Transcripts
a Ádila completou 40 anos e como muitas
mulheres da mesma faix etária foi
realizar a mamografia Esta é a primeira
vez que ela faz o procedimento e foi ao
ambulatório médico de Especialidades de
São José dos Campos um exame simples e
rápido mas que auxilia no diagnóstico do
câncer de mama como eu moro na zona
rural para mim é mais difícil então
geralmente a minha agente de saúde fica
aha tá chegando no tempo bora marcar aí
ela marca para mim eu acabo Vindo fazer
essas coisas e a miografia é a primeira
vez como já cheguei aos 40 Então já tem
40as né então mas aí ela falou não Adila
já tá na idade de fazer vamos começar
para ter certinho já foi muito bom eu
tirei todas as dúvidas eu tava até
preocupada né querendo não a minha
cunhada ela tem um nódulo e ela acaba
tendo que investigar essas coisas então
ela já me explicou certinho que se
aparecesse alguma coisa ela já falaria é
bacana foi muito bom na verdade já vem
com medo Ainda mais se na primeira vez a
gente já vem com um monte de dúvidas e
quando ela chega e explica sai bem
melhor toda a orientação sobre o
procedimento foi dada pela Bruna que é
responsável por acolher as pacientes e
fazer a mamografia a mamografia é o
primeiro exame da linha de cuidados de
câncer de mama do ambulatório o processo
atual de Diagnóstico oncológico
completou um ano de implementação e
ajudou a reduzir o tempo de espera por
resultados
nossa linha de de cuidados de mama a
gente tem dois funcionamentos diferentes
Vamos eu vou explicar mais ou menos
Então a gente tem o serviço de da
mamografia em que a gente oferta cerca
de 700 exames de mamografia por mês
considerando as faltas tudo acaba
fazendo cerca de 400 a 400 exames de
mamografia por mês todas essas pacientes
a gente vai após o laudo Caso seja
identificado qualquer tipo de alteração
essas pacientes são convocadas pelo nos
nos pelo nosso agendamento e a gente
acaba fazendo os outros exames
complementares de investigação se for
necessário uma outra mamografia ou uma
outra ou uma outra Sonografia ou até
mesmo uma biópsia a gente consegue fazer
tudo isso eh tudo no mesmo dia e o outro
jeito eh de funcionamento né a outra
porta de entrada das pacientes são os
pacientes que fizeram exames no próprio
município e esses exames tiveram alguma
alteração e elas são encaminhadas para
avaliação do mastologista E aí a gente
também eh no nosso modelo conseguimos
fazer tudo no mesmo dia ainda segundo o
mastologista o principal objetivo do
diagnóstico precoce é iniciar o quanto
antes o tratamento oncológico e oferecer
mais conforto emocional a paciente antes
a gente tinha um serviço que era tudo
fragmentado então para fazer todos esses
processos de consultas exames
complementares biópsia muitas vezes a
paciente tinha que vir cerca de quatro
assim CCO vezes e isso acabava
demandando um período de mais ou menos
uns dois meses até eu ter o resultado
final com essa mudança com com esse
projeto novo que a gente tem a gente
consegue entregar o resultado em cerca
de três às vezes quatro semanas então a
gente teve uma redução bem significativa
que isso faz muita diferença nos casos
positivos a dona Vanilda também fez a
mamografia no am através do alto exame
ela identificou um nódulo e procurou
atendimento de saúde para verificar a
alteração eu senti um caroço no peito
daí eu fui até o meu postinho aí cheguei
lá um médico meu falou assim Ah vamos
pedir uma homografia daí eu peguei
caminhou pelo am aí eu vim aqui fiz e e
hoje eu tô aqui para ver o resultado do
meu caroço que saiu no seio então como
eu sou de São
Francisco aqui o processo dos exames
para mim eu gostei porque tá sendo muito
mais rápido porque lá de demora muito
para est atendendo né então eles me
passaram eu para vir fazer aqui e eu tô
achando que aqui tá sendo mais rápido
agora se for para sair mais rápido ainda
a gente prefere né que seja mais rápido
a gente saber qual é o problema da gente
né que a gente tem que cuidar da saúde
então a gente quer que as coisas anda
mais depressa além de São José dos
Campos o ambulatório atende pacientes de
outras sete cidades da região como
Jacareí Caçapava Jambeiro Santa Branca
Paraibuna Igaratá e Monteiro Lobato a
linha de atendimento do câncer de mama
realizou nos cinco primeiros meses deste
ano 193 biópsias na unidade de São José
sendo 42 positivas para câncer o exame
que hoje a gente é o único exame que os
estudos demonstraram realmente uma
redução no risco de mortalidade por
câncer de mama a gente tem a
recomendação que de iniciar os exames
né de seriam os exames de rastreamento
de uma maneira anual uma vez por ano a
partir dos 40 anos para uma população
geral mfia ele é um exame capaz de fazer
uma detecção precoce então a mamografia
ela não vai causar o câncer de mama mas
naquelas mulheres que vão desenvolver a
doença a gente consegue fazer um
diagnóstico mais no início da doença e a
gente sabe que quanto mais cedo eu
consigo diagnosticar
é maior a chance de cura e muitas vezes
até os tratamentos acabam sendo menos
intensos também a gente pode às vezes de
poupar as pacientes de uma quimioterapia
ou uma cirurgia menos extensa
Simplesmente por ter feito o diagnóstico
mais cedo e olha só o diagnóstico
precoce do câncer de mama é muito
importante porque deixa o tratamento
mais eficaz e quando descoberto Logo no
início as chances de cura podem chegar a
95% por isso é fundamental fazer os
exames regulares para detecção da doença
