This descriptive study aimed to verify the inclusion of subjects about informatics in undergraduate nursing programs at Brazilian (state and federal) public education institutions.The programs were located through the e-MEC system. The Internet was used to search for the curricula of the campuses offering the nursing program and identify subjects related to informatics. Eighty-one higher education institutions and 123 campuses were located.Only 100 campuses provided the curriculum on the Internet, 35 of which offered the subject. The highest proportion occurred in the Northeast (46.1%) and the lowest in the North (8.6%). The subject is mostly offered as an elective discipline (57%) in the first and second year (80%), with an average workload of 47 classroom hours. The low supply of this undergraduate subject goes against job market trends and the National Curriculum A maior proporção ocorreu na Região Nordeste (46,1%) e, a menor, na Região Norte (8,6%). A disciplina é oferecida em maior frequência como eletiva (57%), no primeiro e segundo ano do curso (80%) e com carga horária média de 47 horas-aula. A baixa oferta da disciplina na graduação contraria as tendências do mercado de trabalho e das Diretrizes Curriculares Nacionais do curso de graduação em Enfermagem.Descritores: Informática em Enfermagem; Educação Superior; Currículo.

The methodology of education chosen for this course was the Case-based Learning, exploring the characteristic of the collaborative learning for which 23 nurses were invited, being that 21 had initiated the course and 11 had concluded it. The course was evaluated by professionals with experience in Distance Education and Intensive Care Unit, that they had considered the adjusted course, but that, in general, it needed small reformulations.

Objective: To develop an application on primary nursing care for users with diabetes mellitus and to assess its usability in the light of the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology. Materials and methods: A methodological study, which used a quantitative and cross-sectional approach, based on the Systematic Design of Instruction method. The product was validated for usability by 11 specialist nurses, using the System Usability Scale questionnaire, based on the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology 2 by Venkatesh, Thong and Xu. Results: The application was developed through open and free frameworks, based on the updated content of the Nursing Protocol in Primary Care on Diabetes Mellitus, plus the International Classification of Nursing Practices in Public Health. In assessing usability, the application reached a score of 90 points, being classified on a scale of best achievable, with dimensions that ground the theoretical constructs. Conclusions: The technology named Diabetes em Foco (Diabetes in focus in English) is promising to improve and advance theoretical and practical knowledge, in addition to quick and easy access to the protocol, timely support for decision-making and strengthening the systematization of nursing care in primary health care.

We conclude that nurses have participated in telehealth services as members of the audience, as lecturers, and as teleconsultants. We also consider that the active participation of nurses could bring benefits to the quality of the telehealth services provided to the community. These practices could help predict how healthcare will look like in the next few years.
