“…1 The populations that (re)exist in rural areas face inequities related both to the difficult accessibility to services and the low availability of health professionals to meet their demands and to differentiated patterns of illness, with the persistence of endemic patterns and quality of life indices that are poorer than those of the general population. 2 The work of nursing in rural areas is marked by specificities, as it involves the development of a work process that professionals generally did not experience during their academic training, which is generalist, does not contemplate the rural reality and does not contribute to break the cycle of invisibility of this population. 3,4 From this perspective, rural health research emerges as a foundation capable of helping to understand rural health and has gradually gained space and solidity on a path that presents itself as an instrument of social justice.…”

Resumo Objetivo caracterizar a produção Stricto sensu da pós-graduação brasileira em Enfermagem sobre a temática saúde da população rural. Método revisão compreensiva realizada por meio da Plataforma Sucupira. Estabeleceram-se, como amostra, dissertações e teses de mestrado e doutorado das quais foram extraídas informações que constituíram dois bancos de dados submetidos à análise estatística descritiva e textual. Resultados 118 relatórios de pesquisa compuseram a amostra. Identificou-se maior quantitativo de estudos produzidos do tipo dissertação de mestrado, provenientes da região Sul do Brasil, publicados entre 2015 e 2016 e que utilizaram abordagens quantitativas. A análise exploratória permitiu constatar que as pesquisas desenvolvidas versavam sobre três temáticas centrais: políticas públicas e serviços de atenção à saúde, cuidado cultural no contexto familiar e saúde do idoso rural. Conclusões e implicações para a prática a produção sobre a saúde rural em nível de pós-graduação Stricto sensu em Enfermagem no Brasil aponta para um novo leque de possibilidades de investigação e poderá contribuir para as práticas de cuidado que os enfermeiros rurais realizam.

The coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic has overwhelmed health care systems in many countries and bed availability has become a concern. In this context, the present study aimed to analyze the hospitalization and intensive care unit (ICU) times in patients diagnosed with COVID-19. The study covered 55,563 ICU admissions and 238,075 hospitalizations in Brazilian Health System units from February 22, 2020, to June 7, 2021. All the patients had a positive COVID-19 diagnosis. The symptoms analyzed included: fever, dyspnea, low oxygen saturation (SpO2 < 95%), cough, respiratory distress, fatigue, sore throat, diarrhea, vomiting, loss of taste, loss of smell, and abdominal pain. We performed Cox regression in two models (ICU and hospitalization times). Hazard ratios (HRs) and survival curves were calculated by age group. The average stay was 14.4 days for hospitalized patients and 12.4 days for ICU patients. For hospitalized cases, the highest hazard mean values, with a positive correlation, were for symptoms of dyspnea (HR = 1.249; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.225–1.273) and low oxygen saturation (HR = 1.157; 95% CI 1.137–1.178). In the ICU, the highest hazard mean values were for respiratory discomfort (HR = 1.194; 95% CI 1.161–1.227) and abdominal pain (HR = 1.100; 95% CI 1.047–1.156). Survival decreased by an average of 2.27% per day for hospitalization and 3.27% per day for ICU stay. Survival by age group curves indicated that younger patients were more resistant to prolonged hospital stay than older patients. Hospitalization was also lower in younger patients. The mortality rate was higher in males than females. Symptoms related to the respiratory tract were associated with longer hospital stay. This is the first study carried out with a sample of 238,000 COVID-19 positive participants, covering the main symptoms and evaluating the hospitalization and ICU times.
