Objective:
to describe the social representation of nurses on tuberculosis and identify the implications on nursing care.
Method:
qualitative research with the participation of 52 nurses from 23 Basic Health Units of Belém, Pará. A semi-structured interview was conducted with subsequent analysis of the thematic content according to the Theory of Social Representations.
Results:
the social representations of tuberculosis were organized into two categories: infection, evidencing the clinical-epidemiological aspects of the disease, and stigma and prejudice, representing the social aspect. Care is affected by fear – a fact that explains the distance adopted by some nurses when handling ill people.
Conclusion:
the social representations of nurses on tuberculosis remain grounded in fear, leading professionals to keep a certain distance from patients and generating stigma and prejudice, which may affect adherence to treatment.

Objective:
to analyze the discourses about the care provided by nurses operating in Specialized HIV/Aids Outpatient Services in four public institutions of the city of Fortaleza, Ceará, Brazil.
Method:
descriptive and exploratory study with a qualitative approach, which used as a method the discourse analysis.
Results:
when titling the “care as negative”, such title came from the analogy proposed by Freud (1912) with the photographic negative, represented by what that care can configure from the unconscious movement, since nurses did not perceive themselves in the care actions developed by supporting the work of other occupational categories, contributing to maintain the ideology of biomedicine.
Conclusion:
it is necessary to justify and theorize a nursing clinical practice from epistemological issues of the profession, in such a way that nurses can understand their relevance within the care provided.

Objective:
To map the current status of parameters and tools to assess quality of care related to peripheral venous catheter use in adults.
Methods:
Scoping review, conducted in 2022 in the MEDLINE, LILACS, CINAHL and SCOPUS databases and with a publication time limit from 2013 to 2022.
Results:
The sample consisted of 15 articles, summarized in the following categories: Indication, documentation and registration, coverage assessment, connection, stabilization and signs and symptoms inherent to the catheter. The use of a complete instrument, with the domains observed in this review, may have a positive impact on a more effective and safe clinical practice.
Conclusions:
The present review mapped the evidence about the insertion and maintenance of peripheral venous catheters that can be improved with training of good practices and the quality of the team, regarding the use of tools, materials and instruments for the evaluation of care.
