Meanings attributed by migrant women to nursing care during pregnancy to postpartum
Maternal health care for migrant women poses new challenges to countries
in the WHO European Region. Migrant women tend to have worse perinatal
health outcomes as a result of migration conditions, socioeconomic needs,
health status, language or health literacy. These women may manifest different
representations and cultural practices associated with motherhood that need to
be understood and respected during nursing care in the host country. The aim
was to explore the meanings attributed by migrant women to nursing interventions
implemented during prenatal care to postpartum period. Qualitative
study using Grounded Theory. Thirty interviews were conducted with pregnant
migrant women and mothers from various countries, between February 2015
to December 2016, in Primary Health Care. Emerging coding of data determined
the central category BUILDING TRUST, representative of the use of professional
skills and competencies to help migrant women gain confidence and expose
emotions, insecurities and needs: “Feeling recognized” highlights sensitivity
to cultural differences and transition experiences; “Explaining with simplicity”
by the clarity, simplicity, practical and grounded meaning, contributing to the
acquisition of skills in the exercise of motherhood and a quality of intercultural
communication; “Getting answer”, nurse acting in accordance with the needs
exposed by the Other, promoting autonomy, confidence and satisfaction. The
development of a trusting relationship has emerged as an essential component
of maternal care. The study results may contribute to knowledge and quality of
care indicators by showing the migrant client’s perspective on the care received.info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio
Quality of life of nurses in work context: a scoping review.
Scientific evidence emphasizes that the quality of care provided by nurses is influenced by several factors, such as interaction in the professional environment, remuneration, recognition, and appreciation of the function performed, in addition to factors such as health, leisure and affection that are directly related to the quality of life. The professional practice of nurses requires highly complex interventions and close human relationships, dealing with all types of emotions, including death. Considering nurses as a fundamental element in health organisations, there is a need to analyze their quality of life and challenge managers' reflection on the importance of nursing to develop strategies that favour quality of life. Objective: to map the scientific evidence on the quality of life of nurses in the work context. Methods: A Scoping Review based on the Joanna Briggs Institute (2020) with the question: What is the quality of life of nurses in the work context? The MeSH (2023) descriptors combined the search strategy: Quality of life AND Nurses* AND Work, according to Participants, Concept, and Context. Em-base data sources: EBSCOhost platform: CINAHL®, MedicLatina and MEDLINE, with defined limits: Full text and abstract available; Any type of study: (quantitative, qualitative, mixed); Language: English, Spanish and Portuguese. Results: In the eight articles selected, nurses have a lower quality of life due to a moderate level of happiness and negative feelings in providing care, high workload, ineffective management policies, unfair remuneration, scarcity of equipment and few opportunities for career development. After Covid-19, high levels of compassion satisfaction and moderate levels of burnout were found. Nurses who work rotating shifts are more likely to be overweight and have total and abdominal fat. Organizations can promote nurses' health by ensuring their participation in decision-making and promoting positive strategies to improve teamwork and establishing a support system for these professionals.info:eu-repo/semantics/draf
Adaptação portuguesa do questionário de coparentalidade: análise fatorial confirmatória e estudos de validade e fiabilidade
Evaluation of serum concentrations of total cholesterol in Pharmacy students of Instituto Politécnico de Bragança
Hypercholesterolemia is a factor involved in the development of atherosclerosis, which is related to cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, the two main causes of death in the world. The aim of the study was determined the prevalence of hypercholesterolemia in Pharmacy students from the Instituto Politécnico de Bragança (IPB) and described and analyze the risk factors associated.
From a random sample of four classes of the course of Pharmacy from IPB, were selected for this study two years (1º and 4º years), with 32 students in each class. The descriptive, cross-sectional and quantitative study was carried out by application of a screening of cholesterol levels, and with a self-completion questionnaire. The data were subjected to statistical treatment through the program SPSS 16.0.
This study found that the average of total cholesterol (TC) was 197.06 ± 43.542 mg/ dL. The men had lower levels of cholesterol (174.33 mg/ dL) than females (200.78 mg/ dL) indicating the sex has influence on the levels of cholesterol. Hypercholesterolemia was more prevalent at ages ≥ 20 years, with higher average for students attending the 4th year (203.53 mg/ dL) than those attending the 1st year (190.59 mg/ dL). Concerning food, only the consumption of sausages showed association with serum concentrations of TC. Aditionally, students who make meals at home have higher CT than those who make their meals elsewhere (200.49 and 183.62 mg/ dL, respectively), allowing to conclude that the lack of time for meals provides a power based on fast food, rich in cholesterol.
The high levels of TC obtained in young students alert the need for control the cholesterol levels and also take action with regard to food and physical exercise

o caso de enfermeiros portugueses que trabalham por turnos
Alguns cronobiologistas argumentam que a mais importante contribuição da
cronobiologia para o estudo da atividade humana no trabalho é a noção de variabilidade
das funções biológicas ao longo das 24 horas do dia. Isso faz com que os trabalhadores
tendam a responder diferentemente a uma mesma situação de trabalho, conforme o momento do dia em que ela ocorra. Com referência às repercussões sobre o impacto da inversão do ciclo vigília sono tais como fragmentação de sono diurno, De Martino e Cipolla-Neto (1999) relatam que, em ocupações como a enfermagem, em que o trabalho noturno exige estar vigilante neste período, nem sempre o sono diurno é reparador.
A presente pesquisa teve como objectivo analisar a variabilidade da função biológica
(sono) e comportamental ao longo do dia em enfermeiros que trabalham por turnos. O
estudo teve como participantes enfermeiros portugueses a trabalhar num hospital público de Lisboa, com base numa amostra intencional (72). Foram utilizados 5 questionários: para levantamento de dados sóciodemograficos; Avaliação do Ciclo Vigília-Sono (Diário de Sono); Questionário de Horne & Östberg (1976) para o cronotipo; Lista de Estados Emocionais Presentes (LEP) e Questionário Índice de Qualidade do Sono de Pittsburgh (PSQI).
Os principais resultados mostraram cronotipos de vários tipos, sendo o mais frequente
o tipo indiferente (64.62%). A analise da LEP indicou que a maioria dos enfermeiros tinha um estado emocional estável. A qualidade do sono foi de melhor qualidade (PSQI) para o grupo com idade abaixo de 30 anos do que no grupo acima dos 30 anos. O grupo de sujeitos com 30. Concluiu-se que as variáveis idade e rotação de turnos podem ter interferência no bem estar do enfermeiro, sendo necessários mais estudos nesta área.info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio
Mental health of nursing students at the Polytechnic Institute of Santarem during the COVID-19 pandemic
13th International Congress of ASPESM . Funchal, Madeira, PortugalIntroduction: The coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19) was considered a public health emergency of international concern, which revealed a significant challenge for mental health, because of its impact, in this 21st century. The context of the coronavirus in higher education has caused disturbing consequences in the lives of students. The pandemic reduced social mobility and, consequently, social interactions in periods of confinement, leading to stressful situations, with feelings of anxiety and depression, anguish, and sleep problems.
Objectives: To evaluate the levels of anxiety, depression and stress of nursing students and their relationship with sociodemographic characteristics, from the Instituto Polytechnic of Santarem, aged between 18 and 55 years.
Methodology: Quantitative, correlational, descriptive cross-sectional study. Participants: 183 students, selected by convenience sampling (boys = 19.1% and girls = 80.9%), meeting some criteria: being of Portuguese nationality; being 18 years of age or older; attending the 2nd, 3rd or 4th year of the degree course; agree to participate in the study by signing the informed consent online. Measurement instrument: Anxiety, Depression and Stress Scale - DASS-21 in the Portuguese version EADS, by Pais-Ribeiro et al., (2004), composed of three subscales, consisting of seven items evaluated by a four-point Likert scale, that reflect the severity and frequency of the feelings experienced. The survey was conducted between November 19 and December 4, 2020, via Microsoft Forms, using a link on the school's page, anonymity being guaranteed. This study was approved by the Ethics Committee of the Research Unit of IPSantarem (112020Saúde), The collected data were analysed with IBM SPSS Statistics for Windows Software, Version 27.0.
Results and discussion: The instrument showed strong internal consistency in the subscales, with high Cronbach's alpha coefficients: anxiety (α = 0.877); depression (α = 0.921) and stress (α = 0.920). Proceeding with the Pearson's correlation coefficient calculation, strong, positive, and significant correlations were found (p<0.001). According to the DASS-21 scoring instructions, the results showed that most participants had a normal level of depression (82.5%), anxiety (88.0%) and stress (94.0%). About 1.6% of the participants reported a moderate level of stress; 5.5% and 1.6% a moderate and severe level, respectively, of anxiety and 6% and 0.5% depression a moderate and severe level, respectively. These data are like those presented by Son et al., (2020), as 138 (71%) showed stress and anxiety due to COVID-19. Sun et al (2020) revealed that students had significant depressive feelings (56.9%). Another study by Chaudhary et al., (2021) showed that 68.8% had a high fear of COVID-19; 28.7% had moderate to severe depression and 51.5% had mild to severe anxiety. Significant differences were found between means (student's t-test) in the comparison between gender (p < 0.001), with the highest scores, in the three dimensions, in girls who present more stress (M = 7.59 + 4.728), depression (M =5.83 + 4.503) and anxiety (M =3.87 + 3.869), that is, the affective states of these students were more negative.
No differences were found as a function of age, marital status, year of course and district of residence.
Conclusions: The results suggest that the Institute Polytechnic develop strategies to reduce vulnerability, promote emotional stability and influence the positive mental health of students, through awareness to dissipate inappropriate perceptions; psychosocial and other support through digital platforms; development of a mental health program that promotes positive coping measures in the face of similar situations.

Um projeto de intervenção – “Diabetes no Saka”
O termo “diabetes” designa um distúrbio metabólico, crónico, que se caracteriza por níveis elevados de glucose no sangue, levando a lesões sérias no coração, vasos sanguíneos, olhos, rins e nervos. O tipo mais comum de diabetes é o tipo II, mais frequente em adultos e idosos, e ocorre quando o corpo se torna resistente à insulina ou o pâncreas não produz insulina em quantidades suficientes (WHO, 2018), sendo necessário a literacia em saúde para o empowerment destes grupos.
Entre 2009 e 2019 o envelhecimento demográfico, tornou-se mais acentuado sendo que o número de idosos (pessoas com 65 ou mais anos) aumentou em 350.028 pessoas
Em 2019, os valores do indicador: anos de vida saudável aos 65 anos em Portugal foi de 6,9 anos no sexo feminino e 7,9 anos no sexo masculino, valores inferiores aos registados na média da União Europeia (10,4 anos e 10,2 anos, respetivamente (PORDATA, 2021).
De acordo com o Departamento de Epidemiologia do Instituto Nacional de Saúde Doutor Ricardo Jorge (2016), a prevalência da diabetes mellitus na população residente em Portugal, com idade entre os 25 e os 74 anos, em 2015, segundo os resultados do Inquérito Nacional de Saúde com Exame Físico foi de 9,8 %, valor este praticamente sobreponível ao observado em 2019 (9,9 %), sendo que as mulheres correspondem a 7,7% e os homens 12,1%.
De entre os determinantes de saúde demográficos importa salientar, para Portugal, o envelhecimento, que, de acordo com as projeções demográficas efetuadas pelo Instituto Nacional de Estatística, continuará a aumentar nas próximas décadas.
Apesar da redução da mortalidade por diabetes mellitus observada principalmente na última década, esta doença e suas complicações, incluindo a morte prematura, continuam a ser uma prioridade em Portugal. Projeta-se para 2030 uma taxa de mortalidade padronizada por diabetes mellitus de 25,6 óbitos por 100.000 habitantes (Direção Geral da Saúde,
Os determinantes de saúde demográficos (sobretudo o envelhecimento), os biológicos, sobretudo, estado nutricional; peso; glicémia; perfil lipídico; os comportamentais (atividade física diminuída; consumo de álcool e tabaco; padrão alimentar) e os relacionados com o Sistema de Saúde e a Prestação de Cuidados de Saúde (cobertura universal de cuidados de saúde; acessibilidade a cuidados de vigilância em saúde ao longo do ciclo da vida; entre outros) acentuam o aumento da prevalência das doenças crónicas como a diabetes mellitus.
Dois dos Objetivos de saúde relativos às necessidades de saúde por problemas de elevada magnitude fixados para 2 030, em Portugal são: Reduzir a taxa de mortalidade padronizada por diabetes mellitus para 25,6 por 100.000 habitantes em todas as idades e ambos os sexos e reduzir a taxa de mortalidade padronizada prematura (inferior a 75 anos) por diabetes mellitus em todas as idades e ambos os sexos para 4,7 por 100.000 habitantes.
De acordo com o Departamento de Epidemiologia do Instituto Nacional de Saúde Doutor Ricardo Jorge (2016), a prevalência da diabetes mellitus na população residente em Portugal, com idade entre os 25 e os 74 anos, em 2015, segundo os resultados do Inquérito Nacional de Saúde com Exame Físico foi de 9,8 %, valor este praticamente sobreponível ao observado em 2019 (9,9 %), sendo que as mulheres correspondem a 7,7% e os homens 12,1%.
O enfermeiro especialista em enfermagem de saúde comunitária e de saúde pública, tem grande responsabilidade na promoção e educação para a saúde (EpS) com os idosos e cuidadores para a obtenção de conhecimentos e aptidões para cuidar de si mesmo e dos outros. Os enfermeiros intervêm no sentido da PrS, com uma ação educativa, sistemática e integradora ao longo do processo de adaptação do cuidador/família, proporcionando conhecimento e empowerment, para incentivar respostas saudáveis às mudanças (Calado et al., 2020).info:eu-repo/semantics/draf
Avaliação dos níveis de ferritina e vitamina B12 em pacientes submetidos à cirurgia bariátrica suplementados com polivitamínico
The nutritional deficiencies of iron and vitamin B12 are the major changes that endanger the success of bariatric surgery. The objective of this study was to evaluate ferritin and vitamin B12 levels in patients with Grade III obesity of the Brazilian Unified Health System (SUS), who underwent Roux-en-Y gastrojejunal shunting (BPGYR) supplemented free of charge with the Materna® product his multivitamin was distributed to 40 patients free of charge for 24 months and 23 patients, the control group, did not receive the drug. The comparison of ferritin and vitamin B12 in patients submitted to BPGYR, with free supplementation were superior to those observed for the control group. It is concluded that the free supply of Materna® by SUS to patients submitted to BPGYR is a recommended measure for adequate control and adherence of the patient to the treatment
