The lack of a Brazilian scale for pain assessment in adults mechanically ventilated justifies the relevance of this study that aimed to validate the Brazilian version of Behavioral Pain Scale as well as to correlate its scores with the records of physiological parameters, sedation level and severity of disease. Methods: Twenty-five Intensive Care Unit adult patients were included in this study. The Brazilian Behavioral Pain Scale version (previously translated and culturally adapted) and the recording of physiological parameters were performed by two investigators simultaneously during rest, during eye cleaning (non-painful stimulus) and during endotracheal suctioning (painful stimulus). Results: High values of responsiveness coefficient (coefficient = 3.22) were observed. The Cronbach’s alpha of total Behavioral Pain Scale score at eye cleaning and endotracheal suctioning was 0.8. The intraclass correlation coefficient of total Behavioral Pain Scale score was ≥ 0.8 at eye cleaning and endotracheal suctioning. There was a significant highest Behavioral Pain Scale score during application of painful procedure when compared with rest period (p ≤ 0.0001). However, no correlations were observed between pain and hemodynamic parameters, sedation level, and severity of disease. Conclusions: This pioneer validation study of Brazilian Behavioral Pain Scale exhibits satisfactory index of internal consistency, interrater reliability, responsiveness and validity. Therefore, the Brazilian Behavioral Pain Scale version was considered a valid instrument for being used in adult sedated and mechanically ventilated patients in Brazil. 2017-01-01T00:00:00Z https://ri.ufs.br/jspui/handle/riufs/25233 Título: Comparison of the placebo effect between different non-penetrating acupuncture devices and real acupuncture in healthy subjects: a randomized clinical trial Autor(es): Maciel, Leonardo Yung dos Santos; Leite, Paula Michele dos Santos; Poderoso Neto, Mauricio Lima; Mendonça, Andreza Carvalho Rabelo; Araujo, Carla Carolina Alves de; Souza, Jersica da Hora Santos; DeSantana, Josimari Melo 2016-01-01T00:00:00Z https://ri.ufs.br/jspui/handle/riufs/25223 Título: Treinamento funcional e classificação internacional de funcionalidade: uma aproximação Autor(es): Souza, Elenilton Correia de; Farias Neto, Jader Pereira de; Silva-Grigoletto, Marzo Edir da Abstract: The International Classification of Functioning (ICF) was elaborated by the World Health Organization ( WHO) in order to unify the language among health professionals within the biopsychosocial model. ICF contains domains that resemble conceptual aspects and practical perspectives of functional training (FT). There is a consensus limitation of which aspects should be considered about the term “functionality”, in addition to being notorious the little use of ICF in physical activity programs. The aim of this approach study was to support the practical application of ICF as an easy way to complement functional evaluation in FT methods. Discussions were held on how the term “functionality” can be better understood in physical activity programs as well as some possibilities to make ICF in FT more operational. The absence of evidence about the use of ICF in relation to sports science elucidates the need of this approach, which may contribute to expand the knowledge about individuals’ functional health. 2016-01-01T00:00:00Z https://ri.ufs.br/jspui/handle/riufs/25121 Título: Association of chronic diabetes and hypertension in sural nerve morphometry: an experimental study Autor(es): Sanada, Luciana Sayuri; Tavares, Marcelo Rodrigo; Sato, Karina Laurenti; Ferreira, Renata da Silva; Neubern, Milena Cardoso Maia; Castania, Jaci Ayrton; Salgado, Helio Cesar; Fazan, Valéria Paula Sassoli 2015-01-01T00:00:00Z
