Understanding "patient discharge in leprosy": a concept analysis. / Compreendendo a "alta em hanseníase": uma análise de conceito.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the concept of patient discharge in leprosy. METHODS: Theoretical study guided in the methodological framework of concept analysis. A bibliographical survey was held from December 2015 to January 2016 using the following bases: SCOPUS, CINAHL, PubMed, LILACS, SCIELO and BDENF, by use of the descriptors "Leprosy" and "Patient Discharge", resulting in 13 studies. RESULTS: The following were identified as possible uses for the concept: discharge by cure, drug use discharge, bacteriological discharge and post-discharge. The attributes defined were completion of multidrug therapy, completion of multidrug therapy for paucibacillary leprosy, completion of multidrug therapy for multibacillary leprosy and cure from leprosy. The presence of an M. leprae infection, symptoms present in skin and peripheral nerves, diagnosis and treatment and leprosy reactions were identified as antecedents. Consequents were exclusion from the active leprosy record and continuity of health care. One case model and one opposing case were presented. CONCLUSIONS: The analysis broadened the concept "discharge in leprosy", providing other meanings than the clinical definition of multidrug therapy.

Cases of violence involving transvestites and transsexuals in a northeastern Brazilian city. / Situações de violência contra travestis e transexuais em um município do nordeste brasileiro.

Objective To analyze cases of violence against transvestites and transsexuals based on their sociodemographic profile. Method Cross-sectional, descriptive research performed in Cajazeiras / Paraíba, consisting of 16 transvestites and transsexuals. Data collection took place in April 2014 and was analyzed descriptively. Results The typology of violence that victimized transvestites and transsexuals were: verbal (91.96%), psychological (58.33%) and physical (33.33%), often between 24 hours and six months preceding the survey. Regarding the spatiality: the street, school and health services were all scenarios of aggression. With respect to the offending agent, the findings point towards neighbors, family members and health professionals. All forms of violence happened between agents and spaces of aggression. Conclusions Violence among this population, silence around the situations of abuse became more pronounced as did its invisibility in the social and institutional context, reflecting the inhibition of human rights and concealment of reality.

Depressive symptoms and associated factors among travestis and transsexuals: a cross-sectional study.

OBJECTIVES: to estimate the prevalence of depressive levels and their associated factors among transvestite and transsexual individuals. METHODS: this cross-sectional study involved 58 participants assisted by non-governmental organizations. The Beck Depression Inventory was utilized to assess levels of depression, complemented by a sociodemographic questionnaire and a questionnaire on experiences of violence. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and Poisson regression with robust variance. RESULTS: a prevalence of 27.6% (95% CI = 11.50-39.10) for moderate to severe levels of depression was observed. This prevalence was associated with being unmarried (PR = 1.19; 95% CI = 1.10-1.28) and experiencing violence in healthcare services (PR = 2.30; 95% CI = 1.10-4.81). CONCLUSIONS: the absence of a partner and experiences of violence in healthcare settings negatively impacted mental health, leading to an increased prevalence of depressive symptoms among transvestite and transsexual individuals. Advocating for transgender rights and providing ongoing education in health care for professionals are critical strategies in promoting the mental health of this population.

Development and Content Validation of a Nursing Clinical Simulation Scenario on Transfusion Reaction Management.

Blood transfusion is a life-saving procedure widely used in healthcare. However, complications such as transfusion reactions may occur. Knowledge of these reactions is essential for patient safety. Nurses play a crucial role in this process by identifying complications and adverse reactions early on. A lack of professional competence in blood transfusion can lead to errors and serious complications, such as death. The aim of this study was to present evidence of the content validity of a simulated clinical scenario on transfusion reactions for teaching and learning for nursing students. This methodological study was carried out in three phases: (1) development of the simulated scenario of a transfusion reaction; (2) analysis of evidence of content validity by experts (n = 11); and (3) determination of satisfaction and self-confidence in the use of the simulated scenario by the nursing students (n = 45). The Content Validity Index was 94%. After the scenario had been developed, the content was validated and approved by 100% of the experts. All the items in the simulated scenario obtained agreement scores above 0.90. The simulated scenario was validated in terms of content and can be used to teach the management of transfusion reactions.

Experiences of mothers with early weaning: a grounded theory.

OBJECTIVE: To understand the experiences of mothers with early weaning. METHOD: Qualitative research with a theoretical-methodological contribution from Grounded Theory (Straussian perspective), carried out in the context of primary health care in a medium-sized municipality in the northeast of Brazil. 19 collaborators participated by theoretical sampling. Data collection took place between April and September 2018, with in-depth interviews, and was analyzed in three stages: open and axial coding, and integration. RESULTS: The central category "Women experiencing guilt and overload due to early weaning" was supported by three categories: a) conditions: "Showing the factors that limit breastfeeding"; b) actions/interactions: "Trying to balance motherhood and work during breastfeeding" and "Insufficient social support to keep exclusive breastfeeding"; and c) consequences: "Introducing formula and complementary foods before six months" and "Blaming oneself for the early weaning". FINAL CONSIDERATIONS: The theoretical model can give support to managers and health professionals to advocate for longer maternity leaves and confront gender disparities and inequities, professional performance with conflicts of interest, and abusive marketing regarding the use of formula.

Violence against children and adolescents: nurse's actions in primary health care.

OBJECTIVES: to analyze the role of nurses in suspected or confirmed cases of violence against children and adolescents in Primary Health Care. METHODS: an analytical research, with a qualitative approach. Thirty nurses participated in the study, and data were collected by means of an individual form and a semi-structured interview. The data received lexicographic analysis by the software IRaMuTeQ (Interface de R pour les Analyses Multidimensionnelles de Textes et de Questionnaires) organized by Bardin's content analysis. RESULTS: five categories emerged, in which it was possible to consider that the nurses' approach in cases of violence was based on the identification of violence through physical examination during nursing consultations, health promotion actions in the school environment, request for support from the multi-professional team, and transfer of responsibilities. FINAL CONSIDERATIONS: it is inferred that the fragility in the professional training of nurses to address situations of violence against children and adolescents produces deficits in comprehensive care for victims.

Intersections between rural women's resilience and quality of life: a mixed-methods study. / Interseções entre resiliência e qualidade de vida em mulheres rurais: estudo de métodos mistos.

OBJECTIVE: to analyze the intersections between rural women's quality of life and resilience. METHOD: convergent mixed methods design in which a cross-sectional quantitative study is triangulated with a qualitative study guided by Oral History. Data were collected concomitantly, using a socio-demographic form, Resilience Scale, Medical Outcomes Study 36-Item Short-Form Health Survey, and open-ended interviews. The analysis was based on descriptive and inferential statistics and inductive thematic analysis, which was integrated later. RESULTS: an association was found between the social aspects domain of quality of life and a moderate level of resilience related to the characteristics of life in rural areas. The integration of results enabled verifying that these two constructs (which mutually influence each other) are mediated by protective factors, resilience developed by the rural women, such as spirituality and the formation of social support, enchantment, and a feeling of belonging to their context. CONCLUSION: by developing protective factors, rural women develop a resilient behavior that favors their quality of life. Identifying these factors enables the development of psychosocial interventions to promote rural women's health.

Social representations of motherhood for women deprived of liberty in the female prison system. / Representações sociais da maternidade para mulheres em privação de liberdade no sistema prisional feminino.

This paper aimed to analyze the social representations of motherhood of pregnant women, breastfeeding women, and those who experienced pregnancy in deprivation of liberty in the prison system. This qualitative study was conducted with 42 women and is grounded on the assumptions of the Theoretical Paradigm of Social Representations. Most participants were young women aged 18-39 (90.5%; n=38) and single (50.0%; n=21); 61.9% (n=26) reported two or more pregnancies and 47.6% (n=20) reported one or more miscarriages. The possible representation of being a mother in prison was crystallized, in semantic terms, mainly by the terms "separation" (f=27; OME: 2.9), "sadness" (f=18; OME: 2.3), "horrible" (f=16; OME: 2.1) and "pain" (f=12; OME: 2.8). In the substitution and decontextualization zone, representations were objectified by the terms "separation" (f=18; OME: 3), "sadness" (f=13; OME: 2.5), "fear" (f=11; OME: 2.2) and "horrible" (f=10; OME: 1.5). It was evident that the centrality of social representations for the study participants reflects the suffering experienced by the separation of the mother-child dyad.

Neste artigo, objetivou-se analisar as representações sociais da maternidade de mulheres gestantes, lactantes e que vivenciaram a gestação em privação de liberdade no sistema prisional. Trata-se de estudo qualitativo, ancorado nos pressupostos do Paradigma Teórico das Representações Sociais, realizado com 42 mulheres. As participantes eram, em maioria, jovens entre 18 e 39 anos de idade (90,5%; n=38) e se encontravam solteiras (50,0%; n=21); 61,9% (n=26) relataram duas ou mais gestações e 47,6% (n=20) referiram um ou mais abortamentos. A possível representação do ser mãe na prisão se cristalizou, em termos semânticos, principalmente pelos termos "separação" (f=27; OME: 2,9), "tristeza" (f=18; OME: 2,3), "horrível" (f=16; OME: 2,1) e "dor" (f=12; OME: 2,8). Na zona de substituição e de descontextualização, as representações foram objetivadas pelos termos "separação" (f=18; OME: 3), "tristeza" (f=13; OME: 2,5), "medo" (f=11; OME: 2,2) e "horrível" (f=10; OME: 1,5). Evidenciou-se que a centralidade das representações sociais para as participantes do estudo reflete o sofrimento vivenciado pela separação da díade mãe-filho.

Mental health, art, and deinstitutionalization: an aesthetic-poetic-theatrical account of the city's occupation. / Saúde mental, arte e desinstitucionalização: um relato estético-poético-teatral de uma ocupação da cidade.

This study aimed to report the experience of an aesthetic, poetic, and theatrical production of the city's occupation from a device of the Psychosocial Care Network to offer space for sociability, production, and cultural intervention. This is an account of an experience from the Social and Cultural Center (CECCO) in Natal, Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil, within madness and mental health deinstitutionalization. The intervention "The Little Prince occupies the Ribeira" was inspired by the work of author Saint-Exupéry. The artistic and creative acts reported occurred in December 2019. We experienced in this intervention the reach of an aesthetic clinic that, when opened to the street and art, expanded and weaved in the territory, instrumentalized by theater, dance, poetry, percussion, crafts, and city's occupation. The movement led the community to "step down from the stage" to the streets and is connected with the twist of the asylum model and the production of the affection clinic that we seek to sustain in the daily service.

Objetivou-se relatar a experiência de uma produção estética, poética e teatral de ocupação da cidade a partir de um dispositivo da Rede de Atenção Psicossocial, com vistas a oferecer espaço de sociabilidade, produção e intervenção cultural. Trata-se de um relato de experiência a partir do Centro de Convivência e Cultura (CECCO) de Natal, Rio Grande do Norte, Brasil, dentro do campo da desinstitucionalização da loucura e da saúde mental. A intervenção urbana "O Pequeno Príncipe ocupa a Ribeira" foi inspirada na obra do escritor Saint-Exupéry. Os atos artísticos e criativos relatados aconteceram em dezembro de 2019. Experimentamos nessa intervenção os alcances de uma clínica-estética que, ao se abrir para a rua e para a arte, se amplia e se tece no território, instrumentalizado pelo teatro, dança, poesia, percussão, artesanato e ocupação da cidade. O movimento gerou no coletivo um "descer do palco" em direção à rua e se conecta com a desconstrução do modelo manicomial e produção da clínica dos afetos que buscamos sustentar no cotidiano do serviço.

Social Representations of nurses on the approach to children and adolescents who are victims of violence.

OBJECTIVE: to analyze social representations from the perspective of the structural aspect about the nurses' approach to children and adolescents who are victims of violence, comparing primary, secondary and tertiary health care services. METHOD: an analytical research study with a qualitative approach under the methodological theoretical framework of the Theory of Social Representations from the Central Core Theory. A total of 76 nurses participated in the study: 30 from primary care, 16 from secondary care and 30 from tertiary care. A semi-structured interview was applied using a pre-defined script and similarity analysis using the Interface of R pour les Analyses Multidimensionnelles de Textes et de Questionnaires software. RESULTS: structurally, the maximum tree revealed the central core in the upper right quadrant, the first peripheral zone in the upper left quadrant; the second peripheral zone in the lower left quadrant; and the silent zone in the lower right quadrant. The ten branches of the maximum tree emerged from the following terms: hit, leave, approach (n), receive, approach (v), remember, tell, spend, pass, caution, mom. CONCLUSION: the social representations on the nurses' approach in primary, secondary and tertiary care health services evidenced common points as for the lack of notification, transfer of responsibilities, weakness in identifying situations of violence and the need for training.

Factors associated with suicidal ideation among travestis and transsexuals receiving assistance from transgender organizations. / Fatores associados à ideação suicida entre travestis e transexuais assistidas por organizações não governamentais.

The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of suicidal ideation and explore associated factors among travestis and transsexuals. A cross-sectional study was conducted between 2015 and 2016 with 22 travestis and 36 transsexuals who were members of the four transgender organizations operating in the state of Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil. Associations between suicidal ideation and the categorical variables were measured using the chi-squared test, Fisher's exact test, and likelihood ratios. Multivariate analysis was performed using robust Poisson regression. The suicidal ideation prevalence rate was 41.4% (95%CI 41.3-54.51%): 13.79% among travestis (95%CI 4.91-22.66%) and 27.61% in transsexuals (95%CI 16.08-39.08%). The prevalence of suicidal ideation was higher among respondents who reported suffering violence at school (PR = 2.05; 95%CI 1.08-3.87) and those experiencing moderate/severe depression (PR = 3.86; 95%CI 1.51-9.83). The findings suggest that unfavorable school contexts and the presence of depression compromise mental health and contribute to suicidal ideation among travestis and transsexuals.

Objetivou-se analisar a prevalência e os fatores associados à ideação suicida em travestis e transexuais. Estudo transversal, realizado entre 2015 e 2016 com travestis (n = 22) e transexuais (n = 36) associadas a quatro organizações civis do Rio Grande do Norte. Avaliou-se a diferença entre as categorias por meio dos testes qui-quadrado, exato de Fisher e de razão de verossimilhança. Realizou-se a análise múltipla por meio da regressão de Poisson com variância robusta. A prevalência de ideação suicida foi de 41,4% (IC 95%: 41,3-54,51%), sendo de 13,79% entre travestis (IC 95%: 4,91-22,66%) e 27,61% entre transexuais (IC 95%: 16,08-39,08%). Observou-se que apresentaram maior prevalência de ideação suicida os participantes com histórico de violência na escola (RP = 2,05; IC 95%: 1,08-3,87) e classificados com níveis depressivos moderado/grave (RP = 3,86; IC 95%: 1,51-9,83). Contexto escolar desfavorável e presença de sintomatologia depressiva parecem prejudicar a saúde mental e colaborar com a ideação suicida de pessoas transexuais e travestis.

The theme of violence in nursing theses from the view of technological toolboxes.

Resignation, violence and filing complaint: social representations of the male aggressor from the perspective of the female victim of aggression. / Renúncia, violência e denúncia: representações sociais do homem agressor sob a ótica da mulher agredida.

The scope of this study is to analyze the social representations of the male aggressor from the perspective of the female victim of aggression. It is a qualitative and representational study conducted, using free narrative as the data-gathering tool, with twenty women who were under the protection of the Reference Center in Natal in the State of Rio Grande do Norte. ALCESTE 2010 software was used to analyze the textual data. Three thematic categories were developed for the purpose: i) The imprisonment of women; ii) Violence and its significance; iii) Breaking the cycle of violence. From the perspective of the female victim of aggression, the social representations of the behavior of the male aggressor are entrenched in the social role of males in the family and in society. In this way, it represents a model of dominant masculinity that in turn reinforces family structures and the repetition of roles.

Objetiva-se analisar as representações sociais do comportamento agressivo do homem sob a ótica da mulher agredida. Trata-se de um estudo de natureza qualitativa e representacional realizado com vinte mulheres que estavam sob proteção do Centro de Referência de Natal/RN, tendo como instrumento de coleta de dados a narrativa livre. Para a análise dos dados textuais, optou-se pelo uso do software ALCESTE 2010. Elaboraram-se três categorias de temáticas: i) O aprisionamento da mulher; ii) A violência e suas significações; iii) A ruptura do ciclo violento. As representações sociais do comportamento agressivo do homem sob a ótica da mulher agredida estão ancoradas nos papéis sociais do homem na família e na sociedade. Assim, configura-se um modelo de masculinidade dominante que reforça, construções familiares e repetições de papéis.

Contextual analysis of health care at discharge in leprosy: an integrative review. / Análise contextual da atenção à saúde na alta em hanseníase: uma revisão integrativa.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze contextual relations of health care in the discharge of leprosy. METHOD: An analytical, reflexive study based on the theoretical framework of context analysis, elaborated through an integrative review of literature in the databases SCOPUS, PUBMED, LILACS, SCIELO and BDENF, with uncontrolled descriptors Leprosy and Patient Discharge, obtaining 14 publications. RESULTS: The immediate context addresses health care at discharge in leprosy; the specific context treats leprosy as a public health problem; the symbolic conceptions and marks involving leprosy are encompassed by the general context; and in the metacontext are described the health programs and policies that subsidize the care of leprosy patients. CONCLUSION: The contextual elements emphasize the need to guarantee universal coverage of cases of leprosy, from diagnosis to the post-discharge, reinforcing leprosy as a public health problem. Despite the limitations of the bibliographic studies, these have relevance for the health area.

Depressive symptoms and associated factors among travestis and transsexuals: a cross-sectional study / Síntomas depresivos y factores asociados entre travestis y transexuales: estudio transversal / Sintomas depressivos e fatores associados entre travestis e transexuais: estudo transversal

ABSTRACT Objectives: to estimate the prevalence of depressive levels and their associated factors among transvestite and transsexual individuals. Methods: this cross-sectional study involved 58 participants assisted by non-governmental organizations. The Beck Depression Inventory was utilized to assess levels of depression, complemented by a sociodemographic questionnaire and a questionnaire on experiences of violence. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and Poisson regression with robust variance. Results: a prevalence of 27.6% (95% CI = 11.50-39.10) for moderate to severe levels of depression was observed. This prevalence was associated with being unmarried (PR = 1.19; 95% CI = 1.10-1.28) and experiencing violence in healthcare services (PR = 2.30; 95% CI = 1.10-4.81). Conclusions: the absence of a partner and experiences of violence in healthcare settings negatively impacted mental health, leading to an increased prevalence of depressive symptoms among transvestite and transsexual individuals. Advocating for transgender rights and providing ongoing education in health care for professionals are critical strategies in promoting the mental health of this population.
