Views0Objective:
the objective was to assess the level of physical activity (LPA) and the quality of life QL of the professionals who work in ICU.
Method:
this was a cross-sectional study carried out in Adult ICUs. LPA was assessed by the International Questionnarie of Physical Activity – short form (IQPA-SF) and the QL by the Medical Outcomes Study 36 (SF-36) questionnaire.
Results:
it was classified active 50.89% out of a total of 59 professionals. Nursing technicians were considered the most active with 60.6%. The QL of the professionals who were considered active were better when compared to inactives, with statistical differences to the category of physical aspects limitation, social aspects and mental health. The working hours were higher than recommend, the physicians were higher than the physical therapist, nurses and technicians nurses (p = 0.046).
Conclusion:
physically active professionals who work in ICU had higher quality of life probably why have lower hours of work and consequently more free time to engage in physical activity.

Views0ABSTRACT
Objectives:
to summarize historical aspects related to perioperative nursing education in Brazil and to outline future perspectives.
Methods:
a descriptive-reflexive essay about the historical process of Brazilian perioperative teaching at undergraduate and graduate levels.
Results:
the reflection addresses the historical axes of perioperative nursing, teaching perioperative nursing, curriculum changes, graduate studies and relationship with the perioperative period and trends in perioperative nursing education. Curriculum changes reduced time available for teaching and learning, with a focus on the perioperative period, and diluted contents of surgical nursing in other subjects, which could cause irreversible losses for generalist nurses’ training.
Final Considerations:
when reviewing historical aspects of national nursing curricula, it was found that the nomenclature perioperative nursing was never used in the curriculum, however, the surgical area has always been contemplated in undergraduate and graduate studies. Future trends indicate the need to integrate themes and prepare professionals with perspectives focused on global health and technology.

Objective:
to understand the meanings of being a trans or transvestite woman in the care provided by Unified Health System health professionals.
Methods:
qualitative research, guided by Heidegger’s phenomenology, with 10 trans or transvestitewomen residing and using the Unified Health System in a municipality in Minas Gerais. Fieldwork was carried out by interviews.
Results:
trans or transvestitewomen reproduce the social patterns constructed and accepted by the female, with the search for hormonization being common, and, when it is difficult to obtain a prescription, they resort to self-medication. Social name use and acceptance by health professionals promote recognition. Trans or transvestitewomen experience prejudice on a daily basis, not only by professionals, but also because of the assumption of diagnoses by other users.
Final considerations:
transphobia promotes withdrawal from health services, due to fear, shame, knowledge about professionals’ unpreparedness, triggering illness, social exclusion and violence.
