Caracterização da sedação e analgesia em unidade de terapia intensiva: estudo observacional / Characterization of the sedation and analgesia in intensive care unit: an observational study / Caracterización de la sedación y analgesia en unidad de terapia intensiva: estudio observacional

OBJETIVO: avaliar o processo de sedação e analgesia em pacientes sob ventilação mecânica invasiva (VMI). MÉTODO: estudo transversal, observacional, realizado de setembro de 2014 a fevereiro de 2015 na UTI de uma instituição de ensino de Goiânia/GO. A amostra foi constituída de 30 pacientes maiores de 18 anos, intubados e sedados há mais de 24 horas (protocolo no. 763.827/2014). RESULTADOS: foram utilizadas analgesia e sedação contínua e intermitente, sendo o fentanil e o dormonid as drogas mais usadas. DISCUSSÃO: o tratamento padrão entre pacientes críticos e submetidos à VMI foi a sedação contínua, administrada devido à ansiedade, para facilitar o cuidado da equipe de enfermagem. A principal indicação para sedação foi a manutenção de VMI. CONCLUSÃO: falta padronização das condutas no manejo da sedação. Recomenda-se a elaboração de protocolos com atuação da equipe multiprofissional.

AIM: to evaluate the process of sedation and analgesia in patients undergoing invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV). METHOD: cross-sectional, observational study conducted from September 2014 to February 2015 in the ICU of a teaching institution in Goiânia/GO. The sample consisted of 30 patients over 18 years old, intubated and sedated for more than 24 hours (protocol no. 763.827/2014). RESULTS: continuous and intermittent sedation, and analgesia were used, with fentanyl and midazolam hydrochloride commonly used drugs. DISCUSSION: the standard treatment for critically ill patients and submitted to IMV was continuous sedation administered due to anxiety in order to facilitate the nursing staff care. The main indication for sedation was the maintenance of IMV. CONCLUSION: lack standardization of approaches in the management of sedation. It is recommended to develop protocols with multidisciplinary effort.

Nursing care management of clients in intensive care: content analysis

Aims: To identify the management process of the nurse in directly caring for the hospitalized client in an intensive care unit; to characterize how the work process of the intensive care nurse guides the caring provided to the client and; to discuss the management process of direct care of the work performed by the intensive care nurse. Method: This is a descriptive study based on a qualitative approach, undertaken with 16 nurses. To collect the information, we used a semi-structured interview, non-participative observation and a journal. The results were later categorized and submitted to content analysis based on Bardin's principles. Results: The nurse has two guiding axes to his actions: the mind map and the real map. The designs done on the mind map start from a single point, with the information radiating from this central point. However, when implementing management processes that were planned mentally, nurses generate a real map based on which they know how to perform. Conclusion: In caring management, the nurse sees himself connected with the client, even though the professional does not get involved with direct care tasks...
