O enfermeiro está exposto a eventos estressantes diariamente, além do constrangimento que expõe a vida do profissional e influencia negativamente o físico e o psicológico. O objetivo deste estudo é analisar os aspectos de condições de trabalho, saúde mental e da qualidade de vida que interferem diretamente na vida pessoal e profissional. Trata-se de um estudo transversal, estruturado conforme STROBE. Foi realizado, de forma online, em 26 estados do Brasil e 01 unidade federativa. No que se refere às variáveis de categorias do estudo foram calculados os coeficientes de correlação utilizado Spearman entre os domínios e teste não paramétrico. As variáveis sociodemográficas em associação com os domínios da qualidade de vida, apresentaram maior impacto no consumo elevado de medicamentos psicotrópicos, afetando os domínios físicos, psicológicos, meio ambiente e relações sociais, interferindo diretamente na vida pessoal e profissional. Diante das análises das condições de trabalho, saúde mental e qualidade de vida dos enfermeiros que contraíram a COVID 19, observa-se que sintomas como tristeza, solidão, medo, angústia afetaram diretamente a vida do enfermeiro. Demonstrando a probabilidade de o profissional desenvolver depressão, síndrome de Burnout, ansiedade e insônia.

Due to the worldwide rise in cancer incidence, and therefore the rise in the need for antineoplastic chemotherapy, it is important for both healthcare professionals and patients alike that the side effects of chemotherapy, such as chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV), are treated and prevented. Auriculotherapy is a type of acupuncture and may be a low-cost and safe antiemetic measure to control the side effects of chemotherapy. The goal of this systematic review is to synthesize the available evidence in the literature regarding the auriculotherapy effects to treat CINV in people with cancer. The review will only include randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that compare the clinical effects of the auriculotherapy intervention (used alone or as an add-on), with sham auriculotherapy, routine treatment with antiemetic drugs, or other non-pharmacological interventions in patients with cancer with CINV who are undergoing chemotherapy. The outcomes to be evaluated are nausea and vomiting: in acute, delayed, or anticipated stages, when induced by chemotherapy. A comprehensive search for studies will be carried out in these databases: MEDLINE via PubMed, EMBASE, CINAHL, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, ICTRP, LILACS, CUMED, IBECS, BVS MTCI Americas, Web of Science, Scopus, PEDro, CNKI, and CBMdisc up until December 31, 2018. Only articles in English, Portuguese, and Spanish will be selected. Two independent reviewers will evaluate full texts, extract data, and assess the risk of bias of eligible articles. The quality of evidence will be assessed using Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE). A meta-analysis will be undertaken to assess the interventions and outcomes’ homogeneity, assessing statistical heterogeneity using the Cochran’s Q test and quantified using Higgins’ inconsistency index. If there is insufficient data for a meta-analysis, a narrative synthesis will be presented. This protocol has been prepared according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis Protocols (PRISMA-P) guidelines. The results of this systematic review will summarize the strength of evidence for the use of auriculotherapy in the control of CINV of patients with cancer and will be used to identify evidence gaps.

RESUMO Objetivo: avaliar a qualidade de vida relacionada à saúde de pacientes com câncer em cuidados paliativos e sua associação com aspectos sociodemográficos e clínicos. Método: estudo analítico, transversal, do qual participaram 127 pacientes. Foram utilizados instrumentos de caracterização sociodemográfica e de avaliação de qualidade de vida - European Organization for Research and Treatment for Cancer. Para análise dos dados, aplicaram-se os testes Kolmogorov-Smirnov, Mann-Whitney e Kruskal-Wallis. Resultados: na avaliação de qualidade de vida, o Estado de Saúde Global e Função Desempenho de Papel tiveram pior avaliação; na Escala de Sintomas, dor, fadiga, insônia e perda do apetite tiveram destaque. Na associação dos domínios do instrumento de coleta de dados com as variáveis sociodemográficas houve associação significativa da idade e escolaridade com função cognitiva, e de renda mensal com estado geral de saúde; com as variáveis clínicas houve associação significativa de metástase com função física; radioterapia com função social, e tempo de hospitalização com Escala Funcional. A Escala de Sintomas apresentou associação significativa de fadiga com metástase, quimioterapia e tempo de hospitalização; dor com quimioterapia e tempo de hospitalização; insônia com procedimento cirúrgico e perda de apetite com quimioterapia. Conclusão: o prejuízo na capacidade funcional, decorrente do câncer, afeta a capacidade do paciente de desempenhar atividades da vida diária, as relações sociais e a situação financeira. Aspectos sociodemográficos e clínicos devem ser considerados na avaliação da qualidade de vida desses pacientes, de forma a possibilitar atenção humanizada e integralizada aos princípios do Sistema Único de Saúde vigentes no Brasil.

Objective: characterize the scientific production of Brazil and Spain in regard to methodological aspects and aspects of health-related quality of life experienced by cancer patients receiving chemotherapy in both countries. Method: integrative literature review was conducted using the following databases: CINAHL, MEDLINE, SCOPUS and CUIDEN and the electronic libraries PubMed and SciELO, conducted in September 2013. Results: a total of 28 papers met the inclusion criteria. The synthesis of knowledge was presented in three categories of analysis: assessment of quality of life in different types of cancer; sociodemographic factors that influenced quality of life; and type of cancer and interventions that improve quality of life. Chemotherapy affects health-related quality of life and the most important factors were: age, sex, chemotherapy protocol, type of surgery, stage of the disease, educational level, and emotional intelligence. Complementary therapies such as acupuncture, guided visualization, prayers and exercise were positive and reduced side effects. Conclusion: the results showed a poor level of evidence, since 86% of the studies were cross-sectional descriptive studies; the instrument most frequently used to measure health-related quality of life was EORTC QLQ C-30 and more studies were conducted in Brazil than in Spain.

92 Background: In Brazil, the estimate for the year 2015 is approximately 576,000 new cases of cancer. Breast cancer is the most common in Brazilian women and the state of Pará is the first with the highest incidence of breast cancer in northern Brazil. The high incidence and changes caused by treatment and own illness as the disturbances in body image, functional, emotional and social changes cause fear in women, as well as disrupting daily activities and impact the health-Related Quality of Life (HRQOL). Improving HRQOL is an important goal so the evaluation of HRQoL of these patients is of interest to health professionals, as they provide information that help in planning treatment and rehabilitation. The objective is to evaluate the HRQoL of patients with breast cancer in chemotherapy treatment. Methods: It is a cross-sectional study with quantitative exploratory design. This place was a public hospital in the city of Belém do Pará, Women were included with breast cancer, over eighteen years old and excluded those with cognitive problems and metastases. The European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life (EORTC QLQ C 30) and Questionnaire Breast Cancer Module (QLQ BR23) have been administrated. The project was approved by the Ethics Committee and were respected the resolution 466/2012 CNS / MS. Results: The sample consisted of 89 women with breast cancer undergoing chemotherapy, most in the age group over 40, mulatto, married, fundamental level of education, domestic load, Catholic religion, live in rural areas with incomes of one to two minimum salaries. The EORTC QLQ C 30 showed that the average QOL was 75.56, and the most impaired functions were physical (M = 65.62) and role performance (M = 58.61) and the most frequent symptoms were diarrhea, constipation, dyspnea, nausea and vomiting, fatigue, pain and loss of appetite. EORTC BR23 demonstrated functional scale (M = 49.95) and symptoms scale (M = 33.00). Conclusions: The results show that the side effects of chemotherapy affect the physical and functional function and consequently HRQoL of these patients.

85 Background: In Brazil, breast cancer has the second highest incidence of neoplasms, the most common among women. It is expected there will be 57,120 new cases and a risk 56.09 cases per 100 thousand women. For its treatment, neurotoxic chemotherapeutics that can cause chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) are used. Methods: This is an exploratory descriptive study developed in a cancer treatment reference hospital in the city of Sao Paulo, Brazil. Aim: To search the patients with breast cancer during treatment with neurotoxic agents and evaluate the presence of CIPN with application of Chemotherapy-Induced Peripheral Neuropathy Assessment Tool questionnaire (CIPNAT). Results: The sample was 44 women with a mean age of 52 years (SD = 10.54), 47.7% had local disease, 72.7% were treating with taxanes neurotoxic agents. The main neuropathic symptoms measured at CIPNAT: 75% had motor symptom weakness with an average score for severity of 6.45 causing an average of distress 5.36; 65.9% muscle and joint pain average severity of 6.31 causing an average of 5.59 distress; and 56.8% sensitive symptom numbness in the hands average severity of 4.76 causing an average of 3.52 distress. These symptoms had a negative impact in the activities of daily living (ADL) such as physical exercise (mean score = 5.32), enjoyment of life (mean score = 4.77) and leisure activities (mean score = 4, 03). Although few (13.6%) reported that suffered some injury or accident due to CIPN. Discussion: The results are consistent with those presented in the scientific literature, but measured with other assessment tools such as the NCI CTCAE, WHO and EORTC QLQ-C30 and CIPN20, which also showed that motor disorders (weakness, muscle cramps and loss of strength in the hands) and sensory (numbness and tingling in the hands and feet). Conclusions: The study explores the relationship between CIPN and ADL affected during treatment for breast cancer. Through the motor and sensory symptoms reported by CIPNAT, nursing will have grant to develop educational strategies to prevent and minimize negative impacts on the quality of life of women with breast cancer undergoing treatment with neurotoxic agents.

Estudo descritivo, transversal desenvolvido com objetivo de associar aspectos socio demográficos e clínicos aos domínios de qualidade de vida relacionada à saúde (QVRS), para avaliar pacientes onco-hematológicos submetidos à quimioterapia. Na coleta de dados utilizou-se um instrumento sociodemográfico e clínico e o European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire (EORTC) QLQ-C-30. A amostra foi constituída de 32 pacientes, sendo oito (25%) com diagnóstico de linfoma de Hodgkin, nove (28,12%) linfoma não Hodgkin e 15 (46,87%) leucemia. Os dados foram analisados pelo software Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS). O QLQ-C-30 mostrou média das funções física, cognitiva, emocional, social e desempenho de papel de 54,81 a 41,18, demonstrando um nível pouco satisfatório. Nas escalas de sintomas, houve predomínio de fadiga média 64,57 seguida de insônia (56,90) e perda de apetite (50,71). Esses sintomas interferiram nas funções físicas, emocionais e cognitivas demonstrando que efeitos colaterais do tratamento influenciam negativamente na QVRS dos pacientes.

To assess the prevalence of depression and fatigue symptoms in head and neck cancer patients during radiotherapy treatment and relate them symptoms with these patients’ quality of life. This is a prospective study. The Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), Piper Fatigue Scale-revised and Functional Assessment Cancer Therapy Head and Neck (FACT-H&N) were applied to 41 head and neck cancer patients at three times: at the start of treatment (T1), approximately 15 days after the start of treatment (T2) and at the end of treatment (T3), approximately 30 days after the start of the radiotherapy. The mean BDI and PIPER increased during the radiotherapy treatment. BDI scores did not demonstrate the presence of depression, although the number of symptoms increased, and the presence of fatigue rose as treatment advanced. The mean FACT H&N decreased in the middle and at the end of treatment, indicating worsening in these patients’ Quality of Life. Depression and fatigue symptoms increased during radiotherapy treatment, while QoL levels decreased. This demonstrates that these symptoms are strongly correlated and that their presence negatively influenced QoL. At the start of treatment, nurses need to advise patients and plan care, offering interventions to decrease these symptoms and improve QoL.
