Objective:
To describe and analyze the national and international scientific production on Nursing care for the transgender or gender-variance population.
Method:
Integrative review of the literature, conducted throughout the Virtual Health Library, Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature, Public Medline and Web of Science databases, without pre-established periods of time and using the descriptors "Transgender AND ‘Nursing Assistance'" and "Transgender AND ‘Nursing care'".
Results:
We included 11 articles, published between 2005 and 2016, broadly North American with only one Brazilian, so categorized: I- Fragility in the care of transgender people; II - Health of the transgender population: general and specific demands; III- Public health policies for transgender people. Transgender people have not found yet answers to their health demands; they are victims of prejudices and violence in services and seek care in extreme cases of sickness.
Final considerations:
Understanding their needs is primordial to build knowledge and practices that support nursing care.

Objective:
To report the experience of implementation of a clinical equipment of health care production to homeless people, denominated Street Outreach Office.
Method:
Experience report in the city of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
Results:
The Street Outreach Office implementation resulted from a demand for health care practices for homeless people. This implementation had intersectoral articulations, causing health professionals to carry out street care practices, which led them to strive for public policies, to rethink their actions in order to increase the resolution of care to this population.
Conclusion:
We should emphasize the importance of health professionals to reinvent their practices, daily, seeking partnerships and acquisition of new knowledge in order to achieve results that can reduce the demands of these individuals throughout their life routes.

Objective:
To analyze the technologies of mental health care used in the practices and processes that constitute Primary Health Care from the discourses of nurses of the Family Health Strategy.
Method:
Qualitative approach based on the dialectical hermeneutic composition which aims to perform a comprehensive and critical analysis of semi-structured interviews, and free field observation.
Results:
From the empirical material analyzed, two essential analytical categories emerged: “Health technologies used in PHC for the care of users with psychological distress” and “To stop medicating suffering and to Train professionals”.
Final considerations:
The study pointed the reception and matrixing as the main technologies of care exercised in the interface of Primary Health Care with Mental Health. However, there was a need for reinforcing actions for matrixing, for training in order to improve the professionals’ autonomy in face of this demand, as well as the importance of stop medicating individuals with psychological distress.

Objective:
To analyze the demands in the field of mental health from the perspective of teenagers.
Method:
A descriptive study with a qualitative approach, having comprehensiveness as an analytical category. It was carried out with 21 teenagers of both genders, students of two public schools of a municipality of the countryside of Bahia state. The empirical material was produced through reflection workshops and analyzed through the technique of Discourse Analysis.
Results:
Teenagers value the indissociability between body and mind, recognize lack of attention to the psychological dimension in the health network, and point to mental disorders as resulting from contexts of life and lack of Health Care.
Conclusion:
Health services need to be structured to attract teenagers, to recognize singularities through professionals trained in welcoming, listening and accountability. It is urgent to fulfill what is defined in public policies and in specific programs, and that comprehensiveness has a centrality as a perspective to be realized.

Objective:
to understand the conception of the elderly and their caregivers about the accessibility to health mediated by the service in Emergency Care Units.
Methodo:
a qualitative study conducted with 25 elderly patients and caregivers at Emergency Care Units in a city of Paraná, using Grounded Theory as a methodological reference.
Results:
According to the participants, the resources available in these services guarantee medical consultation and provide access to exams and medicines. Such resources have attracted patients and caused excess demand, which implies a set of compromising factors for the quality of care in these services.
Final considerations:
Investments in the restructuring of the care network, especially in primary care, with an increase in the number of consultations and the creation of a bond, can contribute to the emergency care units achieving the goal of access to qualified assistance to the elderly population.

Objective:
To understand the meaning of religion/religiosity for the elderly.
Method:
A qualitative, phenomenological study, based on Martin Heidegger. Thirteen older women registered in an Urban Social Center of Salvador, Bahia, Brazil aged between 60 and 84 years participated in the study. The collection of testimonies was carried out from November 2013 to May 2014 through phenomenological interviews.
Results:
Hermeneutics has unveiled the unit of meaning: Meanings of religion/religiosity in the daily life of the elderly. Religion/religiosity offers comfort and well-being to the elderly person, helping to overcome changes arising from the aging process.
Final considerations:
The nurse, while providing care, should expand his/her vision in relation to the subjectivity of the elderly, in order to understand that religion/religiosity gives meaning to their existence.

Objective:
To know the main health guidance needs of family members of children with sickle cell disease.
Method:
Qualitative research, developed in a pediatric reference hospital of Ceará State, between April and May 2017, through the participation of 12 family members of children with sickle cell disease. The data were collected through semi-structured interviewees and analyzed according to the Bardin’s Thematic Categorical Analysis.
Results:
The relatives had divergent opinions about what this pathology would be and expressed the expectation of being broadly guided, from general information (signs and symptoms) to more complex ones about the disease, including major complications and ways of preventing them.
Final considerations:
The health fragility due to the punctual and/or meager guidance provided to family members reflects the importance of increasing knowledge and clarifying doubts of these relatives about the disease, which makes it urgent to develop health education strategies by multiprofessional teams.

Objective:
Reflect on the essence of care in health vulnerability from the phenomenological perspective of Martin Heidegger.
Method:
Theoretical-reflexive study, anchored in three essential parts: 1) Care in Heidegger; 2) The essence of care in health vulnerability; And 3) Nursing care actions on health vulnerability.
Results:
Vulnerability must be recognized as an indelible trait of the human condition and has its constituents in the human being, co-presence and care. Caring is an interactive process that reveals itself in the relationship with the other. Respecting the integrity of the Being in vulnerability must be a priority in nursing care, through behaviors that privilege the Being.
Conclusion:
Understanding ontological care and its relation to vulnerability under Heidegger’s phenomenological view allowed us to uncover the facets of care in health vulnerability by adding to the nursing knowledge body a comprehensive and reflective perspective.
