Objective: To develop and validate an educational technology venous ulcers care. Method: Methodological study conducted in five steps: Situational diagnosis; literature review; development of texts, illustrations and layout; apparent and content validity by the Content Validity Index, assessment of Flesch Readability Index; and pilot testing. Results: The developed technology was a type of booklet entitled Booklet for Venous Ulcers Care, consisting of seven topics: Diet and food intake, walking and light exercise, resting with elevated leg, bandage care, compression therapy, family support, and keeping healthy habits. The apparent validity revealed minimal agreement of 85.7% in the clarity and comprehensibility. The total content validity index was 0.97, the Flesch Readability Index was 75%, corresponding to the reading "fairly easy". The pilot test showed that 100% of people with venous ulcers evaluated the text and the illustrations as understandable, as appropriate. Conclusion: The educational technology proved to be valid for the appearance and content with potential for use in clinical practice.
Objective: to identify competencies related to health promotion targeting homebound older people, as they appear in the literature. Method: systematic review using the LILACS, Scopus, CINAHL, PubMed and Cochrane Library databases. The search was performed in November 2017. Selected articles were analyzed according to nine competency domains: enable change; advocate for health; mediate through partnership; communication; leadership; assessment; planning; implementation, and evaluation and research. Results: nine clinical trials were included. All health promotion competency domains were identified in the reviewed research interventions, performed with homebound older people. Conclusion: studies showed that the employed treatments were beneficial for the homebound older population. Interventions based on health promotion competencies were positively identified, and are linked to an effective and high-quality health care practice.

Objetivo: evidenciar a efetividade dos métodos não farmacológicos utilizados durante o trabalho de parto a partir do discurso das puérperas. Método: estudo transversal com abordagem qualitativa, realizada com oito puérperas em um hospital de atenção terciária localizado no município de Maracanaú. Os dados foram coletados em novembro de 2019 por meio de entrevista semiestruturada e analisados de acordo com a técnica de Bardin. Resultados: obteve-se por resultados da pesquisa a divisão dos achados em quatro categorias, sendo elas: 1: Métodos não farmacológicos utilizados no trabalho de parto e parto, 2: Percepção das puérperas sobre a efetividade dos métodos não farmacológicos, 3: Avaliação da presença do acompanhante no trabalho de parto como suporte para utilização dos métodos não farmacológicos. Conclusão: a partir dos discursos das puérperas foi demonstrado em sua totalidade que os métodos não farmacológicos foram ditos como eficazes, uma vez que essas técnicas quando aplicadas traziam consigo uma sensação de relaxamento e consequentemente diminuição da dor, além do aceleramento do processo de parturição.
