The best evaluated safety culture dimension was ‘Following patient care’, followed by ‘Teamwork’. ‘Open communication’ and ‘Communication about errors’ were more positive among administrative professionals when compared to care professionals. The worst rated dimension was ‘Pressure and pace of work’. The patient safety culture among primary care professionals was considered weak. Conclusion: the need for continuing health education strategies to strengthen the safety culture and consequently reduce the risk of errors in care is elucidated.</p>2025-07-24T00:00:00-03:00Copyright (c) 2025 Revista de Pesquisa Cuidado é Fundamental Onlinehttps://seer.unirio.br/cuidadofundamental/article/view/13818Educational booklet on breastfeeding for health professionals: creation and validation / Cartilha educativa sobre aleitamento materno para profissionais da saúde: criação e validação2025-02-26T14:39:13-03:00Rielle Herrera Brandlirielle.28@hotmail.comMichael Vieira do Amarantemichaelamarante@yahoo.com.brLisie Alende Prates lisieprates@unipampa.edu.br<p><strong>Objetivo:</strong><span style="font-weight: 400;"> criar e validar uma cartilha educativa sobre aleitamento materno voltada para profissionais de saúde. </span><strong>Método:</strong><span style="font-weight: 400;"> estudo metodológico realizado entre março e novembro de 2024, a partir de três fases: revisão da literatura, elaboração do material e validação por especialistas. </span><strong>Resultados:</strong><span style="font-weight: 400;"> a cartilha, com 30 páginas em formato A4, abordou temas essenciais sobre aleitamento materno com linguagem científica acessível.

The study participants were community health agents linked to the Basic Health Units of the municipality of Acarape. Data collection took place in three stages: application of a pre-test; implementation of the educational intervention; application of the post-test. The educational intervention consisted of a theoretical-practical class, addressing topics such as definition and examples of obstetric violence, prevention, associated risks, the role of the community health agent in this scenario and the importance of humanized childbirth. The data were analyzed in the Jamovi statistical software using measures of central tendency.</p> <p><strong>Results:</strong> There was an increase in the agents' knowledge about obstetric violence after the intervention, evidenced by comparisons between the pre-test and post-test. The greatest improvements were observed in the identification of specific practices that constitute obstetric violence, such as neglect in care and verbal abuse. In addition, the agents reported a greater perception of the importance of humanized childbirth, and the feeling of safety when dealing with cases of obstetric violence also improved. These advances demonstrate the positive impact of educational workshops on the quality of care provided by professionals, enhancing their role as agents of transformation in communities.</p> <p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>The educational workshop proved to be an effective strategy for training community health agents, contributing to the identification and approach of cases of obstetric violence.</p>2025-08-14T00:00:00-03:00Copyright (c) 2025 Revista de Pesquisa Cuidado é Fundamental Onlinehttps://seer.unirio.br/cuidadofundamental/article/view/14109The Care activities and difficulties faced by Family caregivers of elderly people after stroke2025-07-08T15:19:20-03:00Amanda Lopes Soaressoares.amanda@acad.ufsm.brGiovana Padoin Bruttigiovana.brutti@acad.ufsm.brNatália Weber Webernataliaweber26@gmail.comNara Marilene Oliveira Girardon-Perlininara.perlini@ufsm.brAnna Aracy Barcelos Ouriqueaourique@hotmail.comNaiana Oliveira dos Santos naiana.oliveira@ufsm.br<p><strong>Objective:</strong> to characterize family caregivers of older adults dependent due to Stroke in terms of sociodemographic variables, and to describe the activities performed and the difficulties faced in caregiving. <strong>Methodology:</strong> this is a cross-sectional and descriptive study, conducted between August and October 2024, with 12 caregivers of older adults dependent due to stroke at a geriatrics outpatient clinic of a university Hospital.

Multidimensional poverty goes beyond the lack of income, encompassing deprivation in essential areas such as education, health, housing, and sanitation. The COVID-19 pandemic has intensified these inequalities, especially affecting food, education, and income. In Brazil, more than 30 million children and adolescents live in multidimensional poverty, while in Mozambique, around 10 million face the same situation. Objective: To assess how public health policies in both countries address multidimensional poverty. Methods: A qualitative and documentary approach was used, analyzing public policies, reports from the Ministries of Health, and data from organizations such as UNICEF and WHO. The research covers normative acts from the past 36 years, focusing on policies aimed at child health and poverty reduction. Results: The results show that in Brazil, policies such as the Unified Health System (SUS) and the Bolsa Família Program have contributed to poverty reduction, although challenges remain. In Mozambique, despite some progress, policies are still limited—especially in rural areas—and poverty remains a major obstacle. Conclusions: More integrated policies involving health, education, and social conditions are needed to address the structural causes of poverty and reduce inequalities in both countries. Thus, the crucial role of nursing is highlighted in delivering integrated care and addressing vulnerabilities.</p>2025-10-02T00:00:00-03:00Copyright (c) 2025 Revista de Pesquisa Cuidado é Fundamental Onlinehttps://seer.unirio.br/cuidadofundamental/article/view/13411Epidemiological Profile of Lung Cancer Cases in the Context of the COVID-19 Pandemic in Mossoró / Perfil epidemiológico de casos de câncer de pulmão no contexto da pandemia da COVID-19 em Mossoró2024-07-12T22:41:07-03:00Ana Beatriz da Silvabana69796@gmail.comKalidia Felipe de Lima Costakalidiafelipe@uern.brKarla Regina Figueirôa Batistaensinoepesquisa@ligamossoroense.orgRenata Janice Morais Lima Ferreira Barrosrenatamorais@uern.brLetícia Emilly da Silva Moraisleticiaemilly@alu.uern.brLívia Natany Sousa Moraislivianatany@alu.uern.br<p>Objective: To analyze lung cancer cases in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic in the municipality of Mossoró.

Method: This is a descriptive and analytical study carried out with a group of elderly people enrolled in the Basic Health Unit (UBS) Cidade Alta in the municipality of Maringá. Collection took place from May to June 2024, through a semi-structured interview in four segments: sociodemographic and clinical questionnaire, Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE), adapted Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQ) and open questionnaire on understanding food choice and the relationship with memory. Result: Greater cognitive changes were identified in women with low education, income above the minimum wage and multiple chronic diseases. However, elderly people between 70-79 years old showed preserved cognition. The low consumption of neuroprotective foods reflects a lack of knowledge about the relationship between diet and cognition. Conclusion: that educational strategies and the implementation of the diets studied are essential to promote cognitive health and prevent deficits in long-lived populations.</p>2025-07-28T00:00:00-03:00Copyright (c) 2025 Revista de Pesquisa Cuidado é Fundamental Onlinehttps://seer.unirio.br/cuidadofundamental/article/view/13923Spatial distribution of dengue in the state of Rio de Janeiro, 2016-20232025-04-28T16:41:57-03:00Antônio Henrique Raederantonio.henriquers04@gmail.comTatiana Eleuteriotatirodriguesaraujo@yahoo.com.brDelson da Silvadelsonsil@gmail.comRenata Palmierirenatasouzap3@gmail.comDayane Silvadayannedlss@gmail.com<p><strong>Objective:</strong><span style="font-weight: 400;"> To describe and map the distribution of dengue incidence and seasonality in the state of Rio de Janeiro from 2016 to 2023, identifying the regions and municipalities with the highest incidence rates. </span><strong>Results:</strong><span style="font-weight: 400;"> A total of 305,748 dengue cases were reported across the state during the period.

The use of opioids is a common practice in the treatment of pain in palliative care, however, their prescription and administration require a personalized approach that is sensitive to the individual characteristics of patients. This study aimed to investigate the use of opioids in pain management among elderly people receiving home palliative care in the fourth most populous city in Brazil. <strong>Methods:</strong> This was an epidemiological, observational, cross-sectional study conducted through the analysis of electronic medical records. Patients receiving home care, experiencing pain symptoms, and aged over 18 years were included, while records with incomplete data were excluded. Data on epidemiological profile (gender, age, reason for home care) and pain management (use of analgesics, prescriptions) were collected. <strong>Results:</strong> The records of 80 palliative care patients with pain symptoms were analyzed, the majority being female (58.8%), with a mean age of 77.2±10.8 years, receiving home care due to cardiopulmonary and vascular diseases (38.6%). Opioid use was more frequent among females (55.2%), with morphine sulfate being the most commonly used opioid, in 10mg/ml (39.1%) and 2mg/ml (35.9%) presentations. <strong>Conclusion:</strong> In a predominantly elderly sample receiving palliative care and reporting pain, with home care due to cardiopulmonary and vascular causes, the predominant use of opioids, especially morphine sulfate, in pain management was identified. In these home care patients, the importance of personalized and sex-sensitive pain management strategies is emphasized.</p>2025-07-24T00:00:00-03:00Copyright (c) 2025 Revista de Pesquisa Cuidado é Fundamental Onlinehttps://seer.unirio.br/cuidadofundamental/article/view/13767Nurse Eva Maria Costa – the "dama da lâmpada" from 1980: an image analysis / Enfermeira Eva Maria Costa - a dama da lâmpada de 1980: uma análise imagética2025-01-31T17:12:09-03:00Andrea de Sant'ana Oliveiraandreasantoli@gmail.comOnãonatil.silva2@gmail.com<p><strong>Introdução</strong>: O estudo objetivou analisar a produção imagética à história da Enfermagem cuja fonte foi um fac-símile, no qual consta a imagem de Eva Maria Costa, na formatura de 1980, da Escola de Enfermagem Alfredo Pinto. <strong>Metodologia</strong>: estudo do tipo histórico-exploratório de aproximação com a semiótica, que utiliza o conceito de Martine Joly visando familiaridade com a temática. <strong>Resultado</strong>: a análise do fac-símile evidenciou a representatividade de Eva Maria Costa como Dama da Lâmpada. <strong>Considerações finais</strong>: alunas pertencentes à população negra podem alcançar destaque, pela obtenção de distinções durante o curso. Ademais, o estudo deixou inequívoco que a História da Enfermagem deve ser explorada, com novas e diferentes fontes, como a fotografia. Desta forma, será contributo para pesquisas sobre a temática das enfermeiras negras e suas contribuições representativas para a profissão.

The sample consisted of <strong>10 palliative care patients</strong>, simultaneously evaluated using the PAINAD and Abbey scales. Descriptive statistics and comparative graphs were analyzed. <strong>Results:</strong> the PAINAD scale showed greater stability and lower score dispersion, demonstrating higher sensitivity in detecting subtle pain variations, especially at moderate and severe levels. The Abbey scale, on the other hand, showed higher variability in scores and a tendency to classify more patients with severe pain. <strong>Conclusion:</strong> the findings suggest that the PAINAD scale may be preferable for continuous pain monitoring in non-communicative palliative care patients, while the Abbey scale may be useful for detecting more severe cases. The study reinforces the need for continuous training of nursing professionals to ensure the correct application of these scales, improving diagnostic accuracy and pain management.</p> <p> </p>2025-07-28T00:00:00-03:00Copyright (c) 2025 Revista de Pesquisa Cuidado é Fundamental Onlinehttps://seer.unirio.br/cuidadofundamental/article/view/13960Epidemiological profile of patientes with cardiopulmonar arrest treated in an emergency care unit2025-05-07T16:45:39-03:00Letícia Lorrany Rocha Ribeiroleticialorrany171@gmail.comSônia Maria Josino dos Santossmjosino@gmail.comJosilene de Melo Buriti Vasconcelosjosilenedemelo@gmail.comEmmily Ferreira de Farias Cardoso emmily.farias@academico.ufpb.brVannessa Maria Guedes Filgueiravannessamgf@gmail.comDanielly Farias Santos de Limadanisantosfaria02@gmail.com<p><strong>Objective:</strong> to characterize the epidemiological profile of patients in cardiopulmonary arrest treated at an emergency care unit. <strong>Method:</strong> a documentary, cross-sectional, retrospective, and quantitative study conducted at the oceania emergency care unit in João Pessoa, Paraíba, using 126 medical records of patients aged ≥18 years who experienced cardiopulmonary arrest between 2020 and 2024. data were analyzed using the statistical package for the social sciences, version 26, and the study was approved under opinion number 7.030.124. <strong>Results:</strong> most patients were male, from João Pessoa, aged ≥51 years, of mixed race, married, and had incomplete primary education. the most common comorbidities were arterial hypertension and diabetes mellitus.

Methods: Single-blind, randomized clinical trial with nursing professionals from an Emergency Room. Two training strategies were compared: clinical simulation as an intervention and a dialogued lecture as a control. Participants were stratified by professional category and randomized. Knowledge tests were applied before and after the interventions. Data distribution was assessed by the Shapiro-Wilk test. Intra-group comparisons were made using the Wilcoxon test and intergroup comparisons were made using the Mann-Whitney test. Results: Thirty professionals participated. The control group had a mean score of 5.6 in the pre-test and 8.0 in the post-test (p=0.001). The intervention group had a mean score of 5.0 in the pre-test and 7.0 in the post-test (p=0.001). There was a difference between the post-test means between the groups (p=0.037).

Simulation-based education contributes to students' learning and competency development. <strong>OBJECTIVE:</strong> To assess students' satisfaction after acute coronary syndrome simulation. <strong>METHOD:</strong> This is a quantitative cross-sectional study. The sample consisted of 33 students enrolled in the nursing course. Data collection was performed using the Scale of Satisfaction with Simulated Clinical Experiences. <strong>RESULTS:</strong> Greater satisfaction was noted in the item "Quality of simulators" (9.18±1.07). However, lower satisfaction was observed in the item "Motivation regarding attendance to practical classes" (7.12±2.09). In the distribution of scale means, three dimensions ("practical dimension", "realism dimension", and "cognitive dimension") showed high scores. <strong>CONCLUSION:</strong> Students demonstrated motivation with simulation-based education, agreeing that this teaching method provides satisfactory levels of satisfaction, as observed in the results.</p> <p><strong>DESCRIPTORS:</strong> Patient simulation; Nursing students; Personal satisfaction.</p>2025-03-28T00:00:00-03:00Copyright (c) 2025 Revista de Pesquisa Cuidado é Fundamental Onlinehttps://seer.unirio.br/cuidadofundamental/article/view/13778Practices and challenges of nurses in the routine of childcare in primary health care / Práticas e desafios de enfermeiros na rotina em puericultura da atenção primária à saúde 2025-02-05T14:55:42-03:00Nicoly Mycaela Eidelweinnicolyeidelwein23@gmail.comGabriela Capra Avilacapraavilagabriela@gmail.comVanessa Grossvanessa97gross@gmail.comDébora Cristina Limbergerdeboralimberger4@gmail.comIsabel Cristina dos Santos Coloméenfbel@yahoo.com.brLeonardo Bigolin Jantschleo_jantsch@hotmail.com<p><strong>Objective:</strong> this study aimed to understand the practices and difficulties faced by nurses during the performance of well-child visits in Primary Health Care in the northern region of Rio Grande do Sul. <strong>Method:</strong> using a qualitative and descriptive approach, the research involved the participation of 50 nurses who responded to a questionnaire.

Methods: this is a bibliometric study, which allows us to understand the patterns of scientific productivity over the years. Searches were carried out in the BVS, Lilacs and Bdenf databases, using the following descriptors from DeCS: prenatal care, primary health care and nursing care. The Boolean operator AND was associated with the descriptors. Results: after the bibliometric survey, 9 articles were identified that addressed the subject under study. These articles were published in 8 different journals. Conclusion: Based on the results presented, it appears that among the 9 articles that were recruited for the sample of this study, - from 2017 to 2024, studies with approaches that are inherently related to the main causes of inadequate prenatal care in primary care and its consequences prevailed.</p> <p>DESCRIPTORS: Prenatal care; Primary health care; Obstetric nursing; Bibliometrics.</p>2025-03-08T00:00:00-03:00Copyright (c) 2025 Revista de Pesquisa Cuidado é Fundamental Onlinehttps://seer.unirio.br/cuidadofundamental/article/view/14481Perspectivas globais da Enfermagem para os desafios do milênio: compromissos e caminhos até 20302025-11-18T06:38:35-03:00Taís Veronica Cardoso Vernaglia tais.vernaglia@unirio.brAndressa Teoli Nunciaroni Fernandesandressa.nunciaroni@unirio.brDaniele Galdino de Pauladanielle.paula@unirio.brAline Affonso Lunaaline.luna@unirio.br<p>O IV Congresso Internacional da Escola de Enfermagem Alfredo Pinto (EEAP/UNIRIO), realizado entre 24 e 26 de setembro de 2025, reuniu pesquisadores, docentes, estudantes e autoridades de diversos países para discutir o papel da Enfermagem diante dos desafios globais do milênio.
