Abstract(s)
O cancro da laringe atinge milhares de pessoas em todo o mundo e a laringectomia é,
muitas vezes, a única solução para salvar a vida do doente. Este ato cirúrgico acarreta
imensas alterações na vida destes indivíduos quer a nível familiar, ocupacional, vocal,
respiratório, olfativo e do paladar, assim como dificuldades na deglutição, disfunções
psicológicas e sociais.
Este estudo tem como objetivo analisar as limitações comunicativas dos doentes
laringectomizados acompanhados por Terapia da Fala em 2016, no serviço de
Otorrinolaringologia do Centro Hospitalar do Porto – Hospital de Santo António, no
qual participaram 17 pacientes.
A recolha de dados foi realizada através de três questionários, o SECEL, o CAPAL e o
questionário de caraterização do paciente. Os resultados revelaram que a idade média
desta patologia são os 60 anos de idade e que os níveis de analfabetismo são muito
elevados.
Foram descritos os vários meios de comunicação utilizados por estes doentes e foi
comprovado que a Fala Murmurada é o meio comunicativo mais comum, o que dificulta
mais a perceção da mensagem pelos recetores.
A voz é descrita como o fator mais importante para a qualidade de vida destes doentes
e, tendo em conta as suas dificuldades a este nível, foram explorados outros contextos
de comunicação, para as quais também ainda existem barreiras como por exemplo o
falar ao telefone e falar em locais ruidosos, que deverão ser ultrapassadas com a ajuda
de profissionais, familiares, amigos e a sociedade em geral.
Assim, com esta investigação foi possível reconhecer melhor essas barreiras inerentes
ao processo comunicativo e alertar para uma intervenção mais eficaz por parte dos
profissionais e adaptações da comunidade em geral.
Laryngeal cancer is a collection of thousands of people around the world and a laryngectomy is often a unique solution to save the patient's life. This surgical act brings immense points to the life of patients who want a familiar, occupational, vocal, respiratory, olfactory and palate level, as well as difficulties in swallowing, psychological and social dysfunctions. This study aims to analyze the communicative limitations of laryngectomized patients accompanied by Speech Therapy in 2016, at the Otorhinolaryngology Service of the Hospital Center of Porto - Santo António Hospital, in which 17 patients participated. Data were collected through three questionnaires, the SECEL, CAPAL and the patient characterization questionnaire. The results revealed that the average age of this condition is 60 years of age and that illiteracy levels are very high. The various means of communication used by these patients has been described and it has been proven that the Murmured Speech is the most common communication medium, which makes it more difficult for the receivers to perceive the message. Voice is described as the most important factor for the quality of life of these patients and, in view of their difficulties at this level, other communication contexts have been explored, for which there are also barriers such as talking on the phone and Talk in noisy places, which should be overcome with the help of professionals, family, friends and society in general. Thus, with this research, it was possible to better recognize these barriers inherent to the communicative process and to alert to a more effective intervention on the part of the professionals and adaptations of the community in general.
