Departamento de Ensino. Programa de Pós-Graduação em Saúde da Criança e da Mulher. Rio de Janeiro, RJ, BrasilInvestigamos a atuação da clínica fisioterapêutica, no tocante à funcionalidade dos pacientes com osteogênese imperfeita (OI), inscritos no Programa de Tratamento de Osteogênese Imperfeita do Instituto Nacional de Saúde da Mulher, da Criança e do Adolescente Fernandes Figueira da Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (INSMCA/IFF/FIOCRUZ), coordenado pelo Centro de Referência de Osteogênese Imperfeita do INSMCA/FIOCRUZ (CROI/IFF). A atuação da clínica fisioterapêutica considera aspectos como: (a) a funcionalidade; (b) os estímulos táteis e, (c) as ações preventivas como facilitadores do desenvolvimento motor e da reabilitação de indivíduos com OI. O objetivo geral foi analisar a funcionalidade dos indivíduos com OI em tratamento fisioterapêutico no CROI/IFF. Os objetivos específicos foram: (a) analisar o processo de locomoção dos pacientes com OI, mapeando os fatores que o influenciam; (b) avaliar a capacidade funcional mediante a mensuração da amplitude de movimento, e (c) discutir os exercícios, atividades fisioterapêuticas e orientações aos familiares propostas para os pacientes com OI. Lançamos mão de duas abordagens: as análises bioestatísticas e a perspectiva etnográfica, compondo uma pesquisa exploratória e um estudo de caso institucional. O estudo foi desenvolvido com pacientes com OI atendidos no CROI/IFF entre 2004 e 2008, totalizando 92 sujeitos de pesquisa. O Epi-Info versão 3.4 e o SPSS versão 15 foram empregados na construção de banco de dados e para cálculos estatísticos. Em relação à perspectiva etnográfica, tomou-se como fonte as anotações feitas num diário de campo durante as diversas avaliações fisioterapêuticas, analisando-as via uma codificação analítica qualitativa seguida pela análise semiótica. Os resultados são apresentados em três artigos. O primeiro expõe a relação entre a marcha independente na OI e os fatores que a influenciam, ressaltando-se a associação negativa entre hipotonia, número de fraturas e os desfechos de interesse e positiva entre marcha independente e OI tipo I. O segundo aborda a hipermobilidade articular como característica clínica da OI e a hipotonia observada nesta amostra como aspectos contribuintes às limitações funcionais, estabelecendo que a primeira se associa à idade e a segunda ao tipo de OI. O terceiro remete-se aos relatos da experiência de campo marcando as múltiplas dimensões da ação fisioterapêutica assentada num diálogo que envolve os pacientes, seus familiares e o fisioterapeuta, aprofundando a compreensão do movimento humano nesta doença. Salienta-se que o incentivo precoce reduziu as contraturas musculares com melhora do tônus muscular; os manuseios fisioterapêuticos facilitaram a integração da percepção do corpo e ajudou a afastar o medo das fraturas, permitindo a construção de uma nova imagem funcional. Concluímos que como a OI é uma doença rara, necessita uma abordagem multidisciplinar e, no que tange à Fisioterapia, esta deve focar questões relevantes à mobilidade dos pacientes, procurando estabelecer estratégias de ação e caminhos para a maximização e ou recuperação de sua independência funcional.This study investigates a clinical physical therapy approach concerning functionality of patients with osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) enrolled at the OI Treatment Programme at the Instituto Nacional de Saúde da Mulher, da Criança e do Adolescente Fernandes Figueira - Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (INSMCA/IFF/FIOCRUZ), which is coordinated by the OI Reference Center at the same institution (CROI/IFF). Physical therapy assistance provided by the CROI/IFF takes into consideration aspects such as: a) functionality, b) tactile stimuli, and c) preventive actions regarded as key elements for promoting motor development and rehabilitation of individuals with OI. The objective was to analyse the functionality of patients with OI under physical therapy treatment carried out as part of the cited programme, and, more specifically, a) to analyse the locomotion process in those patients, mapping out factors that influence it; b) to evaluate functional capacity by measuring the amplitude of movement, and c) to discuss with patients and their families physical therapy activities, exercises, and orientations. The analysis followed two different approaches: biostatistical analyses and an ethnographic perspective, comprising an exploratory research and an institutional case study. The research subjects were 92 patients with OI treated at the CROI/IFF between 2004 and 2008. Epi-Info version 3.4 and SPSS version 15 were used to construct the database and for statistical analyses. Ethnographic approach was based on fieldnotes taken during physical therapy assessments. Those fieldnotes were submitted to a two-part codification - open and focused - followed by semiotic techniques of analysis. Results are presented in three articles. The first one investigates the relationship between the locomotion process in patients with OI and connected factors, highlighting that a negative association was observed between hypotonia, number of fractures and the outcomes of interest, and a positive association was observed between independent walk and OI type I. The second article focuses on articular hypermobility, a clinical feature of OI, and the presence of hypotonia in those patients as major issues that tend to worsen functional limitations. It discusses the association between hypermobillity and age and hypotonia and type of OI. The third article examines accounts of physical therapy assistance and emphasizes its multiple dimensions. Moreover, the paper argues that this kind of assistance should be based on a dialogue between patients/families and physical therapists, contributing to deepen the understanding of human movement in relation to OI. We argue that early encouragement to perform active movements within a safe environment reduced articular contratures and enhanced muscular tonus; physiotherapy manipulation facilitated the integration of body perception, contributed to reduce fear of fractures and allowed the construction of a new functional image. Finally, we highlight the significance of a multidisciplinary approach to rare diseases such as OI and, in the case of physical therapy, the importance of establishing strategic actions in order to recover or enhance functional independence of patients with OI

    Introduction: Individuals with osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) have bone fragility and osteopenia which cause fractures, mobility restriction and pain. Objective: This article examines a physiotherapy experience with people diagnosed with OI in an OI reference center of Rio de Janeiro. Materials and methods: This was an exploratory qualitative study, based on field notes related to physiotherapy care to 92 patients of both genders with clinical diagnoses of OI, aged between 30 days and 37 years old, during the period 20042008. The analysis comprised a reading of the field notes as a corpus, considering them as a means of understanding the subjects perspectives. Two different forms of codification were applied open and focused followed by semiotic analysis techniques. Results: Early encouragement to perform active movements within a safe environment, or even after fractures, reduced articular contractures and enhanced muscular tonus; physiotherapy manipulation facilitated the integration of body perception in relation to movements and responses to tactilekinesthetic-vestibular stimuli; promoting family involvement, by adopting practical solutions adapted to each patients reality, contributed to reduce fear of fractures and allowed the construction of a new functional image. Conclusion: Physiotherapy assessment and treatment should be based not only on clinical and neurofunctional elements and technical strategies, but also on a dialogue that includes the multiple dimensions of the patients and their family members, in order to engage them in a learning process to stimulate potentials, abilities and competences

Rio de Janeiro, RJ, Brasil.Objectives: investigation of the locomotion process in patients with osteogenesis imperfecta (OI), and the factors that influence it, with special attention to clinical aspects relating to motor rehabilitation. Methods: a retrospective, cross-sectional study was carried out at the physical therapy outpatient clinic of the Instituto Fernandes Figueira. All patients with a clinical diagnosis of OI were included. Patients with other diseases, and those aged under two years, old were excluded. Epi-Info version 3.4 was used to construct the database, and SPSS version 15 for the statistical analysis. Results: The odds-ratio was used to measure the association between independent walking and clinical characteristics, adopting a level of significance of 5% for the analysis. Results: 69 patients were included. Of these, 43.5% were classified as OI type I; 37.7% as type III and 18.8% as type IV. 76.8% presented long bone deformities. A negative association was observed between hypotonia, number of fractures, and independent walking. A positive association was observed between independent walking and OI type I. Conclusions: physical therapy, as a complementary approach to orthopedics, and the administration of medications of the biophosphonates class, are of fundamental importance for the rehabilitation of motor capacity of individuals with OI. Level of Evidence, cross sectional

    Apresenta-se uma revisão integrativa sobre estudos que abordam as relações entre profissionais de saúde e usuários durante as práticas em saúde. Objetivou-se identificar os aspectos pesquisados no cotidiano dos serviços acerca dessas relações. A coleta foi realizada nas bases Lilacs e Pubmed segundo os descritores: acolhimento; relações profissional-família; relações profissional-paciente; humanização da assistência; e a palavra 'vínculo' associada ao descritor Sistema Único de Saúde. Selecionaram-se 290 estudos publicados entre 1990 e 2010. Por meio da análise temática, foram criados cinco núcleos de sentido: a relevância da confiança na relação profissional-usuário; sentimentos e sentidos na prática do cuidado; a importância da comunicação nos serviços de saúde; modo de organização das práticas em saúde; e (des)colonialismo. Identificou-se que as relações estabelecidas nas práticas de saúde têm uma dimensão transformadora. No entanto, permanece o desafio de humanizar os serviços de saúde. A enfermagem se destaca na produção do conhecimento nessa temática.<br>This article presents an integrative review about studies that address the relationships between health professionals and users in health care practices. It aimed to identify aspects that were researched on the daily life of the services concerning such relationships. Data were collected from the Lilacs and Pubmed databases based on these descriptors: user embracement; professionalfamily relations; professionalpatient relations; humanization of the care; and the bonding word associated to the Single Health System descriptor. Two hundred and ninety studies, published from 1990 to 2010, were selected. Through thematic analyses, five meaning cores were created: the relevance of the confidence in the professionaluser relationship; feelings and senses in the health care practice; the importance of communications in health care services; ways to organize health care practices and (de)colonialism. It was found that relationships established in health care practices have a transformative dimension. However, the challenge to humanize health care services remains. Nursing stands out in the production of knowledge on such theme
