Molaba, Ramatsobane Granny. "Adherence of mentally stable schizophrenic patients to antipsychotic medication at a mental health institution in the Limpopo Province." Thesis, University of Limpopo (Turfloop Campus), 2013. http://hdl.handle.net/10386/1148.
Full textAdherence to antipsychotic medication is very important to patients with schizophrenia. Therefore, if patients with schizophrenia are non-adherent to treatment, they are at risk of relapse and being re-admitted at a mental health care institution in the Limpopo Province. Despite the proven benefits of antipsychotic medications, half of the patients with schizophrenia do not take their prescribed drugs. The researcher has observed the following occurrences during practice: • Lack of adherence to antipsychotic medications of schizophrenic patients results in symptoms not being relieved, poor drug effectiveness and patients developed other serious or costly consequences, such as being violent and damaging property; • High rate of relapse; and • High rate of re-admissions. This research questions has guided the study: • What are the factors affecting adherence of mentally stable schizophrenic patients to antipsychotic medications at a mental health institution in the Limpopo Province? • Do mentally stable schizophrenic patients adhere to prescribed treatment? • Are there any guidelines used to promote adherence to antipsychotic treatment? The aim of the study has been to determine the level of adherence of mentally stable schizophrenic patients to antipsychotic medication at a mental healthcare institution in the Limpopo Province. The objectives of the study have been to describe adherence of mentally stable schizophrenic patients to antipsychotic medication at a mental health institution in the Limpopo Province. It implies that participants have been given the opportunity to describe their experience while on medication. vi Their responses have led to the development of guidelines to promote adherence of mentally stable schizophrenic patients to antipsychotic medication. The study site has been the Thabamoopo Mental Healthcare Institution in the Capricorn District of the Limpopo Province. A descriptive, exploratory and contextual qualitative research design has been used in this study. The population has consisted of all mentally stable schizophrenic patients and all the carers of such patients. Non-probability purposive sampling has been used to select participants in this study. The researcher has used a semi- structured interview with two schedule guides for the patient and carers/relatives, which have specified the issues and questions covered. It has assisted the researcher with gathering information about the problem studied (De Vos et al. 2005).A total of twenty (n = 20) participants, consisting of fourteen (n = 14) mentally stable schizophrenic patients and six (n = 6) carers/relatives has been included voluntarily in the semi-structured interview sessions. The steps of data analysis as described by Tesch (1990) in Cresswell (1994) have been followed in this study. The findings of this study reveal a central storyline which indicates that participants share the same point of view in connection with aspects of adherence to antipsychotic treatment and also knowledge about the causes of mental illness and its prognosis. The following four themes and their sub-themes have emerged during data analysis: Theme 1: Participants share the same point of view related to aspects of adherence to antipsychotic treatment; Theme 2: Knowledge related to mental illness; Theme 3: Health seeking behaviours of mentally ill patients; and Theme 4: Experiences of relatives caring for mentally stable patients on treatment. Guidelines and recommendations based on the findings of this study are described in Chapter 4. The criteria for establishing the trustworthiness of qualitative data maintained in this study have been: Credibility, dependability, confirmability and transferability. The following ethical principles have been adhered to: The principle of beneficence, justice, the principle of human respect and dignity, permission to conduct the study, informed consent and confidentiality, privacy and anonymity.

Full textResearch reported that it is very challenging for mental health care users to quit smoking and the risk of relapsing after quitting is high. However, tobacco dependence treatment is possible and potentially lifesaving for people. The delivery of tobacco dependence treatment by nurses is influenced by a variety of factors, including lack of knowledge and skills, limited professional leadership, and smoking within the profession. There is a strong link between mental illness and smoking-related diseases, including cancer, respiratory diseases and heart diseases that are linked with depression. There is a high incidence of cancer in people with bipolar mood disorder and schizophrenia due to smoking. In spite of this, smoking is regarded as part of the culture of psychiatric institutions and tobacco is seen as “necessary self- medication for the mentally ill”.

Full textThe mental health care environment is a stressful environment because of the environment, perceived unpreparedness of students and the emotional demands placed on the students which are inherent in the nature of the work. The use of the self as a therapeutic tool also presents challenges for students. Whilst researchers have identified supportive interventions and strategies to address students support needs in mental health care settings, these interventions/strategies focus on meeting clinical learning objectives with the assumption that if the student learning needs are met, they will feel emotionally supported. Literature and experience indicates that it is imperative that in this field of study, students should be prepared to cope emotionally with the demands of mental health work. The aim of this research was to develop a model of emotional support for student nurses working in mental health care settings. A theory-generating design based on a qualitative, explorative and descriptive research approach was used to achieve the aim of the study. Purposive sampling was employed to select participants namely: students, educators and clinical staff who met the eligibility criteria. A sample of 40 students, nine educators and nine clinical staff who worked in the four psychiatric hospitals and community mental health clinics in the Western Cape participated in the study. Data collection was by means of focus group interviews (students) and indepth individual interviews (educators and clinical staff). Data was analysed by means of Tesch’s method of content analysis. The model was developed by means of the four steps of the theory generation process. Step one was concept development which consisted of two sub-steps namely concept identification and concept definition. A total of 22 concepts were identified which was further synthesised into six main concepts. The main concepts which were used to develop the model were: positive self-concept; positive work environment; academic and professional development; effective communication; formal and informal supportive interventions and collaboration between the Higher Education Institution and the mental health care setting. Step two of the theory generating process was model development. These main concepts were placed in relation with each other which formed an emotional support model for students working in mental health care settings. Step three was model description. The model was described using the three phases of interpersonal communication namely orientation phase, working phase and the termination phase. A visual application of the model which depicts the main concepts, the process and the context was shown. Step four dealt with the development of the guidelines for the implementation of the emotional support model. A critical reflection of the model was done using five criteria for model evaluation according to Chinn & Kramer. Trustworthiness of the data was ensured by means of applying Guba’ model of truth value, applicability, consistency and neutrality. Reflexivity was used by the researcher to further enhance trustworthiness. Permission to conduct the study was obtained from the relevant authorities. The ethical principles of respect for human dignity, beneficence and justice were applied throughout the study. Limitations were identified and ecommendations for nursing practice, education concluded the study.

Full textThis thesis intends to study the pioneering approach of the psychiatrist/pedagogue G. Daumézon (1912-1979), concerning the relationships between both caring and education in psychiatric institutions, marked by the emergence and the development of institutional psychotherapy and pedagogy. The general hypothesis is that the use of a comprehensive and reflective approach of this singular work will enable underlining the pertinence and the importance of its contribution in accordance with educational sciences.Both through a sociohistorical, documentary and archival study of G. Daumézon’s work, and a pluralist and cross-disciplinary analysis, completed with researching interviews, it is shown how the asylum, later on the psychiatric hospital, has been questioned by education, pedagogy and training.In the end, it is underlined that the empirical and reflective legacy might be nowadays a contributory recourse to avoid development and standardization of terms and conditions of psychiatric care of mental illness

The aim of this study is to analyze the influence of the management model on the mental health of the public servants of a higher education institution located in Goiás state. Therefore three specific objectives were defined: i) to identify the perception of the servers on the management of the public HEI studied; Ii) to identify the presence of psychological suffering and the conditions of affection in the servers; and iii) to confirm the strategies of facing the IES management model. The literary base was the State reform and the psychodynamics of work (PDT), which deals with the worker´s health. The State reform refers to changes that has taken place in HEIs through the University Restructuring and Expansion Program (REUNI), in 2007, and originated from the state reformist movement in the 1970s, known as the New Public Administration. New Public Management (NPM), which emerged in response to the Welfare State crisis or “Social welfare”, proposing the reduction of the public machine, spreading the managerial management in state bodies, already consolidated in private companies. It is a neoliberal postmodern ideological reform, guided by the Toyotista sayings of flexible and lean production, which have created a growing wave of precarious labor, underemployment and world unemployment. The second theoretical support of this research was given by the “Dejours school”, which analyzes the dynamics between the subject and the company, and how does the experience of pleasure and suffering of the individual react before the incoherence of the work organization. This school also approaches the consequences for the worker when he faces unbeatable suffering at work, when he assumes defensive strategies to preserve the psychic health; And which complications occur when these failures are used excessively by the Individual, causing illness and social pathologies in the workplace. The research designed was qualitative, assuming the phenomenon related to the Subjective Subject. The methodological bias was the Critical Discourse Analysis (ACD), analyzing the sets of the interviewees for the identification of the ideological announcements of neoliberal social culture. The research tool used was the interview with semi-structured questions and the target audience was chosen from statistical data secondary medical licenses of Administrative Technicians and Teachers, electing the Academic Units (UA) of HEI with a higher incidence of medical licenses for Mental Disorder Behavioral (TCM) in 2015. The results pointed out characteristics of managerial management style (control, productivity, individuality). Within this context, the workers feel that pleasure is linked to the nature of the work they perform, but also suffering, when they use psychic defenses for confrontation. It was also identified that there are signs of excessive use of defense or the failure of its use, causing social pathologies in the work environment of the HEI studied. It is suggested that new research should be carried out, approaching other motivators of illness (physics, accidents) of these servers and that there are also studies that propose the implementation of a reintegration process of servers that were removed due to mental disorder in HEI.
O objetivo deste estudo é analisar a influência do modelo de gestão na saúde mental dos servidores de uma dada Instituição de Ensino Superior (IES) pública, situada no estado de Goiás. Para tanto, definiu-se três objetivos específicos, a saber: i) identificar a percepção dos servidores sobre a gestão da IES pública estudada; ii) identificar a existência de sofrimento psíquico e as condições de acometimento nos servidores; e iii) evidenciar as estratégias de enfrentamento frente ao modelo de gestão da IES. A base literária foi a reforma do Estado e a psicodinâmica do trabalho (PDT), que trata da saúde do trabalhador. A reforma do Estado se refere às mudanças ocorridas nas IES através do Programa de Reestruturação e Expansão das Universidades (REUNI), no ano de 2007, e se originou do movimento reformista do Estado na década de 1970, conhecido como a Nova Administração Pública (New Public Management - NPM), surgido em resposta à crise do Welfare State, ou “Estado do bem-estar social”, propondo o enxugamento da máquina pública, difundindo a gestão gerencialista em órgãos públicos, já consolidada em empresas privadas. É uma reforma de fundo ideológico pós-moderno neoliberal, guiado pelos ditos Toyotista da produção flexível e enxuta, que criaram uma onda crescente de precarização do trabalho, subemprego e desemprego mundial. O segundo suporte teórico desta pesquisa foi dado pela escola dejouriana, que analisa a dinâmica existente entre Sujeito/empresa, e como se dá as vivências de prazer-sofrimento do Sujeito diante das incoerências da organização do trabalho (OT). Esta escola também aborda as consequências para o trabalhador quando enfrenta sofrimento insuperável no trabalho, quando adota estratégias de defesa para a preservação da saúde psíquica; e quais complicações ocorrem quando estas falham ou são utilizadas excessivamente pelo Sujeito, ocasionando adoecimento e patologias sociais no ambiente de trabalho. O desenho de pesquisa foi qualitativo, assumindo o fenômeno relacionado ao Sujeito de caráter subjetivo. O viés metodológico foi a Análise Crítica de Discurso (ACD), analisando os enunciados dos entrevistados para a identificação das anunciações ideológicas da cultura social neoliberal. O instrumento de pesquisa utilizado foi a entrevista com perguntas semiestruturadas e o público alvo foi escolhido a partir de dados secundários estatístico de licenças médicas de Técnicos Administrativos e Docentes, elegendo as Unidades Acadêmicas (UA) da IES com maior incidência de licenças médicas por Transtorno Mental Comportamental (TCM) no ano de 2015. Os resultados apontaram características do estilo de gestão gerencialista (controle, produtividade, individualidade). Dentro deste contexto, os trabalhadores sentem prazeres ligados à natureza do trabalho que realizam, mas também sofrimentos, momento em quando se utilizam de defesas psíquicas para o enfrentamento. Também se identificou que existem sinalizações de uso excessivo de defesa ou o fracasso de sua utilização, ocasionando patologias sociais no ambiente de trabalho da IES pesquisada. Sugere-se que ocorram novas pesquisas abordando demais motivadores de adoecimento (física, acidentes) destes servidores e também que haja estudos que proponham a implantação de processo de reintegração de servidores que foram afastados por transtorno mental em IES.

Full textMentally-handicapped adults, like any other human beings, develop amorous sentiments and therefore, are entitled to an emotional, intimate and sexual life.In institution (living space), brain-damaged adults are often dependent on social representations which built them, of those of caregivers who cared them, or still of those of caregivers-loving-accompanying and families which accompanying them.This research tried to target the central cores and peripheral elements of all these social representations, by means of the “free association” and the “emotional cards”, to estimate for all actors, the possible progress regarding acceptance, and consequently accompaniment of intimacy and sexuality about institutionalized mentally-handicapped adults.Brain-damaged adults (acquired handicap) and people with mental disabilities (congenital handicap) were the main protagonists of this research.The results show that according to the type of handicap (acquired or congenital), the caregivers’ posture is almost the same; that of the resident differ themselves slightly; as for that some caregivers-loving-accompanying and families are radically different: people with congenital disabilities do not create an intimate imagination and/or sexual from them, to their mentally-handicapped adult.What perspectives for the implementation of an education for the sexual health for these cerebral disabled people? What sort of companying for privacy and sexual life in institution?

Full textIn Peru, mental health is a highly neglected issue. There is a notable deficit of adequate infrastructure for the propitious and correct restoration of balance in the lives of people suffering from mental illnesses, since there are only three specialized institutions in Lima city, centralizing attention and leaving forgotten populations in which there is also a lot of demand. It seems that mental wellness is not considered as a main topic and mechanism of any type of society that seeks growth in all areas. According to the analysis of the causes, consequences and effects brought for the above mentioned, it is necessary to understand that each population has a different history, social situation and ways of life. Therefore, under the mental health demand statistics in Peru, given by the National Institute of Mental Health "Honorio Delgado Hideyo Noguchi", it was determined that Ayacucho city, in the peruvian highlands, has the population with the highest percentage of people with mental problems, probably caused by the terrorist violence that they suffered between 1980 and 2000. To conclude, the objective of this research is to propose a specialized center named "Regional Institute of Mental Health" in the city of Ayacucho, which through adequate architectural spaces and treatments of modern psychiatry, relate the mental wellness of citizens with the local customs in order to promote economic, social and cultural development in the region.

Full textThis work discusses both the possibilities and limits of the psychoanalytic treatment of childhood psychosis at a mental health institution in which psychoanalysis is not currently used, particularly, the APAE of São Luís. First, it discusses psychoanalysis\'s theory of psychosis, taking into consideration institution\'s features and emphasizing the possibilities for interaction between the field of psychoanalysis and the institutions of treatment. It discusses the types of introduction of psychoanalysis into three example institutions of psychoanalytical treatments. Next, it reviews the \"four discourses\" proposed by Lacan in order to develop and enhance the discussion between psychoanalysis and the institutions. Through the study of a clinical case of child\'s psychosis treated at APAE, it was possible to show the capabilities and limitations of psychoanalytical treatment. It finds that some maneuvers are possible, in one hand, in order to block The Other, and, in the other hand, to change the previous discourse through the analyst\'s discourse, even though those modifications don\'t change the institution\'s discourse. Finally, it points out limits to the treatment of The Other (i.e. psychosis\' treatment) when the APAE\'s current structures don\'t support these maneuvers.

Full textThe purpose of this policy analysis is to critically review the Welfare and Institutions Code§ 369.5, which regulates the authorization of psychotropic medication to treat mental disorders among California's dependent children. While these medications have been proven effective forms of treatment, there is a growing concern about their life threatening side effects.
Research has concluded that children exposed to chronic child abuse and neglect often present with behaviors indicative of trauma. The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders 5th Edition has included criteria for Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (P.T.S.D.) in children. However, the Welfare and Institutions Code§ 369.5 does not mandate psychiatrists and pediatricians to first rule out trauma prior to diagnosing foster children with one or more behavior, mood, or psychotic disorders.
Results support amending child welfare legislation and policies to reflect a shift toward trauma-focused services, thereby reducing the reliance on potentially dangerous pharmaceutical drugs.

Resumo: O município de Campinas constitui-se como referência nas políticas públicas de saúde mental por instaurar arranjos inovadores. Destaca-se a participação de profissionais como psiquiatras, psicólogos e terapeutas ocupacionais compondo equipes de Unidades Básicas de Saúde, seguindo a lógica de apoiadores matriciais em saúde mental. Este modo de organizar o processo de trabalho tem permitido a aproximação dos trabalhadores de saúde com as necessidades em saúde mental dos usuários que se apresentam na Atenção Primária à Saúde (APS), e, avançando no sentido de ampliar a compreensão do cuidado em saúde em geral. É conhecida a existência de fóruns de saúde mental em cada um dos distritos de saúde de Campinas, criados para construir e acompanhar os projetos de assistência em saúde mental que agrega profissionais da área - Centros de Saúde (CS), Centros de Apoio Psicossocial (CAPS) e serviços de referência. Considerando os princípios da Política Pública para a área de saúde mental, esta investigação pretende analisar o papel desses fóruns na formulação do modelo de atenção e implementação das práticas de cuidado ao usuário. Neste estudo foi realizada, no âmbito teórico da Análise Institucional, a denominada 'análise de papel', ou seja, o material empírico da análise constituiu-se de documentos, observações e entrevistas com apoiadores institucionais da saúde mental dos distritos de saúde de Campinas. Pretendeu-se com esta investigação construir informações sistematizadas sobre a forma como certos processos discutidos nestes fóruns repercutem na prática cotidiana dos profissionais, no atendimento ao usuário e na constituição de redes de cuidado
Abstract: Campinas is reference in public policy on mental health by introducing innovative arrangements. Emphasizes the participation of professionals such as psychiatrists, psychologists and occupational therapists composing teams of Basic Health Units, following the logic of supporter's matrix in mental health. This way of organizing the work process leads to the approximation of health workers with mental health needs of the users of the Primary Health Care and moving towards a broader understanding of health care in general. It is known that there are mental health's forums in each health district of Campinas created to construct and follow mental health's projects that is composed by professionals of Health Centers, Centers for Psychosocial Support and reference services. Considering the principles of Public Policy for the area of mental health, this research aims to examine the role of these forums in the formulation of the model care and the implementation of healthcare practices to the user. This study was performed in theorical field of Institutional Analysis, by the named 'role analysis', where the empirical analysis consists of documents, observations and interviews with mental health's institutional supporters of health districts of Campinas. This research was intended to build systematic information on how certain processes discussed in these forums reverberates in professional's daily practices, in customer service and networking care

Full textAggressive and violent behaviour in inpatient mental health facilities is found worldwide and is a frequent and serious clinical and nursing care problem. Despite the importance of international research findings and recommendations, it appears that patients perceptions of the possible contributing factors toward aggressive and violent behaviour in mental health facilities is an area of enquiry that has not been widely explored in South Africa in general, or in the Western Cape, in particular. It is against this background that this study endeavoured to investigate the external and situational contributing to patients aggressive and violent behaviour in mental health facilities in Cape Town, as seen from patients perspectives.

Full textWith the advent of the Psychiatric Reform and the enactment of Law 10.216 - 12 establishing a new vision for the treatment of people with mental illness, the implementation of Psychosocial and Therapeutic Residences Care Centers have been imposed as support for the new model of care for these patients. Through Satisfaction Assessment Scales Brazilian was aimed in this study to evaluate the degree of satisfaction of residents and staff of these homes, to reflect whether such dwellings or not brought benefits proposed by the Law. It was found that only 1.9% of the professionals they said very dissatisfied with the service, the majority, 62.7%, are satisfied with the work they do. With regard to residents, some data draw attention, such as 44.4% feel respected by professionals, 66.7% feel that professionals understand well your problems. After analyzing the verbal material collected in interviews of professionals and residents, it was possible to understand the dissatisfaction of professionals as to salary issues and incentives for training, and realize how much the occupant is received by the service.
Com o advento da Reforma Psiquiátrica e a promulgação da Lei 10.216-12 que instituiu uma nova concepção para o tratamento de pessoas com doenças mentais, a implantação dos Centros de Atenção Psicossocial e Residências Terapêuticas se impuseram como respaldo para o novo modelo de atendimento a estes pacientes. Por meio de Escalas Brasileiras de Avaliação da Satisfação objetivou-se neste estudo avaliar o grau de satisfação de moradores e funcionários dessas residências, para refletir se tais moradias trouxeram ou não benefícios propostos pela Lei. Foi constatado que apenas 1,9% dos profissionais se disseram muito insatisfeitos com o serviço, a maioria, 62,7%, estão satisfeitos com o trabalho que realizam. Com relação aos residentes, alguns dados chamam a atenção, tais como 44,4% se sentem respeitados pelos profissionais, 66,7% sentem que os profissionais compreendem muito bem seus problemas. Após analisar o material verbal coletado nas entrevistas dos profissionais e dos moradores, foi possível compreender as insatisfações dos profissionais quanto a questões salariais e incentivos à qualificação, além de perceber o quanto o morador é acolhido pelo serviço.

A depressão pós-parto (DPP) é uma das principais complicações do puerpério e representa um importante problema de Saúde Pública. Estimativas gerais sobre a magnitude da DPP sugerem uma prevalência entre 10 e 15%. Porém, essa parece ser a realidade de países desenvolvidos, e, em condições menos favoráveis, esses números podem ser significativamente maiores. No que tange às suas consequências, a DPP traz prejuízo não só para a mãe, mas também para o desenvolvimento cognitivo e emocional dos seus filhos, assim como para a relação com seu marido e familiares. O objetivo desse estudo foi estimar a prevalência da DPP nas mulheres cujo parto ocorreu no Instituto Fernandes Figueira – FIOCRUZ. Entre fevereiro e julho de 2011, 456 puérperas foram entrevistadas por volta de 6 a 8 semanas pós-parto durante sua consulta no Ambulatório de Pós-Natal. Dentre essas, 65% (n=336-IC95% 71,4-79,4) compareceram à primeira data marcada para sua consulta, 18% (n=94-IC95% 12,6-19,3) foram entrevistadas após busca ativa e novo agendamento de consulta, e 5% (n=26-IC95% 3,3-7,5) foram entrevistadas por telefone. A DPP foi investigada através da Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS), sendo consideradas deprimidas aquelas que apresentaram escores maiores que onze. As informações sobre o histórico obstétrico e desfechos perinatais como anomalias congênitas, parto prematuro, crescimento intrauterino restrito e mortalidade perinatal foram pesquisadas no prontuário materno, enquanto as características socioeconômicas e demográficas foram avaliadas através de perguntas pré-codificadas. Ainda, instrumentos específicos foram utilizados para investigar antecedentes de abuso sexual, violência entre parceiros íntimos e abuso de álcool e drogas pelo casal. A prevalência geral da DPP nessa pesquisa foi de 24,8%. Contudo, a prevalência da DPP foi significativamente mais alta em alguns subgrupos, especialmente puérperas que compareceram ao Ambulatório de Pós-Natal após busca ativa e remarcação da sua consulta, aquelas com nenhum filho vivo ou com três ou mais filhos, mulheres com filhos apresentando anomalias congênitas na gestação índice, fumantes, na presença de consumo excessivo de álcool pelo casal, puérperas com antecedente de abuso sexual e aquelas vítimas de violência psicológica ou física pelos parceiros íntimos durante a gestação. A elevada prevalência da DPP no Ambulatório de Pós-natal do IFF detectada neste estudo mostra a importância do seu rastreio rotineiro na consulta pós-parto, principalmente nos subgrupos onde foi encontrado maior risco.Esse estudo destaca a importância da busca ativa das puérperas que faltam à consulta pós-natal, pois essas estão mais propensas a apresentarem o agravo. Uma rotina assistencial integrada e multidisciplinar à saúde materno-infantil ao longo do ciclo grávido –puerperal, favorecendo ações de prevenção, diagnóstico precoce e tratamento adequado. deve contemplar a saúde mental da mulher.
Postpartum depression (PPD) is one of the most common complications of childbearing and represents a considerable Public Health problem. It is estimated that the prevalence of postpartum depression varies between 10 and 15%. This prevalence seems to be the reality in developed countries, but, in unfavorable conditions, numbers can be significantly higher. The PPD not only brings prejudice to the mother, but can also cause impairment to the cognitive and emotional development of her children and to the relationship with her husband and family. The aim of this cross-sectional survey was to estimate the prevalence of postpartum depression (PPD) among women whose labour was assisted in the Fernandes Figueira Institute – FIOCRUZ. Between february and july 2011, 456 women in the postpartum period were interviewed. The interviews were carried out six to eight weeks after childbearing, during the postnatal appointment. Among them, 65% (n=336/CI95% 71,4-79,4) came to the first appointment in the outpatient department, 18% (n=94/CI95% 12,6-19,3) came only after being contacted by telephone to schedule a new appointment and 5% (n=26/CI95% 3,3-7,5) where interviewed by telephone. The PPD was assessed using the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS), and women who scored above the cut-off of eleven were considered depressed. Information about some obstetrics characteristics, such as congenital abnormalities, premature labour, restricted intra-uterine growth and perinatal mortality, were searched from the maternal records, while the social-economic and demographic characteristics were evaluated through pre-codified questions. Moreover, specific instruments were used to search for history of child abuse, intimate partner violence and misuse of alcohol and drugs by the couple. The overall prevalence of DPP estimated in this research was 24,8% Prevalence was significantly higher in certain sub-groups, specially women who came to the postnatal appointment only after being searched by telephone, the ones with no child alive or with more than three children, mothers of children with congenital abnormalities in the last pregnancy, tobacco users, women with alcohol misuse by the couple history of sexual abuse and victims of psychological interpersonal violence or physical interpersonal violence (PIVP). The high prevalence of PPD in the postnatal outpatient department detected in this research outlines the importance of routine screening during the postnatal appointment, specially among the sub-groups in which a greater risk has been observed.. This research highlights the importance of continuous searching for the women who misses their appointment at the Postnatal Ambulatory, because they are prone to developing PPD. During pregnancy and postnatal period, an integrated multi-disciplinar routine assistance promoting prevention, diagnosis and adequate treatment shall attend women’s mental health.

Resumo: O presente trabalho se propôs a investigar a Saúde Mental sob os vários ângulos possíveis no espaço de uma tese. Considerando a inserção técnica e política do autor na área, o trabalho pretendeu abordar a questão nos diferentes níveis vivenciados por ele e pela equipe de profissionais, na qual estava inserido. A fundamentação teórica básica deu-se com a utilização das ideias de Erwing Goffman, ao procurar entender o universo das equipes, especialmente através da obra "A Representação do Eu na Vida Cotidiana", além dos conceitos operacionais e o instrumental teórico-metodológico da Análise Institucional sistematizada por René Lourau. Com relação às políticas públicas foram analisadas algumas diretrizes propostas pelo Ministério da Saúde, pelas Secretarias Estaduais e, principalmente, pela esfera municipal. Tal estratégia não se deu a partir das portarias e/ou leis implantadas, mas sim da forma como estas são colocadas no cotidiano dos profissionais ou sua implantação nos serviços. Ao analisar os relatórios finais das Conferências Nacionais de Saúde Mental focalizado no tema "município de pequeno porte" pode-se assimilar, nos discursos dos atores presentes, o ponto de vista da Sociedade Civil em relação ao tratamento a ser dado aos portadores de transtornos mentais. A pesquisa teve origem numa encomenda feita ao pesquisador pelo gestor de saúde do município de Paraisópolis/MG. Este município, com cerca de 20 mil habitantes, assemelha-se a 79% dos municípios mineiros, que, para implantar um Centro de Atenção Psicossocial à Saúde no seu território, deveria estabelecer uma pactuação com outros municípios, o que não era pretendido pela prefeitura municipal. O caráter da encomenda feita ao autor foi a de assumir a coordenação do matriciamento entre os setores de Saúde Mental e Estratégia Saúde da Família, locais, além da assessoria à gestão de saúde para construção da rede de cuidados aos portadores de transtornos mentais e seus familiares. O objetivo principal do trabalho foi compreender as singularidades dessa proposta nesse município, tendo em vista à consolidação da atenção primária como estratégia de ação do serviço. Dado a relevância desse processo, optou-se por atribuir a essa forma de atuação um formato de pesquisa-intervenção, visando à elaboração de um doutorado em Saúde Coletiva. Para tanto, utilizou-se da Análise Institucional, a partir dos conceitos de instituição, implicação, analisador, transversalidade e restituição. A utilização de dois tipos de diários - o de pesquisa individual e o institucional coletivo - permitiu o resgate do processo de institucionalização da equipe de Saúde Mental, propiciando a apreciação de suas práticas cotidianas, tanto em relação á aspectos intersubjetivos, como à forma de prestar assistência aos usuários. Nesse processo, as implicações da equipe bem como as do autor da tese foram colocadas em análise. Ressalte-se que a leitura crítica dos documentos oficiais disponíveis a respeito da política de Saúde Mental vigente, permitiu o confronto das diretrizes das propostas formais com as práticas vivenciadas pelos profissionais, contribuindo para a compreensão do movimento dialético instituído/instituinte/institucionalização presente, de forma geral, nos serviços de saúde
Abstract: This study aimed to investigate the Mental Health under the various possible angles within a thesis. Considering the technical and political integration of the author in the area, the work aims to address the issue at different levels experienced by him and the team of professionals, which was inserted. The theoretical base was with the use of the ideas of Goffman Erwing, seeking to understand the universe of teams, especially through the work "The Presentation of Self in Everyday Life," in addition to the operational concepts and methodological and theoretical tools of Institutional Analysis systematized by René Lourau. With regard to public policies were analyzed some guidelines proposed by the Ministry of Health, the State Departments, and especially at the municipal level. This strategy did not come from the ordinances and / or laws in place, but the way they are put in everyday or professional services in its implementation. By analyzing the final reports of the National Conference on Mental Health focused on the theme "small city" can assimilate, in the speeches of the actors present, the view of civil society in relation to the treatment to be given to people with mental disorders . The research stemmed from an order made by the researcher to health administrator of the municipality of Paraisópolis / MG. This municipality, with about 20,000 inhabitants, is like 79% of the mining municipalities, which, to deploy a Psychosocial Care Center on Health in its territory, should establish a pact with other municipalities, which was not desired by the city. The character of the order was made to the author to assume the matricial coordination between sectors and Mental Health Family Health Strategy, local, beyond advising the management of health to build the network of care for mental disorders and their families . The main objective of this study was to understand the uniqueness of this proposal in that district, with a view to the consolidation of primary care as an action strategy of the service. Given the relevance of this process, we chose to assign to this form of action a form of intervention research, aiming at the elaboration of a doctorate in Public Health. For this purpose, we used the Institutional Analysis, based on the concepts of institution, implication, analyzer, transversality and restitution. The use of two types of journals - individual and institutional research collective - has allowed the rescue of the institutionalization process of the Mental Health team, providing an appreciation of their daily practices, both in relationship to intersubjective aspects such as how to assist users. In this process, the implications of the team as well as the author of the thesis were placed under review. It should be noted that the critical reading of official documents available regarding the mental health policy in effect, allowed the comparison of the guidelines formal proposals with practices experienced by professionals, contributing to the understanding of the dialectical movement up / instituting / this institutionalization of overall, the health services

Resumo: A supervisão tem se assegurado como um dos principais dispositivos de fortalecimento dos processos de mudanças almejados no modelo de Atenção Psicossocial. Esse dispositivo tem sido utilizado para qualificação dos serviços substitutivos e da rede de Atenção Psicossocial na Reforma Psiquiátrica brasileira, apesar de receber muitas críticas no sentido de apontar seu caráter reprodutor das relações de saber-poder hierarquizadas. Este trabalho buscou analisar a institucionalização da supervisão clínico-institucional no processo da Reforma Psiquiátrica brasileira, tendo como foco a experiência de supervisão no estado do Rio Grande do Norte. Para tanto, o referencial teórico-metodológico escolhido foi o da Análise Institucional, tanto na perspectiva da análise no papel como da socioanálise. A análise no papel foi utilizada para a investigação dos documentos e entrevistas em uma perspectiva sócio-histórica e a socioanálise em sua vertente socioclínica. Para a realização deste estudo, adotei quatro estratégias de pesquisa principais: análise de artigos que apresentavam a inserção da supervisão nas experiências reformistas dos anos 1980 e 1990; análise dos relatórios finais das Conferências Nacionais de Saúde Mental e dos editais de supervisão lançados pelo Ministério da Saúde; e intervenção desenvolvida durante um ano de supervisão clínico-institucional na rede de Atenção Psicossocial em um município do interior do Nordeste. O processo de intervenção desenvolvido fez parte de um desses projetos financiados, com edital lançado, e desenvolveu-se em doze encontros mensais com trabalhadores da rede de saúde e dos dispositivos intersetoriais. Na análise das experiências, percebemos que a supervisão nos princípios da Atenção Psicossocial sofreu mudanças tensionadas principalmente pelas transformações na constituição das equipes, da gestão, da rede e no cuidado comunitário. Na análise no papel dos relatórios da terceira e da quarta Conferência Nacional de Saúde Mental e dos editais do Ministério da Saúde existiram encomendas muito amplas relacionadas à supervisão, tais como a política de recursos humanos, de funcionamento de rede, de qualificação e de construção de Projetos Terapêuticos Singulares, que foram respondidas de maneira ainda insuficiente pelas políticas governamentais. Na intervenção realizada, as principais dificuldades encontradas foram a rotatividade dos profissionais do serviço, múltiplos vínculos de trabalho entre os servidores, mudanças na gestão do serviço e a relação pouco dialogada com a gestão municipal. Como movimento instituinte, assinalamos uma maior reflexão crítica acerca do percurso do profissional de saúde mental para adequação ao contexto da Atenção Psicossocial, ampliação do diálogo e ações interprofissionais, e fortalecimento da parceria entre o gestor municipal e a equipe do Centro de Atenção Psicossocial. Retomar a historicidade de um dispositivo permitiu compreender suas diferentes funções e os efeitos de retorno do instituído e de desconhecimento gerados pela paralisação e burocratização da Reforma Psiquiátrica, e a necessidade de retomar e fortalecer seu processo instituinte
Abstract: Supervision has assured itself as one of the main dispositive of improving the processes of changes desired in the psychosocial care model. This dispositive has been used for qualification of replacement services and from the psychosocial care system in the Brazilian psychiatric reform, despite receiving many criticisms towards pointing its reproductive character of hierarchical knowledge-power. This work aimed at analyzing the institutionalization of institutional clinical-supervision in the process of the Brazilian Psychiatric Reform in the state of Rio Grande do Norte. To this end, the theoretical and methodological support chosen was the institutional analysis, both from the perspective of analysis of the role and social analysis. The analysis of the role was used for investigation on documents and interviews in the sociohistorical perspective and in the social analysis in its social clinical perspective. In order to do this study, I applied four main strategies of research: analysis of articles that presented the insertion of the supervision in the reforming experiences in 1980s an 1990s; analysis of the final reports of the National Conferences on Mental Health and the supervision announcements released by the Ministry of Health; and intervention developed during a year of clinical-institutional supervision in network of psychosocial care in a country city of Brazilian northeast. The intervention process developed was part of one of theses funded projects with announcements released, and developed in twelve monthly meetings with Health system and intersectoral dispositives workers. In the analysis of experiments, we noticed that supervision on the principles of Psychosocial Care suffered changes influenced primarily by the transformation of teams, management, system and community care constitution. In analyzing the role of the reports of the third and fourth National Conferences of Mental Health and the announcements of the Ministry of Health there were many orders widely related to supervision, such as the human resources policy, the operation of the network, construction of qualification and Unique Therapeutic Project that were still inadequately answered by the government policies. In interventions, the main difficulties were the turnovers of service professionals, multiple bonds of work between servers, changes in the management of the service and and the little dialogic relationship with the municipal administration. As establishing movement, we noticed a deeper critical reflection on the course of the mental health professional to fit the context of psychosocial care, expansion of dialogue and joint actions, and strengthening the partnership between the city manager and staff of the Center for Psychosocial Care. Retaking the historicity of a dispositive allowed to understand their different roles and effects of return established and ignorance generated by paralysis and bureaucratization of the Psychiatric Reform, and the need to retake and strengthen their instituting proceedings

Full textIn the present work, we aim to explicit how the discourse of autonomy promotion is established and reproduced by several actors in the mental health field, especially the workers, who utter it most of the time as a way to support their actions. In order to do so, we have analysed how the notion of autonomy is sustained by institutions and how it sharply reaches the users of mental health services, upon whom institutional actions and practices fall. Throughout the research, we have considered that the type of psychoanalysis that interpret an individual as a part of a group consists in the most appropriate theoretical framework to discuss the processes that encompass the theme, as it considers the dimensions of subjectivity, society, groups and institutions. We think it is fundamental to understand how the autonomy of the subject has been shaped since his constitution, which occurs in the relationship with the other and the world, thus defining his intrapsychic and intersubjective reality. Based on René Kaës\'s work and the concept of unconscious alliances, we have discussed the way by which the subject is built, considering the relationship between external and internal worlds inseparable. The alliances play the role of intermediary. In order to understand how the subject enters the world, we stress the importance of the imperative of contracts and pacts, especially the narcissist contract and the denegativo pact, by means of a process of psychic economy that is aimed at guaranteeing each subject possible ways of survival and interactions. By means of these types of unconscious alliances, the subject seeks self-preservation and the perpetuation of the group, the institution and the species. Based on Piera Aulagnier, we have immersed ourselves in the processes of the constitution of the subject, which is determined by the relationship with the mother, the first representative of the world, who presents him his possibilities of representation of the world. So, his possibilities of subjectivation, identity building and action are limited and shaped by all the aspects that the reality, which comes before the subject, gives to him. The aim of this work consists in stimulating a discussion that may bring possibilities of analysis and ruptures as well of the discourses that are established and reproduced in an alienated way. By elaborating the psychic processes that are involved in the institutional framework, it is possible to identify the possibility that each subject who participates in this reality has to overcome this context. Considering that the search for knowledge and innovation is inherent in every subject, we have discussed the process of creation that consists in a tension between the established situation and different scenarios, which may arise when there is a dialectical tie between them, thus overcoming the dilematic state that imposes a stoppage on this relationship. In other words, the question of autonomy gives way to that of creation

Full textThis research aims to study the process of medicalization and pathologizing of education through interviews with psychologists in public health and coordinators of public schools focusing on the intervention of such professionals in the difficulties encountered in the teaching-learning process. Medicalization and pathologizing understood as an ideological process that transforms social problems in diseases of individuals. We work with the north region of the city of São Paulo. Psychologists interviewed worked in Basic Health Units and coordinators in public schools kindergarten, elementary and secondary. The method used was qualitative interviews were conducted in accordance with the recommendations by José Bleger. The analysis uses the theoretical Operational Group, as it formulated by Enrique Pichon-Rivière. The results presented reveal the difficulties faced by professionals in daily work, especially with regard to the structure and dynamics of institutional and academic. Consequently it identifies processes medicalization and pathologizing of education. Points to the need for revision of public policies and better exploitation of theoretical and technical professionals.

Full textThe present thesis examines the work performed by the teachers of the Private Institutions of Higher Education. The objective was to investigate the relationship between workplace conditions and reported health problems, in particular those related to mental health. Specifically: to identify both subjective and objective coping mechanisms for handling the day-to-day difficulties encountered by those workers, and also to describe how the increasing precariousness in the educational system interferes with the job of a university lecturer. The research has as its foundational principles the theoretical methodology of historical dialectical materialism, and the data is collected in the form of recorded interviews. Five interviews were conducted with instructors who have taught at Private Institutions of Higher Education for at least five years. The results demonstrate that the instructors are subjected to precarious and intense work conditions. The type of employment contract and professional instability subject those professionals to destabilizing psychic situations, resulting in a tacit submission to fatiguing activities and rendering them vulnerable to alienation as a result of these conditions. The continued idealization of the activity of an educator also facilitates this alienation, as it enforces a view of the work as a calling and not as a profession. This contradiction, in addition to subjecting workers to physically exhausting conditions, also applies psychological pressure which can cause mental illness. Among the coping mechanisms used by these instructors, particularly salient are the denial of suffering and the banalization of illness. They are subjected to potentially stressful situations of during work, which are reflected in generalized psychosomatic conditions. It is concluded that that manner in which work is organized, the pressure exerted through meeting targets, overwork, the existence of different locations of work, all in an environment of the commercialization of education, serve to demean the function of an educator and creates exhaustion, malaise and illness in these professionals.

Full textThe object of this research is to analyze, using institutional analysis as a reference, the experience of the Clube dos Saberes, ( Club of knowledge ) or CS, the instrument of an institutional intervention in a private psychiatric hospital in the city of São Paulo between the years of 2001 and 2005. The hospital is a two pronged institution, which has a hierarchicalpyramidal organization with characteristics of an asylum. The CS is a network of relationships formed by the exchange of knowledge and experiences between a collective, that organizes democratically and aims for a personal and individual growth as well as the growth of the collective. This instrument is offered to the hospital as a possibility of overcoming a crisis through the inoculation of a new culture of treatment, of new forms of relationship, of new ways of functioning and organization. The research involved, at first, rebuilding the history of this experience through the memory of the participant-researcher, and through written records, later there was the selection of passages of this history that had the quality of analyzer. The analysis showed that although of the CS represented a hope of change and a chance of overcoming the crisis in the hospital, it suffered resistance from the part of the team and it faced several obstacles: a participation of small significance from the staff in the development of the CS; limited or distorted apprehension of the project; low effectiveness of the established partnerships; the persistence and aggravation of the characteristics of the hospital as an asylum; The predominance of the organization in detriment of the clinic and a greater attention to the financial health of the hospital then the health of its agents ( staff and patients ). In conclusion we find that the development of the CS was significantly hindered by the lack of a space for an institutional analysis and its own alienation.

Full textThe Primary Health Care and one of its main strategies, the Family Health Strategy (ESF), are framed as the gateway to the Public Health System (SUS). Thus, most of the incident and prevalent health problems in the population attended should be solved at this level of care, including psychological suffering, and the so-called complaint of nerves. Nerves and nervous denote a complexity that is not always well comprehended by health workers, in such a way that the care to this kind of problem is usually inadequate. In this line of thought, the general objective of this study is to analyze the network of discourses and the care to the psychological suffering, expressed as nerves, in SUS daily Primary Health Care. Besides and more specifically, it aims at identifying the principles and guidelines of the Primary Health Care in mental health; to investigate health workers positioning before psychological suffering and complaints of nerves, and also analyze different actions and practices of care carried out in different Health Units towards complaints like nerves. Institutional Ethnography was the theoreticalmethodological perspective adopted for the work. This approach seeks to understand and analyze the institutional relationships in a particular context considering sociostructural influences and power relations, as well as daily discourses and practices. Based on interviews with health professionals, informal conversations and observations in six Health Units with ESF teams from different sanitary districts in Natal/RN, it was possible to check that the index of complaint of nerves is high. The referral to psychologists and psychiatrists, as well as the prescription of psychotropic drugs appear as the most common intervention at this level of care. In general, the participants complain that they have poor specialized knowledge about the theme of mental health. They face the problem of bad work conditions and the lack of institutional support, which make actions of illnesses prevention and health promotion even more difficult. Besides, there are different ongoing practices such as meetings for hypertensive and aged people, walk, visit, round-table discussions and community therapy. However, not all of these actions are aimed at the care of psychological suffering. It is observed that the Matrix Support, which is a methodological strategy of supervision and follow up forcases of mental health, hasn t been totally implemented in the municipal system, although it is a tool that has been used by psychologists in some Health Units in the city. It was also verified that the health care practices to the problem of nerves strongly depend on the professional s commitment with the PSF guidelines and on mental health policies, in addition to continued support, when available, from other professional who works as matrix supporter

Mais especificamente, identificar os princ?pios e diretrizes da aten??o b?sica em sa?de mental; investigar o posicionamento dos trabalhadores de sa?de diante do sofrimento psicol?gico e das queixas de nervos, e analisar as diferentes a??es e pr?ticas de cuidado realizados nas diferentes Unidades de Sa?de diante de queixas como nervos. A perspectiva te?rico-metodol?gica adotada no trabalho foi a Etnografia Institucional. Essa abordagem busca compreender e analisar as rela??es institucionais em determinado contexto considerando as influ?ncias socioestruturais e as rela??es de poder, bem como as pr?ticas e os discursos cotidianos. Foram realizadas entrevistas com trabalhadores de sa?de, conversas informais e observa??es em seis Unidades de Sa?de com equipes da ESF de diferentes distritos sanit?rios do munic?pio de Natal/RN. Constatou-se o alto ?ndice de queixas de nervos, sendo que o encaminhamento a psic?logos e psiquiatras e a prescri??o de psicotr?picos s?o a forma mais comum de interven??o. Em geral, h? uma falta de conhecimento especializado sobre o tema da sa?de mental, bem como aus?ncia de discuss?es sobre as pol?ticas de sa?de mental. De um lado, as condi??es de trabalho e a falta de apoio institucional dificultam a realiza??o de a??es de preven??o de doen?as e promo??o ? sa?de. Por outro, h? diferentes pr?ticas em andamento tais como reuni?es de hipertensos e idosos, caminhadas, visitas, rodas de conversas e terapia comunit?ria embora nem todas visem o cuidado espec?fico ao sofrimento psicol?gico. O apoio matricial, estrat?gia metodol?gica de supervis?o e acompanhamento de casos de sa?de mental, vem sendo implantado por psic?logos em algumas Unidades de Sa?de do munic?pio, por?m ainda n?o est? totalmente implantado na rede. As pr?ticas de cuidado aos problemas de nervos dependem principalmente do envolvimento do trabalhador com as diretrizes da ESF e das pol?ticas de sa?de mental, al?m do apoio sistem?tico, quando dispon?vel, de outro profissional que funciona como apoiador matricial

Nosso objetivo nesta pesquisa de mestrado foi problematizar, a partir da Análise Institucional, enquanto lugar teórico-metodológico de investigação, as práticas e os discursos dos atores institucionais que trabalham na organização Saúde Mental, tais como se apresentam nos modos de funcionamento institucional de três hospitais psiquiátricos existentes em uma cidade de médio porte localizada no interior do Estado de São Paulo. Realizamos uma série de visitas de observação participante nesses três estabelecimentos, com a utilização de um diário de campo e entrevistas semi-dirigidas com membros da equipe dirigente e com psicólogos que atuam nesses locais, visando captar o plano do discurso institucional e as contradições existentes na organização Saúde Mental. Como mediação e pano de fundo para nossos objetivos, por meio de uma revisão bibliográfica, examinamos o processo histórico que engendrou a atual sociedade disciplinar enquanto um projeto do Estado de normalização social, que possibilitou o aparecimento dos Hospitais Psiquiátricos. Procuramos estudar os discursos e as práticas institucionais presentes nesses locais, bem como detectar quais são seus possíveis efeitos em termos éticos e de produção de subjetividade. A escolha da Análise Institucional como referencial teórico-metodológico, revelou-se muito útil para pensar a organização Saúde Mental, por permitir considerar o campo social, bem como a transversalidade dos momentos instituintes. A Análise Institucional subsidiou a construção analítica dessa investigação e a utilização de seus conceitos nos permitiu, ao estudar o plano latente desses estabelecimentos institucionais, captar as linhas de transformações que podem escapar aos jogos de poder sobrecodificadores praticados no campo da Saúde Mental. O Hospital Psiquiátrico como analisador indica que os atravessamentos de ordem reguladora, de disciplina e de controle costumam superar o projeto oficial dos estabelecimentos da organização Saúde Mental. Detectamos que os problemas dessa organização necessitam serem contextualizados no plano institucional e sócio-político, para não permanecermos em considerações funcionalistas que apenas mascaram a realidade do poder e da política, reduzindo os problemas às questões unicamente de ordem psicológica individuais.
Our objective in this master's research was to problematize, from the Institutional Analysis as a theoretical and methodological place of investigation, the practices and discourses of the institutional actors that work in the Mental Health organization, such as they are presented in the institutional modes of functioning of three psychiatric hospitals existing in a medium-sized city located in the interior of the State of São Paulo. We conducted a series of participant observation visits in these three establishments, using a field diary and semi-directed interviews with members of the management team and with psychologists who work in these places, in order to capture the institutional discourse plan and the contradictions existing in the organization Mental Health. As a mediation and background to our objectives, through a bibliographical review, we examine the historical process that engendered the current disciplinary society as a project of the State of social normalization, which made possible the appearance of the Psychiatric Hospitals. We seek to study the discourses and institutional practices present in these places, as well as to detect their possible effects in ethical terms and the production of subjectivity. The choice of the Institutional Analysis as a theoretical-methodological framework proved to be very useful for thinking about the Mental Health organization, since it allows to consider the social field, as well as the transversality of the instituting moments. The Institutional Analysis subsidized the analytical construction of this investigation and the use of its concepts allowed us, when studying the latent plan of these institutional establishments, to capture the lines of transformations that can escape the overcoding power plays practiced in the field of Mental Health. The Psychiatric Hospital as an analyzer indicates that the crossings of regulatory, discipline and control tend to overcome the official project of the establishments of the organization Mental Health. We have detected that the problems of this organization need to be contextualized in the institutional and socio-political levels, so that we do not remain in functionalist considerations that only mask the reality of power and politics, reducing the problems to the only questions of individual psychological order.
