Effectiveness of teaching strategies on the development of critical thinking in undergraduate nursing students: a meta-analysis To evaluate the effectiveness of teaching strategies used for development of critical thinking (CT) in undergraduate nursing students. Method: Systematic review with meta-analysis based on the recommendations of the Joanna Briggs Institute. Searches were conducted in the following databases: PubMed, CINAHL, EMBASE, Web of Science, SCOPUS, LILACS, Cochrane CENTRAL, PsycINFO, ERIC, and a database of theses from four continents. The initial selection and evaluation of studies and assessment of methodological quality was performed by two reviewers independently. Results: Twelve randomized clinical trials were included in the study. In the metaanalysis of the four studies included that evaluated the strategy of problem-based learning (PBL), compared to lectures, the effectiveness of PBL was demonstrated with statistical significance (SMD = 0.21 and 95% CI = 0.01 to 0.42; p = 0.0434) for the development of CT in undergraduate nursing students, and the studies were homogeneous (chisquare = 6.10, p = 0.106). Conclusion: The effectiveness of PBL was demonstrated in the increase of overall CT scores. Further studies need to be conducted in order to develop, implement and evaluate teaching strategies that are guided in high methodological rigor, and supported in theoretical models of teaching and learning.

Objective: to describe the theoretical construction process of nursing process support documents in COVID-19 care scenarios. Methods: an experience report of the joint activity of the Brazilian Nursing Process Research Network (Rede de Pesquisa em Processo de Enfermagem) composed of Higher Education and Health Institution researchers in Brazil. Results: five instruments were organized collectively, involving the elements of nursing practice (nursing diagnoses, outcomes and interventions) in assistance for community; for patients (with suspected or mild, moderate, and critical COVID-19 and residents in Nursing Homes); for nursing workers’ health support, also subsidizing registration and documentation during the COVID-19 pandemic. Final considerations: valuing the phenomena manifested by families/communities, patients and health professionals is essential for early detection, intervention, and prevention of diseases.

Objective: to elaborate the conceptual and theoretical-empirical structure, based on the application of Roy's Adaptation model, to guide the development of a controlled clinical trial aimed at assessing the effectiveness of a nursing intervention program to promote the adaptation of family caregivers with caregiver role strain.Method: theoretical study. The conceptual structure was developed in three phases: development of a comprehensive understanding of the conceptual model, literature review and construction of the conceptual and theoretical-empirical structure itself.Results: the application process demonstrated its consistency in the design of an intervention program for family caregivers of chronic patients, to be tested in a controlled clinical trial. The indicators of adaptation were the reduced score on the caregiver tension scale and the increased perception of wellbeing and quality of life. Conclusion:Roy's model serves as an important guide for nursing research intended to test nursing interventions that favor the wellbeing of family caregivers. DESCRIPTORS:Caregivers. Nursing.

MODELO DE ADAPTAÇÃO EM UM ENSAIO CLÍNICO CONTROLADO COM CUIDADORES FAMILIARES DE PESSOAS COM DOENÇAS CRÔNICAS RESUMOObjetivo: elaborar a estrutura conceitual e teórico-empírica, a partir da aplicação do modelo de Adaptação de Roy, para nortear o desenvolvimento de um ensaio clinico controlado que avaliará a efetividade de um programa de intervenção de enfermagem para promover a adaptação de cuidadores familiares com tensão do papel de cuidador.Método: estudo teórico. A estrutura conceitual foi desenvolvida seguindo três passos: o desenvolvimento de uma compreensão abrangente do modelo conceitual, a revisão da literatura e a construção da estrutura conceitual e teórico-empírica, propriamente dita.Resultados: o processo de aplicação mostrou-se consistente no delineamento de um programa de intervenção para cuidadores familiares de pessoas com doenças crônicas, a ser testado num ensaio clínico controlado. Os indicadores de adaptação foram a diminuição da pontuação na escala de tensão do papel de cuidador e o aumento da percepção de bem-estar e qualidade de vida.Conclusão: o modelo de Roy configura-se como um guia importante para a pesquisa de enfermagem que pretende testar intervenções de enfermagem que favoreçam o bem-estar de cuidadores familiares.
