The findings of this study support the need to establish clinical guidelines for its utilization and to educate other specialists on end-of-life care approaches, and the need to develop PC programs in acute care hospitals in Latin America.
El presente manuscrito es un ejercicio teórico/práctico realizado para apoyar una propuesta disciplinar emergente. El objetivo es visibilizar la necesidad de realizar intervenciones que apunten a lograr una inclusión sociocomunitaria Se elaboró luego de revisar y analizar los resultados y conclusiones de una investigación de magister y la práctica profesional del autor y la autora en la estrategia de Rehabilitación Basada en la Comunidad en las comunas de Hualpén y Talcahuano, en la región del Biobío. A partir de ahí, se articularon constructos epistemológicos para una propuesta metodológica de intervención de Terapia Ocupacional Comunitaria que permita comprometerse con la realidad y las necesidades ocupacionales de las personas de nuestro espacio regional geopolítico. El trabajo se estructuró en torno a aproximaciones conceptuales de Terapia Ocupacional Comunitaria y luego una lectura aplicada en la estrategia de Rehabilitación Basada en la Comunidad.
Background: Analgesia by specialists with formal training in pain management could be more effective, to find out, the results of a team of an acute pain service will be determined. Methods: Retrospective study (n = 108) of post-operative (POP) analgesia; two evaluations were taken: before starting analgesics in the immediate POP period and the second at 24 h. A multivariate analysis was performed to establish independent risk factors associated with the effectiveness of the treatment. Results: The effectiveness was 81.48% at 24 h. The risk factors associated with poor management effectiveness were: a comorbidity, prevalence ratio (PR) = 1.22; fibromyalgia (PR = 8.47), and cancer (PR = 2.47). The duration of surgery was associated with poor control PR = 1.10 for each hour elapsed. Protective factors for poor pain control: administration of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs during the POP period (PR = 0.11) and use of analgesia controlled by the patient (PR = 0.29). Conclusion: POP pain relief is multifactorial; the participation of specialists was very effective. Identification of risk factors led to closer follow-up.
