Objective:
To analyze the occurrence of falls in institutionalized elderly addressing the risks, consequences and antecedents.
Method:
Cross-sectional study carried out with 45 older adults in Long-Term Care Facilities for the Older adult in João Pessoa, Brazil, in June and July 2016. A socio-demographic questionnaire and the Berg Balance Scale were applied, classifying as risk of fall scores lower than 45. Descriptive statistics and tests were conducted: independent t-test, Anova (Tukey), Chi-square, Mann Whitney. Statistically significance was p <0.05. Data were processed in SPSS version 19.0.
Results:
A total of 66.7% (30) falls occurred, 20% (9) of them in the external area, with 66.7% (30) of the participants having hypertension as a previous disease and, as consequence, the fracture was highlighted with 11.2% (5). The Berg Scale had different scores when compared to the falls suffered by the elderly and previous diseases influenced the occurrence of falls (p <0.05).
Conclusion:
It is necessary to implement public financing policies or partnerships that allow environments adaptations aiming at reducing the risks of falls.

Objective:
to investigate the association between socio-demographic and clinical factors and the functional capacity of older adults with leprosy.
Method:
cross-sectional analytical study conducted in Fortaleza, Ceará, Brazil, with 77 older adult patients with leprosy in a referral service, through interview, medical records and application of the Katz Index and the Lawton and Brody Scale.
Results:
the mean age was 68.23 years, with prevalence of men, in stable union/married, with mean monthly family income of 2.04 minimum wages, positive bacillary index, clinical dimorphic form and grade zero disability. In the Lawton and Brody scale, independence (58.5%) was predominant and associated to the variables “living arrangement” and “educational attainment”. Total independence (87.0%) was predominant in the Katz Index and statistically associated to the variable monthly family income.
Conclusion:
most of the participants were classified as independent in the instruments used. Furthermore, the instruments pointed to a greater number of associations with socio-demographic and clinical factors not related to leprosy.

Methods:
a cross-sectional study was conducted in five Brazilian public hospitals with 112 nurses. Data were collected using an adapted questionnaire and analyzed through descriptive and inferential statistics.
Results:
nurses who did not consider themselves capable of collecting blood cultures had a 72% lower chance of performing the collection at the recommended site and an 83% lower chance of using the same needle for blood inoculation into the vials. Nurses working in the emergency department had a 75% lower chance of knowing the international benchmark for blood culture contamination rates, and those with less than 5 years in the position decreased their chance of accuracy in this matter by 79%.
Conclusions:
there are gaps in the knowledge, attitudes, and practices of nurses regarding blood culture collection. Standardization of the technique, periodic education, supervision and guidance of the collection team, and process auditing are recommended coping strategies.

Method:
Integrative review conducted in Lilacs, Medline, Scopus databases and SciELO online library with studies from 2000 to 2016.
Results:
32 studies were included. Only studies that analyzed statistical associations of socioeconomic factors and outcomes related to leprosy were selected.
Conclusion:
Leprosy is greatly affected by the social context in which the patient is inserted, the chances of exposure to illness are the result of a set of not only individual aspects, but also of contexts or collective conditions. It is imperative for Nursing, as an essential part of the multiprofessional team entrusted with the care and surveillance of the disease, to recognize these factors to predict unfavorable outcomes and to develop new practices capable of reducing inequities.

Most professionals were women (87.9%) with a mean age of 40.2 years, 80.6% were nursing technicians and 71.8% of the sample had some degree of exposure to occupational stress.
Conclusions:
