Method: his descriptive-exploratory study, with a qualitative approach.

It is a descriptive, exploratory study, with qualitative approach, that was developed in a teaching hospital in the Northwest of Paraná state between November 2011 and January 2012, involving the participation of 16 postpartum women. Data were collected by means of non-participant systematic observation of the childbirths and semi-structured interview. The data collected were analyzed using the thematic content analysis.

ABSTRACT Objective: to describe the conception of justice of nurses and users regarding the Risk Classification in Emergency Unit; to analyze the conception of justice in the implementation of the Risk Classification in Emergency Unit from the user’s recognition; to discuss, from Axel Honneth’s Theory of Recognition, justice with the user in the Risk Classification in Emergency Unit. Method: qualitative research of descriptive, exploratory typology, which used action research as a method. Bardin’s Content Analysis was carried out. Results: a category was created: “Justice versus Injustice” and three subcategories: “Autonomy/Freedom versus Heteronomy/Subordination”; “Communication versus Hermeneutic Problems”; “Contributions versus Conflicts”. Final considerations: Embracement with Risk Classification presents difficulties in its interpretation and effectiveness; there are situations of disrespect that compete against the required ethics. Justice addressed by this study will be achieved by an emergency access system that meets user expectations, recognizing it as a subject of rights.

Metodologia: Trata-se de um estudo descritivo e exploratório, com abordagem qualitativa. Os dados foram coletados por meio de entrevistas em profundidade, no período de setembro a outubro de 2016, tendo como amostra de convivência onze (ex) portadores de hanseníase. A análise dos dados foi feita com base na análise de conteúdo de Bardin. Resultados: Emergiram três categorias: do medo à exclusão social: sentimentos diante descoberta da doença; o discurso do medo: isolamento compulsório e segregação familiar; Fantasmas do passado no presente: marcas sociais da doença. Considerações finais: As percepções acerca da doença evidenciam que marcas do passado ainda refletem no cotidiano social. As conotações negativas associadas à doença reforçam o preconceito e o estigma social, geram intensos abalos psíquicos e promovem constantes isolamentos sociais.Descritores: Hanseníase; Abrigo; Percepção; Estigma Social.THE MAIN MEMORIES AND FEELINGS OF EX –LEPROSY LIVING IN AN ANCIENT LEPROSARIUMObjective: Describe the main memories and feelings of ex –leprosy living in an ancient leprosarium located in the metropolitan region of Belém, State of Pará.

ABSTRACT Objective: to investigate health professionals' knowledge about the concept, assessment and intervention in fatigue in children and adolescents with cancer. Method: exploratory study with qualitative approach, with 53 health professionals (10 nurses, 33 assistant nurses, 3 physicians, 3 nutritionists, 2 psychologists and 2 physical therapists). Semi structured interviews were held, which were recorded and analyzed by means of inductive thematic content analysis. Results: the data were organized around three themes: knowledge of health professionals about fatigue; identification of fatigue and interventions to relieve fatigue. Conclusion: the results indicate the health professionals' limited knowledge about fatigue, as well as the lack of investment in their training and continuing education. Most of all, the lack of research on the theme in the Brazilian context remains a barrier to support improvements in care for this symptom in children and adolescents with cancer.

ABSTRACT Objective: to understand the perception of dignity of patients in palliative care and to identify factors that may increase or decrease the sense of dignity. Method: an exploratory study with a qualitative approach, carried in a Palliative Care Center in São Paulo (Brazil), with the Chochinov’s Dignity Model as theoretical framework and content analysis as methodological framework. The participants of this study were 20 patients in palliative care, assessed through semi-structured interviews based on three questions: "What is dignity for you?", "What increases your dignity?", "What decreases your dignity?" The interviews were recorded with the patients’ authorization, from September to November 2017, and transcribed for content analysis. Results: the analysis of the perception of dignity allowed the identification of three categories: Correct person, Autonomy/independence and Socio-political factors. The factors that increased the sense of dignity were the following: Care, Independence/autonomy, Leisure/positive thinking/being with friends. And those that decreased it were the following: Behaviors/attitudes, Health status and Economic situation. Conclusion: the perception of dignity of patients in palliative care was influenced by health professionals and caregivers. Being a “correct person”, maintaining autonomy, being cared for and respected has increased the sense of dignity. Urban violence and the lack of compliance with accessibility policies have reduced the sense of dignity among palliative care patients.

This is an exploratory study with a qualitative approach, which looks at the adolescent process with HIV/AIDS. The purpose is to identify how the adolescent process occurs, from the perspective of these teenagers and their family caregivers. The investigation was performed in Porto Alegre, RS between May and July 2005, and the subjects were four adolescents and three caregivers. Data were collected by means of interviews, which were subject to the content analysis technique.
