Objective:
To assess the development and implementation of permanent education action.
Method:
Quantitative-qualitative research based on action research in three phases (diagnosis of reality, implementation of activity and evaluation), performed with health professionals and managers of basic health units. The evaluation was on the perception of changes immediately following the activity and after 120 days.
Results:
In the first phase, 110 professionals took part, 36.4% of whom indicated the existence of groups for older adults at work. In the second phase, 98 professionals participated, pointing out interferences of the group in the life of older adults, items of importance and facilitation in forming groups and developing reality-based activities. The third phase showed, in the quantitative analysis, positive impact of the training, and in the qualitative analysis, reassessment of groups, greater knowledge and confidence in managing groups and increased respect for older adults.
Final considerations:
Permanent education opens pathways for the construction of differentiated care for older adults based on respect and health promotion.

Objective:
To analyze the police reports filed by older adults who suffered abuse in order to identify the socio-demographic characteristics of victims and aggressors, type of violence, location, as well as to compare rates in three Brazilian cities in the period from 2009 to 2013.
Method:
Ecological study, in which 2,612 police reports registered in Police Stations were analyzed. An instrument was used to obtain data from the victim, the aggressor and the type of violence.
Results:
Psychological abuse predominated and most cases occurred in the older adults own home. In the cities of Ribeirão Preto and João Pessoa, the older adults presented similar rates for both gender. Regarding the standardized rates, in João Pessoa, there was a rise of this type of abuse in the two first years, and later there was a certain stability. In the city of Teresina, there was an increase, also observed in the city of Ribeirão Preto in the three first years, followed by a decrease.
Conclusion:
Older adults abuse is a cultural phenomenon difficult to be reported by them, since it occurs in the family context.

Objective:
To describe the process of manufacturing and validation of an educational booklet for HIV/Aids prevention in older adults
Methods:
Methodological study developed in two phases – manufacturing of the booklet and validation of the educational material by judges. The manufacturing process involved a situational diagnosis with older adults, and its result indicated gaps in the knowledge with respect to HIV/Aids. The validation process was performed by nine judges, selected by convenience. It was considered an agreement index of at least 0.80, analyzed through the content validity index.
Results:
We opted for a dialogue between two older adults divided into three categories: myths and taboos; ignorance; and prevention and importance of diagnosis. The average of the items was 0.90. The suggestions made by the judges were observed and modified for the final version.
Conclusion:
The material had relevant content for the judges, in addition to being able to be used by health professionals in the education and clarification of issues on the subject.

Objective:
To analyze the association between filial responsibility and the overload of the children when caring for their older parents.
Method:
Cross-sectional study with 100 caregiver children of older adults. Filial liability was assessed by the attitudes of the responsible child (scale of expectation and filial duty) and by care behaviors (assistance in activities of daily living, emotional and financial support, and keeping company). The overload was assessed by the Caregiver Burden Inventory. To assess the associations, the correlation coefficients of Pearson and Spearman, Kruskal-Wallis Test, and Mann-Whitney were employed. Variables that presented p-value<0.20 in the bivariate analysis were inserted in a multivariate linear regression model.
Results:
The factors associated with overload were: formal employment (p=0.002), feelings regarding family life (p<0.001), financial support (p=0.027), and assistance with Activities of Daily Living (ADLs) (p<0.001).
Conclusion:
Children who were more involved with the ADLs and provided financial support showed higher levels of overload.

Objective:
to associate the presence and grading of adverse dermatoneurological events (peripheral neuropathy and hand-foot syndrome) and the interference in the activities of daily living of patients with gastrointestinal neoplasms undergoing systemic antineoplastic treatment.
Method:
this is a longitudinal, prospective study, using instruments to assess hand-foot syndrome and peripheral neuropathy.
Results:
there were 36 patients: 66.7% diagnosed with colon cancer and 83.2% on combination therapy. From cycle 5 onwards, all of them had hand-foot syndrome, with a majority of grade 1, unrelated to interference in activities of daily living. Regarding peripheral neuropathy, there was a moderate to strong correlation from cycle 1 of treatment.
Conclusion:
peripheral neuropathy negatively affects activities of daily living. The monitoring of dermatoneurological events by oncology nurses contributes to the clinical practice of nursing and subsidizes the development of advanced practice in the country.

Objectives:
to understand the meanings attributed by women to the diagnosis and treatment of syphilis and congenital syphilis, and to outpatient follow-up of their children.
Methods:
this is a qualitative study conducted with 30 mothers of children with congenital syphilis using audio-recorded semi-structured interviews, which were submitted to inductive thematic analysis. Symbolic interactionism was the theoretical framework considered in this study.
Results:
two themes were identified, showing the maternal diagnosis involved shock, guilt, and fear of social exclusion, in addition to frustration due to failure to prevent vertical transmission. Moreover, the painful clinical procedures for the child’s treatment enhanced maternal guilt, and the symbolic process of re-signification of the disease/treatment took place with the child’s healing.
Final Considerations:
understanding the intersubjective aspects involved in this experience helps nurses rethink their care practice and contributes to their critical role in the context of syphilis.

Objective:
To evaluate the functional capacity of long-lived older adults from Amazonas.
Method:
A cross-sectional epidemiological study was carried out with 116 older adults aged 80 years or older, registered in a primary health care unit in Belém, in the state of Pará, Brazil. The Functional Independence Measure (FIM) was used for functional capacity assessment and the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) for cognitive screening. Univariate and bivariate analyses were carried out, in addition to the Pearson’s chi-square test.
Results:
The older adults presented modified independence in the self-care, sphincter control and locomotion dimensions, and needed supervision for mobility/transfers. In mobility, men presented complete independence. Modified independence was found in the 80-89 age group. It was observed that, the lower the education level, the worse the cognitive performance.
Conclusion:
In spite of their advanced age, long-lived older adults still present functional capacity for activities of daily living, even though they required supervision for high energy expenditure tasks, such as mobility and transfers.

Objectives:
to analyze the educational demands of family members of children with special health care needs in the transition from hospital to home
Methods:
qualitative research conducted between February and June 2018, using the handbook on creativity and sensitivity dynamics, from the sensitive creative method; the participants were nine family caregivers of children admitted to a public hospital in Rio de Janeiro; the data were subjected to French discourse analysis
Results:
the educational demands were clinical, centered on the categories complex and continuous care, technological care, modified habits, medication, development and mixed care, and social, related to the supplies and rights of children

Objective:
to construct the conceptual and operational definitions of the defining and conceptual characteristics of the related factors of the nursing diagnosis (ND) hypothermia (00006) of NANDA-I, 2015-2017, in adult patients in the perioperative period.
Method:
an integrative literature review in the Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System Online, Cochrane Library, The Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature and in Latin & American Literature in Health Sciences databases.
Results:
2,041 articles were found, 95 selected for reading in full and 24 used to construct such definitions. Gay literature was also explored to ensure robustness to the elucidation of topics not found in articles.
Conclusion:
such definitions will assist nurses in surgical practice in information collection, in accurate determination of the referred ND, in teaching and in future research related to this theme, as well as in the next validation stages of such ND to the referred population.

Objective:
To analyze the needs and facilitating and hindering elements related to transitional rehabilitation care.
Methods:
Integrative literature review oriented toward answering the question “What nursing interventions guarantee transitional rehabilitation care to dependent adult or elderly people when they return home after hospitalization?”.
Results:
The patients did not participate much in the planning of hospital discharge and decision-making when they had to return home. Informal caretakers reported that professionals showed detachment during hospitalization and delayed guiding instructions. Health professionals mentioned lack of time to offer this care modality as a difficulty.
Final considerations:
Ensuring training, follow-up, and coordination between care levels is essential. Care integration can reduce hospital stay and the impact of post-discharge complications. Transitional care contributes to a sustainable health system, higher care quality, and client satisfaction.
