Objectives:
to identify the strategies found in the literature for increasing vaccination coverage among children in Brazil. It is justified mainly by the current scenario of falling vaccination coverage.
Methods:
systematic literature review. The search was carried out in the Pubmed (MEDLINE), Embase and Scopus databases, following the PRISMA guidelines.
Results:
initially, 4,824 results were returned. In the end, 6 studies were included for narrative synthesis using the SWiM methodology. Of these, 50% dealt with studies related to the Bolsa Família Program (PBF). The others explored strategies for approaching parents directly, Rapid Vaccination Monitoring (MRV) and the Community Health Agents Program (PACS). The PBF did not guarantee compliance with the conditionality of keeping vaccinations up to date. The MRV and PACS are effective strategies, especially because they allow active search for absentees.
Conclusions:
we conclude that more publications are needed on strategies to increase vaccination coverage among children in Brazil.

The use of institutional routines, such as zero diet, horizontal birth and disrespect.
Final Considerations:
despite the encouragement of public humanization policies, the technocratic model is still present in obstetric care during childbirth. The humanization of obstetric care requires changes in attitudes and care paradigms, in order to guarantee respect and the right to quality care.

Objective:
To verify the effectiveness of the educational intervention through the evaluation of nurses’ knowledge about prevention of pressure injury.
Method:
A quasi-experimental study with a single group, carried out with 95 nurses from a teaching hospital in the interior of Minas Gerais, in August and September 2017. As a teaching strategy, the active methodology and hybrid teaching were used, based on the reference of the Method of the Arch of Charles Maguerez. Data were collected from a validated instrument, called the Pieper Knowledge Test, and analyzed by descriptive statistics and Student’s t-test with significance level of p <0.001.
Results:
The mean number of correct answers obtained by the nurses was 78.8% in the pre-test and 88.8% in the post-test, and the difference was statistically significant (p <0.001).
Conclusion:
The educational intervention developed was effective, since it contributed to the improvement of nurses’ knowledge.
