Objective: To identify the factors associated with the omission of nursing care and patient safety climate.

Method: A cross-sectional study developed at a university hospital in the Brazilian Center-West, between September and December 2022. The MISSCARE-Brazil and the Safety Attitudes Questionnaire were applied to a convenience sample of 164 nursing professionals.

Results: The most omitted care was walking three times a day or as prescribed (66.5%). The overall score of the Safety Attitudes Questionnaire was 63,8 (SD: 12,6). The level of satisfaction (p<0.018) and the perception of professional adequacy (p<0.018) were associated with the omission of nursing care and the patient safety climate.

Conclusion: The study showed a high prevalence of omission of care and unfavorable perception of the patient safety climate, mainly associated with professional adequacy for work performance.

Objective: To develop a health promotion action for Street Clinic workers.

Method: Qualitative research which used the Convergent Care Research methodology. The data collection was conducted through participant observation and convergence groups, from May to October 2021, with 39 workers from six teams of the Street Clinic. Data analysis followed the stages of apprehension, synthesis, theorization, and transfer.

Results: Some integrativepractices such as, stretching, group dynamics, dance, music, massage and cinema were suggested as interventions to be implemented. Given the need, Reichian stretching was developed as an intervention which favored body awareness, promoting the well-being of workers.

Conclusion: The workers presented a conception of health promotion related to access to services and guarantee of rights. Reichian stretching provided a space for care and reflection on caring and respecting limits, favoring the body awareness and promoting relaxation.

Objective: To understand nursing team perceptions about the barriers in pain management in the care of hospitalized children.

Method: Descriptive-exploratory study, with a qualitative approach, conducted with eight nurses and seven nursing technicians. Data were collected at the Universidade de São Paulo University Hospital, between June and September 2022, through individual interviews, analyzed from the perspective of thematic content analysis and in the light of Symbolic Interactionism.

Results: The following categories emerged: 1) Knowledge translation: is pain management actuallyperformed? and 2) Reflecting changes: how to achieve the potential of pain management? Professionals have theoretical knowledge about pain management, however, they listed numerous barriers at each stage, mainly related to institutional routine, and, when reflecting on this context, they indicated the need for an institutional protocol.

Final considerations: Barriers stand out from theoretical knowledge and make pain management for hospitalized children disregarded. Knowing this context is relevant forimplementing change strategies.

Objective: To analyze the association between the provision of tuberculosis treatment actions and the sociodemographic and clinical characteristics of cases during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Method: Cross-sectional study conducted with data from secondary sources of 134 tuberculosis cases that underwent treatment in 2020 in the city of Pelotas, RS, Brazil. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, Chi-square test, and Fisher's exact test.

Results: The least frequently offered actions in the period were: three or more control smear microscopies (12.7%), smear microscopy at the end of treatment (16.7%), chest X-ray at sixth month (48.5%) and sputum culture (49%). The number of medical and nursing consultations did not reach six in 52.9% and 83.3% of cases, respectively. The lower offer of treatment actions was associated with: retreatment (p<0.001); comorbidities (p=0.023); HIV infection (p<0.001); mental disorder (p=0.013); illicit substance use (p=0.018); normal chest X-ray (p=0.024); and special treatment regimen (p=0.009).

Conclusion: After the COVID-19 pandemic, it is essential to invest in cases follow-up, especially those undergoing retreatment, with comorbidities, drug use, normal chest X-ray results, and special treatment regimens.

Objective: To identify the needs and preferences of individuals with type 2 diabetes regarding the functionalities and characteristics for a mobile application to support foot self-care.

Method: Qualitative research with 16 individuals diagnosed with type 2 diabetes recruited during clinical care at a university hospital in Porto, Portugal. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews between March and June 2022 and analyzed using inductive content analysis.

Results: Three categories and nine subcategories were identified. Categories included informational needs, essential functionalities for foot health self-care, and user-relevant experience. The preference for objective, limited data input, flexible, and customizable applications was an important factor influencing technology engagement.

Conclusion: The research highlighted a preference for customizable and flexible applications, aiding nurses in creating solutions that transform care delivery and enhance the quality of life for individuals living with diabetes.

Objective: Perform a cross-cultural adaptation of the Pasero Opioid-induced Sedation Scale to the Brazilian setting.

Method: This is a methodological study using Beaton's framework, which consists in six stages: translation, synthesis of translations, re-translation, expert committee, pre-test, and sending the adapted version of the instrument to the author of the original. The study was carried out from April to December 2021. The research was conducted in a private hospitalin the city of São Paulo, in the adult hospitalization and critical care units. It was approved by the research ethics committee.

Results: After translation, translation synthesis and back-translation steps, the version was evaluated by the expert committee, requiring two rounds to obtain acceptable CVI values above 0.80. In the pre-test phase, the scale was well understood, with a CVI of 0.98.

Conclusion: The scale was adapted for the Brazilian context; however, further studies will be needed to analyze validity and reliability evidence.

Objective: To assess sleep quality and the association of trait and state anxiety in patients with diabetes mellitus.

Method: A cross-sectional, quantitative, and analytical study was conducted between January and April 2022, at the reference center for hypertension and diabetes in Rio Verde, Goiás, with 81 patients. The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index and State-Trait Anxiety Inventory were used for data collection. Analyses included the Student's t-test and multivariate logistic regression analysis.

Results: Of patients, 64.2% reported poor sleep quality. There were significant differences in trait anxiety levels between patients with good and poor sleep quality. Trait anxiety was associated with sleep quality, with an increase in the trait anxiety score increasing the chances of poor sleep quality.

Conclusion: A significant proportion of the sample had poor sleep quality, and trait anxiety was found to be associated with this condition.

Objective: To understand the social representations of people with tuberculosis about the disease and its implications for following treatment.

Method: A descriptive, qualitative study based on the Theory of Social Representations. It was conducted in a municipal health unit in the city of Belém. The participants were people diagnosed with tuberculosis and undergoing directly observed treatment, with the sample size defined by the data saturation technique. Data collection was done through semi-structured interviews. For data analysis it was used thematic content analysis.

Results: The records converged into three categories: Representations of tuberculosis and its impacts on the diagnosis; The faces of treatment: challenges facing follow-up and hope; and Constructions of living with the disease in family and society.

Final considerations: Living with the disease transforms everyday life and relationships. Discrimination and prejudice denote the need to reconfigure such representations for patients to be embraced.

Objective: To identify the prevalence of errors that caused events supposedly attributable to vaccination or immunization.

Method: Systematic literature review with meta-analysis carried out on the Medline, Cochrane Library, Cinahl, Web of Science, Lilacs, Scopus; Embase; Open Grey; Google Scholar; and Grey Lit databases; with studies that presented the prevalence of immunization errors that caused events or that provided data that allowed this indicator to be calculated.

Results: We evaluated 11 articles published between 2010 and 2021, indicating a prevalence of 0.044 errors per 10,000 doses administered (n=762; CI95%: 0.026 - 0.075; I2 = 99%, p < 0.01). The prevalence was higher in children under 5 (0.334 / 10,000 doses; n=14). The predominant events were fever, local pain, edema and redness.

Conclusion: A low prevalence of errors causing events was identified. However, events supposedly attributable to vaccination or immunization can contribute to vaccine hesitancy and, consequently, have an impact on vaccination coverage.

Objective: To analyze the prevalence and factors associated with external causes in elderly people attended by the mobile emergency care service.

Method: Cross-sectional study with 1,972 pre-hospital care records of elderly victims of external causes from 2019 to 2020. A descriptive and bivariate analysis was performed, with a significance level of 5% (p<0.05).

Results: The prevalence of external causes in elderly people attended by the mobile emergency service was 12.2%. Falling was the most frequent occurrence. The associations of the occurrence of falls with age from 90 years old (OR=29.31; p<0.001) and female gender (OR=5.38; p<0.001) stood out, as well as the suspicion of ingestion of alcoholic beverages with occurrence of violence (OR=4.17; p<0.001) and traffic accidents (OR=1.97; p<0.001).

Conclusion: The study showed factors associated with injuries due to external causes in theelderly and may support the formulation of coping strategies for this problem.
