Objetivos:
analisar os fatores associados ao bem-estar materno em situação de parto de puérperas em Minas Gerais.
Métodos:
estudo transversal, aninhado a uma coorte, realizado com puérperas em um município mineiro. Foi adotada a escala Bem-Estar Materno em Situação de Parto 2. Estimaram-se as prevalências do bem-estar materno em situação de parto. A magnitude da associação entre mal-estar materno e práticas assistenciais foi estimada pela Razão de Prevalência (RP), utilizando-se a regressão de Poisson.
Resultados:
participaram 183 puérperas com idade entre 15 e 46 anos, sendo que 26,2%, 27,9% e 45,9% relataram, respectivamente, ótimo, adequado e mal-estar na assistência ao parto. O mal-estar materno foi mais prevalente entre puérperas que passaram por parto cesárea (RP = 1,60) e que não receberam informações sobre amamentação (RP = 1,59).
Conclusões:
observou-se elevada prevalência de mal-estar no parto, associada à realização de cesáreas e à falta de informações sobre amamentação.

Objectives:
to analyze the relationship between the nursing practice environment and hospital sociotechnical complexity as perceived by nurses.
Methods:
a sequential explanatory mixed-methods study was conducted in a hospital in southern Brazil. The Brazilian version of the Practice Environment Scale-Nursing Work Index and the Complexity Characterization Questionnaire were administered to 132 nurses. Subsequently, semi-structured interviews were conducted with 18 participants, and the data were subjected to thematic analysis. Data integration was achieved through a connection approach.
Results:
the nursing practice environment was found to be favorable, except in the subscale concerning Staffing and Resource Adequacy, where complexity was present in the activities. The three emerging categories explained human and technical aspects related to complexity in the practice environment, quality of care, and patient safety. Unexpected variability was inversely correlated with the practice environment.
Conclusions:
the study results indicate a relationship between these constructs, with implications for the quality and the safety of care.

Objective:
to understand the perceptions and expectations of pregnant women about the type of birth.
Method:
this is a qualitative research, based on the assumptions of the Humanization of Obstetric Care. 15 pregnant women were interviewed twice at the beginning and the end of gestation between October 2015 and May 2016. Data were analyzed according to the method of the Discourse of the Collective Subject.
Results:
the discourses were associated with four themes: Advantages of vaginal birth over cesarean section; Fear and unpredictability of vaginal birth; Importance of the doctor in the definition of the type of birth; and Influence of family and friends in choosing the type of birth.
Final considerations:
according to pregnant women, vaginal birth has more benefit compared to cesarean section. However, during gestation and birth, fear of pain and the unexpected, and medical opinions of friends and family against vaginal birth strongly influence the choice of cesarean section.

Objectives:
to identify high-risk areas of leprosy in Brazil from 2001 to 2015.
Methods:
this is an ecological study of spatial analysis based on Brazilian municipalities. Spatial scan statistics were used to identify spatial clustering and measure the relative risk from the annual detection rate of new cases of leprosy. By criterion based on the Gini index, only secondary clusters were considered.
Results:
spatial scan statistics detected 26 clusters, in which the detection rate was 59.19 cases per 100 thousand inhabitants, while in the remainder of the country it was 11.76. Large part of the cluster area is located in the Legal Amazon. These groups included only 21.34% of the total population, but 60.40% of the new cases of the disease.
Conclusions:
Leprosy remains concentrated in some areas, showing the need for control programs to intensify actions in these municipalities.
