Introduction According to the World Health Organization, "Burnout syndrome occurs due to chronic stress in the workplace” and includes physical and psychological symptoms. The current COVID-19 pandemic has created an overload of work for health professionals worldwide, sometimes exceeding their capacities and even leading to suicide. Angola is a developing country and its health system is still fragile, for this reason the pandemic could have a serious impact. In March the first cases of COVID-19 were registered and their incidence progressively increased. Objective To determine the prevalence of Burnout Syndrome in Health Professionals who assisted suspected and confirmed cases with COVID-19 in Angola, between May and September 2020. Methodology An observational, descriptive and transversal study was carried out with 250 professionals (196 from Luanda and 54 from Benguela) who work in health institutions that care suspected and confirmed cases with COVID-19. The Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI-HSS) was applied, which includes three subscales: emotional exhaustion or fatigue, depersonalization and personal fulfillment. High levels of the first two and low levels of the third are indicative of the situation. The professionals' sociodemographic information was also obtained. Results It was found that 60% of participants were female, mean age 35 years, with a predominance of nurses (50%). Professionals from Luanda assisted an average of 61 patients per week while those from Benguela assisted 12. The average score on the three behavior subscales was high in both genders and provinces, with significantly higher values of emotional fatigue in women and greater personal fulfillment among professionals in Luanda. Burnout Syndrome was diagnosed in 9.3% of professionals in Luanda and 4.6% in Benguela, with no statistical differences found between women and men (6.2 vs 4.5) Conclusions Despite the low frequency of Burnout syndrome and the fact that there are high levels of exhaustion and depersonalization at the beginning of the pandemic, it leads to believe that there will be an increase in the number of cases of Burnout due to a greater demand for work, triggered by the worsening of the pandemic. This finding should be taken into account by health system managers to safeguard the well-being of their professionals and patients, namely Work shifts with shorter periods; Integration of more professionals in understaffed service teams; encouraging breaks throughout the day; Adequate food/ nutrients according to the time of day; creation of social support programs; encouragement to practice physical exercises and relaxation; monthly payment of COVID-19 epidemiological risk subsidies; Personal Protective Equipment; greater availability of drugs and materials for clinical monitoring of critically ill patients; presence of a physician specialized in intensive care in each work shift; as psychological support. Keywords: Burnout syndrome, health professionals, COVID-
根据世界卫生组织的说法,“职业倦怠综合症是由于工作场所的慢性压力而发生的”,包括身体和心理症状。当前的COVID-19大流行给世界各地的卫生专业人员造成了超负荷的工作,有时超出了他们的能力,甚至导致自杀。安哥拉是一个发展中国家,其卫生系统仍然脆弱,因此,这种流行病可能产生严重影响。3月登记了第一例COVID-19病例,其发病率逐渐增加。目的了解2020年5月至9月期间在安哥拉协助COVID-19疑似和确诊病例的卫生专业人员中职业倦怠综合征的患病率。对250名在治疗COVID-19疑似病例和确诊病例的卫生机构工作的专业人员(196人来自罗安达,54人来自本格拉)进行了一项观察性、描述性和横向研究。采用马斯拉奇倦怠量表(MBI-HSS),该量表包括情绪耗竭或疲劳、人格解体和个人成就感三个分量表。前两个的高水平和第三个的低水平表明了这种情况。同时获得了专业人员的社会人口学信息。结果60%的参与者为女性,平均年龄35岁,以护士为主(50%)。罗安达的专业人员每周平均援助61名病人,而本格拉的专业人员每周援助12名病人。三个行为子量表的平均得分在性别和省份中都很高,罗安达女性的情绪疲劳值显着更高,罗安达专业人员的个人成就感更高。疲劳综合症诊断在9.3%的专业人士在罗安达,4.6%发生在本格拉,发现男女之间没有统计学差异(6.2 vs 4.5)结论尽管低频疲劳综合症,有高水平的疲劳和人格解体开始流行,它会导致相信会有倦怠的病例数增加由于更大的工作需求,引发大流行的恶化。卫生系统管理人员应考虑到这一发现,以保障其专业人员和患者的福祉,即缩短轮班时间;在人手不足的服务队伍中整合更多专业人士;鼓励全天休息;根据一天的时间提供足够的食物/营养;创建社会支持项目;鼓励进行体育锻炼和放松;按月发放COVID-19流行病学风险补贴;个人防护装备;增加对危重病人进行临床监测的药物和材料的供应;每班有一名重症监护专科医生;作为心理支持。关键词:职业倦怠综合征,卫生专业人员,COVID-19,职业卫生,安哥拉

Introduction / background / objectives Temperature screening (with infrared thermometers) in workplaces has proven to be controversial, creating discussions between Occupational health services teams, assuming as a "requirement" from workers and/ or Employers. This article intends to analyze the evidence of such as strategy. Methodology This is a descriptive literature review. The search for scientific sources was carried out using the PUBMED (Medline) databases during the month of July 2021, without time limitation, in Portuguese or English, with keywords “temperature screening” and “Covid-19”. Content Skin temperature, rather than core temperature, can be influenced by several factors; infrared thermometers does not appear to be reliable enough to detect or exclude fever, and fever is not a characteristic symptom of all infected from Covid-19. Thus, this unreliable proxy does not provide evidence to support its implementation in workplaces as an evidence-based measure. This strategy appears to lend more accountability to marketing and placebo than to evidence, helping workers and Employers feel better, but not doing much and potentially getting worse, by conveying a false sense of security. Conclusions Each workplace can determine its own preferences, depending on its particular epidemiological context, and for this reason there is no “right answer” on how Companies should approach this matter - the evidence on this topic is incomplete and the challenges posed by the pandemic are changing; however, in order to delineate more informed decisions, if we are to achieve, as a country, a fast economic recovery, employers will have to stop betting on measures that require resources, but which are placebos. Keywords: temperature screening; Covid-19; Ocupacional Health.
工作场所的温度筛查(使用红外温度计)已被证明是有争议的,在职业卫生服务团队之间产生了讨论,假设这是工人和/或雇主的“要求”。本文拟对诸如战略等证据进行分析。这是一篇描述性文献综述。科学资料检索于2021年7月在PUBMED (Medline)数据库中进行,没有时间限制,检索语言为葡萄牙语或英语,关键词为“温度筛查”和“Covid-19”。皮肤温度,而不是核心温度,可以受到几个因素的影响;红外温度计似乎不足以可靠地检测或排除发烧,发烧并不是所有Covid-19感染者的特征症状。因此,这种不可靠的代理并没有提供证据来支持它作为一种基于证据的措施在工作场所的实施。这种策略似乎把更多的责任交给了营销和安慰剂,而不是证据,帮助员工和雇主感觉更好,但没有多大作用,而且可能会变得更糟,因为它传递了一种虚假的安全感。每个工作场所都可以根据其特定的流行病学背景决定自己的偏好,因此,对于公司应该如何处理这一问题,没有“正确答案”——关于这一主题的证据不完整,大流行带来的挑战正在变化;然而,为了做出更明智的决定,如果我们作为一个国家要实现快速的经济复苏,雇主们将不得不停止在需要资源的措施上下注,但这些措施是安慰剂。关键词:温度筛选;Covid-19;Ocupacional健康。

Introduction Mobbing can significantly affected not only the mental and physical health of the working population, but also organizational health. Clinical Case Report This is a case report of a healthcare worker, 62 years old, working in a Hospital Centre. She attended to an Occupational Health consultation due to an anxious and/or panic crisis. In the assessment by Psychiatry, it was found that she was experiencing multiple labour conflicts. Professional burn-out symptoms were found, associated with anxiety and easy crying spells on a daily basis, particularly on days of work, as well as marked feelings of sadness related to it. She was medicated and was followed up at Liaison Psychiatry, and her clinical status was made known to Occupational Health through a medical report. Discussion/Conclusion: In the last decade, Mobbing has become a frequent form of problem reported in modern societies, showing serious effects both on workers' health and on the rate of absenteeism and staff turnover in companies. The report of this case is a warning to the existence of cases of Mobbing in a professional activity in which, due to the high level of health literacy, could not be expected. In addition, it reinforces the importance, which is sometimes mandatory for Occupational Health, of contacting the heads of workers to solve some conflicts that may eventually exist. Keywords: Mobbing; Harassment at work; Occupational Health.
围攻不仅会显著影响工作人群的身心健康,还会影响组织健康。临床病例报告这是一名62岁在医院中心工作的卫生保健工作者的病例报告。由于焦虑和/或恐慌危机,她参加了职业健康咨询。在精神病学的评估中,发现她经历了多次劳资冲突。研究发现,职业倦怠症状与每天的焦虑和容易哭泣有关,特别是在工作的日子里,以及与之相关的明显的悲伤情绪。她在联络精神病学处接受了药物治疗和随访,并通过一份医疗报告向职业卫生部门通报了她的临床状况。讨论/结论:在过去的十年中,打工族已经成为现代社会中常见的一种问题,对工人的健康以及公司的缺勤率和员工流动率都产生了严重影响。这一案件的报告是对在专业活动中存在围攻案件的一个警告,由于卫生知识水平高,在这种情况下是不可预期的。此外,它还强调了与工人负责人接触以解决最终可能存在的一些冲突的重要性,这有时是职业健康的强制性要求。关键词:侵扰;工作中的骚扰;职业健康。

Introduction Tree planting reduces noise pollution and consequently improve the quality of life, however, in Brazil there is little research on this topic, mainly related to the quantification and classification of vegetation in the health of workers. It is understood that the correct planning of afforestation at school is essential, as it makes the place attractive, with functional and aesthetic quality, adequate landscaping and favorable acoustic conditions. Thus, acoustic comfort can favor the teaching process, as it minimizes the educator's vocal effort. Given these considerations, this work exposes the need to obtain acoustic comfort in a school located in the central area of a city in the interior of the State of São Paulo, Brazil. Objective To measure the sound pressure levels in three environments in the school yard of a central school in a city in the interior of the state of São Paulo, Brazil; verify the existence of arboreal masses in the school yard and near the school under study and to find out if the tree mass contributes to the acoustic comfort of the school yard under study. Methodology The measurement of sound pressure levels was carried out in the school yard in October 2019, at 9:30 am within the three established points. The measurement followed ANSI S12.60 recommendations, using Instrutherm DEC-5050 sound meter equipment and compared with NBR 10.151 and NBR 10.152 Standards. At the three determined points, 30 measurements were performed at each point, spaced 10 seconds each, at each point, according to the manual for measurement and calculation of acoustic conditions. Measurements were taken at 1.2 m above ground and 1.5 m from walls. Results The school does not comply with NBR 10152, with sound pressure levels up to 88.9 dB (A), with regard to acoustic comfort, compromising the occupational health and quality of life of educators and the learning process of students. The lack of arboreal mass can significantly contribute to noise pollution and compensatory considerations of mitigating proposals in future studies to solve the acoustic problems that affect the lives of educators and students. Conclusion Environmental noise in the school yard is above acceptable limits, impacting acoustic quality and comfort, which can contribute to a process of auditory effort, which impairs the teaching process and quality of life, interfering with the health of educators and students. Therefore, it is essential to search for solutions to improve the acoustic quality of the environment, with a favorable acoustic landscape. The arboreal mass shows promise for acoustic comfort in the school environment, providing better health conditions for educators and students. Therefore, it is suggested as future studies: Propose the type of material for the architectural space so that the place has less noise; improve the positioning of the afforestation present at the site and Implement afforestation project as needed by the site.

Introduction Gas station attendants are exposed to loud sounds and chemical compounds, working in rotating shifts and inadequate postures. Objective Describe the prevalence of musculoskeletal symptoms which affects those workers and evaluate the quality of life at work, correlating them with hearing evaluation. Method A cross-sectional study, with a control group, with 15 participants without exposure and other 20 with exposition. The Nordic Questionnaire of Musculoskeletal Symptoms and the Quality-of-Life Questionnaire at Work, short version, were used for evaluations. The exams performed were Tone Limit Audiometry, Acoustic Immittance Measurements and Brainstem Auditory Evoked Potential. Results The prevalent symptoms in the exposed group were pain in neck/cervical spine and hip/lower members, and the lumbar region. Hearing alterations were observed in 30% of the gas station attendants. There was a correlation between age and quality of life at work. Conclusion It is believed that the pain found can be a consequence of prolonged standing posture and lack of physical activity; symptoms that could be minimized by the adoption of ergonomic measures. However, although some audiological exams presented alterations, they were not enough to interfere in the quality of life at work, that was satisfactory for the groups.

Introduction/framework/objectives Occupational Health services are sometimes provided to employers who hire migrant labor, in some cases from very distant regions, geographically and culturally. The life circumstances of these workers and socio/economic/cultural characteristics will certainly be very different from the generality of Portuguese employees. The aim of this review is to summarize what was most relevant was published in this context. Methodology This is a Bibliographic Review, initiated through a research carried out in September 2021, in the databases “CINALH plus with full text, Medline with full text, Database of Abstracts of Reviews of Effects, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, Cochrane Methodology Register, Nursing and Allied Health Collection: comprehensive, MedicLatina and RCAAP”. Contents In general, migrants are left with "3-D" jobs: "dirty, demanding and dangerous" and/or even "degrading"- that is, with worse working conditions; they have usually jobs that require fewer qualifications and have more risk factors. As a rule, they do not work in the education or administration sectors, but rather in agriculture, construction and industry. However, Migrant workers also generally present greater occupational risks, due to unsafe behavior, namely associated with the use of Personal Protective Equipment, especially in small and medium-sized companies; due to the lower cultural level, migrants generally have a lower perception of risk and worse security behaviors. The time that the migrant has been with the institution does not seem to influence the perception of risk; in turn, the length of stay in the country is already able to do so. It is also modulated by safety climate, leadership, workload, safety knowledge and training; as well as personality, attitude and previous experience (accidents, morbidity). It is possible that the COVID19 pandemic will allow employers and supervisory institutions to be more attentive to the improvement of some parameters in working conditions. Males seem to be less available to participate in health education and promotion activities, have worse knowledge at this level and greater acceptance of risk. However, female migrants seem to need more medical care but have less access, even with chronic pathology. Individuals with communication problems attend health services less often and have lower adherence to proposed therapies. The presence of an interpreter helps a lot, but it is not always possible. Discussion and Conclusions The development of an Occupational Health service that can adapt to the particularities of the assessed migrants will be more likely to have better efficiency and performance, bringing benefits to workers, managers and employers. In addition, these individuals generally accept worse working conditions more easily, tasks with higher risks and feel less need and/or capacity to demand their labor rights, so occupational acciden
引言/框架/目标有时向雇用移徙劳工的雇主提供职业健康服务,在某些情况下,这些移徙劳工在地理和文化上都来自非常遥远的地区。这些工人的生活环境和社会/经济/文化特征肯定会与葡萄牙雇员的一般情况大不相同。本综述的目的是总结在此背景下发表的最相关的内容。这是一篇文献综述,通过2021年9月开展的一项研究,在以下数据库中启动:“CINALH plus全文、Medline全文、效果评价摘要数据库、Cochrane对照试验中央注册库、Cochrane系统评价数据库、Cochrane方法学注册库、护理和联合健康Collection: comprehensive、MedicLatina和RCAAP”。总的来说,移徙者只能从事“3d”工作:“肮脏、苛刻和危险”和(或)甚至“有辱人格”的工作,即工作条件更差;他们通常从事的工作要求较少,但风险因素较多。一般来说,他们不在教育或行政部门工作,而是在农业、建筑和工业部门工作。然而,由于不安全行为,即与个人防护装备的使用有关,特别是在中小型公司,移徙工人通常也面临更大的职业风险;由于文化水平较低,移民普遍具有较低的风险感知和较差的安全行为。移民在该机构工作的时间似乎并不影响对风险的感知;反过来,在这个国家停留的时间已经能够做到这一点。它还受安全气候、领导、工作量、安全知识和培训的影响;以及性格、态度和以前的经历(事故、发病率)。2019冠状病毒病大流行可能会让雇主和监管机构更加关注工作条件中某些参数的改善。男性参与健康教育和促进活动的机会似乎较少,在这方面的知识更差,对风险的接受程度更高。然而,女性移徙者似乎需要更多的医疗服务,但获得的机会较少,即使患有慢性疾病。有沟通问题的人很少去卫生服务机构,对拟议疗法的依从性也较低。翻译的在场帮助很大,但并不总是可能的。发展适应被评估移民特殊性的职业卫生服务将更有可能具有更好的效率和绩效,为工人、管理者和雇主带来利益。此外,这些人通常更容易接受更恶劣的工作条件和风险更高的任务,并且觉得不需要和/或没有能力要求自己的劳动权利,因此职业事故和职业病也将更加普遍和/或严重。估计在葡萄牙工作的移徙者人数、他们的来源和其他社会人口特征,以及与职业健康各种参数的可能相关性,是有意义的。关键词:流动人口;职业健康;职业安全;

Introduction and objectives In the workplace context, there may be a multiplicity of psychosocial risks that interfere with the health and well-being of workers, influencing productivity, absenteeism, presenteeism, employee satisfaction and motivation. On the other hand, the coping strategies used, as well as individual and organizational resources, promote a better management of work stress. This study aims to assess the perception of psychosocial risks, health and coping of employees of an institution. Methods A descriptive, cross-sectional study was carried out, using instruments such as the Copenhagen Psychosocial Questionnaire - COPSOQ-II, Brief Symptom Inventory - BSI and Brief Cope. Results and discussion The general data indicate a greater risk in terms of work demands, with cognitive dimension and work pace being more prevalent. Furthermore, role conflict is perceived as a serious risk. Difficulties in the balance between family life and work are also highlighted, as well as the need to improve vertical trust, which is mutually established between management and employees. Regarding the organization and content of work, even though they are considered moderate risks, it is worth emphasizing the importance of factors such as influence on work and commitment, in promoting and maintaining job satisfaction. On the other hand, it is also important to take into account the resources that can work as protectors of the mental health of employees as positive points were identified the possibility of development, the meaning of work, predictability, rewards, transparency on paper, the quality of leadership, job satisfaction (although these two should be reinforced), support from colleagues, job security, horizontal trust, as well as the social community. Regarding to the symptoms, there are some situations that deserve an individualized intervention, in order to promote its stabilization and mitigate its consequences. Concerning the most used coping strategies, the results show greater resort to acceptance, active coping and planning, although these two are less relevant. Conclusion The data alerts to the need to intervene, resorting to measures centered on the individual, but also on the organization, to prevent, minimize and repair the damage arising from the psychosocial risks found, as well as to strengthen existing resources.

在工作场所,可能存在多种社会心理风险,干扰工人的健康和福祉,影响生产力、缺勤、出勤、员工满意度和积极性。另一方面,所使用的应对策略,以及个人和组织的资源,促进更好地管理工作压力。本研究旨在评估机构雇员对社会心理风险的认知、健康及应对。方法采用哥本哈根心理社会问卷(COPSOQ-II)、简短症状量表(BSI)和简短症状量表(Brief Cope)等工具进行描述性横断面研究。结果与讨论总体数据表明,在工作需求方面存在较大风险,认知维度和工作节奏更为普遍。此外,角色冲突被认为是一种严重的风险。在家庭生活和工作之间的平衡的困难,以及需要提高垂直信任,这是管理层和员工之间相互建立。关于工作的组织和内容,尽管它们被认为是中等风险,但值得强调的是,对工作和承诺的影响等因素在促进和保持工作满意度方面的重要性。另一方面,考虑到可以作为员工心理健康保护者的资源也很重要,因为确定了积极点:发展的可能性、工作的意义、可预测性、奖励、书面透明度、领导质量、工作满意度(尽管这两个方面应该加强)、同事的支持、工作保障、横向信任以及社会社区。关于症状,有些情况值得个体化干预,以促进其稳定并减轻其后果。关于最常用的应对策略,结果显示更多的是接受、积极应对和计划,尽管这两者的相关性较小。这些数据提醒我们需要采取干预措施,采取以个人和组织为中心的措施,预防、减少和修复所发现的社会心理风险造成的损害,并加强现有资源。关键词:社会心理风险;压力;审计;健康促进;强调预防;职业健康。

Obesidade e Capacidade de Trabalho. 肥胖和工作能力。
Pub Date : 2021-12-31 DOI: 10.31252/rpso.02.10.2021
Mónica Santos, A. Almeida, Catarina Lopes
Introduction / framework / objectives Work Capacity can be defined as the extent to which an employee is able, in the present, and possibly in the future, to perform their tasks, depending on their state of health and physical and mental capacities. Companies will be more competitive if they have healthier workers. The better the variables involved in Work Capacity are known, easier the Occupational Health will be managed. Methodology This is a Bibliographic Review, initiated through a search carried out in August 2021 in the databases “CINALH plus with full text, Medline with full text, Database of Abstracts of Reviews of Effects, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, Cochrane Methodology Register, Nursing and Allied Health Collection: comprehensive, MedicLatina and RCAAP”. Contents Overweight or Obese employees, on average, are absent from work more days per year. Obesity is associated with longer absenteeism and these, in turn, have a higher unemployment rate, due to the associated pathologies (musculoskeletal, cardiovascular and emotional). However, it should be noted that norms vary between countries and systems, so when absence from work due to illness is unpaid, it tends to be shorter than when it is, especially if at 100%. In older workers, Obesity doubles the risk of losing a job. Changes in Work Capacity may be justified by lower cardiovascular fitness, less response to physical demands and due to the comorbidities. This may be more prevalent in the lower socioeconomic strata and, in these, physical work is also more frequent, with less pay and less support for absence due to disability. Obesity and a high workload are associated with worse Work Capacity, possibly synergistically, through musculoskeletal and cardiovascular issues and/or changes in pulmonary function/symptoms, as intra-abdominal pressure increases. That is, individuals with a Body Mass Index greater than 30 have respiratory symptoms six times more likely. Discussion and Conclusions Although the bibliography on the subject is not abundant, there is reasonably consensual regarding the negative interaction between Excess Weight/Obesity and the Ability to Work; therefore, any measure that benefits the first situation will also benefit the second, with emphasis on Exercise and caloric restriction. However, the subject is sometimes not properly valued by workers or a part of them is not even receptive to approaching the subject, even becoming aggressive when a health professional tries to take this path. Keywords: obesity, overweight, work capacity, occupational health and occupational medicine.
工作能力可以定义为雇员在目前和可能在将来能够完成其任务的程度,这取决于他们的健康状况和身心能力。如果员工更健康,公司将更具竞争力。对工作能力所涉及的变量了解得越清楚,就越容易对职业健康进行管理。这是一篇文献综述,通过2021年8月在“CINALH plus全文、Medline全文、效果评价摘要数据库、Cochrane对照试验中央注册库、Cochrane系统评价数据库、Cochrane方法学注册库、护理和联合健康Collection: comprehensive、MedicLatina和RCAAP”数据库中进行的检索而启动。超重或肥胖员工平均每年缺勤天数更多。肥胖与旷工时间较长有关,而由于相关的疾病(肌肉骨骼、心血管和情绪),旷工又会导致更高的失业率。然而,应该指出的是,不同国家和制度之间的规范有所不同,因此,当因病缺勤无薪时,它往往比无薪缺勤时更短,特别是在100%缺勤的情况下。在老年员工中,肥胖会使失业的风险增加一倍。工作能力的变化可能是由于心血管健康降低,对身体需求的反应减少以及合并症。这可能在较低的社会经济阶层中更为普遍,在这些阶层中,体力工作也更频繁,工资更低,对因残疾缺勤的支持也更少。肥胖和高工作量与较差的工作能力有关,可能是协同作用,通过肌肉骨骼和心血管问题和/或肺功能/症状的变化,随着腹内压的增加。也就是说,身体质量指数大于30的人出现呼吸道症状的可能性是普通人的6倍。讨论与结论:虽然关于这一主题的参考文献并不丰富,但关于超重/肥胖与工作能力之间的负相互作用有合理的共识;因此,任何有利于第一种情况的措施也将有利于第二种情况,重点是运动和热量限制。然而,这个问题有时没有得到工人的适当重视,或者他们中的一部分人甚至不接受接近这个问题,甚至在卫生专业人员试图采取这一途径时变得咄咄逼人。关键词:肥胖、超重、劳动能力、职业卫生、职业医学。

Introduction and objectives In Portugal, one of the organizations operating in the pre-hospital emergency context is the Portuguese Red Cross. Working at this level is considered a risky activity, including exposure to high levels of stress, which may lead to the development of health problems. The main objectives of this study were describe the profile of these first responders considering health, work, coping and social support variables, explore age/gender differences, as well as the relationship between these variables. Methodology A cross-sectional study was conducted and the following instruments were used: General Health Questionnaire - 28, Posttraumatic Stress Disorder Checklist 5, Warr's Job-Related Affective Well-Being Scale, Brief COPE, and the Survey of Perceived Organizational Support. Results and Conclusions The results showed satisfactory levels of general health and psychological well-being, good levels of job satisfaction, and moderate levels of perceived social support. The coping strategies most used by these first responders were emotion-focused coping. The differences found and the relationships between the variables identified constitute important clues to be taken into account in the planning and implementation of actions and interventions with these populations. Optimizing the first responders' working conditions, providing support and promoting the development of skills will make a crucial contribution to their health and psychological well-being, which will be reflected in the quality of the support provided to the population. Keywords: first responders, occupational health, work, coping, social support, occupational or organizational psychology.
在葡萄牙,开展院前急救工作的组织之一是葡萄牙红十字会。这一级别的工作被认为是有风险的活动,包括承受高水平的压力,这可能导致健康问题的发展。本研究的主要目的是描述这些第一响应者的健康、工作、应对和社会支持变量的概况,探讨年龄/性别差异,以及这些变量之间的关系。方法采用横断面研究方法,使用了以下工具:一般健康问卷- 28,创伤后应激障碍检查表5,Warr工作相关情感幸福感量表,简要COPE和感知组织支持调查。结果与结论受访员工总体健康和心理健康状况良好,工作满意度良好,感知社会支持水平中等。这些第一反应者最常用的应对策略是情绪集中应对。所发现的差异和所查明的变量之间的关系构成了规划和执行针对这些人口的行动和干预措施时应考虑到的重要线索。优化急救人员的工作条件、提供支助和促进技能发展将对他们的健康和心理健康作出重要贡献,这将反映在向人口提供支助的质量上。关键词:急救人员,职业健康,工作,应对,社会支持,职业或组织心理学。

Introduction Healthcare workers are a group particularly sensitive to the flu virus, as they are potential receptors and transmitters of the virus, and their vaccination is a cornerstone of prevention in the hospital context. Objectives To find out what impact the COVID-19 pandemic had on the perception of risk of contracting an infection by the Influenza virus and on the motivation for vaccination against seasonal flu by healthcare workers at a Central Hospital. Methodology We used a quantitative methodology, observational, analytical, cross-sectional, carried out in a convenience sampling process. The sample obtained consists of 212 healthcare workers of both sexes, aged between 20 and 66 years. The data obtained were analyzed using the computer program Microsoft Excel. Results After processing and analyzing the data obtained, it was observed that the rate of adherence to vaccination has increased since 2013 (up to 50%) in the 2020-2021 vaccination season. A total of 212 individuals participated in the study, predominantly female (82,1%), aged between 36 and 50 years (38.7%), working at the institution for 1-5 years (23.6%) and without predominance of professional category. The majority of participants consider having a medium/low risk of contracting seasonal flu (60.4%). Sociodemographic characteristics had no influence on risk perception. The main motivation for vaccination against seasonal flu was the context of the COVID-19 pandemic (66,0%), especially in professionals who do not get vaccinated consistently. Only about 39% of participants get vaccinated annually, and the majority (80.7%) plan to be vaccinated in the future. Conclusions The pandemic context accentuated the adherence of healthcare workers to vaccination against seasonal flu, however the current numbers are still below the recommended for the hospital context. Additionally, the perception of the risk of contracting seasonal flu among healthcare workers remains too low, which probably justifies the low rate of adherence to vaccination. Therefore, it is important to continue implementing measures to increase the adherence of healthcare workers to vaccination against seasonal flu.

卫生保健工作者是对流感病毒特别敏感的群体,因为他们是流感病毒的潜在受体和传递者,他们的疫苗接种是医院预防流感的基石。目的了解2019冠状病毒病(COVID-19)大流行对某中心医院医护人员对流感病毒感染风险认知的影响,以及对季节性流感疫苗接种动机的影响。我们采用定量方法,观察,分析,横断面,在方便的抽样过程中进行。获得的样本包括212名男女卫生保健工作者,年龄在20至66岁之间。所得数据采用Microsoft Excel软件进行分析。结果对获得的数据进行处理和分析后发现,在2020-2021年接种季节,疫苗接种率自2013年以来有所提高(高达50%)。共有212人参与研究,以女性为主(82.1%),年龄在36 - 50岁之间(38.7%),在机构工作1-5年(23.6%),专业类别不占优势。大多数参与者认为感染季节性流感的风险为中/低(60.4%)。社会人口学特征对风险感知无影响。接种季节性流感疫苗的主要动机是在COVID-19大流行的背景下(66.0%),特别是在没有持续接种疫苗的专业人员中。只有约39%的参与者每年接种疫苗,大多数(80.7%)计划在未来接种疫苗。结论:大流行背景下加强了卫生保健工作者接种季节性流感疫苗的依从性,但目前的数字仍低于医院背景下的推荐数字。此外,卫生保健工作者对感染季节性流感风险的认识仍然太低,这可能是疫苗接种率低的原因。因此,重要的是继续采取措施,增加卫生保健工作者接种季节性流感疫苗的依从性。关键词:流感,疫苗接种,COVID-19,医护人员,大流行

Miguel","doi":"10.31252/rpso/11.12.2021","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.31252/rpso/11.12.2021","url":null,"abstract":"Introduction Healthcare workers are a group particularly sensitive to the flu virus, as they are potential receptors and transmitters of the virus, and their vaccination is a cornerstone of prevention in the hospital context. Objectives To find out what impact the COVID-19 pandemic had on the perception of risk of contracting an infection by the Influenza virus and on the motivation for vaccination against seasonal flu by healthcare workers at a Central Hospital. Methodology We used a quantitative methodology, observational, analytical, cross-sectional, carried out in a convenience sampling process. The sample obtained consists of 212 healthcare workers of both sexes, aged between 20 and 66 years. The data obtained were analyzed using the computer program Microsoft Excel. Results After processing and analyzing the data obtained, it was observed that the rate of adherence to vaccination has increased since 2013 (up to 50%) in the 2020-2021 vaccination season. A total of 212 individuals participated in the study, predominantly female (82,1%), aged between 36 and 50 years (38.7%), working at the institution for 1-5 years (23.6%) and without predominance of professional category. The majority of participants consider having a medium/low risk of contracting seasonal flu (60.4%). Sociodemographic characteristics had no influence on risk perception. The main motivation for vaccination against seasonal flu was the context of the COVID-19 pandemic (66,0%), especially in professionals who do not get vaccinated consistently. Only about 39% of participants get vaccinated annually, and the majority (80.7%) plan to be vaccinated in the future. Conclusions The pandemic context accentuated the adherence of healthcare workers to vaccination against seasonal flu, however the current numbers are still below the recommended for the hospital context. Additionally, the perception of the risk of contracting seasonal flu among healthcare workers remains too low, which probably justifies the low rate of adherence to vaccination. Therefore, it is important to continue implementing measures to increase the adherence of healthcare workers to vaccination against seasonal flu.
