    Elaboração de manual para medicamentos orais administrados via sonda em Unidade de Terapia Intensiva (UTI) neonatal
    (Universidade Federal do Pará, 2023-09-01) AZEVEDO, Lucília Lima; COSTA, Russany Silva da; http://lattes.cnpq.br/0435018266499256; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-2705-1591
    Neonatal Intensive Care Units (NICU) accommodate several health professionals, working together to ensure comprehensive care for patients. Since the 1990s, the pharmaceutical professional has been proposed as one of the fundamental members of the multidisciplinary team caring for critically ill patients. The challenge of safe and appropriate drug use in the neonatal period is daunting and is made more complicated by the notorious lack of evidence based data to guide decision-making. The present work aimed to develop a manual for the use of oral medications prescribed for administration via tube to hospitalized patients, to support the development of a guidance instrument for the multidisciplinary team. This is a documentary study of a descriptive, analytical and retrospective nature with a quantitative approach, where data were analyzed from medical prescriptions from the NICU in the period from January 1, 2020 to December 31, 2021, excluding newborns with length of stay of less than 24 hours and/or who did not have a prescription for medication to be administered via a tube and nursing report forms. During the study, 633 newborns were admitted to the NICU, of which 23.5% were excluded due to a length of stay of less than 24 hours, 18.4% due to lack of information in the medical record and 34.1% because they did not have a medication prescription via tube. In this sense, the study population consisted of 151 newborns, of which 53.6% were male and 46.4% were female, the majority of which were born through surgical delivery (59.6%). This population weighed between 750g and 4,515g, with the statistically significant majority being underweight (59.6%), followed by those with very low weight (23.8%). The average stay in the ICU was 12.6 days, with a minimum of 2 days and a maximum of 40 days. Furthermore, the most prevalent diagnosis was prematurity, which reached 72.2%, with 47.7% of isolated prematurity and 24.5% of prematurity plus Respiratory Distress Syndrome (RDS), with the proportion of prematurity being statistically significant in in relation to other diagnoses. Almost 50% of newborns were prescribed three or more medications, where it was found that the most prescribed medications were antiphysetics and antiemetics (Simethicone/Domperidone: 42.2 and Bromopride: 24.6%), the most frequent pharmaceutical form was liquid (90.7%), and can be administered through a tube (98.0%), without interacting with medication (98.0%) or with diet (parenteral nutrition) (89.4%). In nursing reports, 79.2% stated that they had prepared/administered a medication prescribed for administration via tube and 73% of professionals stated that they had doubts regarding the preparation and administration of medications. The most frequent question was about administration (10 out of 14-71.4%). There were also doubts regarding dilution and incompatibility of the medicine (35.7% both), as well as preparation, crushing and closing time (21.4% each). Therefore, the need to develop a Manual that will contribute as a tool for good practices in the administration of medications via tube stands out, as a tool aimed mainly at the nursing professional, an active participant in this process.

    INTRODUCTION: Tuberculosis (TB) is an infectious disease that remains a serious global public health problem, and lack of adherence to treatment contributes to the development of resistant strains. OBJECTIVE: To build a web application as a technology to assist in the management of adverse reactions related to the treatment of MDR TB in patients treated at the João de Barros Barreto University Hospital (HUJBB). METHODOLOGY: This is a cross sectional, observational, descriptive study on patients diagnosed with multidrug-resistant TB (MDR TB) in the intensive phase of treatment. In addition, methodological research into technological development was carried out, which consists of building a product that can be implemented in the care of patients with MDR TB. The web application was validated by health professionals who work at the MDR TB Outpatient Clinic and the HUJBB Outpatient Pharmacy using the form with responses on the Likert scale. RESULTS: In this study, 17 patients were evaluated, with a predominance of females (52.94%), between 50 and 59 years old (29.41%). Furthermore, regarding the lifestyle habits of the researched population, it was found that 7 claimed to be alcohol drinkers (33.33%), 5 smokers (23.81%) and 3 illicit drug users (14.29%). The most predominant clinical complaints were arthralgia, nausea, vomiting and anxiety. Regarding comorbidities, 60% reported having diabetic mellitus (DM), while the other items, such as systemic arterial hypertension (SAH), asthma, osteoporosis and neuropathy presented equal distribution with 10% each. Regarding laboratory tests, the hematimetric parameters of 47.06% of the patients presented anemia, while the biochemical parameters were observed values above the reference for: fasting glycemia, creatinine, TGO, TGP, alkaline phosphatase, GAMMA GT, amylase, lipase and in total bilirubin and fractions. Based on this information, a web application was built and, subsequently, the application was validated using a Likert scale with health professionals. Thus, a Global Content Validation Index (Global CVI) of 0.93 was obtained. To be considered valid, the Global CVI must present a value equal to or greater than 0.78. CONCLUSION: The application proved to be valid for use as a tool for managing complaints related to the treatment of MDR TB.

    Processo de gestão e gerenciamento de órteses, próteses e materiais especiais pelo serviço de farmácia de um hospital público referência em cardiologia, Belém, Pará
    (Universidade Federal do Pará, 2023-08-01) RIBEIRO, Saulo Coelho Assis; SOLER, Orenzio; http://lattes.cnpq.br/4041958877867484; https://orcid.org/0000-0003-2246-0019; REIS, Danielle Saraiva Tuma dos; http://lattes.cnpq.br/0078006954066414; https://orcid.org/0000-0003-3966-2901
    INTRODUCTION: Orthoses, Prostheses and Special Materials (OPME) are products used in medical, dental and physiotherapy procedures; as well as in the diagnosis, treatment, rehabilitation or monitoring of patients. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the management process of Orthoses, Prostheses and Special Materials (OPME) used by the Hemodynamics Service, aiming to present potential complications for their qualification. METHODOLOGY: This is a cross-sectional, quantitative and retrospective action research (January to December 2021). Based on the Hemodynamics OPME form from the Fundação Hospital de Clínicas Gaspar Vianna (FHCGV) and the Electronic Administrative Process (PAE) of the State of Pará. The proposals with potential interventions were based on the tool Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats - Strengths, Opportunities, Weaknesses and Threats (SWOT/FOFA). RESULT: a record of 18 prosthesis implantation procedures for occlusion of the Interatrial Communication was found, for both sexes, with a cost of R$ 524,995.00. There were 63 endovascular procedures in 2021, and it was found that the average waiting time for patients is approximately 88.6 days. With regard to the processing time of bidding processes, in the internal phase, the longest time identified was in the Permanent Bidding Committee (CPL) sector, totaling five months, referring to endovascular and congenital OPME. In the external phase, both classes of materials also took the longest processing time. Furthermore, there is a difference of R$ 883,153.00 reimbursed to the Hospital through the SIGTAP/SUS table. A low rate of studies that could support the research was noted, however, the Pharmaceutical Assistance (AF) cycle is an essential method for improving the management and management process. It was found that the bidding process in the public service is slow, as it crosses several sectors, generating an impact on the time required to request/acquire this material, also affecting the time to carry out the procedure. CONCLUSION: The OPME topic is complex and little explored by scholars, however, it requires “many hands” to obtain the biggest objective, which is the quality provided to the user. It is believed that interventions to qualify the OPME management process at FHCGV will provide improvements in the management of the OPME sector, as well as the Institution's processes and flows that will provide quality service to the user.

    Introduction: The Intensive Care Unit (ICU) is a hospitalization unit for critically ill patients, whomostly use sedatives and analgesics. Seeking tominimize undesirable events, clinical follow-up of patients, especially pediatric patients, is necessary. Objective: To propose an instrument for pharmacotherapeutic monitoring of patients undergoing sedoanalgesia in the pediatric ICU. Method: Retrospective study, with data collected from medical records of patients aged 0 to 14 years, admitted to the pediatric ICU during the study period, who used sedoanalgesics. Results and discussion: In 326 prescriptions in the 90-day period involving 96 children, the age group of07-09 years predominated, with 49.2% underweight and predominantly male. Among the drugs prescribed were antimicrobials, sedoanalgesics, antipyretics and proton pump inhibitors. The average length of hospital stay was 18.5 days and approximately 32.7% of the patients had Withdrawal Syndrome (AS), corroborating the literature, where it is postulated that the longer thetime of use of these drugs, the greater the risk of SA. In 25% of the patients, 42.5% used antidotesother than those recommended by the Pediatrics and Pediatric & Neonatal Dosage Handbook. Asa product, a Manual for the Use of Sedoanalgesics was prepared to guide the multidisciplinary team in the care of patients during therapy. Conclusion: The data from this research indicated anunderweight public, the occurrence of medication errors and withdrawal syndrome, among otherfactors that reinforce the need for the elaboration of an institutionalized protocol for the administration of sedoanalgesics, aiming to guarantee patient safety, prevent the occurrence of adverse events related to its use and direct the multidisciplinary team on the care to be adopted.

    Introduction: Health services, especially hospital institutions, are complex systems that involve several risks, which can be exemplified by drug therapy. Investigation and knowledge of the factors that determine the occurrence of medication errors allow for actions that strengthen safety in the medication chain and the patient. Objective: Implement actions to improve safety, prescription, administration and quality use of medicines in a hospital in Belém, Pará, Amazon. Method: The study took place in a philanthropic hospital, located in the city of Belém, Pará. A quantitative study was carried out in the action-research modality, data collection took place from December to January 2022, a semi-structured form was applied to assess patient safety in dispensing, preparation and administration. Results and discussion: 43 collaborators participated in this study, the analysis of the responses to the workers' behavior allowed us to identify that the professionals reported unsatisfactory performance of 4 actions (event notification; multidose recording; recording of temperature and medication by verbal order). From the weaknesses found, strategies were presented to minimize these occurrences, they are: elaboration of the safety protocol, use and administration of medications, standard operating procedure for high-alert medication and protocol for the use of multi-dose medications. Conclusion: It was identified that despite the knowledge of the risks and the need to guarantee patient safety through protocols for health services, it was noticed the need to implement basic and fundamental actions through institutional standards and routines, in accordance with with the local reality. Actions, when systematized, become possible applications in the safety of medication use and contribute to reducing potential risks and promoting safety and quality in the health work process.

    Desenvolvimento de uma cartilha de dispensação farmacêutica em Farmácias comunitárias
    (Universidade Federal do Pará, 2022-09-05) SOUZA, Marcos Felipe Rodrigues de; SENA, Luann Wendel Pereira de; http://lattes.cnpq.br/6233488431016391; https://orcid.org/0000-0001-9363-5766
    Introduction: The pharmacist is currently the most accessible member of the health team and the first source of assistance and advice in general health care. Its rapprochement with the pharmacy and performance in patient care, no longer focusing its actions exclusively on the medication, meant that the dispensing process was understood as an essential action for the promotion of health and the rational use of medications (URM), in addition to including pharmaceutical services, which encompasses a set of actions performed by a pharmaceutical professional. Objectives: To develop a pharmaceutical dispensing booklet in community pharmacies in order to improve pharmaceutical dispensing, as well as guide new pharmaceutical professionals in the commercial pharmacy market. Methodology: The study is characterized by being an analytical descriptive study aiming at the development of a pharmaceutical dispensing flowchart. This consists of showing the drug dispensing process in a safe and coherent way, analyzing all decisions. Results and discussions: The method of care in dispensing medicines and pharmaceutical services in community pharmacies are presented in a flowchart format, aiming to establish a standard method to be adopted in any establishment that performs direct dispensing to the user and guarantee quality of care. Final considerations: Pharmaceutical clinical services develop great attributions for the professional who has theoretical and practical knowledge. Therefore, the provision of pharmaceutical care through the first contact that usually takes place at the time of dispensing requires care and attention, given that in this process, in addition to dispensing, a complete anamnesis with the patient and relevant information regarding education in health, drug interactions and other questions that the patient may have. Therefore, the activity of pharmaceutical care needs to be more effective in a community pharmacy.
