Resumo
Introdução: O traumatismo cranioencefálico constitui um dos principais problemas de saúde pública e está entre as principais causas de morte, incapacidade ou invalidez. As suas características variam de acordo com a população envolvida, sendo de expressiva importância o conhecimento das características das internações de modo a elaborar diretrizes básicas para programas de prevenção e também intervenções específicas na área assistencial. Objetivos: Caracterizar o perfil epidemiológico do traumatismo cranioencefálico (TCE) na Unidade de Terapia Intensiva do Hospital de Base de Bauru e elaborar um Guia de orientações pós-alta hospitalar para o cuidador. Métodos: Estudo quantitativo, retrospectivo e de natureza documental, baseado na análise de prontuários eletrônicos de pacientes vítimas de traumatismo cranioencefálico internados no período de janeiro a julho de 2016. Resultados: Foram admitidos 156 pacientes (29,65%) com traumatismo cranioencefálico; 139 prontuários atendiam os critérios de inclusão e foram analisados. Houve predomínio de idosos e adultos (idade 41 anos ou mais), representando 58,28% da amostra; prevalência do sexo masculino (82%) e traumatismos causados por quedas (39,57%), seguidos de espancamentos (15,11%) e acidentes motociclísticos (14,39%). Desses pacientes, 24 evoluíram a óbito; 19 pacientes receberam alta com algum déficit (neurológico, motor ou visual) e com 27 dispositivos invasivos. Conclusão: Apesar das altas taxas de prevalência de traumatismo cranioencefálico no Brasil e do seu significativo impacto econômico e social, o número de estudos com dados epidemiológicos consistentes permanece escasso. Este estudo pode contribuir para direcionar ações de saúde e políticas públicas na região de Bauru em relação ao cuidado com as vítimas de TCE, assim como do agente causador. Pode também ajudar na efetivação do processo de cuidar da população vulnerável e investir em programas de prevenção, reduzindo sequelas e minimizando os custos ao Sistema Único de Saúde. Produto da dissertação: O Guia “Orientações pós-alta hospitalar para o cuidador de pacientes acamados” foi elaborado para orientar os cuidadores e apoiar as principais ações no domicílio, proporcionando assistência de qualidade.
Cranioencephalic trauma is a major public health problem and is among the main causes of death, incapacity or disability. Its characteristics vary according to the population involved, and the knowledge of the characteristics of hospitalizations is of significant importance in order to elaborate basic guidelines for prevention programs and also specific interventions in the care area. Objectives: To characterize the epidemiological profile of Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) in the Intensive Care Unit of Bauru Base Hospital and to prepare a post-discharge guidebook with orientations to caregivers. Methods: Quantitative, retrospective and documental study based on the analysis of the electronic records of patients with traumatic brain injury hospitalized from January to July, 2016. Results: A total of 156 patients (29.65%) were admitted with traumatic brain injury; 139 medical records met the inclusion criteria and were analyzed. There was a predominance of elderly and adults (age 41 years or older), representing 58.28% of the sample; male prevalence (82%) and injuries caused by falls (39.57%), followed by beatings (15.11%) and motorcycle accidents (14.39%). Of these patients, 24 evolved to death; 19 patients were discharged with some neurological, motor or visual deficit, and another 27 with invasive devices. Conclusion: Despite the high rates of prevalence of cranioencephalic trauma in Brazil, and its significant economic and social impact, the number of studies with consistent epidemiological data remains scarce. This study may contribute to orientate health actions and public policies in the region of Bauru related to the care for the victims of TBI, as well as those regarding the causative agent. It can also help with the effectiveness of the process of caring among segments of the population considerd vulnerable, as well as in investiments in prevention programs, reducing sequelae and minimizing costs to the Unified Health System. Outcome of the dissertation: The guidebook Post-discharge guidelines for the caregiver of bedridden patients was developed to guide caregivers and support main actions at home, helping to provide quality care.
