Aim: Evaluate the effect of high frequency vibration associated with cryotherapy on the level of pain related to the administration of influenza vaccine by intramuscular route in adults.
Method: A randomized clinical trial was conducted with 350 adults who received the influenza vaccine.
Objective: to validate a Standard Operating Procedure on the intramuscular vaccine administration technique in adults using high frequency vibration associated with cryotherapy.
Methods: a literature review on intramuscular vaccination practice using a vibration device associated with cryotherapy. Then, a form was created to validate the instrument, detailing the items that were assessed by judges following recommendations in the literature.
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify nursing interventions and activities for patients with multiple traumas who have variations in physical mobility.
Methods: We used integrative literature review following Whittemore and Knafl method and the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses' guidelines and adopting the Oxford Center for Evidence-Based Classification Medicine - Levels of Evidence. The data collection was carried out between October and December 2019 and updated in May 2022, in the following databases: Virtual Health Library, Cochrane Library, Excerpta Medica dataBASE, Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System Online, PubMed®, SciVerse Scopus, The Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature, and Web of Science.
Background: Vaccination is one of the most effective strategies for prevention and eradication of immunopreventable diseases, but community acceptance of vaccination can be influenced by different factors, such as pain and anxiety. The use of high-frequency vibration associated with cryotherapy has been used to manage pain and anxiety during the vaccination process in children, but studies with adults are still scarce. This study aims to evaluate the effect of high-frequency vibration associated with cryotherapy on the levels of self-reported pain and anxiety related to administration of the Influenza vaccine intramuscularly in adults.

Methods: Methodological study, of the content analysis type, with 49 specialists who reached a score equal to or greater than 5, according to Fehring's criteria. Thirty elements were evaluated for relevance, clarity, and precision.
Objective: To assess the accuracy measurements for predisposing and precipitating Risk Factors for delirium in an adult Intensive Care Unit.
Method: Cohort, prospective study with patients over 18 who had been hospitalized for over 24 hours and were able to communicate. The patients were assessed once a day until the onset of delirium or permanence in the Intensive Care Unit.
Objective: To generate a Classification Tree for the correct inference of the Nursing Diagnosis Fluid Volume Excess (00026) in chronic renal patients on hemodialysis.
Method: Methodological, cross-sectional study with patients undergoing renal treatment. The data were collected through interviews and physical evaluation, using an instrument with socio-demographic variables, related factors, associated conditions and defining characteristics of the studied diagnosis.
Objective: to construct the conceptual and operational definitions of the defining and conceptual characteristics of the related factors of the nursing diagnosis (ND) hypothermia (00006) of NANDA-I, 2015-2017, in adult patients in the perioperative period.
Method: an integrative literature review in the Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System Online, Cochrane Library, The Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature and in Latin & American Literature in Health Sciences databases.
Results: 2,041 articles were found, 95 selected for reading in full and 24 used to construct such definitions.
Objective: To clinically validate the nursing diagnosis, disturbed sleep pattern (00198), in patients with acute coronary syndrome.
Data Collection: A clinical validation study using the patient history, Visual Analog Sleep scale, and diagnostic inference. Accuracy techniques were performed.
Objective: to present the knowledge produced about sleep and Acute Coronary Syndrome in order to assist in the elaboration of the operational and conceptual definitions of the defining characteristics of the nursing diagnosis Disturbed Sleep Pattern (00198).
Method: integrative review in the following databases: COCHRANE; SCOPUS; MEDLINE (Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System Online) via Pubmed; LILACS (Latin American and Caribbean Health Science Literature Database); CINAHL (Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature) and EMBASE (The Excerpta Medical Database). At the end of the search, 2827 studies were found, 43 were selected for reading, and 10 were included in the review.
Objective: to develop the operational and conceptual definitions of the defining characteristics and related factors of the nursing diagnosis Acute Pain (00132) for nonverbal critically ill patients.
Method: integrative literature review in the databases/libraries: Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System Online (MEDLINE via Pubmed), Cochrane Library, The Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature (CINAHL) and Latin American & Caribbean Health Sciences Literature (LILACS).
Results: 799 results were found in the literature, of which 80 studies were selected for full text reading and 16 were used in the elaboration of definitions for the 17 defining characteristics and three related factors of the nursing diagnosis.
