Concluise que assistência de qualidade e humanizada ao parto e nascimento privilegia o respeito, dignidade e autonomia das mulheres, com resgate do papel ativo da mulher no processo parturitivo. Descritores: Enfermagem; Enfermagem Obstétrica; Humanização do Parto. ABSTRACT INTRODUÇÃOHistoricamente a assistência ao parto era de responsabilidade exclusivamente feminina, pois apenas as parteiras realizavam essa prática. Sabe-se que as mesmas eram conhecidas na sociedade pela suas experiências, embora não dominassem o conhecimento científico. Assim, os acontecimentos na vida da mulher se sucediam na sua residência, onde elas trocavam conhecimento e descobriam afinidades, sendo considerada incômoda à presença masculina durante a parturição (1) . Entretanto, partir do século XX na década de 40, foi intensificada a hospitalização do parto, que permitiu a medicalização e controle do período gravídico puerperal e o parto como um processo natural, privativo e familiar, passou a ser vivenciado na esfera pública, em instituições de saúde com a presença de vários atores conduzindo este período. Esse fato favoreceu a submissão da mulher

The environmental contamination by geohelminths represents a world public health problem and has been well documented by several authors. However, few papers describe the presence of such contamination in saline soils of coastal beaches. A study was performed on the beaches of the municipality of Santos in the period between May 2004 to April 2005 with the aim of determining the degree of contamination, and the correlation between contamination level and seasonal conditions and characteristics of the environment. Of the 2,520 samples analyzed, 18.2% (458) were contaminated, 32.3% (148) of which were localized in children's recreational areas (playgrounds). The parasite profile found in the analyzed samples indicated the presence of several zoonotic parasites: Ancylostoma larvae (82.5%), Toxocara sp. eggs (59.4%), Ancylostomidae-like eggs (37.1%), coccid oocysts (13.5%), Trichostrongylus sp. eggs and larvae, Ascaris lumbricoides eggs, (11.6%), Entamoeba sp. cysts (10.0%), Strongyloides sp. (4.8%), several free nematoids and some non-identified parasitic structures (3.3%). It was established that the highest frequency of parasitic structures occurred in the months between May and October 2004, and from February to March 2005. An increase in the diversity of parasitic forms was documented in the months between February to December 2004 and from January to April 2005, these periods having the highest rainfall.

Objective To analyze the risk factors in the domestic environment for the occurrence of falls in children under five years of age. Method A cross-sectional study was conducted in May and in June of 2016 with 344 caregivers of children from Northeast Brazil. A socio-economic questionnaire and a checklist for environmental observation were used. Bivariate analyzes were performed using Pearson's Chi-square test. Results They were associated with the risk of falls in children under 5 years of age: High net (p = 0.015), presence of stairs or steps without a handrail (p=0.003), and exits and passages kept with toys, furniture, boxes or other items that may be obstructive (p=0.002). Conclusion The factors in the domestic environment identified as associated with the risk of falls in children under five years of age demonstrate that there is a need to construct prevention strategies related to the structure and organization of this environment.

RESUMO Objetivo Analisar a cultura de segurança do paciente em diferentes esferas de gestão na perspectiva da equipe de enfermagem atuante em centro cirúrgico. Método Estudo transversal com 200 profissionais de enfermagem, em três centros cirúrgicos do Piauí, sendo o primeiro municipal, o segundo federal e o terceiro estadual, de janeiro a agosto de 2016, por meio da aplicação do instrumento Hospital Survey on Patient Safety Culture. Resultados O primeiro centro cirúrgico não apresentou área fortalecida da segurança do paciente; os outros apresentaram a dimensão “Aprendizado organizacional – melhoria contínua” (80,6%/75,6%) e “Frequência de eventos comunicados” (76,2%) como áreas fortalecidas. No primeiro, prevaleceu a nota de segurança “regular”, enquanto os participantes dos segundo e terceiro julgaram a segurança do paciente como “muito boa”. A maioria dos participantes dos três centros cirúrgicos (80,0%) não relatou evento adverso nos últimos 12 meses. Conclusão Os centros cirúrgicos de gestão estadual e federal obtiveram melhores notas de segurança do paciente comparados ao de gestão municipal. Assim, para uma assistência segura e eficaz, faz-se necessário que as dimensões fortalecidas em cada gestão sejam aprimoradas e as fragilizadas sejam melhoradas.

Objetivo: contextualizar y reflexionar sobre el modelo de los sistemas de Betty Neuman en la relación entre el presentismo, el ambiente de trabajo y la salud del trabajador de enfermería.Síntesis del contenido: se trata de un estudio cualitativo teórico y reflexivo basado en el marco teórico de Betty Neuman. Las reflexiones se basan en estudios publicados entre el 2009 y el 2017, en la literatura nacional e internacional.Conclusiones: se observó que el presentismo trae daños a los trabajadores de enfermería en los ámbitos físico, psicológico, socio-cultural, desarrollista y espiritual por los agentes estresantes favorecidos en el ambiente de trabajo, tales como excesiva carga de trabajo, mala salud, peligros físicos y ergonómicos. Por lo tanto, combatir el presentismo depende de la sana interacción entre el individuo y el entorno en el que vive y trabaja, y debe considerar aspectos de prevención y promoción a partir de la disminución los factores estresores.

Acanthamoeba and Naegleria species are free-living amoebae (FLA) found in a large variety of natural habitats. The prevalence of such amoebae was determined from dust samples taken from public non-hospital internal environments with good standards of cleanliness from two campuses of the same University in the city of Santos (SP), Brazil, and where young and apparently healthy people circulate. The frequency of free-living amoebae in both campuses was 39% and 17% respectively, with predominance of the genus Acanthamoeba. On the campus with a much larger number of circulating individuals, the observed frequency of free-living amoebae was 2.29 times larger (P< 0.00005). Two trophozoite forms of Naegleria fowleri, are the only species of this genus known to cause primary amoebian meningoencephalitis, a rare and non-opportunistic infection. We assume that the high frequency of these organisms in different internal locations represents some kind of public health risk.

This is a qualitative research, aiming to describe and analyze the perception of nurses from the Family Health strategy on the importance and perspectives of implementation of the Men's Health Policy.

It brings contributions on the current health situation of men and the assistance and consolidation of nursing care.

Introduction: Domestic accidents are one of the main causes of death among children, characterized by an event that involves multiple determinants, emphasizing, among others, intrapersonal, interpersonal, cultural and institutional factors. Objective: To analyse the determinants of domestic accidents in early childhood.Methods: This is an exploratory, descriptive, and cross-sectional study carried out in the Emergency Hospital of Teresina city, Piauí, Brazil, between January and March 2016. The population was composed of 21 caregivers of children under five years old, hospitalized between January and March 2016. For data collection, a structured interview was conducted on aspects related to the risk factors associated with the incidence of domestic accidents involving children. A descriptive analysis was performed, with absolute and relative frequencies for the variables. The Human Research Ethics Committee approved the research with Protocol No. 1324184. Results: In relation to intrapersonal factors, pre-school children were the main victims (57.2%). For interpersonal factors, it was observed that most of participants (85.7%) considered the household unsafe for children. The evaluation of institutional factors showed that most caregivers (52.4%) had not been advised about the prevention of accidents at home. In terms of cultural factors, most participants (81%) had not heard news about domestic accidents. Conclusion: Parents and caregivers have very limited knowledge about the prevention of childhood accidents at home, with male pre-schoolers the main victims of domestic accidents.
