Abstract

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Pain management by the multidisciplinary team remains a challenge in the health field. The aim of this study was to analyze the impact of educational strategies for the implementation of pain as the fifth vital sign and its management in a highly complex hospital.

METHODS: An interventional non-controlled study analyzed three different sequential educational processes: Pain training week (PW), educational visits by the pain nurse to guide professionals in relation to pain management and e-learning. The impact of the educational strategy was assessed through pain as the 5th vital sign and adequate pain management.

RESULTS: For pain as the 5th vital sign, the audit previous to PW showed a median of compliance of 46.4% at the inpatient unit, 53.1% at the maternity ward and 16.7% at the emergency room. In the evaluations after PW, the median of compliance at the inpatient unit was 78.4%, at the maternity ward 79.62% and at the emergency room 32.9% (p<0.05). There was an improvement in pain management in all hospital sectors after subsequent training (p<0.05).

CONCLUSION: The implementation of a continuing education program has improved pain care assistance and increased compliance to the institutional pain protocol.

Resumo

JUSTIFICATIVA E OBJETIVOS: O manejo da dor pela equipe multidisciplinar continua como um desafio na saúde. O objetivo deste estudo foi analisar o impacto de estratégias educacionais para efetivação da dor como 5º sinal vital e seu gerenciamento em um hospital de alta complexidade.

MÉTODOS: Estudo não controlado de intervenção por meio de análise de três diferentes estratégias educativas sequenciais: Semana de treinamentos sobre Dor (SD), visitas educacionais pelo enfermeiro da dor para orientar os profissionais em relação à dor e treinamento eletrônico virtual de revisão. A análise do impacto das estratégias educativas foi realizada por meio de indicadores em relação à dor como 5º sinal vital e tratamento adequado da dor.

RESULTADOS: Na avaliação da dor como 5° sinal vital, a auditoria prévia à SD mostrou mediana de conformidade de 46,4% na unidade de internação, de 53,1% na maternidade e de 16,7% no Pronto Socorro. Nas avaliações após a SD, a mediana de conformidade na unidade de internação foi de 78,4%, na maternidade de 79,62% e no pronto atendimento de 32,9% (p<0,05). Houve melhora no tratamento da dor em todos os setores após avaliações subsequentes aos treinamentos (p<0,05).

CONCLUSÃO: A implantação de um programa de educação continuada se mostrou efetivo em promover melhora na assistência no cuidado ao paciente com dor e dos resultados dos indicadores assistenciais em relação ao protocolo de dor institucional.
