Objective: To identify the factors related to attempted suicide in a group of children and adolescents hospitalized in the Mental Health Unit at the «Evaristo Garcia» Hospital Universitario del Valle and in their family groups.Materials and methods: Exploratory-descriptive research. An assessment was used according to Marjory Gordon's functional health patterns. Sixteen minors and 14 of their parents or legal guardians were surveyed.Findings: Protective factors were identified, especially in values and beliefs and role-relationship patterns, and risk factors in patterns of the health management perception and tolerance-confrontation to stress. In addition, changes in patterns were observed: metabolic nutritional, activity-exercise, and sleep-rest.Conclusion: The risk factors identified, as well as the presence of a triggering event and the availability of a suicide method increase the risk suicide attempt in children and adolescents. The application of the nursing care process facilitated obtaining information and identifying risk factors related to attempted suicide becoming a tool of the discipline, which contributes to systematization and nursing research.

Minors with and without migration background can have different risk factors and triggering reasons for self-harming and suicidal behaviour. We retrospectively analysed the data of 192 children and adolescents to investigate the transcultural differences in self-harming, as well as suicidal behaviour in Austrian, Turkish, and Bosnian/Croatian/Serbian (BCS)-speaking patients, who were treated in an emergency out-patient clinic in Vienna. Our results showed transcultural differences in both behaviours. In all groups, females had higher rates of suicide attempts and self-harming behaviour than males. While Turkish-speaking patients received treatment more often, after attempted suicide, Austrians and BCS-speaking patients needed treatment more often for acute stress disorder. Suicide attempts and self-harming behaviours were triggered most frequently by intrafamilial problems, but more frequently in migrant patients. Turkish-speaking patients were at a more than 2 times (OR = 2.21, 95%CI: 1.408–3.477) higher risk for suicide attempts, and were triggered almost 3 times (OR = 2.94, 95%CI: 1.632–5.304) more often by interfamilial conflicts. The suicide attempts of BCS-speaking minors were more often caused by relationship and separation crises (OR = 2.56, 95%CI: 1.148–5.705). These transcultural differences in suicidal and self-harming behaviour of minors, demand an increase of transcultural competence to provide optimal treatment of migrant children.

The Individual

This study sought to verify the records on file and the number of cases of attempted suicide among children and adolescents who were attended by Emergency Care health professionals in the municipality of Matozinhos, Minas Gerais, Brazil. Documentary and descriptive research was conducted, the data for which was collected by means of an investigation of Outpatient Records from 2008 to 2010. Of the 73,000 files evaluated, those dealing with cases of attempted suicide among children and adolescents between the age of 3 and 18 years were selected. It was revealed that the health professionals, particularly physicians and nurses, fail to register the cases appropriately, invalidating information about the problem and potential prevention measures. The conclusion reached was that underreporting and the discrepancy of the diagnoses which were not duly referred to the competent agencies require rethinking and reviewing medical practices, and taking a systematic and careful look to address the individual as a complex whole.

ABSTRACT Objective: to describe the nursing care of the neonate in continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) with prong analyzing them in the light of the systematization of nursing care / process. Method: Descriptive research, qualitative approach. We interviewed 30 nursing professionals from the neonatal intensive and intermediate care units of a school hospital in Maceió / Alagoas, from August / 2016 to January / 2017, through a semi-structured interview, in the light of Bardin's content analysis. Results: Although unit nurses are aware of the use of CPAP and the care associated with this therapy, mid-level professionals still find it difficult to systematize systematized knowledge about the system. The tripod's correlation between CPAP, the formation of nasal lesions and the assistance provided was highlighted. Conclusion: It is necessary to carry out training, such as raising the awareness of professionals about the importance of keeping records up to date and applying protocols.

Abstract The functional health patterns model and nursing care process based on the nursing diagnosis of an individual with the diagnosis of COVID-19 were reviewed in this case report. An individual with the diagnosis of COVID-19 was evaluated in line with the functional health patterns (FHP) model, nursing diagnosis was made and a nursing care process was implemented in this case report. The data were collected by the researcher through observation and evaluation. N.B. was evaluated in line with the FHP nursing care model on 7 to 14 August 2020, and nursing procedures were implemented for these diagnoses and the results were evaluated.

Optimal Health

Health management is the whole process of conducting the comprehensive monitoring, analysis, and evaluation of the health of individuals or groups, providing health consultation and guidance, and intervening in risk factors of health, to mobilize individual and collective initiatives, and to make effective use of limited resources to achieve optimal health results. In this paper, through the study of the development status of health management at home and abroad, in combination with the health management needs of average families, using visual basic6.0 language, it designs and implements a health management system covering three levels of the health information management, health risk assessment and health education; the system can electronically store personal medical information, can analyze medical data and provide report forms, and can evaluate risk factors of people’s health, assess risks of chronic diseases, and assess health quality, and can also provide a fully functional health education, such as daily health care, information of common diseases, and pharmacopoeia information.

AbstractThe aim of this systematic review was to identify and summarize evidence for the association between muscle strength (MS) and metabolic syndrome (MetS), and MS and combinations of risk factors for MetS in children and adolescents. Five databases (Medline/PubMed, EBSCO, Scielo, Scopus, and Web of Knowledge) were searched up to November 2019 with complementary reference list searches. Inclusion criteria were studies that investigated the relationship between MS and MetS or MS and combinations of risk factors for MetS in children and adolescents (≤19 years of age). Risk of bias was assessed using standard procedures. From the total of 15,599 articles initially identified, 13 articles were included, representing 11,641 children and adolescents. Higher MS values were associated with lower risk for MetS or combinations of risk factors for MetS (n=11/13 studies). Of the total of included studies, about 23.1% (03/13) were longitudinal and all included studies were classified as having a moderate risk of bias. This review provides preliminary evidence for a beneficial relationship between MS and MetS among children and adolescents. Additionally, although the body of evidence points to the beneficial relationship between higher MS and lower risk for combination of factors for MetS in children and adolescents, this relationship is inconclusive.
