Os impactos da pandemia de Coronavírus na Saúde mental de enfermeiros

Introduction: This work is based on concerns related to the increase in mental health impact rates that have been affecting nursing professionals, and which are mainly highlighted during the COVID-19 pandemic. Objective: To produce a theoretical reflection on emotional exhaustion in the hospital environment of nurses in the face of the pandemic. Methodology: This is an Integrative Literature Review (RIL) or was developed through a search for publications obtained in the databases: LILACS and VHL. The descriptors of mental health, nursing and coronavirus infections were used. Finally, 06 publications were chosen to compose the study. Results: During the research, it became clear how, in times of COVID-19, nurses have been developing considerable problems in their mental health, such as stress, fatigue, anxiety and even depression. This can be caused by work overload, as well as fatigue, both physical and mental, the feeling of incapacity and professional uncertainty. Final considerations: Therefore, it is important to ensure attention to the psycho-emotional health of nurses, supported by interventions aimed at better space and working conditions.Introdução: Este trabalho parte da inquietação relacionada aos acréscimos das taxas de impactos na saúde mental que vem afetando os profissionais da enfermagem, e que durante a pandemia da COVID-19 estão principalmente acentuadas. Objetivo: Produzir uma reflexão teórica sobre o esgotamento emocional no ambiente hospitalar dos enfermeiros frente à pandemia. Metodologia: Trata-se de uma Revisão Integrativa da Literatura (RIL) o qual foi desenvolvido mediante a busca de publicações obtidas nas bases de dados: LILACS e BVS. Foram utilizados os descritores de saúde mental, enfermagem e infecções por coronavírus. Por fim, optou-se por 06 publicações para compor o estudo. Resultados: No decorrer da pesquisa, foi tornando-se notório como, em tempos de COVID-19, os enfermeiros vêm desenvolvendo inúmeros problemas em sua saúde mental, tais como estresse, fadiga, ansiedade e até mesmo depressão. Isso pode ser ocasionado pela sobrecarga de trabalho, bem como pelo cansaço, tanto físico como mental, pela sensação de incapacidade e incerteza profissional. Considerações finais: Constata-se, portanto, a importância em   garantir uma atenção para a saúde psicoemocional do enfermeiro(a), apoiado em intervenções que visem um melhor espaço e condições de trabalho

Search for dark matter produced in association with bottom or top quarks in √s = 13 TeV pp collisions with the ATLAS detector

A search for weakly interacting massive particle dark matter produced in association with bottom or top quarks is presented. Final states containing third-generation quarks and miss- ing transverse momentum are considered. The analysis uses 36.1 fb−1 of proton–proton collision data recorded by the ATLAS experiment at √s = 13 TeV in 2015 and 2016. No significant excess of events above the estimated backgrounds is observed. The results are in- terpreted in the framework of simplified models of spin-0 dark-matter mediators. For colour- neutral spin-0 mediators produced in association with top quarks and decaying into a pair of dark-matter particles, mediator masses below 50 GeV are excluded assuming a dark-matter candidate mass of 1 GeV and unitary couplings. For scalar and pseudoscalar mediators produced in association with bottom quarks, the search sets limits on the production cross- section of 300 times the predicted rate for mediators with masses between 10 and 50 GeV and assuming a dark-matter mass of 1 GeV and unitary coupling. Constraints on colour- charged scalar simplified models are also presented. Assuming a dark-matter particle mass of 35 GeV, mediator particles with mass below 1.1 TeV are excluded for couplings yielding a dark-matter relic density consistent with measurements
