Abstract(s)
Nas últimas décadas, as forças de segurança têm vindo a apostar na
formação e capacitação dos polícias na área de primeiros socorros, em ambiente civil de
ameaça grave. A formação Tactical Emergency Casualty Care é uma das principais para a
prestação de cuidados pré-hospitalares, em cenários de elevada complexidade e criticidade.
Objetivo: Analisar a perceção do efetivo policial da Polícia de Segurança Pública em
relação à formação TECC e a casuística de ações policiais em que existem vítimas com
hemorragias.
Método: Recorreu-se ao método misto, tendo sido aplicado um inquérito por questionário
aos polícias e alunos do CFOP e do CFA e realizadas entrevistas a polícias. Participaram no
inquérito por questionário 682 polícias e alunos do CFOP e do CFA e nas entrevistas 12
polícias. Efetuou-se análise estatística (descritiva e inferencial) e análise de conteúdo.
Resultados: A maioria dos polícias desconhece a formação TECC (N=583),
independentemente do sexo (χ2(1) = 1,594; p = 0,207; N = 682), tendo esta sido
frequentada por um reduzido número de polícias (N=19). A maioria dos polícias tem
interesse na frequência desta formação (N=439), independentemente do sexo (χ2(3) =
0,875; p = 0,831; N = 682) e categoria profissional (χ2(9) = 11,503; p = 0,243; N = 682).
Conclusões: Os polícias atribuem cada vez maior importância à formação em primeiros
socorros, especialmente para controlo de hemorragias e para intervenção em ambiente civil
de ameaça grave. A maioria dos polícias da PSP tem interesse em frequentar a formação
TECC, atribuindo também grande importância à formação em primeiros socorros para
controlo hemorrágico.
In the last few decades, the law enforcement agencies have been investing in training police officers in the field of first aid in a civilian high-threat setting. Tactical Emergency Casualty Care training is one of the main courses for providing pre-hospital care in very complex and critical environments. Objective: Analyzing the perception of Public Security Police officers about the TECC training and the casuistic of police incidents involving victims with hemorrhages. Method: A mixed method was adopted, with a survey composed by both police officers and CFOP/CFA students and interviews with police officers. 682 police officers and CFOP/CFA trainees took part in the survey and 12 police officers took part in the interviews. Statistical analysis (descriptive and inferential) and content analysis were performed. Results: Most of the police officers are unaware of TECC training (N=583), independently of their gender (χ2(1) = 1.594; p = 0.207; N = 682), and a reduced number of police officers (N=19) have attended such training. Most of the police officers were interested in attending this training (N=439), independently of their gender (χ2(3) = 0.875; p = 0.831; N = 682) and professional career (χ2(9) = 11.503; p = 0.243; N = 682). Conclusions: Police officers are giving increasingly importance to first aid training, specifically for bleeding control and for intervention in a civilian high-threat setting. Most PSP police officers are interested in attending TECC training and consider first aid training for hemorrhage control very important.
