OBJECTIVES: As patients recovering from the novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) present with physical, respiratory, cognitive, nutritional, and swallowing-related impairments and mental health complications, their rehabilitation needs are complex. This study aimed to describe the demographic, clinical, and functional status after the discharge of COVID-19 survivors who underwent intensive multidisciplinary inpatient rehabilitation at the Physical and Rehabilitation Medicine Institute of the University of Sao Paulo Medical School General Hospital and Lucy Montoro Rehabilitation Institute. We determined the most important factors related to the length of inpatient rehabilitation treatment and present the functional outcomes. METHODS: This was a retrospective study based on electronic medical records. In addition to the severity of COVID-19 and length of hospital stay for the management of COVID-19 and comorbidities, we collected sociodemographic data including age, sex, height, and weight. Functional assessments were performed using the Functional Independence Measure (FIM); Short Physical Performance Battery; Montreal Cognitive Assessment; Depression, Anxiety and Stress Scale; Revised Impact of Events Scale; bioelectrical impedance; Functional Oral Intake Scale; oropharyngeal dysphagia classification; and nutritional assessment. RESULTS: There was a significant improvement in FIM before and after inpatient rehabilitation treatment (p<0.0001). Muscle strength and walking capacity were significantly improved (p<0.01). The most important factors related to the length of inpatient rehabilitation treatment were improvement in FIM scores (Spearman’s r=0.71) and gain in lean mass (Spearman’s r=0.79). CONCLUSIONS: Rehabilitation of patients after COVID-19 recovery improves their functional status and should be considered in the post-acute phase for selected patients with COVID-19.

RESUMO JUSTIFICATIVA E OBJETIVOS: A osteoartrite do joelho está entre as principais causas de incapacidade crônica e pode levar à depressão, ansiedade e catastrofização, intensificando a percepção da dor. Este estudo teve como objetivo investigar a influência da catastrofização da dor nas atitudes e na percepção da dor e a funcionalidade de indivíduos com osteoartrite do joelho. MÉTODOS: Dezoito pacientes foram avaliados quanto ao peso e à estatura, e completaram a Escala de Pensamentos Catastróficos Sobre a Dor (EPCD), Inventário de Atitudes frente à Dor (IAD), Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) e escala analógica visual (EAV). Os sintomas e a incapacidade foram avaliados pelo Índice de Lequesne, a mobilidade funcional foi avaliada pelo teste Timed Up and Go (TUG). Os limiares de tolerância à dor à pressão (LTDP) foram avaliados por um algômetro digital. RESULTADOS: A média do índice de massa corporal da amostra foi classificado como obesa (32,2±4,3). Quando divididas pela mediana do EPCD, foram observadas diferenças na maioria dos domínios do IAD. Pacientes com pensamentos mais catastróficos demoraram mais para realizar o TUG e apresentaram mais dor, rigidez articular e pior funcionalidade (WOMAC). Apesar da tendência de relatar mais dor (EAV) em pacientes acima do escore mediano do EPCD, não foram observadas diferenças entre os grupos com maior ou menor catastrofização em relação aos LTDP. Foram observadas associações positivas e significantes entre o fator ruminação da EPCD e o WOMAC, bem como entre o fator Desesperança e TUG, Lequesne e WOMAC. CONCLUSÃO: Quanto maior a presença de pensamentos catastróficos, piores as atitudes em relação à dor e funcionalidade física dos pacientes com osteoartrite do joelho.

ABSTRACT BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Knee osteoarthritis is among the leading sources of chronic disability and may lead to depression, anxiety and pain catastrophizing, enhancing perceived pain. This study aimed at investigating the influence of pain catastrophizing on attitudes and perception of pain, and in the functionality of individuals with knee osteoarthritis. METHODS: This observational study involved 18 patients, who were assessed for weight and height, and completed the Pain-related Catastrophizing Thoughts Scale (PCTS), Survey of Pain Attitudes (SPA), Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) and the visual analog scale (VAS). Symptoms and disability were assessed by the Lequesne Index, functional mobility was evaluated by the Timed Up and Go (TUG) test. Pressure pain tolerance thresholds (PPT) were assessed by a digital algometer. RESULTS: Mean body mass index of the sample was classified as obese (32,2±4,3). When split by the median of PCTS, differences were observed in most domains of SPA. Patients with more catastrophic thoughts took longer to perform TUG and presented more pain, joint stiffness and worse functionality (WOMAC). Despite the tendency to report more pain (VAS) in patients above the median score of PCTS, no differences were observed between groups with higher or lower catastrophizing regarding PPT. Positive and significant associations between the Rumination factor of PCTS and WOMAC outcomes were observed, as well as between the Hopelessness factor and TUG, Lequesne and WOMAC. CONCLUSION: The higher the presence of catastrophic thoughts, the worse the attitudes towards pain and the physical functionality of knee osteoarthritis patients.

ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: The World Health Organization (WHO) 2017 Global Conference in Montevideo, Uruguay, was dedicated to promoting successful cases and best practices in fighting and preventing noncommunicable disease (NCDs). The global effort undertaken by WHO aims to reduce road traffic deaths in order to meet goal number 3.4 of the sustainable development goals. OBJECTIVES: To describe two Brazilian road safety prevention programs, presented at the WHO 2017 Global Conference: São Paulo Traffic Safety Movement (Movimento Paulista de Segurança no Trânsito) and Safe Life Program of Brasília (Programa Brasília Vida Segura), along with their governance structures, models and results. DESIGN AND SETTING: This was a descriptive case study conducted in São Paulo and Brasilia from 2015 to 2018. These programs aimed to reduce the number of deaths caused by road accidents to 8.3 deaths per 100,000 inhabitants in São Paulo by 2020 and in Brasília by 2016; and to reduce harmful use of alcohol by 10% by 2020. METHODS: These two initiatives were designed, managed and operated to bring together government and civil society, i.e. industry, academia, non-governmental organizations (NGOs), etc., around the common goal of saving lives. They were collaborative and guided by sharing of best practices, learning and information, thereby making it possible to attain more and better results. Their format enables reproduction in cities across all Brazilian regions. RESULTS: The results attest to the efficacy of the programs implemented in these two cities. In Brasília, the initiative helped reduce the number of traffic-related deaths by 35% (2017). In the same year in the state of São Paulo, 7,600 deaths were avoided. CONCLUSION: Both programs are innovative public policies that deal with health issues caused by the external agents that ultimately account for the rapid increase in days lost to disability. Prevention of external causes of deaths and injuries, such as traffic violence, strongly correlates with changes in habits and actions, especially excessive consumption of alcohol, and with NCDs in Brazil.

ABSTRACT Objective: To cross-culturally adapt and check for the reliability and validity of the neurogenic bladder symptom score questionnaire to Brazilian Portuguese, in patients with spinal cord injury and multiple sclerosis. Materials and Methods: The questionnaire was culturally adapted according to international guidelines. The Brazilian version was applied in patients diagnosed with neurogenic bladder due to spinal cord injury or multiple sclerosis, twice in a range of 7 to 14 days. Psychometric properties were tested such as content validity, construct validity, internal consistency, and test-retest reliability. Results: Sixty-eight patients participated in the study. Good internal consistency of the Portuguese version was observed, with Cronbach α of 0.81. The test-retest reliability was also high, with an Intraclass Correlation Coefficient of 0.86 [0.76 - 0.92] (p<0.0001). In the construct validity, the Pearson Correlation revealed a moderate correlation between the Portuguese version of the NBSS and the Qualiveen-SF questionnaire (r = 0.66 [0.40-0.82]; p <0.0001). Conclusions: The process of cross-cultural adaptation and validation of the NBSS questionnaire for the Brazilian Portuguese in patients with neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction was concluded.

RESUMO Objetivo Avaliar a influência do peso corporal na capacidade funcional e na dor de adultos e idosos com osteoartrite de joelho. Métodos A amostra foi constituída por 107 pacientes adultos e idosos com osteoartrite do joelho, divididos em dois grupos (peso/adiposidade adequados e peso/adiposidade em excesso), de acordo com o índice de massa corporal e a porcentagem de adiposidade corporal, e avaliados por bioimpedância elétrica. Os sujeitos foram avaliados quanto à mobilidade funcional (Timed Up and Go), dor, rigidez e função (Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index − WOMAC), intensidade da dor (Escala Visual Analógica - EVA) e limiar de limiar de dor à pressão (algometria nos músculos vasto medial e vasto lateral). Os dados foram analisados pelo Statistical Package of the Social Sciences, versão 22 para Windows. As comparações entre os grupos foram feitas por meio do teste t de Student, com nível de significância estabelecido em 5%. Resultados Houve predomínio de mulheres na amostra (81,3%), com média de idade de 61,8±10,1 anos. Ao dividir a amostra por índice de massa corporal e adiposidade, 89,7% apresentaram peso/adiposidade em excesso, e 59,8% eram obesos. Não houve diferença entre os grupos quanto a idade, intensidade da dor, limiar de dor à pressão, mobilidade funcional, rigidez e função. Entretanto, a dor (WOMAC) foi maior (p=0,05) no grupo de pacientes com excesso de peso ou adiposidade, e a percepção da dor pela EVA foi pior no grupo de pacientes obesos (p=0,05). Conclusão O peso em excesso teve impacto negativo em pacientes com osteoartrite, aumentando a dor avaliada pelo WOMAC ou pela EVA, embora não tenham sido observadas diferenças na funcionalidade e na tolerância à dor sob pressão.

ABSTRACT Objective To assess the influence of the body weight in functional capacity and pain of adult and elderly individuals with knee osteoarthritis. Methods The sample consisted of 107 adult and elderly patients with knee osteoarthritis divided into two groups (adequate weight/adiposity and excessive weight/adiposity) according to body mass index and percent of body fat mass, assessed by electric bioimpedance. Subjects were evaluated for functional mobility (Timed Up and Go Test), pain, stiffness and function (Western Ontario and MacMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index − WOMAC), pain intensity (Visual Analogue Scale − VAS) and pressure pain tolerance threshold (algometry in vastus medialis and vastus lateralis muscles). Data were analyzed with Statistical Package of the Social Sciences, version 22 for Windows. Comparisons between groups were made through Student’s t test, with significance level set at 5%. Results There was predominance of females in the sample (81.3%), and mean age was 61.8±10.1 years. When dividing the sample by both body mass index and adiposity, 89.7% of them had weight/adiposity excess, and 59.8% were obese. There was no difference between groups regarding age, pain intensity, pressure pain tolerance threshold, functional mobility, stiffness and function. However, pain (WOMAC) was higher (p=0.05) in the group of patients with weight or adiposity excess, and pain perception according to VAS was worse in the group of obese patients (p=0.05). Conclusion Excessive weight had negative impact in patients with osteoarthritis, increasing pain assessed by WOMAC or VAS, although no differences were observed in functionality and pressure pain tolerance.

OBJETIVO: apresentar e discutir em termos conceituais e metodológicos o desenvolvimento da humanização das práticas de saúde enquanto política institucional, ou conjunto de diretrizes norteadoras de ações para uma cultura institucional de valores humanísticos, em um serviço-escola do SUS. MÉTODO: na modalidade de estudo de caso, o Complexo "Hospital das Clínicas da Faculdade de Medicina da Universidade de São Paulo" apresentou-se como objeto de estudo por ser uma organização pública de saúde referência de ensino, pesquisa e assistência. Fez-se levantamento documental relativo à humanização no período 2005 a 2012, e procedeu-se à análise descritiva de cenários e processos, assim como análise interpretativa à luz das referências teóricas adotadas. RESULTADOS: para desenvolver a humanização no Complexo, estruturou-se uma rede colaborativa constituída por coordenação e 16 grupos do Complexo. Entre as várias ações de construção da Rede, destacou-se o curso de capacitação de coordenadores para a metodologia da humanização que consiste em: por meio de ferramentas e técnicas de avaliação organizacional e de planejamento, identificar situações críticas nas interações com usuários, colaboradores ou equipes, definir ações junto às áreas-problema, e monitorar tais ações com indicadores. Os trabalhos articulados às diretrizes da Rede, em 2010, somavam 120 e em 2012, 411 ações. O modelo da Rede Humaniza FMUSPHC apresenta-se como estratégia de gestão em humanização na área da Saúde que permite ultrapassar o estado de ações pontuais na vida institucional por adotar uma visão sistêmica e organizada, tecnicamente amparada para a implantação de política que almeja desenvolver a cultura da humanização.

OBJECTIVE: to show and discuss, in conceptual and methodological terms, the development of the humanization of health practices as institutional policy (guidelines for actions that promoves institutional culture based on humanistic values). METHOD: we defined the "Hospital das Clinicas, School of Medicine, São Paulo University " as a case for being a public institution of reference in teaching, research and assistance in health. We did documentary survey on the humanization since 2005 until 2012, and descriptive analysis of scenarios and processes involved in this case, as well as interpretive analysis based on theoretical references adopted. RESULTS: to developing the humanization in the Complex, they structured a collaborative network consisting of 16 groups and coordination. Among the various actions of building the network, the highlight was the training course for coordinators to the methodology of humanization, which consists in: by tools and techniques of organizational assessment and planning to identify critical situations in interactions with users, employees or teams, so to define actions in the problem areas and to monitor indicators such actions. The projects articulated with Network in 2010 amounted 120, and in 2012, 411 projects. The model of the Network "Humaniza FMUSPHC" is a management strategy of humanization in healthcare that surpasses punctual actions on institutional life, by adopting a systemic and organized vision technically supported to implement policy that aims the humanization culture.

INTRODUÇÃO: O governo brasileiro atualmente credencia cerca de 140 centros especializados para adaptações de aparelhos de amplificação sonora individual via SUS. Adaptações à distância através da internet podem permitir maior eficiência na prestação deste serviço e com maiores chances de aceitação por parte do paciente do SUS. OBJETIVOS: Descrever o caso de adaptação à distância realizado entre duas cidades, com revisão da literatura. MÉTODO: Equipamentos de informática e de tecnologia da informação, programador universal, aparelhos de amplificação sonora individual. ESTUDO DE CASO: Uma fonoaudióloga lotada num centro especializado introduziu a um centro remoto (distância de 200 km) um novo aparelho de amplificação sonora individual e seu programa de adaptação. O centro remoto assistiu a adaptação de dois pacientes em sua clínica, realizando voluntariamente a adaptação do terceiro paciente. Todo o procedimento foi realizado através da internet, contando com recursos de áudio e vídeo em todos os procedimentos. RESULTADOS: Três pacientes foram adaptados à distância. Três fonoaudiólogas receberam treinamento à distância de como adaptar aparelhos auditivos. CONCLUSÃO: Foi possível adaptar AASI à distância, além de prover treinamento e habilitar um centro remoto na adaptação de um novo aparelho de amplificação sonora individual e de seu programa de adaptação. Tal procedimento pode ser útil ao governo na condução de políticas públicas da saúde auditiva.

INTRODUCTION: Currently, the Brazilian government has certificated nearly 140 specialized centers in hearing aid fittings through the Brazilian National Health System (SUS). Remote fitting through the Internet can allow a broader and more efficient coverage with a higher likelihood of success for patients covered by the SUS, as they can receive fittings from their own homes instead of going to the few and distant specialized centers. AIM: To describe a case of remote fitting between 2 cities, with revision of the literature. METHOD: Computer gears, a universal interface, and hearing aids were used. Case study: An audiologist located in a specialized center introduced a new hearing aid and its fitting procedure to a remote center (200 km away). The specialized center helped the remote center in fitting a hearing aid in 2 patients, and performed fitting in one of its own patients. The whole process was done through the Internet with audio and video in real time. RESULTS: Three patients were fitted remotely. Three audiologists were remotely trained on how to fit the hearing aids. CONCLUSIONS: Remote fitting of hearing aids is possible through the Internet, as well as further supplying technical training to a remote center about the fitting procedures. Such a technological approach can help the government advance public policies on hearing rehabilitation, as patients can be motivated about maintaining their use of hearing aids with the option to ask for help in the comfort of their own homes.

OBJETIVO: Validar empiricamente o core set da CIF para lombalgia e descrever a funcionalidade de uma amostra de pacientes com lombalgia mecânica crônica inespecífica. MÉTODOS: Vinte e nove pacientes de um centro de reabilitação foram avaliados por meio do core set da CIF para lombalgia e pelo questionário de Roland Morris (QRM) e SF-36. RESULTADOS: Todas as categorias de estruturas do corpo do core set se mostraram comprometidas em ao menos 80% dos pacientes, sendo consideradas validadas. Entre as 19 categorias de Funções do corpo, apenas quatro estavam comprometidas em menos que 80% dos pacientes, sendo consideradas não-validadas, o mesmo foi observado para cinco das 29 de Atividades e participações e cinco das 25 categorias de Fatores ambientais. CONCLUSÕES: As categorias selecionadas para o core set da CIF para lombalgia foram consideradas empiricamente validadas e em conjunto permitiram descrever a multiplicidade de repercussões dessa condição de saúde sobre a funcionalidade das pessoas. O core set da CIF serve para guiar a intervenção terapêutica interdisciplinar.

OBJECTIVE: To empirically validate the ICF Core Set for low back pain, describing functioning, in a sample of chronic unspecific mechanical low back pain patients. METHODS: Twenty-nine patients from a rehabilitation center were assessed with the ICF Core Set for low back pain, Roland Morris Questionnaire (RMQ) and SF-36. RESULTS: All Body structures categories of this ICF Core Set were impaired in at least 80% of the patients, thus they were considered validated. Among the 19 Body functions categories, only four were impaired in less than 80%, thus not-validated, the same was observed in five out of the 29 Activities and participation categories and five of the 25 Environmental factors categories. CONCLUSIONS: The selected categories of the ICF Core Set for low back pain were empirically validated, and together, they allowed the description of functioning of those patients. This ICF Core Set can be used to guide interdisciplinary therapeutic interventions.
