Objectives:
to correlate the development of Burnout Syndrome in higher education professors with the following variables: sociodemographic, economic, work, sleep pattern, level of anxiety and quality of life.
Methods:
observational, analytical, cross-sectional study with a quantitative approach. Data collection took place from August to November 2022, with 140 professors from a private higher education institution in the Western Brazilian Amazon.
Results:
professors who carried out activities outside institutional hours and who had sleep duration < 5 hours, presented lower scores in the personal fulfillment dimension of burnout, with (p=0.002) and (p=0.001), respectively. The higher the scores for the physical (p=0.001), psychological (p=0.000) and social relationships (p=0.002) domains of quality of life, the lower the personal fulfillment scores for the syndrome.
Conclusions:
through linear regression, it was evidenced that several variables explain the development of burnout. Institutional and governmental actions can minimize the negative influence of these variables.

Objectives:
to assess the socio-cognitive factors determining adherence to standard precautions by nursing professionals in care practice during the COVID-19 pandemic in Brazil.
Methods:
an analytical cross-sectional study, carried out with 9,039 nursing professionals in Brazil, using an electronic form containing participant sociodemographic, training and work variables, and the Brazilian version of the Standard Precautions Questionnaire. Descriptive and inferential statistics were used using the statistical software R.
Results:
participants recognize standard precautions as effective measures to reduce infections and report intention to perform them. Training regarding standard precautions was evidenced as a facilitator of adherence (4.72; SD: 0.73), and problems related to materials (3.78; SD: 1.45) were a hindrance.
Conclusions:
among the determining factors, facilitating organization presented the highest score, followed by intention to perform. Facilitating and hindering factor identification makes it possible to develop intervention strategies to strengthen patient safety and reduce occupational risks among professionals.

Objectives:
to develop a middle-range theory of the existential dimension of being-in-the-world of chronic kidney disease in the light of humanistic nursing theory.
Methods:
exploratory-descriptive, qualitative, Grounded Theory study, whose guiding question was: what theoretical relationships can be established between clinical practice carried out in the context of renal replacement therapies and the concepts of humanistic nursing theory? Data were collected through semi-structured interviews with nursing staff and chronic kidney disease patients.
Results:
a theory was developed that describes and explains the existential dimension of being-in-the-world of chronic kidney disease, identifying the qualitative evidence present in this context.
Final Considerations:
the theory contributes to clinical nursing practice qualification in nephrology, consolidating nursing as an art and science, because it arises from care practice and research, in addition to rescuing what differentiates it within the health disciplines, which is care par excellence.

Objectives:
to understand the perspective of nurses on the use of telemonitoring in the management of people with type 2 diabetes mellitus and arterial hypertension in primary care.
Methods:
this qualitative research involved sixteen nurses from eight municipalities in Paraná. Data were collected between November 2022 and January 2023 through inperson or remote interviews, which were audio-recorded and subjected to content analysis.
Results:
according to the nurses, telemonitoring enhances users’ knowledge about these conditions, communication and connection with the team, and productivity. However, the lack of electronic resources and equipment, high staff turnover, low user adherence, and the limited availability of professional time present significant challenges.
Final Considerations:
the effective implementation and operation of telemonitoring in the management of people with diabetes and hypertension involve both potential benefits and barriers. It is essential to have the availability of human and technological resources, managerial support, and the commitment of professionals and users.

Objectives:
to investigate the knowledge, attitudes, and practices of nurses regarding blood culture collection.
Methods:
a cross-sectional study was conducted in five Brazilian public hospitals with 112 nurses. Data were collected using an adapted questionnaire and analyzed through descriptive and inferential statistics.
Results:
nurses who did not consider themselves capable of collecting blood cultures had a 72% lower chance of performing the collection at the recommended site and an 83% lower chance of using the same needle for blood inoculation into the vials. Nurses working in the emergency department had a 75% lower chance of knowing the international benchmark for blood culture contamination rates, and those with less than 5 years in the position decreased their chance of accuracy in this matter by 79%.
Conclusions:
there are gaps in the knowledge, attitudes, and practices of nurses regarding blood culture collection. Standardization of the technique, periodic education, supervision and guidance of the collection team, and process auditing are recommended coping strategies.

Objectives:
to analyze the social representations of patients with cancer regarding oncologic surgery.
Methods:
a qualitative study based on Social Representation Theory was conducted with 126 participants between October 2021 and May 2022 in a public hospital in Rio de Janeiro. A characterization questionnaire, free evocations of the inducing term “surgery”, and semi-structured interviews with 60 participants were applied. Data were analyzed using Microsoft Excel® and IRaMuTeQ.
Results:
the central core of the representation is composed of fear, cure, hope, and removing the disease. The analysis of interviews resulted in six classes that highlight the social changes caused by treatment as well as the need for a support network to cope with the surgical process.
Final Considerations:
the representations reflect fear and hope towards the procedure and the desire to remove the disease, thus translating the cure through surgery.

Objective:
to analyze the adhesion of the nursing team to the practice of hands hygiene (HH) and the use of latex gloves in a hemodialysis service.
Method:
this is a descriptive-exploratory study with a quantitative approach, performed between August and October 2016 in a hemodialysis service in the countryside of São Paulo State, Brazil, where the nursing team adhered to HH and the use of gloves. All ethical aspects have been contemplated.
Results:
there were 1090 opportunities for HH, with the adhesion rate being only 16.6%. Regarding the use of gloves, of the 510 opportunities observed, there was correct use in 45%, reuse in 25% and absence of latex gloves in 29% of the time.
Conclusion:
the rate of HH and adherence to gloves is far from ideal, contributing to the increased risk of infection for both the user and the professional.

RESEARCHKnowledge about HIV/AIDS and implications of establishing partnerships among Hornet® users
Revista Brasileira de Enfermagem. 2018;71(4):1949-1955
DOI 10.1590/0034-7167-2017-0409
Views0See moreABSTRACT
Objective:
To evaluate the knowledge of men, who have sex with men who use geolocation-based dating software, about HIV/AIDS, and the implications of establishing partnerships.
Method:
Descriptive study with 30 Hornet® users. The statements generated had statistical treatment in the IRaMuTeQ software, analyzed through the Descending Hierarchical Classification.
Results:
The sexual frequency in the last 30 days was 2.9 partners, of which 2.1 were found by the application, of which 63.3% reported having sex without condoms. There were four classes: Knowledge about HIV/AIDS prevention measures; PrEP/truvada as a measure of HIV/AIDS prevention; Risky behaviors in relation to HIV infection; Establishment of sexual partnerships through applications.
Conclusion:
Hornet users have insufficient knowledge about HIV prevention measures, especially when discarding the male condom. The relationships established through the application are permeated by high individual vulnerability and behaviors that have potential exposure to the risk of HIV infection.
