RESUMO
PURPOSE: To evaluate the susceptibility profiles of Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains identified in chronic venous ulcers treated with platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and petrolatum gauze or petrolatum gauze alone and to quantitatively evaluate the bacterial load and biofilm-forming capacities of the detected S. aureus and P. aeruginosa strains. DESIGN: Randomized controlled trial. SUBJECTS AND SETTING: The convenience sample included 36 participants; 18 were allocated to the PRP combined with the petrolatum gauze group, and 18 were allocated to the control group, which was treated with petrolatum gauze alone. METHODS: Thirty-six patients presenting with chronic venous ulcers were consecutively randomized to the PRP group (n = 18) or the petrolatum gauze control group (n = 18). We followed participants for 3 months during treatment and collected swab cultures from their wounds during weeks 1, 6, and 12 or until the wounds healed. The samples were analyzed using mass spectrometry. Antimicrobial susceptibility tests were performed using disk diffusion. RESULTS: P. aeruginosa was identified in 39 (39%) of 100 samples, and S. aureus was detected in only 10 (10%) samples collected over the study period. At the end of the 12-week treatment period, the wound infections reduced in both the PRP (P = .0078) and control groups (P = .01). The microorganisms were susceptible to most of the tested antimicrobials. The PRP did not increase the bacterial load in the wounds. All S. aureus strains identified showed biofilm-forming capacities and were classified as weak biofilm producers. All P. aeruginosa strains produced biofilm, with 17 strains being classified as weak, 14 as moderate, and 8 as strong biofilm producers. CONCLUSIONS: The PRP plus petrolatum gauze did not increase bacteriological growth or the microbial load in chronic venous ulcers compared with petrolatum gauze alone and could be a considered as an advanced treatment option for these types of chronic wounds.

BACKGROUND: Patient undergoing surgery may be afraid and concerned about the diagnosis, the treatment, the procedure, the postoperative care, and the surgical recovery. Good communication between staff and patients can minimize or prevent this situation. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of a Telecare nursing intervention, "Telephone consultation", in reducing the "Delayed surgical recovery" nursing diagnosis in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy and hernia repair. METHODS: This study was performed in two different institutions located in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. A total of 43 patients were enrolled. The experimental group consisted of 22 patients who had access to the telephone follow-up intervention, and the control group consisted of 21 patients who received conventional treatment without telephone follow-up. This was a randomized controlled study with patients who were 60 years or older and awaiting operative procedures of hernia repair and laparoscopic cholecystectomy who had a mobile or landline phone and were available for telephone contact. RESULTS: There was a reduction in "loss of appetite with nausea" (p = 0.013); "need help to complete self-care" (p = 0.041); "pain" (p = 0.041); and "postoperative sensation" (p = 0.023). The experimental group showed a significantly larger decrease in factors related to the "Delayed surgical recovery" diagnosis, suggesting a positive effect of the intervention compared to the effect in control group.\. CONCLUSION: Telephone consultation identified factors that increased the risk of complications after surgery, recognized potential patients for delayed surgical recovery and helped perioperative nurses provide accurate interventions to prevent or mitigate delayed recovery.This study was registered in the platform Brazilian Registry of Clinical Trials (ReBEC) - link: http://www.ensaiosclinicos.gov.br under registration number RBR-4C249M, retrospectively registered on April 13, 2020.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Surgical recovery can be defined as the days required to initiate activities that maintain life, health, and well-being. AIM: The main study objective was to compare the effectiveness of telephone versus conventional follow-up in postsurgical older adult patients. METHODS: This is a quasi-experimental study with random sampling. Postsurgical patients over 60 years old who had undergone gastrectomy and colectomy were selected from 2 hospitals and randomly divided into intervention group (22 patients) and control group (21 patients). Data collection was performed from January to September 2014. The differences in surgical recovery between the control and intervention groups were measured at 48 hours, 4 weeks, and 8 weeks after surgery. RESULTS: Patients in the control group took significantly longer duration in the length of surgical recovery from the first to the second (P = .007) and to the third evaluation time points (P = .013). Patients in the intervention group had significant less impaired mobility (P = .003), need for assistance for self-care (P = .009), fatigue (P = .048), and time required for recuperation (P = .048). CONCLUSION: Telephone follow-up reduced the occurrence of delayed surgical recovery.

Objective Cross-mapping of terms referring to nursing interventions and outcomes in the medical records of patients with wounds compared to nursing interventions and nursing outcomes classifications. Method An observational retrospective study based on cross-mapping. The sample consisted of 81 outpatients treated in a university hospital in Rio de Janeiro. Data was collected from medical records between May and July of 2013. The analysis was done in four steps: search for phrases used to describe interventions and outcomes; setting the frequency of occurrence of phrases; grouping synonyms; comparison of terms with taxonomies. Results 13 interventions were mapped and the most frequent was "Care with wounds" (47.23%). Also, 6 results were mapped and the priority was "Wound healing: secondary intention" (45%). Conclusions The use of cross-mapping of terms referring to interventions and nursing outcomes in patients with wounds suggested additions to the taxonomies for adaptation to outpatient care.

Delayed surgical recovery is a phenomenon of global concern that affects the results and costs of postoperative care. The aim of this study was to verify the accuracy of the defining characteristics of the diagnosis of delayed surgical recovery in patients after the fifth day in postoperative care. A cross-sectional observational study was conducted with 72 surgical patients to measure sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive values, positive likelihood ratios and negative odds ratios. Diagnoses and the area under the ROC curve were analysed to investigate the diagnostic accuracy of each defining characteristic. Most patients were male (65.3%) with an average length of education of 17.4 years (SD = 1.88) and a mean age of 57.39 years (SD = 16.04), and 55 (76.4%) had the diagnosis of delayed surgical recovery. The variable time after surgery showed a statistical relationship with the diagnosis of delayed surgical recovery (p = .012). Seven characteristics showed high positive predictive values: postpones resumption of work/employment activities, fatigue, perception of needing more time to recover, requiring help to complete self-care, report of discomfort, evidence of interrupted healing of the surgical area, and difficulty in moving about. The only factor in the study that was associated with the diagnosis was postoperative surgical site infection (p = .028).

OBJECTIVE: Implementing cross-mapping of Nursing language terms with the terminology of NANDA International, contained in records of patients with Parkinson's disease in rehabilitation. METHOD: Descriptive study of cross mapping, carried out in three steps. A simple random sample of 67 files of patients who participated in the rehabilitation in the period between March 2009 and April 2013. RESULTS: We identified 454 terms of Nursing language that resulted in 54 diagnoses after cross-mapping, present in 11 of the 13 taxonomy domains. The most mapped diagnosis was "Impaired urinary elimination" (59.7%), followed by "Urgent urinary incontinence" (55.2%), "Willingness to self-control improved health" (50.7%), "Constipation" (47.8%) and "Compromised physical mobility" (29.9%). Seven described terms were not mapped due to a corresponding defining characteristic being absent. CONCLUSION: It was possible to determine the profile of patients, as well as the complexity of nursing care in the rehabilitation of patients with Parkinson's disease.

PURPOSE: This study aims to conduct a thorough analysis of the concept of insufficient health literacy (IHL) in older adults and to refine a nursing diagnosis proposal while considering the specific characteristics of this demographic. METHODS: A comprehensive concept analysis was undertaken using Walker & Avant's method as a framework. FINDINGS: A systematic search across seventeen databases yielded 29 relevant studies for inclusion. Through analysis, we identified 15 antecedents, 3 attributes, and 7 consequents associated with IHL in older adults. CONCLUSIONS: The concept analysis brought clarity to the understanding of IHL within older adults, facilitating the refinement of a diagnosis proposal. This process was instrumental in establishing a diagnostic structure that accounts for the unique needs and challenges faced by older adults. IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSING PRACTICE: The structured diagnosis derived from the concept analysis provides a solid theoretical foundation for nurses specializing in Gerontology. By tailoring care interventions to address the specific requirements of older adults, this framework enhances the quality of nursing practice and contributes to improved patient outcomes in geriatric care settings.

RESUMO
PURPOSE: To identify the prevalence of the nursing diagnosis of compromised end-of-life syndrome in patients in end-of-life care. METHODS: This is a clinical validation based on a cross-sectional epidemiological clinical study conducted at the National Cancer Institute in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The defining characteristics of a syndrome diagnosis were identified, defined as a "subset of nursing diagnoses," using sensitivity and specificity measures through the application of latent class statistical methods. FINDINGS: The statistical results revealed seven nursing diagnoses characterizing the syndrome: imbalanced nutrition: less than body requirements, nausea, anxiety, ineffective breathing pattern, disturbed sleep pattern, ineffective thermoregulation, and fatigue. Compromised end-of-life syndrome was present in 76% of the sample. CONCLUSION: The study demonstrated the presence of compromised end-of-life syndrome in most end-of-life patients from the sample. IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSING PRACTICE: Recognizing the presence of the syndrome diagnosis enables nurses to have efficient and effective clinical reasoning for implementing the nursing process in palliative care. CAAE Number: 85415618.0.3001.5274.

RESUMO
PURPOSE: This article describes a theorizing strategy that integrates the components of classifications or terminologies with elements of grand or middle-range theories. METHODS: The source of metatheoretical data to support the strategy was the levels of theories by Dickoff et al. (1968). Terminological data sources were professional classifications and terminologies. FINDINGS: The authors synthesized data and philosophical, metatheoretical, theoretical, and terminological knowledge from primary sources on the subject to construct arguments and demonstrate suitable links. CONCLUSIONS: The proposal presented in this article of a strategy for building theories integrates theories and classifications or standardized nomenclatures. It applies levels of theorization: scrutiny of phenomena, description, conceptualization, naming, relationship, modeling, and operationalization to achieve higher levels of explanatory, predictive, and prescriptive properties on generated theory. IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSING PRACTICE: The implications for practice and research are connected to the theorizing strategy proposed in this article. We assume that using professional language at all levels of theorization can ensure that the concepts generated are closer to clinical practice.

This scoping review aims to map the dimensions encompassing the low health literacy (HL) of older adults, describing their respective causes and consequences. A three-step search strategy was conducted using 16 databases from nine portals and reference lists. Of the 4,259 identified studies, 2,845 were screened and 29 (1%) were included. Studies were published between 1999 and 2021, most of them in English (86.2%), from the American continent (48.3%) and with observational design (86.2%). Four dimensions encompassing the low HL of older adults were mapped: (1) patient dimension, (2) healthcare system dimension, (3) social/economic dimension, and (4) health condition dimension. This review highlights specific dimensions encompassing the low literacy in older adults with evidence about its causes and consequences. These results can guide future research and evidence-based practice involving HL of older adults.

PURPOSE: To validate the content nursing diagnosis "Readiness for enhanced healthy aging." METHODS: Descriptive, methodological study of diagnostic content validation, using the Fehring model. The sample consisted of 74 nurses experts in gerontology, with knowledge in NANDA-I nursing diagnoses. FINDINGS: The title, one definition, and the three defining characteristics proposed for the diagnosis were validated, as well as the suggestion of domain and location class in NANDA-I Taxonomy II. The Diagnostic Content Validity Index was 0.81. CONCLUSIONS: The validation of the diagnostic content by experts was fundamental for adequacy of the elements of the proposed diagnosis, which supported the elaboration of the diagnostic framework for submission to the NANDA-I taxonomy. IMPLICATION FOR NURSING PRACTICE: The diagnosis "Readiness for enhanced healthy aging" can help nurses understand the phenomenon of "Healthy Aging" and, consequently, will support the planning and implementation of interventions aimed at promoting the health of the elderly population and those in the aging process. In addition, this diagnosis will offer nurses the opportunity to rethink health promotion strategies in their care plan, making a commitment to the population regarding the promotion of healthy aging, as recommended by the Word Health Organization.

OBJECTIVES: to analyze the Systematization of Nursing Care conceptual maturation from the perspective of pragmatic utility. METHODS: a concept analysis study. The stages were: select the concept; elaborate analytical questions; comprehensively review the literature; and determine concept structural components. Sixty-one documents were analyzed after a search carried out until October 2019. RESULTS: four temporal periods of contextual changes have occurred since the emergence of ideas of a systematization in the 1960s. This first lasted until 1990. It was followed by those from 1990 to 2002, from 2002 to 2009 and from 2009 onwards. Partial conceptual maturity was identified, operationalization over the years, based on multiple definitions, and, currently, a concept of Systematization of Nursing Care with managerial and organizational attributes. CONCLUSIONS: the concept of Systematization of Nursing Care is partially mature, presents multiple definitions, being operationalized in uncertain connections with other concepts.

BACKGROUND: The COVID-19 pandemic received widespread media coverage due to its novelty, an early lack of data, and the rapid rise in deaths and cases. This excessive coverage created a secondary "infodemic" that was considered to be a serious public and mental health problem by the World Health Organization and the international scientific community. The infodemic particularly affected older individuals, specifically those who are vulnerable to misinformation due to political positions, low interpretive and critical analysis capacity, and limited technical-scientific knowledge. Thus, it is important to understand older people's reaction to COVID-19 information disseminated by the media and the effect on their lives and mental health. OBJECTIVE: We aimed to describe the profile of exposure to COVID-19 information among older Brazilian individuals and the impact on their mental health, perceived stress, and the presence of generalized anxiety disorder (GAD). METHODS: This cross-sectional, exploratory study surveyed 3307 older Brazilians via the web, social networks, and email between July 2020 and March 2021. Descriptive analysis and bivariate analysis were performed to estimate associations of interest. RESULTS: Major proportions of the 3307 participants were aged 60 to 64 years (n=1285, 38.9%), female (n=2250, 68.4%), and married (n=1835, 55.5%) and self-identified as White (n=2364, 71.5%). Only 295 (8.9%) had never started or completed a basic education. COVID-19 information was mainly accessed on television (n=2680, 81.1%) and social networks (n=1943, 58.8%). Television exposure was ≥3 hours in 1301 (39.3%) participants, social network use was 2 to 5 hours in 1084 (32.8%) participants, and radio exposure was ≥1 hour in 1223 (37%) participants. Frequency of exposure to social networks was significantly associated with perceived stress (P=.04) and GAD (P=.01). A Bonferroni post hoc test revealed significantly different perceived stress in participants who were exposed to social networks for 1 hour (P=.04) and those who had no exposure (P=.04). A crude linear regression showed that "some" social media use (P=.02) and 1 hour of exposure to social media (P<.001) were associated with perceived stress. Adjusting for sociodemographic variables revealed no associations with this outcome variable. In a crude logistic regression, some social media use (P<.001) and 2 to 5 hours of exposure to social media (P=.03) were associated with GAD. Adjusting for the indicated variables showed that some social network use (P<.001) and 1 hour (P=.04) and 2 to 5 hours (P=.03) of exposure to social media were associated with GAD. CONCLUSIONS: Older people, especially women, were often exposed to COVID-19-related information through television and social networks; this affected their mental health, specifically GAD and stress. Thus, the impact of the infodemic should be considered during anamnesis for older people, so that they can share their feelings about it and receive appropriate psychosocial care.
RESUMO
This is a reflective theoretical essay, with the objective of reporting the experience of the United States and the first steps of Brazil in the training process of advanced practice nurses. The historical trajectory of two traditional graduate programs in the professional modality is described, one from Brazil and one from the United States. Both curriculum models highlight specific training disciplines of nursing practice, the thesis and DNP project, consisting of implementation studies. We concluded that both countries are still making progress in nursing education and practice and are working to collaborate to form the highest level of nursing education and practice.

PURPOSE: This study aimed to develop the nursing diagnosis concept "compromised end-of-life syndrome" in palliative care. METHODS: The authors used the integrative strategy by Meleis to develop the concept in this study and identifying clinical indicators from a literature review. For data organization, we applied the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Metanalysis (PRISMA). FINDINGS: Some clusters of unpleasant signs and symptoms in palliative care patients at the end of life, such as pain, dyspnea, depression, constipation, and anxiety, were identified. Through conceptualization, the authors propose a new nursing diagnosis, "compromised end-of-life syndrome." The manuscript includes a model case of a patient with nursing diagnosis syndrome as a clinical example. CONCLUSIONS: Simultaneous patterns of signs and symptoms present in the literature reinforce the utility of the proposition of end-of-life syndrome as a nursing diagnostic construct. IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSING PRACTICE: The concept development related to patients' unpleasant signs and symptoms critically ill at palliative care supports the proposition of a new nursing diagnosis relevant to selecting adequate nursing interventions and nursing outcomes.

Teleconsultation can be classified as an advanced practice nursing that requires nurses' clinical reasoning based on a consistent theoretical framework to use in the nursing process. Our study conducted a theoretical-reflective analysis, based on Callista Roy's Adaptation Model of Nursing and Chick-Meleis' Transition Theory, about the contribution of teleconsultation as an advanced practice nursing in the care of older adults with chronic diseases during the COVID-19 pandemic. We reflect on this in two moments: "nursing theories and dealing with COVID-19" and "ways of adapting to new care models and advanced practice nursing," based on communication and information technologies. The worsening of the pandemic in Brazil changed life cycles, health/disease and organizational processes, demanding the development of an adaptive-transactional state by users and health care providers. Thus, information and communication technologies combined with advanced practice nursing can relieve social distancing and its repercussions on health care.

OBJECTIVES: to model the process of promoting healthy aging from the conceptual analysis proposed by Walker and Avant and Nola Pender's Health Promotion Model. METHODS: this is a descriptive and theoretical study, with a qualitative approach. Elements resulting from conceptual analysis were used to model a healthy aging promotion process based on Nola Pender's Health Promotion Model. RESULTS: in conceptual analysis, seven antecedents, seven attributes and three consequences of the concept of healthy aging were identified. FINAL CONSIDERATIONS: the proposed Health Promotion Model represents a structure that in an instrumental way can guide the nursing process application in gerontological clinical practice. This can guide nurses in identifying diagnoses, establishing outcomes and implementing interventions aimed at promoting the elderly's health.
