    Atividade física, qualidade do sono e fatores associados à capacidade para o trabalho de fisioterapeutas da linha de frente contra a COVID-19
    (Universidade Federal do Pará, 2021-06-28) MORAES, William Rafael Almeida; NEVES, Laura Maria Tomazi; http://lattes.cnpq.br/4235603520707156; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-3115-2571
    INTRODUCTION: The COVID-19 pandemic highlighted the importance of physical therapy for the control and prevention of pulmonary and musculoskeletal complications, with emphasis on the specialty Respiratory Physical Therapy and Physical Therapy in Intensive Care. However, the physical and mental demands required for work on the front lines, as well as the changes in lifestyle in the face of the pandemic, may have negatively interfered with the physical therapists' ability to work. OBJECTIVE: To associate the level of physical activity, sleep quality, and demographic and occupational factors with the work ability of physical therapists on the front lines against COVID-19. METHODS: Analytical, cross-sectional and quantitative study. Brazilian physiotherapists working on the front lines against COVID-19 answered an online questionnaire that grouped four instruments: a) demographic, occupational and lifestyle data; b) the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ); c) the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI); d) the Work Ability Index (ICT). Data were analyzed and presented in descriptive statistics (absolute and relative values, mean, standard deviation) and associations between the ICT results and the independent variables, giving significance when p ≤ 0.05. The statistical software R version 4.0.0 was used. RESULTS: Answers were obtained from all regions of Brazil. There was no association between work ability and physical activity level, but inadequate work ability was associated with poor sleep quality (p < 0.001) and ICT and PSQI values showed a significant negative correlation (r = - 0.340; p < 0.001). In the adjusted analysis, work ability was associated with female gender (p = 0.018) and with a clinical diagnosis of previous COVID-19 (p < 0.001). CONCLUSION: In times of pandemic, reduced work ability is associated with poor sleep quality but not with physical activity level among frontline physical therapists against COVID-19. The results warn about the potential impact of sleep on the work of professionals who deal with the health of the population, highlighting the need for occupational health support strategies for physical therapists, especially in periods of public health crisis.

    Trabalho do pesquisador docente: análise das vivências profissionais de pesquisadores (as) de um Programa de Pós-Graduação da Região Norte do Brasil
    (Universidade Federal do Pará, 2024-09-29) BRASIL, Maria Clara Acacio de Oliveira; OLIVEIRA, Paulo de Tarso Ribeiro de; http://lattes.cnpq.br/9266787581530443; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-1969-380X
    Work makes up a considerable portion of people's time in the most diverse realities and contexts within the capitalist system in which the world is organized. Work activity defines the way a person lives, relates and accesses the world around them. Considering the weight of work, the Psychodynamics of Work theory analyzed several aspects related to this and approached work as a producer of pleasure and suffering. The aforementioned theory brought the dynamism inherent to work and exposed that the organization and conditions of work are among the determinants of the experiences lived by each worker. In this sense, the objective of the research proposed here was to analyze the experiences of a specific category of workers: researchers and university professors inserted in a Postgraduate Program in human sciences at a public university in the northern region of Brazil. The proposal takes into account the relevance of producing research work within the university environment after years of attack on the sciences, in addition to giving emphasis to researchers located in a region with the lowest social indicators in the country in terms of economic and social development, which requires a great deal of academic effort to produce quality science. The research methodology adopted was from a qualitative perspective, of the case study type, in which the methodological techniques used were: application of individual semi-structured interviews with researchers/teachers and subsequent systematization, analysis and discussion of the information collected. The analysis of the interviewees' statements was carried out using the Content Analysis technique, with the Psychodynamics of Work as its central theoretical contribution. The main results were aspects of work organization that lead to overload and extrapolation of working hours, as well as a productivist logic of work production, in addition, working conditions were found full of infrastructural deficiencies, furthermore it was evident in the research that cooperation is full of counterpoints and suffers losses due to the way the work is organized; finally, despite the impasses encountered at work, teachers demonstrated great pleasure in the recognition present in relationships with students, peers and other university workers.
