Objective:
to analyze the relationship of occupational health nurses with the other members of the Specialized Service in Safety Engineering and Occupational Medicine (SESMT) and characterize joint actions of these professionals in occupational health.
Method:
qualitative, exploratory, and descriptive study with 34 professionals of seven companies from the South Macroregion of the state of Rio Grande do Sul. Interviews and observations were conducted for content analysis of Bardin.
Results:
the SESMTs are multidisciplinary and intersectoral workers. Nurses have working relations of an interpersonal, technical/legal, and management of logistics/organizational nature, influenced by the technical division of work and by the division in the work environment of the staff, which distances areas, generates conflicts, and fragments the actions of the service.
Conclusion:
SESMT faces challenges to develop a work befitting their legal objectives, once staff and companies need to understand the importance of interdisciplinarity for the success of actions on the workers’ health and safety.

Objective:
to conduct the clinical validation of nursing diagnosis “Willingness for improved infant development”.
Method:
a cross-sectional study, conducted in a Centro de Saúde da Família (Family Health Care center), with 45 healthy breastfed infants. The instrument for collecting the data was prepared based on the literature and validated by nurses. It contained the following variables: sociodemographic, gestational, and obstetrical variables; breastfed infant’s nutritional profile; evaluation of the defining characteristics of the proposed nursing diagnosis.
Results:
all the defining characteristics were found to have high sensitivity values (>90%), positive predictive values (>65%), negative predictive values (>66%); however, low specificity values (<32%). In this study, the defining characteristics we found to have estimates (>0.50) within the ROC curve, which provides good sensitivity and specificity.
Conclusion:
this study verified the structural elements of the proposed nursing diagnosis to be relevant in the clinical context, which justifies the need for its being employed with children, taking into account its contribution to improving nursing care.

Objectives:
to validate the internal structure of the Hospital Resources Assessment Scale for the Preservation of Urinary Continence in the Elderly.
Methods:
validation study of the internal structure of a scale constructed based on the Donabedian conceptual model and an integrative review, with prior content validation. The scale was applied to the target population, and 124 nurses responded to the questionnaire. Exploratory Factor Analysis was performed using the FACTOR software, employing multiple techniques.
Results:
a factorial model with 11 items organized into two dimensions (support for human resources and material resources) was obtained. The “physical structure” dimension was removed from the initial model and adopted as a complementary checklist to the instrument, as it was not possible to obtain a factorable model with this dimension.
Conclusions:
we provide a valid scale that can measure indicators, identifying weaknesses and/or strengths related to hospital resources for the preservation of urinary continence in the elderly.

Results:
a total of 1,514 studies were identified, with 20 articles included in the final sample. The ShotBlocker® device was utilized during subcutaneous and intramuscular injections in children and adults, proving beneficial in reducing pain, anxiety, and fear associated with the procedure.
Final considerations:
the ShotBlocker® is a low-cost, easy-to-use device that can enhance nursing clinical practice during painful procedures. However, studies involving the Brazilian Pikluc® device are scarce. Further research involving both local pressure devices is recommended.
