Abstract Objectives: to evaluate the modified early obstetric warning system (MEOWS) in women after pregnancies in a tertiary hospital in Brazil. Methods: a descriptive study was conducted with 705 hospitalized women. Vital signs (systolic and diastolic blood pressure, heart rate, respiratory rate, temperature) and lochia were registered on medical records and transcribed into the MEOWS chart of physiological parameters. On this graphic chart, yellow alerts were used to present moderate abnormalities in vital signs, while severe abnormalities were presented in red. The presence of at least one red alert or two yellow alerts were triggered to indicate the need for medical evaluation. Results: although abnormalities were found in the physiological parameters of 49.8% of the women identified from MEOWS triggers, medical evaluation was only requested for three patients (0.8%). Conclusions: in a retrospective application of the use of MEOWS showed a significant number of patients had triggered in which the nursing team did not recognize 99.2% of cases. This finding could be attributed to the fact that MEOWS has not been yet adopted in this service as part of the nursing care. The application of this tool would result in a better care because critical situations would be recognized and corrected quickly, avoiding unfavorable outcomes.

It is a descriptive study with quantitative approach that analyzed 151 medical records of patients admitted to an ICU, from September 2014 to February 2015, whose 48 hour and discharge notes were evaluated. Data revealed notes with poor content, which did not express the patients’ situation, nor the nursing care provided. Data concerning date, time, and patient identification were adequate. However, the COREN number and the professional’s signature raised concern given the high percentage of non-compliance regarding ethical and legal aspects.

Abstract: Emergency Department provides first emergency services to patients with threats of death and disability in an integrated manner involving multi disciplines. Patients who come to the Emergency Department are always assessed as 3 priorities, namely priorities 1, 2 and 3. Priority 1 is case/disease with life-threatening emergency or severe emergency; Priority 2 is case/disease with mild emergency; and Priority 3 is non-emergency case/disease. This study was aimed to obtain the Triage profile of patients at Emergency Department of Prof. Dr. R. D. Kandou Hospital Manado. This was a retrospective descriptive study using patients’ medical records. Samples were all patients treated at the Emergency Department of Prof. Dr. R. D. Kandou Hospital from January 2018 until July 2018. The results showed that there were 19,229 patients as samples. Based on sex, most patients were male, meanwhile based on age most were 51-70 years, with the highest number of patients in March 2018. There were 6,913 patients (35.9%) in the orange or emergency category (Priority 2) and 6,130 patients (31.8%) in the yellow category (Priority 3).

Pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) is an infection disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Pulmonary TB remain a major health problem and the most common cause of death in the world especially in developing countries. Pulmonary TB infection could cause clinical manifestation, which is haematology disorders like anemia. Many studies has reported anemia as a common complication in patients with pulmonary TB. This research aims to determine haemoglobin levels and erythrocytes index of patients with pulmonary TB at RSUD Dr. M. Haulussy Ambon in the periods from January 2017 - April 2018. This research uses a descriptive study by using medical records of patients with pulmonary TB. Among 65 patients with pulmonary TB, number of patients with anemia are 44 cases (67,7%) and 21 cases (32,3%) are not anemia. Pulmonary TB with anemia most suffered by male as much 24 cases (72,7%). The age group suffered most is 18-30 years old as much 23 cases (69,7%), but the age group suffered most according to percentage is 51-60 years old as much 80%. The most common types of anemia is hipocromic micrositer as much 23 cases (52,3%). Haemoglobin levels in patients with pulmonary TB are found most below the normal value or anemia and the most common types of anemia is hipocromic micrositer. Needs to be done more research on the analysis of the relation between anemia with pulmonary TB. Keywords: pulmonary tuberculosis, haemoglobin, erythrocytes index

Abstract Background Missed nursing care (MNC) has been linked to patient harm in a growing body of literature. However, this issue is still not adequately investigated in developing countries. The aim of the study is to measure the extent of missed nursing care, to identify its types, and to determine factors contributing to missed nursing care. Methods A cross-sectional design was used. The study was conducted among 50 units at 1762-beds teaching Hospital in Alexandria that employs 1211 nurses in inpatient areas. A sample of 553 nurses were interviewed using the MISSCARE and the N4CAST survey. The MISSCARE survey measured the amount of missed nursing care (MNC) that was experienced on the last worked shift by each nurse. The N4CAST survey was used to collect data about level of non-nursing work carried out by nurses and the nurses’ job satisfaction. Results The overall mean score for the missed nursing care was 2.26 ± 0.96 out of 5, with highest mean score attributed to “Planning” and lowest mean score attributed to “Assessment and Vital Signs” (2.64 and 1.96, respectively). Missed nursing care was significantly associated with number of patients admitted and cared for in the last shift and perceived staffing adequacy. Almost all non-nursing care tasks and most of satisfaction elements showed negative weak correlation with overall missed nursing care. Conclusion Missed Nursing Care is common in study hospital which may endanger patient safety. MNC Missed Nursing Care is positively associated with nursing adequacy. There is no association between MNC and neither nurses’ job satisfaction nor non-nursing tasks. Nursing leaders should monitor missed nursing care and the environmental and staffing conditions associated with it in order to design strategies to reduce such phenomena.

One of the biggest challenges nurses face is the need to justify the quantity and quality of staff for care delivery. For this, management instruments are available which help them to determine the staff needed in the nursing team. This descriptive study aims to evaluate the nursing workload at a specialized clinical and surgical gastroenterology unit. To collect data, the Nursing Activities Score (NAS) was used during 30 consecutive days, with 1080 comments, obtained from the records of 149 patients. The mean NAS score was 34.9% and, considering that each point of NAS corresponds to 0.24 hour, on the average, 8.4 hours of nursing care were required within 24 hours. This means that this profile is of patients who demand intermediate and semi-intensive care, which suggests that the NAS study can be used to evaluate the workload of nurses at that unit.
