The Surgical Center is a restricted environment of high complexity, where the professionals who work in it deal with exhausting activities, as well as complex and unexpected situations, which are potential physical and psychological stressors, and can interfere in the quality of life. This is an exploratory, descriptive, quantitative qualitative approach, with the objective of analyzing the workload of nursing professionals working at the Surgical Center and the repercussions on the quality of life, submitted and approved by the Research Ethics Committee of the Health Sciences Center of the Federal University of Paraíba (CCS/UFPB), according to the protocol n° 0156/16, CAAE: 55298616.3.0000.5188. The sample consisted of 15 nurses of both sexes who work in a Philanthropic Hospital located in the municipality of João Pessoa/PB. A questionnaire was applied to characterize the participants' profile, an interview script with data related to work overload and WHOQOL-Bref. It was found that 80% of the participants were women; the average age was 37.8 years. In the sample, 60% were neither satisfied nor dissatisfied with their quality of life, and 33% stated they were dissatisfied with their quality of health. It is concluded that the results obtained provided a more reflective analy-

Objective: Investigate whether the Surgical Safety Checklist -LVCS, used by nurses in the Surgical Center is correlated with what is recommended by the World Health Organization. Method:Descriptive exploratory study of quantitative-qualitative approach with 10 nurses, using questionnaire and form. CEP/HULW, CAAE: 55252216.0.0000.5183.Results: LVCS meets patient needs, but is not being used properly due to difficulties during its application. It was highlighted the importance of training and training about this protocol. Discussion:The LVCS is the responsibility of the team, requiring multiprofessional work during its application to avoid errors. Thus, continuing education is the tool for the implementation of training. Conclusion:The LVCS is in line with what the WHO recommends, however, nurses record in the medical record the information of the actions that they develop, but affirm that the responsibility of the registry is of all the professionals and that the nursing, medical and anesthetic team, in spite of developing their actions, does not intend to contribute in the aspects related to the items contained in the LVCS that correspond to their activities, causing a loss in obtaining reliable data.
Goal: To analyze the possibilities and limits of multiprofessional care in the attention to psychiatric emergencies. Method:It is an analytical study of the type integrative review of the comprehensive literature. Searches were conducted in the Latin American and Caribbean Literature (LILACS) and Nursing Database (BDENF) databases and in the ScieLo Virtual Library, with the use of Descriptors in Health Sciences (DECs): "Emergency Services, Psychiatric", "Forensic Psychiatry", "Psychiatric Rehabilitation", in the period from 2007 to 2017.Results: After data analysis, two thematic categories emerged: "Possibilities and limits in multiprofessional care for patients in crisis" and "The continuity of care to the patient in crisis by the multiprofessional team". The studies point out fragility in the management of the multiprofessional team of care to the patients in psychiatric crisis. Therefore, in the substitutive services to the psychiatric hospital, it is necessary IntroductionEmergency mental health situations refer to any disturbance of thinking, feelings or actions that require immediate intervention to protect the person or third parties from the risk of death. Among the most frequently encountered emergencies are suicidal behavior, aggressive behavior and disturbances in thinking and perception, with 20% of those assisted in emergency mental health services having suicide problems and 10% violent behavior [1].The violent and aggressive behavior expressed by the client denotes fear, anxiety and insecurity in those around him, including professionals. However, the culturally constructed fear of society towards all people in the psychiatric setting is disproportionate to the few that, in fact, constitute a risk to the social environment. Excessive fear in professionals may impair clinical judgment and lead to premature and large-scale use of sedative medications and physical restraints, such as bed restraints [1].Mental health emergencies are related to the various evolutionary and accidental crises related to human experience. But what specifies an emergency in mental health is the manifestation of behavior as a consequence of a situation in which the person is and for which his general performance is seriously impaired and the individual becomes incapable of assuming personal responsibilities [2].Emergency mental health refers to a situation of altered thinking (delirium) or actions (aggressive acts) that demand rapid care. These changes are associated with the risk of death, such as in suicide or in patients with violent behavior, or the situation of mental alterations resulting from the use of psychoactive substances or physical diseases, which must provide interventions for the reduction of sequelae. Thus, emergency is a set of contrasting emotional and practical interests, in which the patient and his/her crisis are only part and not the whole, and the health team must take into account all these possibilities at the time of evaluation [2].The approach to the person with mental disorder in an eme...
