Objetivo:
El objetivo de este estudio fue analizar los factores que afectan la actitud de la comunidad hacia la vacunación contra el COVID-19 en el distrito de Tangerang.
Métodos:
Estudio transversal en el que se utilizó un muestreo por conveniencia para seleccionar a 400 encuestados. Los criterios de inclusión fueron vivir en el distrito de Tangerang, edad 18-55 años y trabajar. Se utilizó un cuestionario en línea, el cual pasó pruebas de validez y confiabilidad. Este estudio recibió aprobación ética.
Resultados:
La mayoría de los encuestados tenía un alto nivel de educación (48,50%), bajos ingresos (72,50%), alto conocimiento (78%) y una actitud positiva (76,50%) respecto a la vacunación contra el COVID-19. La prueba chi-cuadrado reveló una correlación entre el conocimiento y las actitudes hacia la vacunación contra el COVID-19 (p=0,001) y los niveles educativos (p=0,001). No hubo correlación entre los ingresos y las actitudes (p=0,094).
Conclusiones:
Los profesionales de la salud deben realizar una amplia socialización y visitas cara a cara con personas con acceso limitado a la información para promover una actitud positiva y ampliar el alcance de la vacunación contra el COVID-19.

Objetivos:
debatir sobre aspectos éticos en la atención de enfermería a personas transgénero.
Métodos:
estudio reflexivo fundamentado sobre los dilemas que se plantean en los cuidados de enfermería a personas transgénero. El relato se ha estructurado en torno a los cuatro principios bioéticos.
Resultados:
la atención sanitaria a las personas trans es compleja, transversal a muchos dispositivos y especialidades y longitudinal en el tiempo por lo que precisa de la actuación coordinada. Existe un marco ético en el que se encuadran los cuidados de enfermería que se precisan en la atención a este colectivo.
Consideraciones Finales:
la enfermera como agente de salud puede asumir diversas líneas generales en la atención a pacientes transgénero. Para ello, se debe brindar formación adicional no solo a los profesionales, también a los estudiantes de enfermería y de las demás ciencias de la salud.

Objective:
To analyze the contributions of the Brazilian Nursing Association and the Federal and Regional Nursing Councils in the literature for the professionalization of nursing in the light of Eliot Freidson’s theoretical conceptions.
Methods:
Integrative review of the literature, of socio-professional historical interest, carried out from June to November 2021, through the question: How did professional associations contribute to the professionalization of Brazilian nursing according to the literature from 2010 to 2020? The evidence were organized in a synoptic table, which allowed the construction of a conceptual map.
Results:
In the 23 selected studies, the professional associations presented scientific, social and political contributions, which shape the professional field of nursing, enabling knowledge/expertise, autonomy and self-regulation.
Final considerations:
The efforts of these institutions reaffirm nursing as an academic and consulting profession, capable of exerting control over the essence of nursing work. They strive to consolidate nursing as a legitimate professional field of health in Brazil.

Objectives:
to identify in scientific literature which simulated clinical scenarios were developed and validated for teaching and learning in nursing.
Methods:
integrative review, carried out in seven sources of information. The Rayyan program was used for selection, content analysis to explore the findings and the methodological assessment tool of the validity process, entitled Quality Appraisal tool for Validity Studies.
Results:
initially, 1,179 manuscripts were identified and 14 were part of the sample. Two categories were defined: Profile of simulated clinical scenarios produced in nursing; and Clinical skills developed and their assessment mechanisms.
Final Considerations:
there was a preponderance of high-fidelity scenarios, built in Brazil in the last five years, aimed at nursing students on the themes of emergency, maternal care and stomatherapy, addressing the assessment of cognitive, psychomotor and affective skills in nursing. Most studies obtained good methodological quality in their content validity process.

Objectives:
to analyze the factors associated with psychopathological symptoms among nurses at a university hospital.
Methods:
a cross-sectional study developed at a university hospital in Pernambuco, in which 90 nurses participated. A questionnaire with social and professional characteristics and the Symptom Assessment Scale were used.
Results:
an association was found between the variable changing profession and the presence of characteristic symptoms of psychoticism, somatization and anxiety among nurses.
Conclusions:
the emergence of psychopathological symptoms has influenced nurses’ desire to search for another profession. This evidence reinforces the need for greater investments in better working conditions and welcoming actions in the work environment, in order to provide a better quality of professional life and promote the health of these workers.

Method:
an observational and cross-sectional study, conducted between September and October 2015, after approval by the Research Ethics Committee. A questionnaire was applied containing sociodemographic, educational and related components to the accomplishment of dressings, dressings choice and orientation. Data were analyzed by using Chi-square, Fisher’s exact test, Student’s t-Test and Pearson’s correlation.
Results:
37 professionals participated in the study, most of whom were technicians (56.8%), women (91.9%) and with a mean age of 32 years. The professionals presented 56.5% of correct answers. There were no statistically significant associations between sociodemographic/educational variables and number of correct answers.
Conclusion:
there was a lack of important knowledge about care for patients with MFW, which should guide strategies for the oncology staff training.

Objective:
to map the epidemiological profile of children and adolescents with COVID-19 in the world literature.
Methods:
a scoping review systematized by the Joanna Briggs Institute protocol in the PubMed/MEDLINE, CINAHL, Web of Science, Scopus, Science direct and Google Scholar databases. Articles with children and/or adolescents with laboratory diagnosis of COVID-19 were used.
Results:
thirty-two articles were included in the review. Most children and adolescents were male, with contamination by family transmission. The most frequent clinical manifestations were fever, cough and diarrhea. Ten studies cited pre-existing condition/disease, and hospital length ranged from one to twenty days. Three deaths were reported and no study presented race/color, education and socioeconomic conditions.
Conclusion:
it was possible to screen the epidemiological profile with information about age group, sex, probable contamination of the disease, clinical manifestations, presence of pre-existing disease/condition, hospitalization and deaths among children and adolescents with COVID-19.

Objectives:
to analyze the characteristics of stigma in the interactions of people with pain and sickle cell disease and the coping strategies adopted.
Methods:
qualitative study, conducted in Bahia’s reference units between January and July 2018. In-depth interviews were applied to 25 adults, followed by content analysis and interpretation in light of the Sociological Theory of Stigma.
Results:
four categories emerged from the data: Stigma in interactions with family members; Stigma in interactions with people in the general public; Stigma in interactions with health workers; and Strategies for coping with stigma.
Final Considerations:
in the participants’ interactions, stigma produced discrediting pain reports, labeling and stereotyping, blaming patients for not improving their health, discrimination, racism, inadequate pain assessment, and delay in care. Coping included silencing, covering up, aggressive behavior, exposure to risk, reading religious texts and praises, and church attendance.

Objectives:
to analyze nurses’ role in assisting patients in palliative care, with emphasis on the spiritual dimension, in the light of Theory of Human Caring.
Methods:
this is an exploratory, qualitative study, carried out in a hospital in João Pessoa, Paraíba, between August and December 2019, with 10 nurses. For data collection, semi-structured interviews were used. For analysis, we opted for content analysis.
Results:
the spiritual dimension of care is contemplated by several religious and spiritual practices. These are respected and encouraged by nurses, although there is difficulty in providing care for the spiritual dimension.
Final Considerations:
nurses have attitudes consistent with Jean Watson’s Theory and apply the Caritas Process elements during assistance to patients’ spiritual dimension in palliative care.

Objective:
to analyze perceptions of the Family Health Strategy (FHS) professional team about mental health-disorder and to identify health actions developed by the team for people with mental disorders.
Method:
a qualitative study of a Marxist theoretical framework and a dialectical method. 99 FHS middle and higher level professionals from São Paulo participated. Semi-structured interviews were conducted. Data were submitted to ALCESTE software and Thematic Content Analysis.
Results:
there were three empirical categories: Training in Mental Health; Perception of the FHS professional about mental health-disorder; and Health actions developed by the FHS team with people with mental disorders. Actions that converge and diverge from the psychosocial care model were identified.
Final considerations:
there is an effort from professionals to work according to the psychosocial care model, but it is necessary to invest in the Permanent Education in Health of these professionals to overcome barriers and foster successful territorial actions.

Objectives:
to evaluate hospitalization costs of patients with and without Healthcare-Associated Infections an Intensive Care Unit.
Methods:
a retrospective case-control study. Data collection was retrieved from the medical records of Intensive Care Unit of a medium-sized public hospital in Goiás-Brazil. For each case, two controls were selected. Data on socioeconomic, clinical, and hospital costs were collected. To verify associations between variables, Odds Ratio and linear regression were calculated.
Results:
a total of 21 patients diagnosed with Healthcare-Associated Infections and 42 controls were evaluated. The hospitalization cost for patients with infection was four times higher than for non-infection patients (p-value<0.001). There was an association between infection and higher mortality (p-value <0.001), longer hospital-stay (p-value =0.021), and higher hospital costs (p-value =0.007).
Conclusions:
hospitalization costs of diagnosed Healthcare-Associated Infections patients are high compared to those who do not have this diagnosis.

Objectives:
to evaluate the effects of music on the physiological stress and distress of cancer patients being treated in a hospital.
Methods:
quasi-experimental study carried out with cancer patients hospitalized in the nursing wards of a public hospital. There was a single 15-minute intervention using music. It was individual, and headphones were used for patients to listen to three songs chosen by each one. The levels of stress and distress were measured before and after the intervention, using music to analyze the cortisol in the saliva and the answers to the distress thermometer. The significance level of the statistical analysis was 5%, using the non-parametric Wilcoxon test.
Results:
the mean age of the 26 patients was 56 years old. Most were female, white, and had breast cancer. After intervention, there were statistically significant diminutions in both stress and distress — p < 0.001.
Conclusions:
the use of music diminishes the stress and the distress of cancer patients.
