Objective: to comparatively analyze the perception of nursing students from two class groups, regarding the implicit teaching of critical thinking in a Basic Life Support course.Method: educational intervention with a qualitative approach based on historical-cultural theory. A total of 102 students participated in the study, 52 in the intervention group, who were taught using Problem Based Learning methodology associated with guiding questions, and 50 in the control group, taught only using Problem Based Learning. Data were collected from November 12 to 30 in 2015 at the Federal University of Viçosa, through a sociodemographic questionnaire, an evaluation instrument and semi-structured interviews. The evaluative tool and interviews were explored using Bardin's content analysis.Results: the course stimulated critical thinking skills in students from both groups. However, the intervention group portrayed more perceptions about the characteristics of a critical thinker. The students in the control group, to which only the Problem Based Learning methodology was applied to, mentioned the acquisition of technical skills. In the intervention group, to which the Problem Based Learning methodology associated with the guiding questions was applied to, the students reported the skills of a critical thinker in addition to the technical skills.Conclusion: the comparative analysis allows us to conclude that teaching methodologies that stimulate critical thinking become mediators in the development and improvement of higher mental functions in teaching, encompassing cognitive and metacognitive capacities. The study represents contribution and advancement in the scope of nursing teaching, considering that the questions add to the technologies of health education. DESCRIPTORS:Nursing. Nursing education.

Objective: To understand the perception of a multiprofessional team regarding the use of music in a therapeutic workshop developed by nurses. Method: Qualitative study, of the exploratory type. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews, with the participation of 13 professionals from a Psychosocial Care Center in a municipality of Minas Gerais’ Zona da Mata, and analyzed according to Michel Maffesoli’s comprehensive sociology approach. Results: The testimonies revealed that the use of music in the nurse’s activities in mental health represents a re-signification of nursing care and favors the user’s subjectivity. Final considerations: This study allowed us to show that nurses need to listen to the music that comes from the heart, from the soul, and to the truths that are not always stated in the scenarios of therapeutic practices with individuals going through psychic suffering. Therefore, the care offered should be centered on the human history, which wants to be unveiled and understood.

Objetivo: explorar as implicações biopsicossociais da COVID-19 para indivíduos com transtornos relacionado ao uso de substâncias psicoativas, bem como as estratégias de atenção a essa população durante o surto de SARS-CoV-2. Método: estudo descritivo que incluiu diferentes desenhos de estudos em bases de dados virtuais para mostrar o crescimento do número de publicações na área da saúde mental com ênfase em álcool e outras drogas durante a pandemia de COVID-19. Para isso, foram selecionadas duas bases de dados (Biblioteca Cochrane, via Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews e Medline, via PubMed). Resultados: pessoas com transtornos relacionados ao uso das substâncias psicoativas geralmente apresentam condições de saúde pré-existentes que podem indicar maior risco a infecção por COVID-19. Por outro lado, indivíduos que já faziam o uso de substâncias, podem se beneficiar do uso para alívio temporário da ansiedade causada por essa situação, aumentando os riscos de uso nocivo. Conclusão: questões biológicas, individuais (cognitivo comportamentais) e sociais afetam sobremaneira indivíduos com transtornos relacionados ao uso de substâncias psicoativas colocando-os em alto risco para o contágio e desenvolvimento da COVID-19. Descritores: Usuários de drogas; Transtornos relacionados ao uso de substâncias; Consumo de Bebidas Alcoólicas; Pandemias; COVID-19.

Background: Women were more prone to consuming alcohol as a coping mechanism, towards the COVID-19 pandemic stressors than men. There are worldwide evidences of an increase in this consumption during the social restriction phases and its association with negative impact on women's health conditions. The study aimed to describe women’s alcohol use throughout the restriction phases of the COVID-19 pandemic in São Paulo, Brazil. Method: Cross-sectional survey based on telephonic self-reports, and enrolled women who sought health care at primary health care. The sample comprised 3252 women, of whom 1308 (40%) reported consuming alcohol. The independent variable was the timing of the COVID-19 pandemic’s restriction phases. Data collection was based on telephonic self-reports, and enrolled women who sought health care at primary health care. The AUDIT-C was used as a measurement instrument. The covariates included socio-demographics, lifestyle, and outcomes related to the COVID-19 infection. Univariate and multivariate models were used for analysis. A generalized linear model with a negative binomial distribution and zero inflation for the AUDIT-C score as an outcome variable was used for the entire sample. Findings: Women’s alcohol consumption during the COVID-19 restriction phases was compatible with moderate-risk use 3.5 (SD=2.9). Binge drinking was observed in 41.8% of the participants. Alcohol consumption was 28.9% higher in the transition phase of social restriction than in the restriction and flexibilization phases. Hospitalization for COVID-19 and loss of loved one due to COVID-19 were associated with alcohol consumption. Conclusions: Women presented a pattern of moderate risk of alcohol. This consumption were higher during the restriction phase of the pandemic in South America’s largest city; tehrefore, it brought important reflections on the women’s pattern of alcohol consumption revealing social and clinical vulnerability of this population, which might be taken into account in future health policies and programs.
Objectives: to perform content validity and verify the psychometric properties of the adapted version of an alcohol knowledge questionnaire and associated questions. Methods: a methodological study, in which a committee of judges analyzed the questionnaire item representativeness, clarity and relevance. Item response theory was used to assess the instrument psychometric properties applied to a sample of 240 health professionals. Results: the questions were adjusted according to judges’ assessment, obtaining a satisfactory Content Validity Index (0.98). High discrimination ability and adequate difficulty levels were observed in 75% of multiple-choice questions and in 25% of statements. Conclusions: the instrument presented content validity with satisfactory indices. However, it is recommended that the questionnaire adapted in this study be used in different samples of health professionals from other parts of Brazil, in order to provide greater robustness to its reliability.
