    ABSTRACT

    Objective:

    To build a mid-range theory for the nursing diagnosis Overweight in adolescents and young adults.

    Methods:

    A methodological study in the light of the theoretical frameworks of Roy and of Lopes, Silva and Herdman. A total of 3,925 articles were retrieved and assessed using the State of the Art Through Systematic Review software. The final sample consisted of 28 articles.

    Results:

    The findings converged to 3 essential attributes, 13 antecedents, and 7 consequences. A mid-range theory was built consisting of an illustrated diagram, 11 propositions, and 12 causal relationships.

    Final considerations:

    From the creation of the theory, it was possible to better understand the nursing diagnosis Overweight within the context of adolescents and young adults. Understanding nursing phenomena contributes to nursing science’s advancement and strengthening.

    ABSTRACT

    Objective:

    To analyze the social representations of fibromyalgia based on its symptoms and their influences on diagnosis and therapy.

    Methods:

    Qualitative research with the application of the Theory of Social Representations and snowball sampling method. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 30 adults diagnosed with fibromyalgia in the city of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, between April 2020 and January 2021. Statistical and lexicographical analysis was performed using Alceste software.

    Results:

    Pain, as a subjective phenomenon, complicates its legitimacy, diagnosis, and therapy, enhancing suffering. Insufficient information generates judgments, stereotypes, and prejudices.

    Final Considerations:

    Stigmas, prejudices, the variety and invisibility of symptoms make it difficult to objectify the disease within the Cartesian-biomedical frameworks, generating diagnostic pilgrimage, mistakes, and challenges in treatment. Such representations hinder relationships and the management of the disease. Deconstructing them is a way to better care for those with fibromyalgia. Raising awareness and spreading qualified information are important allies.

    Duração e qualidade do sono da equipe de enfermagem brasileira que trabalha em turnos

    RESUMEN

    Objetivo:

    analizar la duración y calidad del sueño en profesionales de enfermería que trabajan por turnos.

    Método:

    investigación analítica, transversal, realizada entre septiembre de 2017 y abril de 2018, en un hospital público del sur de Brasil, con el equipo de enfermería. Se utilizó el cuestionario sociolaboral y de síntomas de salud, la Escala de Somnolencia de Epworth y el Índice de Calidad del Sueño de Pittsburgh. Los datos se presentan como estadística descriptiva e inferencial, análisis bivariado y regresión logística binaria.

    Resultados:

    participaron 308 profesionales de enfermería, con predominio de sueño prolongado, ausencia de somnolencia y mala calidad del sueño. La duración corta del sueño (<6 h) se asoció con turnos de día y mala calidad del sueño. La calidad del sueño se asoció con la presencia de somnolencia diurna excesiva y con el trabajo diurno.

    Conclusión:

    los turnos de trabajo, el insomnio y la cefalea fueron los principales factores relacionados con la falta de sueño de los profesionales de enfermería. Los resultados pueden justificar el desarrollo de investigaciones de intervención para la salud de los trabajadores.

    Functional performance assessment scale for children and adolescents with cancer: cross-cultural study

    ABSTRACT

    Objectives:

    to describe the methodological process of cross-cultural adaptation of the PlayPerformance Scale for Children to Brazilian Portuguese.

    Methods:

    methodological study of translation and cross-cultural adaptation in six stages: translation, synthesis of translations, back-translation, evaluation by a committee of judges, evaluation by expert nurses, and pretest. The agreement and representativeness of the items were assessed using the content validity index. A minimum value of 80% agreement was considered.

    Results:

    all stages of the translation and cross-cultural adaptation process were satisfactory. In the evaluation performed by the committee of judges, all items obtained agreement above 80%. Fifteen pediatric nurses conducted the content validation, suggesting necessary modifications for understanding and application. Thirty children and adolescents with cancer were assessed with the scale for the pre-test.

    Conclusions:

    the scale was cross-culturally adapted to Brazilian Portuguese. The need for psychometric testing in a consistent sample is emphasized.

    Translation and Cross-Cultural Adaptation of the LYMPH-ICF Instrument for Lymphedema into Portuguese/Brazil

    Translation and Cross-Cultural Adaptation of the LYMPH-ICF Instrument for Lymphedema into Portuguese/Brazil

    ABSTRACT

    Objective:

    The aim of this study is to cross-culturally adapt the Lymphoedema Functioning, Disability and Health Questionnaire Lymphoedema (LYMPH-ICF) instrument into Brazilian Portuguese and conduct a pilot application (n = 10), without psychometric pretensions.

    Method:

    Methodological research was conducted, following the steps of translation, synthesis, back-translation, and evaluation by the expert committee. Two translators, two back-translators, and twelve professionals participated in the expert committee. A pretest was carried out with 10 patients with secondary lymphedema due to breast cancer. The degree of agreement was determined by the content validity coefficient.

    Results:

    It was necessary to modify 8 out of the 29 questions comprising the questionnaire, which exhibited idiomatic disagreement. However, despite these changes, there were no indications of impairments, as content reliability was achieved through a validity coefficient of 0.90.

    Final Considerations:

    The instrument was successfully translated and cross-culturally adapted for Brazil with a high level of agreement.

    ABSTRACT

    Objective:

    To analyze the evidence on the influence of Lean and/or Six Sigma for process optimization in the perioperative period.

    Methods:

    Integrative review carried out in the MEDLINE (PubMed), Web of Science, EMBASE, CINAHL, Scopus and LILACS databases on the use of Lean and/or Six Sigma to optimize perioperative processes. The studies included were analyzed in three thematic categories: flow of surgical patients, work process and length of stay.

    Results:

    The final sample consisted of ten studies, which covered all operative periods. Lean and/or Six Sigma make a significant contribution to optimizing perioperative processes.

    Final considerations:

    Lean and/or Six Sigma optimize perioperative processes to maximize the achievement of system stability indicators, making it possible to identify potential problems in order to recognize them and propose solutions that can enable the institution of patient-centered care.
