an integrative literature review, for which searches were conducted in the databases LILACS, PubMed/MEDLINE, SciELO, BDENF, and Scopus.
Results:
sixteen articles published between the years 2004-2013 were selected, 68.75% of which were sourced from Brazilian journals and 31.25% from American journals.
Conclusion:
civilian nursing organizations are important and necessary, because they have collaborated decisively in nursing struggles in favor of the working class and society in general, and these contributions influence different axes of professional performance.

Objective:
to evaluate the scientific evidence that is available in the literature on the effects of acupuncture for treating anxiety and on the quality of such studies.
Method:
the study is an integrative review of CINAHL, LILACS, PUBMED-PICO, SciELO, and The Cochrane Library between 2001 and 2014. Keywords anxiety, acupuncture therapy, acupuncture, and anxiety disorders were combined among themselves to ensure a wide search of primary studies.
Results:
among 514 articles, 67 were selected to be fully read and 19 were included. Among these, 11 were found to have strong evidence levels. Among the six articles about randomized clinical studies, five were found to be of reasonable quality. Two studies used acupuncturist nurses to perform their interventions. Its results showed positive and statistically significant effects from using acupuncture for treating subjects with anxiety.
Conclusion:
acupuncture seems to be a promising treatment for anxiety; however, there is a need for improving the methodological quality of the research on this field.

to evaluate national and international literature regarding the use of educational technologies to encourage self care in postpartum women.
Method:
an integrative review of the literature. The articles were collected from the CINAHL, SCOPUS, PubMed, SciELO, LILACS and Cochrane databases; the time period for the articles referred to January/2004 to July/2014; the languages used in the articles were Portuguese, English, Spanish and French; the articles were selected from the following descriptors: postpartum care period, educational technology, nursing and self care. Twenty-seven articles were selected for analysis

Objective:
to analyze the demand for nursing care and the risk of pressure ulcers (PU) of patients with HIV/Aids.
Method:
quantitative survey, carried out from December 2012 to March 2013 in a public hospital of Teresina, state of Piauí, Brazil.
Results:
the sample of 31 patients was predominantly male, mean age 36.6 years, average care demand 49.4%, most showing some risk of developing PU. The variables correlated with PU risk were care demand and clinical outcome (death). Those associated with care demand were age and clinical outcome (death).
Conclusion:
the results showed that patients require moderate nursing care needs and most of them present risk of developing PU.

01-01-2016DOI 10.1590/0034-7167.2016690321
Views0See moreABSTRACT
Objective:
to identify the factors associated with lack of anticipated support for care for community-dwelling older adults.
Method:
this study presents comparison and logistic regression analyses of data from 671 individuals who took part of the multicentric study entitled “Frailty in older Brazilians” – a quantitative, epidemiologic and transversal investigation carried out between 2008 and 2009.
Results:
the subjective evaluation of anticipated support for care for community-dwelling older adults was a good indicator of risk for lack of anticipated support for care in women, older adults who live alone and those with poor self-rated health.
Conclusion:
it is necessary to reflect upon the formal support system currently available for older people in Brazil, considering that those who most frequently presented lack of anticipated support for care are an increasing population. The study also highlights the importance of using subjective methods for the evaluation of the adequacy of older adults’ support network.

Objective:
to understand, from grandmothers’ perspectives, the experience of having a grandchild with cancer.
Method:
qualitative study, guided by philosophical hermeneutics. Eight grandmothers of children who had finished an oncology treatment participated in this study. Data were collected through interviews, which were recorded, transcribed, and analyzed according to the principles of hermeneutics.
Results:
the grandmothers underwent an experience of multiplied, silent, transformative, and permanent suffering. They believe it is their role to be present, but they recognize their adult children’s independence and self-determination. Grandmothers highlighted that their experience has been very little accessed and considered by health care professionals.
Conclusion:
we recommend including grandparents in the context of care and in additional research.
