Visando melhorar as técnicas de colheita embrionária, via transcervical em caprinos, o presente experimento testou a viabilidade da utilização da sonda uretral humana nessa espécie animal. Utilizou-se 18 animais da raça Bôer, puros de origem como doadores de embriões que, após serem superovulados foram tranqüilizados e colocados em uma mesa específica para colheita com o animal em estação. Com auxílio de espéculo vaginal, a sonda foi introduzida via transcervical no interior do corpo uterino procedendo-se as lavagens com solução fosfatada (PBS). Após as lavagens o conteúdo foi filtrado e os embriões avaliados e selecionados. Os percentuais relativos à viabilidade da passagem da cérvice, embriões coletados e volume de líquido recuperado foram de 83,3%, 81,15% e 94,3% respectivamente. A técnica adotada bem como a sonda uretral viabilizou o processo de coleta de embriões em cabras pluríparas, limitando-se contudo sua utilização em fêmeas nulíparas ou primíparas. Outras pesquisas para colher os embriões de fêmeas nulíparas são recomendadas, em função da dificuldade de se passar a cérvice com a sonda. Embryo recover in Capra hircus by human uretral catheter Abstract The viability of human urethral catheter for the recovery of Capra hircus embryos has been tested in eighteen female Boer goats used as donors after superovulation. After being subjected to vulvar and epidural sedation with 1% xylazine, the animals were placed in station on a special table adapted for the embryos collecting procedure. The human urethral catheter was positioned inside the uterus by means of a vaginal speculum. The uterus cavity was washed with a phosphate buffered solution (PBS). The relative percentiles of the viability of the cervix transposition, the collected embryos and the recovering of the washing content was of 83.3, 81.15 and 94.3%, respectively. Further research on this subject has to be carried on in regard to the use of this technique in primiparae goats.
Objective: to map the diverse scientific evidence available about the repercussions of the COVID-19 pandemic for people with Autism Spectrum Disorder and their family members. Method: a scoping review conducted in the following databases: MEDLINE, CINAHL, SciELO, SCOPUS, EMBASE and Wiley Online Library, in August and September 2021. The protocol of this review was registered at the Open Science Framework under DOI 10.17605/OSF.IO/JYTVD. The data were analyzed and synthesized in a narrative way. Results: a total of 46 publications identified indicate that the pandemic period brought about countless repercussions for the population with autism and their family members when experiencing serious difficulties in the changes or irregularities of the scheduled routines and limited access to education, therapies and social support. Conclusion: the diverse evidence suggests that the COVID-19 pandemic intensified the inequalities already experienced by individuals with autism and their family members, with negative consequences in the emotional, psychological, behavioral and social aspects, interfering with the quality of life and mental health of this population segment. Future studies on individuals with autism and their families during public health crisis periods are of fundamental importance for planning psychiatric, psychosocial and educational interventions.
As teorias de enfermagem atuam como suplementos para o desenvolvimento da Sistematização da Assistência de Enfermagem, é a partir delas que o enfermeiro se baseia cientificamente e estabelece planos de cuidados orientados e clinicamente científicos para a promoção da saúde. Esta revisão objetivou descrever os principais elementos das teorias do autocuidado e adaptação e suas associações para a prática clínica a partir da Sistematização da Assistência de Enfermagem. Trata-se de uma Revisão Narrativa da Literatura, de caráter descritivo e abordagem qualitativa, desenvolvida a partir da Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde e bases de dados LILACS, BDENF e MEDLINE. As teorias de enfermagem atuam como um grande amparo para o desenvolvimento do exercício do enfermeiro, uma vez que estas são fundamentos teóricos/científicos que delineiam planos adequados para implementação da assistência e efetividade do plano de cuidados rentabilizando benefícios para a saúde de usuários dos sistemas de saúde. Diante do contexto, a aplicação de tais teorias dentro da sistematização viabiliza o Processo de Enfermagem, de modo a contribuir com a assistência qualificada que aborda o paciente de forma holística, considerando os aspectos sociais, familiares e físicos.
Introduction: Quality of Life (QoL) of the elderly is a complex process, not only by the subjectivity of the term, but also due to the heterogeneity of the elderly. So, analyzing QoL of the elderly is an important way to know better who provides care, allowing the proposal of interventions beyond the treatment of diseases. Results:The average age was of 68.8 years old. There was a predominance of women with low income and education. After eight months of follow-up, the elderly showed improvement in SF-36 parameters: Functional Capacity; Physical Aspects; Pain; General Health; Vitality and Mental Health; and WHOQOL-Bref (Physical, Psychological and Environment Domain, and Quality of Life). Conclusion:There was the importance of interdisciplinary actions to improve the quality of life of elderly people, suggesting that interdisciplinarity can be a relevant strategy in the work of health professionals.Impact of the actions of an interdisciplinary team in the elderly quality of life ORIGINAL Raimunda de Fátima
Objective: To investigate the spread of knowledge regarding silicosis and to identify the occupational health nurse course of action to prevent it. Method: It is an integrative review of the literature held in the databases: LILACS, SciELO, BDENF and PubMed. The employed keywords were "silicosis", "occupational health nursing" and "pneumoconiosis", published in Portuguese, Spanish and English, in the years of 2004 to 2014. Eight articles met the inclusion criteria were selected and answered the guiding questions. Results: The selected articles seek to deepen the knowledge on silicosis, to estimate its prevalence, to establish the patient's profile, to describe the major symptoms, to identify the major risk factors associated with the disease and to evaluate the quality of living of those afflicted by it. Conclusion: Silicosis is a public health problem with high prevalence and which requires very specific strategies to its prevention and control, especially those developed in occupational health nursing.
