ORIGINAL ARTICLEHealth literacy development of Primary Health Care patients: qualitative research
Revista Brasileira de Enfermagem. 2024;77(6):e20240154
DOI 10.1590/0034-7167-2024-0154
Views0ABSTRACT
Objectives:
to identify the process of health literacy development among primary care patients, relating it to their self-care practices.
Methods:
qualitative, prospective research with 22 patients from two Family Health Strategy units. Data were obtained through individual semi-structured interviews, examined through descriptive statistics and thematic content analysis.
Results:
the results discuss how participants learn about health and how this resonates in their behaviors, culminating in two thematic categories: “Health knowledge construction”; and “Dialogue between health knowledge construction and patient care actions”.
Final Considerations:
health knowledge is developed mainly through interpersonal relationships, mediated by health professionals through bonding and communication. Community educational actions and training of health professionals in communication can promote health literacy and self-care among patients.

Objectives:
to analyze the rate of antimicrobial dose omission in intensive care units.
Methods:
cross-sectional study carried out between March 1 and September 30, 2023, in intensive care units of a University Hospital in Rio de Janeiro.
Results:
the sample consisted of 452 prescriptions and 1467 antimicrobial doses. The dose omission rate was 4.29%. Each antimicrobial prescribed increased the chance of omission by 51%. The strategy of double-checking prescriptions helped prevent 30% of antimicrobial dose omissions (p=0.0001).
Conclusions:
monitoring the omission of antimicrobial doses can guide nursing actions to improve quality and patient safety, contributing to the prevention of medication errors, antimicrobial stewardship and the fight against antimicrobial resistance.

Objectives:
to analyze the psychometric properties of the ProQOL-BR instrument in hospital nursing professionals.
Methods:
a methodological study to validate the ProQOL-BR. Confirmatory factor analysis, assessment of local and global adjustment quality, Pearson hypothesis testing and Cronbach’s alpha internal consistency analysis were used.
Results:
a total of 490 professionals participated. The model presents adequate quality due to factor weights (λ≥ 0.40), acceptable overall fit quality and adequate chi-square ratio and degrees of freedom (χ2/g.1=2.51) for the parameters of CFI (0.923), GFI (0.902), TLI (0.914) and RMSEA (0.042). In terms of validity, it was shown to be adequate with CC=0.89. The internal consistency obtained by standardized Cronbach’s alpha was 0.761. Criterion validity was shown to be favorable with significant correlations (0.001).
Conclusions:
the instrument was validated regarding content, criteria and reliability. Three questions were removed from the original instrument, ProQOL-BR, leaving the final instrument with 25 questions.

Objectives:
to identify scientific evidence regarding the use of Lean Healthcare approach in the hospitalization and patient discharge process.
Methods:
this is an Integrative Review conducted in the PubMed, LILACS, SCOPUS, CINAHL, Web of Science, and Embase databases.
Results:
out of 904 records identified, three were included in this review. The studies demonstrated that when applied to discharge planning, the Lean philosophy brings favorable results, promoting improvements in the communication process, as well as assisting in workflow organization, with a reduction in length of stay and improvement in the quality of care.
Final Considerations:
although the Lean methodology presents positive results, it is considered that the application of the philosophy in healthcare institutions is still not sustainable, as it is often restricted to specific departments or services. Thus, to maximize the success of implementation, the Lean philosophy needs to be incorporated into the organizational culture, representing the greatest challenge.

Objective:
to analyze conceptions of nurses on child health surveillance in family health units.
Method:
a qualitative study with thematic analysis of the data, based on the paradigm of Health Surveillance. Interviews were conducted with 13 nurses in a countryside city in the state of Sao Paulo.
Results:
nurses conceived child health surveillance as an active monitoring, which should be comprehensive, identifying risks/vulnerabilities, through multidisciplinary and intersectoral actions that are dependent on maternal involvement. We found partial development of these assumptions in practice, due to diffi culties such as lack of maternal involvement in the proposed actions, lack of time for discussion and adoption of measures in the units and disarticulation between levels and sectors of the city.
Conclusion:
a greater political and technical investment is needed to ensure the adoption of this model in different sectors and levels of care of the city.

Objective:
to identify the attributes of the “family insufficiency” concept of the aged in the literature.
Method:
critical literature analysis.
Results:
family insufficiency is characterized as a complex process of psychosocial interaction, founded mainly on low social support of the aged and impaired family ties. Its antecedents are found in contemporary transformations within the family system, intergenerational conflicts, impaired family relationships and social vulnerability of the family. The consequences of family insufficiency include social vulnerability of the aged, decline of psychological and functional health, lower quality of life and unsuccessful aging. An original theoretical proposal was elaborated for the concept of family insufficiency in the elderly, with the identification of its attributes, antecedents and consequences.
Conclusion:
the findings of this study constitute a theoretical advancement in the Family Insufficiency Syndrome in elderly people and provide data for future field research in developing the concept.
