Objetivo:
evaluar el riesgo de desarrollar úlceras por presión en pacientes hospitalizados con VIH/SIDA.
Método:
estudio cuantitativo descriptivo con 35 pacientes. Caracterización epidemiológica y clínica de los pacientes en un instrumento mediante la Escala de Braden. Las variables se realizaron en forma descriptiva simple, por números absolutos.
Resultados:
la incidencia de la PU observada en 2 pacientes, y las comorbilidades fueron neumocistosis pneumocisti carinii y tuberculosis pulmonar. Se reveló que la subescala de fricción y fuerza de deslizamiento obtuvo una puntuación más baja, seguido por actividad y la nutrición, la movilidad y la humedad. La percepción sensorial obtuvo la puntuación más alta. Dos pacientes fueron clasificados como de “alto riesgo” a 6 de “alto riesgo”, 3 para “bajo riesgo” y el otro “ningún riesgo”.
Conclusión:
la calificación de riesgo, mediante el uso de escalas proporciona información objetiva para la toma de decisione de enfermería a un modo específico.

Objective:
to assess the risk of pressure ulcer development among hospitalized HIV/Aids.
Metod:
study quantitative descriptive with 35 patients admitted to an infectious diseases hospital in Curitiba-PR-BR. Characterized clinical and epidemiological of patients using a data collection instrument and the Braden Scale. Data was compiled using Excel® and a simple descriptive analysis.
Results:
two patients were found to have pressure ulcers and the most common comorbidities associated with HIV/Aids were pneumocystis pneumonia, caused by pneumocisti cariini (16), and pulmonary tuberculosis (13). The lowest scores were obtained in the friction and shear subscale, followed by the activity, nutrition, mobility and moisture subscales. The highest score was obtained in the sensory perception subscale. Two patients were classified as ‘very high risk’, six as ‘high risk’, three as ‘low risk’, and the rest as ‘no risk’.
Conclusion:
risk assessment using scales provides objective information to assist with systemized and targeted nursing decision-making.

Objectives:
to develop and validate the content of two instruments for promoting medication reconciliation for the transition of care of hospitalized children.
Methods:

A content validity index of at least 0.80 was adopted.
Results:
three rounds of evaluation were carried out to reach the validity index of the proposed contents, whereas a new analysis of 50% of the 20 items of the instrument aimed at families, and 28.5% of the 21 items aimed at professionals was necessary. The instrument aimed at families reached an index of 0.93, and the instrument for professionals, 0.90.
Conclusions:
the proposed instruments were validated. It is now possible to proceed with practical implementation studies to identify their influence on safety during medication reconciliation at transition of care.

Objective:
to analyze the professional struggles between nursing organizational entities, in Rio de Janeiro, during the Regional Nursing Council’s electoral process (1990-1993 administration).
Method:
historical study. We used journalistic articles, normative documents, legislation and semi-structured interviews with five nursing professionals who participated in this process. Interpretation of findings was supported by Bourdieu’s concepts of habitus, field, capital, and symbolic power.
Results:
Electoral Code changes of the aforementioned council, under the influence of administration (1987-1990), candidate for re-election, influenced the disclosure and eligibility criteria, making it difficult for broad participation, especially of Associação Brasileira de Enfermagem Rio de Janeiro Section.
Final considerations:
nursing, in this period, generated a field of disputes related to positions of power and gender, which was evidenced in the electoral process studied, which highlighted using limiting strategies by a group, making it difficult for the entire category to participate.
