Views0ABSTRACT
Objective:
to investigate the contributions of applying the Lean methodology to improve work processes in health and nursing and its impact on associated financial aspects.
Method:
an integrative review, carried out in six databases, whose sample of ten (100.0%) studies was analyzed and summarized descriptively.
Results:
the outcomes obtained were stratified into: benefits/barriers to Lean Healthcare implementation; economic aspects involving Lean Healthcare implementation; and process improvements through Lean Healthcare implementation. The majority of studies (60.0%) were carried out in university hospitals, contexts that need to continually improve the quality of services provided, generally with scarce and limited resources, which support the viability of maintaining the teaching, research and extension tripod.
Conclusion:
three (30.0%) studies highlighted the financial aspects associated with Lean methodology application. The others only mentioned the possibility of financial gains through improving processes and reducing waste.

Objective:
to understand the Generalized Resistance Deficits of people deprived of liberty with hypertension in a Brazilian prison unit.
Method:
qualitative research, anchored in Salutogenesis, carried out with 38 people with hypertension from a Brazilian prison unit, from February to July 2022, with a semi-structured interview with open-ended questions, whose analysis was thematic, explaining the limitations to health in prison.
Results:
13 Generalized Resistance Deficits were reported, mostly related to the prison environment and, to a lesser extent, to the social group and the individual, respectively. Living in prison for people with hypertension implies living with a high number of Generalized Resistance Deficits, accentuating the movement towards the disease pole.
Final considerations:
knowing Generalized Resistance Deficits allows directing health promotion to support the use of available Generalized Resistance Resources and contributes to the expansion of intersectoral policies.

Objective:
To analyze the factors associated with the knowledge of Community Health Agents (ACS) about tuberculosis.
Methods:
A cross-sectional study was conducted with 110 ACS. A questionnaire was used to assess knowledge about pulmonary tuberculosis (component 1) and the work functions of ACS in the National Tuberculosis Control Program (component 2). The level of knowledge, according to the scores converted into a scale of 0 to 100, was classified as: 0-50% (low), 51-75% (medium), and over 75% (high). Multiple regression was used in the analysis of associated factors.
Results:
The global score (average of the scores of components 1 and 2) median knowledge was 68.6%. Overall knowledge about tuberculosis was positively associated with the length of professional experience, having received training on tuberculosis, and access to the tuberculosis guide/handbook.
Conclusions:
Investments in training and capacity-building strategies for ACS will contribute to increasing these professionals’ knowledge, resulting in greater success in tuberculosis control.

Methods:
this qualitative study employed Grounded Theory, conducted in an obstetric care service with 38 participants (women and health professionals) through semi-structured interviews.
Results:
limitations in physical infrastructure and management of care, along with the women’s limited knowledge about the childbirth process and the decision-making and guidance of professionals, show conflicting obstetric practices-a discrepancy between good practices and obstetric violence. Training in obstetric nursing and active participation in care, alongside the presence of a companion, were identified as intervening conditions and strategies in the process.
Final Considerations:
childbirth care is characterized by dichotomous practices. While some professionals base their practices on scientific evidence, others rely on teachings and experiences from the time of their training.

Objectives:
to analyze stress from the perspective of nursing workers caring for people with COVID-19 in a public hospital in the Recôncavo region of Bahia.
Methods:
this is an exploratory qualitative study, conducted through semi-structured interviews. The data were analyzed using word clouds, similarity trees, and content analysis.
Results:

The reported stressors in the workplace included: work overload, lack of planning, speed in performing tasks, fatigue, lack of participation in decision-making, lack of support from management, technological changes, excessive responsibility without preparation, interpersonal conflicts, and professional undervaluation.
