mellitus Education. A total of 49 nursing diagnoses were identified. The most frequent in the women's health program were: Knowledge Deficit, Impaired Comfort, Impaired Tissue Integrity and Anxiety; in the program of diabetes education were: Ineffective Therapeutic Regimen Management, and Imbalanced Nutrition: more than body requirements. There was a significant association between the most common diagnoses with certain demographic and clinical features. The results confirmed that the identification of the nursing diagnoses during the consultation may provide accuracy in the focus of outpatient care.

ABSTRACT

This study aims to identify the knowledge women in childbirth (puerperas) have regarding gestational hypertension disease (GHD), to learn how they perceive its risk and gravity, and to understand the repercussions of GHD for these women and their families. This is a descriptive exploratory study using qualitative research methods. Data collection took place through individual semi-structured interviews with ten women in childbirth (puerperas) who were diagnosed with GHD. The analysis of the data was performed using Content Analysis. Thematic categories emerged addressing the women's knowledge of GHD; how they perceive diagnosis and the professional care offered; and the repercussions GHD had for them and their families. The study highlights the necessity to rethink and to reorganize the model of perinatal care, not only at the tertiary level but also at primary healthcare centers.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: With the development of medical technology, many countries around the world have been implementing ethical guidelines and laws regarding Medically Assisted Reproduction (MAR). A physician's reproductive decisions are not solely based on technical criteria but are also influenced by society values. Therefore, the aim of this study was to analyze the factors prioritized by MAR professionals when deciding on whether to accept to perform assisted reproduction and to show any existing cultural differences. METHODS: Cross-sectional study involving 224 healthcare professionals working with assisted reproduction in Brazil, Italy, Germany and Greece. Instrument used for data collection: a questionnaire, followed by the description of four special MAR cases (a single woman, a lesbian couple, an HIV discordant couple and gender selection) which included case-specific questions regarding the professionals' decision on whether to perform the requested procedure as well as the following factors: socio-demographic variables, moral and legal values as well as the technical aspects which influence decision-making. RESULTS: Only the case involving a single woman who wishes to have a child (without the intention of having a partner in the future) demonstrated significant differences. Therefore, the study was driven towards the results of this case specifically. The analyses we performed demonstrated that professionals holding a Master's Degree, those younger in age, female professionals, those having worked for less time in reproduction, those in private clinics and Brazilian health professionals all had a greater tendency to perform the procedure in that case. A multivariate analysis demonstrated that the reasons for the professional's decision to perform the procedure were the woman's right to gestate and the duty of MAR professionals to help her. The professionals who decided not to perform the procedure identified the woman's marital status and the child's right to a father as the reason to withhold treatment. CONCLUSION: The study indicates differences among countries in the evaluation of the single woman case. It also discloses the undervaluation of bioethics committees and the need for a greater participation of healthcare professionals in debates on assisted reproduction laws.

ABSTRACT

Objetivou-se identificar o conhecimento das puérperas em relação à doença hipertensiva específica da gestação (DHEG), conhecer suas percepções quanto ao risco e gravidade da doença e conhecer as repercussões da DHEG para estas mulheres e suas famílias. Trata-se de uma pesquisa qualitativa na perspectiva de um estudo exploratório descritivo. A coleta de informações ocorreu com dez puérperas com diagnóstico de DHEG por meio de entrevistas individuais semi-estruturadas, analisadas conforme referencial da Análise de Conteúdo. Assim, emergiram categorias temáticas abordando o conhecimento sobre DHEG, percepções sobre o diagnóstico e o cuidado profissional, e repercussões da DHEG para as mulheres e suas famílias. O estudo aponta a necessidade de se repensar e reorganizar o modelo de assistência perinatal, não apenas a nível terciário, mas nas unidades básicas de saúde.

ABSTRACT

O presente estudo tem como objetivo avaliar a interaçäo mäe-bebê a partir de diferentes tempos de contato no período pós-parto imediato. A idéia do estudo era a comparaçäo de dois grupos: um que seguiria a rotina do Centro Obstétrico do Hospital de Clínicas de Porto Alegre e outro ao qual se ofereceria um tempo extra de contato. Devido à ocorrência de efeito Hawthorne, perdeu-se o grupo-controle (näo houve diferença no tempo de contato das duplas em cada um dos grupos durante o período sensível). Assim, as 29 duplas que efetivamente entraram na pesquisa foram acompanhadas, sendo avaliadas as interaçöes, como um único grupo, já que o tempo extra de contato e o apoio às mäes no período de pós-parto imediato foram os mesmos, o que pode ter contribuído para os bons resultados das interaçöes. Após o primeiro, o sexto e o décimo segundo meses de vida do bebê, as duplas apresentaram, respectivamente, taxa de 95 por cento, 100 por cento e 92,8 por cento de boas e muito boas interaçöes. Investigaçöes futuras nesta área, com amostras maiores, devem ser realizadas, fornecendo outras contribuiçöes aos profissionais da saúde, gerando conhecimento capaz de auxiliar na prevençäo de doenças mentais, abandono e abuso, a baixo custo

ABSTRACT

O presente estudo tem como objetivo avaliar a interacao mae-bebe a partir de diferentes tempos de contato no periodo pos-parto imediato. A ideia inicial do estudo era a comparacao de dois grupos: um que seguiria a rotina do Centro Obstetrico do Hospital de Clinicas de Porto Alegre e outro ao qual se ofereceria um tempo extra de contato. Devido a ocorrencia de efeito Hawthorne, perdeu-se o grupo-controle (nao houve diferenca no tempo de contato das duplas em cada um dos grupos durante o periodo sensivel). Assim, as 29 duplas que efetivamente entraram na pesquisa foram acompanhadas, sendo avaliadas as interacoes, como um unico grupo, ja que o tempo extra de contato e o apoio as maes no periodo de pos-parto imediato foram os mesmos, o que pode ter contribuido para os bons resultados das interacoes. Apos o primeiro, o sexto e o decimo segundo mes de vida do bebe, as duplas apresentaram, respectivamente, taxa de 95 por cento, 100 por cento e 92,8 por cento de boas e muito boas interacoes. Investigacoes futuras nesta area, com amostras maiores, devem ser realizadas, fornecendo outras contribuicoes aos profissionais da saude gerando conhecimento capaz auterar na preservacao de doencas mentais, abandono e abuso, a baixo custo.

ABSTRACT

O objetivo deste trabalho é determinar a confiabilidade e a validade concordante de um instrumento para medir a interaçäo precoce mäe-bebê durante a amamentaçäo. O instrumento usado foi a sub-escala de reciprocidade di dica da Escala de Observaçäo da Interaçäo Mäe-Bebê Durante a Alimentaçäo; a amostra estudada constou de 29 duplas mäe-bebê. A associaçäo entre a classificaçäo da interaçäo pela avaliaçäo limite e a média da pontuaçäo dos quatro juízes foi feita usando o coeficiente de conclusäo de Spearman (rs). A confiabilidade foi de 0,67 para p < 0,01. A sensibilidade e a especificidade do instrumento foram, respectivamente, 35 por cento e 93 por cento. Foi encontrada associaçäo significante entre a classificaçäo da interaçäo pela avaliaçäo clínica qualitativa e as pontuaçoes na subescala (p = 0,0008). A relevância clínica destes achados é discutida, especialmente para um país com as características do Brasil

ABSTRACT

O numero de mulheres contaminadas pelo virus da imunodeficiencia humana (VIH) e cada vez maior. Cinquenta pacientes atendidas consecutivamente no ambulatorio de DST/SIDA do Hospital de Clinicas de Porto Alegre, no periodo de janeiro a maio de 1993 sao analisadas com o objetivo de delinear o seu perfil sexual e os possiveis meios implicados na transmissao do VIH. A maior parte (70 por cento) acreditam terem se contaminado atraves de relacoes heterossexuais e 18 por cento atraves do uso de drogas injetaveis. Vinte mulheres relatam outras doencas sexualmente transmissiveis (DST) e as mais comuns sao: sifilis, condilomatose, herpes simples e gonorreia. Apesar de ser um estudo que avalia respostas de questionario, esta claro o papel das relacoes heterossexuais como modo principal de contagio nas mulheres e a forte associacao das DST com o VIH
