The aim of this research was to understand the performance of Family Health Teams on early detection of prostate cancer. It is a qualitative research conducted with 10 health professionals, including doctors, nurses, nursing technicians and community health agents, from two Family Health Units of Jaguaquara, Bahia, Brazil. For data collection we apply a semi-structured interview guided by a script containing five questions inherent to the theme. The information produced was submitted to Bardin's content analysis technique, which originated three thematic categories. It is noteworthy that the project was approved by the Research Ethics Committee, under opinion no. 1,644,785. Between the results we obtained: actions to promote early detection of prostate cancer; importance of early diagnosis; factors that hinder early detection of prostate cancer. It is concluded that given the existing problem regarding the demand for health services by the male public, professionals need to be prepared and trained so that health programs can meet their objectives of effective promotion and prevention.

The aim of this study was to identify the knowledge of health professionals about the Surgical Safety Checklist, the challenges and strategies for its implementation in a public hospital. This is a quantitative, descriptive, cross-sectional research. Held between April and May 2017, it comprised the completion of a questionnaire about the knowledge and perceptions of the Safe Surgery Protocol by professionals working in the operating room. Data were analyzed considering descriptive statistics. 72 professionals participated in the study, including nursing technicians, nurses, doctors and instructors, most knew the Protocol and objectives. The lack of adherence of the team was the main challenge encountered by this team to use this protocol. They pointed out important strategies that could possibly subsidize the implementation of the tool in the institution. The study hypothesis was confirmed, as it was found that professionals have knowledge about the Checklist and recognize it as a tool that ensures the quality of care during the perioperative period, and list the main challenges for its implementation.

The social perception that a profession has is directly related to what the professional transmits of his own identity. In the specific case of nursing, he carries on his shoulders a historical burden that, instead of giving him prestige, gave him stigmata, such as: the use of uniform, the nursing exercise as punishment (payment of sins) and the beginning of the Professionalization with Florence Nightingale. A bibliographic review was carried out in databases Scielo, Google Scholar, Virtual Health Library of the WHO, with the boolean terms of "social perception" "nursing" "professional identity" and 34 scientific articles of type review or reflection were obtained ; articles of less than 5 years that respond to the search and interest of the author were selected. As a result, it was obtained that nursing as a profession has stigmas such as weakness, invisibility, poor autonomy, unfair remuneration, sex toys and other stereotypes. It is concluded that, although the mistaken beliefs of nursing are intricate in the population, the nurse is the only one in charge of building a solid professional identity, which will be transmitted to society.    

Objective: To analyze the social representations of sex workers about HIV / AIDS. Method: Qualitative, descriptive-exploratory study of social representations with a procedural approach. Fifteen sex workers participated in the study, these men having sex with men, homosexuals, transvestites and transsexual women. The data were collected through an interview script of the structured type and a sociodemographic questionnaire, from March 2015 to March 2016. The analysis of evaluative content was used as a technique. Results: The social representations of the HIV/AIDS study subjects present conceptual elements about the virus and the disease, vulnerability; treatment; prevention; and transmission. Conclusion: Participants show in their representations the deficit of health promotion strategies on the theme, focused on their needs and specificities.

This research aimed to determine the strategies of the supervising nurse in the integration of nursing work teams in a hospital institution. This is a qualitative investigation carried out in a second level hospital, between August 2017 and July 2018. An individual interview was applied to 10 supervising nurses of that institution. The analysis was carried out using the chromatic technique and the content analysis; the discussion was developed based on the contrast of the data obtained with the Belbin Team Roles theory. They are presented in categories and subcategories related to the characteristics of human nursing talent: level of knowledge, technical skills, personality, interpersonal skills and high performance teams. Strategies that nursing supervisors use when integrating work teams were identified.

This study aimed to investigate the perceptions of family members in the care of patients about the use of hypodermoclysis at home. A descriptive qualitative investigation was developed in which semi-structured interviews were conducted with 10 participants in a Brazilian home care service. The data will be organized into the y program and will eventually be analyzed by Bardin containment analysis. As a result, the person in charge of caring for the patients expresses concerns and concerns about taking responsibility for the care of the hypodermoclisis, as well as the partner with the patient. However, over time, I recognize that this method facilitates care and enhances patient comfort. It is concluded that the assistance of health professionals can help family members in patient care adapt to the use of hypodermoclisis at home

Resumen:Se presentan dos estudios en el ámbito de la educación patrimonial realizados en contexto formal (aula de historia) y no formal (participantes en las Jornadas Europeas del Patrimonio en el Museo de Arqueología D. Diogo de Sousa, Braga) en Portugal. Se trata de una investigación con enfoque esencialmente cualitativo con el objetivo de conocer las perspectivas de los participantes con respecto a los usos y significados de los objetos arqueológicos. El primero estudio se ha desarrollado con 80 alumnos de séptimo grado (primero de ESO) en un centro educativo del norte de Portugal, con la intención de comprender cómo usan y dan sentido histórico a réplicas de objetos arqueológicos de la época romana. En el segundo estudio, cerca de veinte participantes fueron invitados a seleccionar e interpretar objetos que podrían crear recuerdos personales y a compartir sus impresiones, pensamientos e ideas sobre los mismos. Los resultados de los dos estudios muestran que los objetos arqueológicos pueden contribuir para la interpretación del pasado por diferentes individuos. La manipulación y la exploración sensorial de los objetos, y concretamente los arqueológicos, son estrategias que permiten activar memorias y realizar experiencias de aprendizaje muy fructuosas. Además, el uso de réplicas en el aula incentiva la curiosidad de los alumnos y anima a una visita al museo o al centro interpretativo donde se exponen los objetos arqueológicos reales.Palabras Clave: Educación Patrimonial; Arqueología; Objetos arqueológicos; Interpretación. Abstract: Two studies in the field of heritage education, carried out in a formal context (first year students of ESO in history classroom) and non-formal (participants of the European Heritage Days at the Museum of Archaeology D. Diogo de Sousa, Braga) in Portugal, are presented. This essentially qualitative research, aimed at knowing the perspectives of the participants concerning the uses and meanings of the archeologic objects. The first study was carried out in the history classroom with about 80 students of compulsory secondary education (seventh grade) in the north of Portugal, intending to understand how they use and give historical sense to replicas of archaeological objects of the Roman era. In the second study, about 20 participants in the museum were invited to select and interpret objects that give them access to personal memories, sharing their impressions, thoughts and ideas about them. The results reveal that archaeological objects can be excellent sources to interpret the past for different audiences. The manipulation and sensory exploration of objects, and specifically archaeological objects, are strategies that allow memories to be activated and very fruitful learning experiences to take place. In addition, the use of replicas in the classroom stimulates students' curiosity and encourages a visit to the museum or to the interpretive centre where real archaeological objects are exhibited.Keywords: Heritage Education; Archaeology; Archaeological objects; Interpretation.

Resumen:En el presente estudio se realiza una aproximación cuantitativa a la situación actual de las principales instituciones museísticas arqueológicas en las principales redes sociales (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Pinterest y YouTube). Tras un periodo de adaptación a los ritmos y características particulares de cada red social, las instituciones se encuentran en una fase de estabilidad donde destaca una actividad diaria más informativa que educativa y donde llama la atención las pocas respuestas y comentarios que suscitan lo cual dificulta la generación de procesos educomunicativos.Palabras clave: Educación Patrimonial, Museos, Web Social, Redes Sociales y Web 2.0 Abstract: In the present study, a quantitative approach is made regarding the current situation of the main archaeological museums in the main social networks (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Pinterest and YouTube). After a period of adaptation to the rhythms and particular characteristics of each social network, the institutions are in a stability phase where a daily activity is more informative than educational and where the few responses and comments that they generate draw attention and where the few responses and comments that we have observed make it difficult to generate of educommunicative processes.Key Words: Heritage Education, Museums, Social Web, Social Media and Web 2.0
