Notas Avulsas - 9

 - Homenageando Lynda Woodruff

 Conheci Lynda Woodruff  (1947 - 2018)  quando da sua estada em Recife pelo intercâmbio do Comitê Pernambuco/Georgia com Partners of Americas. Ela veio da Georgia State University ministrar cursos para os Fisioterapeutas pernambucanos em 1980 e causou  impacto amplo e profundo na profissão. Lynda foi uma dos primeiras estudantes negras a integrar a E.C. Glass High School há quase 60 anos.  Participou ativamente rompendo barreiras no auge do Movimento dos Direitos Civis em Lynchburg.

Os serviços in memoriam ocorreram no dia 2 de abril  na St Paul's Episcopal Church em Lynchburg.

 Condolências aos parentes, amigos, membros da American Academy of Physical Therapy (AAPT) e demais colegas de profissão norte-americanos.

- Dia Mundial da Fisioterapia 2018

A Confederação Mundial de Fisioterapia WCPT iniciou os trabalhos coletando materiais para o Dia Mundial da Fisioterapia deste ano. A mensagem será focada no papel da Fisioterapia na saúde mental.

A WCPT mantém  estreita colaboração com o subgrupo da entidade, a Organização Internacional de Fisioterapeutas em Saúde Mental (IOPTMH), para produzir os materiais.

O kit de ferramentas deste ano estará disponível para download no site da Confederação em junho.

- Projeto SUDA

 A WCPT comemora o sucesso do projeto SUDA após reunião no Capitólio em Washington (USA).

 
A Presidente Emma Stokes e o CEO Jonathon Kruger, juntamente com os líderes da Associação Americana de Fisioterapia (APTA), reuniram-se na semana passada com representantes do Leahy War Victims Fund. O programa especial da USAID, financiou o projeto SUDA permitindo à WCPT fortalecer a profissão de Fisioterapeuta na África Ocidental. O projeto reforçou as Associações de Fisioterapia no Mali, Níger e Senegal  melhorando a qualidade e os padrões dos programas de educação do Fisioterapeuta, estabelecendo um modelo de capacitação que pode ser transferido para outros países com poucos recursos.

 Ocorrendo no Capitol Hill, Washington, a reunião deu a WCPT a oportunidade de agradecer in loco  pelo subsídio de US $ 1,2 milhão, além de propor ideias para expandir ou replicar o projeto em outros países.

- Dor Lombar 

Em abril deste ano, a WCPT publicou um artigo mostrando como os Fisioterapeutas estão  atendendo ao chamado para desenvolver mais tratamentos baseados em evidências sobre dor lombar, afirmando que os pacientes obtêm melhores resultados quando são orientados por conselhos que possibilitam estilos de vida ativos, em vez de tratamentos ineficazes de alto custo e muitas vezes prejudiciais ao paciente. A Fisioterapia como abordagem de primeira linha conservadora baseada em exercícios e conselhos sobre a postura corporal mais adequada ao paciente, bem como a prescrição moderada de analgésicos não opióides apresentam-se como a melhor opção de tratamento.


Um estudo importante sobre lombalgia resultou em pedidos para impedir práticas de tratamento prejudiciais e um reconhecimento mundial da deficiência decorrente da condição. A série de artigos, publicada na revista The Lancet, pede que a profissão médica pare com tratamentos ineficazes e potencialmente prejudiciais, como a prescrição de drogas fortes e opiáceos, injeções e cirurgias desnecessárias.

Low back pain Earlier this month WCPT published an article showing how physical therapists are joining the call to further develop evidence-based low back pain treatments, asserting that patients are better-served by advice that enables active lifestyles rather than high-cost ineffective treatments.   A major study on low back pain has resulted in calls to stop harmful treatment practices, and a worldwide recognition of disability arising from the condition. The series of papers, published in The Lancet, asks the medical profession to stop ineffective and potentially damaging treatments such as the prescription of strong drugs and opioids, injections, and unnecessary surgery.

WCPT celebrates success of SUDA project in Capitol Hill meeting WCPT President Emma Stokes and CEO Jonathon Kruger, along with leaders of the American Physical Therapy Association (APTA), met last week with representatives from the Leahy War Victims Fund. The grant, a special USAID programme, funded the SUDA project that has enabled WCPT to strengthen the physical therapy profession in West Africa. The project has bolstered the physical therapy associations in Mali, Niger and Senegal to improve the quality and standards of physical therapist education programs, and establish a model for capacity-building that can be transferred to other low-resource countries.   Taking place in Capitol Hill, Washington, the meeting gave WCPT the opportunity to thank the representatives for the $1.2 million grant, as well as outline ideas for expanding or replicating the project in other countries.

O Eu individual

Voltando  a ser o indivíduo, ao meu Eu.

 

Faz um ano e meio aproximadamente, que concluí o atendimento fisioterapêutico do meu último paciente; nesse meio-tempo li os sete volumes de Proust: Em Busca do Tempo Perdido, bem como o segundo volume da História de Dom Pedro II referente ao período compreendido entre 1825 e 1891 escrito por Heitor Lyra, no momento leio de Friedrich Engels A Origem da Família, da Propriedade Privada e do Estado. No intervalo dessas leituras interessei-me  por alguns capítulos da História Épica do Povo Judeu, de Lawrence Joffe. 

Não mais prestar assistência aos pacientes não significa esquecer a Fisioterapia, tanto que continuo escrevendo e editando textos sobre o tema; só não sei ainda até quando.

A profissão e a vida privada acontecem paralelamente enquanto o tempo passa; mas, como já externei antes, acho que aqui mesmo no Blog, em algum momento da vida a "persona" a "máscara" do profissional Fisioterapeuta é deixada de lado voltando a pessoa ao seu Eu individual.

World Health Day 2018 The theme for this year's World Health Day on 7th April is "Universal health coverage: everyone, everywhere". The World Health Organization (WHO) has put together a toolkit of materials and messages so that you can get involved in the day.   Some of the day's key messages include: Universal health coverage (UHC) is about ensuring all people can get quality health services, where and when they need them, without suffering financial hardship. No one should have to choose between good health and other life necessities. UHC is key to people’s and nations’ health and well-being. UHC is feasible. Some countries have made great progress. Their challenge is to maintain coverage to meet people’s expectations. All countries will approach UHC in different ways: there is no one size fits all. But every country can do something to advance UHC. Making health services truly universal requires a shift from designing health systems around diseases and institutions towards health services designed around and for people. Everyone can play a part in the path to UHC, by taking part in a UHC conversation. Access the WHO website to find out more and how to take part: www.who.int/campaigns/world-health-day/2018/en/

Global Rehabilitation Alliance This month the WCPT President and CEO attended a stakeholder meeting to discuss establishing a Global Rehabilitation Alliance. The meeting follows the WHO Stakeholder Meeting Rehabilitation 2030: A Call for Action in February last year.   WCPT believes a Global Rehabilitation Alliance can be a unified voice to strengthen rehabilitation in health to achieve the vision of a world where everyone has access to rehabilitation by: engaging a diverse and comprehensive community of stakeholders; fostering a common understanding of rehabilitation as a health strategy; advocating with one voice at a global level. The vision of the Global Rehabilitation Alliance is a world where every person has access to timely, quality, user-centred rehabilitation services. Its mission is to advocate for the provision rehabilitation as an integral component of Universal Health Coverage, and to be a strong, cohesive body of stakeholders united to further the development of rehabilitation around the world.   There is strong global support for this alliance. At the conclusion of the meeting stakeholders agreed to reconvene in Geneva in May where organisations will be ask to commit to the founding of this entity .

International conference on health professional regulation  Margot Skinner, WCPT Vice President, will be speaking at the Fifth World Health Professions Regulation Conference, taking place 19th - 20th May 2018 in Geneva. Titled "Mutual recognition: helping professionals move more freely" her presentation will focus on her experiences of the Trans-Tasman Mutual Recognition (TTMR) Arrangement. Dr Skinner will share her experiences around the mutually agreed thresholds for professional standards and describe the benefits of the TTMR. "The agreement requires professionals to register with authorities, so they don't have to jump through all the same hoops to practise," she explains. Dr Skinner highlights that the agreement between Australia and New Zealand enables each country's professional workforce to come from a bigger pool. Professionals are also able to undertake courses and post graduate qualifications without the usual barriers. To register for the conference go to: www.whpa.org/whpcr2018/index.htm
