Objective:
To construct and validate an educational technology (ET) on fatigue and non-pharmacological strategies for the management of this symptom in people with cancer undergoing outpatient antineoplastic chemotherapy.
Method:
This is a methodological study composed of three stages: 1) elaboration of the ET using the theoretical-methodological model of Doak, Doak and Root; 2) validation of content and appearance by seven nurses via the content validity index (CVI); and 3) a pilot test with 10 patients.
Results:
The ET “Knowing and coping with fatigue” contemplates the definition of fatigue, its causes and the interventions of physical exercise practice, sleep hygiene, energy conservation and behavioral intervention. The overall CVI obtained with the judges was 0.95.
Conclusion:
The ET presented content and appearance validity for health education regarding fatigue related to antineoplastic chemotherapy in outpatient cancer patients.

Objective:
to identify studies about strategies for prevention of ventilator-associated pneumonia deployed in health services and classify their level of evidence.
Method:
integrative review of the literature, in 7 databases, which included the following descriptors: Prevention and Control AND Pneumonia Ventilator-Associated AND Intensive Care Units AND Bundle AND Patient Care.
Results:
twenty-three scientific productions were included. Of the preventive measures identified, 9 (39.1%) correspond from three to five strategies. The most frequent were: 22 (95.6%) lying with head elevated, 19 (82.6%) oral hygiene with chlorhexidine and 14 (60.8%) reduction of sedation whenever possible.
Final Consideration:
the application of measures based on scientific evidence is proven to be effective when carried out in conjunction, impacting the reduction of the incidence of ventilator-associated pneumonia.
