Objective: to describe the health promotion competency domains, performed by nurses, for adolescents, according to the Galway Consensus. Method: a qualitative study based on the Galway Consensus theoretical methodological framework. Fifteen nurses from northeastern Brazil participated. Data were collected between April and May 2017 through pre-structured interviews, submitted to the content analysis technique and analyzed according to the Galway Consensus dimensions. Results: the following competency areas were found: catalyzing changes, leadership, needs assessment, planning, implementation, and partnerships. These competencies were contemplated from embracement of adolescents at health unit, guidance, teamwork, educational activities and lectures, as well as active search. Conclusion: most health promotion domains were observed; however, it is still suggested that there are challenges to an effective performance of health promotion among adolescents because some competency domains in health promotion have not been evidenced.
Objectives: to identify nurses’ competences in promoting women’s health. Methods: descriptive study with a qualitative approach that adopted the Galway Consensus as a theoretical-methodological framework. Data collection was performed through semi-structured interviews. Results: most of the Galway Consensus’ competence domains were present in the nurses’ interventions related to health promotion in women’s care. “Assessment of needs” and “Implementation” were the most highlighted domains, followed by “Leadership” and “Impact assessment”. The domain “Defending/Advocating Rights” was not identified. Final Considerations: within the nurses’ work with women, some of the Galway Consensus domains of competencies for health promotion were present. However, there is a need, in the context of continuous health education, to expand strategies and enhance the development and application of these health promotion competences.
Objetivo: Identificar fatores de risco associados ao comportamento sexual de adolescentes. Métodos: Trata-se de um estudo do tipo revisão integrativa da literatura, desenvolvido em seis etapas, realizado através da busca indexada de artigos nas bases de dados da LILACS, BDENF, PUBMED e SCIELO, com os seguintes descritores: “Adolescente” AND “Comportamento sexual” AND “Fatores de risco”. Foram utilizados estudos disponíveis na íntegra, do tipo artigo científico, publicados entre os anos de 2013 a 2018, nos idiomas inglês, português e espanhol. Resultados: Os principais fatores de risco encontrados para o comportamento sexual dos adolescentes foram: o uso de álcool, tabaco e outras drogas, o não uso de preservativo, ter múltiplos parceiros, sexarca precoce e o não conhecimento e informações sobre o tema. Para discutir os fatores de risco evidenciados, elegeram-se três categorias: Comportamento Sexual: conhecimentos, condutas e outros fatores associados; Álcool, Tabaco e outras Drogas: repercussões de risco para o comportamento sexual; e Infecções Sexualmente Transmissíveis em Adolescentes. Considerações Finais: Diante dos achados, ações estratégicas, como por exemplo a educação em saúde, podem ser desenvolvidas como intervenção neste grupo, e conduzidas de forma mais pontual, para obtenção de resultados significativos.
