Evidencias bibliográficas sobre riesgos laborales en los pescadores artesanales: revisión integrativa de la literatura

Objetivo: Identificar en la producción científica los tipos de riesgos para enfermidades y agravos para acidentes em trabajadores de la pesca artesanal. Metodología: Revisión integrativa, realizada entre enero y marzo de 2018, por medio de la combinación de los descriptores "Occupational Health" y "Fisheries", en las bases de datos, Medline, LILACS, Scopus, SciELO e internet. Se encontraron 123 artículos. Después de la lectura y evaluación de los mismos, se obtuvo un resultado final para el análisis de 16 artículos. Resultados principales: La mayoría de los estudios se indexaron en la base de datos Medline (56,3%), en el idioma inglés (43,8), con un nivel de evidencia VI (100%). Se constató que los trabajadores de la pesca artesanal están expuestos a riesgos ergonómicos, químicos, físicos y de accidentes. Conclusión: Se constató carencia de publicaciones en el área de la pesca artesanal, inexistencia de publicaciones científicas realizadas por la enfermería y brechas en el conocimiento.

Gestión de Residuos en Unidades Hospitalarias: Una Revisión Integradora

Objetivo principal: identificar las producciones científicas sobre manejo de residuos procedentes de los servicios de salud (RSS) por el equipo de salud en unidades hospitalarias, y analizarlas a la luz de las buenas prácticas. Metodología: revisión integrativa con búsqueda en las bases LILACS, WEB OF SCIENCE, BDENF, MEDLINE / PUBMED. Criterios de inclusión: estudios realizados en unidades hospitalarias y que aborden la gestión en ese contexto. Resultados principales: se seleccionaron 24 publicaciones para representar la muestra de la encuesta. Gran parte de los profesionales no realizan la práctica de segregación y manejo correctamente. La falta de conocimiento de los profesionales es un factor agravante. Conclusión principal: es de extrema importancia la capacitación de los profesionales acerca del manejo adecuado y mayor inversión del gobierno para mejoras en la implantación de regulaciones y fiscalización para la gestión de RSS.

Eficacia del tratamiento para las personas agitadas en situaciones de emergencia en comparación con los servicios comunitarios: revisión sistemática

Objetivo: Conocer la eficacia del tratamiento de personas con conducta hetero agresiva en los servicios de urgencias en comparación con los servicios de salud comunitarios. Método: Revisión sistemática de estudios en bases de datos: LILACS, Psychinfo, Scopus, Web de Ciencia, PUBMED y literatura gris en Google Scholar y en la lista de referencias. La búsqueda se realizó en junio de 2016. Dos mil ciento sesenta estudios fueron encontrados y seis de estos estudios fueron seleccionados para su análisis después de la aplicación de los criterios de exclusión. Resultados: El acercamiento a individuos con comportamiento agitado, agresivo o violento ocurre con mayor frecuencia en servicios de emergencia general y psiquiátrica con intervención médica. Los medicamentos utilizados para controlar la agitación y la sedación fueron benzodiazepina (midazolam, lorazepam), antihistamínico (prometazina), antipsicóticos típicos (haloperidol y droperidol) y antipsicóticos atípicos (olanzapina, ziprasidona, risperidona y quetiapina). Conclusión: Todos los fármacos evaluados promueven la sedación, pero esta revisión muestra ventajas en el uso de la combinación de haloperidol más prometazina.

Sala azul: espacio de aprendizaje vivencial

O objetivo foi analisar as contribuições do processo de aprendizagem vivencial para o desenvolvimento do cuidado sensível no estudante de enfermagem. Pesquisa descritiva, qualitativa, desenvolvida a partir dos registros do formulário de avaliação preenchido por estudantes do terceiro, oitavo e novo período. Foram obtidas amostras não intencionais, dos anos de 2013, 2014 e 2015, totalizando 298 participantes. O campo de estudo foi a Sala Azul, situado na Faculdade de Enfermagem da Universidade Estadual do Rio de Janeiro. Buscou-se respeitar os procedimentos ético-legais que envolvem pesquisas com seres humanos. Emergiram três categorias: Espaço de reflexão para o cuidado de si e do outro; Espaço de aprendizagem da empatia multidimensional e Espaço que promove redução do estresse através do relaxamento. Os resultados sugerem que o processo de aprendizagem vivencial possibilita o desenvolvimento do autoconhecimento, o cuidado de si e do outro, as habilidades empáticas e estratégias de gerenciamento do estresse.

Shared decision aids in pregnancy care: A scoping review

Decision aids (DAs), also known as client-centred decision tools (Vlemmix et al., 2013; Joseph-Williams et al., 2017; Stacey et al., 2017), clinical decision-making tools (Trevana et al., 2014), patient decision aids (Sepucha et al., 2018), shared decision-making tools (Elwyn et al., 2010), and decision support technologies (Elwyn et al., 2009), are interventions that support health consumers by making their decisions explicit, providing information about options and associated benefits/harms, and helping to clarify congruence between decisions and personal values (Stacey et al., 2017).

Neonatal outcomes and its association among gestational diabetes mellitus with and without depression, anxiety and stress symptoms in Malaysia: A cross-sectional study

Prevalence of depression, anxiety and stress symptoms in gestational diabetes mellitus ranges from 10.2% to 39.9% based on previous studies in Malaysia. Presence of depression, anxiety or stress in pregnancy may increase the risk of neonatal morbidity and mortality. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of neonatal outcomes and its association among mothers with gestational diabetes mellitus with and without the presence of depression, anxiety and stress symptoms in Malaysia.

Health professionals’ views of newborn pulse oximetry screening in a midwifery-led maternity setting. “It's a good thing to do, but fund it!”

Congenital heart defects in infants are the commonest congenital abnormality but even critical lesions can be difficult to identify clinically in the first days after birth during the period of physiological transition and while the ductus arteriosus remains patent (Wren et al., 2008). Accordingly, clinical assessment of newborns with congenital heart disease (CHD) within the first 24 h often yields normal findings (Abu-Harb et al., 1994; Saxena et al., 2015). Failure to make an early diagnosis of critical CHD leads to clinical compromise prior to infants receiving major surgery and is associated with increased infant mortality (Eckersley et al., 2016; Franklin et al., 2002).

The association between breastfeeding and attachment: A systematic review

Breastfeeding has multiple positive outcomes on child health, including benefits for the immune system, protection against sudden infant death, and prevention of early infections, diseases and obesity (Dieterich et al., 2013; Duijts et al., 2009; Hoddinott et al., 2008; Xanthou, 1998). The World Health Organization therefore recommends exclusive breastfeeding for the first six months of life (World Health Organization, 2011). While the majority of research has focused on the physiological benefits of breastfeeding, potential psychological benefits have been studied less often (Else-Quest et al., 2003; Schmied et al., 2001).

Conceptualising women's perinatal well-being: A systematic review of theoretical discussions

Over the last two decades there has been an increasing interest in well-being as a focus of policy, practice and research. There is general agreement that well-being takes a more holistic approach and focuses not simply on the absence of illness. In its constitution, the World Health Organisation defines health as ‘a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity’. However, the concept of well-being still remains poorly defined and frequently appears to be used at a superficial level as ‘health and well-being’ to cover a wide range of concepts.

Dimensions in women's experience of the perinatal period

A positive experience of the perinatal period is significant for women in midwifery care. The literature on women's experiences of the care in this period is extensive. However, a clear overview of the dimensions important for women's experiences is lacking. Consequently, care providers and researchers may ignore aspects significant to women's experience. In this short communication, we present a framework identifying the dimensions relevant for women's experiences of the perinatal period.

Breastfeeding support in low and middle-income countries: Secondary analysis of national survey data

Early initiation of breastfeeding and exclusive breastfeeding can reduce infant mortality. Breastfeeding support interventions such as counselling may improve adherence to recommended practices. However, it is not known if these interventions work at the population level.

Exploring the validity of allostatic load in pregnant women

The theory of allostatic load has gained momentum in perinatal research to understand the biological pathways of the impact of maternal chronic stress on adverse perinatal outcomes. However, due to physiological changes of pregnancy, including large variations across gestation, the extent to which allostatic load measured in pregnancy is valid has not been queried in depth.

Evaluation of women's worries in different strategies for the prevention of early onset group B streptococcal disease in neonates

: Early onset group B streptococcal (EOGBS) disease is an important cause of neonatal morbidity and mortality. EOGBS preventive strategies aim to reduce the risk of neonatal complications. Two new strategies to prevent EOGBS were implemented in two regions in the Netherlands: a risk-based and a combination strategy and were compared to the Dutch strategy in a third region. Little is known how women feel about preventive EOGBS strategies, the consequences for management during labour, side effects such as harm caused by over prescribing of antibiotics or anxiety caused by screening.
