          Abstract

          Las unidades de cuidados intensivos [UCI] son sitios para tratamientos médicos de alta complejidad, que dependen de importantes innovaciones técnico-científicas para su funcionamiento y buenos resultados. En ellas es fácil caer en errores de atención despersonalizada y obviar importantísimos manejos sencillos, como son la buena comunicación y el adecuado control de síntomas, lo cual puede desencadenar insatisfacción y quejas de los pacientes y sus familias. Cuando el modelo involucra a padres y sus recién nacidos, hay estrés adicional. El artículo propone corregir los problemas de esta índole que comúnmente ocurren en las UCI neonatales. Desde una perspectiva bioética, se plantean herramientas que son un reto, aunque sean bien sencillas: con su introspección y el consiguiente cambio de actitud, el personal debe implementar dinámicas novedosas, a través de nuevos procedimientos y protocolos, que garanticen una interacción más humanizada.

          Critical care units are high complex treatment areas that depend upon scientific technical innovations in order to function and deliver good results. In them, it's easy to fall into error by depersonalizing services and overlooking simple but important measures like good communication and adequate symptom control. This can lead to patient and family dissatisfaction and complaints. Additional stress is added in these situations when the model involves parents and their newborns. This article proposes correcting these sorts of problems that can commonly occur in NICUs. Tools are proposed from a bioethics perspective that is quite simple but challenging: by introspecting and then changing attitude personnel should implement new dynamics, through new procedures and protocols, which will guarantee more humanized interactions.

          As unidades de cuidados intensivos (UCI) são sítios muito complexos de tratamento médico que dependem de inovações técnico-científicas importantes para funcionar e lograr bons resultados. Nestes lugares é fácil cometer erros como não brindar atenção personalizada; deixar de executar ações simples, como estabelecer uma boa comunicação e controlar bem os sintomas, o que pode gerar insatisfação e queixas dos pacientes e os seus familiais. Quando o modelo abarca pais e recém-nascidos, é produzido estresse adicional. Neste artigo é proposto corrigir os problemas desta natureza, comuns nas UCI neonatais. Desde uma perspectiva bioética, são propostos instrumentos que constituem um desafio, mesmo se são simples: com a sua introspecção e a mudança de atitude, o pessoal deve implementar novas dinâmicas estabelecendo procedimentos e protocolos que garantem uma interação mais humanizada.

          Death in the neonatal intensive care unit: changing patterns of end of life care over two decades.

          Death remains a common event in the neonatal intensive care unit, and often involves limitation or withdrawal of life sustaining treatment. To document changes in the causes of death and its management over the last two decades. An audit of infants dying in the neonatal intensive care unit was performed during two epochs (1985-1987 and 1999-2001). The principal diagnoses of infants who died were recorded, as well as their apparent prognoses, and any decisions to limit or withdraw medical treatment. In epoch 1, 132 infants died out of 1362 admissions (9.7%), and in epoch 2 there were 111 deaths out of 1776 admissions (6.2%; p<0.001). Approximately three quarters of infants died after withdrawal of life sustaining treatment in both epochs. There was a significant reduction in the proportion of deaths from chromosomal abnormalities, and from neural tube defects in epoch 2. There have been substantial changes in the illnesses leading to death in the neonatal intensive care unit. These may reflect the combined effects of prenatal diagnosis and changing community and medical attitudes.
