Specific admission nursing consultation for SARS-CoV-2 in prison units: prevalence and associated factors. | LitMetric

AI Article Synopsis

  • The study aimed to assess how common specific nursing consultations for SARS-CoV-2 are among COVID-19-infected individuals in Central Brazil's prisons, and to identify related factors.
  • Analysis involved interviews and antibody tests from May to September 2020, revealing that 21.3% of 1,272 prisoners tested positive for SARS-CoV-2, but only 10.3% received nursing consultations.
  • Key symptoms included loss of taste and smell, body aches, and fever, with significant associations found between consulting and contact with symptomatic individuals, highlighting the need for improved nursing strategies in closed environments.

Article Abstract

Objective: To estimate the prevalence and factors associated with the performance of specific admission nursing consultations for SARS-CoV-2 in individuals deprived of liberty with COVID-19 in prison units in Central Brazil.

Method: Analytical cross-sectional study conducted between May and September 2020 through individual interviews and lateral flow immunochromatography tests to detect IgM/IgG antibodies for SARS-CoV-2. The analysis was performed using the Chi-square or Fischer's exact tests, with the outcome being the specific admission nursing consultation for SARS-CoV-2.

Results: Among the 1,272 individuals investigated, 21.3% (95% CI: 19.1-23.6) tested positive for antibodies against SARS-CoV-2. Of these, 10.3% (95% CI: 7.0-14.6) underwent a specific nursing consultation for SARS-CoV-2. The most prevalent signs and symptoms were loss of taste (33.2%) and smell (32.8%), body aches (28.8%), and fever (28.4%). The analysis indicated associations between contact with symptomatic COVID-19 case (p=0.039), contact in the yard with a prisoner with COVID-19 (p=0.012), and sore throat (p=0.010), with the outcome.

Conclusions: The low prevalence of specific nursing consultations for SARS-CoV-2 and the high prevalence of COVID-19 reinforce the need for mandatory implementation of this strategy in groups living in closed environments. Furthermore, nursing consultations based on the nursing process must be adopted as a public health measure.
