Objective:
to identify nursing diagnoses in intensive care unit (ICU) patients by means of a cross-mapping of terms contained in nursing records with the NANDA-I taxonomy.
Method:
an exploratory, descriptive study with a retrospective analysis of nursing records in 256 medical records of patients that were hospitalized in the general ICU of a hospital in the western border of the state of Rio Grande do Sul. Terms indicating conditions demanding nursing interventions were collected from the records; cross-mapping of these terms with the NANDA-I taxonomy diagnoses was performed and confirmed in a nursing focus group. Data were analyzed through descriptive statistics.
Results:
a total of 832 terms and expressions referring to 52 different diagnoses in 9 of the 13 domains of the NANDA-I taxonomy were identified.
Conclusion:
the present study enabled the identification of nursing diagnoses in patients hospitalized in ICUs, affecting care management, the training process of experts in the area, and information systems.

Views0ABSTRACT
Objective:
to identify the average direct cost (ADC) on the direct labor (DL) for nurses and the consumption of materials and solutions used in performing dressings for pressure ulcers (PU) in hospitalized patients.
Methods:
case study, exploratory and descriptive case conducted in a teaching hospital. For six months, 228 dressings were performed for the treatment of PU patients. We calculated the cost by multiplying the time spent by nurses by the DL unit cost, adding to the cost of materials and solutions consumed.
Results:
the dressings ADC of PU corresponds to US$ 19.18 (PUs-category I); US$ 6.50 (PUs-category II); US$ 12.34 (PUs-category III); US$ 5.84 (PUs-category IV); US$ 9.52 (PUs-unclassifiable) and US$ 3.76 (PU suspected deep tissue injury).
Conclusion:
the methodology used can be reproduced in different hospital settings for the development of other studies to expand and complement the knowledge gained.

Views0ABSTRACT
Objective:
to unveil the existential movement of a couple when performing vertical HIV transmission prophylaxis.
Method:
qualitative research, using Martin Heidegger’s phenomenological approach. A phenomenological interview was conducted with 14 participants between December/2011 and February/2012 in the outpatient facilities of an university hospital, Brazil. A comprehensive and interpretative heideggerian analysis was developed.
Results:
the couple understands that they have followed the guidance of the health professionals as indicated. By not being able to breastfeed, the woman did not fail to be a mother, but it was also not a complete experience. The senses of the occupation of the couple-being unfolded to the prophylactic treatment and facticity due to the fact of not breastfeeding.
Conclusion:
we indicate the need to rethink care, proposing a working relationship that transcends the impersonal that dictates about what the couple must deal with, enabling their active participation in care decisions and actions.

Objective:
to investigate the existence of a relationship between attitudinal profiles and the pleasure/suffering dynamic in workers of Mental Health Services.
Method:
a quantitative, descriptive-analytical, correlational and cross-sectional study conducted in 2014. We used three instruments: characterization questionnaire, Opinions on Mental Illness Scale and Pleasure and Suffering Indicators at Work Scale, answered by 80 workers of the Network for Psychosocial Care of Alfenas, state of Minas Gerais, Brazil.
Results:
Authoritarianism proved to be the predominant profile. As for the pleasure/suffering at work, Gratification was considered adequate, and indicators such as Freedom, Wear and Insecurity were considered moderate critical. There were positive correlations between the most favorable attitudes and pleasure indicators at work. The values of both scales showed a relationship with socio-demographic and professional variables.
Conclusion:
the less favorable attitudes are prevalent and, in spite of suffering being present, these professionals feel gratified about their work.

Objective:
To analyze overweight in young adult students from the individual dimension of vulnerability, especially its interpersonal and subjective markers.
Method:
An analytical quantitative study was performed with 560 young adults from 26 schools in a capital city in Northeastern Brazil. After obtaining data to administer specific questionnaires, logistic regression was used to identify markers of individual vulnerability.
Results:
In the bivariate analysis, overweight showed a statistically significant association with self-perception of health, satisfaction with body image and self-perception of overweight, the latter remaining in the final regression model.
Conclusion:
It can be mainly concluded that self-perception of overweight is distorted when compared to one’s actual body weight and, for this reason, young adults are vulnerable to dysfunctional health states. However, it was confirmed that this health condition must be understood in an individual and contextual perspective.

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.

Objectives:
to develop and evaluate the convergence of the instrument for the appearance validity of educational technologies in health.
Methods:
methodological study conducted in two steps. In step 1, the instrument items were developed, with subsequent content validity by nine specialists in the development of educational technologies in health. In step 2, the convergent validity between another instrument and the appearance instrument was performed. Correlation results above r> 0.3 and p <0.05 were considered as plausible convergent validity.
Results:
the ten items of the initial version of the appearance instrument were submitted to content validity that resulted in a final version with 12 items (Content Validity Index = 0.93). The correlation indexes were strong with the objective and appearance domains; moderate with motivation, organization and total; and weak with writing style.
Conclusions:
the appearance instrument demonstrated content validity and convergent validity, in addition to a strong correlation with the other instrument.

Objective:
to analyze burnout, its predictors and association with empathy and self-efficacy among nursing students.
Method:
cross-sectional analytical study with 284 students from five state universities in the state of Parana, Brazil. The instruments applied were: social and academic questionnaire, Maslach Burnout Inventory, Interpersonal Reactivity Index and Occupational Self-Efficacy Scale (Short Form). Spearman’s correlation and univariate and multivariate logistic analysis were used.
Results:
6.0% of the students presented high burnout, 36.3% presented high emotional exhaustion, 37.7% presented high depersonalization and 28.2% presented low personal accomplishment. The burnout predictors were: absence of physical activity; weekly workload >24 hours; low empathic concern. There were negative correlations between empathy (empathic concern and perspective taking) and depersonalization; self-efficacy and emotional exhaustion; and positive correlations between personal accomplishment and empathy and self-efficacy.
Conclusion:
Personal factors and an academic variable were burnout predictors among nursing students. The correlations suggest that self-efficacy and empathy can prevent burnout.
