English to Portuguese: HIV General field: Medical Detailed field: Medical: Health Care
Source text - English For pediatric patients with HIV, the preceding stages have increased psychological stress. Stigma surrounding HIV negatively affects disclosure, influences daily care of the patient, and even continues through to the patient’s death. With regard to difficulties with long-term care, adherence to HIV medication regimens is extremely taxing on the patient and his or her family. To prevent resistance, the child must take the medications with a greater than 95% rate of adherence. This task can be difficult for an adult patient and increasingly difficult when the patient is a child or adolescent. Oftentimes, caregivers fall into the pattern of “miscarried helping.” In miscarried helping the family feels the overwhelming need to help the patient with his or her medication regimen and becomes excessive in the frequency of their helping. They may also invoke negative feelings in the patient by telling him that he is “bad” when he misses his pills. As the patient gets older, he wants to have a sense of autonomy from his caregivers. With the family’s need to help and the patient’s need for autonomy, conflict arises, which can lead to poor health outcomes for the patient. Health care providers must guide the caregiver to ask the patient how to best be helpful regarding medication adherence. By giving the patient the power to direct the help from their caregivers, the patient feels a sense of control over the helping while the family can remain involved in the care. The stressors of a chronic illness can be more challenging when the patient is a child. This situation increases the necessity for caregivers and other family members to assist with medical care and activities of daily living. Chronic illness creates a series of challenges for those involved in the child’s care. These challenges fall into three general areas: emotional, cognitive, and behavioral. Emotionally, the family must come to accept the child’s diagnosis. Doing so includes grieving the loss of the idea of their once-healthy child, as well as guilt, sadness, and anger. If the child acquired HIV through mother-to-child transmission, the mother may feel enormous guilt and may be blamed by other family members for the child’s infection. The cognitive challenge is to educate the child’s family about HIV/AIDS. They must understand the available treatment options and the importance of adherence to the prescribed medication regimen. If they understand how the medications work, family members can become an informed asset to the team providing the child’s medical care. The family should also be educated regarding the symptoms of disease progression and possible side effects of medications. This way the family will know what to look for when the child falls ill or develops new symptoms. The cognitive challenge also includes education specifically for the patient. The pediatric patient must have a developmentally appropriate understanding of why they see the doctor and why they take medications. This understanding may include using developmentally appropriate language such as “bugs” in place of HIV or “soldier cells” in place of CD4/T cells. Often, education with children is more successful with visual tools such as drawing and videos. The behavioral challenge consists of incorporating the child’s chronic illness in the daily life of the child and the family. The child’s medications and clinic visits need to be a part of daily living, though they often require major adjustments and place strain on family relationships and routines. Amid the required behavioral changes, the child’s caregivers must also try to maintain a sense of normalcy for the child. Despite living with a chronic condition, children still need rules, discipline, and routines. Routines are especially important for children dealing with stressful or new situations because they help provide a sense of security. Living with a chronic illness can lead to psychological stress that can build over a long time. People living with HIV are twice as likely to be diagnosed with major depressive disorder. Children living with HIV may have decreased social functioning in comparison with their peers. This decline in social functioning or peer relations may signify the child’s increased difficulty managing his or her HIV diagnosis and/or treatment regimen. This decline may be more apparent as the child grows older and the significance of his or her HIV infection changes with relation to developmental stage. Also, living with a long-term chronic condition also lends a patient to experience burnout. With burnout, a patient may feel depressed and isolated. He or she is frustrated with the medication regimen and the constant requirement to maintain greater than 95% adherence. Often families will shame or guilt their children into taking their medications consistently, which will wear down the patient mentally over time. Health care providers can help reduce patient burnout in chronic illness by using “the 4 Rs”: 1. Realistic goals 2. Reduce blame and criticism in medication adherence 3. Reach for progress, not perfection 4. Recognize negative feelings about disease management as normal and important for the patient to discuss Children with a chronic illness such as HIV/AIDS face unique challenges that make their lives more difficult. It is important to understand the long-term effects that these challenges can have on the children and their caregivers. With proper support from their health care providers and their community, the challenges of living with childhood HIV/AIDS will be easier to surmount.	Translation - Portuguese Para os doentes pediátricos com VIH, as fases precedentes aumentaram o stress psicológico. O estigma em volta do VIH afecta, negativamente, a revelação, influencia os cuidados diários do doente e chega a continuar para além da morte do doente. No que respeita às dificuldades com os cuidados a longo prazo, a adesão aos regimes de medicação do VIH é extremamente dispendiosa para o doente e para a sua família. Para prevenir a resistência, a criança tem de tomar medicamentos com uma taxa superior a 95% de adesão. Esta tarefa pode ser difícil para um doente adulto e ainda mais difícil quando o doente é uma criança ou um adolescente. Muitas vezes, os prestadores de cuidados caem no padrão de “auxílio mal sucedido.” No auxílio mal sucedido a família sente a esmagadora necessidade de ajudar o doente com o seu regime de medicação e torna-se excessiva na frequência do seu auxílio. Eles podem também invocar sentimentos negativos no doente ao dizer-lhe que ele está “mal” quando não toma os comprimidos. À medida que o doente envelhece, ele deseja ter um sentido de autonomia dos seus prestadores de cuidados de saúde. Com a necessidade da família de ajudar e a necessidade do doente em ser autónomo, surge o conflito que pode conduzir a resultados de saúde fracos para o doente. Os prestadores de cuidados de saúde têm de orientar a pessoa que cuida para perguntar ao doente como melhor ser útil no que respeita à adesão aos medicamentos. Ao dar ao doente o poder de orientar a ajuda prestada pelas pessoas que tratam de si, o doente sente uma sensação de controlo sobre o auxílio enquanto a família pode permanecer envolvida nos cuidados. Os factores de stress de uma doença crónica assumem maior agressividade quando o doente é uma criança. Esta situação aumenta a necessidade das pessoas que cuidam dela e dos outros membros da família em prestarem assistência nos cuidados médicos e nas actividades da vida quotidiana. A doença crónica coloca uma série de desafios a todas as pessoas envolvidas nos cuidados da criança. Esses desafios enquadram-se em três áreas gerais: emocional, cognitiva e comportamental. Emocionalmente, a família tem de aceitar o diagnóstico da criança. Fazê-lo inclui a mágoa da perda da ideia da sua outrora criança saudável, bem como culpa, tristeza e raiva. Se a criança tiver sido infectada pelo VIH por transmissão mãe-filho, a mãe pode ter um enorme sentimento de culpa e até ser acusada pelos outros membros da família pela infecção da criança. O desafio cognitivo consiste em educar a família da criança sobre o VIH/SIDA. A família tem de compreender as opções de tratamento disponível e a importância da adesão ao regime de medicação prescrito. Se souberem como actuam os medicamentos, os membros da família podem constituir uma ajuda informada para a equipa que presta assistência médica à criança. Também se devem ensinar à família os sintomas de progressão da doença e os possíveis efeitos secundários dos medicamentos. Deste modo, a família saberá que indícios deve procurar se a criança adoecer ou desenvolver novos sintomas. O desafio cognitivo inclui também educação específica para o doente. O doente pediátrico tem de ter uma compreensão desenvolvida de forma apropriada do porquê de ir ao médico e da razão de tomar medicamentos. Esta compreensão pode incluir a utilização de linguagem desenvolvida de forma apropriada como “bugs” em vez de VIH ou “células soldado” em vez de células CD4/T. Frequentemente, a educação é mais bem-sucedida com crianças utilizando ferramentas visuais do que através de desenhos e vídeos. O desafio comportamental consiste em integrar a doença crónica da criança na vida diária da criança e da família. Os medicamentos e as consultas da criança têm de fazer parte da vida quotidiana, apesar de, muitas vezes, exigirem grandes adaptações e levantarem tensões nas relações e rotinas familiares. Entre as mudanças de comportamento necessárias, as pessoas que cuidam da criança devem tentar manter perante ela uma sensação de normalidade. Apesar de viverem com uma doença crónica, as crianças continuam a carecer de regras, disciplina e rotinas. As rotinas são particularmente importantes para crianças que se encontrem em situações de stress ou novas, porque ajudam a transmitir uma sensação de segurança. Viver com uma doença crónica pode conduzir a stress psicológico, o qual se pode acumular ao longo do tempo. As pessoas que vivem com o VIH têm duas vezes mais probabilidade de lhes ser diagnosticado uma desordem depressiva grave. As crianças que vivem com o VIH podem ter um funcionamento social diminuto em comparação com os seus pares. Este declínio no funcionamento social ou relações com pares pode significar uma dificuldade acrescida da criança em lidar com o seu diagnóstico de VIH e/ ou regime de tratamento. Este declínio pode ser mais aparente à medida que a criança cresce e a importância da sua doença do VIH altera em relação à fase de desenvolvimento. De igual modo, viver com uma doença crónica a longo prazo também faz com que o doente perca a paciência. Com esgotamento, um doente pode sentir-se deprimido e isolado. Ele ou ela sente-se frustrado com o regime de medicação e com a constante exigência de manter uma adesão superior a 95%. Frequentemente as famílias irão envergonhar ou culpar as suas crianças para tomarem os seus medicamentos de forma consistente, o que, ao longo do tempo, irá desgastar mentalmente o doente. Os prestadores de cuidados de saúde podem ajudar a reduzir o esgotamento do doente relativamente à doença crónica, utilizando os “4 Rs”. 1. Objectivos Realistas 2. Reduzir a culpa e o criticismo na adesão à medicação 3. Reclamar atingir o progresso, não a perfeição 4. Reconhecer os sentimentos negativos sobre a gestão da doença como normal e importantes para o doente discutir As crianças com doenças crónicas como o VIH/SIDA enfrentam um desafio ímpar que lhes torna mais difícil a vida. É importante compreender os efeitos que estes desafios podem ter a longo prazo nas crianças e nas pessoas que delas cuidam. Com o apoio adequado dos prestadores de cuidados de saúde e da comunidade, os desafios de viver a infância com VIH/SIDA será mais fácil de ultrapassar.
