Abstract Introduction: Burnout Syndrome is a disorder, which is increasingly affecting professionals, and among many working classes, nursing professionals stood out, because they are more exposed to aggravating factors responsible for the development of this syndrome. Objective: Analyze and compare the prevalence of the Burnout Syndrome in nurses working in primary health care, as well as in tertiary health care. Patients and Method: This is a descriptive study with a quantitative approach. The study was carried out in the municipality of Patos, state of Paraíba, Brazil. The sample used was non-probabilistic for convenience, deter-mined by adequacy to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, with 29 primary care nurses and 49 tertiary nurses participating in the study. Data collection was performed in September 2015, using a questionnaire to identify the sample social and demographic profile and the Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI) to measure the incidence of the aforementioned complaint. Data were stored and analyzed in the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences and descriptive statistics were used. In addition, the reliability or internal consistency of the factors within the Burnout scale was verified through Cronbach's Alpha. Student's t test and Pearson's correlation were used as inferential tests. We considered p ≤ 0.05 as statistically significant. Results: It was verified that 64.1% of the sample presented low emotional exhaustion, 52.6% presented an average professional accomplishment, and 85.9% low depersonalization. No statistically significant differences were observed in the comparison of nursing professionals affected by Burnout in primary and tertiary health care. It was noticed that primary health care professionals are less professionally fulfilled when compared to tertiary health care professionals. Conclusion: The research results showed relevance, especially when the objective is to pay attention to the professional's health through the search of strategies in the health promotion of these professionals.

Introduction: The Attention Deficit Disorder constitutes a complex behavioral disorder that takes the child to variable degrees of commitment in social, emotional, educational and family life. This disorder is characterized by motor, perceptual, cognitive and behavioral disorders, expressing global difficulties of child development. There is a shortage of physiotherapy work in the area of psychiatry. Some studies conclude that body techniques have much to contribute in mental health care and stresses that physiotherapy must take its place within the new perspectives in mental health care. Thereby, it emerged the concern to assess the importance of physical therapy techniques in children with Attention Deficit Disorder/Hyperactivity Disorder-ADHD. Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of physical therapy techniques in children with Attention Deficit Disorder/Hyperactivity Disorder. Methods: The study, from the point of view of its nature, framed in a double blind study with a quantitative approach. The sample consisted of two groups with a total of 10 children, aged from 7 to 11 years. It was composed five children the 1st control group (held 20 sessions of psychology and educational psychology) and the 2 nd therapeutic
Esse trabalho objetiva evidenciar e discutir os dados descritos na literatura acerca da automedicação entre os universitários, bem como analisar os fatores que contribuem para essa prática. Nesse estudo foi realizada uma coleta no PubMed®, Google Acadêmico®, Literatura Latino-Americana em Ciências da Saúde e Science Direct, utilizando os descritores, automedicação e estudantes. Após o refino da busca e aplicação dos critérios de inclusão, foram compilados nessa revisão 23 artigos que fizeram referência ao tema desse estudo. Observou-se que 51,7% dos estudantes de cursos da saúde fazem uso de medicamentos sem prescrição médica, mesmo possuindo total conhecimento dos riscos que podem trazer para saúde, a prevalência de automedicação entre os universitários variou de 36,1% a 99,5%. Dentre as principais classes de medicamentos utilizadas, destacaram-se os anti-inflamatórios 23,3% e analgésicos 31,4%. Os fatores que estão atrelados à prática de automedicação dos universitários são a acessibilidade para adquirir medicamentos sem prescrição médica, demora nos atendimentos do sistema de saúde pública, os valores elevados das consultas particulares e a grande disponibilidade de informações existentes na internet. Esse comportamento de se automedicar pode desencadear o surgimento de dores crônicas. Visto que ao utilizar um medicamento específico de maneira frequente, seu efeito deixa de ser percebido, fazendo com que o indivíduo passe a ingerir doses maiores. Diante disso, conclui-se que é necessário que seja implantando nas universidades métodos educativos, principalmente entre os acadêmicos dos cursos da saúde. Utilizando estratégias que conscientizem os mesmos e crie uma abordagem sobre o uso racional de medicamentos em disciplinas transversais ao longo da graduação.

Introduction: In the mouth there are several microorganisms, including bacteria and fungi, which, under favorable conditions, can cause oral health problems. In combating these diseases there are several antibiotics and antifungals, synthetic drugs and also natural.Objective: Identifying the action of propolis on microorganisms in the oral cavity.Method: we opted for the integrative literature review, using the descriptors: oral cavity, propolis, anti-inflammatory activity, antimicrobial activity, endodontics, antimicrobial, propolis, saliva, metabolism, microbiology, antimicrobial activity and mouth; the consulted databases were PubMed, LILACS and SciELO, published between 1999 and 2014. The results were obtained through the selection of 09 articles, through close reading, critical and reflective texts, and then the organization of summary frames of data. Results:Evidence was gathered and synthesized, pointing to the antibacterial action (Gram-positive and Gram-negative) and antifungal (C. albicans and C. tropicallis) of propolis. The methodological designs of the studies analyzed were in majority, of weak evidence, for evidencebased practice. Therefore, the findings may be questioned. Conclusion:It needs that are carried out research studies in a systematic review and randomized clinical studies with humans, because they are considered major force evidence and are defined therapeutic parameters and minimum chemical composition, the different types of propolis, so having the appropriate/desired therapeutic properties.
