Due to the specific characteristics of the Brazilian population, spirituality, or spiritual well-being, is an important factor in the way individuals face the HIV/AIDS problematic and its consequences. This work seeks to understand the spirituality of people living with HIV in light of Neuman’s Systems Model. Methods and Finding: This is a qualitative, descriptive-exploratory research in light of the Systems Model proposed by Betty Neuman. Data collection took place between the months of March and August 2016 in an outpatient clinic of a university hospital located in the city of Recife, Pernambuco, Brazil, specialized in the treatment of patients with HIV/AIDS. Thirty people living with HIV participated in the study. The data were collected through a questionnaire and an interview with a semi-structured script and underwent categorical content analysis. The understanding of spirituality in living with HIV is presented in three categories: the discovery of the diagnosis and the initial reactions — stressors that affect the lines of defense; the spiritual and religious search — protection when stressors penetrate the lines of defense; and the influence of faith combined with ART in living with HIV — dynamic relationship of the variable spirituality with the other variables.

Despite its high prevalence in health services, there is still a deficiency in care standardization, which raises difficulties in acute coronary syndrome diagnosis and delay in treatment. The objective wasto assess the efficiency of professional training of nursing teams in Emergency Care Units on the use of a flowchart to care for patients with chest pain. Methods and Findings: This educational intervention study was conducted with 25 nursing team professionals. It has been developed in four steps: Step 1 referred to prior application of the validated research instrument. Step 2 comprised training to use the flowchart with an expository lesson on care of patients with chest pain and guidance regarding the flowchart to be implemented. Step 3 reapplied the validated instrument after class. Step 4 reapplied the instrument after 2 months of training for flowchart implementation. When comparing the results of the instrument applied to nursing team professionals, post-training and follow-up performance surpassed that of pre-training. It was observed that professionals with less than five years of experience showed better performance. This study had as limitation the small sample of health professionals participating in the offered training.

Most patients with the disease are immunocompetent and present themselves with a poorly controlled asthma, secretive cough and recurrent pneumonia. It’s curiously sensible to glucocorticoids, so early diagnosis and treatment may prevent bronchiectasis; otherwise, if it isn’t recognized soon, may lead to ending stage pulmonary fibrosis. First described by Hinson in 1952, even after almost seven decades, it’s still hardly recognized and treated. \u0000Methods and Findings: A case report was performed through clinical follow up of a patient evaluated in a Brazilian hospital diagnosed with ABPA after four years of poorly controlled asthma after even being in ICU and mechanic ventilation support. The patient presented eosinophilia high serum IgE, central bronchiectasis and positive prick test for Aspergillus fumigatus. There was also performed a integrative research of all the studies published in Brazil since the first case report in 1989. There were researched the platforms PubMed, BVS (that covers MedLine and LILACS bases), Scielo, Cochrane, JAMA, NEJM and LANCET using the descriptors “allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis” and “Brazil”. There was found 17 articles about ABPA, 10 meeting the inclusion criteria. Of those, only 4 covered clinical and epidemiological features of ABPA in asthmatic patients. \u0000Conclusions: There are very few studies on ABPA in Brazil in the last 30 years. More research in the country is needed to make this diagnostic possibility part of severe asthma differential and lead the patients to earlier diagnosis.","PeriodicalId":73409,"journal":{"name":"International archives of medicine","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-02-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47056434","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It was then sought to identify the following: the specificity of guarantees of human rights and fundamental freedoms for individuals with disabilities, in line with the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities; the definition of disability and individuals with disability; what criteria are applied, i.e. whether a specific table, the International Classification of Functioning (ICF) or the International Classification of Diseases (ICD) is used;and whether the disability is assessed in a biomedical or biopsychosocial manner, i.e.whether this is done solely by a doctor or is a multiprofessional assessment, and whether, if done by a doctor, there is any support through psychological or social worker evaluation when necessary.
