NEWS2, S/F-ratio and ROX-index at emergency department for the prediction of adverse outcomes in COVID-19 patients: An external validation study.

BACKGROUND: In the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, the early and accurate identification of patients at risk of deterioration was crucial in overcrowded and resource-limited emergency departments. This study conducts an external validation for the evaluation of the performance of the National Early Warning Score 2 (NEWS2), the S/F ratio, and the ROX index at ED admission in a large cohort of COVID-19 patients from Colombia, South America, assessing the net clinical benefit with decision curve analysis. METHODS: A prospective cohort study was conducted on 6907 adult patients with confirmed COVID-19 admitted to a tertiary care ED in Colombia. The study evaluated the diagnostic performance of NEWS2, S/F ratio, and ROX index scores at ED admission using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC) for discrimination, calibration, and decision curve analysis for the prediction of intensive care unit admission, invasive mechanical ventilation, and in-hospital mortality. RESULTS: We included 6907 patients who presented to the ED with confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection from March 2020 to November 2021. Mean age was 51 (35-65) years and 50.4% of patients were males. The rate of intensive care unit admission was 28%, and in-hospital death was 9.8%. All three scores have good discriminatory performance for the three outcomes based on the AUROC. S/F ratio showed miscalibration at low predicted probabilities and decision curve analysis indicated that the NEWS2 score provided a greater net benefit compared to other scores across at a 10% threshold to decide ED admission at a high-level of care facility. CONCLUSIONS: The NEWS2, S/F ratio, and ROX index at ED admission have good discriminatory performances in COVID-19 patients for the prediction of adverse outcomes, but the NEWS2 score has a higher net benefit underscoring its clinical utility in optimizing patient management and resource allocation in emergency settings.

Associations between valenced news and affect in daily life: Experimental and ecological momentary assessment approaches.

In 203 (mean age = 38.04 years, SD=12.05) participants, we tested the association between valenced news and affect using a 14-day, smartphone-based ecological momentary assessment protocol consisting of two components: 1) a once-per-day experimental protocol in which participants were exposed to good news and bad news stories and 2) a four-times-per-day protocol capturing ecological fluctuations in news consumption. Across both protocols, we replicate findings that consumption of positively valenced news is associated with increased positive affect and decreased negative affect while consumption of negatively valenced news is associated with increased negative affect and decreased positive affect. By integrating the ecological momentary assessment data with network science methodologies, news selection and news effects were modeled simultaneously, uncovering selection processes whereby current positive affect, but not negative affect, predicted future valenced news consumption. Altogether, findings indicate that everyday news consumption influences positive and negative affect and may serve mood management functions for positive but not negative affect.

Influences on COVID-19 Vaccine Adherence among Pregnant Women: The Role of Internet Access and Pre-Vaccination Emotions.

INTRODUCTION: The onset of the COVID-19 pandemic brought about global uncertainties and fears, escalating the dissemination of fake news. This study aims to analyze the impact of fake news on COVID-19 vaccine adherence among pregnant women, providing crucial insights for effective communication strategies during the pandemic. METHODS: A cross-sectional, exploratory study was conducted with 113 pregnant women under care at a Women's Health Reference Center. Data analysis included relative frequency and odds ratio to assess the relationship between sociodemographic and behavioral variables regarding vaccination. RESULTS: In the behavioral context of vaccination, internet access shows a significant association with decision-making, influencing vaccine refusal due to online information. Nuances in the odds ratios results highlight the complexity of vaccine hesitancy, emphasizing the importance of information quality. Pre-vaccination sentiments include stress (87.61%), fear (50.44%), and anxiety (40.7%), indicating the need for sensitive communication strategies. DISCUSSION: Results revealed that pregnant women with higher education tend to adhere more to vaccination. Exposure to news about vaccine inefficacy had a subtle association with hesitancy, while finding secure sources was negatively associated with hesitancy. The behavioral complexity in the relationship between online information access and vaccination decision underscores the need for effective communication strategies. CONCLUSIONS: In the face of this challenging scenario, proactive strategies, such as developing specific campaigns for pregnant women, are essential. These should provide clear information, debunk myths, and address doubts. A user-centered approach, understanding their needs, is crucial. Furthermore, ensuring information quality and promoting secure sources are fundamental measures to strengthen trust in vaccination and enhance long-term public health.

Oral cancer diagnosis communication: Impact of an educational intervention using the SPIKES protocol.

OBJECTIVE: This study evaluated the influence of a single educational intervention on the perception and knowledge of strategies for communicating oral cancer diagnoses. METHODS: A educational intervention, 72 dentists and 41 dental undergraduates participated in the 'Maio Vermelho Project', a continuing education activity. Participants completed a 14-question online questionnaire concerning their experiences and perceptions of delivering difficult news. The educational intervention featured an interview illustrating the SPIKES protocol, broadcast on YouTube. RESULTS: Participants had a mean age of 40 years. A minority (21.2%) had encountered or experienced communicating an oral cancer diagnosis. Exposure to lectures on this topic during their education was uncommon (22.1%) but more prevalent among students. After the intervention, confidence in communicating a cancer diagnosis (29.2%) and addressing the patient's family (30.1%) in line with the SPIKES protocol increased. CONCLUSION: A training deficit persists in delivering cancer diagnoses, highlighting the need for educational interventions to empower students and professionals in this critical procedure. Integration of this topic into the dental undergraduate curriculum is imperative. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Effectively communicating a cancer diagnosis poses challenges to healthcare professionals, impacting treatment outcomes. Implementing educational interventions ensures that professionals are well prepared to navigate this complex task, ultimately improving patient care.

External validation of two clinical prediction models for mortality in COVID-19 patients (4C and NEWS2), in three centers in Medellín, Colombia: Assessing the impact of vaccination over time.

OBJECTIVES: External validation of the 4C and NEWS2 scores for the prediction of in-hospital mortality in COVID-19 patients, and evaluation of its operational performance in two time periods: before and after the start of the vaccination program in Colombia. METHODS: Retrospective cohort in three high complexity hospitals in the city of Medellín, Colombia, between June 2020 and April 2022. RESULTS: The areas under the ROC curve (AUC) for the 4C mortality risk score and the NEWS2 were 0.75 (95% CI 0.73-0.78) and 0.68 (95% CI 0.66-0.71), respectively. For the 4C score, the AUC for the first and second periods was 0.77 (95% CI 0.74-0.80) and 0.75 (95% CI 0.71-0.78); whilst for the NEWS2 score, it was 0.68 (95% CI 0.65-0.71) and 0.69 (95% CI 0.64-0.73). The calibration for both scores was adequate, albeit with reduced performance during the second period. CONCLUSIONS: The 4C mortality risk score proved to be the more adequate predictor of in-hospital mortality in COVID-19 patients in this Latin American population. The operational performance during both time periods remained similar, which shows its utility notwithstanding major changes, including vaccination, as the pandemic evolved.

Intersections in the digital society: cancel culture, fake news, and contemporary public discourse.

This article critically examines the intricate relationship between cancel culture and fake news, shedding light on their collective impact on current societies. The changing social landscape, marked by the transition from the "network society" to the "platform society," has given rise to unprecedented phenomena such as cancel culture. Rooted in social media complaints, cancel culture intersects with the dissemination of intentionally created false information, forming a complex web of dynamics. The study explores the multifaceted nature of cancel culture, its unintended consequences and the nuanced definitions surrounding it. The synthesis of erasure culture and fake news prompts critical reflections on the democratization of information, the protection of fundamental rights, and the potential risks to democracies of an unbridled online narrative. As digital networks continue to play a central role in everyday life, understanding and addressing these challenges is essential to maintaining a balanced discourse that upholds democratic values.

[Analysis of journalistic framing during the Covid-19 pandemic in Colombia's leading newspapers: El Tiempo and El Espectador]. / Análisis del encuadramiento periodístico en tiempos de pandemia de covid-19 en los principales diarios de Colombia: El Tiempo y El Espectador.

This study presents a content analysis of headlines featured on the front pages of Colombia's two most prominent newspapers during the COVID-19 health emergency. The objective was to examine the framing strategies employed by El Tiempo and El Espectador during their journalistic coverage of the initial phase of the pandemic. Criteria for analysis included informational tone, thematic approaches, grammatical structures in the headlines, information sources, coverage scope, and media perspective. Regarding interpretative frameworks, both newspapers predominantly adopted a negative approach towards the crisis and the structural impact the pandemic had on the country, especially within a context marked by uncertainty and tension. Primary themes were associated with economic and social aspects. The most prominent terms in the headlines during this period were linked to the pandemic, Covid-19, and the virus, concepts that consistently maintained a significant presence in the media agenda of the studied outlets.

Newspaper framing of motor vehicle crashes and road safety in Argentina.

The media plays a key role in shaping the public's perception of road safety. This study analyzes the newspaper coverage and framing of motor vehicle crashes (MVCs) and road safety in Argentina, South America. The content of 304 articles published by 15 newspapers in November 2020 was reviewed. The results show that episodically framed news stories (focused on a single event or incident) prevail over thematically framed articles. MVCs are presented primarily as 'police' events and tend to receive more coverage when fatalities are involved. There is limited information provided on contextual and risk factors, and road safety advice is rarely included. Speeding, infrastructure, alcohol and other human-related variables are the most cited risk factors. Very few articles mention the use of protective devices (seat-belt, helmet and child restraint system). Although motorcyclists represent 40% of RTC deaths in Argentina, only 20% of the news coverage was about them. News coverage was quite similar in national and regional newspapers. There is an opportunity for the media to help build a better road safety culture, but significant changes in news framing are required. Practical recommendations for editors, journalists and road safety practitioners are provided.

Breaking bad news in ophthalmology: a literature review / Comunicação de más notícias em oftalmologia: uma revisão de literatura

ABSTRACT Medical specialties have recognized that breaking bad news assists clinical practice by mitigating the impact of difficult conversations. This scenario also encourages various studies on breaking bad news in ophthalmology since certain ocular diagnoses can be considered bad news. Thus, the objective is to review the scientific literature on breaking bad news in ophthalmology. The literature databases like MEDLINE/PUBMED, EMBASE, LILACS, SCOPUS, COCHRANE, and SCIELO, were screened for related research publications. Two independent reviewers read all the articles and short-listed the most relevant ones. Seven articles, in the formats of original article, review, editorial, oral communication, and correspondence, were reviewed. Conclusively it reveals that ophthalmologists are concerned with communicating bad news effectively but lack related studies. Nevertheless, there is a growing realization that training in breaking bad news can increase physicians' confidence during communication, thus, benefiting the therapeutic relationship with the patient and his family. Therefore, it would be valuable to include breaking bad news training in the curriculum of residencies.

RESUMO O reconhecimento sobre a comunicação de más notícias como mitigadora de conversas difíceis por outras especialidades médicas, incentiva o estudo desta temática na oftalmologia. Sendo assim, o objetivo deste estudo é revisar a produção de pesquisas científicas sobre a comunicação de más notícias em oftalmologia. Para isso, foi realizada uma revisão de literatura. As bases de dados utilizadas foram MEDLINE/PUBMED, EMBASE, LILACS, SCOPUS, COCHRANE e SCIELO. Dois revisores independentes leram todos os artigos e selecionaram a amostra final. Sete artigos foram escolhidos nos formatos de artigo original, revisão, editorial, comunicação oral e correspondência. Os oftalmologistas estão preocupados em comunicar as más notícias de forma eficaz, mas faltam estudos sobre o tema. No entanto, há uma crescente percepção de que o treinamento de comunicação de más notícias aumenta a confiança dos médicos na comunicação, beneficiando a relação terapêutica. Portanto, seria valioso incluir este treinamento no currículo das residências.

Adherence to Covid-19 vaccination during the pandemic: the influence of fake news / Adhesión a la vacunación contra la Covid-19 durante la pandemia: influencia de las fake news / Adesão à vacinação contra a Covid-19 durante a pandemia: influência de fake news

ABSTRACT Objectives: to understand how fake news has influenced adherence to Covid-19 immunization, from the perspective of health professionals. Methods: a qualitative, descriptive-exploratory study was conducted in Campo Grande - MS. Twenty nursing professionals working in vaccine rooms or managing immunobiologicals participated through semi-structured interviews. The interviews were audio-recorded, fully transcribed, and subjected to thematic content analysis. Results: two categories emerged in which the professionals highlighted an increase in vaccine hesitancy among the population, influenced by fake news and denialist actions, which negatively interfered with the population's trust in vaccines and in the professionals administering them. Final Considerations: concerns about vaccine safety and denialist actions by authorities and media outlets can contribute to the phenomenon of non-vaccination. The valorization of science, the promotion of educational actions, and raising public awareness about immunization were presented as strategies to increase vaccine coverage

Análisis del protocolo SPIKES desde la perspectiva del paciente oncológico: Estudio prospectivo / Further exploring the SPIKES protocol from the perspective of oncology patients in terms of personality traits

Background: Establishing adequate communication is part of the therapeutic process and of the integral approach to the oncology patient. The SPIKES protocol defines a series of general recommendations aimed at facilitating this process. To date, there is no questionnaire that makes it possible to personalize the communication of bad news in a systematized way. Some studies support the hypothesis that personality influences the communicative modes; therefore, the aim of this work is to try to establish nuances in the SPIKES protocol based on personality traits. Methods: Single-center, observational, prospective, descriptive and correlational study, conducted on a sample of 51 oncology patients based on a personality questionnaire and a communication questionnaire (based on the SPIKES protocol). Results: The scores recorded in all domains of the communication questionnaire were high. There was no significant correlation with the personality questionnaire domains. Conclusions: There are certain needs tending towards universality in the communication of bad news that the SPIKES protocol adequately reflects; it can be considered the gold standard. However, it is not possible to establish nuances in it according to personality traits based on the results of this work. In the strategy phase, attention should be paid to life and family planning in the context of oncologic disease.

Introducción: Establecer una adecuada comunicación forma parte del proceso terapéutico y del abordaje integral del paciente oncológico. El protocolo SPIKES emite una serie de recomendaciones generales destinadas a facilitar este proceso. No existe hasta la fecha un cuestionario que permita personalizar de una manera sistematizada la comunicación de malas noticias. Existen estudios que apoyan la hipótesis de que la personalidad influye en los modos comunicativos. Por ello, el objetivo de este trabajo fue intentar establecer matices en el protocolo SPIKES con base en los rasgos de personalidad. Materiales y métodos: Estudio unicéntrico, observacional, prospectivo, descriptivo y correlacional, realizado sobre una muestra de 51 pacientes oncológicos con base en un cuestionario de personalidad y un cuestionario de comunicación, el cual se basa a su vez en el protocolo SPIKES. Resultados: Las puntuaciones registradas en todos los dominios del cuestionario de comunicación fueron elevadas. Ninguna correlación con los dominios del cuestionario de personalidad resultó significativa. Conclusiones: Existen determinadas necesidades tendentes a la universalidad en torno a la comunicación de malas noticias que el protocolo SPIKES recoge adecuadamente, por lo que puede considerarse el gold standard. No se pueden establecer matices en este cuestionario en función de los rasgos de personalidad con base en los resultados de este trabajo. En la fase de estrategia, conviene prestar atención a la planificación vital y familiar en el seno de la enfermedad oncológica. Palabras Clave: protocolo SPIKES, comunicación de malas noticias, psicooncología, medicina personalizada, relación médico-paciente.

"Todo homem precisa de uma mãe", mas nem todo merece uma: o cuidado em notícias sobre o sistema penitenciário mineiro / "Every man needs a mother", but not everyone deserves one: care in news about the penitentiary system of Minas Gerais / "Todo hombre necesita una madre", pero no todo la merece: el cuidado en las noticias sobre el sistema penitenciario en Minas Gerais

Resumo Enquanto a literatura sobre cuidado costuma ignorar suas possíveis imbricações com a violência e as atividades realizadas fora dos domicílios, estudos sobre prisões tendem a subestimar a sua relevância como cuidado no cotidiano destas instituições. Neste mote, analisamos o conteúdo de notícias sobre o sistema prisional mineiro publicadas online pelo jornal "O Tempo" durante o período de 2005 a 2019 para entender os significados, protagonistas, relações e trocas que são próprios ao cuidado no sistema prisional. A partir do conceito "circuitos de cuidado", buscamos demonstrar que, no contexto de privação de liberdade, cuidar e ser cuidado se realiza somente quando há "merecimento" dos dois polos desta relação.

Abstract While the literature on caregiving tends to ignore its possible imbrications with violence and activities executed out of households, studies on prisons tend to underestimate care as part of the daily life of these institutions. In this motto, we analyze the content of news about the prison system in Minas Gerais published online by the newspaper "O Tempo" during the period from 2005 to 2019 to understand the meanings, protagonists, relationships and exchanges that are proper of care into the prison system. Based on the concept "circuits of care", in this paper, we seek to demonstrate that, in the context of deprivation of liberty, caring and being cared are fulfilled only when there is some "deserving" from both sides"".

Resumen Mientras que la literatura sobre el cuidado tiende a ignorar sus posibles imbricaciones con la violencia y las actividades realizadas fuera del hogar, los estudios sobre las prisiones tienden a subestimar su importancia como cuidado en la vida cotidiana de estas instituciones. Teniendo esto en cuenta, analizamos el contenido de las noticias sobre el sistema penitenciario de Minas Gerais publicadas en línea por el periódico «O Tempo¼ entre 2005 y 2019, con el fin de comprender los significados, los protagonistas,elaciónes y los intercambios propios del cuidado en el sistema penitenciario. A partir del concepto de «circuitos de cuidado¼, en este trabajo buscamos demostrar que, en el contexto de la privación de libertad, cuidar y ser cuidado construyen el circuito y sólo realizan lo que llamamos «cuidado como mérito¼ para los dos polos de esta relación.

Erros de medicação na mídia brasileira / Medication errors in the brazilian media

Objetivos: identificar e descrever as notícias sobre erros de medicação ocorridos no Brasil e divulgados na mídia digital brasileira. Metodológia: pesquisa de caráter exploratório, com dados coletados em notícias de mídias digitais do Brasil entre 2015 e 2019. A busca das notícias sobre erros de medicação foi realizada no Google®. Os casos divulgados na mídia foram descritos conforme o tipo e a classificação do erro, medicamento e profissional envolvido na ocorrência do erro, características do paciente que sofreu o erro e local onde o erro ocorreu. Resultados: dos 20 erros noticiados identificados na busca, foram encontrados 11 casos de erros com morte (55,0%), seis casos de erros com dano (30,0%) e três casos de erros sem danos (15,0%). Dos 23 pacientes envolvidos nos erros, 14 pertenciam a grupos de extremos etários, sendo nove pacientes pediátricos (39,1%) e cinco pacientes geriátricos (21,8%). Quanto ao tipo de erro, quatro casos noticiados envolvendo erros de prescrição (20,0%), cinco reportando erros de dispensação (25,0%), 10 erros de administração (50,0%), e um envolvendo erro de dispensação e administração concomitantemente (5,0%). Dentre os 11 casos de erros com morte do paciente, oito traziam a informação sobre qual medicamento estava envolvido no erro, sendo seis deles considerados medicamentos potencialmente perigosos (MPP). Conclusão: os resultados do presente estudo apontam para a necessidade de implementação de melhorias nos estabelecimentos de saúde em geral ­ farmácias, drogarias, hospitais, centros de saúde ­ no que tange a prevenção de erros de medicação. Para isso, devem ser priorizadas iniciativas envolvendo os sistemas de medicação com elevada efetividade, sobretudo em contextos de situações de alto risco como uso de MPP e cuidado a pacientes em extremos etários

Aims: to identify and describe the news about medication errors that occurred in Brazil and were published in the Brazilian digital media. Methods: exploratory research, with data collected in news from digital media in Brazil, between 2015 and 2019. The search for news about medication errors was carried out on Google®. The cases published in the media were described according to the type and classification of the error, medication and professional involved in the occurrence of the error, characteristics of the patient who suffered the error and place where the error occurred. Results: of the 20 reported errors identified in the search, 11 cases of errors with death (55.0%), six cases of errors with harm (30.0%) and three cases of errors without harm (15.0%) were found. Of the 23 patients involved in the errors, 14 belonged to extreme age groups, nine pediatric patients (39.1%) and five geriatric patients (21.8%). As for the type of error, four reported cases involving prescription errors (20.0%), five reporting dispensing errors (25.0%), 10, administration errors (50.0%) and one involving concurrent dispensing and administration error (5.0%). Among the 11 cases of errors resulting in patient death, eight contained information about which medication was involved in the error, six of which were considered high alert medications. Conclusions: the results of this study point to the need to implement improvements in health institutions in general - pharmacies, drugstores, hospitals, health centers - with regard to the prevention of medication errors. For this, initiatives involving medication systems with high effectiveness should be prioritized, especially in contexts of high-risk situations such as the use of high alert medications and care for patients at extremes of age

La posverdad en América Latina y el Caribe: Una perspectiva netnográfica de la agnogénesis / Post-truth in Latin America and the Caribbean: A netnographic perspective of agnogenesis

RESUMEN En la actualidad, la ignorancia, aunque útil para aspirar a la verdad, se ha convertido en un espacio vacío, donde las verdades existentes son modificadas a través de las noticias falsas o posverdad, estrategia de la agnogénesis. El objetivo de este estudio fue identificar la presencia del fenómeno de la posverdad en 26 países de América Latina y el Caribe (ALC). Los aspectos metodológicos corresponden a una perspectiva netnográfica. Se utilizaron técnicas de análisis cualitativo y cuantitativo. Se realizó una búsqueda y análisis de publicaciones científicas en de bases de datos e información de los organismos Transparencia Internacional, Banco Mundial y Observatorio de Infodemia COVID-19. Los resultados permitieron determinar que la posverdad es un fenómeno ampliamente presente y relevante en ALC, difundida a través de los diversos medios de comunicación, pero con importancia relevante de las redes sociales. En ALC, la vulnerabilidad a la agnogénesis se correlacionó con la alta percepción de la corrupción por parte de la población. Se requiere profundizar en el estudio del fenómeno con enfoques multidisciplinarios, considerando la diversidad de contextos en la región.

ABSTRACT Nowadays, ignorance, although useful to aspire to truth, has become an empty space where existing truths are modified through fake news or post-truth, a strategy of agnogenesis. The objective of the study was to identify the presence of the post-truth phenomenon in 26 countries in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC). The methodological aspects correspond to a netnographic perspective. Qualitative and quantitative analysis techniques were used. A search and analysis of scientific publications in databases and information from Transparency International, the World Bank and the Observatory of Infodemics COVID-19 was carried out. The results made it possible to determine that post-truth is a widely present and relevant phenomenon in LAC, disseminated through the various media, but with relevant importance of social networks. In LAC, vulnerability to agnogenesis correlated with the high perception of corruption by the population. Further study of the phenomenon is required with multidisciplinary approaches, considering the diversity of contexts in the region.

O efeito da polarização política na crença em notícias falsas / The effect of political polarization on belief in fake news

A polarização política pode ser entendida como o afastamento severo de grupos com pensamentos e sentimentos opostos aos do seu grupo político. No cenário brasileiro, a polarização está presente em diversos contextos, principalmente no contexto político e pode ser capaz de influenciar o endosso de notícias falsas. Buscando entender as fake news em um contexto de polarização política, o presente artigo buscou avaliar a relação entre a polarização política e a crença em notícias falsas, tanto de esquerda quanto de direita. Para tanto, 211 participantes responderam um questionário contendo quatro instrumentos distintos: termômetro de sentimentos; avaliação de notícias; posicionamento político; e suscetibilidade às notícias falsas. Os resultados indicaram que os indivíduos tendem a acreditar em notícias falsas do seu próprio grupo político, embora participantes de direita apresentem uma maior tendência de endossar fake news em comparação com participantes de esquerda. De maneira geral, verificou-se que a polarização política afeta o endosso de fake news. Implicações para compreensão e combate às fake news são discutidas.

Political polarization can be understood as the strong alienation of groups with thoughts and feelings opposite to those of their political group. In the Brazilian scenario, polarization is present in different contexts, especially in the political context and can influence the endorsement of fake news. Seeking to understand fake news in the context of political polarization, the present article sought to evaluate the relationship between political polarization and belief in fake news, both on the left and on the right. To this end, 211 participants completed a questionnaire that included four different instruments: mood thermometer; news rating; political positioning; and susceptibility to fake news. The results indicate that individuals tend to believe fake news from their own political group, although participants from the right-wing participants are more likely to endorse fake news than participants to left-wing participants. Overall, political polarization was found to affect the endorsement of fake news. Implications for understanding and combating fake news are discussed.

Impactos da infodemia sobre a COVID-19 para profissionais de saúde no Brasil / Impacts of the infodemic on COVID-19 for Brazilian health professionals

Resumo O objetivo deste artigo é analisar os efeitos da infodemia relacionada à COVID-19 na perspectiva dos trabalhadores da saúde no Brasil em relação aos pacientes, mensurar os impactos das notícias falsas para profissionais de saúde e verificar a percepção das equipes multiprofissionais de saúde quanto ao posicionamento das autoridades. Estudo transversal vinculado à pesquisa Condições de Trabalho dos Profissionais da Saúde no Contexto da COVID-19 no Brasil. A amostra não probabilística, de abrangência nacional, incluiu 15.132 profissionais que atuaram na linha de frente do enfrentamento à COVID-19 em instituições de saúde de 2.200 municípios de todo o Brasil. Para 91% dos entrevistados, as fake news são um obstáculo no combate ao vírus Sars-CoV-2; 76,1% declararam ter atendido pacientes que expressaram fé em fake news sobre a COVID-19; 29,3% concordam que os posicionamentos das autoridades sanitárias sobre a COVID-19 foram consistentes e esclarecedores, e 62,6% discordam. Para os entrevistados, a infodemia sobre a COVID-19 confundiu os pacientes, prejudicou a adesão a medidas sanitárias fundamentais e estimulou comportamentos negativos da população em relação à pandemia. A falta de clareza dos posicionamentos das autoridades influiu no processo infodêmico sobre a COVID-19.

Abstract This article aims to analyze the effects of the COVID-19 infodemic from the perspective of Brazilian health workers regarding the patients, measure the impacts of fake news on health professionals, and verify the perception of health multidisciplinary teams regarding the authorities' stance. This cross-sectional study is nested in the research "Health Professionals' Working Conditions in the Brazilian Context of COVID-19". The nationwide non-probability sampling included 15,132 professionals who worked in the COVID-19 frontline in health institutions of 2,200 Brazilian municipalities. Approximately 91% of respondents believed that fake news is an obstacle in fighting the SARS-CoV-2 virus; 76.1% declared they had seen patients who expressed faith in fake news about COVID-19; 29.3% agreed that the health authorities' stance about COVID-19 was consistent and enlightening, and 62.6% disagreed about this. The respondents believe that the COVID-19 infodemic confused patients, impaired adherence to PHC measures, and stirred people's negative behavior vis-à-vis the pandemic. The lack of clarity of the authorities' stance influenced the COVID-19 infodemic process.
