PIPAC for the Treatment of Gynecologic and Stomach Peritoneal Metastases: Specialized and Logistic Considerations of a Cycle One Tryout.
OBJECTIVE to compare the effect of exposure to unpleasant odors in a simulated clinical environment on the emotions of undergraduate nursing students. METHOD quasi-experimental study. A total of 24 nursing students participated the study, divided into two groups, 12 in the intervention group with exposure to unpleasant odors, and 12 in the control group without exposure to unpleasant odors. FRAX597 mouse To simulate the unpleasant vomiting odor in intervention group, fermented foods were used boiled oats, curdled milk, spoiled Parmesan cheese, raw egg, pea soup, raisins and vinegar. Participants were filmed and the facial expression analysis was performed at six critical points student approach; report of the complaint; clinical evaluation; and patient occurrence, intervention and reevaluation based on what was proposed by the Circumplex model of emotions recognition. RESULTS a total of 83,215 emotions related to the six critical points were verified. At the critical point of the proposed scenario with exposure to unpleasant odors, the intervention group presented the basic emotion of sadness and the Control Group, anger. CONCLUSION it is inferred that the inclusion of unpleasant odors in the simulated scenarios can broaden the emotional development of health students.OBJECTIVE to identify the intensity of depressive symptoms and their associated factors in healthcare undergraduate students. METHOD cross-sectional study developed with undergraduate health students from a public higher education institution using the Beck Depression Inventory-version II and a student characterization questionnaire. The study involved 792 participants. For data analysis, we used descriptive statistics, chi-squared test and Poisson regression. RESULTS the intensity of depressive symptoms was moderate to severe in 23.6% of the students, associated with the non-performance of physical and leisure activities and with speech therapy and nursing courses. CONCLUSION several factors may be associated with depression, thus, further investigation into the related factors that cause its emergence in this period of life is necessary, as well as raising institutional awareness and developing strategies at the personal and group level to promote well-being, improve time management and interpersonal relationships, in order to achieve better academic results and personal development.OBJECTIVE to evaluate the impact of the "Strengthening Self-Esteem" intervention proposed by the Nursing Interventions Classification, conducted through the use of Facebook, on the self-esteem and self-efficacy levels of nursing undergraduates. METHOD quasi-experimental study carried out in two Higher Education Institutions. The sample consisted of 74 students. Two data collection tools were applied before and after the intervention Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale and General and Perceived Self-Efficacy Scale. The students were submitted to the intervention for ten sessions. Posts were made in private profile created on Facebook and consisted of positive messages, reflective texts and pictures, all supported by the persuasive resources of Bandura's theoretical framework. RESULTS of the 264 students who answered the pretest, 74 (28.03%) participated in the interventions and the post-test. Rosenberg self-esteem (p=0.026) and self-efficacy (p=0.001) scores after the intervention were significantly higher than those obtained before, confirming the effectiveness of the intervention. CONCLUSION the "Strengthening Self-Esteem" intervention was effective for improving students' self-esteem and self-efficacy levels. Such interventions help spread knowledge and build mentally healthier individuals.OBJECTIVE To analyze the risk factors for death of trauma patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU). METHOD Retrospective cohort study with data from medical records of adults hospitalized for trauma in a general intensive care unit. We included patients 18 years of age and older and admitted for injuries. The variables were grouped into levels in a hierarchical manner. The distal level included sociodemographic variables, hospitalization, cause of trauma and comorbidities; the intermediate, the characteristics of trauma and prehospital care; the proximal, the variables of prognostic indices, intensive admission, procedures and complications. Multiple logistic regression analysis was performed. RESULTS The risk factors associated with death at the distal level were age 60 years or older and comorbidities; at intermediate level, severity of trauma and proximal level, severe circulatory complications, vasoactive drug use, mechanical ventilation, renal dysfunction, failure to perform blood culture on admission and Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II. CONCLUSION The identified factors are useful to compose a clinical profile and to plan intensive care to avoid complications and deaths of traumatized patients.OBJECTIVE to describe the prevalence and reasons for omission of nursing care, according to the perception of nursing professionals working in a teaching hospital. METHOD a cross-sectional study was carried out with 267 professionals from ten hospitalization units. Data were collected by the MISSCARE-Brasil instrument. Descriptive statistics and Pearson's Chi-square or Fisher's exact tests were used to compare differences in the prevalence of omission among professional categories. RESULTS among the elements of nursing care, the highest prevalence of omission consisted in to sit up the patient out of bed (70.3%), ambulation three times a day (69.1%), and participation in the discussion of the interdisciplinary team on patient's health care (67.2%). The most frequent reasons were inadequate number of staff (85.4%), inadequate number of staff for providing care or in administrative tasks (81.6%), and unexpected increase in the number and/or greater severity of patients (79.8%). Nurses reported major omission than nursing technicians/auxiliaries in four elements of care (p less then 0.05). CONCLUSION according to our study, there is high prevalence of omission of nursing care elements from the professionals' perspective. Factors related to human and material resources were more reported as causes for such omission.
