Objective:
to analyze the aspects that potentialize groups in Primary Health Care according to their coordinators and participants.
Method:
This is a descriptive study with a qualitative approach, conducted with a health promotion group affiliated with a Family Health Unit. The data were collected by means of focus groups with participants and community workers who were submitted to thematic content analysis.
Results:
the analysis gave rise to three thematic categories: The group is our medicine; Healthy living and learning; and Priceless leadership.
Conclusion:
the leads identified during the study were as follows: group organization involves investment in motivation and leadership by the coordinators; production of grouping and cohesion is a result of participants and coordinators meeting together, interspersed with dialog, things said and left unsaid that the subjects expressed in the group dynamic; the sense of belonging guarantees their placement in the group based on the recognition of their knowledge and affective, social and health needs.

Objective:
the objective of this study was to understand the meaning of the harmful use of crack by people undergoing addiction treatment.
Method:
qualitative approach of social research on strategic modality was used. Field observation, preparation of field diary and focus groups, and data analysis through the method of interpreting meaning were carried out.
Results:
the results contributed to the construction of three thematic categories: “The discovery of crack and other drugs” that describes the experimentation with crack and other drugs; “The pain of the pleasure”, key category that describes the moments after crack experimentation and that, many times, turns into addiction, which leads the person into a cycle of short periods of attempts at abstinence, relapse, and relentless consumption; and “Return to normal life”.
Conclusion:
treating people with crack addiction must be carried out in ways that narrow the distance between these people and their families, society and health care.

Objective:
to analyze the intimate partner violence in adolescence from the perspective of gender and generation.
Method:
Quantitative, descriptive, and exploratory research. 111 adolescents participated in this study, with ages from 15 to 19 years old.
Results:
We found that 91% of participants have perpetrated and 90.1% have undergone at least one of the natures of violence. The intimate partner violence in adolescence constitutes a form of gender violence, and gender constructions have determined the suffered and perpetrated aggressions, possibly also determining the naturalization and legitimization of such aggressions. The inequality of power between generations may determine greater vulnerability of youngsters to the phenomenon.
Conclusion:
The historical and social construction of masculinity and femininity and the power inequalities set by these constructions converge with the power inequality between generations. Thus, gender and generation are determinants of intimate partner violence in adolescence, as well as of the vulnerability of adolescents to this phenomenon.

Objectives:
to identify predisposing and enabling factors as well as the health needs associated with the discontinuance of outpatient follow-up of newborns who were hospitalized at neonatal intensive care unit.
Methods:
cross-sectional study, using the behavioral model of health services use. The study was composed of 358 mothers and newborns referred to the outpatient follow-up after discharge. Characterization, perception of social support, postnatal depression, and attendance to appointments data were collected, analyzed by the R software (3.3.1).
Results:
outpatient follow-up was discontinued by 31.28% of children in the first year after discharge. In multiple regression analysis, the chance of discontinuance was higher for newborns who used mechanical ventilation (OR = 1.68; 95%CI 1.04-2.72) and depended on technology (OR = 3.54; 95%CI 1.32-9.5).
Conclusions:
predisposing factors were associated with the discontinuance of follow-up; enabling factors and health needs did not present a significant association. Children with more complex health conditions require additional support to participate in follow-up programs, thus ensuring the continuity of care.

Objective:
To identify the prevalence of xerostomia in women undergoing chemotherapy for breast cancer.
Method:
Prospective cohort with 27 women who underwent up to 16 sessions of intravenous chemotherapy. Data collection was performed at the outpatient clinic of a university hospital in the city of São Paulo, where two forms were applied before the start of treatment and the Xerostomia Inventory before and after each chemotherapy session.
Results:
Complaints of dry mouth were present in 48.1% of women before chemotherapy, and they were approximately 28 times more likely to develop dry mouth during treatment. It was observed that the use of antiemetics contributed to the occurrence of xerostomia, and the anti-ulcerous were presented as a protective factor.
Conclusion:
The study identified both a high prevalence of xerostomia regardless of the chemotherapy used and the need to create protocols to improve the quality of life of these patients.

Objective:
to develop the gerontological nursing care process among the elderly with Parkinson’s disease, aiming at the promotion of health through the creation of gerontotechnologies for fall prevention.
Method:
Convergent Care Research was used as a methodological route. Data were collected from February to October 2017, with the participation of nine elderly people with Parkinson’s disease. An educational booklet, a memory game called “não cai istepô”, a memory game called “caiu de maduro” were developed through clinical evaluation through scales, recorded semi-structured interview and workshops.
Results:
the application of gerontotechnology resulted from the elderly in self-care, empowerment and knowledge through play, revealing interest in behavior change, independence and learning, as well as serving as a facilitator of care.
Conclusion:
the gerontotechnologies presented as a playful and innovative instrument for the nursing gerontological care process.

Objective:
To evaluate stress, and to associate it with sociodemographic and clinical aspects of nurses from the Mobile Emergency Care Service.
Method:
This is an observational, cross-sectional and quantitative study conducted with 123 nurses, who answered a questionnaire to assess sociodemographic and clinical variables, and the Job Stress Scale, which evaluates stress in the workplace.
Results:
The results indicated that most of them were women, 20 to 40 years old, married, without another employment bond and with specialization course. They had low control and low demand at work and performed a passive work. Women reported passive work and high stress levels, while men were equally divided in active and passive work with low stress levels.
Conclusion:
Passive work is harmful to health and it is related to lack of autonomy, decision-making, and social support. It may lead to reduced ability to solve problems faced in daily work routine.

Objective:
To discuss the methods employed to evaluate the effectiveness of clinical surface cleaning and disinfection (C&D).
Method:
This is a theoretical reflection based on scientific studies and the experience of the authors. Knowledge and current gaps, the need for further studies, and practical application of the methods were approached.
Results:
There are four main methods used to evaluate the effectiveness of clinical surface C&D: visual inspection, fluorescent markers, microbiological cultures, and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) bioluminescence. The first two are used to evaluate the process and to predict adherence to protocols by the staff, and the last two are employed to evaluate the results, therefore being the most relevant to assess the risk of infection.
Final considerations:
The ideal method was not found, because all of them showed limitations. There is a need for strategies to optimize the precision of these methods.
