Objective:
to investigate what is the best anthropometric predictor of arterial hypertension among private school students.
Method:
this was a cross-sectional study with 286 students between the ages of 10 and 14 from two private schools in the city of Paranavaí, Paraná, Brazil. The following variables were analyzed: body mass index, waist circumference and blood pressure. Statistical analysis was conducted with Pearson’s partial correlation test and multivariate logistic regression, with p<0.05.
Results:
both anthropometric indicators displayed weak correlation with systolic and diastolic levels, with coeffi cients (r) ranging from 0.27 to 0.36 (p < 0.001). Multivariate analysis showed that the only anthropometric indicator associated with arterial hypertension was waist circumference (OR= 2.3; 95% CI: 1.1-4.5), regardless of age or gender.
Conclusion:
this age group, waist circumference appeared to be a better predictor for arterial hypertension than body mass index.

Objective:
this qualitative study aimed to analyze the perceptions of primary health care management nurses on the nursing process.
Method:
data were collected through interviews and analyzed by the Content Analysis proposed by Bardin’s theoretical framework.
Results:
managers recognize the importance of the nursing process, although its implementation was not a priority at the time of the interviews. A conceptual diffi culty and a lack of understanding that the implementation of the care methodology should be a cross-departmental action in the local healthcare management were clearly observed.
Conclusion:
managers should have their perspectives broadened concerning the relevance of the nursing process and the professional training. The active participation of legislative nursing bodies, local healthcare management and the federal government may open the way for the effective implementation of the nursing process.

Objective:
to make across-cultural adaptation of the “Nursing Students’ Attitudes Toward Mental Health Nursing and Consumers” scale in Brazil.
Method:
the scale was tested regarding conceptual, item, semantic, and operational equivalence.
Results:
content validation was conducted by an expert committee with a minimum consensus level of 80%. This process resulted in a 35-item scale divided into 6 factors. The experts reached 100% consensus on the scale’s clarity of language, practical pertinence and theoretical relevance, as well as on the need for excluding one factor. Data were collected in 2013 in the city of Londrina, Paraná, Brazil.
Conclusion:
the instrument was cross-culturally adapted to Brazilian Portuguese and presented satisfactory content validity. We propose further studies on the scale’s psychometric properties, such as construct validity, internal consistency and reliability.

Objective:
to analyze the development and mobilization of relational skills central to the caring process among nursing students throughout their professional training.
Method:
this was a quantitative study, descriptive and cross-sectional in design. The sample consisted of nursing undergraduate students from the Higher School of Health Sciences, in the city of Évora, Portugal. Data were collected using the previously validated Helping Relational Skills Inventory.
Results:
the students gradually acquired “generic skills”, “communication skills” and “contact skills”, presenting the highest mean score in the last year of the program. However, the highest mean score for the “empathetic skills” subscale was presented by second-year students.
Conclusion:
age and year in program were found to be decisive variables regarding the acquisition of specifi c skills (empathetic and communication) by nursing students.

descrever o julgamento clínico de enfermagem para identificar diagnósticos NANDA e desenvolver um plano de tratamento NIC para uma criança em pós-operatório de cirurgia cardíaca em terapia intensiva.
Método:
estudo de caso com coleta de dados retrospectiva no prontuário.
Resultados:
três enfermeiras identificaram diagnósticos NANDA e intervenções NIC. Criança de 6 meses, submetida a cirurgia cardíaca, necessitou oxigenação extracorpórea por membrana no pós-operatório. Foram identificados quatro principais diagnósticos, aos quais foram direcionadas dez intervenções. A proposta de intervenções para responder às necessidades humanas prioritárias da criança foi otimizada pelo uso das terminologias padronizadas. Todos os diagnósticos foram sustentados por indicadores diagnósticos; todas as intervenções foram cientificamente sustentadas.
Conclusão:
espera-se que os enfermeiros abordem não somente as respostas fisiológicas, mas também aquelas dos domínios psicossociais.

to identify the scientific publications about adverse events in nursing care in adult hospitalized patients and discuss the main adverse events in nursing care.
Method:
Integrative revision with a qualitative approach. The data were collected at LILACS, MEDLINE, BDENF and the library SCIELO and were submitted to thematic analysis.
Results:
three categories were developed: Adverse events in nursing care; The main causes of the adverse events in nursing care; Attitude of nursing professionals in face of errors. The main events were identified in nursing care with emphasis on the medication error, the failure to perform dressings and falls of patients. The importance of instruments was emphasized for notification of adverse events in the institutions. However the fear of punishment on professionals stimulates the underreporting of events.
Conclusion:
it is important to discuss effective prevention strategies that ensure patient safety in healthcare institutions.

to identify with the literature the measures to prevent and control neonatal infection by COVID-19.
Methods:
a scope review carried out by searching for studies in databases and institutional health websites. The final sample was 25 articles.
Results:
among the main measures are the use of masks by suspected or infected people in contact with healthy newborns, hand hygiene before and after each care and feeding as well as the tools used for milking. It is indispensable to use personal protective equipment by health professionals in neonatology services to maintain a private room for infected newborns or to use physical barriers. Early diagnosis and timely case management is essential to reduce virus transmissibility.
Conclusions:
the research contributed to elucidate health and nursing actions in preventing and controlling neonatal infection by COVID-19.

Methods:
scoping review, according to Joanna Briggs Institute and PRISMA-ScR. Research was conducted in five electronic databases, Cochrane Library and eight catalogs of theses and dissertations. Data collection occurred from April to July 2018, with no time limit. The extracted data were analyzed and synthesized in a narrative way.

Objectives:
to understand how the dramatic therapeutic play session occurs within the care of hospitalized children.
Methods:
qualitative multiple case study, using theoretical references, such as symbolic interactionism and Vygotsky’s theory of symbolic play. Twenty play sessions performed with six children from 3 to 10 years old were analyzed, each corresponding to one case.
Results:
these sessions demonstrated that a dramatic therapeutic play session is a process of four interdependent and complementary steps: bonding, exploring, dramatizing, and play cessation. They also revealed the imaginary situations externalized by the child, the importance of the exploration step for which they manage the imaginary situation and catharsis, and how her higher psychological faculties are articulated during this process.
Final Considerations:
the results contribute to the understanding of the conduct and analysis of the dramatic therapeutic play session, reinforcing the importance of its use in pediatric nursing care practice.

Of the most frequent SRQ-20 complaints, 95.3% reported “feeling nervous, tense or worried”, 72.9% “having difficulty making decisions”, 60% “sleeping poorly” and 37.6% “having lost interest by things “.
Conclusion:
high prevalence of CMD in the sample and the association with the consumption of alcohol requires preventive and therapeutic actions among the students that minimize the possibility of severe mental disorders related to the consumption of alcohol and other drugs.
