Objective:
determine the coordination of Primary Health Care with community resources in the clinical management of tuberculosis.
Method:
descriptive study, of quantitative approach, with participation of one hundred health professionals. Part of a questionnaire was used in evaluating local institutional capacity for the model of chronic conditions care, adapted for tuberculosis care.
Results:
the coordination between health units, individuals with tuberculosis, and community organizations; the partnerships between institutions and local health councils/committees showed limited capacity. On the other hand, the component for the participation of the Community Health Agent presented more favorable capacity.
Conclusion:
the municipality has unfavorable capacity for coordination of health units and the community. It is reinforced the need to promote these coordinations in search of symptomatic cases in the communities, in the directly observed treatment, and in promoting the association between different social actors.

Objective:
To analyze the constituting knowledge of militant nurses in trade associations.
Method:
Historical research, based on the oral history method, with a qualitative approach carried out with 11 nurses who are/were militants for professional issues since the 1980s in the state of Bahia. The data collected through semi-structured interviews were organized in the software n-vivo 10 and analyzed based on dialectical hermeneutics.
Results:
We identified pedagogical, administrative, public health, sociological, and trade union background knowledge as constituent of militant individuals.
Final considerations:
The constituting knowledge of militant nurses are inscribed in the Social Sciences, distanced from biomedical knowledge and power, pointing at ways for structuring nursing curricula. We identified the Brazilian Association of Nursing as a space for political formation.

Objective:
To evaluate the changes in the participation of the family caregiver in the treatment of the hypertensive person with the application of the Educational Technology in Health (ETH).
Method:
Participant research carried out in a Primary Health Care Unit with 11 family caregivers (FC). The ETH was elaborated based on health education and applied in ten meetings between June and August 2016. We organized the results into categories.
Results:
FCs experienced learning experiences through the exchange of information, socialization of experiences, and linkage establishments. The FCs were encouraged to share their doubts and experiences, so that, supported by listening to the professional, they felt welcomed and determined to fulfill their role with hypertensive relatives.
Final considerations:
The changes that have taken place have been highlighted in the learning of FCs and their commitment to family and self-care, as well as to the conviction that the family environment is indicated to make these changes effective.

Objective:
to identify the factors that determine the implementation of educational practices of health promotion and to construct proposals to implement the educational actions of the nurses of the Family Health Units (FHU).
Method:
research-action in which individual interviews and focus group were conducted, with 17 nurses from 12 FHU in the city of Cruzeiro do Sul, Acre state, Brazil. The results were organized by the thematic analysis method.
Results:
the thematic units emerged from the analysis: dichotomy between knowledge and doing in the production of care and health; the nurse’s qualification for educational practices; and conditions favorable to health education practices.
Conclusion:
the thematic analysis showed that the educational practice is hampered by the high demand for care in the unit, lack of physical structure and professional qualification for health education. In the action phase, nurses and local managers agreed on actions to improve the quality of educational practices.

Objective:
To understand the intervening factors in the process of reference and counter-reference of the individual with heart disease in the scenario of high complexity in the health care network.
Method:
Research anchored in the Grounded Theory (Teoria Fundamentada nos Dados). It totaled 21 participants. The data collection scenario was a cardiovascular reference hospital in the south of Brazil and occurred between March and June 2014.
Results:
The intervening factors in the reference process were the difficulty to access the points of the network and telemedicine and the central to manage the flow of patients in the network. In the counter-reference, there was a link with the hospital and the lack of communication among network professionals.
Conclusion:
It reveals the need to reorganize the service flow in HCN, enhancing PHC, expanding the performance of medium complexity and increasing the capacity of high complexity in order to carry out the process of reference and counter-reference.

Objective:
To analyze the content of the nursing diagnosis Ineffective Health Management in hemodialysis patients.
Method:
The Nursing Diagnoses Validation Model by Lopes, Silva and Auraújo was used in this research. A semi-structured questionnaire and evaluated the definition, location, defining characteristics, and related factors of the diagnosis Ineffective Health Management was answered by 22 experts in nursing diagnosis. The analysis was conducted from August 2014 to January 2015.
Results:
Experts considered the proposed definition and the current location in the taxonomy II by the NANDA-I, Domain 1 Health Promotion, Class 2 Health Control, adequate to the diagnosis. The adequacy level adopted at 85% or p > 0.05 were above 10 defining characteristics and 24 related factors. Experts also suggested that one defining characteristic should become a related factor and that three factors should turn into defining characteristics.
Conclusion:
A new proposal was developed for the diagnosis under study after the analysis of experts.

Objectives:
To identify equipment failures during handling by nurses and analyze the conduct of the professionals when these failures occur.
Methods:
Descriptive, exploratory and qualitative study, whose field was the intensive care unit of a public institution, and the participants were day nurses that worked providing direct care to patients. Data were produced in 2014 through systematic observation and interviews and were examined with thick description and content analysis.
Results:
The outcomes evinced the inadequate functioning of infusion bombs, users' errors related to the design of equipment and problems with batteries of artificial fans. These failures related to the management of equipment in the unit.
Final considerations:
It is necessary to strengthen the monitoring systems of safety conditions of equipment in intensive nursing care to prevent incidents.

Objective:
Clinically validate the Nursing Outcome Behavior of falls prevention in hospitalized patients.
Method:
This was a cross-sectional study developed at a public university hospital with a sample of 45 patients. The data collection was performed through the evaluation of four nurses, with a double used the instrument with the constitutive and operational definitions of the indicators and magnitudes of the Fall Prevention Behavior Result, while the other pair did not use such definitions.
Results:
When applying the non-parametric analysis of variance by the Friedman test, ten indicators showed statistical differences between the inferences made by the evaluators for each patient. In relation to the intraclass correlation coefficient, confidence interval and p value assigned to each indicator of the scale, most of the indicators were statistically significant.
Conclusions:
The instrument referring to the Fall Behavior Outcome Behavior was considered valid for the study population.
