Objectives:
to understand nurses’ experience regarding patient safety in mobile pre-hospital care.
Method:
a qualitative, exploratory and descriptive study, conducted with nurses active in mobile pre-hospital care services. Semi-structured interviews were conducted, audio-graved and submitted to Bardin’s content analysis.
Results:
from four thematic categories established, nurses reported the care and management skills necessary to work in this service. They demonstrated a commitment to ensuring safe care for patients, staff and spectators. They highlighted the actions taken to prevent and mitigate incidents. However, they based their experiences on practice protocols and individual actions, expressing the need to improve knowledge about patient safety.
Final Considerations:
mobile pre-hospital care nurses’ experience in relation to patient safety was limited, suggesting the need for training on the subject, alignment of work processes and implementation of strategies, aiming to guarantee safe care.

Objectives:
to analyze the repercussions of the COVID-19 pandemic on tuberculosis control actions from the perspective of primary health care professionals.
Methods:
this descriptive study with a qualitative approach was conducted from November 2022 to April 2023, using semi-structured interviews with 11 key informant professionals from primary health care units in a Brazilian capital. Data were organized using Atlas.ti 22.0 software and subjected to thematic-categorical content analysis.
Results:
the pandemic scenario caused alterations in the work process, necessitating abrupt adaptations, and led to detrimental impacts on the health of professionals and tuberculosis control actions, which were reduced or discontinued.
Final Considerations:
there was evident unpreparedness and a lack of resources from various governmental levels and health services to handle the public health emergency situation without severe harm to the provision of essential services.

Objectives:
to analyze interobserver agreement in the Reception and Risk Stratification in Obstetrics protocol implementation.
Methods:
a cross-sectional study carried out during Reception and Risk Stratification in Obstetrics implementation, conducted in a tertiary hospital in southern Brazil with 891 participants in January 2020. Descriptive and interobserver agreement analysis was carried out using the Kappa coefficient in the risk stratification assigned by the triage nurse and reviewed by the researcher.
Results:
around half of the calls (55.6%) were stratified as not very urgent (green), followed by urgent (yellow) (31.8%), very urgent (orange) (9.3%), not urgent (blue) (3.4%) and no emerging stratification (red). Agreement analysis of revised stratification found Kappa values of 0.20 (blue), 0.54 (green), 0.77 (yellow) and 0.80 (orange).
Conclusions:
most appointments were non-urgent. The agreement analysis between the revised and assigned risk stratification revealed greater interobserver agreement as the priority level increased.

Objectives:
to understand nurses’ experiences in caring for people with mental health problems hospitalized due to clinical comorbidities in non-psychiatric Inpatient Units.
Methods:
qualitative study, guided by Alfred Schutz’s social phenomenology. Sixteen phenomenological interviews were conducted. The content was analyzed and discussed based on the literature, through the composition of three categories of analysis.
Results:
three categories emerged in the study: Challenges in care faced by nurses; Fragmented care action; and Ideal care. The disarticulation of the clinic was revealed, as described by nurses, showing care as an action far removed from the comprehensiveness of a person. Nurses’ performance is guided predominantly by biomedical reference, disregarding appreciation of subjectivity.
Final Considerations:
it was observed that nurses attribute the responsibility for patient care to factors external to their life-world, when, in fact, these aspects should be components that help them in comprehensive care construction.

Objective:
to identify evidence available in the literature on instruments and methodologies used to assess healthcare professionals’ knowledge about cancer care for the transgender population.
Methods:
a scoping review was conducted in seven databases, including studies that answered the question: what is the healthcare professionals’ level of knowledge about cancer care for the transgender population?
Results:
forty-one articles were selected that dealt specifically with healthcare professionals’knowledge in relation to care for the LGBTQIAPN+ population, especially the transgender population. Eighteen studies assessed patients’ perceptions of professionals’knowledge, whereas other studies used their own assessment tools, considering the global context of LGBTQIAPN+ health.
Conclusions:
there is no tested and validated instrument that assesses the knowledge about the transgender population’s oncological health, highlighting the need to construct and validate an instrument focused on this population’s needs.

Objective:
To identify factors associated with poor sleep quality in elderly dependent individuals in social vulnerability.
Method:
Cross-sectional study with 59 elderly dependent individuals assisted by Family Health Units in São Carlos/SP. The following tools were used: Katz Index, Lawton and Brody Scale, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, Addenbrooke’s Cognitive Examination Revised, Fried’s Frailty Phenotype, Geriatric Depression Scale (15 items), Perceived Stress Scale, Family APGAR, Social Support Scale from the Medical Outcomes Study, and World Health Organization Quality of Life, abbreviated and “old” versions.
Results:
The majority of participants were women (52.5%), aged 60-74 years (71.1%), and had poor sleep quality (76.2%). Stress (OR=1.12; 95%CI=1.02-1.22) and polypharmacy (OR=7.39; 95%CI=1.22-44.73) increased the chances of poor sleep quality, while physical activity decreased these chances (OR=0.15; 95%CI=0.02-0.79).
Conclusion:
Stress and polypharmacy are associated with poor sleep quality in elderly dependent individuals.

Objective:
To analyze content validity evidence and response processes of a bank of items for measuring vulnerability to physical inactivity in adults.
Method:
Methodological study, with 13 specialists and 46 representatives of the target population. The Content Validity Index (CVI) and binomial test were calculated; data obtained through validity based on response processes were collected through interviews.
Results:
Of the 105 constructed items, 16 were excluded (CVI<0.78); 89 items showed agreement <80% in the psychometric criteria, being modified. Of the 101 items that remained (CVI>0.78), 34 were changed and 4 were deleted after evaluating the evidence of response processes. In the end, 97 items remained, with a global CVI of 0.92, organized into two dimensions: Subject (CVI=0.91) and Social (CVI=0.94).
Conclusion:
The items presented adequate parameters and evidence of validity; and can subsidize the construction of instruments that consider the subject’s and social vulnerability in understanding physical inactivity.

Objective:
to analyze the repercussions of transphobia on trans men’s and transmasculine people’s health.
Method:
a qualitative study carried out with 38 participants, 35 trans men and three trans men, who attended specialized transgender health services in Bahia, Brazil. In-depth interviews were carried out between June 2019 and February 2020. The Discourse of Collective Subject technique was used and interpretation based on the theoretical concept of transphobia.
Results:
transphobia has intra and interpersonal repercussions on the life and health of trans men and transmasculine people who attend health services. There were experiences of violence in the private space, fraying of family ties; discrimination in the school space; limitation in professional/work opportunities; barriers to self-care and access to health services; elaboration of trans identity protection strategies; consequences of transphobia on psycho-emotional health.
Conclusion:
transphobia is a social disease that affects different life and health dimensions. It causes damage to the socialization of trans men and transmasculine people, in addition to health service spaces as well as in family environments, schools, universities and at work, which result in non-adherence to self-care, distancing from health services and psycho-emotional distress.

The analysis of data has allowed us to describe the experience of the father from three thematic units: “fatherhood boundaries”, “high responsibility for the child” and “social network and support”.
Conclusion:
The father feels insecure with the idea of taking care of his child at home because of the lack of professional support and the initial contact with the child in the Neonatal Intensive-Care Unit.

Objective:
to characterize the profile and identify the activities developed by nurses from the Mobile Emergency Care Service of a state of southern Brazil.
Method:
an exploratory, descriptive study. Data were collected through a questionnaire with 63 nurses.
Results:
the profile showed a workforce predominantly female, young and having specialized training. The activities were organized in the dimensions of caring, managing and educating, verifying the predominance of the first one. Care actions involved multiple procedures, but the use of the Systematization of Nursing Care (SNC) was not mentioned in the development of care activities. Then, the managerial dimension with a predominance of bureaucratic activities was emphasized. Educational activities were less prominent.
Conclusion:
care actions are the focus of the activities of nurses, predominantly the prescribed institutional care without the use of instruments such as SNC that could contribute to the greater visibility of their professional work.
