Abstract(s)
Este trabalho de investigação foi realizado no âmbito da Unidade Curricular (UC) “Projeto de Graduação”, do 4º ano do Curso de Licenciatura em Enfermagem da Faculdade de Ciências da Saúde (FCS) da Universidade Fernando Pessoa (UFP), no ano letivo 2019/2020, e visou colocar em práticas os conhecimentos adquiridos na UC de Métodos e Técnicas de Investigação e permitir um primeiro contacto com a implementação do processo de investigação.
Este projeto teve como tema a ansiedade, stress e sintomas depressivos nos enfermeiros do serviço de urgência e o objetivo consistiu em avaliar quais os níveis de stress, ansiedade e sintomas depressivos dos enfermeiros de serviços de urgência com recurso às Escalas de Ansiedade Depressão e Stress de 21 itens (EADS-21).
Quanto ao desenho da investigação , tratou-se de um estudo descritivo-exploratório, assente num paradigma quantitativo, com recurso a uma técnica de amostragem em bola de neve, acedendo-se aos potenciais participantes por e-mail, tendo-lhes sido enviado um questionário criado no Google Forms, e a análise estatística de dados foi realizada com recurso ao IBM SPSS versão 25.0.
Os resultados apontaram para que, numa amostra de 42 enfermeiros de serviços de urgência, 33 apresentavam sintomas depressivos dentro dos padrões de normalidade, dois apresentavam sintomas depressivos ligeiros, seis apresentavam sintomas depressivos moderados, e um apresentava sintomas depressivos graves.
No que diz respeito ao nível de ansiedade, concluiu-se que 27 apresentavam sintomas de ansiedade dentro dos padrões de normalidade, seis apresentavam sintomas de ansiedade ligeira, três apresentavam sintomas de ansiedade moderada, quatro apresentavam sintomas de ansiedade grave, e dois apresentavam sintomas de ansiedade muito grave.
Para finalizar, quanto ao nível de stress nos enfermeiros, concluiu-se que 31 apresentavam sintomas de stress dentro dos padrões de normalidade, cinco apresentavam sintomas de stress ligeiros, e seis apresentavam sintomas de stress moderados. Face a estes resultados parece importante prestar particular atenção a estes sintomas, eventualmente criar programas de promoção da saúde mental que possam ajudar estes enfermeiros a gerir melhor as suas emoções, criar mecanismos que permitam a deteção precoce de sintomas patológicos e, acima de tudo, tentar perceber quais são as causas laborais que podem estar por detrás destes sintomas, para que posteriormente seja possível otimizar os locais de trabalho de modo a permitir uma melhor saúde mental dos enfermeiros que, dizem os estudos, se traduz também em menos erros, no aumento da segurança do utente, e na melhoria dos cuidados prestados.
This research work is carried out within the scope of the Curricular Unit (UC) "Graduation Project", of the 4th year of the Nursing Degree Course at FCS-UFP, in the academic year 19/20 and aims to put into practice the knowledge acquired at UC MTI and allow a first contact with the implementation of the investigation process. This project has the theme "Anxiety, Stress and Depressive Symptoms in Nurses in the Emergency Department" and the objective is to know what the levels of stress, anxiety and depressive symptoms in nurses in the emergency department were made possible through the instrument used. which was EADS-2. The levels of stress, anxiety and depressive symptoms and after a recoding of the variables proposed by Lovibond and Lovibond (1995), classifying the levels: of depressive symptoms in normal, mild moderate and severe; stress levels in normal, mild and moderate; anxiety levels in normal, mild, moderate, severe and very severe. Thus, it can be concluded that, in a sample of 42 nurses in the emergency department, 33 have depressive symptoms within the normal range, two have mild depressive symptoms, six have moderate depressive symptoms, and one has severe depressive symptoms. With regard to the level of anxiety, it can be concluded that 27 have symptoms of anxiety within the normal range, six have symptoms of mild anxiety, three have symptoms of moderate anxiety, four have symptoms of severe anxiety, and two have symptoms of very severe anxiety serious. Finally, regarding the level of stress in nurses, it can be concluded that 31 have symptoms of stress within the normal range, five have symptoms of mild stress and six have symptoms of moderate stress. Facing these results seems important to pay special attention to these symptoms, to create mental health promotion programs that can help these nurses to use the best emotions, to create mechanisms that allow the early detection of pathological symptoms and, above all, to try to understand what they are. the causes that affect workers, who may be harming these symptoms, so that later it is possible to optimize the workplaces in order to allow better mental health for nurses, which, case studies, also translate into fewer errors, without increasing user safety, and improving the care provided.
