Resumo: | This study aims to verify the sources of noise in a Neonatal Intensive Care Unitand the strategies adopted by the professionals to control and reduce it, before the implementation of an educational program. It was a qualitative investigation carried out at a NICU of a University Hospital in the municipality of São Paulo. 101 health professionals took part in the research. The results indicated that the majority of the professionals involved were nursing assistants or nursing technicians (35.6%), and doctors (27.7%) with an average age of 32.2 years; 7.9 years of professional experience and an average of 5.8 years working experience at a NICU. The unit was considered as very noisy (44.9%) at a relatively uncomfortable level (41.2%). The main sources of noise mentioned were: equipment alarms (75.8%), conversations between professionals (60.0%) and exchanges between them (18.9%).The mostimportant noise reduction strategiesoutlined were:whispering(61.5%),using caution when manipulating the incubator(36.5%), trying not to make unnecessary noise (30.2%), and paying attention to alarms (25.0%). The results pointed to the necessity of training the medical and nursing staff about noise prevention and control and to the reorganization of care practices in general and neonatal care in particular. |

Se trata de una investigación cuantitativa realizada en la UTIN de un hospital Universitario de la municipalidad de San Pablo con 101 profesionales de la salud. La mayoría de los profesionales eran auxiliares o técnicos de enfermería (35,6%) y médicos (27,7%) con edad promedio de 33,2 años, tiempo de formación profesional de 7,9 años y tiempo de trabajo en la UTIN de 5,8 años. La unidad fue considerada como muy ruidosa (44,9%) y relativamente incómoda (41,2%). Las principales fuentes de ruido apuntadas por los sujetos fueron: alarma de los equipos (75,8%), conversación entre los profesionales (60,0%) e interacción entre los mismos (18,9%). Las estrategias de reducción de ruido más citadas fueron: hablar en voz baja (61,5%), cuidado con la manipulación de la incubadora (36,5%), cuidado para no provocar ruido (30,2%) y prestar atención a las alarmas (25,0%). Los resultados indicaron la necesidad de capacitar al equipo para prevenir el ruido y reorganizar las prácticas asistenciales y la estructura física de la unidad neonatal.Objetivou-se, com esta pesquisa, verificar as fontes de ruído e as estratégias adotadas pelos profissionais de uma Unidade de Terapia Intensiva Neonatal (UTIN), antes de um programa educativo.Trata-se de uma pesquisa quantitativa, realizada em uma UTIN de um hospital-escola do Município de São Paulo, com 101 profissionais.

A unidade foi considerada muito ruidosa (44,9%), uma vez que incomoda mais ou menos (41,2%). As principais fontes de ruído apontadas pelos sujeitos foram: alarme dos equipamentos (75,8%), conversa entre os profissionais (60,0%) e a interação entre eles (18,9%). As estratégias de redução do ruído mais citadas foram: falar baixo (61,5%), cuidado na manipulação da incubadora (36,5%), cuidado em não provocar ruído (30,2%) e atentar para os alarmes (25,0%). Resultados apontam para a necessidade de capacitação da equipe quanto à prevenção de ruído e à reorganização das práticas assistenciais e da estrutura física da unidade neonatal.Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais2011-06-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersiontext/plainapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufmg.br/index.php/reme/article/view/50398REME-Revista Mineira de Enfermagem; Vol. 15 No. 2 (2011)REME-Revista Mineira de Enfermagem; Vol. 15 Núm. 2 (2011)REME-Revista Mineira de Enfermagem; v. 15 n. 2 (2011)2316-93891415-2762reponame:Reme (Online)instname:Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais (UFMG)instacron:UFMGporhttps://periodicos.ufmg.br/index.php/reme/article/view/50398/41969https://periodicos.ufmg.br/index.php/reme/article/view/50398/41970Copyright (c) 2011 Reme: Revista Mineira de Enfermageminfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessDaniele, DanielaPinheiro, Eliana MoreiraKakehashi, Tereza YoshikoBalbino, Flavia SimphronioBalieiro, Maria Magda Ferreira Gomes2024-01-24T16:07:27Zoai:periodicos.ufmg.br:article/50398Revistaremeufmg@gmail.comPUBhttps://periodicos.ufmg.br/index.php/reme/oairemeufmg@gmail.com2316-93891415-2762opendoar:2024-01-24T16:07:27Reme (Online) - Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais (UFMG)false |
