    ABSTRACT

    Objective:

    to construct and validate an educational booklet on high dose rate gynecological brachytherapy (HDR) for women with gynecologic cancer.

    Methods:

    a methodological study, with the construction and validity of a booklet based on the Doak, Doak and Root theoretical-methodological framework. Content and appearance validity was guided by the Delphi technique, by 11 judges, selected using Jasper’s criteria. Afterwards, clinical validity was carried out with the target population.

    Results:

    the booklet, built from evidence from an integrative review, validated with judges, obtained an overall CVI of 0.98. After clinical validity with 27 women, it presents 24 sheets with illustrations produced by a graphic designer, subdivided into topics: gynecological system anatomy and gynecological cancer epidemiology, gynecological brachytherapy definition, therapeutic steps, approach to side effects and management, and two pages for notes.

    Conclusions:

    the booklet has validity for use in HDR gynecological brachytherapy treatment.

    ABSTRACT

    Objective:

    to report the construction of an educational technology to promote non-violent communication for health professionals.

    Methods:

    an experience report on the development of an educational technology on non-violent communication for health professionals, prepared by members of a social university extension project. The Plan-Do-Study-Act cycle was used as a process or product management procedure.

    Results:

    two complete management method cycles were performed. A mini almanac was generated as a final product, which addressed the main elements of non-violent communication, an example of its use in everyday life, hobbies and interspersed activities.

    Conclusion:

    educational technology construction (mini almanac) by members of a university extension project was facilitated using the Plan-Do-Study-Act cycle, proving to be a resource for disseminating non-violent communication in health work and promoting a culture of peace.

    ABSTRACT

    Objective:

    to assess nursing students’ emotions undergoing maternal-child clinical simulation.

    Methods:

    an observational study, carried out between June and July 2019. The Focus Group technique was used, with 28 nursing students, randomly distributed into three groups, with qualitative (Bardin technique) and quantitative data (Artificial Intelligence) analysis, to analyze emotions through facial expressions, tone of voice and description of speeches.

    Results:

    we defined two categories: “It was not easy, it was very stressful”; and “Very valuable experience”. In Artificial Intelligence, emotional distribution between face, voice and speech revealed a prevalence of negative valence, medium-high degree of passivity, medium power to control the situation and medium-high degree of obstruction in task accomplishment.

    Final considerations:

    this study revealed an oscillation between positive and negative emotions, and shows to the importance of recognizing them in the teaching-learning process in mother-child simulation.

    The use of toys by nursing as a therapeutic resource in the care of hospitalized children

    ABSTRACT

    Objectives:

    to describe the use of toys by nursing during the care of children in the inpatient unit; to analyze the factors that influence the use of therapeutic toys by nursing in the care of hospitalized children.

    Methods:

    qualitative research, conducted in a pediatric hospital in Rio de Janeiro between July and August 2019. Semi-structured interview and thematic analysis were used as methodological procedure.

    Results:

    the 12 nurses and 7 nursing technicians revealed minimizing fear, relieving tension, and creating a bond between the child and the professional as the main benefits; they use as resources: children’s toys, hospital materials, cartoons, and children’s videos. The high demand for work, deficit of human resources, and appropriate ludic materials are factors that interfere with the use of toys as a therapeutic resource.

    Final Considerations:

    although the participants recognize the importance of the toy as a therapeutic resource, there is no systematization of its use in pediatric practice.

    Conclusions:

    despite adversities, such as the precariousness of health institutions, inadequate working conditions for nurses, lack of basic items of individual protection, negative feelings and hopelessness, these professionals used their knowledge, skills and innovations in the act of caring, which contributed to reconstructing their professional identity.

    ABSTRACT

    Objectives:

    to identify and characterize the care provided to adolescents admitted to an emergency department due to a suicide attempt.

    Methods:

    an observational, cross-sectional, descriptive study with a retrospective approach, carried out with medical records of adolescents aged 10 to 19 admitted for suicide attempts, between January 2015 and July 2020, in an emergency department. Data were subjected to descriptive and inferential analysis.

    Results:

    eighty-eight service occurrences were identified, mainly to females, exposed to multiple risk factors. Exogenous intoxication was the main method used, occurring at home and on weekdays. There were systemic repercussions, requiring multiple interventions and hospitalizations. Only 26% of cases were notified.

    Conclusions:

    adolescents treated for suicide attempts were exposed to multiple risk factors, with intoxication as the main means used. There is concern about the underreporting of cases and the logic of clinical care and medicalization.

    Spiritual well-being, symptoms and performance of patients under palliative care

    ABSTRACT

    Objectives:

    to assess the relationship between spiritual well-being, symptoms and performance of patients under palliative care.

    Methods:

    this is a descriptive correlational study, conducted with 135 patients seen in palliative care outpatient clinics. Karnofsky Performance Status Scale, Edmonton Symptom Assessment Scale, Spirituality Scale and Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale were used. Data were submitted to descriptive statistical analysis and Spearman’s correlation.

    Results:

    among participants, 68.2% were cancer patients. The most prevalent symptoms were changes in well-being (65.2%), anxiety (63.7%), sadness (63%) and fatigue (63%). Sadness, dyspnea, sleepiness, anxiety and depression presented weak to moderate correlation with spiritual well-being. Symptom overload showed weak negative correlation with performance.

    Conclusions:

    symptom intensification was correlated with worsening in spiritual well-being perception. The reduction in performance was related to increased number of symptoms, especially depression and anxiety.

    ABSTRACT

    Objective:

    to analyze scientific evidence on moral courage and related factors among nursing undergraduate students.

    Method:

    the protocol of this scoping review was registered on Open Science Framework. A search was performed in five databases, according to the method provided by Joanna Briggs Institute Reviewers, the mnemonic strategy Population, Concept and Context, and a specific checklist.

    Results:

    a total of 2,812 results were identified, but only nine studies were eligible and presented three thematic approaches: Moral courage from the perspective of nursing students; Moral courage and related factors; and The teaching of moral courage in the training of nursing students. The factors related to moral courage include moral distress, moral sensitivity, age, and having a previous degree in the health field.

    Final Considerations:

    few studies were found with a low evidence level. Most were performed in developed countries, indicating some gaps that need to be addressed in the future.
