A intervenção de enfermagem : relaxamento e seus efeitos no sistema imunológico de puérperas

Abstract: Objectives: To evaluate the effects of relaxation techniques in the levels of immunoglobulin A (IgA) in saliva of postpartum women, in relationship to the variables: age, education level, marital status, type of delivery and parity. Methods: This experimental, randomized trial was conducted in a maternity ward of Espirito Santo (Brazil). The sample consisted of 60 postpartum women. The experimental group consisted of 30 postpartum women who received the relaxation technique proposed by Benson. The levels were … Show more

“…Indeed, yoga has been shown to reduce blood pressure in patients with arterial hypertension, and it can potentially be used as a non-pharmacological resource to aid patients with hypertension 12 . A study of patients in the postpartum period used the Benson relaxation technique described in this study and found a significant increase in the intervention group's immunoglobulin A (IgA) levels 13 .…”

“…Pesquisas na área de PNI têm o potencial de validar aspectos do cuidado que os enfermeiros exercem intuitivamente em benefício dos pacientes, além de, por exemplo, subsidiar a implementação do uso de terapias complementares na prática de enfermagem com respaldo cientí co. (11)(12)(13)(14) Um dos principais objetivos da pesquisa do PNI é determinar se existe uma associação válida entre fatores de risco e os desfechos imunológicos. Se, por um lado, os métodos usados nesse tipo de avaliação não estão disponíveis com facilidade para enfermeiros pesquisadores, que geralmente estão realizando pesquisas com restrições de recursos, por outro lado, os enfermeiros usam parâmetros muito amplos que consideram as mudanças siológicas dentro de um contexto psicossocial complexo.…”
