Objective: to identify the knowledge that undergraduate nursing students have about human papillomavirus vaccine. Methods: field research, descriptive, cross-sectional. Sample composed of 100 undergraduate nursing students of a private university, with use of a questionnaire. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics. Results: among participants, 98.0% reported that they knew the human papillomavirus vaccine, 65.0% recognized the types of viruses against which the vaccine gives protection, and 51.0% had knowledge about the age group that is targeted to receive the vaccine in the public healthcare network. As for the features of the administration of the vaccine, such as dosage, route of administration, contraindications and adverse events, a level of knowledge below 60.0% was observed. Conclusion: insufficient knowledge on the human papillomavirus vaccine was found among the students participating in the present study and this stresses the need to give more attention to the discussion about the prevention of cervical cancer during the training of future nurses.

RESUMOObjetivo: analisar o grau de acurácia diagnóstica dos enfermeiros clínicos de uma instituição de cardiologia. Método: trata-se de estudo quantitativo, observacional, transversal, realizado com 53 enfermeiros que utilizavam os diagnósticos de Enfermagem no trabalho. Utilizaram-se dois instrumentos: um para a caracterização do perfil sociodemográfico e o caso clínico para o levantamento dos diagnósticos de Enfermagem. Mensurou-se o grau de acurácia diagnóstica por meio da Escala de Acurácia de Diagnósticos de Enfermagem (EADE-2). Resultados: revela-se que enfermeiros que participavam da Visita Clínica Setorial e atuavam em unidades não críticas elencaram significativamente menor número de diagnósticos de Enfermagem de acurácia baixa/nula. Não houve diferença em relação ao levantamento de diagnósticos de Enfermagem com acurácia alta/moderada. Conclusão: contribui-se para a melhora da acurácia diagnóstica dos enfermeiros por meio de programas de treinamento para o exercício do raciocínio clínico. Sugere-se que a educação permanente em serviço aconteça de forma efetiva com o objetivo de melhorar a acurácia dos diagnósticos de Enfermagem dos enfermeiros possibilitando-se o levantamento de diagnósticos acurados, de intervenções direcionadas e o estabelecimento de metas possíveis.

ABSTRACT Objective: to analyze the degree of diagnostic accuracy of the clinical nurses of a cardiology institution. Method: this is a quantitative, observational, cross-sectional study conducted with 53 nurses who used nursing diagnoses at work. Two instruments were used: one for the characterization of the sociodemographic profile and the clinical case for the survey of nursing diagnoses. The degree of diagnostic accuracy was measured using the Nursing Diagnostic Accuracy Scale (NDAS-2). Results: it is revealed that nurses who participated in the Sectorial Clinical Visit and worked in non-critical units listed significantly fewer Nursing diagnoses of low / null accuracy. There was no difference in relation to the survey of Nursing diagnoses with high/moderate accuracy. Conclusion: it contributes to the improvement of the diagnostic accuracy of nurses through training programs for the exercise of clinical reasoning. It is suggested that permanent in-service education take place in an effective way with the objective of improving the accuracy of nursing diagnoses of nurses, making it possible to obtain accurate diagnoses, targeted interventions and the establishment of possible goals.

Método: estudio cuantitativo, observacional, transversal, realizado con 53 enfermeros que utilizaban diagnósticos de enfermería en el trabajo. Se utilizaron dos instrumentos: uno para caracterización del perfil sociodemográfico y el caso clínico para el levantamiento de los diagnósticos de enfermería. El grado de exactitud diagnóstica fue mezclado por medio de la Escala de Precisión de Diagnósticos de Enfermería (EADE-2). Resultados: enfermeros que participaban de la Visita Clínica Sectorial y actuaban en unidades no críticas, consideraron significativamente menor número de diagnósticos de enfermería de precisión baja / nula. No hubo diferencia en relación al levantamiento de diagnósticos de enfermería con precisión alta / moderada. Conclusión: los programas de entrenamiento para el ejercicio de raciocinio clínico contribuyen a mejorar la exactitud diagnóstica de los enfermeros. Se sugiere que la educación permanente en servicio ocurra de forma efectiva con el objetivo de mejorar la exactitud de los diagnósticos de enfermería de los enfermeros posibilitando el levantamiento de diagnósticos precisos, intervenciones dirigidas y establecimiento de metas posibles.
