“…Todo processo aconteceu entre outubro de 2018 a dezembro de 2019. A técnica de GF foi escolhida para descrever a experiência da pesquisa, por possibilitar o diálogo e a abertura ao outro a partir de encontros em grupo (Tong;Sainsbury;Craig, 2007;Corrêa;Oliveira;.…”

Este estudo objetivou compreender o significado da construção coletiva de grupos de ajuda mútua envolvendo familiares/cuidadoras de pessoas com Alzheimer. Realizado em duas etapas, uma de intervenção e outra de pesquisa, contou com a participação ativa de doze integrantes de grupos de ajuda mútua, implantados na comunidade. A possibilidade de fazer “com” trouxe novos significados para a vida destas cuidadoras, especialmente relacionados ao modelo social e cultural de dependência, hierarquia e autoritarismo presente nos espaços de saúde.

“…Additionally, thyroid hormones and electrolytes, including potassium, magnesium, and calcium, should be monitored regularly and corrected in the case of abnormalities. There are several formulas used for QTc interval calculations, including the Bazett, Fridericia, and Framingham calculators [ 91 , 93 , 94 , 95 ]. None of them have shown to be superior over the other.…”

Kinase inhibitors (KIs) represent a growing class of drugs directed at various protein kinases and used in the treatment of both solid tumors and hematologic malignancies. It is a heterogeneous group of compounds that are widely applied not only in different types of tumors but also in tumors that are positive for a specific predictive factor. This review summarizes common cardiotoxic effects of KIs, including hypertension, arrhythmias with bradycardia and QTc prolongation, and cardiomyopathy that can lead to heart failure, as well as less common effects such as fluid retention, ischemic heart disease, and elevated risk of thromboembolic events. The guidelines for cardiac monitoring and management of the most common cardiotoxic effects of protein KIs are discussed. Potential signaling pathways affected by KIs and likely contributing to cardiac damage are also described. Finally, the need for further research into the molecular mechanisms underlying the cardiovascular toxicity of these drugs is indicated.
