Educação em saúde acerca das doenças crônicas e ao cuidado interdisciplinar

Introduction: Health Education is considered an important tool for promoting health, since a chronic disease promotes significant changes in the lives of its sufferers, it becomes crucial. Objective: Evaluate health education about chronic diseases. Methodology: Integrative literature review research, guided by the following steps: construction of the research question; delimitation of inclusion and exclusion criteria; choice of databases; search and selection of studies; analysis and presentation of results. Results and Discussion: 47 studies were identified, after applying the language inclusion criteria, remaining 32 studies, and then reading the titles, in which 17 articles were excluded, as they were not related to the objective of this article. The abstracts of the 15 articles selected from the analysis of the titles were read and only those that met the inclusion criteria had their abstracts investigated. Conclusion: Therefore, we conclude that the study presented difficulties in evaluating health education in various types of chronic diseases, much of the research emphasizes diabetes and hypertension. However, the importance of primary care and a multidisciplinary team integrated in the care of patients with chronic diseases is clear.Introdução: A Educação em Saúde é considerada uma importante ferramenta de promoção a saúde, visando que uma doença crônica promove mudanças significativas na vida de seus portadores, ela torna-se crucial. Objetivo: Avaliar a educação em saúde acerca das doenças crônicas. Metodologia: Pesquisa de revisão integrativa da literatura, guiada pelas seguintes etapas: construção da questão de pesquisa; delimitação dos critérios de inclusão e exclusão; escolha das bases de dados; busca e seleção dos estudos; análise e exposição dos resultados. Resultados e Discussão: Foram identificados 47 estudos, depois da aplicação do critério de inclusão do idioma, permanecendo os 32 estudos, e em seguida a leitura dos títulos, nos quais foram excluídos 17 artigos, por não estarem relacionados ao objetivo deste artigo. Houve a leitura dos resumos dos 15 artigos selecionados a partir da análise dos títulos e somente aqueles dentro dos critérios de inclusão tiveram os resumos investigados.  Conclusão: Sendo assim, concluímos que o estudo apresentou dificuldades no quesito de avaliar a educação em saúde em vários tipos de doenças crônicas, grande parte das pesquisas enfatizam diabetes e hipertensão. Todavia, fica nítido a importância da atenção primária e de uma equipe multiprofissional integrada no cuidado ao paciente com doenças crônicas

Applications of platelet- and leukocyte-rich fibrin (L-PRF) in Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

Introduction: Oral and maxillofacial surgery plays a crucial role in the reconstruction and restoration of facial structures, seeking to improve both aesthetics and function. The use of platelet-rich fibrin (L-PRF) represents a notable advance, accelerating healing and improving surgical outcomes. Materials and Methods: This review covers 710 studies from various electronic databases (PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, Science Direct and Google Scholar). The aim is to thoroughly investigate the applications of platelet- and leukocyte-rich fibrin (L-PRF) in Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery and Traumatology. Results: The analysis reveals that L-PRF stands out as an effective autologous therapy in oral and maxillofacial surgery. Its application shows remarkable potential for accelerating the healing process, contributing significantly to the effectiveness of procedures. Discussion: L-PRF has emerged as an excellent choice in oral and maxillofacial surgery and traumatology, improving both the aesthetic and functional aspects of facial reconstructions. This highlights the relevance of this autologous therapy and its benefits in surgical practice. Conclusion: The applications of platelet and leukocyte-rich fibrin (L-PRF) in Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery and Traumatology are fundamental and promising. This advance represents not only a means of accelerating healing, but also a significant contribution to better aesthetic and functional results in surgical procedures in this area.Introduction: Oral and maxillofacial surgery plays a crucial role in the reconstruction and restoration of facial structures, seeking to improve both aesthetics and function.
