    ABSTRACT

    Objective:

    to analyze the Developmental Care in nursing care for Newborns in critical Neonatal Intensive Care Units.

    Method:

    a qualitative study with 11 nurses from Neonatal Intensive Care Units of a city in the State of São Paulo countryside, based on the Developmental Care. Data collection was based on non-participant observation, documentary research in medical records and semi-structured interviews. The Symbolic Interactionism was adopted as theoretical framework, and the Bardin Content Analysis, as method of analysis.

    Results:

    nurses have knowledge about Developmental Care; however, there are dissonances with doing them. The analysis is presented from two thematic categories: “Nurses’ performance in the Developmental Care” and “Nurse, Family and Developmental Care”.

    Final considerations:

    it is necessary to encourage reflections on the care of nurses regarding Developmental Care, and to foster sensitivity and perception in relation to the executed and registered.

    Objective:

    To summarize the production of the Professional Master’s Program in Nursing Care Management of the Federal University of Santa Catarina, between 2013 and 2016.

    Method:

    electronic documental research. After data collection, we analyzed the numbers of defenses in relation to what was predicted by the respective public notices; as well as sex, training time and professional area of the authors; scenario, context and research line; general objective, analysis support model, methodological approach, instruments/techniques of data collection, and technique of analysis; and, finally, technological productions.

    Results:

    57 dissertations were found and subjected to analysis. The highest number of defenses took place in 2016, in the public scenario, in a care context, with a qualitative approach and having assistance protocols as a final product.

    Conclusion:

    Although the country has weaknesses in its educational system, results of the post-graduate level stand out through the technological productions of professional master’s studies in nursing.

    ABSTRACT

    Objective:

    to describe the nursing care performed by the nursing team to the person with mental disorder submitted to ECT and to analyze the implications of the Psychiatric Reform in this care.

    Method:

    socio-historical study, which uses the Thematic Oral History method.

    Results:

    the nursing team is present in a continuous way in the monitoring of people submitted to ECT, performing care before, during and after the same, as well as visualizing the evolution of the technique and also of nursing care itself, however, does not recognize the Psychiatric Reform as agent for this change.

    Final considerations:

    the Brazilian Psychiatric Reform triggered a process of humanization of nursing knowledge, influencing the care of the person with mental disorder submitted to ECT, with this, care practices also changed, a law was approved, regulating its practice, and its application was decreasing.

    Objective:

    to grasp the perspective of nurses on health education in the process of caring for people with Diabetes Mellitus in Primary Care.

    Results:

    three categories emerged, which show from the perspective of nurses, the influence of structural and assistance characteristics in the development of educational actions; outcomes of these actions, and possibilities to increase their quality as central to the nursing action.

    Final considerations:

    there are still gaps in the structuring of public health policies, especially in the process of managing and caring for people with diabetes, which limits quantitatively and qualitatively the development of educational actions in Primary Care.

    Nursing professionals’ knowledge regarding the management of waste produced in primary health care

    ABSTRACT

    Objective:

    To evaluate the knowledge of Nursing professionals regarding waste management in primary healthcare services.

    Method:

    Descriptive study with a mixed approach, developed with 42 nursing professionals who worked in basic health units of a capital in the Brazilian Northeast Region. Quantitative variables were analyzed by the SPSS 20.0 program. Reports were processed by the IRaMuTeQ software, analyzed according to the descending hierarchical classification, and grounded on the Collective Subject Discourse.

    Results:

    Low knowledge scores were obtained, associated with specific socioeconomic and training variables. Analysis of collected reports allowed to identify three classes: “Inadequate waste disposal: first and main step”; “Correct disposal improves service quality and prevents diseases”; and “Consequences associated with incorrect disposal”.

    Conclusion:

    The knowledge of professionals falls short of the expectations to adequately manage waste produced in primary health care and is concentrated on the initial steps, mainly the disposal process.

    ABSTRACT

    Objective:

    to investigate the care provided by family female caregivers of elderly dependents who have been monitored by public home care and its social repercussions, discussing the facets between State, society and families.

    Method:

    descriptive cross-sectional study, with 45 caregivers of elderly patients accompanied by Home Care Services. Data were collected by means of a structured script. The discussion was elaborated in light of the works “Cuidado e cuidadoras: as várias faces do trabalho do ‘care'” (Care and female caregivers: the several faces of the care work) and “Gênero e trabalho na França e no Brasil” (Gender and work in France and Brazil).

    Results:

    Most caregivers were women (95%) who performed home care at several places and incorporated hospital equipment into everyday life. They have been caregivers for four and a half years, working 18 hours a day on average; they presented average age of 55 years; 82% were ill, and 43% had no income.

    Conclusion:

    the study demonstrated the relevance of the care of female caregivers to society as well as their invisibility to public health and social policies.

    ABSTRACT

    Objective:

    To describe the evaluation of patients that participated in the National Program for Improving the Access and Quality in Primary Health Care (Programa Nacional de Melhoria do Acesso e da Qualidade na Atenção Básica) for the comprehensive healthcare, the bond and the coordination of care in the country’s macro-regions.

    Method:

    A descriptive, transversal study, from interviews with 65,391 patients of Primary Health Care, in 3,944 municipalities regarding the use of health services.

    Results:

    The professionals seek to solve the patients’ problems in their unit (73.1%) but focused mainly on the scope of the appointment (65.6%) and offering care away from the population’s reality (69.4%). Difficulties in the rescue of clinical history were referred (50.3%) and in the care performed in other health services (29.2%).

    Conclusion:

    The comprehensive health care, the bond and the coordination of care remain challenges to the Primary Health Care in the country, requiring reflections on the implementation of national policies, especially considering the regional diversities in Brazil.

    Role-playing: teaching strategy that encourages reflections on nursing care

    ABSTRACT

    Objective:

    Describe the reflections of nursing students on nursing care through the use of role-playing.

    Method:

    Qualitative research with descriptive-exploratory approach and documentary base. The data were collected from portfolios of 32 students from an undergraduate course in the Southern Brazil. The analysis of the data followed the steps of sorting, classification in structures of relevance, synthesis and interpretation.

    Results:

    Two empirical categories were obtained: (1) Feelings in the act of taking care and receiving care and (2) Reversing roles: benefits to the nurse in the act of caring.

    Final considerations:

    The use of role-playing as a strategy for teaching the theme of care to undergraduate students encouraged reflections about the skills and abilities necessary for the act of taking care and favored the students’ self-perception as nurses, appropriating the essence of their future profession: care.
