Objectives:
to identify the process of health literacy development among primary care patients, relating it to their self-care practices.
Methods:
qualitative, prospective research with 22 patients from two Family Health Strategy units. Data were obtained through individual semi-structured interviews, examined through descriptive statistics and thematic content analysis.
Results:
the results discuss how participants learn about health and how this resonates in their behaviors, culminating in two thematic categories: “Health knowledge construction”; and “Dialogue between health knowledge construction and patient care actions”.
Final Considerations:
health knowledge is developed mainly through interpersonal relationships, mediated by health professionals through bonding and communication. Community educational actions and training of health professionals in communication can promote health literacy and self-care among patients.

Objectives:
to analyze the rate of antimicrobial dose omission in intensive care units.
Methods:
cross-sectional study carried out between March 1 and September 30, 2023, in intensive care units of a University Hospital in Rio de Janeiro.
Results:
the sample consisted of 452 prescriptions and 1467 antimicrobial doses. The dose omission rate was 4.29%. Each antimicrobial prescribed increased the chance of omission by 51%. The strategy of double-checking prescriptions helped prevent 30% of antimicrobial dose omissions (p=0.0001).
Conclusions:
monitoring the omission of antimicrobial doses can guide nursing actions to improve quality and patient safety, contributing to the prevention of medication errors, antimicrobial stewardship and the fight against antimicrobial resistance.

quantitative study, which consulted medical records of people who attended these services two or more times for 26 months. Descriptive statistics and multiple logistic regression models were used in analysis.
Results:
most people did not have hypertension and/or diabetes record in their Primary Care records. The absence of this record was more frequent in males, aged between 18 and 59 years, with low education and lack of blood pressure. There was association between greater number of people seeking these services in the same year and not monitoring the chronic condition in specialized care.
Conclusions:
people who do not follow up hypertension and/or diabetes in Primary Care are more likely to need assistance due to blood pressure and/or glycemic management.

Objectives:
to analyze the implications of precarious work for the organization of work and for the health of nursing professionals in a surgical center.
Methods:
qualitative, descriptive study in which the interview technique was applied on 30 nursing professionals from a surgical center in a university hospital located in the Southeast region of Brazil. The project was approved by the research ethics committee. Thematic content analysis was applied in the categorization of speeches.
Results:
precarious work in the surgical center negatively affects the organization of work due to staff turnover, loss of skilled talent, and the need for continuous training of temporary workers. It also affects the quality of care, leading to risks to patient safety and workers’ health.Final Considerations: it is important to make work conditions less precarious in order to minimize staff turnover and promote the quality of the service offered and the health of the worker.

Objective:
to report the construction of an educational technology to promote non-violent communication for health professionals.
Methods:
an experience report on the development of an educational technology on non-violent communication for health professionals, prepared by members of a social university extension project. The Plan-Do-Study-Act cycle was used as a process or product management procedure.
Results:
two complete management method cycles were performed. A mini almanac was generated as a final product, which addressed the main elements of non-violent communication, an example of its use in everyday life, hobbies and interspersed activities.
Conclusion:
educational technology construction (mini almanac) by members of a university extension project was facilitated using the Plan-Do-Study-Act cycle, proving to be a resource for disseminating non-violent communication in health work and promoting a culture of peace.

Objective:
to construct and validate an educational booklet on high dose rate gynecological brachytherapy (HDR) for women with gynecologic cancer.
Methods:
a methodological study, with the construction and validity of a booklet based on the Doak, Doak and Root theoretical-methodological framework. Content and appearance validity was guided by the Delphi technique, by 11 judges, selected using Jasper’s criteria. Afterwards, clinical validity was carried out with the target population.
Results:
the booklet, built from evidence from an integrative review, validated with judges, obtained an overall CVI of 0.98. After clinical validity with 27 women, it presents 24 sheets with illustrations produced by a graphic designer, subdivided into topics: gynecological system anatomy and gynecological cancer epidemiology, gynecological brachytherapy definition, therapeutic steps, approach to side effects and management, and two pages for notes.
Conclusions:
the booklet has validity for use in HDR gynecological brachytherapy treatment.
