Hospitais em crise : uma etnografia dos cirurgiões gerais em Portugal

Abstract

Esta investigação tem como objetivo a reflexão sobre o impacto de fatores externos como as restrições de ordem orçamental (inicialmente impostas pelo Programa de Ajustamento da Troika e que se mantêm na atualidade) e o aparecimento do vírus SARS-CoV-2 (que representa a maior e mais lenta crise mundial de saúde pública do século XXI) na atividade dos cirurgiões gerais em Portugal. Importa determinar as suas consequências na organização Hospital e na ordem aí estabelecida, nas tarefas médicas, bem como no engrossar das listas de espera e no agravamento da doença cirúrgica. Através da utilização de uma abordagem mista, que combina fontes de dados qualitativas (como entrevistas semiestruturadas aos atores e principais stakeholders, ações de shadowing, observação participante e não participante e análise documental) e quantitativas (inquérito aos cirurgiões gerais), o estudo procura aferir os reais efeitos na atividade cirúrgica dos setores público e privado em diferentes cenários, como a ausência de recursos materiais, humanos e de equipamentos de proteção individual, essenciais ao lidar com a pandemia COVID-19. Identificamos momentos críticos e hostis ao desempenho da expertise destes especialistas (alcançada através de uma profissionalização prolongada no tempo e em constante revisão), potenciados por barreiras de ordem económica e de saúde pública e apuramos existirem limitações na ação e na tomada de decisão dos cirurgiões sobre o melhor tratamento para os seus doentes.

This investigation aims to reflect on the impact of external factors such as budgetary restrictions (initially imposed by the Troika Adjustment Program and which are currently maintained) and the emergence of the SARS-CoV-2 virus (which represents the largest and slower global public health crisis of the 21st century) interfered in the activity of general surgeons in Portugal. It is important to determine its consequences on the organization named Hospital and its established order, in the medical tasks, as well as on the increase in waiting lists and the worsening of the surgical disease. Through the use of a mixed approach, which combines qualitative data sources (such as semi-structured interviews with actors and main stakeholders, shadowing actions, participant and non-participant observation and document analysis) and quantitative (a survey for general surgeons), the study seeks to assess the real effects on surgical activity in the public and private sectors in different scenarios, such as the absence of material, human resources and essential personal protective equipments when dealing with the COVID-19 pandemic. We have identified critical and hostile moments to the performance of the expertise of this specialists (achieved through a prolonged professionalization in time and constant review), boosted by economic and public health barriers and found out limitations in the action and decision-making of surgeons concerning the best treatment for their patients.
