Resumo: | Introduction: The COVID-19 disease caused a pandemic, generating an overload on health services, especially in hospital institutions, due to the need for hospitalization of infected patients. Among health professionals, the occupational therapists have contributed to coping with the disease. Objective: To verify the performance of occupational therapists in hospital contexts in the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic. Method: This is a cross-sectional, exploratory, descriptive study with a quantitative approach. The research was developed using Google Forms®, with data collection through a questionnaire with open and closed questions, with occupational therapists working in hospital care as participants. Data were described and statistically analyzed using Statistica 9.1 software and Fisher's exact test. Results: 36 occupational therapists participated, of which 23 treated patients with COVID-19 (63.9%). Of the participants, 75% responded that they modified their intervention with the onset of the pandemic and 91.7% considered their role fundamental during this period. The percentage of therapists who consider their performance as an occupational therapist fundamental during the pandemic in the group that worked with patients with COVID-19 (p=0.040) is significantly higher compared to the group that did not work with patients with COVID-19 (76. 9%). In caring for patients with COVID-19, most occupational therapists responded that their role was specific to the scope of their profession (86.9%) and important in combating the disease (60.8%). Conclusion: The results bring enlightening data about the interventions of occupational therapists, leading to critical-reflective discussions about the need to appropriate a new practice in a hospital context. |

Dentre os profissionais da saúde, o terapeuta ocupacional tem contribuído para o enfrentamento da doença. Objetivo: Verificar a atuação dos terapeutas ocupacionais em contextos hospitalares no primeiro ano da pandemia pela COVID-19. Método: Trata-se de um estudo transversal, exploratório, descritivo e de abordagem quantitativa. A pesquisa foi desenvolvida utilizando-se o Google Forms®, com coleta dos dados por meio de questionário com perguntas abertas e fechadas, tendo como participantes terapeutas ocupacionais atuantes na assistência em contextos hospitalares. Os dados foram descritos e analisados estatisticamente por meio do software Statistica 9.1 e do teste Exato de Fisher. Resultados: Participaram 36 terapeutas ocupacionais, destes, 23 atenderam pacientes com COVID-19 (63,9%). Dos participantes, 75% responderam que modificaram sua intervenção com o início da pandemia e 91,7% consideraram sua atuação fundamental nesse período. O percentual de terapeutas que considera a sua atuação como terapeuta ocupacional fundamental durante a pandemia no grupo que trabalhou com pacientes com COVID-19 (p=0,040) é significativamente maior em relação ao grupo que não trabalhou com pacientes com COVID-19 (76,9%). Na atenção ao paciente com COVID-19, a maioria dos terapeutas ocupacionais respondeu que sua atuação era específica do escopo da profissão (86,9%) e importante no combate à doença (60,8%). Conclusão: Os resultados trazem dados esclarecedores sobre as intervenções de terapeutas ocupacionais, levando a discussões crítico-reflexivas sobre a necessidade de se apropriar de uma nova prática em contexto hospitalar.Brazilian Journal of Occupational TherapyCuadernos Brasilenos de Terapia OcupacionalCadernos Brasileiros de Terapia Ocupacional2023-09-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttps://www.cadernosdeterapiaocupacional.ufscar.br/index.php/cadernos/article/view/336410.1590/2526-8910.ctoAO257433641 Brazilian Journal of Occupational Therapy; Vol. 31 (2023); e3364Cuadernos Brasilenos de Terapia Ocupacional; Vol. 31 (2023); e3364Cadernos Brasileiros de Terapia Ocupacional; v. 31 (2023); e33642526-8910reponame:Cadernos Brasileiros de Terapia Ocupacionalinstname:Universidade Federal de São Carlos (UFSCAR-DTO)instacron:UFSCARporenghttps://www.cadernosdeterapiaocupacional.ufscar.br/index.php/cadernos/article/view/3364/3850https://www.cadernosdeterapiaocupacional.ufscar.br/index.php/cadernos/article/view/3364/3851Copyright (c) 2023 Cadernos Brasileiros de Terapia Ocupacionalhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessJoaquim, Regina Helena Vitale TorkomianSouza, Lucas Ramon Santos de Sousa , Danielle Ferreira deBeltrame, Vitória HoerbeBuin, Luciana Bragança de Moraes , Anaelena2023-07-31T11:17:24Zoai:ojs.www.cadernosdeterapiaocupacional.ufscar.br:article/3364Revistahttp://www.cadernosdeterapiaocupacional.ufscar.br/index.php/cadernos/indexPUBhttps://old.scielo.br/oai/scielo-oai.phpcadto@ufscar.br||cadto@ufscar.br2526-89102526-8910opendoar:2023-07-31T11:17:24Cadernos Brasileiros de Terapia Ocupacional - Universidade Federal de São Carlos (UFSCAR-DTO)false |
