Abstract(s)
A pessoa com doença oncológica pode vivenciar sintomas tais como dor,
ansiedade, fadiga e distress que comprometem o seu estado de conforto. A
massagem terapĂȘutica surge na literatura como uma intervenção que pode ser
utilizada pelos enfermeiros no alĂvio de sintomas e na melhoria do conforto
destes doentes. Este relatĂłrio insere-se no no Ăąmbito do 12Âș Curso de Mestrado
em Enfermagem na ĂĄrea de Especialização em Enfermagem MĂ©dico-CirĂșrgica, na
veretente oncolĂłgica. Descreve o percurso de estĂĄgio desenvolvido, analisando
de forma crĂtica e reflexiva o contributo das aprendizagens na aquisição de
competĂȘncias de enfermeiro especialista. Este trabalho foi desenvolvido segundo
a metodologia de projeto centrando-se na necessidade de dar visibilidade Ă s
intervençÔes não farmacológicas implementadas pelos enfermeiros na
promoção do conforto da pessoa com doença oncológica. Foram mobilizados os
conhecimentos adquiridos em cada contexto de estĂĄgio e os contributos de uma
revisĂŁo scoping que permitiram implementar um programa de massagem
terapĂȘutica com o objetivo de avaliar a eficĂĄcia da massagem na promoção do
conforto da pessoa com doença oncológia. Após a massagem verificou-se um
alĂvio dos sisntomas reportados pelos participantes e o conforto foi melhorado. A
implementação deste projeto deu visibiliadde ao conforto como um resultado
sensĂvel aos cuidados de enfermagem, contribuindo para a melhoria da qualidade
dos cuidados prestados à pessoa com doença oncológia numa Unidade de
Hospital de Dia.
Oncology patients often report pain, anxiety, fatigue and distress, as key symptoms contributing to an overall feeling of discomfort. Based on published literature, massage is a drug-free intervention performed by nurses, that can be used to relieve patientâs symptoms and improve overall wel-being. In this MasterÂŽs thesis, written for the 12th program for the Masters of Science in Medical-Surgical Nursing in Oncology, I have explored how massage can contribute to the comfort of oncology patients. This work was developed according to the project methodology, focusing on the need to give visibility to the non-pharmacological interventions implemented by nurses in promoting the comfort of oncology patients. Internships were carried out to acquire skills as a specialist nurse. The knowledge and the contributions of multiple internships allowed the implementation of a therapeutic massage program in a Day Hospital Unit. After a critical reflection on this subject, we conclude that the use of massage therapy results in the relief of patient-reported symptoms and in the improvement in overall comfort. This project promotes the idea that massage therapy performed in Day Hospital Units contributes to the improvement of quality of care provided by nurses to oncology patients.
