Objective:
to analyze the initial nipple damage degree by breastfeeding practice and to associate findings with clinical manifestations of breastfeeding women.
Methods:
a retrospective, cross-sectional study with primary data and photographic images database from two randomized clinical trials. Photographic images were analyzed by two independent evaluators using the Nipple Trauma Score. For analysis, the chi-square, Mann-Whitney tests and Kappa coefficient were applied.
Results:
115 breastfeeding women and their respective 186 photographic images were analyzed. The degree of agreement of evaluators using the Nipple Trauma Score was 93.6%. The nipple pain score during breastfeeding was moderate and compromised more than 25% of the nipple surface area.
Conclusions:
assistance to breastfeeding women should prioritize nipple pain intensity instead of the nipple damage size.

Objective:
To validate a checklist for safe bathing in critically ill patients.
Methods:
This is a methodological and quantitative study. Researchers developed a checklist for safe bathing in critically ill patients consisting of 41 items, which were submitted to the apparent and content validation process, evaluated by eleven judges, and interobserver reliability. For reliability analysis, the instrument was applied in 54 bed bath procedures in the ICU; Kappa and CHF tests were used.
Results:
In the apparent and content validation, adjustments were made according to the judges’ suggestions. Kappa values ranged from moderate to almost perfect (0.462 to 0.962), and, in some items, there was 100% agreement; the reliability of the instrument was excellent (ICC = 0.962).
Conclusion:
The instrument proved to be dependable and easy to apply. Its use will contribute to safe bed bathing and subsidize interventions aimed at increasing the quality of care.

Objective:
to identify evidence available in the literature on instruments and methodologies used to assess healthcare professionals’ knowledge about cancer care for the transgender population.
Methods:
a scoping review was conducted in seven databases, including studies that answered the question: what is the healthcare professionals’ level of knowledge about cancer care for the transgender population?
Results:
forty-one articles were selected that dealt specifically with healthcare professionals’knowledge in relation to care for the LGBTQIAPN+ population, especially the transgender population. Eighteen studies assessed patients’ perceptions of professionals’knowledge, whereas other studies used their own assessment tools, considering the global context of LGBTQIAPN+ health.
Conclusions:
there is no tested and validated instrument that assesses the knowledge about the transgender population’s oncological health, highlighting the need to construct and validate an instrument focused on this population’s needs.

Objective:
To identify factors associated with poor sleep quality in elderly dependent individuals in social vulnerability.
Method:
Cross-sectional study with 59 elderly dependent individuals assisted by Family Health Units in São Carlos/SP. The following tools were used: Katz Index, Lawton and Brody Scale, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, Addenbrooke’s Cognitive Examination Revised, Fried’s Frailty Phenotype, Geriatric Depression Scale (15 items), Perceived Stress Scale, Family APGAR, Social Support Scale from the Medical Outcomes Study, and World Health Organization Quality of Life, abbreviated and “old” versions.
Results:
The majority of participants were women (52.5%), aged 60-74 years (71.1%), and had poor sleep quality (76.2%). Stress (OR=1.12; 95%CI=1.02-1.22) and polypharmacy (OR=7.39; 95%CI=1.22-44.73) increased the chances of poor sleep quality, while physical activity decreased these chances (OR=0.15; 95%CI=0.02-0.79).
Conclusion:
Stress and polypharmacy are associated with poor sleep quality in elderly dependent individuals.

Objective:
To report the development of a technological innovation in the form of a documentary, aimed at disseminating actions for preventing violence against adolescents within the context of Primary Health Care.
Methods:
The documentary was developed through action research and interventions with adolescents in the territory of a Health Unit, conducted between 2020 and 2022, using Social Technology as both an action strategy and a conceptual reference.
Results:
The Social Technology proposal, created through workshops and seminars, resulted in a documentary focusing on violence prevention, involving 48 adolescents. The documentary’s script, collectively developed, portrays a soccer match between teams symbolizing peace and violence, with peace ultimately prevailing. The documentary is six minutes long.
Final Considerations:
The documentary has proven to be an effective Social Technology tool among adolescents, as it fosters critical thinking, is accessible, has potential for digital dissemination, and appeals to the target audience.

Objectives:
to assess pain management during labor.
Methods:
a cross-sectional study was carried out by reviewing medical records and conducting postpartum interviews. Prevalence and effectiveness of analgesia were assessed.
Results:
the prevalence of non-pharmacological analgesia was 61.86% of 215 women in labor in Obstetric Center and 82.51% of 62 in midwife-led unit. Prevalence of severe pain, on the Visual Analogue Scale, before and after non-pharmacological analgesia, was from 92.16% to 64.04% (p=0.00) in Obstetric Center and from 85.96% to 52.63% (p=0.01) in midwife-led unit. Prevalence of pharmacological analgesia in Obstetric Centers was 15.81%, with no variation in severe pain (p=0.57). Patients’ request for analgesia was associated with education (p=0.00) and pain intensity (p=0.02).
Conclusions:
non-pharmacological analgesia improved pain intensity. Prevalence of pharmacological analgesic prescription was lower than that identified in developed countries. Pain management needs to consider the preferences and needs of women in labor.

Objectives:
to analyze the experiences of people with acquired physical disabilities regarding accessibility and social conditions; to identify nurse-led rehabilitation interventions for accessibility and social conditions; to determine nursing-sensitive indicators to improve accessibility and social conditions.
Methods:
a descriptive-exploratory qualitative study employed semi-structured interviews with people with acquired physical disabilities through purposive snowball sampling to address all objectives. Data analysis followed Bardin’s content analysis principles. Furthermore, objectives 2 and 3 were achieved through a reflective theoretical approach.
Results:
the 27 participants reported accessibility challenges, impacting activities of living and social conditions. This influences rehabilitation nursing, leading to three intervention fields: Assess the ability to perform activities of living and influencing factors; Develop and implement training to perform activities of living; Promote mobility, accessibility, and social participation.
Final Considerations:
based on participants experiences, we identified nurse-led rehabilitation interventions to promote accessibility and social conditions.

Objectives:
to assess the patient safety culture of the health team working in three maternity hospitals.
Methods:
observational, cross-sectional, comparative study. 301 professionals participated in the study. The Hospital Survey on Patient Safety Culture questionnaire validated in Brazil was used. For data analysis, it was considered a strong area in the patient safety culture when positive responses reached over 75%; and areas that need improvement when positive responses have reached less than 50%. To compare the results, standard deviation and thumb rule were used.
Results:
of the 12 dimensions of patient safety culture, none obtained a score above 75%, with nine dimensions scoring between 19% and 43% and three dimensions between 55% and 57%.
Conclusions:
no strong dimensions for safety culture were identified in the three maternity hospitals. It is believed that these results may contribute to the development of policies that promote a culture of safety in institutions.

Objective:
to evaluate the quality of life of primary care nurses in the climacteric.
Method:
A cross-sectional descriptive-analytic study, performed with 98 female nurses, aged 40-65 years, using the WHOQOL-Bref questionnaire.
Results:
the worst level of quality of life was observed for professionals aged 50-59 years, non-white, specialists, divorced or widowed, with children, a lower income, with another employment relationship, a weekly workload of more than 40 hours, who consumed alcoholic beverages weekly, with chronic disease, in continuous use of medications, sedentary, who did not menstruate and did not receive hormonal treatment, and who went through menopause between the ages of 43-47 years.
Conclusion:
Although the variables “physical activity” and “age” have a statistically significant association with quality of life, other variables seem to interfere in these professionals’ lives, indicating the need for a more critical and deep reflection on these relations.

Objective:
To understand how nursing workers perceive care of hypertension (HBP) in older adult within the scope of the Family Health Strategy.
Method:
A qualitative descriptive study carried out in the city of Natal/RN, with 20 nursing workers providing care to older adults with HBP. The data were obtained through a semi-structured interview and analysed by the Thematic Analysis, based on the theoretical support of the integrality, using Atlas.ti 7.0 software.
Results:
The elements found as facilitators were: territorialization, partnerships, professional proactivity and the user’s bond with the team. Among those found as barriers were: disease-centered care; academic education based on the biomedical model; lack of inter-sectorality and discontinuity of care in the care network.
Final considerations:
Nursing workers perceive that health institutions lack articulated and innovative practices that incorporate new paradigms focused on integrality of care.

Objective:
Analyze available evidence related to SARS-CoV-2 infection and vertical transmission.
Methods:
Scoping review, according to the Joanna Briggs Institute and PRISMA-ScR. Searches were conducted in five electronic databases to find publications about coronavirus infection and vertical transmission. Data were extracted, analyzed and synthesized by three independent researchers using a descriptive approach.
Results:
The search resulted in 76 publications. After selective steps, 15 articles – retrospective descriptive or case studies – were analyzed, all in English. In order to track the infection, specimens were collected from neonates through nasal swabs and C-reactive protein from breast milk, cord blood, amniotic fluid, placenta and vaginal secretion was analyzed. A small percentage of neonates tested positive for COVID-19, but these cases were not attributed to vertical transmission.
Conclusion:
Vertical transmission could not be demonstrated. Research protocol registered with the Open Science Framework (https://osf.io/fawmv).
