Discrimination and limited access to healthcare services in remote areas can affect vaccination coverage. Therefore, this study aimed to estimate vaccination coverage for children living in quilombola communities and rural settlements in the central region of Brazil during their first year of life and to analyze the factors associated with incomplete vaccination. An analytical cross-sectional study was conducted on children born between 2015 and 2017. The percentage of children who received all vaccines recommended by the National Immunization Program in Brazil by 11 months and 29 days was used to calculate immunization coverage. Children who received the following vaccines were considered as having a complete basic vaccination schedule: one dose of BCG; three doses of Hepatitis B, of Diphtheria-Tetanus-Pertussis (DPT), of Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib), and of Poliovirus (Polio); two doses of Rotavirus, of 10-valent pneumococcal (PCV10), and of Serogroup C meningococcal conjugate (MenC); and one dose of Yellow Fever (YF). Measles-mumps-rubella (MMR) and other doses recommended at or after 12 months were not included. Consolidated logistic regression was used to identify factors associated with incomplete vaccination coverage. Overall vaccination coverage was 52.8% (95% CI: 45.5–59.9%) and ranged from 70.4% for the Yellow Fever vaccine to 78.3% for the Rotavirus vaccine, with no significant differences between the quilombola and settler groups. Notably, the likelihood of incomplete general vaccination coverage was higher among children who did not receive a visit from a healthcare professional. Urgent strategies are required to achieve and ensure health equity for this unique and traditionally distinct group with low vaccination coverage.
Objectives: To identify useful terms for nursing practice in the care of people with leprosy and to cross-mapp the identified terms with the ICNP® terms. Method: A descriptive, documentary study that included publications of the Ministry of Health in the area of leprosy launched between 2002 and 2017. The terms identified in these publications were extracted and underwent a normalization proces and then, were cross-mapped with terms of the ICNP® version 2015 for the identification of constant and non-constant terms in this terminology. Results: In total, were extracted 1,177 terms, of which 26.76% were equal, 4.59% similar, 4.26% were broader, 19.62% were more restricted, and 44.77% were totally different from the ICNP® terms. Conclusions: The large number of terms identified and not included in the ICNP® show the need for its expansion in order to contemplate the phenomena of clinical practice more effectively and allow better representation of nursing care for people with leprosy.

Objective: To estimate the prevalence of Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs) in immigrants and refugees living in the metropolitan region of Goiânia, Goiás. Method: This is a cross-sectional and analytical study. Data collection was carried out from July 2019 to January 2020 and 308 immigrants and refugees were included in the sample. All were underwent face-to-face interviews and were tested for HIV, Syphilis, and Hepatitis B, using rapid tests. Results: The general prevalence for any of the STIs investigated was 8.8% (95%CI 6.0% – 12.3%), being 5.8% (95%CI 3.6% – 8.9%) for Hepatitis B, 2.3% for Syphilis (95%CI 1.00% – 4.4%) and 0.7% for HIV (95%CI 0.1% – 2.1%). Multiple analysis, using logistic regression, showed that the variables male gender (OR = 2.7) and length of time living in Brazil (OR = 2.6) were significantly associated with STIs (p < 0.05). Conclusion: The results of this study suggest that STIs are a health problem in immigrants/refugees, which appear to be enhanced with the length of migration in the country. Public policies that guarantee health care for this population shall be considered.

Objetivo: Analisar o perfil de diagnósticos de enfermagem em pessoas com hanseníase, utilizando a teoria de Orem e a Classificação Internacional para a Prática de Enfermagem (CIPE®). Método: Estudo transversal, descritivo, incluiu 24 pessoas com hanseníase, em atendimento ambulatorial. A coleta de dados ocorreu mediante consultas de enfermagem, à luz da teoria de Orem, utilizando- se entrevista e exame clínico. Resultados: O processo de elaboração dos diagnósticos de enfermagem foi apoiado em raciocínio clínico, no modelo de sete eixos da CIPE® e na ISO 18.104. As inferências diagnósticas foram validadas por três juízes. Conclusão: Foram identificados 60 diagnósticos de enfermagem, sendo 51,6% classificados como requisitos de autocuidado de desvio da saúde. O perfil de diagnósticos indica demandas de autocuidado específicas desta população e a necessidade de intervenções organizadas no sistema apoio e educação.

Desde a divulgação das Diretrizes Curriculares de Enfermagem os cursos de graduação têm missão de formar enfermeiros generalistas, críticos, reflexivos e humanistas, o que requer esforços das instituições formadoras na busca de estratégias que viabilizem desenvolvimento dessas habilidades. Estudo descritivo, exploratório de natureza bibliográfica, teve objetivo de analisar a produção cientifica em periódicos nacionais sobre ensino do cuidado humanizado na graduação em enfermagem entre 1990/2008. A ocorrência dessa produção nos periódicos estudados sinaliza tendência de expansão do ensino do cuidado humanizado na formação do enfermeiro. Na análise identificamos a contribuição das Diretrizes Curriculares, além de estratégias facilitadoras no ensino do cuidado humanizado. Para o desenvolvimento dessa competência é fundamental ênfase nessa dimensão na formação acadêmica e a educação permanente.

Trata-se de estudo de abordagem qualitativa, com delineamento de pesquisa documental, cujo objetivo é identificar e descrever a inserção do referencial ético-humanista nos projetos pedagógicos dos cursos de graduação em Enfermagem de Goiânia, Brasil. A investigação foi desenvolvida em cinco instituições de Ensino Superior por meio da análise dos referidos projetos, nos quais buscamos termos que faziam referência à abordagem ético-humanista, gerando duas categorias: "A formação do profissional ético-humanista" e "O enfoque da integralidade no contexto dos projetos pedagógicos dos cursos". Das 218 ementas analisadas, em apenas quarenta encontramos algum termo relacionado ao referencial estudado. A análise detalhada desses documentos permitiu identificar, em toda a sua extensão, aspectos teórico-filosóficos relevantes desse referencial. O estudo apresenta elementos que poderão promover reflexões, fazendo com que os princípios do referencial ético-humanista sejam efetivamente norteadores da reforma curricular de acordo com a atual legislação educacional brasileira.
