ABSTRACT Objectives: to identify, in the scientific literature, the care that should be provided to individuals with drug-resistant tuberculosis by nurses in primary health care. Methods: integrative review, using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses study selection flowchart. Data collection was conducted in November 2022, across ten databases. Results: six studies emphasized that nurses should perform directly observed treatment; two highlighted the importance of integrated care management between tuberculosis and human immunodeficiency virus; two demonstrated comprehensive nursing consultation using the nursing process; one emphasized person-centered care, with discharge planning and improved hospital communication with primary health care services. Final Considerations: the care that nurses should provide to individuals with drug-resistant tuberculosis in primary health care, for care resolution, is evidence-based.

Devido à pandemia pela COVID-19, houve a necessidade de adaptação nas atividades de promoção à saúde, assim, o Projeto de Extensão Vida Ativa, diante da impossibilidade de sua aplicação presencial, realizou adaptações para ser desenvolvido de forma remota. Objetivo: Relatar as ações desenvolvidas pelos alunos e professores do Projeto Vida Ativa, para pessoas idosas durante o período de isolamento social ocasionado pelo Covid-19. Metodologia: Trata-se de relato de experiência das ações desenvolvidas pelo Projeto de Extensão Vida Ativa durante a pandemia pela COVID-19. Foram realizadas atividades de forma remota pelas redes sociais WhatsApp® e Facebook®. Resultados: Os idosos participantes do projeto relataram melhorias propiciadas pelas ações e como elas influenciaram positivamente a qualidade de vida dos mesmos durante o isolamento social. Os acadêmicos participantes do projeto, alcançaram maior envolvimento com os idosos participantes, proporcionando interação dialógica em formato digital. São realizadas pelos alunos apresentações dos resultados de pesquisas de forma online em eventos científicos. Conclusão: As atividades desenvolvidas de forma remota no projeto proporcionaram repercussão positiva na manutenção funcional e melhora da qualidade de vida dos idosos e impacto na formação do aluno promovendo os princípios da extensão: indissociabilidade, interdisciplinaridade, interação dialógica, impacto na formação do aluno e social. Portanto, ações de extensão em saúde de forma remota devem ser estimuladas, pois promovem a aproximação da comunidade com o conhecimento acadêmico.

The disease COVID-19 caused by the coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 translates, in individuals affected by this virus, from mild respiratory symptoms, sometimes imperceptible to serious respiratory and multiorgan implications, especially if associated with risk groups such as people with hypertension, diabetes or those with more than 65 years, among others. For the most severely affected patients, hospitalization in intensive care units due to severe respiratory distress syndrome may be a reality, with increased hospitalization time compared to normal pneumonia, and which will translate into motor and functional sequelae where the physiotherapist will have an essential role to develop. In any of the different stages of evolution of this disease (critical and acute, post-acute, ambulatory, and home), the physiotherapist acts in order to restore maximum functional capacity in individuals affected by COVID-19. The purpose of this text is thus to show the role of the physiotherapist in each of these intervention stages. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Introduction - The benefits of physical exercise in cancer survivors have been reported, although it's practice remains low, becoming important the acknowledgement of the factors that promote the motivation and adhesion of physical exercise in this population. Objectives - To identify the preferences about programming and counseling of physical exercise inside a population-based sample of Portuguese women who have survived breast cancer. We also intend to investigate the influence of demographic and medical variables in those preferences. Method - A questionnaire was applied to a non-probabilistic sequential sample of 26 women that have survived breast cancer. Results - Our sample was mainly composed by women aged between 45 and 62, married or in a cohabitation state, with basic instruction, employed and with a Body Mass Index (BMI)> 24.4. Most of them have had radical mastectomy for at least one month, had the Stage I of the tumor, and had done chemotherapy as an adjuvant treatment and some of them were practicing post-surgery physical therapy. The majority of participants showed interest in receiving counseling, felt able to participate in an exercise program, preferred receiving face-to-face counseling, at the hospital and with other cancer patients. The exercise should be supervised and with a moderate intensity. Walking was their preferred choice of exercise. It was not statistically possible to establish the relationship between demographic and medical variables and those preferences. Conclusion - Some results are in agreement with previous studies; however, others diverge from these. The results obtained can provide important information for future construction of exercise programs for this population. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
