Objective:
To analyze the evidence on the influence of Lean and/or Six Sigma for process optimization in the perioperative period.
Methods:
Integrative review carried out in the MEDLINE (PubMed), Web of Science, EMBASE, CINAHL, Scopus and LILACS databases on the use of Lean and/or Six Sigma to optimize perioperative processes. The studies included were analyzed in three thematic categories: flow of surgical patients, work process and length of stay.
Results:
The final sample consisted of ten studies, which covered all operative periods. Lean and/or Six Sigma make a significant contribution to optimizing perioperative processes.
Final considerations:
Lean and/or Six Sigma optimize perioperative processes to maximize the achievement of system stability indicators, making it possible to identify potential problems in order to recognize them and propose solutions that can enable the institution of patient-centered care.

Objectives:
to identify, according to students’ perception, controversies related to the term “pesticide” and its influence on health.
Methods:
field research, with qualitative analysis via discursive textual analysis. Collective interviews were carried out with students of ninth grade of elementary school from four rural schools in the western region of Paraná.
Results:
when analyzing students’ statements, it was identified that pesticides are part of their reality and that of the local community Controversies related to pesticides and health arose, with emphasis on the form of production and the understanding of the real harm generated by exposure and use of pesticides.
Conclusions:
approaching pesticides in the context of education and health is essential so that there is a strengthening of discussions, in a critical and contextualized way, in school spaces, expanding the look at the topic as a way of enriching understandings and discourses on the subject.

Objective:
to identify factors that lead the teacher to experience violence in their pedagogical practice in health education.
Method:
research with a qualitative approach, based on the Grounded Theory, conducted with 11 professors of the nursing course of a public university in the central region of Brazil in 2020 and 2021. Online semi-structured interviews were analyzed partially in the light of the Constructivist Grounded Theory.
Results:
factors that lead lecturer to experience violence are characterized by institutional culture, gender, professor’s perception of violence, and the triggers that drive students to commit violence. Social status and inequalities lead to positions of domination and, consequently, create a fertile ground for violence.
Final Considerations:
analyzing violence under Bourdieu’s theory, it is clear that student violence towards lecturer and the reports contained in this study deserve pedagogical reflection. However, it is necessary to include these discussions as a background in teaching environments.

Objectives:
to analyze the level of nurses’ engagement in political advocacy by performing cluster analysis.
Methods:
observational study, with a quantitative approach. A total of 184 nurses working in primary, secondary, and tertiary care in a city in the south of Brazil completed the Policy Advocacy Engagement Scale. Data analysis consisted of descriptive statistics, cluster analysis, analysis of variance, and chi. The Institutional Review Board approved the study.
Results:
four differentiated clusters were found according to professional experience, level of healthcare complexity, and unit. The cluster analysis revealed that patient advocacy for community-based obtained the highest mean, indicating that political advocacy is effective in organizational environments and that professional qualification favors greater engagement in political advocacy.
Conclusions:
the results reveal that nurses play an active role in political advocacy, seeking to promote positive changes in health, especially those working in tertiary care, the nurse group that obtained the highest means.

Objective:
to compare work-related damage between the day and night shifts of nursing workers in at a public hospital.
Methods:
a cross-sectional, and correlational study, conducted with 308 nursing workers from a Brazilian public hospital. Data collection took place from September 2017 to April 2018 using self-administered questionnaires that investigated socio-occupational variables and the effects of work (Work-Related Damage Assessment Scale). Analysis was descriptive and analytical with a 5% significance level.
Results:
during the day shift, the variables that most influenced nursing professionals’ health were body pain, headache, back pain, legs pain, and sleep disorders. When comparing the shifts, it was identified that daytime influences the studied variables more than nighttime. Job tenure was correlated with psychological damage.
Conclusions:
the results showed a greater influence of the day shift on the health of professionals who work in a hospital environment. Job tenure influences psychological damage.

Objectives:
to reflect on the training of teachers in the field of health from the perspective of interprofessional education.
Methods:
an essay based on the dialogue between the scientific literature, the health education inducing policies, and studies in the fields of research and teaching activities in pedagogical projects based on interprofessional education.
Results:
teaching in health is revealed as a social practice that is built on multiple collaborative movements and training moments. In this sense, the presence of echoes and resonances of the inducing policies necessary for the reorientation of health education in the proposals for teacher development is recognized.

Objective:
to assess the effects of the Alpha-Health intervention on health literacy and health habits of elderly people linked to primary care, when compared to usual health care.
Methods:
a quasi-experimental investigation, with mixed methods, with 21 elderly individuals in each group. Alpha-Health was performed by a nurse for five months. The Short Assessment of Health Literacy for Portuguese Speaking Adults, Health Literacy and questions about health habits were used. In the quantitative analysis, the GEE Model was used, and in the qualitative, thematic analysis.
Results:
there was an interaction effect on health literacy scores. Health habits such as vaccination, three meals a day and meat consumption had a statistically significant interaction effect. In the qualitative stage, development in skills of accessing, communicating and assessing information was observed as well as stability in the ability to understand.
Conclusions:
Alpha-Health is an important device for developing elderly’s health literacy.

Objectives:
to analyze the understanding of homeless people living in a city in the countryside of São Paulo about what health is and about their experiences in health services.
Methods:
a qualitative exploratory study developed through interviews with homeless people and a field diary. The data were organized by themes and the findings were compared to a collective health framework.
Results:
the explored themes were: “Being healthy for the homeless population”, “The search for health services” and “Being a user of health services from the perspective of homeless people”. We present the interviewees’ understanding of health and their experiences in healthcare services. Along this path, we outline aspects that show the network’s weaknesses, permeated by prejudices and discrimination.
Final Considerations:
this population has conceptions about health and needs that need to be singularly taken into consideration to facilitate access and care.
