Background: Numerous prognostic scores have been developed and used in intensive care; however, the applicability and effectiveness of these scores in critically ill patients with acute kidney injury may vary due to the characteristics of this population.
Objective: To assess the predictive capacity of the Simplified Acute Physiology Score III (SAPS III), Sequential Sepsis-related Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) and Nursing Activities Score (NAS) prognostic scoring systems for acute kidney injury in critically ill patients.
Methods: Cohort, prospective and quantitative study with follow-up of 141 critical patients in intensive care.
Objective: To verify the impact of renal recovery on mortality in non-critically ill patients with acute kidney injury.
Method: A prospective cohort study was carried out in a public hospital in the Federal District with patients with acute kidney injury admitted to a non-critical care unit. Renal recovery was assessed based on the ratio of serum creatinine to baseline creatinine and the patient was followed up for 6 months.
Objective: to investigate evidence that indicates the contribution of realistic high, medium or low fidelity simulation to acquire knowledge, skills and attitudes in safe medication administration by nursing students.
Methods: an integrative review of experimental studies from MEDLINE, LILACS, Web of Science, Scopus and Science Direct. The descriptors "nursing students", "simulation", "high fidelity simulation training", "medication errors" and "pharmacology" were used to identify 14 studies that answered the research question, and were assessed for accuracy methodological level and level of evidence.
