Introduction: venipuncture is an attribution procedure of the nursing team and stands out among the essential technologies to ensure the survival and therapy of acute/chronic childhood comorbidities. Objectified to discuss the social representations of nursing professionals and caregivers about peripheral venipuncture performed in hospitalized children. Materials and methods: research outlined in the procedural and structural approaches of the Theory of Social Representations carried out in pediatrics at a general hospital in Minas Gerais in April/September 2018. Sociodemographic data were collected and treated by descriptive statistics; free evocation of non-hierarchical words analyzed prototypically and lexicographically and; indepth individual interviews that underwent content analysis. All ethical and legal aspects are met. All ethical and legal aspects are met. Results: the representations about the puncture, according to the nursing professionals, were structured on the difficulties in performing the procedure and the insertion of the mother in shared care and for the companions had a negative impact on their psychological condition. Discussions: the nursing professionals' social representations of venipuncture were reduced to catheter insertion techniques, neglecting family-centered care, which in turn represented the feelings of seeing the punctured child. Conclusions: the representational approximations/distinctions identified between the subgroups about puncture in children contributed with reflections pointing to the need for a sociocultural and humanized resizing of nursing care.

Objective: To identify the conditioning factors, facilitators and inhibitors in the transition of family members to the role of family caregivers of a dependent elderly person at home and the nursing interventions necessary for a healthy transition. Methods: It is an integrative literature review carried out in the Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System onLine (MEDLINE) databases via PubMed, Latin American and Caribbean in Health Sciences (LILACS) and Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature (CINAHL) in January and February 2020. Results: After the evaluation, 23 articles were selected because they answered the research question and 374 were excluded. The research results were organized into three categories: "conditions that inhibit the healthy transition when becoming a caregiver for a dependent elderly", "conditions that facilitate the healthy transition when becoming a caregiver for a dependent elderly" and; "Therapeutic nursing interventions for a healthy transition". Conclusion: The transition process of a family member to the role of family caregiver for a dependent elderly person is extremely complex. It requires structured support, so that the period of instability does not last. With therapeutic nursing interventions, it is possible for the family member to achieve mastery of the transition and stability. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Objective: To identify the effect of the organizational culture on patient safety in the hospital context. Materials and methods: A systematic review, without meta-analysis, registered in PROSPERO with number CRD42020162981. Cross-sectional and observational studies were selected that assessed the safety environment and safety culture published between 2014 and 2020 in journals indexed in the EMBASE, Latin American and Caribbean Literature in Health Sciences (Literatura Latinoamericana e do Caribe em Ciências da Saúde, LILACS) via the Virtual Health Library (Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde, BVS), Medline (International Literature in Health Sciences) via PubMed, and Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature (CINAHL). Results: The findings show that a positive safety environment exerts a beneficial effect on the safety culture, favors the notification of events, and enables improvements in the quality of health care. Conclusions: The effective interaction between safety culture and organizational culture is still scarce in the literature. Most of the studies carried out investigate the situational diagnosis and little progress is made in terms of deepening the implications for the professional practice and the repercussions for the safety of hospitalized patients.

The scenario was the pediatric sector of a hospital in Minas Gerais. 22 nursing professionals and 58 companions participated. Data collected from sociodemographic characterization and individual in-depth interview, recorded from guiding questions, between April and September 2018. Statistical and content analysis was performed with SPSS 24 and Nvivo Pró-11® software. Results: According to Neuman's representational dimensions and stressors, categories related to impacting objects were identified; determinant information and behaviors regarding the procedure. Conclusion: The need for a redimensioning of nursing performance in the face of the present stressors was identified. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Background: Hospital drug therapy has the potential for incidents, thus it is necessary to identify situations that may compromise patient safety. Objective: To investigate potential drug-drug interactions caused by the overlapping of medications planned by nurses in the patients' prescriptions at a hospital inpatient unit. Methodology: Descriptive, cross-sectional study of documentary analysis with a quantitative approach, of 260 prescriptions for adult patients. Potential drug- interactions were identified using the Drug Interaction Checker (Medscape®). Results: A total of 3066 doses were analyzed, with a concentration of 4 schedules, showing an institutional standardization of schedules. The omission error rate was 5.44%. Drug-drug interactions of moderate severity were more frequent, especially lopinavir/clonazepam and diazepam/tramadol combinations. Conclusion: Omission errors and interactions can be minimized with tools to support clinical decision and reconfiguration of the work process. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Objective: To discuss the applicability of the Nursing Activities Score (NAS) in the light of the Comfort Theory, relating the range of care areas described in this instrument to the comfort contexts proposed in Kolcaba's theory. Methodology: theoretical study, critical analysis, based on the principles of Kolcaba comfort theory. Reflection: the activities evaluated by the NAS are congruent with the contexts of comfort proposed in the Kolcaba theory, and can contribute to the promotion of comfort. It is noted, however, that there are fewer items to evaluate the sociocultural, psycho-spiritual and environmental contexts. Most activities value the organic and biological needs of patients. Considerations: Although the activities of the NAS are consistent with the comfort contexts proposed by Kolcaba, it cannot be said that the care provided will be fully compatible with the theoretical assumptions, requiring further studies for clinical validation.

A detailed review was conducted of the literature on models evaluating the effectiveness of integrated and coordinated care networks for the older population. The search made use of the following bibliographic databases: Pubmed, The Cochrane Library, LILACS, Web of Science, Scopus and SciELO. Twelve articles on five different models were included for discussion. Analysis of the literature showed that the services provided were based on primary care, including services within the home. Service users relied on the integration of primary and hospital care, day centers and in-home and social services. Care plans and case management were key elements in care continuity. This approach was shown to be effective in the studies, reducing the need for hospital care, which resulted in savings for the system. There was reduced prevalence of functional loss and improved satisfaction and quality of life on the part of service users and their families. The analysis reinforced the need for change in the approach to health care for older adults and the integration and coordination of services is an efficient way of initiating this change.
