Objective: To verify the effectiveness of the educational intervention through the evaluation of nurses’ knowledge about prevention of pressure injury. Method: A quasi-experimental study with a single group, carried out with 95 nurses from a teaching hospital in the interior of Minas Gerais, in August and September 2017. As a teaching strategy, the active methodology and hybrid teaching were used, based on the reference of the Method of the Arch of Charles Maguerez. Data were collected from a validated instrument, called the Pieper Knowledge Test, and analyzed by descriptive statistics and Student’s t-test with significance level of p <0.001. Results: The mean number of correct answers obtained by the nurses was 78.8% in the pre-test and 88.8% in the post-test, and the difference was statistically significant (p <0.001). Conclusion: The educational intervention developed was effective, since it contributed to the improvement of nurses’ knowledge.
OBJECTIVES: to characterize chronic pain in institutionalized elderly and verify the associated factors. METHOD: observational, cross-sectional and non-experimental study with a quantitative approach. The study participants were 124 elderly living in Long-Term Care Institutions for the Elderly (LTCIs) in a city in Minas Gerais (Brazil). Approval for the project was obtained from the Research Ethics Committee. The elderly's clinical and sociodemographic variables and pain-related aspects were assessed. The data were analyzed through descriptive statistics and bivariate analysis (chi-squared). RESULTS: the prevalence of chronic pain corresponded to 58.1%; for more than 10 years (26.4%); in lower limbs (31.9%); characterized as "twinges" (33.3%); 33.3% adopted medication treatment; the pain did not improve (41.7 %); or worsen (34.7 %). It was evidenced that elderly aged 60├ 70 old had 70% less chances of chronic pain than those aged 80 years and older (p=0.018). CONCLUSION: institutionalized elderly have a high prevalence of chronic pain, mainly in the lower limbs. No factors of pain improvement or worsening were identified and medication was evidenced as the preferred treatment. Age showed to be associated with the presence of pain. It is considered important to accomplish multiprofessional actions at the LTCIs to guide prevention and rehabilitation actions of the pain episodes in these elderly.
Objetivo: construir e validar um questionário sobre Ressuscitação Cardiopulmonar no adulto emSuporte Básico de Vida, com o uso do Desfibrilador Externo Automático, no ambiente hospitalar.Metodologia: pesquisa aplicada, realizada na Escola de Enfermagem de Ribeirão Preto daUniversidade de São Paulo, no período de janeiro de 2017 a março de 2018.

Foramaplicadas as regras do manual do Conselho Nacional de Examinadores Médicos e diretrizes daAmerican Heart Association. Utilizou-se estatística descritiva e análise de concordância interavaliadorespor AC1 de Gwet. Validado em relação à organização, objetividade e clareza.Resultados: questionário validado com 20 questões de Múltipla Escolha com concordância interavaliadores“quase perfeita”.Conclusão: o questionário mostrou-se válido para utilização como instrumento de avaliação sobreo assunto abordado.
Resumo OBJETIVO Construir e validar um objeto contemporâneo virtual de ensino, videoaula, sobre ressuscitação cardiopulmonar no adulto em suporte básico de vida com o uso do desfibrilador externo automático no ambiente hospitalar. MÉTODOS Trata-se de uma pesquisa aplicada, de produção tecnológica, com produção de vídeoaula de acordo com a trajetória metodológica proposta por Fleming, Reynolds e Wallace. Desenvolvido na Universidade do Estado de Minas Gerais e na Escola de Enfermagem de Ribeirão Preto no período de janeiro de 2017 a março de 2018. Participaram 16 enfermeiros expertises na área de urgência e emergência. Para concordância inter-avaliadores foi utilizado a estatística AC1 de Gwet. RESULTADOS A validação do roteiro/script e storyboard foi alcançada a concordância inter-avaliadores, de acordo com Landis e Kock, classificada em “concordância moderada”, com AC1=0,59 e p<0,0001. CONCLUSÕES A videoaula construída e validada neste estudo, representa importante estratégia contemporânea adequada para aplicação no processo de ensino-aprendizagem.
