Objetivo:
Describir la ocurrencia de mortalidad por cáncer cervical en Recife (PE), en el noreste de Brasil.
Método:
Este fue un estudio ecológico de series temporales que utilizó datos del Sistema de Información de Mortalidad (SIM) sobre el número total de muertes por cáncer cervical (C53 ICD10) ocurridas entre 2000 y 2012.
Resultados:
Se observó que el riesgo de muerte por esta forma de cáncer fue mayor entre las mujeres mayores de 60 años, las de color de piel mixto (53.24%), las que sólo trabajaban en casa (63.16%) y las que no tenían pareja (44.32%).
Conclusión:
Se requieren esfuerzos adicionales para mantener los programas de detección precoz y educación sanitaria y para utilizar estrategias terapéuticas de mayor eficacia, ya que la mortalidad por esta forma de cáncer se considera evitable cuando se diagnostica tempranamente.

Objective:
To investigate compliance of national patient safety protocols in Emergency Care Units (UPA) of the Paraná State.
Method:
From April until September 2016, the exploratory stage of the action research was conducted on stratified sampling with 377 patients of eight units, with use of verification instrument of basic safety actions.
Results:
The absence of systematic identification of patients, fall risk assessment and signaling and development of pressure injuries were evidenced. We observed that 52.8% of parenteral solutions in use were not identified and that, in only 29.4% of the cases, the allergic condition was investigated. In 80.6% of the emergency units there was availability of alcoholic solution to hand hygiene.
Conclusion:
We concluded that the non-compliance of basic actions concerning patient safety exposes users to preventable adverse events and demands systematized actions to comply with government guidelines and promote quality of health assistance.

Objective:
To describe the determining factors in hand hygiene management among nurses and identify associated collective health challenges.
Method:
Cross-sectional descriptive study. Data were collected using a questionnaire that was applied in four internal medicine units of a hospital of reference in Portugal.
Results:
The sample was composed of 50 nurses aged 26 to 55 years (mean age of 34.88 years); 80% were women, 58% had a Bachelor’s degree, and had 5-30 years of nursing practice (X̄ =11.94;±5.92). The vast majority of nurses (90%) reported complying with the existing recommendations on hand hygiene in pre-established moments. However, none of the nurses were able to identify all the moments for hand hygiene using water and soap or alcohol-based handrub.
Conclusion:
This study shows that continuous training, adequate materials/structures in the units, and redesigned administration/supervision practices are determining factors to achieve higher levels of adherence to hand hygiene among nurses, as well as increased quality and safety in care delivery, which is a current collective health challenge.

Objective:
To understand the care of elderly men with their own health.
Method:
A qualitative study with the participation of ten elderly men, through responses to the semi-structured interview guided by the “Tell me about your experiences of care with your health”, carried out in a basic health unit, during the period of October-December 2014. The speeches, after being transcribed were submitted to content analysis.
Results:
The ten interviewees were retired and had an average age of 67.3 years. From the analysis of the data, two categories have emerged: Elderly health care ways and health service as a supporter in the care (less) of the elderly, which revealed the restriction of health care to the triad: medicines, consultation to professionals and exams.
Final considerations:
Institutional and sociocultural barriers that need to be overcome so that the male population can be consolidated, guaranteeing care of their peculiarities, encouraging active behaviors for self-care.

Objective:
to understand the meaning of nursing care in primary health care from the perspective of Chilean nurses.
Method:
this was a qualitative study based on the social phenomenology of Alfred Schutz. Data was collected between January and April 2013, through interviews with 13 primary health care nurses in Chile.
Results:
the nurses perceived primary care as a gratifying experience, considering it an encounter of subjectivities. However, they felt burdened with multiple functions and by the hierarchical pressure to achieve targets. They strived to implement innovative care, expressed by the desire to go beyond traditional care practices, and improve the efficiency of management at the various levels of health care.
Conclusion:
it is important to discuss the results of the present study in the context of health care and especially nursing education, with the goal of better preparing nurses who will deliver care at the primary health care level.

Objective:
To analyze information on resource allocation in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, published in indexed scientific journals, from December 2019 to March 2020.
Methods:
This is an integrative literature review, which took place in March 2020. All databases were investigated and studies were found only in MEDLINE. After applying the established criteria, six articles were selected.
Results:
It was evident that the allocation of resources is carried out as the demands emerge. The fragility in presenting scientific-methodological evidence that can guide decision makers for assertive allocation of available resources is highlighted. The results showed that studies on this subject are incipient and need to be expanded.
Final considerations:
The need for health organizations and area authorities to be better prepared for the proper use of available resources, with allocation based on scientific evidence and maximization of resources is indicated.

Objective:
Reflect on the evolution of pediatric nursing care from the perspective of emotions, from the conceptions of Florence Nightingale to the present.
Method:
Reflective study based on theoretical and experiential aspects of emotional care in pediatric nursing.
Results:
From Nightingale, there were many definitions regarding the nursing care in an integrative and humanist logic; and with certain bond to emotional dimension. That time, nursing care was based on the religious conceptions of charity and love of our neighbor and, despite the conceptualization that shapes nursing science today, such conceptions have not ceased to be its attribute, mainly in the care of pediatric nurses.
Final considerations:
In pediatric nursing, nurture care with affection and facilitate emotions management in each interaction nurse-child-family is crucial for caring. This emotional care should evolve into a competence that recognizes the expertise and merit of professional action.
