Objective: to identify and analyze the social representations and their dimensions about peripheral venous catheterization and its maintenance for anesthetic-surgical purposes in women undergoing cesarean section. Method: qualitative study of exploratory-descriptive type grounded by the Theory of Social Representations with the participation of 120 women and carried out in a public hospital in the state of Minas Gerais - Brazil, between 2019 and 2020. Evocations collected by interviews with application of the technique of free association of non-hierarchical words with prototypical analysis and by similarity in the EVOC and IRAMUTEQ software. Results: the present social representation addresses feelings in the behavioral dimension of stress, which are related to insecurity and fear of the pain of the needle, the surgical procedure, and the restriction of movements. Conclusion: the research contributes to a reflection on the need to resize nursing care before the difficulties faced by women in the triple experience of stress: cesarean section; venous catheterization; and the difficulty of performing postpartum care.

Objective: To validate the measuring instrument that assesses healthcare residents' use and adherence to personal protective equipment. Method: Methodological study developed in a virtual environment between August 2020 and March 2021 with primary care and hospital residents from the five regions of Brazil. The participants answered the adapted version of the "P.P.E.-PHC" for residents. Confirmatory factor analysis was used to validate the instrument. Results: 227 residents took part, the majority of whom were cis women (82.8%), worked in the Southeast region (58.1%), and in-hospital care (47.6%). The structure in eight domains (cap, gloves, safety behavior, N95 mask, hand hygiene, apron/coat, surgical mask, goggles/face shield) was confirmed. Only two items with a factor load of less than 0.5 were kept. Conclusion: The tool is valid for measuring residents' use of and adherence to personal protective equipment, which helps to guide training and occupational safety. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Introduction: The evaluation of Burnout syndrome among nursing professionals becomes fundamental given its influence on the outcomes for patients, professionals and institutions. The aim of this study was to evaluate the incidence of Burnout among nursing professionals in three public hospitals. Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted with 452 nursing professionals from the State of Minas Gerais, Brazil. A personal and professional information form and the Maslach Burnout Inventory (Human Services Survey) were used. Results: Most participants showed low levels of emotional exhaustion (38.94%), depersonalization (45.80%) and reduced personal accomplishment (39.16%). The variables age (p = 0.010), hospital (p < 0.001), professional bond type (p < 0.001), time spent in hospital (p = 0.010) and in the department (p = 0.017) were related to emotional exhaustion. Gender (p = 0.013) and time spent in hospital (p =0,007) and the department (p = 0,020) were related to depersonalization. Personal accomplishment was better among professionals working on a certified hospital (p<0.001), during the day shift (p = 0.049), who had a fixed position (p<0.001) and who were older (p = 0.023). Discussion: Emotional exhaustion was characterized as fundamental for Burnout to arise among nursing professionals and depersonalization frequently coincide with emotional exhaustion. The exact definition of the participation of each individual in the outcome of care is difficult to delimit as it might influence the perception of professionals regarding personal accomplishment in work. Conclusions: Personal and professional characteristics were associated with Burnout among nursing professionals. It is important to promote actions that can reduce the incidence of Burnout among nursing professionals. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The Master Plan for Primary Health Care in the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil, became the main guideline for the orientation of the health system in care networks. Leadership emerges within this context as a fundamental competence to carry out changes, considering its potential to guide the team work process. The aim of this work was to describe how nurse supervisors define and exercise leadership in primary health care. Materials and Methods: Qualitative research with 16 nurses. Data was collected through semi-structured interviews and data analysis was based on dialectic hermeneutics. Results: The sense nuclei were analyzed in four categories: perception of nurses with relation to the concept of leadership and how they exercise it; the nurse’s leadership in managing primary health care; skills and competencies required to exercise leadership in primary health care; and challenges in the exercise of leadership in primary health care. Discussion: The definitions on leadership were coherent with the way nurses exercise it in the daily work of the teams, with the behavioral theory being prevalent in the discourse. The autocratic and democratic leadership styles were identified with prevalence of the democratic. During the exercise of leadership, there is a need for a permanent search of behaviors, knowledge, and of the development of skills. Conclusions: Nurses highlight leadership as: being in front of the team; leading a group of people; being an example; motivating and encouraging the team. In exercising leadership, it was found that they approached autocratic and democratic styles. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Aim: to evaluate the records of the nursing staff for compliance with the specific legislation in a teaching hospital considering the institution sector, work shift, the professional category and the number of offenses per registration before and after educational intervention. Method: a quasi-experimental study of pre-test and post-test type with a single group. Result: 826 nursing records were evaluated. The largest number of records was made in the Intensive Care Unit by the practical nurses and the night shift. There was an increase in the number of records made by nursing assistants, in male clinical sectors and female surgery sector. There was a reduction in the occurrence of three or more offenses. The intervention was effective for items such as presence of date, time, signature and professional identification stamp. Discussion: incomplete notes can hamper individual care, undermine the continuity of care and imply risks to patient safety. Conclusion: educational interventions can contribute to improvements in nursing records. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Aim: to identify, according to the perception of nursing students, whether the technical visits contribute to training and management in nursing. Method: this is a descriptive study whose data has been obtained in semi-structured interviews with eleven (11) students of the nursing undergraduate course. After transcribing the interviews, we used content analysis. Results: The technical visit is an effective tool in the teaching and learning of the nursing administration process. It assists scholars in the perception of the relation between theory and practice, provides the development of a critical and reflexive view in terms of reality and fosters awareness regarding the relation between management and nursing care/patient care. Conclusion: The technical visit was considered an effective teaching tool to promote an approach to the reality of the labor market by decreasing the distance between theory and practice.
