Objetivo: Analisar o diagnóstico e o tratamento da endometriose através de uma revisão de literatura. Métodos: Trata-sede uma revisão bibliográfica de caráter exploratório, descritivo, sobre o diagnóstico e tratamento da Endometriose. A busca ocorreu nas bases de dados LILACS, MEDLINE SCIELO e BVS. Os artigos selecionados foram agrupados em quatro categorias: a) Etiopatogenia; b) Sintomatologia; c) Diagnóstico; d) Tratamento.Resultados: A literatura aponta que existem diversas teorias que tentam explicar as causas da endometriose, entretanto a sua etiopatogenia ainda não está bem estabelecida.Em relação ao quadro clínico, os sintomas são muito variados, sendo que entre3 a 22% dos casos, as pacientes são assintomáticas, favorecendo o diagnóstico tardio da endometriose. Em relação ao tratamento, os mais utilizados são os medicamentosos, os cirúrgicos ou a combinação de ambos. Conclusão:A endometriose caracteriza-se como uma doença enigmática, com quadro clínico variado e de etiologia ainda desconhecida, o que dificulta o processo de diagnóstico e torna os tratamentos pouco eficientes.

RESUMOObjetivo: Destacar a vulnerabilidade a ideações e práticas suicidas em idosos e o impacto familiar e social.Métodos: O estudo trata de uma revisão bibliográfica de caráter exploratório, descritivo, realizado por meio de revisão sistemática, realizado no -LILACS, MEDLINE e Base de Dados de Enfermagem-BDENF e Index Psicologia -Periódicos técnico-científicos, a partir dos descritores: suicídio, idoso, família. Após aplicar os critérios de inclusão e exclusão foram selecionados 22 artigos que passaram por uma leitura criteriosa para o desenvolvimento do estudo. Resultados: O número elevado de suicídio no sexo masculino na terceira idade, assim como nas outras faixas etárias, é maior devido aos meios mais eficazes utilizados por eles para cometer o suicídio. Aparecem como fatores associados ao suicídio em idosos a sobrecarga financeira, abusos e desqualificações, e ainda a perca de parentes próximos, transtornos psicológicos, isolamento social, conflitos conjugais, desemprego, doença e deficiência, bem como, casos de suicídio na família. Considerações finais: A partir dos conhecimentos produzidos observa-se que a grande quantidade de motivos e razões apresentados para explicar as tentativas de suicídio de idosos, mostra que nunca é apenas uma causa que os leva a este ato, ou seja, o suicídio é um problema multicausal, necessitando de maior apoio familiar e preparo dos profissionais de saúde.Descritores: Suicídio, Idoso, Família. ABSTRACTObjective: To highlight the vulnerability to suicidal ideation and practices in the elderly and to the family and social impact. Methods: The study is an exploratory, descriptive bibliographical review, performed through a systematic review, conducted in the LILACS, MEDLINE and Nursing Data-BDENF and Index Psychology -Technical-scientific journals, from the descriptors: suicide, elderly, family. After applying the inclusion and exclusion criteria, we selected 22 articles that went through a careful reading for the development of the study. Results: The high number of male suicide in the elderly, as well as in other age groups, is greater due to the more effective means used by them to commit suicide. The financial burden, abuses and disqualifications, as well as the loss of close relatives, psychological disturbances, social isolation, marital conflicts, unemployment, illness and disability, as well as cases of suicide in the family, appear as factors associated with suicide in the elderly. Final considerations: Based on the knowledge produced, it is observed that the great number of reasons and reasons presented to explain the suicide attempts of the elderly, shows that it is never just a cause that leads them to this act, that is, suicide is a multicausal problem, requiring greater family support and training of health professionals.

Methods:Cross-sectional study, descriptive-exploratory, of quantitative approach, with non-probabilistic samples of accidental type with 80 families of psychiatric patients held in a Psychosocial Care Center. For overload evaluation, the subscales "B" and "D" of the Family Overload Rating Scale (FBIS-BR) were used. Results:The study was conducted with 80 families of psychiatric patients. The average age of female caregivers was 39.6 years old, and IntroductionUntil the mid-twentieth century, psychiatry offered the people suffering from mental disorders inhuman and inefficient care, which caused more damage than healing to mental health. Admissions were held for long periods with treatment similar to torture methods. In this context, the psychiatric patients could spend the rest of their lives in treatment in mental institutions [1].The mental health care in these asylums was focused on practice and medical knowledge, whose assistance was restricted to admission and medication to combat the symptoms evidenced by psychiatric patients, excluding them of the bond, interactions and all that configured it as part and product of their knowledge [2].The reality of asylums lasted until the process of deinstitutionalization of mental health, which took place in Brazil through the Psychiatric Reform which was characterized as a historical movement of political, social and economic character, which involved since breaking the practiced model to the nursing care excluding the model based on admission of psychiatric patients in mental hospitals [3].In the current model of mental health assistance, the family is entered as partner in the psychosocial rehabilitation process of person with psychiatric disorder, and can contribute to the effectiveness and efficaciousness of substitute services as also responsible for the treatment [4].The process of change in the manner of treating the psychiatric patient, keeping the person with disorder within the family, is accompanied by the emergence of family burden factors, as we note that the family would not be prepared to accept mental disorders affected people [5]. Overloading of the family is defined as the feeling of weight caused by the constant provision of care to psychiatric patients and the difficulties encountered in the role of caregiver's performance in everyday [6].Family members of mentally ill need care or assistance in relation to their own health and that of their hospitalized family member. This fact causes concern to the extent that the health system in 40.7 years old for male caregivers, with female predominance (87.5%) compared to men (12.5%), with low education for both genres.
