Objetivo:
comprender el significado de realizar cuidados de enfermería en la Atención Primaria de Salud desde la perspectiva de las enfermeras chilenas.
Método:
investigación cualitativa con enfoque desde la fenomenología social de Alfred Schütz. La recolección de datos fue realizada entre enero y abril del 2013, a través de entrevista con 13 enfermeras de Atención Primaria en Chile.
Resultados:
las enfermeras perciben el cuidado como una experiencia gratificante considerando un encuentro de subjetividades. Sin embargo, se sienten sobrecargadas por múltiples funciones a realizar y por presiones jerárquicas en el logro de las metas. Aspiran implementar cuidados innovadores manifiestados por el deseo de superar el cuidado tradicional y la eficiencia de la gestión de los diversos niveles de atención de la salud.
Conclusión:
es importante discutir estos resultados en el contexto de la asistencia y especialmente en la formación, con el fin de preparar mejor a las enfermeras que brindarán cuidados en este nivel de atención.

Objective:
To analyze the symbolic effects of the official military uniform of the nurses from Brazilian Army in World War II.
Method:
This research was developed using the historical method, with iconographic sources. The data were discussed based on the concepts of the social world theory, by Pierre Bourdieu.
Results:
The images selected demonstrate the own meaning of the uniforms, evidencing the functions and the social position of those who wear it, being private and obligatory to use it in the military field.
Final considerations:
In the case of the nurses from the Brazilian Expeditionary Force, the appropriation of uniforms promoted the visual communication representing military nurse in the context of war, at the same time it served for distinction purposes in the army, but not necessarily in the nursing field. Symbolically, they remained amongst the walls of the barracks even after the end of the war and, thus, they remained unknown and marked by the symbols of forgetfulness.

Method:
Theoretical reflection on the phenomenon of pregnancy in a woman with heart disease.
Results:
Stages of the investigative movement were evidenced based on the pre-reflection related to the object of study and to the search for the phenomenal meaning, using the existential and analytical Hermeneutics as the approach and resulting in the reach of the phenomenal totality.
Conclusion:
The worldview of the researcher, who considered the subjectivities of the person in a health or disease situation, favored the announcement of the referential by the object of study. Knowledge production in the light of Martin Heidegger’s phenomenology unveiled phenomena lived and experienced in the Health and Nursing field, provided of epistemological rigor that demanded appropriation of concepts inherent to the existential analytics.

Results:
It was found that, depending on the tuberculosis type, its manifestations may vary. The logistic regression model considered only pulmonary tuberculosis due to a number of observations and included female sex (95% CI: 1.4-16.3), weight loss (95% CI: 1.8-26.3), bacilloscopic screening (95% CI: 1.5-16.6) and sputum collected (95% CI: 1.4-19.4) as possible predictors.
Conclusions:
Children and adolescents present different manifestations of the disease depending on the tuberculosis type that affects them. Knowing the most common features of each condition could enhance early diagnosis and, consequently, result in adequate treatment and care.

Objective:
To analyze how nurses consider, in their practice of healthcare, the sociocultural context of women with sexually transmitted infections.
Method:
Qualitative research, carried out in October 2017, with ten nurses working in teams of the Estratégia de Saúde da Família (Family Health Strategy). The data were collected through semi-structured interviews, subsequently transcribed, and submitted to the organization supported by the Discourse of the Collective Subject method and analyzed according to Madeleine Leininger’s transcultural theory.
Results:
Nurses identified the sociocultural aspects of women with sexually transmitted infections and recognized the presence of influencing factors: technological, religious, economic, political, and legal, kinship and social, cultural values, and lifeways.
Final Considerations:
The study found that the provision of care by nurses in Primary Health Care is close to the sociocultural aspects of these women when considering the beliefs and values of each individual, especially regarding the life context and their care experiences.
