Objective:
to characterize undergraduate nursing courses according to Enade (National Student Performance Exam) in 2010 and 2013.
Method:
a quantitative documental study was performed and descriptive statistics was used for data organization and analysis.
Results:
Enade report analysis enabled the identification of a reduction in the total number of institutions providing undergraduate nursing courses that passed the evaluation process. The Southeastern, Northeastern and Southern regions of Brazil included the highest numbers of courses assessed and showed the best results in the two evaluation cycles. Additionally, the courses characterized as “without a ranking” were mainly held at private institutions.
Conclusion:
the results of these evaluation cycles are important to support investigative and intervention processes about and with undergraduate nursing courses.

Objective:
to teach airway management with laryngeal mask to nursing students through dialogic lectures along with laboratory activities or exclusively through simulation class.
Method:
randomized controlled trial. Population: eighth semester bachelor’s degree students. Sample: 17 students randomized in the intervention group (IG: simulation class) or control group (CG: dialogic lecture along with laboratory activities). Elaborated and validated instruments: written test, simulation scenario, objective structured clinical examination (checklist). Data collected from workshop. Structured clinical examination in simulation scenario filmed and evaluated by 3 experts, and written tests were applied.
Results:
24.4±4.2 years old. Right answers percentage: CG: pre-test 66±10%; post-test 84±8%. IG: pre-test 65±5%; post-test 86±11%. Scenario: CG 78±5.2%; IG 84±8.9%.
Conclusion:
strategies allowed the development of knowledge, skills and decision-making, which are essential to achieve the scenario objectives. Knowledge was incorporated in airway management with laryngeal mask, shown by the increase in the scenario and written tests scores.

Objective:
to analyze the influence of two São Paulo State experiences in the choice of psychosocial care centers as guiding service providers for the national mental health policy.
Method:
qualitative, exploratory, and descriptive study using oral history as a methodology and theoretical reference.
Results:
eight professionals involved in the deployment of the mental health policy in the cities of Santos and São Paulo between the years 1989 and 1992 were interviewed. Data were analyzed after treating the narratives and grouping the most significant content. Two central themes emerged: development of the local-regional model, and the model’s influence on the choice of the psychosocial care center.
Conclusion:
due to greater insertion of the Santos experience group in the spheres of the federal government, its influence on the choice of the substitute model was higher in ideological terms, whereas the São Paulo model had its influence restricted for political reasons.

Objective:
to identify cardiovascular risk in educators (administrators and teachers) from the South region of Brazil, evaluated before and after intervention with stress management activities and health education.
Method:
longitudinal study of the before and after type. The sample consisted of 49 participants. Variables studied were socio-demographic, morbidity antecedents and lifestyle habits. Measured risk factors for cardiovascular disease were arterial blood pressure, body mass index, ratio of waist to hip size, lipid profile and capillary blood glucose. Stress levels were evaluated using the Lipp Stress Symptoms Inventory (LSSI). The study ran for four months, with weekly meetings of a multidisciplinary team.
Results:
after intervention, the study observed a statistically significant reduction of the investigated variables, except for blood glucose levels in the administrators group.
Conclusion:
stress management activities are potential tools in the identification and control of the risk factors studied, particularly in those involving multi- and trans-disciplinary focus.

Views0ABSTRACT
Objective:
To analyze how social representations of hospital and community care are structured in two groups of nursing students – 1st and 4th years.
Method:
Qualitative research oriented by the Theory of Social Representations. We used a questionnaire with Free Association of Words. Data were analyzed in the Software IRaMuTeQ 0.6 alpha 3.
Results:
We applied the method of Descending Hierarchical Classification and obtained four classes. Class 4 has the largest social representation (30.41%) within the corpus. The two organizational axes are nurse and disease/patient in the central core. On the periphery are the care and help related to the nurse and the treatment and prevention associated with the disease.
Conclusion:
Social representations focus on disease/patient and on the role of nurses in the treatment, prevention, and care. Health promotion and the social determinants of health are absent from the social representations of students.

A statistically significant association was identified between the adherence variable and receiving medical guidelines on how to take medications, and having adverse reactions. Conclusion: Nurses must know the prevalence of medication adherence and related factors in order to plan interventions that promote therapeutic success.
Conclusion:

Objective:
To verify the effectiveness of the group brief intervention (GBI), performed by nurses in motivational stages to change the pattern of alcohol intake.
Method:
Randomized controlled trial with 3-month follow-up. The ruler of readiness for change was applied in 180 individuals with risk or harmful alcohol intake pattern in basic health unit. Only the experimental group (EG) was submitted to the intervention. Both groups (experimental and control [CG]) participated in the follow-up.
Results:
EG had a mean score before GBI=6.55 (SD=3.41) points (preparation). After GBI=8.00 (SD=2.88) points (action) and in the follow-up 7.92 (SD=3.06) points (action). CG presented a mean score before GBI=5.42 (SD=3.26) points (preparation); after GBI=6.67 (SD=3.05) points (preparation) and in the follow up had a mean score of 4.80 (SD=2.86) points (contemplation). There was a statistically significant difference between the two groups at the motivational stages (p≤ 0,03).
Conclusion:
It was evidenced that GBI was effective in increasing the motivation to change harmful alcohol intake.

Objective:
to report the experience of developing pedagogical mediations in a Virtual Learning Environment implemented in a nursing faculty during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Methods:
an experience report on the construction of a distance course aimed at graduates and residents of a nursing faculty at a public university located in the city of Rio de Janeiro.
Results:
the course’s conception, operationalization and implementation were the result of a collective work that culminated in a non-formal, virtual and problematic teaching process, which reached a participation rate of 82% of enrolled students.
Final considerations:
even in times of social isolation, the course promoted collaborative learning of knowledge about COVID-19 and strengthened the relationship between professors and students. The possibility of carrying out distance activities based on solid methodological proposals that contradict the content logic often observed in distance learning is emphasized.

Objective:
to identify sociodemographic and health characteristics according to age groups and to analyze the association between self-assessed health status and satisfaction with regular/bad life with sociodemographic characteristics, global functioning and falls of older adults linked to home care within the primary health care network.
Method:
cross-sectional study with 124 older adults, conducted using home interviews. A sociodemographic data and health status questionnaire was used, together with Barthel Index, Lawton Instrumental Activities of Daily Living Scale (IADL), the Mini-Mental State Examination, the Geriatric Depression Scale and the Timed Up and Go Test. Bivariate and multivariate analyses (Poisson regression) were applied.
Results:
there was a predominance of female octogenarians. Self-assessment of regular/bad health was associated with mild (p=0.002) and severe (p<0.001) depressive symptoms. Satisfaction with regular/bad life was associated with fear of falling (p=0.019) and with mild (p<0.001) and severe (p<0.001) depressive symptoms.
Conclusion:
depressive symptoms were associated with a worse life satisfaction and health self-assessment.
