“…One research example for this inference is the study at the Ribeirão Preto Hospital das Clínicas (19) , in which 80% of the study sample lives without a partner. In a study in the Federal District, then, 61.3% of the subjects affirmed living without and 38.7% with a partner (12) .…”

The aim was to investigate the Functional Disability degree in adults with spinal cord injury and its association with socio-demographic characteristics. The Barthel Index was used and 75 subjects answered a questionnaire with socio-demographic variables. The Chi-Square, Cronbach's Alpha and Fisher tests were used in the analysis. The mean age was 42.23 years. Cronbach's Alpha for the Barthel Index was 0.807. The activities that were more difficult to perform were y Deambular (82,7%). La mediana del Índice de Barthel fue de 64 puntos. Las pruebas de asociación presentaron valores de p>0,05. A pesar de que la población presenta un grado leve de dependencia y no se identificaron asociaciones entre las variables sociodemográficas y la Incapacidad Funcional, se considera que el estudio contribuye para la asistencia de enfermería, debido a algunas limitaciones que la lesión medular impone en el auto-cuidado.

“…38 The presence of Escheria coli and Staphylococcus saprophyticus draws attention, for 67% of the patients showed UP in the coccygeal, favouring the colonization of bacterial species, commonly associated with urinary tract infections, complication usually found in patients with injury spinal medullar. 41 The Staphylococcus epidermidis, in the study, was prevalent in 80% of the sample, causing part of the endogenous microbiota. The microorganism is considered a living skin eater and mucous membranes, causing hospital-acquired infections through catheters, probes and prostheses.…”

To determine the prevalence of bacterial species in pressure ulcers (PU) in patients with spinal cord injury treated by a Physically Handicapped Association. Method: A descriptive, cross-sectional, quantitative study, conducted in a northeastern city from 2009 to 2010. The sample was consecutive, not probabilistic and comprised 20 individuals with spinal cord injury and PU being treated in the Association and without antibiotic therapy. Samples were collected from exudates of PU, using sterile swabs, plated on Blood Agar plates and incubated at 35°C for 24 hours. For identification of microorganisms were employed biochemical tests. Descriptive statistics were used for data analysis. Results: The six microorganisms were: S. aureus, S. epidermidis, S. saprophyticus, Proteus spp., Escherichia coli and Enterobacter spp. Conclusion: Additional prospective microbiological investigations are needed to assess the prevalence of pathogens in patients with PU injured thus instituting, nutritional, therapeutic and educational programs that reduce bacterial colonization and infection.

Objetivo: Determinar a prevalência de espécies bacterianas em úlceras por pressão (UP) de pacientes com lesão raquimedular assistidos por uma associação de deficientes físicos. Método: Estudo descritivo, transversal, quantitativo, conduzido em uma cidade nordestina de 2009 a 2010. A amostra foi consecutiva não probabilística e compreendeu 20 indivíduos com lesão raquimedular e UP, em acompanhamento na associação e sem uso de antibioticoterapia. Coletaram-se amostras de exsudatos das UP, utilizando suabes estéreis, semeadas em ágar sangue e incubadas a 35°C por 24 horas. Para identificação dos microrganismos, foram empregadas provas bioquímicas. Utilizou-se estatística descritiva para análise dos dados. Resultados: Os seis microrganismos encontrados foram: S. aureus, S. epidermides, S. saprophyticus, Proteus spp., Escherichia coli e Enterobacter spp. Conclusão: Investigações microbiológicas prospectivas adicionais são necessárias para avaliar a prevalência dos agentes patogênicos de UP em pacientes lesionados, a fim de instituir programas educacionais, nutricionais e terapêuticos que reduzam a colonização e infecção bacteriana.

Objetivo: Determinar la prevalencia de especies bacterianas en las úlceras por presión (UPP) en pacientes con lesión medular espinal (LME) tratada por una Asociación de Discapacitados Físicos. Método: Estudio descriptivo-transversal, cuantitativo, realizado en una ciudad del noreste en 2009-2010. La muestra fue no probabilística, secuencial y comprende 20 individuos con LME y UPP y sin tratamiento antibiótico. Se recogieron muestras de exudados de la UPP, utilizando torundas estériles, sembradas en placas de Agar Sangre y se incubaron a 35°C durante 24 horas. Los microorganismos fueron identificados por pruebas bioquímicas. Se utilizó estadística descriptiva para el análisis de da...

“…Spinal cord injury (SCI) is damage to the spinal cord resulting from trauma, compression, or total/partial rupture of nerve transmission, which leads to changes in motor, sensory and autonomic function (1,2). The condition does not generally progress to death, but limits and changes the lifestyle of those affected (3), radically altering the lives of families and the experience of living in society (4).…”

Introduction: Spinal cord injury (SCI) is debilitating and results in different social representations for the women affected in terms of their sexuality and reproduction. Objective: Describe the experience of women with SCI regarding sexuality and reproduction under these conditions. Methods: Participants were 11 women with SCI who were submitted to a semi-structured interview. The content of the interviews was inputted into ALCESTE software, a computerized technique used for text analysis. Results: The dendrogram obtained shows two clusters and five subcategories. Cluster I contains issues related to living with SCI and consists of four classes: everyday life, sexuality and reproduction, difficulties, and coping. The so-called class of perceptions is in cluster II, which addresses subjective aspects. The classes in cluster I revealed symbolism associated with sexual relations, reproduction, affective relationships before and after SCI and relationships with the body. The results indicate that sexuality among women with SCI is marked by a mixture of feelings. While they are insecure about expressing themselves sexually, they also report fear of abandonment and loneliness, possibly due to conflicts about accepting their new image, which in most cases was characterized by low self-esteem. Conclusion: The representations of the sexuality and reproduction of the women studied here are vital in the process of accepting and coping with SCI, as well as recovering their social, affective and sexual relationships.
