This study aimed to reveal the main aspects of the work process and feelings of pleasure experienced by nursing technicians who work at an emergency unit in Paraná, Brazil. The theoretical basis is the psychodynamics of work. This is a qualitative and descriptive study. Data were collected and analyzed using a semi-structured interview and the content analysis technique. Subjects were selected using a snowball sampling. Important aspects of the work process were revealed such as the unpredictability of working in an emergency unit, the impact of team work, and the comprehensive care model as a precursor to humanized care. Pleasure originates from the acknowledgement of their work either by the working subject him/herself by patients or society; and from the team work, realized by the cooperation among professionals. Feelings of pleasure are linked to the acknowledgment of their work, which should be valued since gratification contributes to the psychological health of workers.

The expectation that individuals have when admitted to hospital, and their perception of the care they receive while in hospital, are aspects that define their level of satisfaction. Thus, the concept of responsiveness arose in the field of health evaluation. The objective of this study is to measure the responsiveness of nursing care from the client's point of view at a medical-surgical unit of a public university hospital, by means of an instrument that examines two categories, Expectations and Perceptions. This quantitative study was performed utilizing participant interviews. Data analysis was performed by calculating the relative satisfaction rate and interval, which allowed for rating of the nursing care provided. A correlation was made between the sociodemographic characteristics and the participants' prior hospitalization experiences. The results showed that nursing care has an Adequate representation. Some factors were considered responsible for the phenomenon of high satisfaction, such as the biases of gratitude and acquiescence.

This exploratory-descriptive study was performed with a qualitative approach, on the theoretical construct in the field of phenomenology, with the objective to identify the understanding of nurses of a public university hospital regarding the cost management report. Data collection was performed from August of 2009 to March of 2010, with 59 nurses, and consisted of three guiding questions: What is the meaning of cost management? How do you use the cost management report? What is the contribution of cost management reports? Results showed that nurses do not use this report in their practice, because they focus on the care issues, and justify this by the fact that they did not receive academic training in relation to cost management and also because they do not understand the report. The report, however, though little explored, contributes with the practice of nurses who hold a management position, in terms of cost management and control.

The aim of this study was to analyze the meanings given to investigative research by nurse clinicians enrolled in a research support group. The interpretive anthropology theoretical frame was used along with an ethnographic case study. Data was collected through semi-structured individual and group interviews, document and statement analysis as well as field diary notes. The statements of 36 participants were analyzed interpretively identifying four categories: activity's value, researching is learning, the movements about the activity, the activity is hard work that demands personal effort. We understand that once research training initiative is supported by the organization and desired by the nurse, it becomes a scientific-pedagogical strategy for academic nursing formation with positive repercussions to care assistance.

OBJECTIVE: To understand the relationship between accreditation and patient safety from the perspective of the nursing team. METHOD: A descriptive-exploratory study implementing a qualitative approach. It was developed with nursing workers from two Intensive Care Units in a hospital certified in excellence by Brazilian accreditation. The participants responded to individual semi-structured interviews guided by the question: "Tell me about the relationship between accreditation and patient safety in this hospital and unit". The corpus was transcribed in full, and the thematic content analysis technique was used. RESULTS: There were 14 professionals interviewed. There are several specific improvements in patient safety mediated by accreditation between the two emerging categories. The workers reported that at times the advances in safe care are transversally visible to the certification/maintenance of accreditation visit, and at times they point to safety as something independent of the quality seal. CONCLUSION: It was concluded that the investigated relationship was shown to be both dependent, as accreditation is a bridge for specific improvements, as well as independent, since patient safety goes beyond the certification process itself. In this context, criticality was revealed among nursing workers.

Investigate the factors associated with the glycemic control in people with diabetes mellitus (DM). Cross-sectional study with 746 people with type-2 DM of age 40 or older. The following variables were selected: socioeconomic, clinical data, lifestyle and the risk of developing foot ulcers. Data collection occurred through interviews, medical record analysis and clinical examination of the lower limbs. We used the Poisson multiple regression model to determine the crude and adjusted prevalence ratios (PR) of the glycemic alteration. The alteration in the glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) test was considered as a dependent variable in this study, which has been classified as high when the result was higher than 7%. The alteration in HbA1c was present in 68.9% of the participants and was more prevalent in individuals aged between 50 and 69 (PR = 1.38/IC95% = 1.09-1.75), who were taking insulin (PR = 1.35/IC95% = 1.24-1.47), obese (PR = 1.14/IC95% = 1.03-1.25) and who had foot ulceration risk (PR = 1.14/IC95% = 1.09-1.28). Individuals aged between 50 and 69; the ones who used insulin; the obese ones; and those who had a risk of foot ulceration, presented higher prevalence rates of alteration in the glycated hemoglobin.

The paper describes the construction of a questionnaire to assess the quality of care of a Rapid Response Team at the University Hospital of Londrina, based on the conceptual model of Donabedian (structure-process-outcome). Data collection occurred in March 2012 and the process of adjusting the questionnaire was developed with the application of the Delphi technique involving 15 experts. At the end of the study the questionnaire contained 37 statements, achieving final compliance level higher than 80% in all concepts. It is hoped that the contributions of the expert group produce a more reliable questionnaire to be applied in other similar services. Future applications of this instrument may provide information to better assess the quality of teams of Rapid Response services.

AIMS: To identify the prevalence of higher risk of foot ulceration and associated factors among patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) at primary health care services. METHODS: Individuals with DM, registered at primary health care services in a municipality in southern Brazil, were interviewed and underwent foot examinations. Their risk of ulceration was classified in accordance with the recommendations of the International Working Group on the Diabetic Foot. Poisson bivariate and multivariate analyses were performed and adjusted prevalence ratios (PR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were calculated. RESULTS: The prevalence of higher risk of foot ulceration among the 337 interviewees was 27.9% (95% CI 23.1-32.9). The following factors were associated with this risk: having been diagnosed with DM for more than 10 years (Adjusted-PR 1.669; 95% CI 1.175-2.373; p=0.004); having had previous diagnoses of acute myocardial infarction (Adjusted-PR 1.873; 95% CI 1.330-2.638; p<0.001) and stroke (Adjusted-PR 1.684; 95% CI 1.089-2.604; p=0.019); presenting interdigital mycosis (Adjusted-PR 1.539; 95% CI 1.030-2.300; p=0.035) and calluses (Adjusted-PR 1.654; 95% CI 1.117-2.451; p=0.012). CONCLUSIONS: The prevalence of higher risk of ulceration was high, which reinforces the importance of continued education for health care professionals in order to prevent complications in the feet of these patients.

A coleta dos dados ocorreu por meio de entrevista, análise do prontuário e exame clínico dos membros inferiores. Utilizou-se o modelo de regressão múltipla de Poisson para determinação das razões de prevalência (RP) brutas e ajustadas da alteração do exame de hemoglobina glicada (HbA1c), considerada como variável dependente desta pesquisa, sendo esta classificada como elevada quando o valor apresentava resultado superior a 7%. Identificou-se a elevação da HbA1c em 68,9% dos participantes e foi mais prevalente em indivíduos com idade entre 50 e 69 anos (RP = 1,38/IC95% = 1,09-1,75), os que faziam uso de insulina (RP = 1,35/IC95% = 1,24-1,47), obesos (RP = 1,14/IC95% = 1,03-1,25) e naqueles que possuíam risco de ulceração nos pés (RP = 1,14/IC95% = 1,09-1,28). Os indivíduos na faixa etária entre 50 e 69 anos, os que faziam uso de insulina, os obesos e os que possuíam risco de ulceração nos pés apresentaram maiores taxas de prevalência de alteração na hemoglobina glicada.
Abstract Investigate the factors associated with the glycemic control in people with diabetes mellitus (DM). Cross-sectional study with 746 people with type-2 DM of age 40 or older. The following variables were selected: socioeconomic, clinical data, lifestyle and the risk of developing foot ulcers. Data collection occurred through interviews, medical record analysis and clinical examination of the lower limbs. We used the Poisson multiple regression model to determine the crude and adjusted prevalence ratios (PR) of the glycemic alteration. The alteration in the glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) test was considered as a dependent variable in this study, which has been classified as high when the result was higher than 7%. The alteration in HbA1c was present in 68.9% of the participants and was more prevalent in individuals aged between 50 and 69 (PR = 1.38/IC95% = 1.09-1.75), who were taking insulin (PR = 1.35/IC95% = 1.24-1.47), obese (PR = 1.14/IC95% = 1.03-1.25) and who had foot ulceration risk (PR = 1.14/IC95% = 1.09-1.28). Individuals aged between 50 and 69; the ones who used insulin; the obese ones; and those who had a risk of foot ulceration, presented higher prevalence rates of alteration in the glycated hemoglobin.

Cross-sectional descriptive study aimed to assess the health status of nursing staff retrained due to illness of a public university hospital in northern Paraná, Brazil. Data of 34 workers were collected through the application of the Medical Outcomes Studies 36 items - Short Form (MOS SF-36). The results showed that physical problems were the reason for retraining in 91.2 % of cases. Of the eight domains assessed by the MOS SF -36, the worst scores referred to bodily pain, vitality and general health and the best scores were attributed to aspects of the mental health component. Workers retrained due to physical reason had lower scores in all domains except emotional performance in relation to those with mental problem. The evaluation of the perceived health of these workers showed that retraining due to illness is a strategy developed to enhance the functional capacity of workers, despite their limitations.

Verificar o efeito da consulta de enfermagem fundamentada no autocuidado apoiado sobre o conhecimento e a atitude frente à doença, na qualidade de vida e adesão às atividades de autocuidado em pessoas com diabetes mellitus (DM) tipo 2. Ensaio clínico randomizado e controlado desenvolvido em município no Sul do Brasil no período de março de 2014 a janeiro de 2015. Participaram do estudo 134 indivíduos alocados aleatoriamente em dois grupos: intervenção (GI) e controle (GC). Para a coleta de dados foram aplicados quatro questionários nos dois grupos e em dois momentos (inicial e final). O GI recebeu atendimento constituído por três consultas de enfermagem bimensais intercaladas por duas ligações telefônicas para monitoramento das metas pactuadas e a assistência de rotina constituída por consulta médica por demanda espontânea e fornecimento gratuito de medicação prescrita. O GC só recebeu os cuidados de rotina. Os integrantes do GI apresentaram mudança significativa em relação ao conhecimento sobre o diabetes (p<0,001), impacto da doença na qualidade de vida (p=0,002), na atitude frente à doença (p=0,024) e na adesão às atividades de autocuidado (p<0,001). A consulta de enfermagem centrada no autocuidado apoiado tem efeitos positivos sobre conhecimento e a atitude frente à doença e sobre a adesão às atividades de autocuidado, porém aumenta o impacto da doença na qualidade de vida.

To verify the effect of nursing consultation based on self-care supported on knowledge and attitude towards disease, quality of life and adherence to self-care activities in people with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM). This is a randomized and controlled clinical trial developed in a city in southern Brazil from March 2014 to January 2015. A total of 134 individuals participated in the study and were randomly assigned to two groups: intervention group (IG) and control group (CG). For the data collection, four questionnaires were applied in both groups and in two moments (initial and final). The IG received care consisting of three bi-monthly nursing consultations interspersed by two telephone calls to monitor the agreed goals and the routine care, consisting of medical consultation by spontaneous demand and free supply of prescribed medication. The CG only received the routine care. The IG presented a significant change in knowledge about diabetes (p <0.001), impact of the disease on quality of life (p = 0.002), attitude towards disease (p = 0.024) and adherence to self-care activities (p <0.001). The nursing consultation focused on supported self-care has positive effects on knowledge and attitude towards the disease and on adherence to self-care activities, but increases the impact of the disease on quality of life.
