AbstractObjective: to analyze and summarize knowledge concerning critical components of interventions that have been proposed and implemented by nurses with the aim of optimizing self-care by heart failure patients.Methods: PubMed and CINAHL were the electronic databases used to search full peer-reviewed papers, presenting descriptions of nursing interventions directed to patients or to patients and their families and designed to optimize self-care. Forty-two studies were included in the final sample (n=4,799 patients).Results: this review pointed to a variety and complexity of nursing interventions. As self-care encompasses several behaviors, interventions targeted an average of 3.6 behaviors. Educational/counselling activities were combined or not with cognitive behavioral strategies, but only about half of the studies used a theoretical background to guide interventions. Clinical assessment and management were frequently associated with self-care interventions, which varied in number of sessions (1 to 30); length of follow-up (2 weeks to 12 months) and endpoints.Conclusions: these findings may be useful to inform nurses about further research in self-care interventions in order to propose the comparison of different modalities of intervention, the use of theoretical background and the establishment of endpoints to evaluate their effectiveness.

Background: Independence is a widely used concept by the most practical areas of health knowledge, being essential to know its real meaning for subsequent application. Method: Scoping review based on the recommended principles by Joanna Briggs Institute and by the conceptual analysis method from Walker and Avant. Careful research was realized in the databases: Scopus, CINAHL complete, and MEDLINE. Two independent reviewers evaluate the relevance of the articles' understudy, the extraction, and article synthesis.Results: One hundred and two articles were included, after the application of the inclusion criteria. The majority of the authors define independence as the physical capacity for self-care and for the realization of the daily activities. Other authors, confuse independence with autonomy, referring to independence as the cognitive capacity, financial capacity, social capacity, and decision capacity.Conclusions: Independence includes the ability to perform self-care and daily living activities. Introducción: La independencia es un concepto muy utilizado por las áreas más prácticas del conocimiento en salud, siendo fundamental conocer su significado real para su posterior aplicación.Método: Revisión de alcance basada em los princípios recomendados por el Instituto Joanna Briggs y por el método de análisis conceptual de Walker y Avant. Se realizó uma cuidadosa investigación en las bases de datos: Scopus, CINAHL complete y MEDLINE. Dos revisores independientes evalúan la relevancia de los artículos en estudio, la extracción y síntesis del artículo.Resultados: Se incluyeron ciento y dos de los artículos, luego de la aplicación de los criterios de inclusión. La mayoria de los autores definen la independencia como la capacidad física para el autocuidado y para la realización de las actividades diarias. Otros autores confunden independencia com autonomia, refiriéndose a la independencia como capacidad cognitiva, capacidade financiera, capacidad social y capacidad de decisión.Conclusiones: La independencia incluye la capacidad para realizar actividades de autocuidado y de la vida diaria.

ABSTRACT Objectives: map both nursing interventions for the prevention of falls in paediatric age during hospitalization and the instruments for assessing the risk of falls in paediatrics. Methods: scoping review according to the protocol of Joanna Briggs Institute, with acronym PCC (P - children, C - fall preventive nursing interventions and instruments for assessing the risk of falling, C - hospital admission), in three sources of information (EBSCO, PubMed and SciELO). Results: the sample consisted of seven articles. The education of the child/family is the basis of the interventions, and the instruments for assessing the risk of falling identified were: Humpty Dumpty Falls Scale, GRAF PIF, CUMMINGS, I'M SAFE and CHAMPS. Conclusions: the education of children/parents on preventive measures is important and should be reinforced during hospitalization, using different methodologies. The Humpty Dumpty Falls Scale was the most analyzed.

Introduction: Today, design and development of smartphone applications is growing, rapidly. Health  care applications have developed as a means of teaching, health promotion, patients’ self-care and controlling the nutrition of diabetic patients. Objectives: Identify the functionality of smart applications in the mobile platform for controlling, teaching and healthy lifestyles in the field of nutrition for diabetic patients. Method: Current review was conducted on the mobile platform to consider the functionalities of available applications to support the diabetic patients with the intelligent tools.  The results of inclusion criteria (such as nutrition, weight control, blood pressure, education and interactive analysis tools) were evaluated and organized in the form of a scoping review.  All applications in the systematic search were independent of both operating systems. The search samples were found in May 2018 by experts of medical informatics. Findings: 273 potential applications were identified according to the results of the inclusion criteria with evidence based strategies and systematic evaluations to find the apps for diabetic patients. Approximately 29% of apps in both stores (79/273) met primary assessment criteria. Of these, 40 % of apps (32/79) excluded of more consideration due to lack in the most criteria of this study. The remaining apps are described as follows: 8% of total apps (22/273) and 4% of the apps (11/273) met general criteria and all criteria (including general and special) in the Google play store, respectively.  Only 2 apps met general criteria with the Apple iOS while none of them covered with special criteria according to the objectives of this study. Conclusion: There are various applications for control, education, and self-care in diabetes. Google is an acceptable platform for developers interested in examining interactive apps and techniques in disease control, education and healthy lifestyle programs.

Gender and sex differences affect women with kidney failure (KF) negatively at all stages of the disease. This study assessed gender differences in self-care, hemodialysis symptoms, and quality of life in a sample of 102 adult KF patients treated with hemodialysis, from two clinical centers in Mexico. Self-care agency, quality of life, and the symptoms related to hemodialysis were evaluated through questionnaires, and sociodemographic and laboratory variables were obtained from the clinical records. Compared to male patients, female patients reported similar self-care, lower quality of life subscales (symptoms, physical functioning, pain, and overall health), and higher prevalence and intensity of hemodialysis symptoms. There were gender differences regarding the correlation between self-care and quality of life, symptoms intensity, and symptoms prevalence. In conclusion, women with KF treated with hemodialysis perceived a higher impact of hemodialysis and reported a lower quality of life than men. Despite having a similar self-care agency, the self-care correlations with quality of life and hemodialysis symptoms appeared different between men and women treated with chronic hemodialysis. Such differences may be important in future nursing interventions to improve self-care and quality of life among KF patients.
