Purpose:To compare the effects of the antidepressant drugs duloxetine and fluoxetine on depressive behaviors in rodents. Methods: Eighteen male Wistar rats were given systemic injections of duloxetine, fluoxetine, or saline prior to a Forced Swimming Test (FST). Immobility and number of stops were measured. Results: Rats given injections of fluoxetine displayed significantly less immobility (p = 0.02) and fewer stops than the control group (p = 0.003). Duloxetine significanlty reduced the number of stops (p = 0.003), but did not effect immobility (p = 0.48). Conclusion: Duloxetine and fluoxetine reduced depressive behaviors in the Forced FST. However, our findings suggest that fluoxetine is more effective than duloxetine. Key words: Physiological Effects of Drugs. Fluoxetine. Depression. Animal Experimentation. RESUMO Objetivo:Comparar o efeito antidepressivo da droga cloridrato de duloxetina com a fluoxetina. Métodos: O teste do nado forçado, teste comportamental que avalia a atividade antidepressiva em ratos, foi utilizado em 18 ratos Wistar, machos adultos, divididos em três grupos iguais: duloxetina, fluoxetina e controle. Resultados: Os dados do teste do nado forçado foram analisados pelo teste One-way ANOVA, Mann Whitney e Kruskall-Wallis.Houve diferença significativa (p = 0,003) entre o número de paradas dos grupos duloxetina e fluoxetina e o grupo controle. Conclusão: A duloxetina e a fluoxetina tiveram frequência de paradas similares. A fluoxetina mostrou ser mais efetiva que a duloxetina no teste do nado forçado em ratos.

A passagem de plantão deve conter todas as informações indispensáveis para continuidade da assistência. Falhas nesse processo podem prejudicar a segurança do paciente, levando a um tratamento inadequado e com potencial perigo. O objetivo deste estudo foi caracterizar a passagem de plantão entre o Centro Cirúrgico e a Unidade de Terapia Intensiva. Estudo descritivo e transversal, realizado na Unidade de Terapia Intensiva adulto de um hospital escola no município de Goiânia – Goiás, no período de maio a agosto de 2014. Os dados foram coletados por meio de um checklist dividido em quatro categorias contendo informações referentes à identificação, procedimento realizado, condições clínicas e cuidados pós-operatórios. A maioria das informações do checklist não foi repassada para a equipe da Unidade de Terapia Intensiva. Espera-se que os dados apresentados contribuam para criação de estratégias seguras e fortaleçam o comprometimento dos profissionais com a qualidade das informações transmitidas durante a passagem de plantão.

The handout comprehension assessed by individuals with appropriate FHL indicated that it can be a printed material suitable for use, aiming to improve care process and knowledge of individuals with PM.

Objetivo: Avaliar o conhecimento acerca dos cuidados bucais realizados por enfermeiros a pacientes ventilados mecanicamente. Método: Estudo transversal, realizado em um hospital escola de Goiânia/Goiás. A coleta de dados deu-se por meio de questionário estruturado. Resultados: Os enfermeiros conhecem as medidas recomendadas sobre higiene bucal. Os fatores dificultadores encontrados foram a falta de pessoal (21,7%), falta de tempo (16,7%) e trabalhos burocráticos (15%). Contudo ainda existem lacunas no que se refere a produtos e materiais utilizados na higiene bucal. Conclusão: As Lacunas e os fatores dificultadores sinalizados nesse estudo merecem reflexão, como forma de avaliar a qualidade do cuidado oferecido.Descritores: Biofilme; Higiene Bucal; Cuidados de enfermagem.ORAL CARE IN MECHANICALLY VENTILATED PATIENTS: KNOWLEDGE OF NURSES FROM A SCHOOL HOSPITALObjective: To evaluate the knowledge about oral care performed by nurses in mechanically ventilated patients. Methods: a cross-sectional study, conducted in a teaching hospital of Goiania/Goias. The data collection was performed by means of a structured questionnaire. Results: The nurses know the measures recommended on oral hygiene. The complicating factors found were the lack of personnel (21.7%), lack of time (16.7%) and work on tape (15%). However there are still gaps in relation to products and materials used in oral hygiene. Conclusion: The gaps and the factors complicating factors indicated in this study deserve consideration, as a means of evaluating the quality of care offered.Keywords: Biofilm; Oral hygiene; Nursing care.CUIDADO ORAL EN PACIENTES CON VENTILACIÓN MECÁNICA: EL CONOCIMIENTO DE LAS ENFERMERAS DEL HOSPITAL ESCUELAObjetivo: Evaluar el conocimiento sobre el cuidado bucal realizadas por enfermeras en pacientes ventilados mecánicamente.

Introduction: The National Curricular Guidelines (NCG) for medical school bring the teaching of Humanities, among them Literature, as a way to overcome the biomedical model. Literature can strengthen compassion directed to the ‘other’. It starts with a curriculum organized by active teaching-learning methodologies. Objective: This study aims to understand the experiences of students from a Medical School in the interior of São Paulo who had contact with literary texts in the beginning of medical school, creating a representative model based on the experience. Method: This is a qualitative research guided by the Grounded Theory. The data collection was carried out through semi-structured interviews with undergraduate students who were randomly chosen from all years of the Medical School. The only inclusion criteria was the participation in groups coordinated by a teacher who had used literature as a teaching strategy. Twelve interviews were carried out, transcribed and codified. The sampling was performed by theoretical saturation. Results: The created categories were: 1. “Identifying the importance of the literature and Arts in Medical School, seeking a rupture from the biomedical model, while improving empathy and the humanization of care”; 2. “Reflecting on the use of artistic tools to learn practical contents in Medicine and to provide psychosocial knowledge”; 3. “Proposing a possible curricular systematization, considering active methodologies and other artistic forms”; 4. “Recalling the tales that are more often associated to the student’s personal interest, which can promote the integration with all the acquired knowledge”. Based on these categories, it was possible to create the representative model of the experience that relays the students’ satisfaction with literature in medical education, enhancing the humanization of care; however, there is a need for curriculum homogenization, aiming at organizing the activity and the learning opportunity for others students. Conclusion: The model comprises the idea that literature enhances the humanization of care and is able to establish a rupture from the biomedical model. The study potential lies in proposing strategies to the community and academic management, aiming to strengthen humanization in curricular perspective of medical training.

Objetivo: avaliar o processo de realização do banho no leito e os cuidados realizados pela equipe de enfermagem antes, durante e após o banho no leito. Métodos: estudo transversal e observacional, realizado na Unidade de Terapia Intensiva de um Hospital/Escola, com oito técnicos de enfermagem. Para a coleta de dados foi utilizado instrumento estruturado tipo checklists em 30 momentos de observação de 1080 ações. Resultados: foram observados 10 cuidados antes e 28 durante e após o banho no leito. O banho foi realizado de forma automática sem comunicação prévia, sem considerar a individualidade e privacidade do paciente, principalmente naqueles submetidos a ventilação mecânica. Não houve participação do enfermeiro e a maioria das ações realizadas pela equipe de enfermagem não atendeu às recomendações da literatura. Conclusões: há necessidade de melhoria da qualidade do banho no leito realizado pela enfermagem e adoção de práticas baseadas em evidências no processo de cuidar.
