ABSTRACT Objectives: to identify mothers’ perceptions about caring for newborns in the home environment, from the perspective of complexity thinking. Methods: qualitative, exploratory and descriptive research, carried out between November/2022 and February/2023. Data were collected through individual interviews with 21 mothers from southern Brazil who cared for newborns at home and analyzed using the thematic analysis technique. Results: the four thematic axes resulting from the data analysis: Living amidst order and disorder; embracing singularities; dealing with the certain and the uncertain; support network in the (re)organizing process demonstrate that the mother caring for a newborn in their home environment experiences a distinct and plural adaptive process, which must be welcomed and understood by health professionals who work within the family environment. Final Considerations: the care of newborns in a home environment, in the perception of mothers, requires differentiated attention and a formal or informal support network that considers the unique specificities of each woman/mother in the personal, family and social spheres. Therefore, in addition to the social support network, it is important to rethink home intervention approaches.

Objectives: To share a concept analysis of social movement aimed at advancing its application to evidence uptake and sustainability in health-care. Methods: We applied Walker and Avant method to clarify the concept of social movement in the context of knowledge uptake and sustainability. Peer-reviewed and grey literature databases were systematically searched for relevant reports that described how social movement action led to evidence-based practice changes in health and community settings. Titles, abstracts and full texts were reviewed independently and in duplicate, resulting in 38 included articles. Results: Social movement action for knowledge uptake and sustainability can be defined as individuals, groups, or organizations that, as voluntary and intrinsically motivated change agents, mobilize around a common cause to improve outcomes through knowledge uptake and sustainability. The 10 defining attributes, three antecedents and three consequences that we identified are dynamic and interrelated, often mutually reinforcing each other to fortify various aspects of the social movement. Examples of defining attributes include an urgent need for action, collective action and collective identity. The concept analysis resulted in the development of the Social Movement Action Framework. Conclusions: Social movement action can provide a lens through which we view implementation science. Collective action and collective identity – concepts less frequently canvassed in implementation science literature – can lend insight into grassroots approaches to uptake and sustainability. Findings can also inform providers and change leaders on the practicalities of harnessing social movement action for real-world change initiatives. By mobilizing individuals, groups, or organizations through social movement approaches, they can engage as powered change agents and teams that impact the individual, organizational and health systems levels to facilitate knowledge uptake and sustainability.

Objetivo: identificar o que vem sendo produzido sobre educação em saúde para pessoa com câncer em tratamento com antineoplásico. Método: Trata-se de uma revisão integrativa da literatura, realizada nas bases de dados PubMed, Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde, Scientific Electronic Library Online e Literatura Latino-Americana e do Caribe em Ciências da Saúde. Foram utilizados os descritores “Neoplasia”, “Antineoplásico” e “Educação em Saúde” e MeSH Terms “Antineoplastic Agents” e “Health Education” na PubMed. Teve-se como critério de inclusão, artigos com texto completo, disponível na íntegra, disponíveis na modalidade online e gratuito, e publicados nos últimos cinco anos. O corpus do estudo foi composto por 11 artigos. Resultados: Os achados revelaram ações educativas majoritariamente desenvolvidas com adultos, no cenário hospitalar. Quanto as estratégias utilizadas, destaca-se o uso de informativos impressos, com ênfase sobre o tratamento e seus efeitos colaterais. Sendo que as práticas de educação em saúde mostraram-se positivas com relação à saúde do paciente. Considerações finais: Por fim, destaca-se a importância de ampliar o cenário e a faixa etária do público alvo para a realização de atividades de educação em saúde com pacientes oncológicos, a fim de contemplar crianças e adolescentes e os aspectos psicossociais do câncer.
