Objectives: Check the reliability and validity of Breastfeeding SelfEfficacy Scale -Short Form (BSES-SF) in Brazilian adolecent puerperal mothers who have recently given birth; and evaluate the association of scores of the BSES-SF with the socioeconomic and obstetric variables of the studied population.Methods: Methodological and quantitative study developed in a public maternity in Fortaleza involving 79 adolescent puerperal mothers. The BSES-SF and a form with socioeconomic and obstetric variables were used. Data were analyzed using the SPSS program, considering the Cronbach's Alpha (α) as a measure of reliability, and Pearson's correlation, with significance of 5%. Results:The BSES-SF is a reliable and valid measure (α = 0.807). The teenagers proved to be confident about the practice of breastfeeding (56.15 points). Only education level showed significant association with maternal self-efficacy of adolescents in breastfeeding (p = 0.032). Conclusion:The BSES-SF is a safe and effective tool in the detection of self-efficacy of adolescent mothers in breastfeeding, favoring their assistance in the process of breastfeeding and, hence, the reduction of early weaning.
Objetivo: objetivou-se analisar as evidências científicas sobre o uso do mel no tratamento de feridas em seres humanos, por meio de uma revisão sistemática da literatura. Método: trata-se de uma revisão sistemática baseado no referencial de Pereira, utilizando-se a base de dados eletrônicos da Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde (BVS), indexadas na base de dados da Literatura Internacional em Ciências da Saúde (MEDLINE) e Literatura Latino-Americana e do Caribe em Ciências da Saúde (LILACS). Resultados: os cinco estudos analisados envolveram o uso do mel nas seguintes situações: em comparação ao tratamento convencional; em feridas oncológicas; em úlceras do pé diabético; e em úlceras venosas. Conclusão: o uso do mel no tratamento de feridas apresenta vários efeitos satisfatórios, entretanto há necessidade de mais estudos para garantir uma prática mais segura.
