Abstract(s)
Sendo a resistência antimicrobiana um problema mundial é importante a implementação de estratégias para mitigar esta resistência, daí o aparecimento do dos programas de Stewardship antimicrobiano (SA) que são estratégias e intervenções multidisciplinares, destinadas a otimizar o uso de antimicrobianos. O envolvimento efetivo dos enfermeiros nas práticas de SA é essencial para o controle e uso adequado destes medicamentos. Os enfermeiros desempenham um papel vital no controlo de infeções, mas a sua atuação na gestão antimicrobiana ainda se verifica limitada. O objetivo do estudo foi avaliar os conhecimentos dos enfermeiros sobre a gestão antimicrobiana, numa unidade local de saúde do Norte de Portugal. Foi um estudo descritivo, transversal e analítico, de abordagem quantitativa, realizado em 182 enfermeiros. Utilizamos um questionário elaborado com base na bibliografia consultada, principalmente num questionário de Padigos et al (2022).
As antimicrobial resistance is a global issue, implementing strategies to mitigate this resistance is crucial, hence the emergence of Antimicrobial Stewardship (AS) programs. These are multidisciplinary strategies and interventions aimed at optimizing the use of antimicrobials. Effective involvement of nurses in AS practices is essential for the control and proper use of these medications. Nurses play a vital role in infection control, but their role in antimicrobial management remains limited. The objective of this study was to assess nurses' knowledge of antimicrobial management in a local health unit in Northern Portugal. A descriptive, cross-sectional, and analytical study with a quantitative approach was conducted on 182 nurses. We used a questionnaire developed based on the literature reviewed, mainly on a questionnaire by Padigos et al (2022).
