Objective: to map existing evidence on spiritual care for patients hospitalized with COVID-19. Methods: scoping review developed in accordance with methodological processes developed by the Joanna Briggs Institute, carried out through a search in the data bases SCOPUS, Science Direct, MEDLINE, Web of Science, CINAHL, and Google Scholar®, in addition to a reverse search in the works selected. The review included studies with evidence on the topic at hand, which had been published in any language, in any time frame. Results: 19 studies were analyzed, and 8 different spiritual care interventions were mapped, which were: listening to the spiritual pain of the patient; grief support; on-line video tools with content on faith and resilience; on-line calls with relatives; availability of religious representatives; spiritual triage; training professionals to provide spiritual care; and music therapy as an instrument of spirituality. Conclusion: this review allowed mapping the evidence about spiritual care in patients hospitalized with a diagnosis of COVID-19, addressing strategies to bring spirituality into health care. Contributions to practice:this study contributes for the advancement of the practice of nursing regarding spirituality and patients with COVID-19, providing subsidies to use spirituality as a tool to support care and facilitate dealing with difficult situations.
Objetivo: Identificar, a partir da literatura, a aplicabilidade da National Early Warning Score (NEWS) na detecção precoce de deterioração clínica de pacientes nos diferentes setores assitenciais. Métodos: Trata-se de uma revisão integrativa de literatura, realizada a partir de sete fonte de dados, a saber: Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde (BVS), Scientific Electronic Library Online (SciELO), National Library of Medicine and National Institutes of Health (PubMed), Cochrane Library, The Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature (CINAHL), Scopus e Web of Science. Os critérios de inclusão foram as publicações que abordassem o objeto de estudos nos últimos sete anos (a partir de 2015) a fim de coletar o que há de mais recente sobre o escore e levando em consideração sua criação em 2012, sendo elas disponíveis de forma gratuita, integral e que abordassem a temática de estudo. A amostra final foi composta por 41 estudos. Resultados: Observou-se predomínio dos estudos de coorte, seguidos de estudos observacionais. E os ambientes mais aplicáveis da NEWS, apresenta predominância do ambiente hospitalar de média e alta complexidade, com destaque para as enfermarias (51,35%), seguidas das Unidades de terapia intensiva (10,81%) e ambiente pré-hospitalar (10,81%). Com relação aos profissionais que mais aplicam este escore, profissionais enfermeiros e médicos são os mais prevalentes.Conclusão: Fez-se importante identificar que o NEWS pode ser aplicável em diversos ambientes, pois demonstra efetividade ao identificar deterioração clínica precoce.
Objectives: This study aimed to map evidence of eye care interventions in managing critical or surgical patients submitted to prone positions. Materials and method: This scoping review was prepared according to the Joanna Briggs Institute’s methodology, following the PRISMA-ScR criteria. A search was conducted from July to August 2020 in the SCOPUS, Web of Science, Science Direct, PubMed Central, CINAHL, and COCHRANE databases. The following research question was delimited: “What are the strategies and interventions used for eye care in the management of critical patients or surgical patients submitted to the prone position?” The sample consisted of 24 studies after applying the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Results: Eye care interventions in managing critical/surgical patients submitted to the prone position were eye examination, use of lubricants/specific ophthalmic solution, reverse Trendelenburg positioning, and protection with adhesive tape. Conclusions: This review allowed the understanding of eye care for critical/surgical patients in a prone position. Among the care presented, a large part is related to nursing since it is closer to patient care. The findings emphasize the need to implement patient safety policies with eye care as a priority.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
