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 investigate studies that adopted the multilevel analysis model to identify behavioral and structural risk factors associated with HIV infection.
Methods:
an integrative review of the literature with studies available in full, obtained from EMBASE, CINAHL, Pubmed, and Scopus, whose selected descriptors were the indexed terms: “HIV”, “multilevel analysis” and “behavior”.
Results:
the search resulted in 236 studies. Out of these, ten studies comprised the sample. Economic disadvantage, neighborhood characteristics, housing instability, incarceration, transactional sex, multiple partners, substance abuse, and age at first intercourse were classified as structural and behavioral risk factors for HIV. Reduced socioeconomic disadvantage, provision of housing stability, and condom use were associated with protective factors for HIV exposure.
Conclusions:
by applying the multilevel model in risk factor research studies, it was possible to identify the structural and behavioral elements of HIV risk.

Objectives:
to analyze patient safety culture from nursing professionals’ perception at a university hospital, by assessing the convergence between the Safety Attitudes Questionnaire and the Hospital Survey on Patient Safety Culture.
Methods:
a cross-sectional study, with 434 nursing professionals. Data collection took place through the application of both instruments. Descriptive and inferential statistics were used.
Results:
in the Hospital Survey on Patient Safety Culture, the “teamwork within the units” dimension was considered a strong area of patient safety. In the Safety Attitudes Questionnaire, the “job satisfaction” and “perception of stress” domains reached the score for a good safety culture. Patient safety culture perception is correlated, in both instruments, with high magnitude.
Conclusions:
the two instruments converge towards a similar assessment of patient safety culture.

Objectives:
to analyze the psychosocial factors correlated with the behavioral intention of people with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) towards insulin use.
Methods:
a cross-sectional study; a validated instrument based on the Theory of Planned Behavior was used to identify the direct measures (attitude, subjective norm and perceived control), indirect measures (behavioral, normative and control beliefs) and behavioral intention for the use of insulin. Descriptive analysis and Spearman’s correlation were performed for data analysis.
Results:
a total of 211 individuals participated in the study, with a positive median of behavioral intention. Attitude, normative and behavioral beliefs were the psychosocial factors that presented a significant correlation (r=0.16, r=-0,15 and r=0.25, respectively; p<0.05) with the intention.
Conclusions:
there is a positive behavioral intention in the use of insulin by people with T2DM. Attitude, normative beliefs and behavioral beliefs have a low magnitude correlation with the intention of people with T2DM to use insulin.

Objective:
to identify the prevalence and associations of polypharmacy and potentially inappropriate medication use among older adults with hypertension treated in primary care.
Methods:
a cross-sectional study carried out with older adults with hypertension treated at a Family Health Strategy unit. Data collection included analysis of medical records, interviews and multidimensional assessment of older adults. Socio-demographic information and clinical variables were collected. Statistical analysis was performed by multiple logistic regression.
Results:
polypharmacy prevalence was 38.09%, and potentially inappropriate medication (PIM), 28.57%. There was a significant association between polypharmacy and PIM use, altered sleep and ethnicity. PIM use was associated with polypharmacy, worse family functioning, and absence of a caregiver. Cognitive decline reduces the prevalence of these medications.
Conclusions:
polypharmacy and PIM use among older adults with hypertension represent a problem in this population, especially among the most vulnerable.

Objective:
to investigate the incidence of pressure injury in cancer patients of an intensive care unit.
Method:
A longitudinal study with 105 patients admitted to an oncological intensive care unit. The incidence rate was calculated as the number of events per 100 patient-days. Cumulative incidence was calculated both globally and according to selected characteristics, and submitted to hypothesis tests.
Results:
incidence rate per 100 patient-days was 1.32, and global cumulative incidence was 29.5%. A higher incidence was observed in patients with chronic diseases who had at least one episode of diarrhea, received enteral nutrition, and took vasoactive or sedative drugs for a prolonged period of time. Regarding type of tumour and antineoplastic treatments, no differences in incidence were observed.
Conclusion:
A high cumulative global incidence of pressure lesion was reported in cancer patients admitted to the intensive care unit, although tumour characteristics and antineoplastic treatments did not affect incidence.

Objective:
To analyze the factors associated with the performance of episiotomy.
Methods:
Cross-sectional study, developed with data from the research “Born in Belo Horizonte: Labor and birth survey, “conducted with 577 women who had their children via vaginal birth. In order to verify the magnitude of the association between episiotomy and its possible determinants, logistic regression models were constructed to estimate the odds ratio.
Results:
Episiotomy was performed in 26.34% of women, and 59.21% knew they had been subjected to it. We observed that younger women, primiparous women, women assisted by a professional other than the obstetric nurse and women who had their babies in a private hospital have an increased chance of being submitted to this procedure.
Conclusion:
Considering the rates of episiotomy, this study highlights the need for the absolute contraindication to indiscriminate performing it.

Objective:
To adapt and validate the content of the Advanced Practice Nursing Competency Assessment Instrument (APNCAI) to Brazilian culture.
Methods:
This is a methodological study that followed the stages of translation, synthesis, back translation, evaluation by a committee of five specialists, pre-test with 31 nurses, and evaluation by the author of the original instrument. The Content Validity Index (minimum 0.90) and the modified Kappa (minimum 0.74) were calculated to evaluate the content.
Result:
In the first round of content evaluation, 18 items had to be altered because they did not reach the minimum values established. Three items have not reached a consensus in the second round and had to be sent to the author of the original version. In the pre-test, 13 items were returned to the specialists because they suffered content changes.
Conclusion:
The Advanced Practice Nursing Competency Assessment Instrument (APNCAI) – Brazilian version was cross-culturally adapted, and its content was validated.

Objective:
To analyze the concept of “frailty syndrome” in the literature, according to the method proposed by Walker and Avant.
Methods:
It is a concept analysis, guided by the method proposed by Walker and Avant, made operational through an integrative literature review. The search in a scientific database was carried out using the descriptors: Frail elderly, syndrome, phenotype, geriatric assessment, and aging. The literary corpus comprised 66 studies. Results: The study found the antecedents and attributes (categorized as physical, sociodemographic, and behavioral/environmental) that integrate the signs and symptoms evidenced in the “frailty syndrome,” as well as the consequences of this concept. The variables were analyzed with emphasis on the conceptions that influence the frailty process of the elderly.
Conclusion:
The study demonstrated the complexity arising from the multifactorial genesis of the referred syndrome, emphasizing the specificities of the elderly’s frailty. However, we recommend conducting further research involving the phenomenon in question to understand the construct better.

Objective:
to evaluate the association of Obstetric Nursing in the best practices of delivery and birth care in maternity hospitals.
Method:
a cross-sectional study, with 666 women selected for delivery. Parturition obstetric practices performed by professionals were categorized into: clearly useful practices that should be encouraged, practices that are clearly harmful or ineffective and that should be eliminated and practices used inappropriately at the time of parturition.
Results:
clearly useful practices were used in greater proportions in the hospitals that had Obstetric Nursing working, while clearly harmful practices and those used inappropriately were practiced in smaller proportions in hospitals that had Obstetric Nursing, both with statistical difference.
Conclusion:
institutions with Obstetric Nursing adopt better practices of delivery and birth care, based on scientific evidence, when compared to those that do not act.
