The study was planned to determine the most common nursing diagnoses according to NANDA International (NANDA-I) taxonomy and difficulties experienced in using of nursing process in COVID-19 outbreak. The sample of the descriptive cross-sectional study consisted of nurses cared for patients with COVID-19 ( n = 114). Average age of nurses is 26.86 ± 6.68. Commonly determined nursing diagnoses according to NANDA-I taxonomy in patients with COVID-19 were imbalanced nutrition (66.7%), impaired gas exchange (40.4%), insomnia (21.1%), acute confusion (31.6%), hopelessness (96.5%), difficulty playing caregiver (84.2%), anxiety (38.6%) willingness to strengthen religious bond (71.9%), risk for infection (64.9%), nausea (49.1%). Twenty-four-years old and younger, high school graduates, caring for intubated patients, and those who stated that they did not use nursing diagnosis had more difficulty in using nursing process (<0.05). The use of nursing diagnoses and process for patients with COVID-19 is extremely important in ensuring individual and qualified nursing care.

OBJECTIVE: To identify the difficult and easy aspects of performing the different stages of the nursing process, according to the reports of nurses working at Hospital São Paulo. METHODS: Eighty-three nurses from 20 different hospital units, where the nursing process was regularly implemented, answered structured research questionnaires. RESULTS: Nursing diagnosis and evolution were the phases where nurses reported more difficulties. Most of the difficult and easy points reported are related to the nurses' theoretical and practical knowledge to perform the phases of the process. CONCLUSION: Insufficient knowledge becomes an obstacle for the nurses' compliance to the nursing process. An evaluation of theoretical and practical teaching of the nursing process during undergraduate courses is recommended, as well as continuous education in hospital settings.

RESEARCH OBJECTIVE: The aim of this paper is to discuss the efficiency of teaching process with use of the digitalized methods, emphasis laid on the use of video case studies. RESEARCH PROBLEM AND METHODS: Since the vast majority of the students are now highly digitalized, their expectations towards the methods applied to teaching changes compared to past practices. Therefore with the use of observation of the in-class interactions and the quiz results of the teaching sessions, we compare the efficiency of using video and traditional case studies. The study is conducted on the sample of 119 undergraduate students of Inter­national Business. THE PROCESS OF ARGUMENTATION: The paper starts with a brief summary of the existing research on using video case studies in teaching. Next we describe the reasoning for our own empirical research, followed by the research design and method explanation. We discuss the results in division for qualitative in-class observations and quantitative accuracy of the in-class quiz. The paper ends with conclusions including study limitations and future recommendations.  RESEARCH RESULTS: The study shows that application of up-to-date technological tools brings better efficiency to the teaching-learning process. The students perception of the subject is higher if the knowledge is passed with use – in our case – of the video. CONCLUSIONS, INNOVATIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS: The study confirms that diversifying the teaching methods and bringing tech­nology into class allows more efficient learning process. Therefore, it is recom­mended that – if possible – educators incorporate more interactive, virtual tools into their teaching programs.

Surgical Centers are essential and extremely complex sectors in health institutions, where the teams that compose them must act together so that the main objectives are achieved: that is, the patients' surgeries happen in the best possible way, with the minimization of damages and welcoming patients and their families. The need for a multidisciplinary approach is intensified in surgeries with unique specificities, such as pediatric neurosurgeries, where problems are anticipated and interventions are performed before patients are harmed. The article is an experience report of the activities of the Nurse at the Surgical Center of a Large University Hospital in the interior of the state of São Paulo related to the planning and execution of pediatric neurosurgery procedures. The results include the description of direct and indirect care activities in nursing care planning, the nursing process, the main nursing diagnoses found in pediatric neurosurgery patients.

The aim of this review was to map the body of literature on data, diagnoses and interventions addressing the nursing focus “anxiety.” A scoping review methodology was employed. The Joanna Briggs guidelines for scoping reviews and PRISMA checklist for scoping reviews were followed. Electronic database searches (MEDLINE, CINAHL and Web of Science) located 829 articles. From the total of articles located, 165 were included. The nursing diagnosis “anxiety” can be considered a parent diagnosis, from which other children diagnoses are derived. Data that lead to nursing diagnoses in the anxiety domain can be divided into cognitive and somatic data. Some interventions, such as educational and music-based interventions, seem to be useful to address nursing diagnoses in the anxiety domain. The findings of this review can add substantial value for systematising the nursing process related to the focus “anxiety.” Therefore, reaching consensus regarding this nursing process seems highly relevant.
