DOI 10.1590/0034-7167-2023-0493
Views0ABSTRACT
Objective:
To analyze the configuration of power relations among the multiprofessional team in the bedside round process in the hospital.
Methods:
Qualitative research with data analyzed through discourse analysis, based on Michel Foucault’s theoretical framework. From September to December 2022, we conducted interviews and field observations with the multiprofessional team at a hospital in Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais, Brazil, as well as qualitative, semi-structured interviews with 37 professionals.
Results:
The participants pointed out that the experiences of the professionals involved in bedside rounds depend on how the physician conducts the process, and the physician-centered process makes it difficult for other professionals in the team to participate.
Final considerations:
The way hospitals organize bedside rounds does not promote knowledge articulation for their professionals. It hinders the circulation of power and harms interdisciplinary work in a process that maintains the physician as the main actor in clinical decisions.

Methods:
a cross-sectional study was carried out by reviewing medical records and conducting postpartum interviews. Prevalence and effectiveness of analgesia were assessed.
Results:
the prevalence of non-pharmacological analgesia was 61.86% of 215 women in labor in Obstetric Center and 82.51% of 62 in midwife-led unit. Prevalence of severe pain, on the Visual Analogue Scale, before and after non-pharmacological analgesia, was from 92.16% to 64.04% (p=0.00) in Obstetric Center and from 85.96% to 52.63% (p=0.01) in midwife-led unit. Prevalence of pharmacological analgesia in Obstetric Centers was 15.81%, with no variation in severe pain (p=0.57). Patients’ request for analgesia was associated with education (p=0.00) and pain intensity (p=0.02).
Conclusions:
non-pharmacological analgesia improved pain intensity. Prevalence of pharmacological analgesic prescription was lower than that identified in developed countries. Pain management needs to consider the preferences and needs of women in labor.

Método:
Investigación cualitativa con datos analizados a través del análisis del discurso, basado en el marco teórico de Michel Foucault. De septiembre a diciembre de 2022, realizamos entrevistas y observaciones de campo con el equipo multiprofesional de un hospital de Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais, Brasil, así como entrevistas cualitativas semiestructuradas con 37 profesionales.
Resultados:
Los participantes señalaron que las experiencias de los profesionales involucrados en las rondas de cabecera dependen de cómo el médico conduce el proceso, y el proceso centrado en el médico dificulta la participación de otros profesionales del equipo.
Consideraciones finales:
La forma en que los hospitales organizan las rondas de cabecera no promueve la articulación del conocimiento de sus profesionales. Además, dificulta la circulación del poder y perjudica el trabajo interdisciplinario en un proceso que mantiene al médico como actor principal de las decisiones clínicas.

Methods:
Grounded Theory. Study approved by two Research Ethics Committees and conducted by theoretical sampling, from July 2015 to June 2017. Twenty-nine interviews were conducted with health professionals from two maternity hospitals in the Southern Region of Brazil. Data collection and analysis was performed alternately; and analysis by open, axial, and selective coding/integration.
Results:
the technocratic model still persists because the assistance is performed in a mechanized way, centered on the professionals. There is a lack of systematization of care, and under-dimensioning of the nursing staff.
Final Considerations:
obstetric nurses need to review their performance in obstetric centers, the internal organization, the dimensioning of nursing professionals, and become protagonists of care. Investment in academic training/updating the knowledge of midwifery professionals, based on scientific evidence and user-centered care is necessary.

Objective:
to identify scientific evidence on the effectiveness of using cloth masks as safe protectors against COVID-19.
Method:
an integrative review of articles available in full obtained at PubMed, CINAHL, and Web of Science. Controlled, non-controlled descriptors and keywords such as “mask”, “home-made” and “cloth” or “cotton” and “infection control” or “infection prevention” were used.
Results:
thirty-eight articles were selected; of these, seven studies made up the sample. Evidence shows that cloth masks do not have the same protective characteristics as surgical masks, indicating an increased risk of infection due to humidity, diffusion of fluids, virus retention, and improper preparation. Considering the shortage of surgical masks during the pandemic, cloth masks could be proposed as a last resort.
Conclusion:
cloth masks should be used together with preventive measures, such as home insulation, good respiratory conduct, and regular hand hygiene.

Objectives:
to evaluate the quality of primary care in leprosy control actions, to correlate effects on monitoring indicators.
Methods:
a cross-sectional study, conducted in Belo Horizonte, from July to September 2014. Interviews with 408 professionals were conducted through the application of a tool that assesses attributes of primary care in leprosy control actions, and monitoring indicators were calculated. Spearman correlation was used, significance level p < 0.05.
Results:
the overall score correlated with the percentage of cases treated in primary care and of family health staff coverage. The derived score correlated with the percentage of cases treated in primary care, and the essential score correlated with the proportion and rate of cases diagnosed, with grade 2 physical disability.
Conclusions:
the quality of leprosy control actions performed by primary care professionals produces impacts on health indicators, and developing strategies consistent with the reality of the territory is necessary.
