Prevalência de nascimentos prematuros como desfechos de infecções pela COVID-19 na gestação / Prevalence of Preterm Birth as an Outcome of COVID-19 Infections during Pregnancy / Prevalencia de nacimientos prematuros producto de la infección por COVID-19 durante el embarazo

Objetivo: estimar a prevalência de nascimento prematuro em gestantes infectadas pela Covid-19, comparar índices de prematuridade entre infectadas e não infectadas e elucidar fatores associados à prematuridade. Métodos: coorte retrospectiva, com coleta de dados por inquérito online, de abril a dezembro de 2022, com mulheres que estiveram gestantes durante a pandemia, com acesso à internet, idade superior a 18 anos e que preencheram o primeiro inquérito online. Protocolo de pesquisa aprovado pelo Comitê de Ética. Resultados: primeiro inquérito respondido por 304 gestantes/puérperas, e o segundo por 82 (27%), compondo a amostra final. O índice de prematuridade no primeiro inquérito foi de 7,2% (n=14), já no segundo, 8,5% (n=7). A infecção pela Covid-19 não foi associada à prematuridade. A prematuridade associou-se a baixo peso, à necessidade de internação em centros de terapia intensiva neonatal e internações após o nascimento. Conclusão: a infecção pela Covid-19 não influenciou no aumento de nascimentos prematuros.

Objective: to estimate the prevalence of preterm birth in pregnant women infected with Covid-19, compare prematurity rates between infected and non-infected, and elucidate factors associated with prematurity. Methods: a retrospective cohort study was conducted using online survey data collected from April to December 2022, involving women who were pregnant during the pandemic, had internet access, were over 18 years old, and completed the initial online survey. The research protocol was approved by the Ethics Committee. Results: the initial survey was completed by 304 pregnant/postpartum women, and the follow-up survey by 82 (27%), comprising the final sample. The preterm birth rate in the initial survey was 7.2% (n=14), and in the follow-up survey, it was 8.5% (n=7). Covid-19 infection was not associated with prematurity. Prematurity was associated with low birth weight, the need for neonatal intensive care unit admission, and postnatal hospitalizations. Conclusion: Covid-19 infection did not influence an increase in preterm births.

Objetivo: estimar la prevalencia de partos prematuros en gestantes infectadas por Covid-19, comparar las tasas de prematuridad entre gestantes infectadas y no infectadas y determinar los factores asociados a la prematuridad. Métodos: estudio de cohorte retrospectivo, con recolección de datos mediante encuesta online, de abril a diciembre de 2022, con mujeres que estuvieron embarazadas durante la pandemia, con acceso a internet, mayores de 18 años y que completaron la primera encuesta online. El protocolo de investigación fue aprobado por el Comité de Ética. Resultados: la primera encuesta fue respondida por 304 gestantes/puérperas, y la segunda por 82 (27%), que conformaron la muestra final. La tasa de prematuridad en la primera encuesta fue del 7,2% (n=14), en la segunda, del 8,5% (n=7). La infección por Covid-19 no se asoció con la prematuridad. La prematuridad se asoció con bajo peso, necesidad de internación en centros de cuidados intensivos neonatales e internaciones después del nacimiento. Conclusión: La infección por Covid-19 no influyó en el aumento de nacimientos prematuros.

HIV and childhood tuberculosis: fragmentation of the flow of information in the countryside of the state of São Paulo / HIV e tuberculose infantil: a fragmentação do fluxo de informação no interior paulista / VIH y tuberculosis infantil: la fragmentación del flujo de información en el interior del estado de São Paulo

Background and objectives: children are still affected by HIV and tuberculosis (TB). This study aimed to identify the occurrence of HIV and TB cases in children. Methods: this is an epidemiological, non-experimental, retrospective study, in which the population was made up of records of HIV and TB cases in children living in a municipality in the countryside of the state of São Paulo, from 2012 to 2022, in the age group of zero to 13 years old. After data collection, data consistency and validity was checked, followed by categorization of information for descriptive analyses and presentation in absolute and relative frequency tables. Results: during the study period, six HIV cases and seven TB cases were identified in children with a respective average annual incidence of 0.033 and 0.031 cases/1,000 inhabitants aged up to 13 years. There were 146 notifications of HIV-exposed children. There was a difference of months to years between the dates of diagnosis and notification, which deviates from the Ministry of Health recommendations. Incompatibility was found between municipal and state registration platforms, which shows a breakdown in flow of information on notifications. Conclusion: there have been HIV and childhood TB cases in the last ten years. Structural problems were identified in the fragmentation of the flow of information that subsidizes health actions according to the population's needs, which overshadows the health system's ability to respond.(AU)

Justificativa e Objetivos: crianças ainda são afetadas pelo HIV e pela tuberculose (TB). Dessa forma, o objetivo do estudo foi identificar a ocorrência de casos de HIV e TB em crianças. Métodos: trata-se de estudo epidemiológico, não experimental, retrospectivo, em que a população foi constituída pelo registro de casos infantis de HIV e TB residentes em um município do interior do estado de São Paulo, no período de 2012 a 2022, na faixa etária de zero a 13 anos de idade. Após a coleta de dados, foi realizada a verificação de consistência e validade dos dados, seguida do tratamento categorizado das informações para análises descritivas e apresentação em tabelas de frequência absoluta e relativa. Resultados: no período de estudo, foram identificados seis casos de HIV e sete de TB em crianças com média anual respectiva de 0,033 e 0,031 casos/1.000 habitantes com idade até 13 anos. Verificaram-se 146 notificações de criança exposta ao HIV. Houve diferença de meses a anos entre as datas de diagnóstico e de notificação, o que diverge do recomendado pelo Ministério da Saúde. Foi verificada a incompatibilidade entre plataformas de registro de âmbito municipal e estadual, o que evidencia uma quebra do fluxo de informação das notificações. Conclusão: houve ocorrência de casos de HIV e TB infantil nos últimos dez anos. Foram identificados problemas estruturais na fragmentação do fluxo da informação que subsidia ações de saúde de acordo com as necessidades da população, o que ofusca a capacidade de resposta do sistema de saúde.(AU)

Antecedentes y Objetivos: los niños siguen estando afectados por el VIH y la tuberculosis (TB). El objetivo de este estudio fue identificar la ocurrencia de casos de VIH y TB en niños. Métodos: se trata de un estudio epidemiológico, no experimental, retrospectivo, en el cual la población fue constituida por los registros de casos de VIH y TB en niños residentes en un municipio del interior del estado de São Paulo entre 2012 y 2022, con edad entre cero y 13 años. Después de la recolección de datos, se verificó la consistencia y validez de los mismos, seguido del tratamiento categorizado de la información para análisis descriptivos y presentación en tablas de frecuencias absolutas y relativas. Resultados: durante el periodo de estudio, se identificaron seis casos de VIH y siete de TB en niños, con una incidencia media anual respectiva de 0,033 y 0,031 casos/1.000 habitantes de hasta 13 años. Hubo 146 notificaciones de niños expuestos al VIH. Hubo una diferencia de meses a años entre las fechas de diagnóstico y notificación, lo que se desvía de lo recomendado por el Ministerio de Salud. Hubo incompatibilidad entre las plataformas de registro municipal y estatal, lo que muestra una ruptura en el flujo de información sobre las notificaciones. Conclusión: se han registrado casos de VIH y de tuberculosis infantil en los últimos diez años. Se identificaron problemas estructurales en la fragmentación del flujo de información que subvenciona las acciones sanitarias según las necesidades de la población, lo que ensombrece la capacidad de respuesta del sistema sanitario.(AU)

Home visit to premature and low birth weight newborns: nurse's experience report.

OBJECTIVE: To report the structures of the experience of nurse's home visits to premature and low birth weight newborns. METHOD: This is a descriptive study of the experience report type, structured on the experience of the nurse authors in the development of 48 home visits in a city in the state of São Paulo and its microregion between August 2020 and 2021 with eight mothers of premature and low weight newborns. RESULTS: The guiding documents "Home visit for families with preterm and low birth weight newborns" and "Strategy of guiding questions for home visits" were created and used to promote open narratives from parental caregivers about caring for at-risk newborns, creating a relational space aimed at joint construction. CONCLUSION: The documents used have favored home visits, helping nurses to establish professional bonds and build relational space through dialogue when conducting their activities in the home environment.

Factors intervening in the childbirth experience: a mixed-methods study.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the childbirth experience focusing on the intervening factors and on the delivery method. METHOD: A sequential and explanatory mixed-methods study guided by the World Health Organization document for positive childbirth experiences. The participants were puerperal women in a maternity teaching hospital from inland São Paulo (Brazil). The first quantitative stage involved descriptive analysis with Poisson regression of 265 answers to the "Termômetro da Iniciativa Hospital Amigo da Mulher e da Criança" ("Women- and Baby-Friendly Hospital Initiative Thermometer") questionnaire. The second stage, qualitative, thematically analyzed the interviews conducted with 44 puerperal women who took part in the first stage. Data integration was by connection. THE RESULTS AND DISCUSSION: The analysis by connection showed that among the factors that restricted the positive experience, C-section was predominant (61.9%), understood as an option due to fear of pain, the treatment modality and previous traumas. Restrictions referring to the presence of a companion (99.6%), not having privacy (83%), disrespectful situations (69.5%), too many touches (56.9%) and the absence of skin-to-skin contact (55%), among others, potentiated fear, loneliness, concern, shame, the perception of disrespect and insecurity with the assistance provided. The promoting factors were as follows: choosing the companion (95.4%) for collaborating in the safety perception, not having infections (83.9%), having continuous team monitoring (82.2%) and pain relief methods (78.9%), which were valued by the women. CONCLUSION: The intervening factors that promoted positive experiences were related to clinical and protocol-related issues and to service availability. The restrictive factors were associated with excess interventions, deprivation of rights and of choice, absence of privacy and restriction referring to the presence of a companion. Women with a normal postpartum period felt more insecure and disrespected when compared to those subjected to C-sections, whose choices were considered, although they had lower prevalence of skin-to-skin contact. There is an urgent need to apprehend women's experiences and turn them into actions that guarantee their lives in a safe and respectful way.

Gestações e nascimentos em tempos de COVID-19 / Embarazos y nacimientos en tiempos de COVID-19 / Pregnancies and births in times of COVID-19

Resumo Objetivo Identificar o perfil de nascimentos das gestações de mulheres com acesso à internet que cursaram com a infecção pelo SARS-CoV-2 e seus desfechos. Métodos Estudo transversal integrado a uma coorte prospectiva, com coleta entre agosto de 2021 e fevereiro de 2022, baseado nas respostas de 304 mulheres que tiveram gestações e/ou partos durante o período pandêmico. Resultados Do total, 25,7% das entrevistadas tiveram COVID-19, com predomínio de diagnósticos no terceiro trimestre. Queixas de anosmia, fadiga e cefaleia prevaleceram como relacionados à infecção. As variáveis: utilizar o Sistema Único de Saúde para atendimento (p = 0,084); diabetes gestacional (p = 0,141); baixo peso de nascimento (p = 0,117); necessidade de internação em unidade neonatal (p = 0,120) foram inseridas no modelo de regressão por terem valores de p inferiores a 0,20. A variável referente ao tipo de parto (p=1,000) foi inserida no modelo por se tratar de uma variável de interesse e com descrição de relevância na literatura. A prematuridade foi a única variável que apresentou associação estatística com a infecção pelo SARS-CoV-2 durante a gestação (p = 0,008) na análise bivariada, explicando o desfecho da infecção na gestação (<0,001), comprovado no modelo de Regressão Robusta de Poisson. Conclusão Observou-se alta prevalência de COVID-19 na amostra, com variação de sintomas e predomínio de partos operatórios. No entanto, a infecção pelo SARS-CoV-2 explicou apenas a maior ocorrência de nascimentos prematuros.

Resumen Objetivo Identificar el perfil de nacimientos de los embarazos de mujeres con acceso a internet que lo cursaron con la infección por SARS-CoV-2 y sus desenlaces. Métodos Estudio transversal integrado a una cohorte prospectiva, con recopilación entre agosto de 2021 y febrero de 2022, basado en las respuestas de 304 mujeres que tuvieron embarazos o partos durante el período pandémico. Resultados Del total, el 25,7 % de las entrevistadas tuvieron COVID-19, con predominio de diagnósticos en el tercer trimestre. Prevalecieron quejas de anosmia, fatiga y cefalea como relacionadas a la infección. Las variables utilización del Sistema Único de Salud para atención (p = 0,084), diabetes gestacional (p = 0,141), bajo peso de nacimiento (p = 0,117), necesidad de internación en unidad neonatal (p = 0,120) se introdujeron en el modelo de regresión por tener valores de p inferiores a 0,20. Se introdujo la variable relacionada al tipo de parto (p = 1,000) en el modelo por tratarse de una variable de interés y con descripción de relevancia en la literatura. La prematuridad fue la única variable que presentó asociación estadística con la infección por SARS-CoV-2 durante el embarazo (p = 0,008) en el análisis bivariado, lo que explica el desenlace de la infección en el embarazo (>0,001), comprobado en el modelo de regresión robusta de Poisson. Conclusión Se observó alta prevalencia de COVID-19 en la muestra, con variación de síntomas y predominio de partos operatorios. Sin embargo, la infección por SARS-CoV-2 explicó solamente la mayor incidencia de nacimientos prematuros.

Abstract Objective Identify the profile of births of pregnancies of women with internet access who were infected with SARS-CoV-2 and their outcomes. Methods Cross-sectional study integrated into a prospective cohort, with collection between August 2021 and February 2022, based on the responses of 304 women who had pregnancies and/or deliveries during the pandemic period. Results Of the total, 25.7% of the interviewees had COVID-19, with a predominance of diagnoses in the third quarter. Complaints of anosmia, fatigue and headache prevailed as related to the infection. The variables using the Unified Health System for care (p = 0.084); gestational diabetes (p = 0.141); low birth weight (p = 0.117); need for admission to a neonatal unit (p = 0.120) were included in the regression model because they had p values lower than 0.20. The variable referring to the type of delivery (p=1.000) was inserted in the model because it is a variable of interest and with a description of relevance in the literature. Prematurity was the only variable that was statistically associated with SARS-CoV-2 infection during pregnancy (p = 0.008) in the bivariate analysis, explaining the outcome of infection during pregnancy (<0.001), confirmed in the Poisson Robust Regression model. Conclusion There was a high prevalence of COVID-19 in the sample, with varying symptoms and a predominance of operative deliveries. However, SARS-CoV-2 infection only explained the higher occurrence of premature births.

Contação de histórias durante a hospitalização de crianças: percepções das mães à luz do Interacionismo Simbólico / Storytelling during children's hospitalization: mothers' perceptions in the light of Symbolic Interactionism / Narración de cuentos durante la hospitalización infantil: las percepciones de las madres a la luz del Interaccionismo Simbólico

Objetivo: descrever as percepções de acompanhantes sobre o impacto da contação de histórias durante a hospitalização de crianças. Métodos: trata-se de estudo qualitativo, apoiado no Interacionismo Simbólico, desenvolvido na unidade de internação pediátrica de um Hospital Universitário. Foram entrevistadas, entre junho e julho de 2023, nove mulheres, acompanhantes de crianças hospitalizadas, que participaram da atividade semanal de contação de histórias. A análise dos dados foi direcionada pela Análise Temática de Conteúdo. Resultados: a contação de histórias foi significada enquanto um contraponto ao cotidiano entediante e imerso em preocupações que marcam a hospitalização infantil. Emergiram duas categorias temáticas da percepção das mães sobre contação de histórias no contexto da hospitalização de crianças, "Estreitamento das relações entre crianças, acompanhantes e contadores de histórias", que contribuiu para o fortalecimento do vínculo entre acompanhante, criança e equipe multiprofissional e "Momento de acolhimento para as crianças e acompanhantes", que revela o efeito de proporcionar um momento de distração, alegria e conforto para as mães. Conclusão: a contação de histórias promove ambiência propícia para o enfrentamento da doença, proporciona bem-estar, alegria e conforto para as mães acompanhantes. Impacta positivamente no comportamento das crianças e acompanhantes durante a internação e estimula sua continuidade no ambiente domiciliar.

Objective: to describe companions' perceptions of the impact of storytelling during children's hospitalization. Methods: this is a qualitative study, supported by Symbolic Interactionism, developed in the pediatric inpatient unit of a university hospital. Between June and July 2023, nine women, companions of hospitalized children, who participated in the weekly storytelling activity, were interviewed. Data analysis was directed by thematic content analysis. Results: storytelling was meant as a counterpoint to the boring daily life and immersed in concerns that characterize children's hospitalization. Two thematic categories emerged from mothers' perception of storytelling in the context of children's hospitalization, "Strengthening relationships between children, companions and storytellers", which contributed to strengthening the bond between companion, child and multidisciplinary team, and "Moment of welcoming for children and companions", which reveals the effect of providing a moment of distraction, joy and comfort for mothers. Conclusion:storytelling promotes an environment conducive to coping with the disease, providing well-being, joy and comfort for accompanying mothers. It positively impacts the behavior of children and companions during hospitalization and encourages their continuity in home environments.

Objetivo: describir las percepciones de los acompañantes sobre el impacto de la narración de cuentos durante la hospitalización de los niños. Métodos: se trata de un estudio cualitativo, sustentado en el Interaccionismo Simbólico, desarrollado en la unidad de internación pediátrica de un hospital universitario. Entre junio y julio de 2023, fueron entrevistadas nueve mujeres, acompañantes de niños hospitalizados, que participaron de la actividad semanal de cuentacuentos. El análisis de los datos fue guiado por el análisis de contenido temático. Resultados: la narración de cuentos pretendía ser un contrapunto a la vida cotidiana aburrida y sumergida en las inquietudes que caracterizan la hospitalización de los niños. Dos categorías temáticas surgieron de la percepción de las madres sobre la narración de cuentos en el contexto de la hospitalización infantil, "Fortalecimiento de las relaciones entre niños, acompañantes y narradores", que contribuyó a fortalecer el vínculo entre acompañante, niño y equipo multidisciplinario, y "Momento de acogida para niños y acompañantes", que revela el efecto de brindar un momento de distracción, alegría y consuelo a las madres. Conclusión: la narración de cuentos promueve un ambiente propicio para el afrontamiento de la enfermedad, brindando bienestar, alegría y consuelo a las madres acompañantes. Impacta positivamente en el comportamiento de los niños y acompañantes durante la hospitalización y fomenta su continuidad en el ambiente hogareño.

Fear of COVID-19 when experiencing pregnancy or childbirth in the pandemic: what are the associated factors?

OBJECTIVE: to identify factors associated with fear of COVID-19 among women who experienced pregnancy or childbirth during the pandemic. METHODS: a cross-sectional study, nested within a prospective cohort, using an online survey, from August 2021 to February 2022, based on descriptive data analysis. RESULTS: of the 431 participants, 52.8% were postpartum women and 20.1% were pregnant women. With regard to fear of COVID-19, a mean score of 20.46 was obtained (moderate fear). The highest fear scores were present in women whose newborns were admitted to hospital in neonatal critical units (p=0.032), and the lowest among those covered by supplementary health (insurance) (p=0.016). CONCLUSION: among pregnant and postpartum women, high fear of COVID-19 translated into the possibility of having newborns admitted to hospital in a critical unit. The importance of supporting actions to support pregnant/postpartum women's mental health in relation to COVID-19 or other threats that may influence the neonatal outcome stands out.

Quantification of blood loss for the diagnosis of postpartum hemorrhage: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

OBJECTIVE: to compare the effectiveness of different diagnostic methods to estimate postpartum blood volume loss. METHODS: a systematic review of effectiveness according to PRISMA and JBI Protocol. Searches in PubMed/MEDLINE, LILACS, Scopus, Embase, Web of Science and CINAHL, with descriptor "Postpartum Hemorrhage" associated with keyword "Quantification of Blood Loss". Tabulated extracted data, presented in metasynthesis and meta-analysis was applied to quantitative data. To assess risk of bias, JBI Appraisal Tools were applied. RESULTS: fourteen studies were included, published between 2006 and 2021. Quantification of loss by any method was superior to visual estimation and is highly recommended, however the studies' high heterogeneity did not allow estimating this association. CONCLUSION: the studies' high heterogeneity, with a probable margin of error given the uncontrolled factors, indicates the need for further studies, however quantification proved to be effective in relation to visual estimate.

Parents' hope in perinatal and neonatal palliative care: a scoping review.

BACKGROUND: The diagnosis of a life-limiting condition of a child in the perinatal or neonatal period is a threat to parental hopes. Hope is an interactional and multidimensional construct, and in palliative care, it is a determinant of quality of life, survival, acceptance and peaceful death. OBJECTIVE: To map scientific evidence on parents' hope in perinatal and neonatal palliative care contexts. METHOD: a scoping review theoretically grounded on Dufault and Martocchio's Framework, following the Joanna Briggs Institute methodological recommendations. Searches were performed until May 2023 in the MEDLINE, CINAHL and PsycINFO databases. The searches returned 1341 studies. RESULTS: Eligible papers included 27 studies, most of which were carried out in the United States under a phenomenological or literature review approach. The centrality of women's perspectives in the context of pregnancy and perinatal palliative care was identified. The parental hope experience is articulated in dealing with the uncertainty of information and diagnosis, an approach to which interaction with health professionals is a determinant and potentially distressful element. Hope was identified as one of the determinants of coping and, consequently, linked to autonomy and parenthood. Cognitive and affiliative dimensions were the hope dimensions that predominated in the results, which corresponded to the parents' ability to formulate realistic goals and meaningful interpersonal relationships, respectively. CONCLUSION: Hope is a force capable of guiding parents along the path of uncertainties experienced through the diagnosis of a condition that compromises their child's life. Health professionals can manage the family's hope by establishing sensitive therapeutic relationships that focus on the dimension of hope. The need for advanced research and intervention in parental and family hope are some of the points made in this study. PROTOCOL REGISTRATION: https://osf.io/u9xr5/ .

Percepções das mães que são profissionais de saúde sobre as relações na unidade neonatal / Health professionals mothers' perceptions about relationships in the neonatal unit / Percepciones de las madres profesionales de la salud sobre las relaciones en la unidad neonatal

Objetivo: discutir as percepções das mães que são profissionais de saúde sobre as relações na unidade neonatal. Método: estudo qualitativo, apoiado no Interacionismo Simbólico, com 11 mães de recém-nascidos pré-termo que são profissionais da saúde. Após aprovação pelo Comitê de Ética em Pesquisa, os dados foram coletados de maio a outubro de 2021, por meio de entrevistas individuais, e submetidos à análise de conteúdo temática. Resultados: apesar de as mães serem profissionais da saúde, as relações na unidade neonatal foram difíceis, sofridas, desconfortantes e restritivas ao processo de 'ser e tornar-se mãe'. Estas desvelaram sentimentos de não pertencimento ao cuidado e de afastamento de suas crianças. Conclusão: as relações entre mães e profissionais da saúde atuantes na unidade neonatal estiveram marcadas por sofrimentos, limitações e desconfortos, sendo lacunares em processos colaborativos, na contramão do Cuidado Centrado na Família(AU)

Objective: to discuss the perceptions of mothers who are health professionals about relationships in the neonatal unit. Method: a qualitative study, based on Symbolic Interactionism, with 11 mothers of preterm newborns who are health professionals. After approval by the Research Ethics Committee, data was collected from May yo October 2021, through individual interviews, and subjected to thematic content analysis. Results: despite the mothers being health professionals, relationships in the neonatal unit were difficult, painful, uncomfortable, and restrictive to the process of 'being and becoming a mother'. They revealed feelings of not belonging to care and of being away from their children. Conclusion: the relationships between mothers and health professionals working in the neonatal unit were marked by suffering, limitations, and discomfort, and were lacking in collaborative process, going against Family-Centered Care(AU)

Objetivo: discutir las percepciones de las madres profesionales de salud sobre las relaciones en la unidad neonatal. Método: estudio cualitativo, basado en el Interaccionismo Simbólico, con 11 madres de recién nacidos prematuros que son profesionales de la salud. Previa aprobación del Comité de Ética en Investigación, se recolectaron los datos de mayo a octubre de 2021, mediante entrevistas individuales y los sometieron a análisis temático de contenido. Resultados: aunque las madres eran profesionales de salud, las relaciones en la unidad neonatal fueron difíciles, dolorosas, incómodas y restrictivas al proceso de 'ser y volverse madre'. Revelaron sentimientos de no pertenencia a los cuidados y de alejamiento de sus hijos. Conclusión: las relaciones entre las madres y los profesionales sanitarios que trabajan en la unidad neonatal estaban marcadas por el sufrimiento, las limitaciones y la incomodidad, y carecían de procesos de colaboración, lo que iba en contra de la Atención Centrada en la Familia(AU)

Breastfeeding prevalence in newborns of mothers with COVID-19: a systematic review.

OBJECTIVES: to compare exclusive breastfeeding prevalence versus artificial feeding in newborns of mothers with COVID-19. METHODS: a systematic review of prevalence, according to JBI. Searches in PubMed®, Embase, CINAHL, LILACS and Web of Science™ databases in August 2021. Cross-sectional, longitudinal or cohort studies were selected, without language and time limitations that showed breastfeeding prevalence or that allowed calculation. RESULTS: fifteen articles published in 2020 and 2021, cohort (60%) or cross-sectional (40%) were analyzed. The average of exclusive breastfeeding in mothers with COVID-19 was 56.76% (CI=39.90-72.88), and artificial breastfeeding, 43.23% (CI = 30.99 - 55.88), without statistically significant differences. CONCLUSIONS: despite the recommendations for maintaining breastfeeding, there was a reduction worldwide, when compared to periods prior to the pandemic. With advances in science, these rates have improved, showing the impact of evidence on practices. As limitations, study sources are cited. It is recommended to carry out new studies.

Effectiveness of individualized counseling on the duration of exclusive breastfeeding: study protocol for a multicenter, randomized, parallel, and open clinical trial.

BACKGROUND: Despite the benefits of breastfeeding, early weaning is a reality, so less than 50% of children worldwide and in Brazil are on exclusive breastfeeding in the sixth month of life. A strategy to counteract this scenario is breastfeeding counseling. This study aims to verify the effectiveness of individualized counseling by nurses trained in breastfeeding counseling, on the duration of exclusive breastfeeding, compared to standard care. METHODS: Multicenter, randomized, parallel, and open clinical trial, with primiparous women aged over 18 years, hospitalized in rooming-in wards at participating centers and hemodynamically stable, aware, and oriented, who had a single-fetus pregnancy and gave birth, regardless of the type of delivery, with live child, gestational age of 37 to 42 weeks and birth weight greater than 2500 g. The women will be initially approached in rooming-in wards and, upon consent to participate in the study, will be allocated through randomization by blocks composed of eight participants in two groups: intervention and control. The randomization lists will be organized by a central without involvement with the study, which will manage the allocation groups and be prepared in the Randon® program. Women allocated to the intervention group will receive breastfeeding counseling by trained nurses, and those in the control group will receive standard care at the center participating in the study. DISCUSSION: The results can contribute to breastfeeding by evidencing possible exclusivity and duration of the counseling trained nurses provide.

Circle of culture in supporting the identity process of adolescents: an action research.

OBJECTIVE: To report and discuss the experience of the Circle of Culture in a school space, with attention to the social identity of adolescents. METHOD: Action research, conducted under the assumptions of the Circle of Culture, from August to December 2019. Participants were 16 adolescents, enrolled in Elementary School, in a state public school, in the rural district of a city of São Paulo. Data collection took place through photographic records, participant observation and field diary.

Searching for human connection to transcend symbolisms in pediatric palliative care.

OBJECTIVES: to present a theoretical model for the interactional context of health professionals and families of children and adolescents under palliative care. METHODS: qualitative study based on the theoretical frameworks of Grounded Theory and Symbolic Interactionism. Ten palliative care professionals took part in this study through semi-structured interviews employing snowball technique from 2020 to 2021. RESULTS: the comparative data analysis resulted in the theoretical model "Searching for human connection to transcend symbolisms in pediatric palliative care". It reveals symbolic elements that substantiate the construction of a collaborative context integrating two phenomena: "Overcoming boundaries and intertwining paths" and "Embracing suffering to weave meaningful experiences". Symbolisms in palliative care guide the behavior of families and professionals, which makes them the key factor to be managed. FINAL CONSIDERATIONS: symbolisms and suffering continually integrate the interactional experience of professionals. Empathy and compassion are fundamental elements to enable their connection with families.

Skin-to-Skin Contact in the Third Stage of Labor and Postpartum Hemorrhage Prevention: A Scoping Review.

INTRODUCTION: Literature supports numerous benefits of skin-to-skin contact for neonatal adaptation to extrauterine life and bonding/attachment, but few studies explore the effects of skin-to-skin contact on maternal outcomes. This review aims to map the evidence on skin-to-skin contact in the third stage of labor for postpartum hemorrhage prevention. METHODS: Scoping review, which covered stages recommended by the Institute Joanna Briggs, including studies from the PubMed, EMBASE, CINAHL, LILACS, Web of Science, and Scopus databases, using the descriptors "Postpartum hemorrhage", "Labor stages, third", "Prevention" and "Kangaroo care/Skin-to-skin". RESULTS: 100 publications on the subject found, 13 articles met the inclusion criteria, with 10,169 dyads were assessed in all studies. Publications from 2008 to 2021 were mostly written in English and designed as a randomized controlled trial. Skin-to-skin contact was effective and significant in: reducing the duration of the third stage of labor; placenta delivery; uterine contractility and physiological involution; absence of atony, decreasing blood loss with lower rates of erythrocyte and hemoglobin drop; reducing the need for synthetic oxytocin and/or ergometrine to control bleeding; and reducing changing pads per period and length of stay. DISCUSSION: Skin-to-skin contact was considered an effective, low-cost, and safe strategy, with positive effects already established in the literature for infants and extremely favorable results in postpartum hemorrhage prevention cases, being highly recommended in assistance for the dyad.
