RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: Sensory information obtained from the visual, somatosensory, and vestibular systems is responsible for regulating postural control, and if damage occurs in one or more of these sensory systems, postural control may be altered. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate and compare the postural sway velocity between children with normal hearing and with sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL), matched by sex and age group, and to compare the postural sway velocity between children with normal hearing and with SNHL, with and without vestibular dysfunction. METHODS: Cross-sectional study that evaluated 130 children (65 with normal hearing and 65 with SNHL), of both sexes and aged between 7 and 11 years, from public schools of the city of Caruaru, Pernambuco state, Brazil. The postural sway velocity of the center of pressure (COP) was assessed by a force platform, in two directions, anteroposterior (AP) and mediolateral (ML)), in three positions, namely bipedal support with feet together and parallel (parallel feet (PF)), bipedal support with one foot in front of the other (tandem foot (TF)), and single-leg support (one foot (OF)), evaluated with the eyes open and closed. RESULTS: Children with SNHL demonstrated greater postural sway velocity compared to children with normal hearing in all the positions evaluated, with significant differences in the AP direction, with the eyes open (PF: p = 0.001; TF: p = 0.000; OF: p = 0.003) and closed (PF: p = 0.050; TF: p = 0.005). The same occurred in the ML direction, with the eyes open (PF: p = 0.001; TF: p = 0.000; OF: p = 0.001) and closed (PF: p = 0.002; TF: p = 0.000). The same occurred in relation to vestibular function, where the children with SNHL with an associated vestibular dysfunction demonstrated greater postural sway velocity compared to children with normal hearing in all the positions evaluated, demonstrating significant differences in the AP direction, with the eyes open (TF: p = 0.001; OF: p = 0.029) and eyes closed (PF: p = 0.036; TF: p = 0.033). The same occurred in the ML direction, with the eyes open (TF: p = 0.000) and with the eyes closed (PF: p = 0.008; TF: p = 0.009). CONCLUSIONS: Children with SNHL demonstrated greater instability of postural control than children with normal hearing in all the directions assessed. Children with SNHL and an associated vestibular dysfunction demonstrated the greatest instability of postural control in this study.

BACKGROUND: Children and adolescents with sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) often experience motor skill disturbances, particularly in balance and gait, due to potential vestibular dysfunctions resulting from inner ear damage. Consequently, several studies have proposed the use of virtual reality-based games as a technological resource for therapeutic purposes, aiming to improve the balance and gait of this population. OBJECTIVE: The objective of this systematic review is to evaluate the quality of evidence derived from randomized or quasi-randomized controlled trials that employed virtual reality-based games to enhance the balance and/or gait of children and adolescents with SNHL. METHODS: A comprehensive search was conducted across nine databases, encompassing articles published in any language until 1 July 2023. The following inclusion criteria were applied: randomized or quasi-randomized controlled trials involving volunteers from both groups with a clinical diagnosis of bilateral SNHL, aged 6-19 years, devoid of physical, cognitive, or neurological deficits other than vestibular dysfunction, and utilizing virtual reality-based games as an intervention to improve balance and/or gait outcomes. RESULTS: Initially, a total of 5984 articles were identified through the searches. Following the removal of duplicates and screening of titles and abstracts, eight studies remained for full reading, out of which three trials met the eligibility criteria for this systematic review. The included trials exhibited a very low quality of evidence concerning the balance outcome, and none of the trials evaluated gait. The meta-analysis did not reveal significant differences in balance improvement between the use of traditional balance exercises and virtual reality-based games for adolescents with SNHL (effect size: -0.48; [CI: -1.54 to 0.57]; p = 0.37; I2 = 0%). CONCLUSION: Virtual reality-based games show promise as a potential technology to be included among the therapeutic options for rehabilitating the balance of children and adolescents with SNHL. However, given the methodological limitations of the trials and the overall low quality of evidence currently available on this topic, caution should be exercised when interpreting the results of the trials analyzed in this systematic review.

Qualitative, descriptive, and exploratory study in three stages: 1) Diagnosis - participation of physicians and mothers; 2) Development - video production; 3) Evaluation - perception from physicians about the video. Bardin's content analysis was used;Stage 1 showed: inadequate environment, little concern about the mothers, little emotional support, inadequate openness for dialog, inadequate language and communication, little empathy, and need to improve humanization. About the video based on Stage 1, the perception of physicians indicated: increased degree of responsibility, reflections on their professional practices, and encouragement to theoretical knowledge and to empathy in professional relations in the Intensive Care Unit. There are issues in the process of delivering bad news, and the use of educational participatory videos is an important strategy to humanize health care.
RESUMEN
Through the last decades, Realistic Simulation for medical undergraduates has been consolidated as an important active learning method, known as Simulation Based Learning, a strategy able to foster self-confidence and courage to act in real situations as the medical students develop skills, attitudes and values related to the medical practice. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of realistic simulation in the teaching of pediatric emergencies in terms of promoting self-confidence in undergraduate among medical students. A prospective interventional study was conducted in a medical course at a public University in Brazil. The study sample included 40 medical students from the fourth to the eighth semesters of the course. The group attended to a workshop on pediatric emergencies entitled "Cardiopulmonary resuscitation in pediatrics" and at the end of this activity they engaged in a realistic simulation exercise. Then, a Scale for satisfaction and self-confidence, translated and validated for Portuguese in 2015, was applied to the medical students.The average age of the students ranged between 21.8 and 22.2 yo. As for gender, 60% were male and 40% female. Most students (67.5%) were in the fourth semester of the course and for 80 of them, this simulation activity represented their first experience with this learning method. In terms of self-confidence, 97% of the participants felt confident about the content of the simulation activity. Moreover, all the students involved in simulation activity felt more confident to act in a similar scenario in the real- life medical practice. Self-confidence resulting from realistic simulation can foster positive attitudinal changes among medical undergraduates. Higher self-confidence levels among medical students and physicians are related to more successful medical interventions as they can practice, test, and improve their medical skills before being exposed to similar real-life medical situations. Accordingly, there is a greater need to implement realistic simulations as an active learning methodology in the undergraduate medical curriculum.

Este tem se mostrado eficaz na promoçaÌo da autoconfiança de estudantes de medicina e relevante por estimular a segurança de agir, baseado nas habilidades, valores, metas e experieÌncias vivenciadas na formaçaÌo. Este estudo teve como objetivo avaliar o impacto do uso da simulaçaÌo realiÌstica no ensino de emergeÌncias pediaÌtricas para a promoçaÌo de autoconfiança de graduandos em medicina. Realizou-se um estudo prospectivo de intervençaÌo educacional, em um curso de GraduaçaÌo em Medicina no Brasil. A amostra por convenieÌncia foi composta por 40 graduandos entre o segundo e o quarto ano do curso. Os estudantes participaram de um workshop sobre emergeÌncia pediaÌtrica com tema "reanimaçaÌo cardiopulmonar em pediatria", sendo ao final submetidos aÌ simulaçaÌo realiÌstica. Foi aplicada a Escala de SatisfaçaÌo dos Estudantes e Autoconfiança com a Aprendizagem, traduzida e validada para o portugueÌs em 2015. A idade dos estudantes variou entre 21,8 e 22,2 anos. Quanto ao sexo, 60% eram do masculino e 40% do feminino. Estavam matriculados no segundo ano do curso, 67,5% dos estudantes e 32,5% no terceiro e quarto. Para 80% dos estudantes, esta foi a primeira experieÌncia com simulaçaÌo e 90% deles naÌo estavam participando de outra atividade extracurricular. Acerca da autoconfiança, 95% dos estudantes afirmaram que a simulaçaÌo abordou o conteuÌdo necessaÌrio para a formaçaÌo, 97,5% referiram estar confiantes sobre o domiÌnio do conteuÌdo da atividade apresentada e 100% dos estudantes afirmou autoconfiança para realizar um atendimento em ambiente real, reportando os conhecimentos adquiridos na simulaçaÌo. A autoconfiança promovida pela simulaçaÌo eÌ um preÌ-requisito necessaÌrio para mudanças positivas no comportamento e nas açoÌes dos estudantes. Profissionais e estudantes de medicina, com maiores niÌveis de autoconfiança, teÌm melhores perspectivas de serem bem-sucedidos nas suas intervençoÌes, pois conseguem prontamente testar e aplicar as suas competeÌncias. Assim, sinaliza-se para uma maior necessidade de incluir a simulaçaÌo nos curriÌculos dos cursos meÌdicos como metodologia ativa.

Abstract The SPIKES protocol is one of the most didactic tools to teach the communication of bad news, a skill that requires sensitivity and preparation. This article analyzed the perceptions of pediatrics residents and the mothers of neonates about the communication of bad news in a neonatal intensive care unit. This is a qualitative, descriptive and exploratory study, based on visual anthropology, in which the SPIKES protocol was used in two focus groups, with Bardin's content analytics approach by categories. Problems were reported as inadequate environment to break bad news, limitations in the perception of mothers, lack of medical availability to talk, inadequate language and difficulty to deal with emotions, clarify doubts and discuss strategies with family members. Reflection on these issues aims to improve theoretical learning and stimulate self-criticism, seeking empathy and the humanization of care.

Comunicación en SaludRESUMEN
Societal influences, such as beliefs and behaviors, and their increasing complexity add to the challenges of interactivity promoted by globalization. This study was developed during a virtual global educational exchange experience and designed for research and educational purposes to assess personal social and cultural risk factors for students' COVID-19 personal prevention behavior and perceptions about life during the pandemic, and to inform future educational efforts in intercultural learning for healthcare students. We designed and implemented a cross-sectional anonymous online survey intended to assess social and cultural risk factors for COVID-19 personal prevention behavior and students' perceptions about life during the pandemic in public health and healthcare students in two public universities (United States n = 53; Brazil n = 55). Statistically significant differences existed between the United States and Brazil students in degree type, employment, risk behavior, personal prevention procedures, sanitization perceptions, and views of governmental policies. Cultural and social differences, risk messaging, and lifestyle factors may contribute to disparities in perceptions and behaviors of students around the novel infectious disease, with implications for future global infectious disease control.

Abstract Objective: To present, the process of development and evaluation of an educational software on the Child Health Handbook proposed for the continuing education of primary care nurses and physicians. Methods: Quantitative study of methodological development. For software development, the following steps were followed: definition of objectives; determination of the target audience; choice of pedagogical and theoretical reference for content; content selection and structuring; software development and evaluation by experts (five nurses and four physicians). All responded to an instrument that included four domains: pedagogical; content; functionality; system presentation and usability. The evaluation criteria were arranged on a Likert-type scale. The percentage of agreement and Content Validity Index were used for the quantitative analysis of the degree of agreement, considering a Content Validity Index cutoff point equal to 0.80. Results: The overall agreement index, calculated by the arithmetic mean of the Contents Validity Index of the evaluated domains, was 0.96, with scores ranging from 0.90 to 1.00. The average percentage of agreement of the experts per domain was 92.86%, with lower agreement in the content (80.95%), presentation, and usability (90.48%) domains. 100% of percentage of agreement was observed in the pedagogical and functionality domains among the evaluated specialists. Conclusion: The percentage of agreement, Content Validity Index and overall agreement index of the Child Health Handbook educational software in the context of primary care disclosed the software adequacy as an educational resource for continuing education of primary care nurses and physicians. Considering the assessed dimensions, it can also be used by other health professionals and undergraduate students.

BACKGROUND: Balance and gait disorders have been observed in children and adolescents with sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL), justified by vestibular dysfunctions that these children may present, due to the injury to the inner ear. Therefore, some investigations have suggested that the practice of sports or recreational activities can improve the balance and gait of this population. OBJECTIVE: Assess the evidence quality from randomized or quasi-randomized controlled trials that used sports or recreational activities as an intervention to improve the balance and /or gait of children and/or adolescents with SNHL. METHODS: Systematic review that surveyed articles in nine databases, published up to January 10, 2019, in any language, using the following inclusion criteria: (1) Randomized or quasi-randomized controlled trials. (2) Participants from both groups with the clinical diagnosis of SNHL, aged 6-19 years old, without physical problems, cognitive or neurological deficits, except the vestibular dysfunction. (3) Using the practice of sports or recreational activities as an intervention, to improve the balance and/or gait outcomes. RESULTS: 4732 articles were identified in the searches, after the removal of the duplicates articles and the reading of the titles and their abstracts, remained 16 articles for reading in full, being 5 trials eligible for this systematic review. Of the five eligible trials, three used sports activities and two recreational activities as intervention and presented very low-quality evidence for balance and gait outcomes. SIGNIFICANCE: Sports and recreational practices seem to represent promising modalities to improve the balance and gait of children and adolescents with SNHL. However, due to the methodological limitations of the trials and the low quality of the current evidence on the topic, the results of the trials should be interpreted with caution. Due to the low quality of evidence observed, we suggest that new trials be proposed on this topic, with greater methodological rigor, to provide high-quality evidence on the effectiveness of sports and recreational practices to improve the balance and gait of children and adolescents with SNHL.

BACKGROUND: Several studies have demonstrated that children with sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) exhibit postural instabilities, as well as balance and gait disorders, due to the vestibular dysfunction that they are prone to display as a consequence of inner ear injury. Thus, some experiments have proposed vestibular rehabilitation exercises programs as a treatment to improve these motor skills in children with SNHL. OBJECTIVE: Assess the evidence quality of the trials that used vestibular rehabilitation exercises programs to improve the postural control, balance and gait of children with SNHL. METHODS: This is a systematic review that surveyed articles in nine databases, published up to July 4, 2019, in any language, using the following inclusion criteria: (1) Randomized or quasi-randomized controlled trials. (2) Participants of both groups with clinical diagnosis of SNHL, aged up to 12 years old, with no physical problems, cognitive or neurological impairments, except the vestibular dysfunction. (3) Using vestibular rehabilitation exercises programs to improve the following outcomes: postural control, balance and/or gait. RESULTS: Six experiments, including 153 children, met the inclusion criteria of this systematic review. Two randomized controlled trials (45 children) on the postural control exhibited low evidence quality and four others; three randomized and controlled trials (90 children) on the balance and one quasi-randomized (18 children) on the gait demonstrated very low evidence quality, respectively. CONCLUSION: There is promising evidence that vestibular rehabilitation exercises programs improve the postural control, balance and gait of children with SNHL. However, due to the methodological limitations of the trials and low quality of current evidence on this topic, the trials results analyzed by this systematic review should be interpreted with caution. Due to the low quality of evidence observed in this review, we suggest that new trials be proposed on this topic, with better methodological quality, to prove the effectiveness of vestibular rehabilitation exercises programs to improve the postural control, balance and gait of children with SNHL.

INTRODUCTION: Some studies have demonstrated a parallelism between the extent of hearing loss and the frequency of vestibular dysfunction in children with sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL). Despite this, little is known about the repercussion of degrees of hearing loss and etiological factors on the balance performance in this children. OBJECTIVE: Compare the balance performance between normal hearing (NH) children and those with SNHL, considering the sex and age range of the sample, and analyze balance performance according to the degrees of hearing loss and etiological factors in the latter group. METHODS: Cross-sectional study that assessed 96 children (48 NH and 48 with SNHL), aged between 7 and 18 years old. The balance performance was assessed by the Brazilian version of the Pediatric Balance Scale, validated for Brazilian child population and the Mann-Whitney test used for statistical analysis. RESULTS: The group with SNHL showed lower average balance performance compared to NH (pâ¯=â¯0.000). This was also observed when the children were grouped by sex: female and male (pâ¯=â¯0.001). The same difference occurred when the children were stratified by age group: 7-14 years old (pâ¯=â¯0.000). There were no differences between the balance performance of the groups according to the degrees of hearing loss (pâ¯=â¯0.236) and the children with prematurity or post-natal meningitis as an etiological factor demonstrated the worst balance performance. CONCLUSION: The children with SNHL showed worse balance performance compared to NH of the same sex and age range between seven to fourteen years. There were no differences between balance performance and hearing loss degrees, and those children with prematurity or post-natal meningitis as an etiological factor demonstrated the worst balance performances.
