Altered Physiology

Background: Critically ill obstetric patients pose challenges to the intensive care unit team due to their altered physiology as well as due the presence of the foetus and safety of both the mother and the foetus is of paramount importance.Methods: All antenatal and postnatal cases within 42days of delivery requiring ICU admission from October 2014 to September 2016. Detailed history taken and outcome noted. Results were subjected to statistical evaluation using SSP software.Results: (n=75): obstetric reasons (n=51, 68%) of which 21(28%) had PPH and 17(22.6) had hypertensive disorders of pregnancy. Non-obstetric reasons (n=24, 32%) of which 7(9.3%) cases had jaundice and 4(5.3%) had malaria. Mechanical ventilation was needed in the majority of cases (n=44, 58.7%) followed by inotropic support (n=30, 40%).Maternal mortality was 16%. Mortality was higher (n=8, 66.6%) among patients admitted for obstetric reasons as opposed to non-obstetric indications (n=4, 33.3%).Conclusions: Early detection and prompt referral to the tertiary centre with intensive care facilities should be promoted among the medical fraternity to reduce the incidence of ICU admissions and maternal mortality. All residents of obstetrics and gynaecology should have short mandatory training phase in critical care. Multicentre randomised studies are required for formulating evidence-based national guidelines.

Terapia Intensiva

Objetivo: O objetivo do estudo foi conhecer as expectativas da equipe da unidade de terapia intensiva pediátrica quanto às atividades a serem realizadas pelo farmacêutico clínico a fim de planejar seu trabalho junto com a equipe multidisciplinar. Desenho do estudo: Estudo transversal, envolvendo a equipe multidisciplinar da unidade de terapia intensiva pediátrica de um hospital universitário terciário. Método: Um questionário autopreenchível contendo perguntas sobre as expectativas da equipe da unidade de terapia intensiva pediátrica em relação ao papel do farmacêutico clínico na equipe multidisciplinar foi aplicado aos membros da equipe, utilizando a escala de resposta do tipo Likert. Resultados: Os auxiliares/ técnicos de enfermagem e fisioterapeutas mostraram maior expectativa em relação a questões relacionadas com a administração de medicamentos; para enfermeiros, a expectativa sobre o desempenho do farmacêutico clínico focou-se em questões relacionadas à prescrição de medicações, como a avaliação da antibioticoterapia, enquanto os médicos consideraram mais importantes informações sobre a terapia medicamentosa, como a notificação de alergias relacionadas às drogas, informações sobre o aprazamento de medicamentos e avaliação da administração de drogas por sonda gástrica ou enteral. Conclusões: As expectativas da equipe variaram de acordo com as necessidades e a rotina de cada categoria profissional. Os resultados deste estudo têm contribuído para a implantação do serviço de farmácia clínica em uma unidade de terapia intensiva pediátrica brasileira
