Burnout Syndrome in Primary Health Care professionals during the COVID-19 pandemic

Workers in Primary Health Care (PHC) play a key role in coping with COVID-19, which required personal and work-flow changes, causing physical and emotional overload and stress, which could lead to Burnout Syndrome (BS). The objective of this study was to check the prevalence of BS in health professionals working in PHC in the municipality of Curitibanos, state of Santa Catarina, Brazil. The research was carried out between November 2020 and May 2021, a sociodemographic questionnaire, and the Brazilian version of the Maslach Burnout Inventory - Human Services Survey (MBI-HSS), which contains 22 questions and three dimensions - Emotional Exhaustion (EE), Depersonalization (DP) and Personal Fulfillment (PF), were applied. Data were collected and analyzed descriptively with subsequent statistical comparison. Participants were50 volunteers aged 40.1 ± 9.5 years, time in the profession of 10.8 ± 7.9 years. Results of the MBI-HSS showed the prevalence of risk was moderate for EE and high for DP and PF. However, no significant difference was detected between the MBI-HSS dimensions and sociodemographic variables. In conclusion, the prevalence of risk was 17.6+11.4 points in EE (moderate); 6.6+5.0 points in DP (moderate) and 36.8+6.6 points in RP (high), indicating that the evaluated population already demands some need for contingency or preventive care because it has a clear predisposition to BS. However, there was no statistical association with sociodemographic variables

Cirurgia de descompressão múltipla de canal vertebral em doença do disco intervertebral (DDIV) cervical em cão: relato de caso.

TCC (graduação) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Campus Curitibanos, Medicina Veterinária.As discopatias constituem uma das causas mais comuns de disfunção neurológicas em cães, possuindo classificação complexa. As extrusões discais decorrentes, afetam predominantemente cães de raças condrodistróficas entre três e oito anos. A desobstrução do canal vertebral e, consequentemente, a descompressão da medula espinhal constituem o tratamento preferencial nos casos em que há dano neurológico. As técnicas de escolha para descompressão são eleitas considerando a região de acometimento. Assim, esta monografia tem como finalidade relatar o caso de um canino, macho, da raça Beagle, com 8 anos de idade, pesando 13,25kg, apresentando sinais de paraplegia flácida, com aparecimento agudo em menos de uma semana. O exame de imagem tomográfica revelou compressão nas regiões cervicais, entre C5-C6 e C6-C7. Para o tratamento da compressão medular foi utilizada a técnica de Fenda Ventral, para ambos os segmentos cervicais, e posteriores sessões de fisioterapia e reabilitação.Discopathies constitute one of the most common causes of neurological dysfunction in dogs, with a complex classification. Disc extrusions, resulting from this condition, predominantly affect chondrodystrophic dog breeds between three and eight years of age. Vertebral canal decompression and consequently spinal cord decompression are the preferred treatments in cases of neurological damage. The choice of decompression techniques is based on the affected region. Therefore, the purpose of this monograph is to report the case of an 8-year-old male Beagle weighing 13.25 kg, presenting signs of flaccid paraplegia that appeared acutely in less than a week. The tomographic imaging examination revealed compression in the cervical regions, between C5-C6 and C6-C7. The Ventral Slot technique was used for spinal cord decompression in both cervical segments, followed by physiotherapy and rehabilitation sessions
