Abstract(s)
No âmbito do 1º Curso de Mestrado em Enfermagem de Reabilitação da Escola Superior de Enfermagem de São José de Cluny, elaborou-se a dissertação de mestrado “A dor e a qualidade de vida do Enfermeiro de Reabilitação”. A dor é, atualmente, um problema para inúmeras pessoas em todo o mundo, podendo mesmo ser considerado um problema de saúde pública. Problema que afeta a qualidade de vida, o dia-a-dia da população portuguesa, e como consequência os enfermeiros de reabilitação.
Tendo como objetivos avaliar a presença e os níveis de dor dos Enfermeiros Especialistas em Enfermagem de Reabilitação, avaliar a qualidade de vida do EEER, e verificar se a qualidade de vida está relacionada com a presença de dor, desenvolveu-se um estudo de natureza quantitativa, descritivo e transversal. O instrumento de colheita de dados utilizado foi um questionário, o qual incluiu, questões relativas às características sociodemográficas, a escala numérica da dor e o instrumento genérico para avaliação da qualidade de vida - Medical Outcomes ShortForm Health Survey (SF - 36).
A amostra foi de 114 enfermeiros especialistas em enfermagem de reabilitação, 61,4% do género feminino, maioritariamente casados ou em união de fato, dos quais 18,4% referem dor ligeira, 15,7% dor moderada e 3,7 % dor intensa.
Evidenciou-se que a qualidade de vida do enfermeiro especialista em enfermagem de reabilitação diminui com a presença de dor.
Porque a presença de dor nos enfermeiros de reabilitação é uma realidade e porque a evidência revela que a presença de dor afeta a qualidade de vida destes enfermeiros e, eventualmente a qualidade dos cuidados prestados, sugerimos que sejam reforçadas as condições do exercício profissional e que se continue a investigar nesta área, de modo a que compreendido melhor este fenómeno se possam implementar medidas nos vários âmbitos de atuação dos enfermeiros de reabilitação.
As part of the 1st Master's Degree in Rehabilitation Nursing at the School of Nursing of São José de Cluny, the master's thesis "The pain and quality of life of rehabilitation nurses" was elaborated. Pain is currently a problem for countless people around the world and can even be considered a public health problem. A problem that affects the quality of life, the day-to-day life of the Portuguese population, and as a consequence rehabilitation nurses. With the objectives of evaluating the presence and pain levels of Nurses Specialists in Rehabilitation Nursing, assess the quality of life of the EEER, and verify that quality of life is related to the presence of pain, a quantitative, descriptive and cross-sectional study was developed. The data collection instrument used was a questionnaire, which included questions related to socio-demographic characteristics, the numerical scale of pain and the generic instrument for assessing quality of life - Medical Outcomes ShortForm Health Survey (SF - 36). The sample consisted of 114 nurses who specialize in rehabilitation nursing, 61.4% female, mostly married or in fact union, of which 18.4% reported mild pain, 15.7% moderate pain and 3.7% severe pain. It was evidenced that the quality of life of the nurse specialized in rehabilitation nursing decreases with the presence of pain. Because the presence of pain in rehabilitation nurses is a reality and because the evidence reveals that the presence of pain affects the quality of life of these nurses and, where appropriate, the quality of care provided, we suggest that the conditions for professional practice be strengthened and that further investigation scans be carried out in this area, so that this phenomenon is better understood, measures can be implemented in the various areas of action of rehabilitation nurses.
