The aim of this study was to translate and adapt the Self-Efficacy and Their Child's Level Asthma Control scale to Brazil's cultural reality and evaluate the content validity of the Portuguese version. A methodological study that followed the stages: initial translation into Portuguese language by two independent translators; translation synthesis; translation of the scale's synthesis back into its original English language (back-translation); pre-test of the final version with 30 parents/guardians and content validation. The pre-test evaluation led to modifications for the target population's better understanding. Content validity obtained by means of analysis of the scale by the committee of experts was considered adequate (CVI>0.80). The scale's application time with each participant ranged between 5-13 minutes. An increase in the scale's application in Brazil is recommended, with the aim of improving its psychometric properties, as well as obtaining parameters for control and management interventions in childhood asthma.

Objective: To evaluate the suitability of educational videos produced in Brazil that addressed aspects related to prevention and/or management of infant diarrhea according to content; language; graphic illustrations; stimulation for learning/motivation and cultural fit. Method: Documentary study, which evaluated six educational videos from an adapted and validated tool, the Suitability Assessment of Materials. Three nurses evaluated the videos. Data were processed using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences, version 17.0, and presented in tables and graphics. Results: It was found that 4 (66.6%) of the educational videos were classified as appropriate, ranging from 60% to 63.3% of full approval, and 2 (33.3%) were assessed as higher, reaching up to 83.3% to 90% approval. Considering the socioeconomic and cultural contexts of the videos to the audience, they assigned notes ranging from 6 to 9 in a rating ranging from 0, the minimum score, to 10, the highest score. Conclusion: The educational videos were considered adequate, with positive results about the content on the prevention and management of infant diarrhea, being appropriate for the target audience. As a result, greater credibility is ratified as the use thereof, since these resources can contribute to health promotion and prevention of diarrhea in children.

Objective: to verify the association between the classification of risk made by the nurses and the clinical conditions presented by children and adolescents. Methods: a cross -sectional study was carried out with 397 children/adolescents in the emergency room of a public secondary hospital. In the data collection, a formulary was used, containing sociodemographic and clinical data; and the Guideline for Acceptance with Risk Rating in Pediatrics. Results: there was no significant association between the socio-demographic characteristics of the children and risk classification. They were female, aged between one and five years and weight appropriate for the age group. There was a significant association (p<0.005) between risk ratings, risk discriminators (p=0.001), procedures performed (p<0.001) and patient's destination (p=0.013). Conclusion: the association between adopted risk classification and pediatric clinical variables confirms the degree of complexity presented by children/adolescents, favoring assertive clinical evaluation by the host nurse.

Métodos: estudo transversal, realizado com 397 crianças/ adolescentes na emergência de hospital público de nível secundário. Utilizaram-se, na coleta de dados, de formulário, contendo dados sociodemográficos e clínicos; e do Guia de Acolhimento com Classificação de Risco em Pediatria validado. Resultados: não houve associação significativa entre características sociodemográficas das crianças e classificação de risco. Predominaram crianças do sexo feminino, idade entre um e cinco anos e peso adequado para faixa etária. Houve associação significativa (p<0,005) entre classificações de risco adotadas, discriminadores de risco (p=0,001), procedimentos realizados (p<0,001) e destino do paciente (p=0,013). Conclusão: a associação entre classificação de risco adotada e variáveis clínicas pediátricas confirma o grau de complexidade apresentado por crianças/adolescentes, favorecendo avaliação clínica assertiva por enfermeiros no acolhimento.
