Desafios relacionados ao clima organizacional da equipe de enfermagem de um hospital público - percepção dos enfermeiros / Challenges related to the organizational climate of the nursing team in a public hospital - nurses' perception

Resumo O ambiente organizacional está relacionado com o grau de motivação de seus colaboradores. Essa percepção é essencialmente sentida, não se vê e nem se toca, mas tem uma existência real. Este estudo objetiva identificar as dificuldades e potencialidades relacionadas ao clima organizacional dos servidores de enfermagem de um hospital público do Distrito Federal. Metodologicamente foi realizado um estudo descritivo e exploratório caracterizado por uma abordagem qualitativa. A análise de conteúdo temática conduziu a três dimensões interpretativas: ambiente e condições de trabalho; comunicação, relacionamento interpessoal e fluxos de trabalho; e motivação para a melhoria do ambiente de trabalho. Os resultados apontam para um déficit de recursos humanos, escassez de recursos materiais, insumos, estrutura física precária, além de problemas de relacionamento interpessoal, como a (des)valorização do profissional enfermeiro e da enfermagem. Os desafios postos para os gestores estão para além da dimensão técnica e estrutural, da complexidade tecnológica dos equipamentos sem manutenção, desdobra-se pela dimensão humana, pelos sentimentos e pelas necessidades não atendidas (de valorização) da enfermagem, que precisa ser cuidada, valorizada, ouvida e vista no seu processo de cuidar.

Abstract The organizational climate is related to the degree of motivation of its employees. This perception is essentially felt, it is neither seen nor touched, but it is real. This study aims to identify difficulties and potentialities related to the organizational climate of the nursing staff at a public hospital in the Federal District. Methodologically, a descriptive and exploratory study was carried out characterized by a qualitative approach. The thematic content analysis led to three interpretative dimensions: environment and working conditions; communication, interpersonal relationship and work flows; motivation to improve the work environment. The results indicate a deficit of human resources, scarcity of material resources, supplies, precarious physical structure, in addition to interpersonal relationship problems, such as the (de)valuation of professional nurses and nursing. The challenges posed to managers go beyond the technical and structural dimension, the technological complexity of equipment without maintenance, as it unfolds through the human dimension, feelings and unmet needs (of appreciation) of nursing, which needs to be cared for, valued, heard and seen in their care process.

Assessment of patient satisfaction level in the State University of Haiti Hospital and responsible factors: a cross-sectional mixed-methods study protocol.

INTRODUCTION: Over the past few years, the healthcare industry has undergone a significant transformation where patients' perceptions of healthcare have gained a huge importance in assessing quality. Considering that it is now highly competitive, their contentment is a vital aspect in improving performance. However, practitioners in developing countries have traditionally overlooked the importance of patient views in healthcare, and this neglect is particularly prevalent in low-resource settings such as the State University of Haiti Hospital. The aim of this study is to assess patient satisfaction and identify influencing factors. METHODS AND ANALYSIS: We will conduct a mixed-methods cross-sectional survey at Haiti's largest hospital centre from January to August 2024. First, patient satisfaction will be assessed using RAND Corporation's 18-Item-Patient Satisfaction Questionnaire, a valid self-administered questionnaire with strong potential for use in different settings. It will be translated into Creole and then tested in a pilot study. Second, a qualitative study based on individual interviews will explore patients' views on the care they have received. Data analysis will include descriptive statistics, χ2 tests, logistic regression and thematic analysis. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: Ethical approval is granted from the Laboratoire Médecine Ethique et Société. Findings will be published in a corresponding peer-reviewed journal, shared with hospital staff and students. Social media posts, blog posts and conference debates will also be considered.

Comparison of Free Flap Outcomes at a University Hospital versus County Hospital Setting for Head and Neck Reconstruction

Abstract Introduction Patients at public county hospitals often have poorer access to healthcare with advanced disease on presentation. These factors, along with limited resources at county hospitals, may have an impact on outcomes for patients requiring complex head and neck reconstruction. Objectives To delineate differences in the frequency of complications in two different care settings, a public county hospital and a private university hospital. Methods Retrospective review of otolaryngology patients at a university hospital compared with a publicly-funded county hospital. The main outcome measure was major complications including total flap loss or unplanned reoperation in 30 days. Secondary outcome measures included medical complications, partial flap loss, and unplanned hospital readmission in 30 days. Results In the county hospital sample (n = 58) free flap failure or reoperation occurred in 20.7% of the patients, and minor complications, in 36.2% of the patients. In the university hospital sample (n = 65) flap failure or reoperation occurred in 9.2% of the patients, and minor complications, in 12.3% of the patients. Patients at the private hospital who had surgery in the oropharynx were least likely to have minor complications. Conclusions Patients at the county hospital had a higher but not statistically significant difference in flap failure and reoperation than those at a university hospital, although the county hospital experienced more minor postoperative complications. This is likely multifactorial, and may be related to poorer access to primary care preoperatively, malnutrition, poorly controlled or undiagnosed medical comorbidities, and differences in hospital resources.

O direito à saúde e o déficit de profissionais de enfermagem nos hospitais públicos: uma análise das decisões do poder judiciário de Rondônia / The right to health and the deficit of nursing professionals in public hospitals: an analysis of the decisions of the judiciary of Rondônia / El derecho a la salud y el déficit de profesionales de enfermería en los hospitales públicos: un análisis de las decisiones del poder judicial de Rondônia

Objetivo: Analisar as decisões exaradas pelo Poder Judiciário de Rondônia, referente aos pedidos de provisão de profissionais de enfermagem para os hospitais públicos, com vistas a identificar qual tem sido a fundamentação predominante na litigância. Métodos: O procedimento adotado foi a análise documental indireta. Procurou-se explorar a análise sob uma abordagem quali-quantitativa. O recorte documental deteve-se na atuação do TRF1 Rondônia, quanto à 26 decisões, referentes a 23 processos judiciais. Resultados: Evidenciou-se que os pedidos de provisão de profissionais de enfermagem foram todos denegados na Seção Judiciária da capital do estado, enquanto foram deferidos nas Subseções do interior. Contudo, para o suprimento de um numerário específico de enfermeiros e/ou técnicos de enfermagem, foi indeferido em todos os juízos do TRF1. Prevaleceu o provimento do pedido de provisão de enfermeiros, fundamentado no princípio da legalidade. Conclusão: Não há um perfil decisório predominante no TRF1, haja vista ser todas as decisões de primeira instância, inexistindo decisões de mérito prolatadas pelo Tribunal em segunda instância. Dessa forma, cada juízo mantém seu próprio tracejado cognitivo jurisdicional, inexistindo uma uniformização para decisões sobre a mesma matéria. Prevaleceu o provimento do pedido de provisão de enfermeiros, fundamentado no princípio da legalidade. (AU)

Objective: To analyze the decisions issued by the Judiciary of Rondônia regarding requests for the provision of nursing professionals to public hospitals, in order to identify the predominant grounds in litigation. Methods: The procedure adopted was indirect documentary analysis. We sought to explore the analysis from a qualitativequantitative approach. The documentary cut focused on the performance of TRF1 Rondônia, regarding 26 decisions related to 23 judicial processes. Results: It was evidenced that requests for the provision of nursing professionals were all denied in the Judicial Section of the state capital, while they were granted in the Subsections of the interior. However, for the supply of a specific number of nurses and/or nursing technicians, it was denied in all the courts of TRF1. The provision of the request for nurses prevailed, based on the principle of legality. Conclusion: There is no predominant decision-making profile in TRF1, since all decisions are at the first instance, with no merit decisions made by the Court at the second instance. Thus, each judge maintains their own jurisdictional cognitive tracing, without there being a uniformity for decisions on the same subject. The provision of the request for nurses prevailed, based on the principle of legality. (AU)

Métodos: El procedimiento adoptado fue el análisis documental indirecto. Se buscó explorar el análisis desde un enfoque cualitativo-cuantitativo. El recorte documental se centró en la actuación del TRF1 Rondônia, en relación con 26 decisiones relativas a 23 procesos judiciales. Resultados: Se evidenció que todas las solicitudes de provisión de profesionales de enfermería fueron denegadas en la Sección Judicial de la capital del estado, mientras que fueron concedidas en las Subsecciones del interior. Sin embargo, para el suministro de un número específico de enfermeros y/o técnicos de enfermería, se denegó en todos los juzgados del TRF1. Prevaleció la provisión de la solicitud de enfermeros, fundamentada en el principio de legalidad. Conclusión: No hay un perfil decisivo predominante en el TRF1, ya que todas las decisiones son de primera instancia, no existiendo decisiones de mérito pronunciadas por el Tribunal en segunda instancia. De esta manera, cada juez mantiene su propio trazado cognitivo jurisdiccional, sin haber una uniformidad para las decisiones sobre la misma materia. Prevaleció la provisión de la solicitud de enfermeros, fundamentada en el principio de legalidad. (AU)

Uso da classificação de robson para avaliação das taxas de cesáreas em hospitais paranaenses vinculados ao sistema único de saúde / Use of the robson classification for the evaluation of cesarean section rates in hospitals in the state of paraná linked to the single health system / Uso de la clasificación de robson para evaluar las tasas de cesrea en hospitales paranaeses vinculados al sistema de salud único

Introdução: Os índices de parto cesariano vêm aumentando mundialmente e ultrapassando, em muitos locais, os índices de parto vaginal. No entanto, tais índices nem sempre refletem a indicação real do procedimento. Objetivo: analisar as taxas de cesáreas de hospitais vinculados à Secretaria Municipal do Estado do Paraná no ano de 2021, exceto universitários, através da Classificação de Robson. Métodos: Trata-se de um estudo descritivo, transversal e de abordagem quantitativa, foram avaliadas 356 instituições de saúde do estado do Paraná, os dados foram coletados no site do Departamento de Informática do Sistema Único de Saúde (DATASUS), através do Sistema de Informações sobre Nascidos Vivos (SINASC) via tabulador oficial do Ministério da Saúde- Tabwim, no ano de 2021. Resultados: Os maiores índices segundo Classificação de Robson, foram de mulheres entre 20 à 34 anos, com companheiro, escolaridade de oito anos ou mais de estudo, multíparas com filhos vivos anteriores a última gestação, sendo estas a termo, com gravidez única e sem anomalias congênitas, além da realização de sete consultas de pré-natal com seu início no primeiro trimestre de gestação. Conclusão: o parto cesariano ultrapassa os índices do parto vaginal. Podemos evidenciar a importância que os profissionais de saúde possuem para revertermos essa realidade através da educação em saúde, e no desenvolvimento de estratégias que minimizem esses números expressivos de cesarianas.

Introduction: The rate of cesarean delivery has been increasing worldwide and in many places surpassing the rate of vaginal delivery. However, such indexes do not always reflect the actual indication of the procedure. Objective: To analyze the rates of cesarean sections of hospitals linked to the Municipal Secretariat of the State of Paraná in the year 2021, except university, through the Robson Classification. Methods: It is a descriptive, cross-sectional and quantitative approach study, 356 health institutions of the state of Paraná were evaluated, the data were collected on the website of the Department of Informatics of the Unified Health System (DATASUS), through the Information System on Live Births (SINASC) via the official tabler of the Ministry of Health- Tabwim, in the year 2021. Results: The highest rates according to the Robson Classification were women between 20 and 34 years of age, with a partner, eight years of schooling or more of study, multiparous with living children prior to the last pregnancy, these being full-term, with single pregnancy and without congenital anomalies, in addition to having seven prenatal appointments with their start in the first trimester of gestation. Conclusion: cesarean delivery exceeds the rates of vaginal delivery. We can highlight the importance that health professionals have to reverse this reality through health education, and in the development of strategies that minimize these expressive numbers of cesareans.

Introducción: las tasas de natalidad cesárea han estado aumentando en todo el mundo y han superado las tasas de natalidad vaginal en muchos lugares. Sin embargo, esos índices no siempre reflejan la indicación real del procedimiento. Objetivo: analizar las tasas de cesárea hospitalaria vinculada a la Secretaría Municipal del Estado de Paraná en 2021, excepto los graduados universitarios, a través de la Clasificación de Robson. Métodos: Se trata de un estudio descriptivo, transversal y cuantitativo; se evaluaron 356 instituciones de salud del estado de Paraná; los datos se recogieron en el sitio web del Departamento de Información del Sistema de Salud Pública (DATASUS), a través del Sistema de Información sobre Aves Vivas (SINASC) a través del tabulador oficial del Ministerio de Salud ­ Tabwim, en 2021. Resultados: Los índices más altos según la Clasificación de Robson fueron las mujeres de 20 a 34 años de edad, con parejas, escolaridad durante ocho años o más de estudio, multiples con hijos vivos antes del último embarazo, con un solo embarazo y sin anomalías congénitas, y también se realizaron siete consultas prenatales con su inicio en el primer trimestre de gestación. Conclusión: el parto cesárea excede las tasas vaginales de nacimiento. Podemos destacar la importancia que tienen los profesionales de la salud para revertir esta realidad a través de la educación sanitaria, y en el desarrollo de estrategias que minimicen este número expresivo de cesáreas.

Abstract Introduction The intervention of occupational therapy with elderly people in end-of-life processes in hospital contexts presents short scientific documentation in Chile. Given the increase in the elderly population, their high prevalence of chronic diseases, and the hospital mortality rates, the need to review the interventions carried out in the end-of-life processes of the elderly are identified. Objective To characterize occupational therapy interventions with elderly people who are in their end-of-life process, from the perception of occupational therapists dedicated to the area, in public hospital contexts in Chile. Method The research is of a qualitative type framed within the constructivist paradigm under the phenomenological approach, using the semi-structured interview as an information collection technique and subsequent content analysis. The study sample is made up of occupational therapists who work in public hospitals in the country. Results Occupational therapists are identified as agents that provide humanizing care and support during interventions in end-of-life processes, and families mainly as a facilitator of the same. In these processes, an integral vision of the person is revealed. Conclusions There is consensus on the occupational therapy approach and interventions identified by the participants, and it is similar to what is described in the international literature. There is a lack of local public policy guidelines that allow a better definition of the professional role in this context.

Transparência, accountability e governance: revisão sistemática da literatura nos hospitais públicos / Transparencia, rendición de cuentas y gobernanza: una revisión de la literatura en el contexto de los hospitales públicos / Transparency, accountability, and governance: a literature review in the context of public hospitals

Resumo Neste estudo busca-se desenvolver uma revisão da literatura baseada na análise bibliométrica sobre o tema da transparência e da accountability no contexto da governance dos hospitais públicos, procurando identificar linhas de investigação, teoria, método de investigação e lacunas existentes por intermédio da análise das publicações científicas datadas até 2020. A investigação seguiu o referencial teórico da transparência e da accountability no setor público com o intuito de compreender o seu enquadramento no contexto da governance dos hospitais. Com recurso ao software Bibliometrix e terminado o processo de consulta dos artigos nas bases de dados Scopus e WoS, foram selecionados 118 artigos para este estudo. Constatou-se que, no período entre 2017-2020, cerca de 85% das publicações são de base qualitativa e há uma tendência crescente no estudo da transparência e da accountability na governança dos hospitais públicos. A transparência surge frequentemente interligada à responsabilização dos agentes (accountability), às políticas de comunicação externa (relatórios públicos) e interna, assim como à sua compreensibilidade. Verificou-se a ainda predominância das publicações de origem norte-americana e chinesa. O estudo identifica também a escassez de investigação baseada em modelos quantitativos que explorem relações de dependência entre as dimensões estudadas, limitando a compreensão da interdependência entre as práticas de transparência e os atributos internos e externos das organizações. O estudo contribui para o conhecimento sobre interações entre transparência, accountability e prestação de contas na governança dos hospitais públicos.

Resumen El objetivo de este estudio es desarrollar una revisión bibliográfica basada en el análisis bibliométrico sobre el tema de la transparencia y la rendición de cuentas en el ámbito de la gobernanza de los hospitales públicos, buscando identificar líneas de investigación, teorías, métodos de investigación y lagunas existentes a través del análisis de las publicaciones científicas fechadas hasta 2020. La investigación siguió el referencial teórico de la transparencia y la rendición de cuentas en el sector público para comprender su marco en el ámbito de la gobernanza de los hospitales. Recurriendo al software Bibliometrix, y tras el proceso de consulta de los artículos en las bases de datos Scopus y WoS, se seleccionaron 118 artículos de interés para este estudio. Se constató que, en el periodo comprendido entre 2017 y 2020, aproximadamente el 85% de las publicaciones son de base cualitativa y existe una tendencia creciente en el estudio de la transparencia y la rendición de cuentas en el ámbito de la gobernanza de los hospitales públicos. La transparencia aparece a menudo interconectada con la responsabilidad de los agentes (rendición de cuentas), las políticas de comunicación externa (informes públicos) e interna, así como su comprensibilidad. También se observó el predominio de publicaciones de origen norteamericano y chino. El estudio también identifica la escasez de investigaciones que utilicen modelos cuantitativos que exploren las relaciones de dependencia entre las dimensiones estudiadas, lo que limita la comprensión de la interdependencia entre las prácticas de transparencia y los atributos internos y externos de las organizaciones. El estudio contribuye al conocimiento de las interacciones entre transparencia, rendición de cuentas y reporte en el ámbito de la gobernanza de los hospitales públicos.

Abstract This study develops a literature review based on bibliometric analysis on the theme of transparency and accountability within the scope of governance of public hospitals, seeking to identify research lines, theories, research methods, and existing gaps through the analysis of scientific publications until 2020. The investigation followed the theoretical lens of transparency and accountability in the public sector to understand its framework within the scope of the governance of hospitals. Using the Bibliometrix software, and after the consultation process of the articles published in the Scopus and WoS databases, a sample with 118 articles was selected. It was found that, in the period between 2017-2020, approximately 85% of the publications were qualitative, and there is a growing trend in the study of transparency and accountability within the scope of governance of public hospitals. Transparency often appears interconnected with the accountability of agents (accountability), external communication policies (public reports), internal communication policies, and their comprehensibility. The predominance of publications of North American and Chinese origin was also noted. The study also identifies the scarcity of research using quantitative models that explore dependency relationships between the dimensions studied, limiting the comprehensibility of the interdependence between transparency practices and organizations' internal and external attributes. The study contributes to the knowledge about the interactions between transparency, accountability, and reporting within the scope of governance of public hospitals.

Organizações Sociais de Saúde na mídia: uma análise de notícias em grandes veículos de imprensa (2008-2016) / The Social Health Organizations in the media: analysis of news in large press outlets (2008-2016) / Las Organizaciones Sociales de Salud en los medios: un análisis de las noticias en los principales medios de comunicación (2008-2016)

Este estudo analisou matérias jornalísticas sobre Organizações Sociais de Saúde (OSS) contratadas para gerir hospitais estaduais no Brasil. Foram levantadas publicações nos meios de comunicação G1, Estadão e Valor Econômico sobre as dez maiores OSS do país. Analisou-se o conteúdo de 124 matérias, sendo a maioria da organização Associação Paulista para o Desenvolvimento da Medicina (SPDM), entre os temas: denúncia de irregularidades, desvio de verbas, metas subestimadas, falta de licitações e precarização do trabalho. Houve também conteúdos sobre flexibilidade, dinamismo gerencial, agilidade nas contratações e economia aos cofres públicos. Os achados apontaram para elementos que visam tanto ao fortalecimento do modelo de gestão reforçado pela Nova Gestão Pública (NGP) quanto à mobilização da sociedade frente a essas instituições privadas.

This study analyzed news stories about Social Health Organizations contracted to manage state hospitals in Brazil. We selected publications from G1, Estadão and Valor Econômico media about the ten largest Brazil-ian Social Health Organizations. We analyzed the content of a total of 124 articles, most of them from the Associação Paulista para o Desenvolvimento da Medicina (SPDM) organization, denouncing irregularities, misuse of funds, underestimated goals, lack of tenders and precarious work. There were articles also about flexibility, managerial dynamism, agility in hiring and savings to public coffers. The findings pointed to an outline aimed both at strengthening the management model reinforced by the New Public Management, and at mobilizing society towards these private institutions.

Se levantaron publicaciones en los medios G1, Estadão y Valor Econômico sobre las diez mayores OSS del país. Se analizó el contenido de 124 artículos, la mayoría de la organización Associação Paulista para o Desenvolvimento da Medicina (SPDM), de denuncia de irregularidades, malversación de fondos, subestimación de metas, falta de licitaciones y precariedad laboral. También tuvo contenidos sobre flexibilidad, dinamismo gerencial, agilidad en la contratación y ahorro para las arcas públicas. Los hallazgos apuntaron elementos dirigidos tanto al fortalecimiento del modelo de gestión reforzado por la Nueva Gestión Pública, como a la movilización de la sociedad hacia estas instituciones privadas.

COVID-19 Mortality in Public Hospitals in a Brazilian State: An Analysis of the Three Waves of the Pandemic.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze COVID-19 deaths in public hospitals in a Brazilian state, stratified by the three waves of the pandemic, and to test their association with socio-clinical variables. METHODS: Observational analytical study, where 5436 deaths by COVID-19 occurred in hospitals of the public network of Espírito Santo, between 1 April 2020, and 31 August 2021, stratified by the three waves of the pandemic, were analyzed. For the bivariate analyses, the Pearson's chi-square, Fisher's Exact or Friedman's tests were performed depending on the Gaussian or non-Gaussian distribution of the data. For the relationship between time from diagnosis to death in each wave, quantile regression was used, and multinomial regression for multiple analyses. RESULTS: The mean time between diagnosis and death was 18.5 days in the first wave, 20.5 days in the second wave, and 21.4 days in the third wave. In the first wave, deaths in public hospitals were associated with the following variables: immunodeficiency, obesity, neoplasia, and origin. In the second wave, deaths were associated with education, O2 saturation < 95%, chronic neurological disease, and origin. In the third wave, deaths were associated with race/color, education, difficulty breathing, nasal or conjunctival congestion, irritability or confusion, adynamia or weakness, chronic cardiovascular disease, neoplasms, and diabetes mellitus. Origin was associated with the outcome in the three waves of the pandemic, in the same way that education was in the second and third waves (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION: The time interval between diagnosis and death can be impacted by several factors, such as: plasticity of the health system, improved clinical management of patients, and the start of vaccination at the end of January 2021, which covered the age group with the higher incidence of deaths. The deaths occurring in public hospitals were associated with socio-clinical characteristics.

Mortalidade por Covid-19 em hospitais públicos e privados de Florianópolis/SC / Covid-19 mortality in public and private hospitals of Florianópolis/SC

Introdução: O acesso ao tratamento hospitalar adequado é importante para amenizar o impacto causado pelas questões socioeconômicas, auxiliando no combate às iniquidades em saúde. Objetivo: Analisar a diferença da atenção hospitalar pública e privada na mortalidade por Covid-19 em Florianópolis/SC. Métodos: Coorte histórica com dados de pacientes confirmados para Covid-19 entre 22 de fevereiro de 2020 e 09 de novembro de 2020. Utilizou-se abordagem de dupla-robustez. Na primeira etapa, parearam-se indivíduos notificados em hospitais públicos e privados por algoritmo genético. A seguir, estimou-se a probabilidade de óbito em hospitais públicos e privados, por meio de regressão logística. Analisou-se, então, a diferença entre as densidades de probabilidade de óbito dos dois tipos hospitalares. Resultados: Analisaram-se 2.497 pessoas, 1.244 de hospitais públicos e 1.253 de privados. A diferença entre a probabilidade condicional de óbito assumindo que todos os pacientes fossem notificados em hospitais públicos ou que todos fossem notificados em hospitais privados foi de -0,0002 (IC 95% -0,0013; 0,0005). Conclusão: A probabilidade de óbito por Covid-19 mostrou-se semelhante entre pacientes de hospitais públicos e privados.

Introduction: Access to adequate hospital treatment is important to alleviate the impact of socioeconomic issues, helping in the fight against health inequities. Objective: To analyze differences between public and private hospital care regarding COVID-19 mortality in Florianópolis/SC. Methods: This is a historical cohort study with data from patients who had a COVID-19 diagnosis confirmed between February 22, 2020 and November 9, 2020. We used a doubly robust approach. In the first stage, we paired individuals reported by public and private hospitals through a genetics algorithm. Subsequently, we estimated the probability of death in public and private hospitals using a logistic regression. We then analyzed the difference between probability densities of death in both hospital types. Results: This study analyzed 2,497 people, 1,244 public hospitals, and 1,253 private institutions. The difference between conditional probabilities of death assuming that all patients were reported by public hospitals or that all of them were reported by private hospitals was -0.0002 (95%CI -0.0013; 0.0005). Conclusion: The probability of death due to COVID-19 was shown to be similar between patients of public or private hospitals.

Nursing work environment and accreditation: Is there a relationship?

BACKGROUND: The association between Magnet recognition and nursing work environment is well established; however, little is known about hospital accreditation and its relationship to the nursing work environment. OBJECTIVE: To describe the Brazilian nurses' perceptions of the work environment and their relationship with hospital accreditation. METHODS: A cross-sectional survey study was carried out in three Brazilian hospitals. Nurses who delivered direct patient care and worked for at least 6 months were invited to participate. Those who were on vacation or leave for any reason during data collection were excluded. The participants were asked to fill out the personal and professional characterization form and the Brazilian version of the Revised Nursing Work Index. RESULTS: The work environment was evaluated as favourable by Brazilian nurses. Linear regression analysis evidenced that hospital accreditation is associated with the nursing work environment, affecting the nurse-physician relationship (OR = 0.266, p < .001), organisational support (OR = 0.256, p < .001), control over the practice setting (OR = 0.229, p < .001) and autonomy (OR = 0.227, p < .001). CONCLUSION: The findings suggest that there is a positive influence of hospital accreditation on nurses' perceptions of the work environment concerning autonomy, nurse-physician relationship, control over the practice setting and organisational support. IMPLICATION FOR NURSING MANAGEMENT: Nurse managers can apply the recommendations of certification programmes in practice settings to improve the nursing work environment.

Optimizing the use of cesarean section in Argentina: design and methodology of a formative research for the development of interventions.

BACKGROUND: While cesarean section is an essential life-saving strategy for women and newborns, its current overuse constitutes a global problem. The aim of this formative research is to collect information from hospitals, health professionals and women regarding the use of cesarean section in Argentina. This article describes the methodology of the study, the characteristics of the hospitals and the profile of the participants. METHODS: This formative research is a mixed-method study that will be conducted in seven provinces of Argentina. The eligibility criteria for the hospitals are (a) use of the Perinatal Information System, (b) cesarean section rate higher than 27% in 2016, (c) ≥ 1000 deliveries per year. Quantitative and qualitative research techniques will be used for data collection and analysis. The main inquiry points are the determining factors for the use of cesarean section, the potential interventions to optimize the use of cesarean section and, in the case of women, their preferred type of delivery. DISCUSSION: It is expected that the findings will provide a situation diagnosis to help a context-sensitive implementation of the interventions recommended by the World Health Organization to optimize cesarean section use. Trial registration IS002316 Cesarean section is an essential medical tool for mothers and their children, but nowadays its overuse is a problem worldwide. Our purpose is to get information from hospitals, health professionals and women about how cesarean section is used in Argentina. In this protocol we describe how we will carry out the study and the characteristics of the hospitals and participants. We will implement this study in seven provinces of Argentina, in hospitals that have more than 1,000 births each year, had a cesarean section rate higher than 27% in 2016 and use the Perinatal Information System. We will gather information using forms, surveys and interviews. We want to identify the factors that decide the use of a cesarean section, the potential interventions that can improve the use of cesarean section and, in the case of women, the type of delivery they prefer. We expect that this study will give us a diagnosis of how cesarean section is used in Argentina, and that this will help to apply the interventions that the World Health Organization recommends to optimize the use of cesarean section in our specific context.

RESUMEN: INTRODUCCIóN: Aun cuando la cesárea es una intervención que puede ser esencial para salvar la vida de una mujer y su hijo, el crecimiento excesivo de su uso  es un problema global. El propósito de esta investigación formativa es recolectar información sobre las instituciones, profesionales de la salud y mujeres acerca del uso de la cesárea en la Argentina. Este artículo describe la metodología del estudio, las características de los hospitales y el perfil de los participantes. METODOLOGíA: Esta investigación formativa usa un diseño mixto aplicado en siete provincias del país. Los criterios de elegibilidad para los hospitales son: (a) uso del Sistema Informático Perinatal, (b) tasa de cesáreas mayor al 27% en 2016, y (c) ≥ 1000 partos por año. Se usarán técnicas cualitativas y cuantitativas para la recolección de datos y el análisis. Los principales temas a indagar son los determinantes del uso de la cesárea, las intervenciones para optimizar su uso y, en el caso de las mujeres, sus preferencias sobre el modo de parto. DISCUSIóN: Se espera que los resultados den lugar a un diagnóstico de situación que permita una implementación de las intervenciones propuesas por la OMS para optimizar el uso de la cesárea más ajustada al contexto.

Características del embarazo y nacimiento en el Noreste de México y correlación con la evaluación neurológica del recién nacido / Pregnancy and delivery characteristics in northeastern Mexico and their correlation with neonatal neurological evaluation

Resumen OBJETIVO: Determinar las características del embarazo y nacimiento en hospitales públicos del estado de Nuevo León y analizar los resultados de la valoración neurológica de los recién nacidos. MATERIALES Y MÉTODOS: Estudio de serie de casos, ambispectivo, multicéntrico, aleatorizado y transversal efectuado del 2017 al 2020 en tres hospitales públicos de Nuevo León, México. La muestra se reclutó de madres en puerperio seleccionadas en forma aleatoria y recién nacidos con la valoración Neo Neuro and Up de Sheridan Perreira. RESULTADOS: De 75,951 madres en puerperio inmediato, asignadas al azar, se estudiaron 4241. El 87.2% eran residentes de Nuevo León y 12.7% de otros estados del Noreste de México. El 39.9% tuvieron control prenatal en los hospitales de nacimiento de sus hijos. El 51.0% nacieron por parto eutócico y 27.4% por cesárea programada. El 9.6% de los recién nacidos fueron pretérmino. Las características pre y perinatales más frecuentes fueron: infección urinaria y prematurez. El 12.02% de los recién nacidos tuvieron evaluación neurológica neonatal anormal. Los factores de riesgo para evaluación neurológica anormal al nacimiento fueron: peso al nacer menor de 2500 g, bajo peso para la edad gestacional, cesárea urgente y perímetro cefálico menor de 30 cm. CONCLUSIONES: Las características de las embarazadas del Noreste de México han sido poco estudiadas, casi la tercera parte ellas son adolescentes con un nivel importante de pobreza. Existe una relación significativa entre algunas características del parto relacionadas con una evaluación neurológica anormal del recién nacido.

Abstract OBJECTIVE: To determine the characteristics of pregnancy and birth in public hospitals in northeastern Mexico. Analyze the results of the neurological evaluation of newborns MATERIALS AND METHODS: Case series, ambispective, multicenter, randomized, cross-sectional study conducted from 2017 to 2020 in three public hospitals in Nuevo León, Mexico. The sample was recruited from randomly selected puerperium mothers and newborns with Sheridan Perreira's Neo Neuro and Up assessment. RESULTS: Of 75,951 mothers in immediate puerperium, randomly assigned, 4,241 were studied. Eighty-seven percent were residents of Nuevo León and 12.7% were from other states in northeastern Mexico. Thirty-nine.9% had prenatal care in the hospitals where their children were born. Fifty-one percent were born by euthyroid delivery and 27.4% by programmed cesarean section. Of the newborns, 9.6% were preterm. The most frequent pre and perinatal characteristics were urinary tract infection and prematurity. Abnormal neonatal neurological evaluation was observed in 12.02% of the newborns. The risk factors for abnormal neurological evaluation at birth were birth weight less than 2500 g, low weight for gestational age, emergency cesarean section and head circumference less than 30 cm. CONCLUSSIONS: The characteristics of pregnant mothers in northeastern Mexico have been little studied, almost a third of these mothers are adolescents with a significant level of poverty. There is a significant relationship between some characteristics of delivery related to an abnormal neurological evaluation of the newborn.

Coping strategies used by hospital emergency nurses / Estrategias de coping que utilizan las enfermeras de urgencias hospitalarias / Estratégias de coping utilizadas por enfermeiras de emergência hospitalar

ABSTRACT Objective: to analyze the Coping Strategies used by hospital emergency nurses. Method: qualitative study with a descriptive exploratory approach, conducted with 15 nurses from an emergency hospital department in the public healthcare network of a municipality in the state of Bahia, Brazil. The semi-structured in-depth interview was used. Data were collected from April to June 2017. The findings are based on the collective subject discourse method, supported by the theoretical Coping framework. Results: the presence of stress generating situations is significant in the work of hospital emergency nurses, causing social, labor and psychosomatic repercussions to emerge emotional or psychiatric disorders that affect the body's functionality, including physical repercussions. The development of Coping Strategies arises in the face of the need to cope with stressors. They involve the use of personal, social and spiritual resources, and reveal themselves in positive and/or negative responses. The discourse revealed that, when focused on the problem (management of the stressor), they seek to strengthen social support, plan their daily activities and establish a dialogic and mutual help relationship with the team; when centered on emotion (regulation of emotions or distress), they exercise the search and maintenance of emotional control, practice self-control, move away from the stressor element and invest in physical activity and leisure practices. Conclusion: the nurse employs different Coping Strategies which are essential and indispensable to avoid increasing stress levels and triggering negative repercussions. The strategies undertaken are now centered on the problem, or emotion.

RESUMEN Objetivo: analizar las Estrategias de Coping que utilizan las enfermeras de urgencias hospitalarias. Método: estudio descriptivo, exploratorio y cualitativo, realizado con 15 enfermeras de un servicio de emergencia de un hospital público de un municipio del estado de Bahía, Brasil. Se utilizó la entrevista en profundidad semiestructurada. La recolección de datos se llevó a cabo de abril a junio del año 2017. Los hallazgos están anclados en el método del Discurso Colectivo del Sujeto, sustentado en el marco teórico de Coping. Resultados: destaca la presencia de situaciones generadoras de estrés en el trabajo del enfermero de urgencias hospitalarias, dando lugar a repercusiones sociales, laborales y psicosomáticas, Trastornos emocionales o psiquiátricos que afectan la funcionalidad del cuerpo, englobando las repercusiones físicas. El desarrollo de Estrategias de Coping surge ante la necesidad de afrontar los factores estresantes. Implican el uso de recursos personales, sociales y espirituales, y se revelan en respuestas positivas y/o negativas. El discurso reveló que, al enfocarse en el problema (manejo del estresor), buscan fortalecer el apoyo social, planificar sus actividades diarias y establecer una relación dialógica y de ayuda mutua con el equipo; cuando se centran en la emoción (regulación de emociones o angustia), ejercen la búsqueda y mantenimiento del control emocional, practican el autocontrol, se alejan del elemento estresante e invierten en prácticas de actividad física y ocio. Conclusión: la enfermera emplea diferentes Estrategias de Coping, esenciales e indispensables para evitar elevar los niveles de estrés y desencadenar repercusiones negativas. Las estrategias emprendidas evidenciadas se centran a veces en el problema, a veces en la emoción.

Conclusão: a enfermeira emprega diferentes Estratégias de Coping, sendo essenciais e indispensáveis para evitar a elevação dos níveis de estresse e o desencadeamento de repercussões negativas. As estratégias empreendidas evidenciadas ora estão centradas no problema, ora na emoção.

Efluentes hospitalarios como reservorio de enterobacterias productoras de betalactamasas y carbapenemasas / Hospital effluents as a reservoir of beta-lactamase- and carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae

Con el objetivo de determinar la presencia de enterobacterias productoras de betalactamasas (bla) en muestras de efluentes hospitalarios, se realizó un estudio en dos hospitales de nivel II y III de Lima, Perú. Se identificó y caracterizó el perfil de resistencia de las bacterias aisladas mediante el sistema MicroScan para 18 antimicrobianos, y mediante PCR convencional se determinó la presencia de los genes de resistencia a betalactamasas de espectro de extendido (BLEE) (bla CTX-M, bla SHV, bla TEM, bla PER) y carbapenemasas (bla KPC , bla NDM , bla VIM , bla IMP). Se identificaron 32 aislados (20 enterobacterias y 12 bacterias gramnegativas). Todas las bacterias aisladas presentaron multirresistencia. Se halló la presencia de genes BLEE (bla TEM) y carbapenemasas (bla KPC y bla IMP) en los hospitales evaluados. La liberación de estos microorganismos a la vía pública y la falta de tratamiento de los efluentes hospitalarios podría ser un importante problema de salud pública.

The aim of this study was to determine the presence of beta-lactamase- (bla) producing Enterobacteriaceae in hospital effluent samples from two level II and III hospitals in Lima, Peru. The resistance profile of the isolated bacteria was identified and characterized using the MicroScan system for 18 antimicrobials, and the presence of extended spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBL) (blaCTX-M ,bla SHV bla TEM ,bla PER) and carbapenemases (bla KPC ,bla NDM ,bla VIM ,bla IMP) resistance genes was determined by conventional PCR. Thirty-two isolates were identified (20 Enterobacteriaceae and 12 gram-negative bacteria). All the isolated bacteria showed multidrug resistance. ESBL (bla TEM) and carbapenemase (blaKPC, blaIMP) genes were found in samples from the hospitals that we evaluated. The release of these microorganisms to public areas and the lack of treatment of the hospital effluents could be an important public health problem.

Experiencias de fonoaudiólogos/as en hospitales y Centros Comunitarios de Rehabilitación: ¿se modifica la práctica de atención? / Experiences of speech therapist in hospitals and Community Rehabilitation Centers: is the care practice changed?

El presente trabajo busca caracterizar las prácticas fonoaudiológicas en dos contextos de atención de la salud pública chilena (hospitalario y atención primaria -centros comunitarios de rehabilitación). Es un estudio cualitativo con enfoque micro-sociológico, que implicó la realización de entrevistas en profundidad y observaciones no participantes a dos fonoaudiólogos/as insertos en Centros Comunitarios de Rehabilitación (CCR) y dos fonoaudiólogos/as insertos en hospitales públicos. Los datos obtenidos se analizaron con herramientas de la Teoría Fundamentada y se propuso una conceptualización basada en semejanzas y diferencias de las prácticas fonoaudiológicas utilizando el software computacional ATLAS-ti. Del análisis surgen las siguientes categorías: rol del profesional, sujeto de atención, relación terapeuta-usuario/a, espacio físico y organización de la sesión, los/las participantes. Además, el principal hallazgo refiere a que todos/as los/las profesionales mencionan la relevancia de incorporar matices psicosociales en el abordaje que realizan. Sin embargo, en la práctica de todos/as los/las fonoaudiólogos/as durante la observación participante no se evidencia dicha incorporación. Los resultados permiten concluir que la conceptualización del quehacer fonoaudiológico se construye mayormente a partir del contexto laboral. Asimismo, los modelos de atención a la base (biomédico-biopsicosocial) se encuentran actualmente en un proceso de hibridación, siendo la práctica de los/las fonoaudiólogos/as situada y también influida por el contexto laboral.

The present work seeks to characterize speech therapy practices in two Chilean public health care contexts (hospital and primary care -community rehabilitation centers). It is a qualitative study with a micro-sociological approach, which involved conducting in-depth interviews and non-participant observations with two speech therapists inserted in Community Rehabilitation Centers (CCR) and two speech therapists enrolled in public hospitals. The data obtained were analyzed with Grounded Theory tools and a conceptualization based on similarities and differences of speech therapy practices was proposed using ATLAS-ti computational software. The following categories emerge from the analysis: role of the professional, subject of care, therapist-user relationship, physical space and organization of the session, the participants. In addition, the main finding refers to the fact that all the professionals mention the relevance of incorporating psychosocial nuances in the approach they carry out. However, in the practice of all speech therapists during participant observation, such incorporation is not evidenced. The results allow us to conclude that the conceptualization of speech therapy is built mostly from the work context. Likewise, the models of care at the base (biomedical-biopsychosocial) are currently in a process of hybridization, the practice of speech therapists being situated and also influenced by the work context.

Influencia de la calidad de vida laboral sobre el desempeño de trabajadores de hospitales públicos de México: una visión desde la gestión directiva / Influence of the labor quality of life on the employee performance of public hospitals from Mexico: a vision based on the team management

Resumen: Objetivo: Evaluar la relación entre calidad de vida laboral (CVL) y el desempeño organizacional (DO) de trabajadores de siete hospitales públicos, a partir del análisis de la influencia de la gestión directiva (GD) como mediadora de esta relación. Material y métodos: Se realizó un estudio transversal en 866 profesionales y directivos de hospitales públicos de Tlaxcala y de la Ciudad de México. La CVL fue medida con un instrumento validado, el DO con 34 indicadores y la GD con un instrumento diseñado para este estudio. Resultados: Los puntajes de gestión directiva, CVL, DO y GD fueron significativamente menores en los trabajadores de Tlaxcala. Los participantes que percibieron adecuada GD incrementaron 2.7 veces más la probabilidad de percibir elevada CVL y los participantes categorizados en elevada CVL presentaron 69% mayor probabilidad de tener adecuado DO. Conclusiones: La adecuada GD se asoció con una mejor CVL, lo que mostró ser una variable mediadora de la relación positiva entre CVL y DO.

Abstract: Objective: To assess the relationship between labor quality of life (LQL) and organizational workers performance (OWP) from seven public hospitals, analyzing the influence of the personnel management (PM) as mediator of this relationship. Materials and methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted in 866 professionals and managers of public hospitals from Tlaxcala and Mexico City. The LQL was assessed with a validated questionnaire, OWP with 34 indicators, and PM with an instrument designed for this study. Results: Mean scores of LQL, were significantly lower among workers from Tlaxcala. Participants who perceived an adequate PM, they increased at 2.7 times their likelihood of having highest LQL, and participants categorized in the high LQL presented 69% higher likelihood of having an adequate OWP. Conclusions: The appropriate PM was associated with greater LQL, showing to be a mediator variable between the positive relationship of CVL and the OWP.

Percepción de los gerentes y directivos de las IPS públicas del Área Metropolitana del Valle de Aburrá sobre los convenios docencia - servicio en salud / Perception that managers and executives from the public IPS in the Metropolitan Area of Aburrá Valley have of health service - teaching agreements / Percepção dos gerentes e diretivos das IPS públicas da Área Metropolitana do Valle de Aburrá sobre os convênios docência - serviço em saúde

Objetivo: conocer la percepción de gerentes y profesionales con cargos administrativos de hospitales públicos o empresas sociales del Estado de segundo y tercer nivel de complejidad del Área Metropolitana del Valle de Aburrá, en los que hay convenios docencia - servicio, pero que no se encuentran categorizados como hospitales universitarios, acerca del proceso de rotación de estudiantes de medicina, con el fin de indagar sobre el compromiso que las instituciones tienen con estos procesos formativos, qué tan informados están con respecto a la metodología de los mismos y cuáles son los beneficios o limitantes que de ellos se desprenden. Metodología: se realizó una investigación cualitativa con enfoque hermenéutico. Se entrevistaron 14 gerentes y profesionales con cargos administrativos de 6 hospitales públicos del Área Metropolitana del Valle de Aburrá. Resultados: las prácticas de los estudiantes de medicina de primeros semestres se enmarcan en asuntos básicos porque al estar iniciando su formación les es permitida poca práctica, tienen nula relación o intervención directa con los pacientes y les es denegado el acceso a la historia clínica. Conclusiones: los estudiantes de medicina de primeros semestres desarrollan rotaciones básicas y requieren acompañamiento y supervisión por parte de los docentes. Las ventajas que obtienen las IPS a razón del desarrollo de las prácticas son menores en comparación con las limitaciones que este proceso suscita.

Objective: To find out the perception of the personnel with administrative responsibilities from second and third complexity-level public hospitals or State social enterprises in the Aburrá Valley (which have teaching agreements, but that are not considered teaching hospitals), about medicine students' rotation. The aim was to ascertain the institutional commitment to the formative processes, their knowledge of their methodology, as well as benefits or limitations that result from such processes. Methodology: A qualitative hermeneutical study in which 14 managers and professionals with administrative charges from six public hospitals of the Metropolitan Area of the Aburrá Valley were interviewed. Results: the first-semester medical students' practices are framed in basic matters because when they are starting their training, they are allowed little practice, have little or no direct relationship or intervention with patients and are denied access to their clinical history. Conclusions: first-semester Medicine students are framed in basic rotations. They require permanent accompaniment and supervision from teachers. The advantages that IPS obtain due to the development of students' practices are few compared to the limitations that this process causes.

Objetivo: conhecer a percepção de gerentes e profissionais com cargos administrativos de hospitais públicos ou empresas sociais do Estado de segundo e terceiro nível de complexidade da Área Metropolitana do Valle de Aburrá, nos que há convênios docência - serviço, mas que não se encontram categorizados como hospitais universitários, sobre o processo de rodízio de estudantes de medicina, com o fim de indagar sobre o compromisso que as instituições têm com estes processos formativos, que tão informados estão com respeito à metodologia dos mesmos e quais são os benefícios ou limitantes que deles se desprendem. Metodologia: se realizou uma investigação qualitativa com enfoque hermenêutico. Se entrevistaram 14 gerentes e profissionais com cargos administrativos de 6 hospitais públicos da Área Metropolitana do Valle de Aburrá. Resultados: os estágios dos estudantes de medicina de primeiros semestres se quadram em assuntos básicos porque ao estar iniciando sua formação lhes é permitida pouca prática, têm nula relação ou intervenção direta com os pacientes e lhes é denegado o acesso à história clínica. Conclusões: os estudantes de medicina de primeiros semestres desenvolvem rotações básicas e requerem acompanhamento e supervisão por parte dos docentes. As vantagens que obtém as IPS a razão do desenvolvimento dos estágios é menor em comparação com as limitações que este processo suscita.
