Objetivo:
Describir la ocurrencia de mortalidad por cáncer cervical en Recife (PE), en el noreste de Brasil.
Método:
Este fue un estudio ecológico de series temporales que utilizó datos del Sistema de Información de Mortalidad (SIM) sobre el número total de muertes por cáncer cervical (C53 ICD10) ocurridas entre 2000 y 2012.
Resultados:
Se observó que el riesgo de muerte por esta forma de cáncer fue mayor entre las mujeres mayores de 60 años, las de color de piel mixto (53.24%), las que sólo trabajaban en casa (63.16%) y las que no tenían pareja (44.32%).
Conclusión:
Se requieren esfuerzos adicionales para mantener los programas de detección precoz y educación sanitaria y para utilizar estrategias terapéuticas de mayor eficacia, ya que la mortalidad por esta forma de cáncer se considera evitable cuando se diagnostica tempranamente.

Objective:
To investigate compliance of national patient safety protocols in Emergency Care Units (UPA) of the Paraná State.
Method:
From April until September 2016, the exploratory stage of the action research was conducted on stratified sampling with 377 patients of eight units, with use of verification instrument of basic safety actions.
Results:
The absence of systematic identification of patients, fall risk assessment and signaling and development of pressure injuries were evidenced. We observed that 52.8% of parenteral solutions in use were not identified and that, in only 29.4% of the cases, the allergic condition was investigated. In 80.6% of the emergency units there was availability of alcoholic solution to hand hygiene.
Conclusion:
We concluded that the non-compliance of basic actions concerning patient safety exposes users to preventable adverse events and demands systematized actions to comply with government guidelines and promote quality of health assistance.

Objective:
To describe the determining factors in hand hygiene management among nurses and identify associated collective health challenges.
Method:
Cross-sectional descriptive study. Data were collected using a questionnaire that was applied in four internal medicine units of a hospital of reference in Portugal.
Results:
The sample was composed of 50 nurses aged 26 to 55 years (mean age of 34.88 years); 80% were women, 58% had a Bachelor’s degree, and had 5-30 years of nursing practice (X̄ =11.94;±5.92). The vast majority of nurses (90%) reported complying with the existing recommendations on hand hygiene in pre-established moments. However, none of the nurses were able to identify all the moments for hand hygiene using water and soap or alcohol-based handrub.
Conclusion:
This study shows that continuous training, adequate materials/structures in the units, and redesigned administration/supervision practices are determining factors to achieve higher levels of adherence to hand hygiene among nurses, as well as increased quality and safety in care delivery, which is a current collective health challenge.

Objective:
To understand the care of elderly men with their own health.
Method:
A qualitative study with the participation of ten elderly men, through responses to the semi-structured interview guided by the “Tell me about your experiences of care with your health”, carried out in a basic health unit, during the period of October-December 2014. The speeches, after being transcribed were submitted to content analysis.
Results:
The ten interviewees were retired and had an average age of 67.3 years. From the analysis of the data, two categories have emerged: Elderly health care ways and health service as a supporter in the care (less) of the elderly, which revealed the restriction of health care to the triad: medicines, consultation to professionals and exams.
Final considerations:
Institutional and sociocultural barriers that need to be overcome so that the male population can be consolidated, guaranteeing care of their peculiarities, encouraging active behaviors for self-care.

Objective:
to identify the profile of the counter-referred patients by the “nurse liaison” and to describe the experience of the professionals who participated in the project.
Method:
intervention research, with twelve nursing nurses from a hospital and an Emergency Care Unit, and 26 nurses from Primary Health Care. Data were obtained through questionnaires and counter-referral forms.
Results:
Out of 43 counter-referred individuals, 62.8% are over sixty years, 53.5% are men with multi-pathologies. Among the positive aspects, the nurses highlighted the dialogue between health care services, agility in the acquisition of inputs for the continuity of care in primary care, benefiting patients after hospital discharge. The greatest challenge was the lack of time and the deficit of nurses to perform the function.
Final considerations:
the presence of the “nurse liaison” has proved to be an important strategy to improve integration between services and to promote continuity of care.

Objective:
to understand the meaning of nursing care in primary health care from the perspective of Chilean nurses.
Method:
this was a qualitative study based on the social phenomenology of Alfred Schutz. Data was collected between January and April 2013, through interviews with 13 primary health care nurses in Chile.
Results:
the nurses perceived primary care as a gratifying experience, considering it an encounter of subjectivities. However, they felt burdened with multiple functions and by the hierarchical pressure to achieve targets. They strived to implement innovative care, expressed by the desire to go beyond traditional care practices, and improve the efficiency of management at the various levels of health care.
Conclusion:
it is important to discuss the results of the present study in the context of health care and especially nursing education, with the goal of better preparing nurses who will deliver care at the primary health care level.

Objective:
To compare the physiological variables and the sleep-wake pattern presented by preterm in nesting and hammock positions after diaper change.
Method:
This is a crossover randomized controlled trial. It was conducted with 20 preterm infants who, after diaper change, were placed in nests or hammocks. These preterm infants were evaluated for physiological variables (heart rate and oxygen saturation) and behavioral variables (sleep and wakefulness).
Results:
There was no statistically significant difference in the studied variables between nesting and hammock positions. However, regarding the categorical variable sleep, the comparison between the research phases for the hammock position showed differences between the baseline phase and the immediate recovery (p=0.00), baseline and late recovery (p=0.00), response and immediate recovery (p=0.00), response and late recovery (p=0.00).
Conclusion:
No differences were identified between the nest and the hammock; however, the use of the hammock favored the sleep of preterm infants compared to its non-use.

Objective:
To investigate possible differences in plasma and erythrocyte concentrations of selenium among elderly with and without a diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease (AD).
Methods:
Cross-sectional study, performed with an elderly group with Alzheimer’s disease, diagnosed by a geriatric doctor, and compared to an elderly group without the disease, equaling gender, education, and age. Atomic absorption spectrophotometry determined plasma and erythrocyte concentrations of total selenium (Set).
Results:
The mean age was 74.41±7.1 years in the Alzheimer’s disease group and 71.46±5.1 years among the control group. The Alzheimer’s disease group presented lower plasma concentrations (mean of 45.29±14.51 µg/dL vs. 55.14±14.01 µg/dL; p=0.004), and erythrocyte Set (median of 56.36 µg/L vs. 76.96 µg/L; p<0.001). The logistic regression model indicated an association between erythrocyte Set concentrations and diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease (p=0.028).
Conclusion:
Elderly with Alzheimer’s disease present lower selenium concentrations in the evaluated organic compartments.

Objective:
To reveal the Comfort needs as perceived by hospitalized elders, using Kolcaba’s theory.
Methods:
Descriptive and qualitative study, with 11 elders hospitalized in a university hospital, aiming to identify their needs for Comfort.
Results:
Discourses were categorized in four thematic units: Physical, Environmental, Sociocultural, and Psychospiritual. In the Physical context, several subcategories were found, namely, Symptom Relief; Daily Life Activities; Hygiene and personal care; Diet; Sleep and rest. In the Environmental context, the Comfort was considered to be superior than in the elders’ home; in the Sociocultural one, family bonds were found to become more distant, triggering feelings of missing one’s family and isolation, in the Psychospiritual context, spirituality and religiosity stood out.
Final considerations:
The Comfort needs of the hospitalized elders enable one to reflect on nursing care, offering information to improve the quality of assistance and to attend to the real needs of the elderly.
