Is there any update command to remove accents from the names saved in the tables, e.g.:

update paciente set 'Ã' = 'A'

of course the column name is not that, just an example.

    No. You would have to use a function. For example: update tabela set coluna = TirarAcentos(coluna). In this function you would try to replace all the required characters and return the text with the substitutions

One should wear it like this:

update tabela set coluna = remove_accents(coluna)
