Objetivo:
verificar los câmbios de presión del manguito traqueal antes y después de la higiene oral, elevación de la cabecera del lecho a 0º, 30º y 60º, cambio de decúbito, aspiración traqueal y baño en el lecho.
Método:
La población fue compuesta por 88 pacientes, totalizando 3696 verificaciones de julio a septiembre de 2014.
Resultados:
Los valores de presión fueron analisados em siete procedimentos de atención de enfermeira realizados em la parte de la mañana. Seis apresentaron alteraciones significativas antes y después de la realización de los procedimentos de enfermería. En el periodo de la tarde, cinco de los procedimentos de atención de enfermería realizados apresentaron alteraciones, y por la noche, sólo dos.
Conclusión:
Hubo diferencias antes y después de la realización de la atención de enfermería, demostrando alteración de la presión del manguito. El baño em el lecho y la elevación de la cabecera del lecho a 30º presentó valores de presíonmásalterados em los tres turnos de trabajo, preferentemente después del baño.

Objective:
Verify the changes of endotracheal cuff pressure before and after oral hygiene, head-of-bed elevation at 0º, 30º, and 60º, change in body position, aspiration of the endotracheal tube, and in-bed bathing.
Method:
The study sample was composed of 88 patients. We performed 3,696 checks from July to September 2014.
Results:
Pressure values were analyzed in seven nursing care in the morning. Six of them were significantly altered before and after nursing procedure. In the afternoon, five of the health care provided were altered, and in the evening, only two. Most of pressure values were below recommended.
Conclusion:
There were differences before and after health care provided, showing changes in cuff pressure. In-bed bathing and head-of-bed elevation at 30º were the ones that most altered pressure values in the three working shifts. Therefore, it is necessary to measure cuff pressure at least twice per working shift, preferably after bathing.

Objective:
To understand technical nursing students’ meaning of interacting with family members of hospitalized children.
Method:
Symbolic Interactionism was used as the theoretical framework and Qualitative Content Analysis was the methodological procedure. A total of eight graduates from an institution situated in the city of Osasco, Sao Paulo state, participated in this study. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews.
Results:
A total of five representative themes were revealed: Dealing with difficult situations with family members; Perceiving oneself to be unprepared to interact with family members; Family members being a helpful tool; Developing strategies to obtain a good interaction with family members; and Teachers being facilitators of the interaction with family members.
Final considerations:
To be acquainted with this experience has led to the understanding of the need to include the theme of family care in the curriculum of the Technical Nursing Course. Additionally, the present study contributed to reflections on the importance of such knowledge for this population and to the development of future studies, as this theme has been scarcely explored in the literature.

Objective:
Identify the actions for early detection of breast cancer performed by nurses from basic health units; compare the compliance of these actions with the recommendations from the Ministry of Health; analyze the availability of documents to check these recommendations and analyze the association of variables “training,” “lato sensu training,” and “years of activity” of these professionals with the actions performed.
Method:
A cross-sectional study conducted with 133 nurses from 38 basic health units in the Southeast region of the municipality of São Paulo, interviewed with a validated questionnaire.

Most nurses reported actions to detect this neoplasm. Guidance on the first mammogram age was significantly associated with training, years of activity and availability of Basic Attention Book nº 13.
Conclusion:
This study observed a positive influence of training and years of activity on the actions for early detection of breast cancer and the need for adjustments in national guidelines.

Objective:
Reflect on the essence of care in health vulnerability from the phenomenological perspective of Martin Heidegger.
Method:
Theoretical-reflexive study, anchored in three essential parts: 1) Care in Heidegger; 2) The essence of care in health vulnerability; And 3) Nursing care actions on health vulnerability.
Results:
Vulnerability must be recognized as an indelible trait of the human condition and has its constituents in the human being, co-presence and care. Caring is an interactive process that reveals itself in the relationship with the other. Respecting the integrity of the Being in vulnerability must be a priority in nursing care, through behaviors that privilege the Being.
Conclusion:
Understanding ontological care and its relation to vulnerability under Heidegger’s phenomenological view allowed us to uncover the facets of care in health vulnerability by adding to the nursing knowledge body a comprehensive and reflective perspective.

to identify the scientific publications about adverse events in nursing care in adult hospitalized patients and discuss the main adverse events in nursing care.
Method:
Integrative revision with a qualitative approach. The data were collected at LILACS, MEDLINE, BDENF and the library SCIELO and were submitted to thematic analysis.
Results:
three categories were developed: Adverse events in nursing care; The main causes of the adverse events in nursing care; Attitude of nursing professionals in face of errors. The main events were identified in nursing care with emphasis on the medication error, the failure to perform dressings and falls of patients. The importance of instruments was emphasized for notification of adverse events in the institutions. However the fear of punishment on professionals stimulates the underreporting of events.
Conclusion:
it is important to discuss effective prevention strategies that ensure patient safety in healthcare institutions.

Results:
several non-pharmacological interventions were shown to be effective, to represent low risk for neonates and to have a low operational cost. The ones most often discussed in the literature were: oral administration of glucose/sucrose, non-nutritive sucking, breastfeeding, skin-to-skin contact, facilitated tucking and swaddling.
Conclusion:
healthcare teams should be familiar with these methods and use them more effectively in Neonatal Intensive Care Unit daily routines, so as to ensure that newborns receive qualified and more human care.
