RESUMEN

Objetivo: analisar o cenário de vacinação contra Covid-19 na população privada de liberdade em um estado do Nordeste brasileiro. Método: estudo do tipo observacional e ecológico, com os dados extraídos do Sistema de informações penitenciário brasileiro e dos boletins publicados pelo Conselho Nacional de Justiça, referentes a outubro de 2021 a junho de 2022, submetidos à análise estatística descritiva, por meio de frequências absolutas e relativas. Resultados: verificou-se que, entre 4.345 pessoas privadas de liberdade com a primeira dose de vacinação contra Covid-19, apenas 573 possuíam a segnda dose e nenhuma a terceira dose. Conclusão: evidenciou-se que, apesar da vacinação ser um benefício, ainda é um grande desafio para ser implementada para a população privada de liberdade, visto que, mesmo sendo considerados grupos prioritários, o acesso a esse direito foi prejudicado para esses indivíduos.

Objective: to analyze the Covid-19 vaccination scenario in the population deprived of liberty in a state in the Brazilian Northeast. Method: observational and ecological study, with data extracted from the Brazilian Penitentiary Information System and the bulletins published by the National Council of Justice, referring to October 2021 to June 2022, submitted to descriptive statistical analysis, using absolute and relative frequencies. Results: it was found that of the 4,345 people deprived of their liberty who had received the first dose of Covid-19 vaccination, only 573 had received the second dose and none had received the third dose. Conclusion: it was evident that, although vaccination is a benefit, it is still a major challenge to implement it for the population deprived of their liberty, since even though they are considered priority groups, access to this right has been hampered for these individuals.

RESUMEN

INTRODUCTION: Incarcerated individuals exhibit higher suicide rates compared to the general population. Investigating risk factors aids in developing effective public policies and interventions. The goal of this study was to assess and analyze factors predicting both suicidal thoughts and suicide attempts in a population of male incarcerated individuals who engage in the use of multiple psychoactive substances. METHODS: A cross-sectional observational study was conducted. A total of 174 male individuals deprived of liberty participated in the study, all of whom were serving a closed regime sentence during the data collection steps. Participants were assessed with the following instruments: the "Addiction Severity Index" (ASI-6) and the "Barratt Impulsiveness Scale" (BIS-11). RESULTS: Amongst our sample, prevalences of 36.7% in suicidal ideation and of 16.0% in suicide attempts were found. Impulsivity (OR = 1.098, 95% CI: 1.008 - 1.197), social support (OR = 0.281, 95% CI: 0.085 - 0.925), witnessing someone being killed or beaten (OR = 5.173, 95% CI: 2.143 - 12.486), cigarette use (OR = 3.309, 95% CI: 1.063 - 10.293), and cocaine use (OR = 2.678, 95% CI: 1.040 - 6.897) were also found to be associated with suicidal ideation. No significant associations were found between drug use and suicide attempts. CONCLUSION: A high prevalence of suicidal behaviors was observed in the study's sample, with findings demonstrating that impulsivity moderately differentiates the groups 'with' and 'without' suicidal ideation. Traumatic life events and substance use were also associated with suicide ideation, while social support was established as a protective factor for it.

RESUMEN

PURPOSE: The prison population is seldom studied and often overlooked in many countries despite their vulnerability to long-term illness. This study aims to explore the factors associated with the non-treatment for long-term illnesses among incarcerated individuals. DESIGN/METHODOLOGY/APPROACH: This study is a cross-sectional analysis. The authors conducted a secondary data analysis using information collected in the Peruvian census of incarcerated individuals. The study population consisted of incarcerated individuals diagnosed with a long-term illness. To evaluate the factors associated with non-treatment, the authors used a Poisson regression model. FINDINGS: The authors included 12,512 incarcerated individuals (age: 40.9 ± 13.1 years), and 39% of them did not receive treatment for their long-term illness. The authors observed that non-treatment was statistically associated with gender, age, having children, use of the Spanish language, sexual identity, judicial situation, penitentiary location, discrimination inside the penitentiary and health insurance before incarceration. However, only having children (prevalence ratio [PR]: 1.11, confidence interval [CI]95% 1.03-1.19), using the Spanish language (PR: 1.15, CI95%: 1.01-1.31), being in a penitentiary not in Lima (PR: 1.11, CI95%: 1.06-1.17) and perceiving discrimination inside the penitentiary (PR: 1.12, CI95% 1.06-1.18) increased the prevalence of non-treatment. ORIGINALITY/VALUE: Identifying the factors associated with non-treatment will allow us to implement measures for prioritizing groups and developing strategies for the evaluation, close follow-up of their health and management of comorbidities.

RESUMEN

INTRODUCTION: The prevalence of hepatitis C (HCV) is high among prisoners. If untreated, a substantial number of patients progress to cirrhosis, hepatocarcinoma, or liver failure. World Health Organization aims to reduce the incidence of infection by 90% by 2030. OBJECTIVE: To describe the prevalence of anti-HCV and sociodemographic and clinical aspects, related to the presence of the antibody, in the population deprived of liberty. METHODS: Cross-sectional and epidemiological survey, with exploratory, observational, quantitative-analytical components. A simple random sample of 233 participants, with 95% Confidence Interval (CI) and, a 4% margin of error, was calculated for a population of 1,564 prisoners. The relationship between sociodemographic and clinical variables was evaluated, considering as outcome of the rapid test for anti-HCV results, using the associative measure Prevalence Ratio (PR) with a 95% CI. RESULTS: 240 people participated. The prevalence of anti-HCV was 2%, and the use of injectable drugs (PR 14.75; PRIC95% 2.09-104.28), being born in the decades of 1951 to 1980 (PR 9.28; PRIC95% 1.06-81.57) and be co-infected with hepatitis B virus (PR 10.75; PRIC95% 1.66-69.65) were the aspects that presented a relevant prevalence ratio for the presence of the virus, which could be generalized to the population. CONCLUSION: This is a population that is difficult to access, the study is relevant because it contributes to preventive measures of public health in the prison system. Moreover, it shows the need to implement measures to prevent and contain the spread of HCV, aiming at the elimination of hepatitis C in this population.

INTRODUÇÃO: A prevalência da hepatite C (HCV) é elevada entre os prisioneiros. Se não tratada, proporção substancial das infecções progride para cirrose, hepatocarcinoma ou insuficiência hepática. Organização Mundial de Saúde tem a meta de reduzir a incidência da infecção em 90% até 2030. OBJETIVO: Descrever a prevalência do anti-HCV e os aspectos sociodemográficos e clínicos, relacionados à presença do anticorpo, na população privada de liberdade. MÉTODOS: Estudo transversal por inquérito epidemiológico, com componente exploratório, observacional, quantitativo-analítico. Foi calculada amostra aleatória simples de 233 pessoas, Intervalo de Confiança (IC) 95%, margem de erro 4% para população de 1564 prisioneiros. Foi avaliada a relação entre os aspectos sociodemográficos e clínicos com o desfecho obtido pelo teste rápido para anti-HCV por meio da medida associativa Razão de Prevalência (RP) e IC de 95% para essa estimativa. RESULTADOS: Participaram 240 pessoas. A prevalência do anti-HCV foi de 2%, sendo que o uso de drogas injetáveis (RP 14,75; RPIC95% 2,09-104,28), ter nascido nas décadas de 1951 a 1980 (RP 9,28; RPIC95% 1,06-81,57) e ser coinfectado com o vírus da hepatite B (RP 10,75; RPIC95% 1,66-69,65) foram os aspectos que apresentaram razão de prevalência para a presença do vírus, passível de generalização para a população. CONCLUSÃO: Trata-se de população de difícil acesso, o estudo é relevante por contribuir para medidas preventivas de saúde pública no sistema prisional. Outrossim, mostra a necessidade de se implementar medidas para evitar e conter a disseminação de HCV, visando a microeliminação da hepatite C na população carcerária.

RESUMEN

Objetivo: Apreender o entrecruzamento interseccional das masculinidades e do encarceramento junto ao acometimento das Infecções Sexualmente Transmissíveis em homens em situação prisional. Métodos: Estudo qualitativo, realizado com 30 homens adultos em situação prisional, Bahia, Brasil. Realizou-se entrevista individual, guiada por um roteiro semiestruturado. Empregou-se a Análise do Discurso, e interpretação com base no referencial teórico-político da Interseccionalidade. A partir dos dados, derivam-se duas sequências discursivas de frequência, sete formações discursivas e um modelo explicativo. Resultados: Dada a ordem de gênero em direção à construção das masculinidades de homens pretos/pardos, periféricos, cisgêneros e heterossexuais que experienciam o encarceramento diante a situação prisional, intercruzada junto aos demais marcadores socioidentitários de influência para o acometimento das infecções sexualmente transmissíveis tais como a raça/cor da pele, classe social, sexo/sexualidade, escolaridade/letramento, idade/geração, explicitaram contextos de vulnerabilidades em saúde: negligências, violência, exclusão, machismo, opressão, risco, transmissão, infecções, insalubridade, confinamento, os quais se cruzam e engarrafam, provocando sobreposições e invisibilidades umas com as outras. Conclusão: Há interseccionalidade operando na vivência de homens em situação prisional acometidos por Infecções Sexualmente Transmissíveis. (AU)

Objective: To understand the intersectionality of masculinities and incarceration in relation to the involvement of Sexually Transmitted Infections in men in prison. Methods: A qualitative study was carried out with 30 adult men in prison in Bahia, Brazil. An individual interview was conducted, guided by a semi-structured script. Discourse analysis was used and interpretation was based on the theoretical-political framework of intersectionality. From the data, two discursive frequency sequences, seven discursive formations and an explanatory model were derived. Results: Given the gender order towards the construction of the masculinities of black/brown, peripheral, cisgender and heterosexual men who experience incarceration, intercrossed with the other socio-identity markers that influence sexually transmitted infections such as race/skin color, social class, gender/sexuality, schooling/learning, age/generation, they made explicit contexts of health vulnerabilities: neglect, violence, exclusion, machismo, oppression, risk, transmission, infections, unhealthiness, confinement, which intersect and bottle up, causing overlaps and invisibilities with each other. Conclusion: There is intersectionality operating in the experience of men in prison affected by Sexually Transmitted Infections. (AU)

RESUMEN

Introduction: Studies on human T-lymphotropic virus 1/2 (HTLV-1/2) infection are scarce in incarcerated population. Therefore, this study estimated the prevalence of HTLV-1/2 infection among prisoners of the major penitentiary complex of Goiás State, Central-West Brazil, comparing it with available data from other Brazilian regions. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted with 910 prisoners of the major penitentiary complex in the State of Goiás, Central-West Brazil. All participants were interviewed, and their serum samples were tested for anti-HTLV-1/2 using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA; Murex HTLV-I + II, DiaSorin, Dartford, UK). Seropositive samples were submitted for confirmation by a line immunoassay (INNO-LIA HTLV I/II, Fujirebio, Europe N.V., Belgium). Results: The majority of participants were males (83.1%), between 25 and 39 years old (56.1%; mean age: 31.98 years), self-reported brown ethnicity (56.2%) and reported 9 years or less of formal education (41.4%). Most reported using non-injectable illicit drugs and various sexual behaviors that present risk for sexually transmitted infections (STIs). The prevalence of anti-HTLV-1/2 was 0.33% (95% CI: 0.07-0.96), HTLV-1 (0.22%) and HTLV-2 (0.11%). The two HTLV-1 seropositive prisoners reported high-risk sexual behaviors, and the HTLV-2 seropositive individual was breastfed during childhood (> 6 months) by her mother and three other women. Conclusion: These data revealed a relatively low seroprevalence of HTLV-1/2 in prisoners in Central-West Brazil, and evidence of HTLV-1 and HTLV-2 circulation in the major penitentiary complex of Goiás State. Given the prevalence of high-risk sexual behaviors, there is a crucial need to intensify education and health programs in prisons to effectively control and prevent HTLV-1/2 and other STIs.

RESUMEN

Objectives: To describe sociodemographic characteristics and health-related data in persons deprived of liberty (PDL) from South America in the last five years. Methods: Documentary descriptive study. Results: There are 1.5 million PDL in Latin America and the Caribbean; the average overcrowding is 64%; 58% do not sleep in beds, 20% do not have access to clean water and 29% do not receive medical care. In Peru, during 2021, there were 87,245 PDL and 69 penal institutions. The national average overcrowding is 120%, the second-highest in South America. In South America, the prevalence of tuberculosis is 2.0% SD = 0.64 and the median of illegal substances prevalence is 34.6 (IQR = 7.5-41.4). In Peru, the prevalence of tuberculosis has decreased since 2016 (4.3%), 2018(3.5%), and 2021(2.5%). Among the health problems by country, there were more data on substance use: 8/10, and tuberculosis, 7/10 countries. Cardiovascular diseases had the least available data. Regarding COVID-19, during the first wave in Peru, 54% of the total PPL were infected, and by the end of the wave, 446 PDL and 46 members of the prison staff had died. In Colombia, between April and October 2020, there were 16,804 cases (80 in ICU) and 136 deaths. In Brazil, up to March 2021, 340 people had died, and there were over 67,000 infections. Conclusions: Overcrowding is an unresolved problem; tuberculosis and substance use are the most frequent issues. Data are limited in quality, homogeneity and availability. Greater effort is needed from health authorities to improve health management and information systematization. Source: MesH.

RESUMEN

Objective: To investigate the use of medicines by women deprived of their liberty in a municipality in the east of Minas Gerais. Method: The research was conducted in three stages: (I) documentary investigation, (II) analysis of medical records, and (III) application of semi-structured questionnaires. Women deprived of liberty who were part of the prison system evaluated participated in the study. The research was carried out between June 2020 and June 2021. Result: Seventeen women deprived of their liberty participated in the study, most of them black and brown (88.24%), between 30 and 49 years old (n = 9; 52.9%), and who used a total of 56 different medications, with the psychotropic class being the most prevalent (n = 28; 50%), followed by cardiovascular system drugs (n = 15; 26.8%). Conclusion: The medications most used by study participants belonged to the class of antidepressants and antiepileptics. Furthermore, the women's medical records lacked crucial information regarding medication use. These data, combined with difficulties in access, highlight the importance of complying with public policies in favor of comprehensive health care for women deprived of their liberty, especially the right to access and rational use of medicines.

RESUMEN

A população em situação de privação de liberdade por motivos judiciais no Brasil é composta por homens e mulheres adultos inseridos no sistema prisional e jovens que cumprem medidas socioeducativas. O direito à saúde dessa população é garantido por políticas ministeriais regulamentadas por portarias normativas, que integram esta parcela da população ao Sistema Único de Saúde (SUS), com foco no cuidado integral, resolutividade e atenção contínua e de qualidade. No entanto, existem expressivos fatores que obstaculizam a promoção efetiva de saúde, como a deficiência estrutural, superlotação, ambientes insalubres e estressantes, má alimentação e hábitos não saudáveis. Diante disso, o presente estudo se propôs a analisar, através de uma revisão narrativa da literatura, o panorama da saúde bucal dessa população. A pesquisa para compor essa revisão foi realizada nas bases de dados bibliográficos PubMed, Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde, contemplando LILACS, Periódicos CAPES e SciELO. Foram utilizados critérios de inclusão como parâmetro linguístico (inglês e português), temático e cronológico, publicados entre 2010 e 2020, abrangendo estudos qualitativos e quantitativos, e revisões de literatura, totalizando ao final 12 artigos. Foi possível observar uma alta demanda por atenção à saúde bucal neste grupo, tanto na assistência como na promoção e prevenção, e déficit na oferta dos serviços, expresso pelas limitações na infraestrutura, fragilidades nos recursos humanos, e pelo perfil curativista da assistência, evidenciando a necessidade da reformulação e fortalecimento da oferta de serviços odontológicos a esses indivíduos.

The population in a liberty privation situation, for legal reasons in Brazil, it's composed of men and women adults in the prisional system and young people in educational measures. The right to health of this population is guaranteed by ministerial policies regulated by normative ordinances, which integrate this part of population to the Sistema Único de Saúde (SUS), with focus on comprehensive, resolutive and continuous quality care. However, there are significant factors that hinder the effective promotion of health, such as structural deficiency, overcrowding, unhealthy and stressful environments, poor diet and unhealthy habits. Therefore, the present study proposed to verify, through a narrative review of the literature, the oral health panorama of this population. The research to compose this review was made in the bibliographic databases PubMed, Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde, including LILACS, Periódicos CAPES and SciELO. Inclusion criteria were used as a linguistic (English and Portuguese), thematic and chronological parameter, published between 2010 and 2020, covering qualitative and quantitative studies, and literature reviews, totalizing 12 articles. It was possible to observe a high demand for oral health care in this group, in promotion and prevention, and a deficit in the provision of services, expressed by limitations in infrastructure, weaknesses in human resources, and by the curative profile of care, evidencing the need to reformulate and strengthen the offer of dental services to these individuals.

Abstract Objective to analyze the factors associated with deaths due to tuberculosis/HIV co-infection in people deprived of their freedom. Methods Retrospective cohort study, carried out in the state of São Paulo from 2008 to 2017. The study population was made up of people with tuberculosis/HIV co-infection in deprivation of their freedom. Data were collected from the TB-WEB Tuberculosis Patient Control System in linkage with the Mortality Information System. The risk of death according to sociodemographic, clinical and treatment variables was established by relative risk and respective 95% confidence intervals. Results 100 deaths from tuberculosis and/or HIV were identified in the period, which were associated with: individuals belonging to the Regional Coordination of Vale do Paraíba/in the coast (relative risk 2.59; 95% confidence interval 1.35-4, 94); age groups 30 to 39 years old (relative risk 2.49; 95% confidence interval 1.04-5.96), 40 to 49 years old (relative risk 7.09; 95% confidence interval 3.06-19, 06) and 50 to 59 years old (relative risk 14.11; 95% confidence interval 5.91-33.69); self-administered treatment (relative risk 1.94; 95% confidence interval 1.16-3.27); and occurrence of hospitalization (relative risk 2.62; 95% confidence interval 1.69-4.07). Conclusion Such factors must be considered when dealing with tuberculosis/HIV co-infection, considering the age of people in prison, the conditions of incarceration and the intensification of directly observed treatment, aiming to avoid conditions that will require hospitalization.

RESUMEN

ABSTRACT Objective: The objective of the present study is to describe the sociodemographic and behavioral characteristics of a group of transgender women and travestis (TGW) with a history of incarceration and the institutional and social context of this experience in Brazil. Methods: The analyzed data were derived from the TransOdara Study, a cross-sectional study conducted in five Brazilian capitals from December 2019 to July 2021. Participants were recruited using the Respondent-Driven Sampling (RDS) technique, in which, after an initial formative and exploratory stage, the first participants were identified; in turn, these participants recruited up to six other transgender women and travestis for the research. The study's outcome was the experience of incarceration throughout life, captured through the question: "Have you ever been arrested in your life?" Results: A total of 1,245 TGW were interviewed, of which 20.3% (n=253) experienced incarceration. Incarceration was more frequent among those aged 33 to 42 years (35.6%), with lower level of education (45.5%, p<0.001), engaged in informal work (30.3%), without a partner (67.2%), and among those who reported illicit drug use (66.4%). The majority (60.9%) of TGW were incarcerated with cisgender men, and the most common reasons for imprisonment were drug trafficking (30.4%) followed by robbery (29.2%). Over a quarter of the interviewees (26.3%) experienced assault, and 13.8% reported experiencing sexual violence during incarceration. Conclusion: The results emphasize the high prevalence of incarceration among TGW. This incarceration takes place in male wards and in a context of high rates of physical and sexual violence.

RESUMO Objetivo: O objetivo do presente estudo é descrever as características sociodemográficas e comportamentais de um grupo de mulheres trans e travestis (MTT) com histórico de encarceramento e o contexto institucional e social desta experiência no Brasil. Métodos: Os dados são provenientes do Estudo TransOdara, de delineamento transversal, realizado em 5 capitais brasileiras no período de dezembro de 2019 a julho de 2021. As participantes foram recrutadas pela técnica Respondent-Driven Sampling (RDS), onde, após uma etapa inicial formativa e exploratória, as primeiras participantes foram identificadas; elas, por sua vez, recrutavam até outras seis mulheres trans e travestis para a pesquisa. O desfecho do estudo foi a experiência de encarceramento durante a vida apreendido através da pergunta: "Você alguma vez na vida já foi presa?". Resultados: Um total de 1.245 MTT foram entrevistadas. Destas, 20,3% (n=253) experienciaram o cárcere. O encarceramento foi mais frequente entre as entrevistadas de 33 a 42 anos (35,6%), com menor escolaridade (45,5%), em situação de trabalho informal (30,3%) e entre aquelas que reportaram uso de drogas ilícitas (66,4%). A maioria (60,9%) das MTT ficou presa com homens cisgênero, e o motivo da prisão mais frequente foi o tráfico de drogas (30,4%), seguido de roubo (29,2%). Mais de um quarto das entrevistadas (26,3%) sofreu agressão, e 13,8% relataram ter sofrido violência sexual durante o encarceramento. Conclusão: Os resultados destacam a elevada prevalência de encarceramento entre MTT. Este encarceramento se dá em alas masculinas e em um contexto de altas taxas de violência física e sexual.

RESUMEN

ABSTRACT Objective: to understand the Generalized Resistance Deficits of people deprived of liberty with hypertension in a Brazilian prison unit. Method: qualitative research, anchored in Salutogenesis, carried out with 38 people with hypertension from a Brazilian prison unit, from February to July 2022, with a semi-structured interview with open-ended questions, whose analysis was thematic, explaining the limitations to health in prison. Results: 13 Generalized Resistance Deficits were reported, mostly related to the prison environment and, to a lesser extent, to the social group and the individual, respectively. Living in prison for people with hypertension implies living with a high number of Generalized Resistance Deficits, accentuating the movement towards the disease pole. Final considerations: knowing Generalized Resistance Deficits allows directing health promotion to support the use of available Generalized Resistance Resources and contributes to the expansion of intersectoral policies.

RESUMEN Objetivo: comprender los Déficits de Resistencia Generalizados de personas privadas de libertad con hipertensión arterial sistémica en una unidad penitenciaria brasileña. Método: investigación cualitativa, anclada en la Salutogénesis, realizada con 38 personas con hipertensión arterial sistémica de una unidad penitenciaria brasileña, de febrero a julio de 2022, con entrevista semiestructurada con preguntas abiertas, cuyo análisis fue temático, explicando las limitaciones a la salud en prisión. Resultados: se reportaron 13 Déficits de Resistencia Generalizados, en su mayoría relacionados con el ambiente penitenciario y, en menor medida, con el grupo social y el individuo, respectivamente.

RESUMEN

ABSTRACT Objective: to map the repercussions of using the rapid molecular test for diagnosing tuberculosis among people deprived of liberty in the scientific literature. Method: this is a scoping review following the recommendations of the Joanna Briggs Institute and PRISMA for Scoping Reviews. The search was conducted using controlled and free vocabulary in the following databases: EMBASE, Scopus, MEDLINE, Cinahl, Academic Search Premier, LILACS and Web of Science, in the Brazilian Digital Library of Theses and Dissertations and Google Scholar. The materials which answered the review question were selected by two independent reviewers based on reading the titles, abstracts and publications. All types of studies and publications were included. The extracted data was subjected to narrative synthesis and presented graphically. Results: a total of 13 among the 461 publications found were included in the review. The studies pointed out the following repercussions of using the rapid molecular test in the prison population: increase in the diagnosis of cases compared to sputum smear microscopy; reduction in diagnosis time, initiating treatment and isolation; identification of strains resistant to antibiotic therapy; reducing the prevalence and occurrence of tuberculosis; high agreement of test results with culture results; lower cost of the test when carried out in groups of samples or when screening is carried out by radiography. Conclusion: the literature indicated that the rapid molecular test is relevant for combating tuberculosis in prison units, so its use should be considered by authorities and managers as a strategic tool for controlling the disease.

RESUMEN

OBJETIVO: desarrollar una Teoría de Afrontamiento Consciente y Autoconciencia Adaptativa en Mujeres en Reclusión, como fundamento teórico para el estudio de investigación, el cual fue derivado del Modelo de Adaptación de Callista Roy. METODOLOGÍA: Para realizar el proceso de derivación teórica, se utilizó la metodología de Jaqueline Fawcett, la cual consta de 5 pasos: 1. la identificación de conceptos, en este paso abarca el nombre del modelo conceptual; 2.Clasificación de los conceptos, es aplicable solamente a los conceptos de la teoría de alcance intermedio o de rango medio;3. Identificación y clasificación de las proposiciones, que se realiza conforme a las propiedades de observabilidad y variabilidad del fenómeno; 4. El ordenamiento jerárquico de las proposiciones, es decir, la organización de las proposiciones jerárquicamente según su nivel de abstracción; y, 5. La construcción de diagramas, la formalización de una Estructura Teórico-Conceptual-Empírico. DESARROLLO: se definieron los cuatros conceptos principales de la teoría como el estrés percibido, respuestas emocionales, afrontamiento consciente y la autoconciencia adaptativa en las mujeres en reclusión. CONCLUSIÓN: el desarrollo de una derivación teórica basada en el modelo de adaptación de Callista Roy para la Teoría del afrontamiento consciente y la autoconciencia adaptativa es importante, ya que permite una comprensión más profunda de cómo las mujeres en reclusión pueden adaptarse y enfrentar los desafíos que enfrentan en su entorno carcelario.

PURPOSE: To develop for this research study a Theory of Conscious Coping and Adaptive Self-Awareness in Women in Confinement, which was derived from Callista Roy's Adaptation Model. METHODOLOGY: To carry out the theoretical derivation process, Jaqueline Fawcett's 5-step methodology was used: 1. Identification of concepts, in this case reflected in the name of the conceptual model; 2. Classification of concepts, applicable only to the concepts of the intermediate or mid-range theory; 3. Identification and classification of propositions, which is carried out according to the properties of observability and variability of the phenomenon; 4. The hierarchical ordering of propositions, that is, the organization of propositions hierarchically according to their level of abstraction; 5. The construction of diagrams, supporting the formalization of a Theoretical-Conceptual-Empirical Structure. DEVELOPMENT: the four main concepts of the theory were defined as perceived stress, emotional responses, conscious coping, and adaptive self-awareness in women in confinement. CONCLUSION: The development of a theoretical derivation based on Callista Roy's adaptation model for Conscious Coping Theory and Adaptive Self-Awareness is important, as it allows for a deeper understanding of how women in confinement can adapt and cope with the challenges they face in their prison environment.

RESUMEN

Worldwide, the COVID-19 pandemic represented a health emergency for prisons. This study sought to understand the meanings and experiences through the narratives of prisoners and family members affected by the COVID-19 pandemic in the context of a maximum-security state penitentiary complex in southern Brazil. For this purpose, a qualitative study was developed based on the methodological framework of constructivist grounded theory. Data were collected between February and August 2022 through individual in-depth interviews and field notes. The sample consisted of 41 participants: 28 male prisoners, and 13 family members. Guided by the Charmaz method of grounded theory analysis, the study afforded the core category "Feeling trapped in prison during the COVID-19 pandemic" with three interrelated phases: "Triggering", "Escalating", and "Readjustment". The "Triggering" phase refers to COVID-19-related elements or events that triggered certain reactions, processes, or changes in prison. During the "Escalating" phase, participants became overwhelmed by the suffering caused by incarceration and the pandemic crisis. The "Readjustment" phase involved adapting, reorienting, or reformulating previous approaches or strategies for dealing with a specific situation. Prisons faced complex challenges during the pandemic and were forced to prioritize protecting public health. However, the measures adopted must be carefully evaluated, ensuring their needs and that they are based on scientific evidence. The punitive approach can undermine inmate trust in prison authorities, making it difficult to report symptoms and adhere to preventive measures.

RESUMEN

Introduction. People deprived of liberty, due to their condition and characteristics, suffer greater changes in their health than the general population, particularly in personality disorders,consumption of psychoactive substances, and suicidal tendencies. The prison system is aware of these risks, and universally, multiple approaches to the subject have been developed, as evidenced by the abundant literature, for its early detection. Objective. Apply the screening instrument, the Brief Jail Mental Health Screening (BJMHS) test, to a sample of people deprived of Liberty upon admission to three Colombian prisons, to establish the prevalence of mental health in these institutions. Methodology. The type of study was cross-sectional in a population of incarcerated individuals in three institutions, two Colombian prisons for men, and one for women, between 2019 and 2020. The final validated sample was 417 people, 22.3% women and 77.7% men, for mental health screening, applied to the admission of the population deprived of liberty in prisons. Results. The global prevalence of mental health was 46.0% with a 95% Confidence interval (41.3% to 50.8%) for the Buen Pastor prison; 46.2% with a 95% Confidence Interval (35.9% to 56.6%), for the Modelo prison 51.5% with a 95% Confidence interval (43.0% to 60.0%); and for the Picota prison with 42.0% with a 95% Confidence interval (34.9% to 49.1%). A greater impact on mental health was found in people accused or convicted of crimes against sexual freedom, integrity and training. against public safety, and against the family. Discussion. Given the unique conditions of the prison population and the universality of mental disorders, early detection of their functional level and degree of impairment is indispensable. Conclusion. The prevalence of mental health found in Colombian prisons has a similar magnitude to the same populations in various parts of the world, showing greater reliability in men than in women.

Introducción. Las personas privadas de la libertad, por su misma condición y características, padecen mayores alteraciones en su salud que la población general, en particular con relación a los trastornos de la personalidad, consumo de sustancias psicoactivas, y tendencias suicidas. El sistema carcelario es conocedor de estos riesgos, y universalmente, se han desarrollado múltiples abordajes del tema como lo demuestra la abundante literatura, para su detección temprana. Objetivo. Establecer la prevalencia de salud mental y asociaciones de los factores de nivel educativo, edad, sexo, de la situación jurídica de las personas privadas de la libertad, a través del instrumento de tamizaje, Brief Jail Mental Health Screening (BJMHS) (Breve Evaluación de Salud Mental en la Cárcel), a una muestra de personas privadas de la libertad a su ingreso en tres centros carcelarios colombianos. Metodología. Estudio observacional de corte transversal en una población de tres cárceles de Colombia de los años 2019 y 2020, dos cárceles para varones, y una para mujeres. La muestra final validada, fue de 417 personas, 22.3% a mujeres y 77.7% a hombres, para el tamizaje en salud mental, aplicada al ingreso a los establecimientos carcelarios. Resultados. La prevalencia global de trastornos mentales fue de 46.0% con un Intervalo de Confianza de 95% (41.3% a 50.8%), para la cárcel Buen Pastor fue de 46.2% con un Intervalo de Confianza 95% (35.9% a 56.6%), para la cárcel Modelo 51.5% con un Intervalo de Confianza 95% (43.0% a 60.0%), y para la cárcel Picota con un 42.0% con un Intervalo de Confianza 95% (34.9% a 49.1%). Se encontró una mayor afectación en salud mental en personas sindicadas o condenadas por delitos contra la libertad, integridad y formación sexuales, contra la seguridad pública, y contra la familia. Discusión. Dadas las singulares condiciones de la población carcelaria y la universalidad de afectaciones mentales, es indispensable una detección temprana de su nivel funcional y grado de afectación. Conclusión. Se encontró una prevalencia de trastornos mentales en las cárceles de Colombia, de una magnitud consistente con similares poblaciones reportadas en la literatura universal, arrojando mayor relevancia en hombres que en mujeres.

RESUMEN

Background: This cross-sectional study serves as a first Brazilian inventory about overweight as a marker for metabolic health and risk factor to develop noncommunicable chronic diseases in prison populations. The prevalence of overweight, and its associated factors in prisoners of the Fifth Regional State Penitentiary of Rio Grande do Sul (5th DPR) in the extreme South of Brazil were investigated using a precoded questionnaire with sociodemographic, behavioral, and health questions, applied to proportional stratified random sampled prisoners. Methods: Five hundred eighty male prisoners (70%) in the closed regime agreed to answer the questionnaire and allowed anthropomorphic body measurement, carried out by trained scientists. We used bivariate Pearson's chi-squared test and adjusted multinomial logistic regression for analyses. Results: Considering that the studied incarcerated population is young (mean age 33 years) it is concerning that already 43.6% of them are overweight, report regular sweets and sugary soft drink consumption (77.7%, and 81.4%, respectively), 60.2% are smokers, and 19.4% are at elevated risk to develop cardiovascular diseases. Further, 13.8% of the respondents reported a diagnosis of hypertension, 4.9% hypercholesterolemia, and 2.7% diabetes mellitus type 2. Among those who reported not smoking, excess weight was almost four times higher (prevalence ratio: 3.79; 95% confidence interval: 2.61-5.50). Conclusions: Our study suggests that the prison environment promotes modifiable risk factors for chronic diseases. These data deserve attention and intervention, aiming to prevent and reduce the current levels of excess weight.

RESUMEN

AIMS AND OBJECTIVES: To illustrate the scope of different types of transitional, community-based health interventions for formerly incarcerated women, trans and nonbinary people, the eligibility criteria for these interventions, and associated health outcomes. BACKGROUND: Meeting the health needs of formerly incarcerated people in community, rather than through the criminal justice system, may prevent further experiences of criminalization. Research is needed to understand what community-based health interventions have been implemented internationally to inform the design of an intervention in Canada. DESIGN: Scoping review using the Joanna Briggs Institute scoping review methodology. METHODS: In consultation with a medical research librarian, key databases and journals were searched for English language articles, from any country, with no specified date range. Three authors independently screened titles and abstracts to identify articles for full-text review. The study adheres to PRISMA-EQUATOR guidelines. RESULTS: Thirty-six studies met the present criteria and were reviewed in full text. Method, setting, participants, sample, relevant outcomes and relevant findings were extracted from each study for synthesis. Included studies had varied methods and were published from 1999 to 2020. Thirty-one studies were based in the United States, one in Puerto Rico and two each in Canada and the United Kingdom. The most common health issue focus was human immunodeficiency virus and/or hepatitis c virus. The most common outcome was uptake of offered services, such as a transitional clinic. CONCLUSIONS: Gaps in the research pertain to a lack of attention to clinical outcomes and patient experience, and a lack of consideration of sexual and reproductive health concerns. Women were the minority population in all studies that included both men and women; transgender participants were mentioned in only four of thirty-six studies. The specific needs of women, trans and nonbinary people must be taken into consideration. RELEVANCE TO CLINICAL PRACTICE: Nurses must be conscious of the elevated health risks associated with exposure to correctional institutions and the risks associated with the period of transition. PATIENT OR PUBLIC CONTRIBUTION: A member of the research team brings lived experience expertise with respect to the criminal justice system.

RESUMEN

Resumo O estudo teve como objetivo analisar a assistência às pessoas com transtornos mentais em conflito com a lei na perspectiva de gestores e profissionais de saúde. Trata-se de um estudo de caso, de abordagem qualitativa, realizado em janeiro de 2020, com 10 profissionais que atuavam no Hospital de Custódia e Tratamento Psiquiátrico do Estado do Rio Grande do Norte. Para coleta de dados, utilizou-se um questionário sociodemográfico e entrevista semiestruturada. O conteúdo textual decorrente das entrevistas foi submetido à análise textual lexicográfica, com auxílio do software IRAMUTEQ, e a análise dos dados foi realizada a partir de literatura pertinente. Emergiram três categorias: As mudanças nas relações de trabalho e o impacto na assistência; A organização da Rede de Cuidado; e A assistência intramuros e os entraves para desinstitucionalização. Conclui-se que a assistência às pessoas com transtornos mentais em conflito com a lei é influenciada pelas relações de trabalho; tem dificuldades relacionadas à estrutura física e à dinâmica das instituições; enfrenta entraves para garantir a desinstitucionalização, ao passo que fragmenta os vínculos e não implementa o Projeto Terapêutico Singular. Todavia, esforços têm sido empreendidos para articular a rede de cuidado de base territorial.

Abstract The study aimed to analyze the care of people with mental disorders in conflict with the law from the perspective of managers and health professionals. This is a qualitative case study conducted in January 2020 with 10 professionals working at the Psychiatric Custody and Treatment Hospital of the State of Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil. For data collection, a sociodemographic questionnaire and semi-structured interview were used. The textual content resulting from the interviews was submitted to lexicographic textual analysis, with the help of the IRAMUTEQ software and data analysis was performed based on pertinent literature. Three categories emerged: Changes in work relationships and impact on care; The organization of the Care Network; and Intra-wall care and barriers to deinstitutionalisation. It is concluded that the care for people with mental disorders in conflict with the law is influenced by work relationships; has difficulties related to the physical structure and dynamics of institutions; it faces obstacles to ensure deinstitutionalization while fragmenting ties and not implementing the Singular Therapeutic Project. However, efforts have been made to articulate the territorial-based care network.
