The remarkable expansion of Family Health Care Program and the discussion of issues related to the amount of the collected data stimulated the need for designing an information system that embraced the complex organization of basic health care. So, in 1998, the Basic Health Care Information System (SI4B) was founded. This research aimed to investigate the use of SIAB by the professional teams of the Family Health Care. A questionnaire was applied to 75 professionals belonging to 10 teams which were observed, one week each. The study evidenced that the Family Health Care teams that participated in this research have not used the available information for planning or assessing their health care services, and so, they have missed the opportunity of using the available information for health care local needs.
Objectives: To identify how education on nursing theory is addressed in undergraduate nursing courses in schools of higher education in the state of Parana. Methods: A survey was conducted using a sample of the 35 coordinators of the nursing course of higher education institutions of the State of Parana, Brazil. Results: 35 courses were identified that focused on nursing theory. The students are introduced to nursing theory early in the curriculum, usually at the beginning of the nursing program. Wanda Horta's theory was mentioned as the theory on which many courses were based (60%). Conclusion: The teaching of nursing theory is conducted in a fragmented manner, which may contribute to nurses´ experience of low autonomy, and a lack of clear understanding regarding all of the areas of concern that the profession encompasses.
