Introduction: The COVID-19 pandemic posed unprecedented challenges to the nursing staff, who were at the forefront of patient care and their families. Exposed to the virus due to strenuous work schedules and other factors, their health was at risk. However, they took proactive self-care actions to counteract these factors, promote selfhealth, and prevent the onset of diseases caused by stressors from the pandemic. These actions, identified in the literature published between 2020-2023, have significantly impacted their individual and collective health. Objective: To identify the self-care strategies implemented by nursing professionals during the COVID-19 pandemic and to analyze them in the light of Giddens’ theoretical proposal. Materials and methods: An integrative literature review under a descriptive scope was conducted between June and September 2023 in the following databases: Pubmed, Scielo, Science Direct, Lilacs, and Google Scholar; also, PRISMA recommendations were taken into account for the organization of the search. Results: 40 articles, published between 2020 and 2023 and representing for different methodological designs, were included in the review. The self-care implemented by nurses during the pandemic was assessed in the light of Giddens’ theoretical proposal under two types of actions: intentional, which account for physical, mental, and emotional health care activities, and deliberate, which focus on care at a social level. Conclusions: The identified self-care actions were oriented toward the promotion of individual and collective health of workers, the reduction of employee turnover, the recognition of stress, and the strengthening of resilience, which can also be implemented nowadays.

Introducción: durante la emergencia por covid-19 el personal de enfermería estuvo presente en el cuidado de los pacientes y sus familias, exponiéndose constantemente al virus debido a los extenuantes horarios de trabajo y a otros factores que llevaron al debilitamiento de su salud. Para contrarrestar dichos factores, se han identificado, en la literatura publicada entre el periodo 2020-2023, diferentes acciones de autocuidado realizadas por los profesionales de enfermería con el fin de promover su salud y prevenir la aparición de enfermedades causadas por estresores propios derivados de la pandemia. Objetivo: identificar las estrategias de autocuidado implementadas por los profesionales de enfermería durante la pandemia covid-19 y analizar las mismas a la luz de la propuesta teórica de Giddens. Materiales y Método: se realizó una revisión integrativa de la literatura con alcance descriptivo entre junio y septiembre de 2023 en las siguientes bases de datos: Pubmed, Scielo, Science Direct, Lilacs y Google Académico; asimismo, se tuvieron en cuenta las recomendaciones PRISMA para la organización de la búsqueda. Resultados: se incluyeron 40 artículos en la revisión, publicados entre 2020 y 2023, con diferentes diseños metodológicos. El autocuidado realizado por los enfermeros durante la pandemia se organizó a la luz de la propuesta teórica de Giddens, mediante dos tipos de acciones: intencionadas, las cuales contienen actividades para el cuidado de la salud física, mental y emocional; y deliberadas, enfocadas al cuidado a nivel social. Conclusión: las acciones de autocuidado identificadas se orientaron a la promoción de la salud individual y colectiva de los trabajadores, la disminución de la deserción laboral, el reconocimiento del estrés y el fortalecimiento de la resiliencia, las cuales también pueden implementarse en la actualidad.

Introduction: Given the doubts relevant to the pregnancy-puerperal period and the importance of the nurse as a health educator, this study aimed to evaluate the impact of a group educational intervention about the pregnancy-puerperal cycle on the knowledge, attitude, and practice of pregnant women. Method: An evaluative study on the knowledge, attitude, and practice with a quantitative approach was carried out with 20 pregnant women in 2019. An instrument was used before and after the educational intervention. Nine meetings were held, and 10 themes were addressed about the pregnancy-puerperal period. The data were analyzed using the Jamovi software. Results: The mean age of women was 26.2 years. An amount of 65% of pregnancies was not planned. There was a significant difference regarding the knowledge about the rights of pregnant women (p=0.023) and the importance of not giving water or tea to the baby (p=0.041). There was a change in the willingness to give birth in a 'lying down' position. There was also a difference in condom use after the intervention (p=0.008). Conclusion: Health professionals can use groups to promote the empowerment of pregnant women and enable them to seek high quality health care. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Background: Long-term involvement and adherence to physical activity are conditioned by motivation. Objectives: To analyze nursing students' motivation to engage in physical activity and to identify the sociodemographic and academic variables that interfere with the practice of physical activity. Methodology: This is a descriptive and analytical study involving 372 nursing students. A sociodemographic characterization questionnaire, the Exercise Motivations Inventory (EMI-2), and the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) were administered. Results: The students' most frequent motives for physical activity were physical fitness, health, and body-related motives. Male students (MR = 227.67) and 2nd and 3rd-year students had the highest physical activity levels. This study also observed that the older the students, the lower the physical activity levels. Conclusion: The psychological motives are directly related to physical activity, whereas health motives are inversely related to physical activity, which suggests that higher psychological motivation and better levels of health lead to higher levels of physical activity.

We aim to report the successful interdisciplinary interventions to promote occupational health with workers from the Hospital Cleaning Service of a Teaching Hospital in southern Brazil. It is an experience report, with a descriptive approach, fundamented on the participatory methodology. Interdisciplinary interventions were developed, using active methodologies, with educational and therapeutic approaches, in 14 open groups, biweekly, between June and December 2019. 52 workers participated. Conversation rounds, board games and the star of life, auriculotherapy sessions and workplace gymnastics were held. The interventions proved to be essential in learning and coping with physical and psychological health problems that workers are exposed to, as well as integration between research, teaching/extension and the community. Auriculotherapy has shown promise for the relief of musculoskeletal pain and health promotion. Workplace gymnastics was enhanced with ergonomic education, with benefits for workers' physical and ergonomic health. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Objective: To know the main reasons that interfere in the adherence of pregnant women, mothers and their companion to the group of pregnant women and pregnant couples, and to identify strategies that can encourage participation in the group. Methods: Qualitative, descriptive and exploratory study. Data collection was performed in April and May 2017, through individual and semi-structured questionnaires with 18 women.The data were analyzed qualitatively according to Minayo's operative proposal. Results: The study identified that the main reasons for not attending to the group are class or work, discomfort caused by pregnancy, illness or medical consultation and the fact that the baby was born before the end of the meetings. Also, it pointed out the need to find strategies that can enhance the participation of pregnant women in the group, such as flexible hours. Conclusion: Although women have identified factors that interfere with their adherence to the group, it contributes significantly to the experience of pregnancy, childbirth and birth. Flexibility in schedules and decentralization of activities are strategies that would enhance participation in activities. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Objective: To evaluate a telephone support programme for mothers who breastfeed for the first 6 months. Methods: A randomised unmasked clinical trial was conducted in 5 urban Primary Care centres that included mothers with healthy newborns who were breastfeeding exclusively (EBF) or partially (PBF). The control group received the usual care. The intervention group also received telephone support for breastfeeding on a weekly basis for the first 2 months and then every 2 weeks until the sixth month. The type of breastfeeding was recorded in the usual check-up visit (1, 2, 4 and 6 months). Results: The study included 193 patients in the intervention group, and 187 in a control group. The greatest increase in the percentage of EBF was observed at 6 months: 21.4% in the control group compared to 30.1% in the intervention group. However, in the adjusted odds ratios analysis, confidence intervals did not show statistical significance. The odds ratio at 1 month, 2 months, 4 months, and 6 months for EBF were 1.45 (0.91–2.31), 1.35 (0.87–2.08), 1.21 (0.80–1.81), and 1.58 (0.99–2.53), respectively. The odds ratio in the same age groups for any type of breastfeeding (EBF + PBF) were 1.65 (0.39–7.00), 2.08 (0.94–4.61), 1.37 (0.79–2.38), and 1.60 (0.98–2.61), respectively. Conclusions: Telephone intervention was not effective enough to generalise it. Resumen: Objetivo: Evaluar un programa de apoyo telefónico a madres que dan lactancia materna los 6 primeros meses. Métodos: Ensayo clínico aleatorizado no enmascarado. Colaboraron 5 centros de salud de medio urbano. Se incluyeron madres con recién nacidos sanos que tomaban lactancia materna exclusiva (LME) o parcial (LMP). El grupo control recibió la atención habitual. El grupo intervención recibió además apoyo telefónico semanal los 2 primeros meses y quincenal hasta el sexto mes. Se valoró el tipo de lactancia en las revisiones habituales (1, 2, 4 y 6 meses). Resultados: Grupo intervención n = 193, grupo control n = 187. La mayor diferencia en porcentaje de LME se apreció a los 6 meses: 21,4% de grupo control frente al 30,1% del grupo intervención. No obstante, en el análisis ajustado de las odds ratio los intervalos de confianza no mostraron significación estadística. Las odds ratio al mes, 2 meses, 4 meses y 6 meses para LME fueron respectivamente: 1,45 (0,91-2,31); 1,35 (0,87-2,08); 1,21 (0,80-1,81) y 1,58 (0,99-2,53). Las odds ratio en los mismos cortes para cualquier tipo de lactancia materna (LME+LMP) fueron: 1,65 (0,39-7,00); 2,08 (0,94-4,61); 1,37 (0,79-2,38) y 1,60 (0,98-2,61). Conclusiones: La intervención telefónica no fue suficientemente efectiva como para generalizarla.

Objective: to report the experience of undergraduate and postgraduate students of the UFSM Nursing Course in order to carry out health promotion actions through playful and pedagogical workshops with healthy elderly people. Methodology: this is an experience report regarding the participation of students in six annual editions (2010 to 2015) of the Extension Project "Acampavida". Each distinct annual theme issue was discussed with the participants. The topics covered issues related to health promotion, and were explored through ludic-pedagogical workshops, which were based on participatory methodology, seeking to promote discussion and reflection among participants. The data reported come from a field diary, where the students recorded the information that surrounded the space of each workshop. Results: The themes explored with the elderly focused on the maintenance of their functional capacities, including issues related to quality of life, sexuality, family relationships, body experience and healthy aging. Conclusion: Participation in the "Acampavida" Project made it possible to expand the possibilities of health promotion strategies to the elderly population, seeking to promote elements that directly or indirectly influence aspects of autonomy and independence that are indispensable for the maintenance of functional capacity. In addition, the activity gave opportunities for the expressiveness of the elderly, which emphasizes the ludic-pedagogical workshops as a strategy to promote health, and consequently subsidize the maintenance of vitality.

The article aimed to describe the men's perception about prostate cancer and related prevention factors. This is a qualitative community trial type study. Three meetings were held in the form of a focus group, composed of 60 men aged over 40 years old, addressing the topic of prostate cancer. In order to analyze the qualitative data, thematic content analysis was performed and the data were organized in the software - Atlas Ti. The results were referenced in the objectives of this study and emphasized into categories. The data showed that there is still a physical and social barrier to overcome with male stigmas, and there is a lack of knowledge about the prevention of this cancer. The increase in the availability of diagnostic tests, agility in care, and differentiated schedules for workers are some of the efficient strategies to attract this population to the prevention of prostate cancer.
