Objective:
To analyze the occurrence of falls in institutionalized elderly addressing the risks, consequences and antecedents.
Method:
Cross-sectional study carried out with 45 older adults in Long-Term Care Facilities for the Older adult in João Pessoa, Brazil, in June and July 2016. A socio-demographic questionnaire and the Berg Balance Scale were applied, classifying as risk of fall scores lower than 45. Descriptive statistics and tests were conducted: independent t-test, Anova (Tukey), Chi-square, Mann Whitney. Statistically significance was p <0.05. Data were processed in SPSS version 19.0.
Results:
A total of 66.7% (30) falls occurred, 20% (9) of them in the external area, with 66.7% (30) of the participants having hypertension as a previous disease and, as consequence, the fracture was highlighted with 11.2% (5). The Berg Scale had different scores when compared to the falls suffered by the elderly and previous diseases influenced the occurrence of falls (p <0.05).
Conclusion:
It is necessary to implement public financing policies or partnerships that allow environments adaptations aiming at reducing the risks of falls.

Objective:
to investigate the association between socio-demographic and clinical factors and the functional capacity of older adults with leprosy.
Method:
cross-sectional analytical study conducted in Fortaleza, Ceará, Brazil, with 77 older adult patients with leprosy in a referral service, through interview, medical records and application of the Katz Index and the Lawton and Brody Scale.
Results:
the mean age was 68.23 years, with prevalence of men, in stable union/married, with mean monthly family income of 2.04 minimum wages, positive bacillary index, clinical dimorphic form and grade zero disability. In the Lawton and Brody scale, independence (58.5%) was predominant and associated to the variables “living arrangement” and “educational attainment”. Total independence (87.0%) was predominant in the Katz Index and statistically associated to the variable monthly family income.
Conclusion:
most of the participants were classified as independent in the instruments used. Furthermore, the instruments pointed to a greater number of associations with socio-demographic and clinical factors not related to leprosy.

Objective:
the purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of telephone-based support for the metabolic control of elderly patients with diabetes mellitus.
Method:
a pragmatic study was conducted in two groups, called G1 (n=36) and G2 (n=27), at a health unit from the countryside of São Paulo state. Patients in G1 group received telephone support over four months, through 16 telephone contacts with educational material; for the G2 group the educational material was mailed.
Results:
significant differences were found. The G1 group showed a reduction of the parameters of fasting glucose, as well as systolic and diastolic blood pressure. In G2 group a modest reduction was noted in some parameters, with no significant difference.
Conclusion:
telephone support was effective to deliver patient education to the diabetic elderly, leading to the reduction of fasting blood glucose. This, combined with other strategies, can contribute to reduce glycated hemoglobin (NCT 01972412).

Objective:
to analyze occurrence of self-harm, sociodemographic profile of victims and referrals in the first 24 months of the COVID-19 pandemic in São Paulo.
Method:
cross-sectional study carried out by the Notifiable Diseases Information System with data on self-harm in São Paulo. The period outlined was March 2020 to February 2022. R (4.0.2) software and chi-square test were used.
Results:
there were 15,946 incidents. Victims were young, white, single, heterosexual women. There was high incidence of people with previous mental disorders more than once and without clear motivation. The method used was poisoning/intoxication. There was a considerable number of referrals to the health network, although not totalitarian.
Conclusion:
the years of greater insecurity in relation to the pandemic have given rise to self-harm cases with peculiar characteristics. Agile health policies must be applied in atypical conditions, such as pandemics, especially for adolescents/young people with previous mental disorders.

Objective:
Describe the activities aimed at achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), implemented by a polytechnic higher education institution, in the northern region of Portugal.
Methods:
This is an experience report from a Higher Education Institution, which characterizes the contribution to the SDGs, within the scope of teaching, research, campus and leadership.
Results:
In total, 1247 activities were mapped, with a preponderance in the “people” dimension (685 activities), with SDG 3 being the most prominent. Scientific articles contribute significantly to the SDGs, with a notable discrepancy between automatic (Scopus) and manual classifications, indicating a tendency to underestimate the impact of nursing studies.
Conclusion:
The results demonstrate the significant contribution of this institution to the SDGs, with a special focus on health and education. This contribution reflects the mission of the institution, which involves training competent and socially conscious health professionals, but simultaneously the need for greater awareness and training of the teaching staff.

This multicentric study utilized qualitative and analytical methods. It was conducted through semi-structured interviews with 139 lead nurses from 10 university hospitals in Brazil. Data analysis included Bardin’s content analysis and the webQDA software.
Results:
The primary category identified was “Nursing Leadership Strategies in the Battle Against COVID-19,” encompassing five subcategories. This category underscored the importance of strategic vision in nursing leadership for combating COVID-19 within hospital settings, as well as the necessity of working collaboratively with their teams and other healthcare professionals.
Final Considerations:
The results highlight the strategies used by lead nurses in confronting COVID-19, which can be associated with John Kotter’s theoretical framework and his model of change.

Objective:
To comprehend the multiprofessional actions regarding palliative care for patients in the Intensive Care Unit affected by SARS-CoV-2.
Methods:
A comprehensive qualitative study conducted with 31 professionals from the Intensive Care Units of a university hospital, based on the Theory of Peaceful End of Life.
Results:
The analysis of the discourse led to the identification of two categories: “Multidisciplinary actions to promote comfort at the end of life” and “Palliative care during the pandemic period and the promotion of emotional and spiritual comfort.”
Final Considerations:
It became evident that local administration needs to invest in measures that reduce barriers to the implementation of palliative care during times of crisis. Understanding the discourse highlighted that non-specialized professionals can provide basic palliative care appropriately, without diminishing the importance and necessity of the presence of palliative care specialists in various hospital areas.

Objective:
To analyze the uncertainties experienced by nursing professionals who contracted COVID-19.
Methods:
This qualitative research was conducted with 20 nursing professionals who fell ill from COVID-19. Data collection was carried out through semi-structured interviews; the data were then organized using thematic analysis and discussed in the context of Merle Mishel’s Reconceptualized of Uncertainty in Illness Theory.
Results:
The antecedents of the disease had a strong influence on how nursing professionals who contracted COVID-19 perceived uncertainty. The media coverage of the increasing number of cases, the collapse of the healthcare system, and the high mortality rate contributed to associating the disease with fear and panic.
Final Considerations:
Viewing it from the perspective of the disease’s antecedents, the illness of a nursing professional from COVID-19 underscores that before being professionals, they are human beings just like anyone else, undergoing adversities and facing the possibilities associated with being ill.

Objectives:
to identify the factors that influenced the mental capacity to work of nursing technicians during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Methods:
a cross-sectional study, carried out at two reference hospitals in assisting the population during the COVID-19 pandemic. A total of 237 professionals from Intensive Care Units participated and answered a questionnaire. Multiple linear regression models were used to assess the correlation between mental capacity to work and variables related to risks of contamination, institutional support and health.
Results:
lack of COVID-19 tests, lack of knowledge of routine, absences in 2021 and mental illness contributed to worse mental capacity to work. Management embracement and physical capacity were considered protective factors.
Conclusions:
reduced work capacity in relation to mental demands can affect professional performance and quality of care, with implications for patients and health institutions.
