- O papel do SF-36v2 em indivíduos com queixas de zumbidos: Avaliação da Qualidade de VidaPublication . Oliveira, Vasco; Meneses, Rute F.O ANSI (American National Standards Institute, 1969, citado por Jastreboff et al., 2004, p. 1) apresentou, em 1969, uma definição de zumbidos, dizendo que é "a sensação de som sem estimulação externa". As queixas de zumbido são de difícil abordagem, pelo desconhecimento dos mecanismos que os provocam, pela dificuldade de abordagem em termos terapêuticos e pela diferença demonstrada na valorização que os vários pacientes apresentam a queixas iguais às medições psicoacústicas efetuadas.
- Workplace violence in healthcare settings: Work-related predictors of violence behavioursPublication . Barros, Carla; Meneses, Rute F.; Sani, Ana; Baylina, PilarHealthcare workers are exposed to workplace violence such as physical assaults, psychological violence and threats of violence. It is crucial to understand factors associated with workplace violence to prevent and mitigate its consequences. This study aims to identify work-related factors that might influence workplace violence in healthcare settings. A cross-sectional study was developed between March and April of 2022 with healthcare workers. The Aggression and Violence at Work Scale was used to assess workplace violence, and psychosocial risks were assessed through the Health and Work Survey—INSAT. Statistical analysis using bivariate analysis was performed to identify the psychosocial risk factors related to physical violence, psychological violence and vicarious violence. Subsequently, a multiple linear regression was performed to identify the models that better explained the relationship between psychosocial risk factors and the three dimensions of violence. Psychological violence was frequently experienced by the healthcare workers. Significant associations were found between psychosocial risk factors and physical, psychological and vicarious violence, namely working hours, work relationships, employment relations, high demands and work intensity. These findings highlight the importance of taking into consideration work-related factors when designing interventions to prevent and address workplace violence in healthcare settings.
