    ABSTRACT

    Objective:

    To synthesize and interpret findings and conclusions of qualitative research addressing the experience of the father in the care of the child with cancer.

    Method:

    Meta-synthesis of 16 qualitative studies from six databases, analyzed through taxonomic analysis.

    Results:

    Child and adolescent cancer have several repercussions on the daily life of the father, especially related to the stigma around the disease, the fear of the unknown and the social and family role. Faced with the illness and the need to care for the child, the father seeks to recover normality in the family and transitions between hegemonic masculine behaviors and practices culturally recognized as female.

    Final Considerations:

    The complex experience of the father, influenced by masculinities, was evidenced. The limitations regard the restricted understanding of the contextual specificities of the experiences, due to the limited characteristics of the parents and children described in the studies. The knowledge produced is useful to promote involvement of fathers in the care of the child, as well as to strengthen and assist him in this task.

    Objective:

    to analyze male criminals’ perception about marital violence.

    Method:

    Results:

    the collective discourses reveal that, in the male’s perception, conjugal violence is inherent in a marital relationships: it is a private, reciprocal problem that leaves body marks.

    Conclusion:

    gender dissymmetry as a social construct is evidenced, signaling the need to create spaces for reflection and re-signification of men and women, from a gender perspective.

    Impact of critical illness news on the family: hermeneutic phenomenological study

    ABSTRACT

    Objective:

    Understand the impact of critical-illness news on the experience of family members at an Intensive Care Unit.

    Method:

    Phenomenological approach according to Van Manen’s method. Open interviews were held with 21 family members. From analysis and interpretation of the data, three essential themes were identified: the unexpected; the pronouncement of death; and the impact on self-caring within the family. The study complied with the ethical principles inherent to research involving humans.

    Results:

    The unexpected news and death of the sick person influence the well-being and self-care of family members, affecting their ability for analysis and decision making. It was observed that the family experiences the news with suffering, mainly due to the anticipation arising from the events.

    Final considerations:

    The humanity of nurses was revealed in response to the needs of the family. In view of the requirements for information, it was verified that the information transmitted allowed them to become aware of themselves, to become empowered in their daily lives and to alleviate the emotional burden experienced.

    Objective:

    To characterize approach methods for intradomiciliary contacts (IdC) of leprosy cases resident in Northern Brazil, during 2001-2012.

    Method:

    A cross-sectional and descriptive study in the state of Rondônia. Included IdC of leprosy cases diagnosed/reported in SINAN-Ministry of Health (MS), 2001-2012. A semi-structured instrument was applied to the IdCs, with six interventions: complete dermatological examination; complete neurological examination; BCG vaccination; instructions for return to the health unit; BCG guidance; and guidance to mobilize other contacts.

    Conclusion:

    Despite the favorable indicators of IdC examination coverage in the state, the evaluation process presents patterns that indicate operational quality failures.

    Identity of primary health care nurses: perception of “doing everything”

    Revista Brasileira de Enfermagem. 2018;71(1):142-147

    ABSTRACT

    Objective:

    To analyze, in the speeches of nurses, the habitus that conforms their professional identity in the primary health care area.

    Method:

    Qualitative study, carried out from March to October 2015, with nurses of primary healthcare units in the cities of Cajazeiras, in the state of Paraíba, and Maracanaú, in the state of Ceará. Data were collected by means of semi-structured interviews, and analyzed through discourse analysis.

    Results:

    Nurses, in their practice and perception, perceive that professional identity is linked to the meaning that involves the word “everything”. This situation constitutes a habitus that directs the range of daily actions, often distant from the profession’s core of knowledge.

    Final considerations:

    Trying to be and do everything in primary health care involves negative repercussions in the professional identity of nurses. Strategic guidance is necessary in order to achieve and embrace elements that reflect the essence of this category.

    Burnout and depressive symptoms in intensive care nurses: relationship analysis

    ABSTRACT

    Objective:

    To analyze the existence of a relationship between burnout and depressive symptoms among intensive care unit nursing staff.

    Method:

    A quantitative, descriptive, cross-sectional study with 91 intensive care nurses. Data collection used a sociodemographic questionnaire, the Maslach Burnout Inventory – Human Services Survey, and the Beck Depression Inventory – I. The Pearson test verified the correlation between the burnout dimension score and the total score from the Beck Depression Inventory. Fisher’s exact test was used to analyze whether there is an association between the diseases.

    Results:

    Burnout was presented by 14.29% of the nurses and 10.98% had symptoms of depression. The higher the level of emotional exhaustion and depersonalization, and the lower professional accomplishment, the greater the depressive symptoms. The association was significant between burnout and depressive symptoms.

    Conclusion:

    Nurses with burnout have a greater possibility of triggering depressive symptoms.
