Introduction: Oncology is the area of cancer-related research. The most advanced stage of cancer can lead to the terminal state, which is a time when the disease becomes "unrecoverable" for the nursing team, heading towards death without anyone being able to do anything to change its destiny, except how it goes spend your final moments. Objective: To analyze the scientific evidence related to nurses' interventions in cancer patients during the terminal phase. Methodology: This is an integrative review. Open access scientific articles published in scientific journals between 2013 and 2021 were categorized. At the end of the evaluation stages, we selected 7 articles that enabled the execution of this study. Results and discussion: Three main pieces of information were identified regarding the work of nurses for palliative care, which are: importance of nursing communication in palliative patient care; the pharmacological and non-pharmacological care procedures performed by nurses; and the main professional difficulties that nurses face in patient care. Conclusion: Communication is the basis of nurses' work in palliative care. The uses of treatments aim to reduce the patient's symptoms and pain, increasing their quality of life during their final moments. And among the challenges, the service overload, the lack of resources and protocols to perform palliative care and the possibility of suffering the impacts of the negative feelings that the patient and family have at that time stand out.

Práticas Integrativas no tratamento da ansiedade
Resumo:
Introduction: Integrative and Complementary Practices (PICS) use therapeutic resources that are based on traditional knowledge, with the aim of preventing various diseases such as anxiety. In the case of Integrative Health Practices (PIS), the focus of this article, they can be understood as technologies that treat the health of the individual in its multidimensionality - physical, emotional, mental, social and spiritual - in order to promote, maintain and recover health. . Review: This article aims to present alternative therapies for the treatment of anxiety, such as aromatherapy, floral therapy, homeopathy and acupuncture. Discussion: They are known as integrative practices and are currently applied with private clinics and by the Unified Health System (SUS). These are technologies that obtain satisfactory results, through a welcoming listening, with a therapeutic bond, which integrates the individual with the environment and society. The PIS have a transversal, transdisciplinary and intersectoral character. Its validation in the SUS occurs through the criterion of the traditionality of its use, as well as through proof of its benefits. Final Considerations: These Integrative and Complementary Health Practices (PICs) were instituted in Brazil in 2006, and are considered by the World Health Organization (WHO) as traditional medicine practices. This means that the knowledge, skills and practices applied in these types of therapies are based on theories, beliefs and experiences from different cultures, with a focus on health maintenance, prevention, diagnosis, improvement or treatment of physical and mental illnesses. The main difference between PICs and traditional medicine is that conventional medicine tends to treat symptoms separately; in the case of the practice of PICs, these are treatments that see the individual as a whole, not just as a set of symptoms.

Atendimento odontológico em gestantes
Resumo:
Introduction: A woman in the gestational period goes through several physical, psychological and hormonal changes. These changes associated with carelessness with oral health can generate several changes in the mother's oral cavity and impact the baby's health in the future. Review: Pregnant women are more susceptible to oral health problems (dental caries, periodontal disease, tooth erosion and granuloma), due to changes in diet, reduced salivary secretion, inadequate oral hygiene practices, frequent nausea and high hormone levels. Discussion: Pregnant women hardly seek dental care during the gestational period, due to fear, misinformation and anxiety about the procedures, in addition, the insecurity and failures regarding the guidance by dentists and doctors about care during pregnancy can collaborate even more to the aggravation of the problem. Final considerations: The most favorable period for attending pregnant women is in the second trimester of pregnancy. However, in urgent cases and infectious foci in the oral cavity, no procedure is totally contraindicated, following the proper protocols.

O papel do Helicobacter pylori no desenvolvimento do esôfago de Barret: uma revisão sistemática
Resumo:
Introduction: Barrett’s Esophagus is a premalignant condition of the esophagus in which normal stratified squamous epithelium is replaced by intestinal-type metaplastic columnar epithelium after prolonged injury to the esophageal mucosa due to gastroesophageal reflux disease. Helicobacter pylori is a gram-negative bacterium that selectively colonizes the gastric epithelium and is associated with a number of gastroduodenal diseases. Objectives: This study aimed to assess, by means of a systematic revision, the role of Helicobacter pylori in the development of Barrett’s Esophagus. Methods: The most relevant studies originally published in Portuguese and in English in the last 10 years have been analyzed, having as a reference the MedLine (National Library of Medicine) database. In order to select studies with the greatest scientific evidence, only clinical trials and observational studies have been considered. Results: This revision consists of eight articles with equivalent results concerning the positive and protective role of H. pylori in the development of Barrett’s Esophagus, and of one article with an opposite result given the evidence presented. Conclusion: According to our results and to most conclusions available in literature, although H. pylori favors the prevention of Barrett’s Esophagus, the bacterium is considered the main cause of active chronic gastritis and plays a relevant role in the development of gastric adenocarcinoma and of other gastroduodenal diseases.

Introduction: According to Anvisa, every year about 30 thousand tons of medicines are discarded by consumers in Brazil, unfortunately 81% of them are distributed between garbage and water. Given this concern, in 2020 Decree 10,388 of 2020 was published, which regulates the reverse logistics of medicines, involving the entire process of disposing of domestic, industrialized and/or manipulated medicines, expired or in disuse. The objective was to carry out educational measures that assist in the implementation of the Federal Decree that stipulated the reverse logistics program, as well as analyze the impact of the measures. Material and methods: The present study was carried out with 300 adult individuals aged 18 years or over, residents of the municipality of São João da Boa Vista, who were submitted to a questionnaire to assess their knowledge about discarding medications and were subsequently oriented about correct form and location for disposal. For this, a partnership was formed with three local drugstores and monthly the medicines discarded in these drugstores were weighed and classified as solid, liquid and semi-solid (ointment, cream, gel. Results and discussion: It could be noted that most respondents discard medications in the common garbage. It was also observed that the “homemade drugstore” is present in more than 90% of the homes of the survey participants. After conducting the research and providing adequate guidance on the correct disposal of medications, it was possible to observe an increase of approximately 75% in disposal at the partner collection points. Final considerations: The present study showed that expanding the number of collection points and adopting educational measures are essential for the implementation of Decree 10,388/20, which regulates the reverse logistics of medicines.

Estudo da utilização de antimicrobianos em uma população
Resumo:
Introduction: Antimicrobials are natural or synthetic substances capable of destroying or inhibiting microorganisms. The indiscriminate use of these drugs in people of any age or gender is one of the causes of bacterial resistance. The health professional, especially the pharmacist, must have very broad knowledge to guide patients in relation to the indiscriminate use of antimicrobials, because as a result of incorrect use there can be adverse reactions, bacterial resistance and an increase in hospital admissions, in addition to these factors can lead the patient to death. In hospitals, being the gateway to infections, the use of antimicrobials increases, as a result the length of stay can also be longer. As for the prescription, it is necessary for the physician to have notions of infections, because when antimicrobials are no longer effective, infections suffer progression, without having a therapeutic action to fight them. Side effects can be seen in anyone, some are more susceptible to symptoms. To reduce misuse, it is necessary that the pharmacist provides adequate assistance and guidance to the patient. The aim of this study was to analyse how antimicrobials are used, determining which are the most consumed. This is a cross-sectional descriptive research that approached people who used antimicrobials, this research was intended to address from how they were prescribed to their administration and side effects. Material and methods: The instrument used for data collection was a questionnaire with open and closed questions with the aim of tracing the profile of the people interviewed and evaluating the use of antimicrobials. The questionnaire had 28 questions, in which patients were asked about sex, age, family income, marital status, education, alcohol consumption, physical exercise, smoking, health problems, continuous use medication, use of antimicrobials, prescriptions, side effects and tests, for the classification of drugs, the ATC standards were used. Results and discussion: In this study 67 people participated, where it was possible to observe that 60 (89.6%) people used antimicrobials in 2017. Final considerations: It is concluded that most respondents had a prescription for the use of antimicrobials, which is an important factor in the proper treatment, and it is also important, at the time of dispensing the antimicrobial, that the pharmacist guide the patients, avoiding indiscriminate use, which generate bacterial resistance, adverse reactions, increased hospital admissions and numerous serious causes.

A importância das políticas públicas para o tratamento da hemoglobinúria paroxística noturna
Resumo:
Introduction: Rare disease is classified as one that affects up to 65 people per 100,000 individuals. They are usually chronic and degenerative conditions, many of them without a cure or effective and accessible treatment, which cause a high degree of morbidity and mortality, in addition to facing a great challenge, because due to their low incidence, health professionals do not have the knowledge about their existence, which reflects in a late diagnosis and lack of public health preparation. Review: This article focuses on the rare disease called Paroxysmal Nocturnal Hemoglobinuria (PNH) and its scenario in public health. Discussion: The PNH is characterized as a rare acquired chronic hemolytic anemia, caused by the non-malignant clonal expansion of one or several hematopoietic stem cells, developing various symptoms in their carriers. Its estimated annual incidence is 1.3 new cases per one million individuals, but as it is a difficult disease to diagnose, the number may be underestimated and does not reflect reality. Final considerations: PNH patients face a long and difficult trajectory, from diagnosis to effective treatment. Even with established guidelines, many patients with rare diseases and their respective families receive unequal treatment in the health service. Public policies are necessary and need to be effective to improve access to information and treatment, provide the necessary structure and follow-up, to reduce the impact caused by these diseases and contribute to improving the quality of life of patients.
Keywords: rare disease, paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria, PNH, public health, unified health system, SUS.

Integrative literature review on COVID-19 racial ethnic disparities among black pregnant and postpartum women
Resumo:
Introdução: As mulheres pretas grávidas e puérperas têm um risco de morte da COVID-19 quase duas vezes maior do que o das mulheres brancas. Estudos brasileiros detalham o impacto das falhas dos serviços de saúde nesta tragédia em que 15% das mulheres grávidas ou pós-parto que morreram da COVID-19 até Julho de 2020 não receberam assistência ventilatória, 28% não tiveram acesso à UTI, 36% não foram entubadas nem receberam ventilação mecânica. Revisão: Revisão Integrativa da Literatura (RIL), adotando os seguintes critérios de inclusão: artigos publicados a partir de Março de 2020, artigos disponíveis electronicamente e gratuitamente em bases de dados/portais. Os critérios de exclusão foram: artigos que não correspondiam recorte temporal de 2020/2021, que não estavam em inglês e português, textos não disponíveis na íntegra, artigos duplicados na base de dados e artigos de revisão. A coleta de dados foi realizada de Maio a Julho de 2021, na base de dados/portal Web Of Science, Science Direct (SciVerse) de Elsevier Scientific Publications, National Library of Medicine (PUBMED) e Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System Online (MEDLINE). Foram utilizados os seguintes Descritores de Ciências da Saúde (DeCS): "COVID-19" OR "SARS-COV" AND "Mulheres Negras" OR "Mulheres Negras" AND "Grávidas" OR "Gravidez" AND "Racismo" OR "Racismo". Discussão: Para selecção de artigos, iniciou-se a pesquisa na base de dados Web Of Science, resultando em 02 artigos, dos quais 02 foram seleccionados para leitura completa e, após uma leitura crítica e completa, 01 artigo foi incluído na revisão. Em Science Direct foram seleccionados 02 artigos, dos quais 02 foram seleccionados para uma leitura completa e, após uma leitura crítica e exaustiva, 01 artigo foi incluído na revisão. No PUBMED, 26 artigos resultaram, 10 foram seleccionados para uma leitura completa e, após uma leitura crítica e exaustiva, 6 artigos foram incluídos na revisão. Finalmente, MEDLINE resultou em 18 artigos, dos quais 5 foram seleccionados para uma leitura completa e, após uma leitura crítica e exaustiva, 3 artigos foram incluídos na revisão. Considerações finais: O estudo incluiu estudos observacionais, com pequenas amostras e grupos étnicos diversos, não permitindo conclusões eficazes. Destacam os estudos brasileiros que utilizaram bases de dados secundárias e baseadas na população, encontraram a raça/cor preta como fator de risco independentemente associado à severidade da COVID-19.
