Objective:
to monitor bacterial strains of Staphylococcus aureus that are resistant or not to oxacillin in nursing undergraduate students, with an emphasis on the process of colonization.
Method:
cross-sectional prevalence study carried out with 138 nursing students. The biological samples of the nasal cavity were collected in June 2015, by means of sterile swabs, which were subsequently submitted to confirmatory tests of catalase and coagulase. Isolated Staphylococcus aureus had their sensitivity profile determined by means of the Kirby Bauer method. Descriptive, univariate and bivariate analyses were performed.
Results:
the prevalence of Staphylococcus aureus was 21.7. Regarding the resistance profile, 24.1% of strains were resistant to oxacillin, with ampicillin being the antimicrobial with the greatest resistance (82.8%).
Conclusion:
the nasal cavity is an important bacterial flora of S. aureus in nursing students. The profile of isolated strains highlights the increase of Staphylococcus aureus resistance to antimicrobials such as oxacillin.

Objective:
to identify the factors associated with the occurrence of adverse events in critical elderly patients admitted to intensive care unit according to demographic and clinical characteristics.
Method:
a retrospective cohort study was conducted in nine units of a teaching hospital. Data were collected from medical records and from monitoring of nursing shift change. We used the t-test/Mann-Whitney, chi-square and logistic regression to test associations. Significance level of 5% was used.
Results:
out of the 315 elderly, 94 experienced events. Those who experienced events were men (60.6%) with mean age of 70.7 years, length of hospital stay of 10.6 days and survivors (61.7%). Most of the 183 events were clinical processes and procedures (37.1%). There was an association between adverse event and length of hospital stay in the unit (p=0.000; OR=1.10, 95% CI [1.06, 1.14]).
Conclusion:
the identification of associated events and factors in the elderly subsidize the prevention of these occurrences before the vulnerability of this age group.

Objective:
to understand the difficulties and limitations in the implementation of advance directives of will in the hospital context.
Method:
qualitative, exploratory and descriptive study conducted by means of semi-structured interviews with nurses, resident physicians and family caregivers. The data were analyzed by using discursive textual analysis based on the framework of bioethics principles.
Results:
the following categories emerged: Terminality as an expression of loss and cure as an option for care; concerns about legal implications; advance directives of will demand patient autonomy and proper communication.
Conclusion:
limitations and difficulties in practice of advance directives of will from the perspective of the participants show, apart from countless conflicts and dilemmas regarding end-of life matters, that impending death experiences obstruct patients’ wishes.

Objective:
to understand the experience and coping strategies in relatives of drug addicts.
Method:
a study was developed with 87 relatives of addicts, registered in two Basic Health Units. The focus group was used as the study method, and content analysis was applied.
Results:
four categories were chosen: perception of relatives about the drug addiction of their family members; feelings and attitudes related to being a relative of an addict; difficulties found in the process; and, coping strategies. The findings reflected the difficulty when mentioning the subject, and the need of being cared for. Relatives believed that the addict needs to have the will to get into treatment, and they faced challenges in dealing with sporadic disappearances. They pointed to feelings of pity, impotence, disgust, hate, shame, fear of aggressiveness, and humiliation.
Conclusion:
the biggest difficulties were dealing with relapses, and the lack of public resources. Religiosity and faith, isolation and advice were used as coping strategies; ambivalence in thoughts and attitudes was demonstrated.

Objectives:
to analyze the legislation issued during the COVID-19 pandemic for nursing education and immediate consequences.
Methods:
documentary research, whose source was the legislation issued for nursing education during the COVID-19 pandemic. Thirty-two documents were analyzed and submitted to a collection instrument.
Results:
contradictions and consequences for nursing education following the guidelines and law of guidelines and bases were revealed. The consequences of the law affected the quality of teaching, equal access, exemption from minimum school days and course abbreviation. Regarding the guidelines, there was a lack of conditions for developing skills, in addition to the attempt to update them. Concerning internships, acting during the pandemic put students at risk, and their abbreviation prevented them from consolidating knowledge and skills.
Final Considerations:
remote teaching did not guarantee the quality and equality of teaching, weakened the development of skills, not taking into account nursing’s educational needs.

to validate the content of a guidance guide on self-care in the postoperative period of breast surgery for breast cancer.
Methods:
a methodological study with content validity, carried out with 15 expert nurses and physiotherapists, between May and July 2022. Recruitment took place from the Lattes Platform, using snowball sampling. The level of relevance and representativeness for each item was verified using the Content Validity Index (CVI). It was considered valid when CVI was equal to or greater than 78% (0.78).
Results:
from the initial total of 37 items, two were excluded, as they had insufficient practical relevance and theoretical relevance, and another five items which, although presenting a CVI lower than the established cut-off, were suggested to be rewritten and grouped with other similar items.
Conclusions:
thirty items were considered valid and demonstrated important and significant characteristics, constituting suitable material for application in clinical practice.

the prevalence of sarcopenia was 32.6% (CC) and 18.1% (ASMMI). There was no association between sarcopenia and QoL. Both handgrip strength (r=0.25) and GS (r=0.36) showed a correlation with physical domain.
Conclusions:
sarcopenia was expressive, and the aspects of functionality determine the physical impairment in this population.

Objective:
to construct and validate an educational booklet for self-care of patients in the postoperative period of cardiac surgery
Methods:
methodological study, including bibliographic survey, construction of the booklet and validation with judges and the target audience. For validation with judges, the Health Educational Content Validation Instrument was used, and with the target audience, an instrument was used with questions related to organization, writing style, appearance and motivation. To analyze the judges’ answers, the content validation index was used
Results:
the booklet was prepared with 14 topics. The content validation index among the eight judges was 1 and the concordance index among the ten patients was above 80%. The final version of the material was made available in printed format
Conclusion:
the educational booklet was developed and validated by judges and the target audience, serving as an educational support tool for self-care of patients in the postoperative period of cardiac surgery.

Objective:
To map the current status of parameters and tools to assess quality of care related to peripheral venous catheter use in adults.
Methods:
Scoping review, conducted in 2022 in the MEDLINE, LILACS, CINAHL and SCOPUS databases and with a publication time limit from 2013 to 2022.
Results:
The sample consisted of 15 articles, summarized in the following categories: Indication, documentation and registration, coverage assessment, connection, stabilization and signs and symptoms inherent to the catheter. The use of a complete instrument, with the domains observed in this review, may have a positive impact on a more effective and safe clinical practice.
Conclusions:
The present review mapped the evidence about the insertion and maintenance of peripheral venous catheters that can be improved with training of good practices and the quality of the team, regarding the use of tools, materials and instruments for the evaluation of care.
