    ABSTRACT

    Objective:

    To reflect on the repercussions of the Labor Reform on nursing work during the COVID-19 pandemic.

    Methods:

    This is a reflective study based on the legal aspects of the Labor Reform in dialog with scientific productions pertaining to nursing work.

    Results:

    With the rise of the COVID-19 pandemic, the flexibilization of labor is being intensified, legally backed up by the Labor Reform. For nursing workers, the repercussions are felt in the work relationship, during the workday, in the salary, in union action, and in job protection.

    Final considerations:

    It is evident that, after the legislative changes, there’s no certainty that the flexibilization of labor and social security laws will bring favorable results in terms of economic growth, reduction of inequalities, and lower unemployment rates for the nursing workers. Therefore, the political organization of the professional categories is the way to overcome this scenario.

    ABSTRACT

    Objective:

    to analyze the scientific production on health literacy (HL) of adolescents during the COVID-19 pandemic.

    Method:

    an integrative review, in the MEDLINE, LILACS, CINAHL and Web of Science databases, between March 2020 and August 2021. Original articles in English, Spanish and Portuguese were included.

    Results:

    of the 65 studies found in the search, eight were included for analysis, with no publication in Brazil, with five publications in 2021, predominantly in English (n=7) and all classified with level of evidence VI. Of the instruments used, eHealth literacy was the most applied instrument (n=2). Television, family and the internet were identified as the main sources of health information during the pandemic.

    Final considerations:

    the literature has indicated that HL can interfere with adolescents’ decision making and that a low HL can lead to decisions and physical and mental exposure actions of adolescents.

    ABSTRACT

    Objective:

    to identify the frequency of occurrence of sickness absenteeism, according to the profile of Primary Health Care (PHC) professionals, and verify if there was an impact of the pandemic on absence duration and reason.

    Methods:

    a cross-sectional study, from January/2019 to December/2020, with PHC professionals from a municipality in northeastern São Paulo. Descriptive statistics were performed, with frequency calculation.

    Results:

    of the 977 PHC professionals, 633 (64.79%) used a medical certificate to justify their absence from work in 2019, and 837 (85.67%) in 2020. The main reason for leave was diseases of the musculoskeletal system and connective tissue in the two years. The mean duration of leave was 7.33 days (SD=17.33) in 2019 and 9.88 days (SD=16.05) in 2020. Nursing assistants were the ones who took the most leave in both years.

    Conclusions:

    there was an impact of the pandemic on absence duration and reason.

    ABSTRACT

    Objectives:

    to validate and apply a change-of-shift instrument using the SBAR (Situation-Background-Assessment-Recommendation) tool.

    Methods:

    methodological study for the validation of an instrument. It was validated by ten judges from the area of nursing teaching and care and applied in a surgical gastroenterology ward by 11 nursing technicians in February 2019. The analyses considered descriptive statistics.

    Results:

    the judges analyzed the instrument with a content validity index of 91.7% and made suggestions, which led to the second version of the instrument. The participants reported that the predominant modality of shift handover is oral, in the nursing room, lasting six to ten minutes. Most pay attention during shift change, mention that delays and early departures interfere in the activity and believe that the instrument provides the necessary information and is viable.

    Conclusions:

    the instrument built was validated, and its application proved relevant, as it was considered necessary and feasible.

    ABSTRACT

    Objectives:

    to build, validate and verify the reliability of the Scale of knowledge about sexuality of people with spinal cord injury for nursing students.

    Methods:

    a methodological study, following the steps: 1) Construction based on literature review; 2) Validation of the content with calculation of the Content Validity Index and the Modified Kappa Coefficient; 3) Pre-test with Nursing students; and 4) Measurement of reliability by internal consistency (Cronbach’s alpha).

    Results:

    the first version of the instrument presented 13 items. After validation, the items received values above 0.80 and 0.76 for the Content Validity Index and Modified Kappa Coefficient, and it was suggested to separate three items to contemplate gender-specific aspects. After pre-testing, it was recommended that the writing of two items be revised. The final scale, with 16 items, showed Cronbach’s alpha equal to 0.93.

    Conclusions:

    the constructed scale presented valid content and proved to be reliable for application with nursing students.

    ABSTRACT

    Objectives:

    to analyze the temporal trend of accidents due to percutaneous exposure in a public hospital in Brazil, between 2007 and 2019, according to sociodemographic and professional characteristics.

    Methods:

    analysis of time series of accidents due to percutaneous exposure that occurred in health workers. Sociodemographic and professional variables, accident profile, post-accident behavior and accident incidence rates were evaluated. The Prais Winsten regression was used for trend analysis and calculation of the annual percentage change, with a significance level of 5%.

    Results:

    761 occupational accidents were recorded. There was a downward trend in the rate of percutaneous injuries among female workers (-0.012%; p=0.009), who had secondary education (-0.011%; p=0.035) and among all health professional categories (-0.010%; p =0.019). There was an increasing trend (0.018%; p= 0.050) among workers with ≥ 61 months of professional experience.

    Conclusions:

    the analysis showed a decreasing incidence of percutaneous accidents, which can be explained by multiple factors.

    ABSTRACT

    Objectives:

    to assess quality of life (QoL) and satisfaction with life (SWL) indices and verify whether the frequency of religious and spiritual experiences is associated with QoL and SWL in hospitalized octogenarians.

    Method:

    this is a cross-sectional study, with 128 octogenarians. World Health Organization QoL instruments and Scales applied: Daily Spiritual Experience (DSES) and Satisfaction With Life (SWLS).

    Results:

    more committed domains related to QoL and SWL: autonomy and physical capacity. The higher the score in DSES, the higher the scores in the psychological domains and past, present, and future QoL activities. The higher the score in DSES, the higher the score in the social involvement aspect.

    Conclusion:

    the results of this study showed that the higher frequency of religious and spiritual experiences of hospitalized elderly people was associated with better QoL and SWL. It is emphasized that religious and spiritual experiences should be explored in the hospital therapeutic context.

    ABSTRACT

    Objectives:

    to understand how the dramatic therapeutic play session occurs within the care of hospitalized children.

    Methods:

    qualitative multiple case study, using theoretical references, such as symbolic interactionism and Vygotsky’s theory of symbolic play. Twenty play sessions performed with six children from 3 to 10 years old were analyzed, each corresponding to one case.

    Results:

    these sessions demonstrated that a dramatic therapeutic play session is a process of four interdependent and complementary steps: bonding, exploring, dramatizing, and play cessation. They also revealed the imaginary situations externalized by the child, the importance of the exploration step for which they manage the imaginary situation and catharsis, and how her higher psychological faculties are articulated during this process.

    Final Considerations:

    the results contribute to the understanding of the conduct and analysis of the dramatic therapeutic play session, reinforcing the importance of its use in pediatric nursing care practice.
