Objective:
to investigate the prevalence of Minor Psychiatric Disorders and associated factors in nursing workers.
Method:
observational and analytical sectional study. Data were collected from 285 nursing workers. A questionnaire containing sociodemographic, occupational, psychosocial aspects of work and mental health was used. Bivariate and multivariate analysis were performed by binary logistic regression.
Results:
the global prevalence of suspected Minor Psychiatric Disorders among nursing workers was 32.6%. Higher prevalence rates were found among female, young, married/common-law married individuals, in the nursing assistant/technician categories, with income up to four minimum wages, developing high-demand work with low social support, high effort-reward imbalance, and over-commitment.
Conclusion:
the variables that remained associated with the mental health outcome in the final model were: female gender, married/common-law married, high-demand work, high effort-reward imbalance, and over-commitment.

Objective:
to describe the contribution of the concept of transference to the application of the nursing process in the care of patients with psychical suffering.
Method:
Theoretical study, structured from the following question: Is it possible to develop the nursing process in the care of patients with psychical suffering by using transference?
Result:
The patient is considered as a subject of the unconscious and has a demand he/she is unaware of.
Discussion:
The transference guides the nursing process and favors the elaboration of what has no meaning in the symptom.
Final considerations:
As an implication for practice, the nursing process will articulate the transference function through the nursing diagnosis, which will promote the capture of subsidies for the planning and implementation of care, in which the purpose will be the symbolization of the symptom. To highlight speech as a means to therapeutic relation will offer the patients the condition to dictate the pace of articulation between their signifiers, which will dynamically temporalize the process.

Objective:
To know the experience of nurses of the Psychosocial Care Networks on the development of Nursing Appointment in Mental Health.
Method:
Qualitative study, with interview of 20 nurses, through the analysis of the statements in the search of the meaning core.
Results:
was unveiled as meaning core: lack of preparation for Mental Health Care, Non-identification of the work of the nurse in Mental Health; and Performance of Nursing Appointment as bureaucratic fulfillment.
Final considerations:
Nurses understand Nursing Appointment as an individualized and bureaucratic activity, to consider professional regulations, and not as a work process in the multiprofessional work, thus, the Projeto Terapêutico Singular (freely translated as Unique Therapeutic Project) is not cited as a possibility of work process. It was identified necessary space for discussion of actuation and updates of the nurse in Mental Health Care in the health services studied, with emphasis on their performance in a multiprofessional team in consonance with the Mental Health Policy.

The theoretical sample consisted of 20 participants, among health professionals and family members of people who committed suicide. Data were collected through intensive and coded interviews from initial and focused coding.
Results:
three categories were obtained: Being in a “state of shock”; Living with the suffering and effects of the loss of the family member; and, Rebuilding life. From the articulation of these categories emerged the phenomenon: “Experiencing the loss of a family member by suicide: from mourning to the quest for overcoming”.
Final considerations:
each category represents a stage in the family’s experience of losing a family member by suicide. The results provide support for suicide prevention and postvention actions developed by health professionals.

Objective:
To assess the relationship of post-traumatic stress symptoms and the perception of social support in women submitted to Severe Maternal Morbidity (SMM).
Method:
A prospective cohort study, with 549 women from public hospitals. The Impact of Events and Social Support scales were used.
Results:
Women with SMM were from the State countryside (p=0.046), with low schooling (p=0.039) and did not work (p<0.001). They presented higher consumption of alcoholic beverages (p<0.001), did not perform prenatal (p<0.001), and were older (28.15 ± 28 years). Women with SMM had higher mean values of avoidance behavior (24.32, SD: 4.16), intrusive thinking (18.28, SD: 3.80), lower social support (0.11, SD: 0.001) with large effect size and lower social support satisfaction (0.69; SD: 0.19), with small effect size.
Conclusion:
SMM is a differential and negative factor for women’s mental health, and social support can favor their coping.

Analyze how professionals understood the multi, inter and transprofessionality and how these practices happened in the CAPS (Psychossocial Care Centers) of São Paulo/SP.
Method:
Qualitative, exploratory, descriptive study, and use of Content Analysis. We interviewed 27 professionals from nine CAPS.
Results:
Organized in two categories: definition of multiprofessional, interprofessional and transprofessional work in Mental Health; and specific aspects of professions and Conceptions about multi, inter and transprofessional teamwork in daily life. There were difficulties in conceptualizing modalities of disciplinary integration, little problematization in the reality of workers, and questions of specific practices of each area. The devices have been problematized, in which the distancing of Public Policies happen.
Final considerations:
There is coexistence of the biomedical, of insane asylum and Psychosocial Care paradigms in the discourses and actions of the teams, to compromise the effectiveness of the Psychiatric Reform. The practice was close to the ideas of integration and of auxiliary interdisciplinarity and not of the effective construction of shared therapeutic knowledge and projects.

Objectives:
to analyze the processes of production of meanings, based on the positions of Brazilian nursing representative entities, on distance education, considering the implications for nursing as a discipline, profession and work.
Methods:
this documentary research was carried out in sources from the Federal Nursing Council and Associação Brasileira de Enfermagem, from 2015 to 2018. Data were examined from discourse analysis, using paraphrase and polysemy as analytical devices.
Results:
they were organized based on the effects of meanings produced and affiliated to two analytical categories: “Forms of mobilization and operating entities” and “Basis and justifications for the positions”.
Final Considerations:
the discourses signal concern about the future training of new professionals. Resistance, participation, visibility, broad and emphatic debate on the topic are shown as strategies for coping and defending a training process less captured by neoliberal logic, and more relational and committed to the quality of health care.

Objective:
To evaluate occupational hazards affecting nursing professionals’ health in the environment of the hospital.
Method:
Descriptive-exploratory research with a qualitative approach.
Results:
The main hazards affecting nursing professionals were work overload due to the large number of patients or the small number of professionals, inadequate infrastructure, and insufficient organizational management. It became evident the work interferences in the nursing professional’s life are enormous. Despite the existence of health occupational risk management, there is still a shortage of bigger endeavors to be employed in the hospital routine. As a main result of the study, a Standard Operational Protocol (SOP) for biological risk was created to be applied in a hospital setting.
Conclusion:
Based on the identification of occupational hazards, it was suggested the Standard Operational Protocol which should be standardized to manage biological occupational hazards, to ensure the adequate flow of procedures after the exposure, as well as the occupational safety of nursing professionals.

Objectives:
to assess factors associated with vulnerability and fragility in the elderly.
Methods:
crosssectional study with 384 elderly people in Fortaleza, Ceará. The Vulnerable Elders Survey and Clinical-Functional Vulnerability Index – 20 were used. Chi-square and Fisher’s exact tests were used for associations. In the analysis of the combined influence of risk factors, the stepwise logistic regression and multinomial regression methods were adopted.
Results:
251 (65.4%) non-vulnerable and 133 (34.6%) vulnerable elders. From the vulnerable elders analyzed, 42 (30.9%) are at high risk for frailty. Factors associated with vulnerability: age, gender, presence of comorbidities, hypertension, diabetes, osteoporosis and use of polypharmacy. There is a 30% increase in the chance of vulnerability for each additional drug. Physical activity reduces the chance of vulnerability by 60%. Factors associated with frailty: educational level; self-perception of health; comorbidities; polypharmacy.
Conclusions:
it is important to pay attention to the presence of arterial hypertension, osteoporosis, polypharmacy, and encourage the practice of physical activity.

Objectives:
to analyze the factors associated with suicidal ideation in students from healthcare graduation courses.
Methods:
quantitative, cross-sectional study, with 251 students from the courses of radiology, speech-language therapy, medicine, nutrition, health service management, and nursing, from a federal higher education institution in the Southeast of Brazil. Data were collected from August to October 2019, using an electronic questionnaire.
Results:
the prevalence of suicidal ideation among participants was 26.33%. In the final logistic regression model, only depressive symptoms were associated with suicidal ideation. Having symptoms of depression increased the chances of suicidal ideation 2.6 times.
Conclusion:
the high prevalence of suicidal ideation and its associated factors constitutes a situational diagnosis that demands the elaboration of public and institutional policies, focused on the promotion and attention to the mental health of the students.
