Health professionals may follow original research via synopses received on e-mail. Synopses are written from original studies selected for validity and relevance. We explored professionals’ concerns about synopses (qualitative multiple case study). Of 28 participants, 17 (60.7%) reported concerns: 15 with the content of synopses and four with the format.Les professionnels de la santé reçoivent des synopsis de recherche originale par courriel (synopsis d’articles sélectionnés pour leur pertinence et leur validité). Nous avons exploré les préoccupations des professionnels concernant les synopsis (étude de cas multiple – recherche qualitative). Parmi 28 participants, 17 (60,7 %) avaient des préoccupations : 15 avec le contenu des synopsis et quatre avec le format.

Au 21e siècle, l'acquisition de compétences numériques est importante afin de rester à jour avec les avancements technologiques qui affectent la vie quotidienne. Cherchant à mieux comprendre l'acquisition des compétences numériques, ce projet de recherche vise les environnements d’apprentissage riches en technologies, plus précisément les laboratoires de fabrication numérique. Nous avons réalisé une étude de cas multiples dans 4 écoles dans la province canadienne du Nouveau‑Brunswick (N.-B.) où nous avons capturé un total de 23 vidéos d’élèves au travail dans des laboratoires de fabrication numérique. Les résultats démontrent que la pensée critique, la créativité, la collaboration, la communication et la résolution de problèmes sont mises en évidence dans les laboratoires de fabrication numérique. In the 21st century, many school systems are turning to the development of skills as an educational goal, including digital skills. However, the current scientific literature on digital skills remains insufficient, both in terms of their definition and the processes of their development. Our research project aims to examine the presence of digital skills in learning environments that are considered technology-rich, specifically makerspaces. We conducted a multiple case study in three schools in New Brunswick where we observed students in the process of working on a project in a makerspace setting, and our analysis focused on the digital skills demonstrated. The results suggest that the type of activities that young people do in a makerspace, as well their age and the time they spend in the makerspace, can all influence the development of digital skills.

Abstract Objective: To describe the development of care for children with special health needs in Paraná services of homecare. Method: Quantitative, descriptive, exploratory, and multiple case study was applied. Data were collected by telephone and e-mail, with professionals from the eight services of homecare of Parana, from October 2016 to January 2017. The data was treated with descriptive statistics analysis. Results: Among 35 children in homecare, 25.7% had cerebral palsy, 60% had a tracheostomy. The care provided by the services includes a management of tubes, administration of medication, changing dressings, caregiver guidance for tracheostomy suctioning and a management of diet. Conclusions and implications for practice: Services weaknesses were mainly related to low utilization of the singular therapeutic project and the counter-reference to primary care. The flow of successful practices are developed in the municipality of an isolated manner. Showing positive experiences promotes reflection and improvement of the work process of caring for children with special health needs in homecare.

Abstract Objective: To understand the feelings, senses, perceptions and perspectives of Users regarding access to vaccination in Primary Health Care. Method: This is a Holistic-Qualitative Multiple Case Study, based on Comprehensive Sociology of Everyday Life with 74 participants representing four microregions of health in the Western Extended Region of Minas Gerais. Data collection occurred between June 2016 and April 2017. In order to analyse the data, we used the Thematic Content Analysis, obeying the technique of cross-synthesis of the cases. Results: The results reveal the senses perceived by Users in the experience of vaccination and the feelings regarding care, showing that interpersonal relations between population and health professionals are determinant in the access to vaccination. The constant expansion of the official immunization schedule increased access, however, geographical and social aspects, the lack of knowledge about vaccination and the recurrent lack of immunobiological were referred to as barriers to immunization access. Final considerations: We emphasized the need to reinforce more equitable policies and effective communication as a means to promote the credibility of the services with Users.

Zusammenfassung. Hintergrund: Einrichtungen der stationären Langzeitpflege investieren seit Jahren Ressourcen in die Entwicklung der Kinästhetikkompetenz der Pflegenden. Aus aktuellen Studien geht hervor, dass die Implementierung, bzw. die nachhaltige Förderung der Kinästhetikkompetenz problematisch ist, vertiefte Erkenntnisse zu den Ursachen fehlen jedoch. Fragestellung: Welche Hemmnisse verhindern eine nachhaltige Implementierung von Kinästhetik in Einrichtungen der stationären Langzeitpflege? Methode: Es wurde eine Multiple Case-Study in drei Einrichtungen der deutschsprachigen Schweiz durchgeführt. Aus leitfadengestützten Interviews und (fallbezogener) Literatur zum externen Kontext wurden in den Within-Case-Analysen die Daten induktiv verdichtet und diese Ergebnisse in der Cross-Case-Synthese miteinander verglichen und abstrahierend zusammengeführt. Ergebnisse: Die Synthese zeigt, dass die Implementierung von Kinästhetik innerhalb der Einrichtung auf drei verschiedenen Ebenen – der Leitungs-, Pflegeteam- und Pflegeperson-Ebene – als auch durch externe Faktoren negativ beeinflusst werden kann. Schlussfolgerungen: In der Pflegepraxis und -wissenschaft sowie im Gesundheitswesen benötigt es ein grundlegendes Verständnis von Kinästhetik und wie dieses im Kontext des professionellen Pflegehandelns einzuordnen ist. Insbesondere Leitungs- und implementierungsverantwortliche Personen müssen mögliche Hemmnisse kennen, um entsprechende Strategien entwickeln zu können.
