Objective: To identify, in the scientific literature, the barriers that make it difficult to apply the Safe Childbirth Checklist of the World Health Organization. Methods: An integrative review was conducted from November 2020 to May 2022, using the following data sources: Scopus, MEDLINE®/PubMed®, Web of Science, and CINAHL. This study was conducted according to the recommendations of the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses protocol. Results: The sample consisted of 14 studies published mainly in 2021, when South America predominated as a publishing continent. The English language, methodological studies, and quantitative approaches prevailed. Level IV evidence prevailed in the sample. In the identified studies, there was a strong description of cultural factors, followed by structural factors and factors related to the work process. Conclusion: Cultural (interpersonal relationships, hierarchy of professional classes, and poor communication) and structural (design and fonts used in the checklist) factors, and those related to the work process (such as the checklist implemented in the health service, the manager’s attitude regarding presenting it, and need for educational/training intervention for health professionals) are the main barriers that make it difficult to apply the Safe Childbirth Checklist.

Objective: To describe the process of development of the theory of change for the implementation of Matrix Support in a medium-sized municipality in São Paulo and to reflect on the contributions of this approach to the planning and evaluation of this intervention, considering the potentialities and challenges from its execution remotely. Methods Qualitative study performed through participatory workshops and construction of narratives with workers and managers of the Psychosocial Care Network following the recommendations of a guide for the development of the theory of change in complex interventions. Results: The implementation of Matrix Support configures one of the three distal results that culminate in the possibility of establishing the logic of shared care related to the activation of intersectoral network and the implementation of a Continuing Education Committee. External components that should be guaranteed by the organizational context for the effective achievement of some intermediate and long-term results were also recognized. Conclusion: The development of the theory of change was effective in delimiting objectives and implementation components from the perspective of the actors involved, establishing indicators for its monitoring and evaluation based on context conditions, and enabling the direction of workers’ efforts towards its consolidation.

Objective: To construct and validate with experts the conceptual definitions (CD), operational definitions (OD) and magnitude of the operational definition (MOD) of the 26 outcome indicators of the Nursing Outcomes Classification (NOC), INICIARE-26 instrument components, which measures patients’ dependency on nursing care. Methods: A methodological study, in two stages, between January and July 2022. In the first, CD, OD and MOD were developed based on scientific literature. Semantic and conceptual equivalences were observed, in addition to standardization of the indicators’ textual formulation. In the second, the Delphi method was used for content validity by eight experts who assessed the relevance of the definitions under the following aspects: “not relevant”; “little relevant”; “quite relevant”; “highly relevant”. The Content Validity Index (CVI) was used, with a value greater than 0.78 for agreement analysis. Results The CD CVI was unanimous for 15 indicators; CD were fully consensual for 17 indicators; MOD was obtained a CVI of 1.00 for 13 indicators. The other items had a CVI of 0.88. The items that did not reach 1.00 of agreement were revised, according to experts’ suggestions, with the aim of improving and providing greater clarity for instrument application. Conclusion: The definitions were constructed and, at the time of validity, reached a satisfactory degree of agreement among experts, and some were unanimous.

Abstract Objective: To build and validate an e-book about cardiovascular risk in people living with the human immunodeficiency virus. Methods: Methodological study based on the evaluation research theory with analysis of outcome. It involved technological production comprising the phases of analysis and planning, modeling, implementation, and evaluation. Cardiovascular risk factors and strategies to reduce them were discussed. The e-book was validated with experts from all over the country between October 2017 and August 2018 using the Content Validity Index. Results: As the e-book was written to meet the needs of the population, accessible language was used for an easier understanding of the content. Several aspects of the e-book were evaluated by experts. Afterwards, the most frequent criticisms and/or suggestions were analyzed. A concordance rate of 80.5% was observed after analysis of the global CVI. All items had satisfactory agreement rates, with a CVI of 86.6% for general impression, 96.8% for objective, 92.0% for content and 90.4% for relevance. Conclusion: The e-book was evaluated in several aspects by experts and a global agreement index of 80.5% was found. Suggestions were accepted aiming at ensuring a more complete, cohesive, easy to read and updated material. According to the evaluation between experts, the material proved to be valid for use by people living with HIV in order to understand their cardiovascular risk and to know healthier habits that may help in prevention of cardiovascular diseases.

Objective: To analyze the news published in the Brazilian press about nursing work during the COVID-19 pandemic period, between February 2020 and August 2021. Methods: This is a documentary, descriptive study with a qualitative approach. Elaborated from information collected on news sites, through clipping, following the stages of monitoring, collection, analysis and archiving of mentions of work in nursing made by the Brazilian media. The sample totaled 432 news. Data analysis was performed using the Thematic Content Analysis proposed by Laurence Bardin. Results The year 2020 stood out among the analyzed news (59.96%), whose characters involved were nursing professionals, female (36.57%), technical (38.89%) and higher (38. 43%). There was a predominance of news in the Southeast (45.83%) and Midwest (17.36%) regions. Six categories were identified for data analysis: deaths among workers (40.74%), precarious working conditions (28.94%), vaccination (8.56%), contamination of workers (8.33%), suspected of ethical infraction (8.10%) and COVID-19 cure (5.32%). Conclusion: The COVID-19 pandemic in Brazil brought nursing work and workers to the center of journalistic debate. Death, precarious working conditions and contamination of nursing workers, reported in the press, are related to the precariousness of nursing work in this study. It is conjectured that the journalistic debate on nursing work in the COVID-19 pandemic helped to strengthen political guidelines, such as the one that led to the enactment of Law 14,434/2022, which deals with the national wage floor for these professionals.

Objective: To investigate the correlation between nursing and medical students’ engagement and quality of life at a private college. Methods: This is an observational, analytical, cross-sectional study with a quantitative approach, carried out with 219 undergraduate students, using three self-administered questionnaires: one with sociodemographic data; Study & Well-being Survey, to assess student engagement; and the Medical Outcomes Study 36 – Item Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36), to assess quality of life. Data normality was tested using the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, and for inferential analysis, within expected standards, Spearman’s correlation test between the engagement dimensions and the quality of life domains was used. Results: A total of 171 medical students and 48 nursing students participated, 160 (73.06%) female and 59 (26.94%) male. Engagement had a mean score of 3.57 ± 0.92 and quality of life with an average greater than 50. The correlation between engagement and quality of life was considered moderate between the vigor dimension and the energy/vitality domain (r=0.505), and health mental (r=0.332) and between dedication (r=0.400) and absorption (r=0.313) dimensions with the energy/vitality domain. Conclusion: The correlation was weak between most nursing and medical students’ quality of life and engagement domains.

Abstract Objective To evaluate the prevalence of risk for Burnout Syndrome among health professionals in areas of care for patients with COVID-19, as well as to verify possible associations of the syndrome with the perceived social support and food insecurity of these workers. Methods: Analytical cross-sectional study, with workers from intensive care units (ICU) and wards caring for patients with COVID-19, in a university hospital. Data collection was carried out from September to October 2021, using the instruments: Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI-HSS), Multidimensional Perceived Social Support Scale and Food Insecurity Experience Scale (FIES). Statistical analysis used Poisson regression models and multiple Poisson regression, considering statistically significant differences and associations if p<0.05. Results: A total of 75 workers from three wards (48%) and from one ICU (52%) participated in the survey, and the professionals are mostly female (89.3%), trained as health care technicians (66.7%). Regarding the risk of Burnout Syndrome, 26.7% of the workers had scores for at least one dimension of the scale, mainly referring to high emotional exhaustion (20%). There was a positive association between the risk of developing Burnout Syndrome and food insecurity (PR = 1.11; 95%CI = (1.04; 1.18); p = 0.002). The number of children was significantly negatively associated with the incidence of Burnout Syndrome (PR = 0.90; 95%CI = (0.83; 0.97); p = 0.008). Conclusion: Positive associations were observed with a higher risk of BS in professionals with food insecurity and also that the number of children acts as a protective factor against the risk of Burnout Syndrome, which may be directly related to perceived social support.

Objective: To analyze the acceptability of people undergoing unscheduled cardiac catheterization about a complex nursing intervention (CI) to reduce anxiety. Methods: This is a qualitative and evaluative study of the acceptability of 15 participants who underwent cardiac catheterization regarding a nursing CI. Data collection was carried out in the emergency unit of a highly complex hospital in the city of São Paulo, specialized in cardiology. Participants had a diagnosis of Acute Coronary Syndrome and received the CI, consisting of a musical and educational component, called Education and Music Intervention to Reduce Anxiety (EMIRA). Data were collected from September to October 2021, and participants underwent a semi-structured interview. The guiding questions of the interview were elaborated based on Kazdin. The interviews were recorded and transcribed for Bardin’s content analysis. To analyze EMIRA participants’ participants, Representations of Everyday Life’s theoretical contribution was used. Results: Acceptability analysis in relation to EMIRA allowed identifying three categories: EMIRA complex intervention: new experience that helps to understand cardiac catheterization; Complex EMIRA intervention: an experience that generates satisfaction; and EMIRA complex intervention: an anxiety-relieving experience. Participants reported feelings of calm, relief, tranquility, satisfaction, and recommended using EMIRA. Conclusion: Participants’ experience with EMIRA was positive, suggesting good acceptability of CI by people awaiting unscheduled catheterization in the emergency unit.

Objective: To carry out content validity of the statements of International Classification for Nursing Practice (ICNP®) terminology subset diagnoses, outcomes and nursing interventions for people with chronic kidney disease on conservative treatment. Methods: A methodological study, which followed the Brazilian method guidelines, with content validity conducted by the Delphi technique and carried out with 67 expert nurses. A total of 123 nursing diagnosis/outcome statements and 215 nursing intervention statements, distributed by Callista Roy’s adaptation model of nursing modes were assessed. To assess the degree of agreement regarding the meaning and clinical use among experts, the Content Validity Index (CVI) was used, accepting statements that presented an index ≥ 0.80. Results After two Delphi rounds, 117 diagnoses/outcomes and 199 nursing interventions were validated. Of the diagnoses, 70 (60%) were classified in Physiological Mode, 19 (16%) in Self-Concept Mode, 17 (14%) in Real-Life Function Mode, and 11 (10%) in Callista Roy’s Interdependence Mode. Among the most prevalent diagnostic statements were: “Altered Blood Pressure”, “Peripheral Oedema”, “Fluid Retention”, “Lack of Knowledge of Dietary Regime”, “Impaired Adaptation”, “Self-Care Deficit” and “Impaired Access to Treatment”. Valid nursing interventions underwent wording changes. Conclusion: The development of an ICNP® terminology subset according to the adopted theoretical model proved to be valid in terms of content for the care of people with chronic kidney disease undergoing conservative treatment through clear and directive care plans.

Objective: To map and synthesize the available scientific evidence on violence against nursing workers during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods: Scoping review prepared in accordance with recommendations of the Joanna Briggs Institute, carried out in the following databases; National Library of Medicine, Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature, Web of Science, Excerpa Medica DataBASE, PsycINFO – APA PsycNET and Latin-American and Caribbean Health Sciences Literature. Studies addressing the theme of work-related violence against nursing workers during the COVID-19 pandemic, published in Portuguese, Spanish, or English, from 2020 and available in full were included. Partial research reports, editorials, response letters and abstracts of annals were excluded. Descriptive analysis was performed. Results: Nine out of a total of 56 publications met the selection criteria, seven with high methodological quality and two with moderate quality. The phenomenon occurred in different countries around the world, the usual victims were nursing workers working on the front line, with less training time, and it was perpetrated by different actors. Psychosocial damage to workers and risks to patients were found. Conclusion: Nursing workers suffered a high incidence of violence during the pandemic. The consequences of this violence were harmful to health, leading to the desire to leave the profession or affecting the physical or mental health of victims. The implementation of public policies and administrative strategies to reduce violence against this population in pandemic conditions were suggested as prevention and control measures.
