Competências em promoção da saúde: conformações e recursos mobilizados na residência multiprofissional

Resumo Objetivo reconhecer a conformação de competências em promoção da saúde na residência multiprofissional em saúde. Método estudo qualitativo, realizado junto aos programas de residência multiprofissional do estado do Ceará e orientado pelo referencial do Competences in Health Promotion Project (CompHP). Participaram 13 profissionais do colegiado docente de cinco programas de residência com atuação prioritária na atenção básica. Os dados foram coletados por meio de entrevistas semiestruturadas e interpretados por meio de dendrograma organizado no ALCESTE. Resultados duas classes foram originadas relacionando as concepções do colegiado docente da residência sobre competências, competência em promoção da saúde e seu desenvolvimento a partir do processo formativo da residência multiprofissional. O desenvolvimento de competências em promoção da saúde na residência multiprofissional envolve a articulação de atributos psicomotores, cognitivos e afetivos. Para tanto, valorizam-se as práticas coletivas e multiprofissionais, utilizando estratégias de comunicação, educação popular e identificação de parcerias, entre outros. Considerações finais e implicações para a prática fomentar o desenvolvimento de competências em promoção da saúde contribui com a superação de modelos tradicionais de ensino e práticas de saúde, entretanto, aspectos políticos, institucionais e sociais destacam a necessidade de cautela no desenvolvimento de estudos pautados na formação de equipes multiprofissionais, representando limitações do estudo.

EDUCATIONAL INTERVENTIONS IN IMPROVING QUALITY OF LIFE FOR HYPERTENSIVE PEOPLE: INTEGRATIVE REVIEW

ABSTRACT Objective: to evaluate the effectiveness of educational interventions in improving the quality of life of people with arterial hypertension. Method: an integrative literature review which included studies that conducted educational interventions aimed at the hypertensive public to improve quality of life. The search was performed in the following databases: MEDLINE, LILACS, IBECS, CUMED, BDENF, SciELO and CINAHL, without restriction of language, date and sample size. For this, the following descriptors were crossed: “hipertensão” (hypertension), “educação em saúde” (health education) and “qualidade de vida” (quality of life). 619 articles were retrieved and after the selection and analysis process, a total of 10 made up this review. Data extraction and analysis were performed with the help of validated instruments and the result summarized. Results: Most studies were developed on a quasi-experimental basis, using generic instruments to measure quality of life with significant improvement after educational interventions, with group technology being the most used educational strategy. Just one study used a specific instrument to evaluate hypertensive patients. Conclusion: these results may direct the interventions to be implemented by health professionals in managing arterial hypertension. Further investigations are needed to identify and verify the most effective interventions for hypertensive patients, considering heterogeneous profiles and aiming at improving quality of life.

[Interventions for stroke survivor caregivers: a systematic reviewIntervenciones para los cuidadores de los sobrevivientes de un accidente cerebrovascular: revisión sistemática]

OBJECTIVE

To synthesize and critically review the literature on interventions aimed at decreasing the burden of stroke survivor caregivers and other associated factors.

METHOD

The literature search for the present systematic review was performed in PubMed, SciELO, Coordination for the Improvement of Higher Education Personnel (CAPES) website, and the Virtual Health Library using the following search terms: Stroke AND Caregivers AND Intervention; and Stroke AND Caregivers AND clinical trial. Eight randomized controlled clinical trials (RCT) published between 2008 and 2017 were selected.

RESULTS

The selected studies were performed in Sweden, Taiwan, Germany, China, India, and the United States. Psychoeducational, support, and skill acquisition interventions produced positive results for caregivers - in the psychological, physical, and social domains, in the quality of the care provided, and in the acquisition of knowledge by caregivers - and for stroke survivors - for example, decreased use of health care services and improved capacity for self-care. The critical evaluation of the studies showed that none met all the methodological requirements for RCTs. The main limitations were missing data and the heterogeneity of interventions.

CONCLUSION

The interventions had positive results for caregivers and survivors. However, future studies should consider long term assessments of the outcomes, with detailed description of the baseline needs that guided the study and the sharing of the support materials used to allow the intervention to be reproduced.
