Abstract(s)
A investigação desempenha um papel importante no estabelecimento de uma prática de cuidados mais eficaz e sustentável. O objetivo da investigação em enfermagem diz respeito ao estudo de fenómenos que levam à descoberta e ao crescimento de saberes próprios da disciplina.
Com o intuito de finalizar a Licenciatura em Enfermagem da Universidade Fernando Pessoa, foi proposto a realização de um trabalho de investigação e escolhido como tema “Intervenções Breves no Consumo de Álcool em Estudantes Universitários”.
O consumo de bebidas alcoólicas traduz-se num grave problema que tem vindo a evoluir drasticamente ao longo dos tempos, afetando a sociedade portuguesa na sua globalidade.
Apontam-se várias causas responsáveis pelo aumento do consumo de álcool pelos adolescentes, não só devido ao seu estilo de vida atual, mas igualmente pelos fenómenos de socialização, pelo enraizamento das tradições culturais, pela divulgação publicitária e pelos atrativos dos próprios locais de consumo.
Os Problemas Ligados ao Álcool, constituem um importante problema de Saúde Pública e interferem com inúmeros aspetos da vida do indivíduo, desde os problemas de saúde individual e familiar, até ao nível laboral e social sendo causa frequente de problemas judiciais.
A entrada para a universidade é um período de mudança para um jovem adulto. A conquista de mais autonomia, o assumir responsabilidades e muitas vezes sair do abrigo dos pais para viverem sozinhos, causa mudanças nos estilos de vidas dos universitários. Por vezes a entrada no mundo académico abre as portas para a adoção de comportamentos menos saudáveis. Nomeadamente para o início ou aumento dos consumos de álcool.
A componente teórica deste trabalho é resultado de uma ampla pesquisa bibliográfica sobre a temática em estudo e desta forma expomos pontos fundamentais para a compreensão do problema em estudo.
A Educação para a saúde tem como função promover estilos de vida saudáveis. Tendo o enfermeiro um lugar privilegiado junto da população, possuindo um importante papel na prevenção do álcool.
Por sua vez os professores da licenciatura também têm um papel extremamente importante na educação para a saúde em meio universitário, cabendo a eles abordarem temáticas problemáticas como a do álcool, e consciencializarem os estudantes para os perigos que pode encontrar durante este período de mudança nesta etapa da vida que é a entrada na universidade.
Com este estudo pretendeu-se avaliar o consumo de álcool nos Estudantes Universitários de uma Instituição Privada do Norte do País e analisar a aderência dos próprios Estudantes à uma Intervenção Breve.
Verificou-se uma predominância de alunos do género feminino (73%) relativamente ao género masculino (27%). No que concerne à distribuição dos indivíduos por idade, verifica-se que a faixa etária em predomínio se encontra entre os 20 e 22 anos, sendo que neste estudo predominam os indivíduos com 21 anos (21%).
Os resultados indicam que o consumo de álcool ainda é uma prática comum em universitários, o que está de acordo com estudos anteriores.
Conclui-se que com este estudo, em concordância com o resultado obtido por cada um dos alunos da nossa amostra numa 2ª avaliação em comparação com a 1ª avaliação, que após a aderência à IB por parte de alguns alunos houve redução no consumo de álcool o que fez com que todos os alunos que aderiram (100%) se situassem todos na Zona de Risco Nível I de Consumo de Álcool (score 0 a 7).
Research plays an important role in establishing a more effective and sustainable care practice. The objective of research in nursing concerns the study of phenomena that lead to the discovery and growth of knowledge specific to the discipline. In order to complete the Degree in Nursing at the University Fernando Pessoa, a research work was proposed and chosen as the theme “Brief Interventions in the Consumption of Alcohol in University Students”. The consumption of alcoholic beverages is a serious problem that has evolved drastically over time, affecting Portuguese society as a whole. There are several causes responsible for the increase in alcohol consumption by adolescents, not only due to their current lifestyle, but also due to the phenomena of socialization, the entrenchment of cultural traditions, publicity and the attractions of the places of consumption themselves. Problems Related to Alcohol, constitute an important public health problem and interfere with numerous aspects of the individual's life, from individual and family health problems, to the work and social level, being a frequent cause of legal problems. Entrance to university is a period of change for a young adult. The achievement of more autonomy, taking on responsibilities and often leaving their parents' shelter to live alone, causes changes in the lifestyles of university students. Sometimes entering the academic world opens the door to adopting less healthy behaviors. Namely for the start or increase of alcohol consumption. The theoretical component of this work is the result of an extensive bibliographical research on the subject under study and, in this way, we expose fundamental points for the understanding of the problem under study. In this sense, we build the problematic of the present study defined with the starting question: "Did the entrance to the University influence the alcohol consumption in the students?" Health education aims to promote healthy lifestyles. Nurses have a privileged place among the population, having an important role in alcohol prevention. In turn, the teachers of the degree also have an extremely important role in health education in the university environment, it is up to them to address problematic issues such as alcohol, and make students aware of the dangers they may encounter during this period of change at this stage. of the life that is the entrance to the university. The aim of this study was to evaluate the consumption of alcohol in University Students of a Private Institution in the North of the Country and to analyze the adherence of the students themselves to a Brief Intervention. There was a predominance of female students (73%) compared to male students (27%). With regard to the distribution of individuals by age, it appears that the predominant age group is between 20 and 22 years, and in this study, individuals aged 21 (21%) predominate. The results indicate that alcohol consumption is still a common practice among university students, which is in agreement with previous studies. It is concluded that with this study, in agreement with result obtained by each of the students in our sample in a 2nd assessment compared to the 1st assessment, that after adherence to the BI by some students, there was a reduction in alcohol consumption. which made all students who adhered (100%) to be placed in the Level I Risk Zone of Alcohol Consumption (score 0 to 7).
