A Enfermagem e o paciente hipertenso em uma abordagem multiprofissional: relato de experiência

The Arterial Hypertension League (LHA), has enable the team to carry out a multiprofessional approach by highly prizing the actions of the medical team, comprised of: doctors, nurses, nutritionists, physical education teachers and psychologists. In this working structure, nursing represents an important supporting pillar, as it participates in 50% of the actions. The nurse's work consist of attending the patients in preconsultation, consultation and pos-consultation procedures; talking part in the team meetings with the patients (The Hypertension Club); drawing up and carrying out research projects and coordinating the team's efforts. The participation of the nursing staff in the work done by the health team has a afforded a greater efficiency to the work, and at same time, it is a great training field for students.La Liga de Hipertensão Arterial (LHA) estabelecida en 1989, con el obetivo de ser un centro de tratamiento, enseñansa y invetigación en hipertensión, há funcionado de manera modelar, posibilitando trabajo multidisciplinar, valorando las acciones del equipo de salud. En esta estructura, la Enfermería representa importante pilar de sustentación, participando con 50% de las acciones. Su trabajo consiste en el atendimiento propiamente dicho (pre-consultas, post-consultas y consultas), participación en las reuniones del equipo con los pacientes (Club del Hipertenso), elaboración y ejecución de proyectos de investigación y coordinación del servicio. La participacipación de la Enfermería, junto con el equipo de salud ha propiciado mayor eficacia del servicio, ofreciendo excelente campo de entrenamiento a profesionales en formación.A liga de Hipertensão Arterial (LHA) criada em 1989, visando ser centro de tratamento, ensino e pesquisa em hipertensão, tem funcionado de maneira modelar, possibilitando trabalho multidisciplinar, valorizando as ações da equipe saúde.

Pervasive gaps in Amazonian ecological research

Biodiversity loss is one of the main challenges of our time,1,2 and attempts to address it require a clear un derstanding of how ecological communities respond to environmental change across time and space.3,4 While the increasing availability of global databases on ecological communities has advanced our knowledge of biodiversity sensitivity to environmental changes,5–7 vast areas of the tropics remain understudied.8–11 In the American tropics, Amazonia stands out as the world’s most diverse rainforest and the primary source of Neotropical biodiversity,12 but it remains among the least known forests in America and is often underrepre sented in biodiversity databases.13–15 To worsen this situation, human-induced modifications16,17 may elim inate pieces of the Amazon’s biodiversity puzzle before we can use them to understand how ecological com munities are responding. To increase generalization and applicability of biodiversity knowledge,18,19 it is thus crucial to reduce biases in ecological research, particularly in regions projected to face the most pronounced environmental changes. We integrate ecological community metadata of 7,694 sampling sites for multiple or ganism groups in a machine learning model framework to map the research probability across the Brazilian Amazonia, while identifying the region’s vulnerability to environmental change. 15%–18% of the most ne glected areas in ecological research are expected to experience severe climate or land use changes by 2050. This means that unless we take immediate action, we will not be able to establish their current status, much less monitor how it is changing and what is being lostinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio
