Estressores percebidos por pacientes no pós-operatório imediato de cirurgia cardíaca

Abstract: Objective: to investigate stressors perceived by patients in the immediate postoperative of cardiac surgery and their association with sociodemographic and clinical characteristics. Method: a prospective correlational study conducted in a city in São Paulo, between August 2013 and December 2014. A non-probabilistic sample included patients submitted to their fi rst coronary artery bypass graft or mitral valve surgery. The "Environmental Stressor Questionnaire" adapted to Portuguese was used. Results: 105 patie… Show more

“…20 This group of patients classified thirst as the most significant stressor of 50 evaluated factors. 10 Preoperative fasting is one variable evaluated in this study; it is important to prevent pulmonary aspiration of the gastric contents after the loss of airway protective reflexes due to anesthetic drugs. 21,22 Pulmonary aspiration is a complication feared by the surgical team which may explain the long fasting time usually practiced.…”

“…[7][8][9] Thirst is considered one of the greatest stressors for patients during the IPO. 10 In an attempt to describe the amount of discomfort it causes in this period, patients use figurative speech, comparing themselves to 'a camel crossing the desert' or verbalizing that they have 'the sensation of having ingested a tube of glue.' In addition, the sensations described by the surgical patient when faced with no prospect of quenching their thirst due to the mandatory fasting in the surgical period are of despair even including thoughts of death.…”

“…In the perioperative period, patients are exposed to several factors predisposing to the thirst symptom, such as prolonged preoperative fasting, anesthetic-surgical medications, orotracheal intubation and blood loss (1)(2)(3)(4) . When the confluence of these factors are added to anxiety, irritability, stress and fear of anesthesia and surgery (2,(4)(5) , it results in thirst being one of the most distressing aspects for the patient.…”

“…In our study, a good cognitive situation was verified and this is an indication that these patients have potential to receive orientations and to execute the physical therapy techniques, helping in their postoperative improvement. Other studies (1)(2)(3)(4)(5)(6)(7)(8)(9)(10)(11)(12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17) indicate that physical therapy integrates patient care with indication of cardiac surgery, both in the pre-and postoperative periods, using active and educative techniques in collaborative patients.…”
