Introdução: Em março de 2020 iniciou-se a pandemia pelo COVID-19, considerada pela Organização Mundial da Saúde (OMS) uma emergência internacional saúde pública, influenciando os países adotarem medidas prevenção como o distanciamento social através quarentenas, diante situação caótica muitas pessoas desenvolvem doenças ansiedade e depressão durante evidenciado tristeza persistente, oscilações humor até pensamentos suicidas. Perante contexto, transtorno pós-traumático (TEPT) pode se...
Objective: To analyze the perception of Primary Health Care (PHC) professionals about process implementation and use Electronic Citizen Record (ECR). Methods: This is an exploratory longitudinal survey study, with PHC from city Parnamirim, Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil, as participants. An adapted questionnaire (Likert) was used for data collection. The obtained were entered tabulated in SPSS 26.0 software analyzed based on descriptive statistics inferential analysis using Pearson's chi-square...
Introdução: O glaucoma é uma das principais causas mundiais de perda irreversível da visão. É doença que causa neuropatia óptica progressiva e associadas a defeitos característicos do campo visual alterações estruturais. Esta cursa com diminuição acuidade consequente declínio na qualidade vida dos pacientes. Com isso, identificação fatores risco em seu estágio inicial o encaminhamento ágil adequado para atendimento especializado essencial um melhor resultado terapêutico prognóstico casos....
RESUMO Objetivo: avaliar a função mastigatória em crianças de acordo com relação cintura-estatura. Métodos: estudo transversal 92 entre 7 e 12 anos, ambos os sexos estudantes escola pública numa cidade situada no Brasil. Os infantes foram divididos nos seguintes grupos: cintura estatura (RCE)>0,5 (N=27) RCE<0.5 (N=65). Foram considerados dados referentes ao sexo idade, avaliaram-se seus parâmetros antropométricos, desempenho mastigatório atividade elétrica dos masseteres sujeitos. Na...
ABSTRACT Purpose: to evaluate masticatory function in children according the waist-to-height ratio. Methods: a cross-sectional study with 92 public school students aged 7 12 years of both sexes from Brazilian city. They were divided into following groups: ratio (WHtR) > 0.5 (N = 27) and WHtR < 65). Researchers considered their data on sex age evaluated anthropometric parameters, performance, electrical activity masseters. Pearson's chi-square test compared categorical variables,...
Abstract Background Integration of preprocedural imaging techniques in ventricular tachycardia (VT) ablation may improve the identification arrhythmogenic substrates, particularly relevant for patients with nonischemic cardiomyopathy (NICM) sub‐optimal outcomes. We assessed impact advanced on safety and long‐term efficacy radiofrequency catheter (RCA) VT, comparing NICM ischemic (ICM). Methods In this prospective, single‐center study, consecutive referred scar‐related VT underwent...
A fourteen year schistosomiasis control program in Peri-Peri (Capim Branco, MG) reduced prevalence from 43.5 to 4.4%; incidence 19.0 2.9%, the geometric mean of number eggs 281 87 and level hepatoesplenic form cases 5.9 0.0%. In 1991, three years after interruption program, had risen 19.6%. The district consists Barbosa (a rural area) itself (an urban area). two areas was 28.4% 16.0% respectively. multivariate analysis risk factors for indicated domestic agricultural activity with population...
Background and Objective: Masked uncontrolled hypertension (MUCH) is commonly observed in patients with who are normotensive the clinic. MUCH associated increased risk for target- organ damage adverse cardiovascular renal outcomes high-risk patients, such as those chronic kidney disease (CKD). The objective of this study was to evaluate predictors CKD. Methods: This cross-sectional that performed 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure (BP) monitoring (ABPM) 220 CKD (glomerular filtration rate...
Abstract Introduction Same-day discharge after atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation represents a paradigm shift in post-procedure care. This approach allows patients (pts) to return home on the same day their ablation, promoting comfort and reducing hospitalization duration. Purpose To evaluate safety of same-day pts submitted either pulsed field (PFA) or cryoablation (CA). Methods Single-center retrospective study AF with PFA CA from May 2019 November 2023. Ablation strategy consisted...
A Disfunção Temporomandibular (DTM) compreende um grupo de distúrbios que afetam as articulações temporomandibulares, músculos mastigatórios e estruturas associadas, manifestando-se principalmente por dor, limitação funcional desconforto na região facial. etiologia das DTMs é multifatorial, envolvendo aspectos biomecânicos, emocionais psicossociais, com impacto significativo qualidade vida dos indivíduos afetados. Diversas abordagens terapêuticas têm sido adotadas para o tratamento da DTM,...
O Diabetes Mellitus tipo 1 (DM1) é uma doença autoimune que se manifesta principalmente na infância ou adolescência, caracterizando-se pelo aumento dos níveis de glicose no sangue conhecida como hiperglicemia. Essa condição afeta crianças e adolescentes, mas também pode surgir em adultos jovens. Nesse contexto, o Brasil ocupa a terceira posição entre os cinco países com maior incidência DM apresenta um anual número novos casos. principal objetivo do tratamento é, principalmente, prevenir...
Abstract Introduction The treatment of ventricular tachycardia (VT) in patients (pts) with ischemic heart disease (IHD) represents a challenge because its high morbidity and mortality rates low long-term success rates. In the VANISH clinical trial, 51% pts undergoing conventional ablation technique developed within 2 years combined outcome or electrical storm (ES) appropriate CDI shock. use high-density substrate maps can lead to greater precision evaluation ideally improved success....
Abstract Introduction Pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) is the central element in ablation of atrial fibrillation (AF), and can be obtained with different modalities. The duty-cycled circular multi-pole catheter PVAC® (Medtronic) allows linear application radiofrequency energy, production circumferential lesions. Conceptually, it make simpler faster patients favorable anatomy. Objectives To evaluate safety efficacy a to compare conventional technique point-by-point (PbP) irrigated catheter....
Abstract Funding Acknowledgements Type of funding sources: None. Introduction In several structural arrhythmogenic diseases that comprise intricate endocardial, intramural and epicardial substrates, endocardial ablation ventricular tachycardia (VT) is not sufficient has lately become a complementary necessary tool. Purpose To evaluate the clinical characteristics patients (pts) most suitable for first intention VT ablation. Methods Single-center prospective study consecutive pts with heart...
Abstract Funding Acknowledgements Type of funding sources: None. Introduction Atrial Fibrillation (AF) ablation can be performed by inducing pulmonary vein electrical isolation. There are two widely used approaches: point-by-point and single-shot. Catheter AF is effective in restoring maintaining sinus rhythm. However, efficacy limited high rate recurrence, after an initially successful procedure. Purpose To evaluate index successfulness using single-shot techniques compare them to...
