Objective:
to characterize undergraduate nursing courses according to Enade (National Student Performance Exam) in 2010 and 2013.
Method:
a quantitative documental study was performed and descriptive statistics was used for data organization and analysis.
Results:
Enade report analysis enabled the identification of a reduction in the total number of institutions providing undergraduate nursing courses that passed the evaluation process. The Southeastern, Northeastern and Southern regions of Brazil included the highest numbers of courses assessed and showed the best results in the two evaluation cycles. Additionally, the courses characterized as “without a ranking” were mainly held at private institutions.
Conclusion:
the results of these evaluation cycles are important to support investigative and intervention processes about and with undergraduate nursing courses.

Objective:
to teach airway management with laryngeal mask to nursing students through dialogic lectures along with laboratory activities or exclusively through simulation class.
Method:
randomized controlled trial. Population: eighth semester bachelor’s degree students. Sample: 17 students randomized in the intervention group (IG: simulation class) or control group (CG: dialogic lecture along with laboratory activities). Elaborated and validated instruments: written test, simulation scenario, objective structured clinical examination (checklist). Data collected from workshop. Structured clinical examination in simulation scenario filmed and evaluated by 3 experts, and written tests were applied.
Results:
24.4±4.2 years old. Right answers percentage: CG: pre-test 66±10%; post-test 84±8%. IG: pre-test 65±5%; post-test 86±11%. Scenario: CG 78±5.2%; IG 84±8.9%.
Conclusion:
strategies allowed the development of knowledge, skills and decision-making, which are essential to achieve the scenario objectives. Knowledge was incorporated in airway management with laryngeal mask, shown by the increase in the scenario and written tests scores.

Objective:
to analyze the influence of two São Paulo State experiences in the choice of psychosocial care centers as guiding service providers for the national mental health policy.
Method:
qualitative, exploratory, and descriptive study using oral history as a methodology and theoretical reference.
Results:
eight professionals involved in the deployment of the mental health policy in the cities of Santos and São Paulo between the years 1989 and 1992 were interviewed. Data were analyzed after treating the narratives and grouping the most significant content. Two central themes emerged: development of the local-regional model, and the model’s influence on the choice of the psychosocial care center.
Conclusion:
due to greater insertion of the Santos experience group in the spheres of the federal government, its influence on the choice of the substitute model was higher in ideological terms, whereas the São Paulo model had its influence restricted for political reasons.

Objective:
to identify cardiovascular risk in educators (administrators and teachers) from the South region of Brazil, evaluated before and after intervention with stress management activities and health education.
Method:
longitudinal study of the before and after type. The sample consisted of 49 participants. Variables studied were socio-demographic, morbidity antecedents and lifestyle habits. Measured risk factors for cardiovascular disease were arterial blood pressure, body mass index, ratio of waist to hip size, lipid profile and capillary blood glucose. Stress levels were evaluated using the Lipp Stress Symptoms Inventory (LSSI). The study ran for four months, with weekly meetings of a multidisciplinary team.
Results:
after intervention, the study observed a statistically significant reduction of the investigated variables, except for blood glucose levels in the administrators group.
Conclusion:
stress management activities are potential tools in the identification and control of the risk factors studied, particularly in those involving multi- and trans-disciplinary focus.

Views0ABSTRACT
Objective:
To analyze how social representations of hospital and community care are structured in two groups of nursing students – 1st and 4th years.
Method:
Qualitative research oriented by the Theory of Social Representations. We used a questionnaire with Free Association of Words. Data were analyzed in the Software IRaMuTeQ 0.6 alpha 3.
Results:
We applied the method of Descending Hierarchical Classification and obtained four classes. Class 4 has the largest social representation (30.41%) within the corpus. The two organizational axes are nurse and disease/patient in the central core. On the periphery are the care and help related to the nurse and the treatment and prevention associated with the disease.
Conclusion:
Social representations focus on disease/patient and on the role of nurses in the treatment, prevention, and care. Health promotion and the social determinants of health are absent from the social representations of students.

In Brazil, children and families are still without access to basic rights, thereby increasing their risks of social vulnerability because of the quarantine. The nursing field has an important role in monitoring children and their families, offering guidance in search for solutions and preventing contamination.
Conclusion:
There are still challenges to be overcome by the children and their families in situations of vulnerability against COVID-19.

Objective:
Assess the level of health literacy of adults, with and without hypertension, treated in three basic health units (UBS) in Picos, Piauí.
Methods:
Cross-sectional study conducted with 357 adults. Data were collected using a questionnaire with sociodemographic variables, and literacy was assessed by the Test of Functional Literacy in Adults. Descriptive analysis was performed followed by the association between literacy and exposure variables with Pearson’s chi-squared (X2) test and Mann-Whitney U test.
Results:
Inadequate or marginal health literacy was found in three units investigated (71.5%; 77.8% and 85.2%);. Age and the years of schooling were factors associated with inadequate literacy in adults with hypertension (p<0.0001).
Conclusion:
Inadequate literacy was found in more than 70% of the hypertensive patients investigated. This finding reinforces the need to improve the self-care skills of hypertensive patients, especially the older ones and those with few years of schooling.
