Objective: To validate the content of the tool Event History Calendar Adolescent Mother: strengthening self-care and child care.

Method: Methodological study using the Delphi technique, conducted in two rounds, involving 37 nursing specialists. In data collection, from December/2019 to August/2020, a semi-structured questionnaire composed of 47 items related to the two dimensions of the tool: Self-care and Child Care was used. The Content Validity Index ≥ 0.80 was used to assess agreement among the experts. Qualitative elements were analyzed for clarity and comprehensiveness of content.

Results: In the first round, 46 items showed Content Validity Index ≥ 0.80. The qualitative elements pointed out more clarity for the adolescent audience. After the changes, the tool presented 30 items. In the second round, the 30 items evaluated achieved Content Validity Index ≥ 0.80. The qualitative considerations were translated into modifications in the content and sequence in the final version of the tool.

Conclusion: The validated tool obtained adequate evaluation of the items of each dimension, related to adolescent mother self-care and child care, with a high degree of comprehensibility.

Objective: To know the experience of health care professionals about telemedicine in a supplementary health service.

Method: This is a qualitative study carried out in a health clinic in the city of São Paulo with 12 participants selected through intentional sampling. Data collection took place through semi-structured interviews and data processing followed the methodological framework of Bardin content analysis.

Results: The speeches that emerged addressed telemedicine in the context of professional training, the care modalities carried out through digital technologies, the benefits and challenges identified in the practice of telemedicine for work and care processes.

Conclusion: The need for public policies and training was identified, aimed at improving understanding of digital health, its modalities and potential in care, teaching and research environments and in health organizations, aligned with training for the use of telemedicine as the one that qualifies the care provided by health professionals.

Objective: To analyze the implications of COVID-19 in the monitoring of health and cardiovascular diseases in health services.

Method: This is a descriptive, cross-sectional, survey-type study with 798 adults, selected by snowball on social networks, between June and July 2020. Data were collected in an electronic form validated for this study.

Results: There was a negative impact on monitoring health and cardiovascular diseases with missed appointments and elective exams. Symptoms such as chest pain and hypertensive crisis were neglected due to fear of contagion, lack of knowledge or structural lack of services, in addition to impaired monitoring of chronic conditions.

Conclusion: The severity of results is noted considering the COVID-19 progression and the risk of complications. It is necessary to organize flows and structures compatible with each care profile, in health services, to guarantee care and promote diagnosis and control of chronic conditions in the set of actions to contain pandemics. It is crucial to prioritize primary care in health follow-ups during pandemic periods, as this has a direct impact on the progression of critical conditions at other levels of care.

Objective: To develop and validate an animated infographic about the nursing process in childhood vaccination.

Method: Methodological study for the development and validation of educational technology, an animated infographic, on childhood vaccination. First, contents from the Ministry of Health that should compose the infographic were selected. Then, a script was prepared and a storyboard used to guide the production of the animated infographic. Once finalized, the technology went through the content and appearance validation process with nursing experts in the study area.

Results: Sixty-nine screens of storyboard were done and the infographic lasted five minutes and 52 seconds. Forty-five nurses were selected and, of these, 21 agreed to participate in the study. The infographic was evaluated according to its objectives, structure, presentation, and relevance, resulting in an overall CVI of 97%.

Conclusion: The animated infographic produced was validated by experts and, once adapted following the judges' suggestions, it became a valid educational tool to be used by students and nursing professionals.

Objective: To analyze, in the light of the Social Ecological Theory, the progression of reported cases of HIV during pregnancy in a Brazilian state and their relationship with the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Method: Retrospective study, with a sample consisting of all reports of gestational HIV in the state of Ceará - Brazil from 2017 to 2021, on the IntegraSUS platform. Data collection was carried out in January 2022. The analyzed variables were organized according to the theoretical levels: macrosystem, exosystem, mesosystem, and microsystem.

Results: A total of 1,173 cases of HIV in pregnant women were recorded. When comparing the pre- and post-pandemic period, a reduction in the disease detection rate (from 231 to 122.67 pregnant women) was observed, as well as 1.82 times more chances of women not using antiretrovirals during childbirth after the start of the pandemic. There was a 55% reduction in vaginal births and 39% in cesarean sections among women diagnosed with HIV after the start of the pandemic.

Conclusion: The COVID-19 pandemic had an epidemiological and care impact, leading to a reduction in the number of notifications and in the detection rate of pregnant women living with HIV in the state of Ceará. Therefore, the need to ensure health care coverage is emphasized, with early diagnosis actions, guaranteed treatment, and quality prenatal care.

Objective: The objective of this paper was threefold: To assess risk factors of blood-borne pathogen exposure and viral infection for employees at their workplace, to spot the differences between groups of respondents without exposure and those exposed to blood-borne infections, and to identify main risk predictors.

Method: The Cross-Sectional Study was conducted, surveying 203 employees, at the Institute for Emergency Medical Services in Serbia, which were eligible to enter the study and surveyed by Previously Developed Questionnaire.

Results: A total of 97.60% of respondents have perceived risk at their workplace, but there were low numbers of HIV, HbcAg, and Anti-HCV testing and poor percent of vaccination for hepatitis B. There were no statistically significant differences between spotted groups of respondents in their attitudes. Three variables were predictors: accidental usedneedle stick injuries (OR = 90.34; 95% CI, 8.79-928.03), contact with the blood of patientsthrough the skin (OR = 176.94; 95% CI, 24.95-1254.61), and the years of service (OR = 0.92; 95% CI, 0.86-1.00).

Conclusion: The significance of this study is that it points to a double risk, because not only health workers are endangered, but also citizens who receive first aid.

Objective: To analyze the transition of care from the perspective of cancer patients, in a Southern Brazil hospital, correlating perspectives with sociodemographic and clinical characteristics.

Method: Cross-sectional study using the Care Transitions Measure (CTM) with cancer patients undergoing clinical or surgical treatment following hospital discharge. Data collection was completed by telephone, between June and September 2019. Data analysis was performed using descriptive and inferential statistics.

Results: The average CTM score was 74.1, which was considered satisfactory. The CTM factors: understanding about medications (83.3) and preparation for self-management (77.7) were deemed satisfactory; while: secured preferences (69.4) and care plan (66.1) were unsatisfactory for an effective and safe care transition. No statistically significant difference was found between sociodemographic variables and the CTM. Among the clinical variables, primary cancer and the secured preferences factor showed a significant difference (p = 0.044).

Conclusion: The transition from hospital care to the community was considered satisfactory in the overall assessment.
