- Try to be a nurse. It’s Cool! - manual de apoioPublication . Cerqueira, Carla; Reisinho, Maria Da Conceição; Carvalho Pinto, Cristina; Oliveira, Manuel Fernando; Lima, Ligia; Cruz, Márcia; Barbieri-Figueiredo, MC; Nilza Caldevilla, Maria; Marques, Paulo; Parente, Paulo; Cruz, SandraA área da saúde cativou desde sempre os jovens, pelos desafios que comporta, pela proximidade e relação com os outros, saudáveis ou doentes; e a enfermagem em particular tem-se constituído como uma opção de grande significado, valendo por isso conhecer por dentro a sua riqueza de conteúdos, o seu dinamismo, a diversidade de abordagens. Uma semana entre nós, no ambiente onde tudo começa a acontecer, proporcionar-te-á uma ideia mais concreta sobre o que é ser enfermeiro na actualidade, sem esquecer o caminho que outros percorreram, mas dando-te a possibilidade de experimentar nos contextos de prática laboratorial, práticas em domínios que vão das crianças aos adultos, recorrendo a simuladores, manequins e dispositivos utilizados no dia-a-dia destes profissionais. A evolução e as mudanças que já se fazem sentir na sociedade, abrem novas perspectivas e caminhos nesta área do saber, que estamos dispostos a ajudar-te a descobrir.

- Non-pharmacological interventions in the control of urinary incontinence and the instruments that allow the diagnosis: integrative reviewPublication . Nilza Caldevilla, Maria; Carvalho Pinto, Cristina; Cerqueira, Carla; Ramos, José; Teixeira, Leonor OlímpiaIntroduction: Urinary incontinence is a major health problem resulting in physical, psychological and social changes with economic repercussions on the health system. Is a multifactorial condition associated with age-related changes and disorders of the genitourinary system, which corroborates the fact that it is the most often recurring geriatric syndrome. Aims: To identify non-pharmacological interventions for adults with urinary incontinence and to identify tools for urinary incontinence diagnosis in adults. Method: An integrative review study design was completed. Two electronic databases was search (MEDLINE and Web of Science). Three independent reviewers searched databases according to a predetermine inclusion and exclusion criteria. Results: Twelve articles were included in the review. Eleven articles mentioned non-pharmacological interventions, such as physical therapies, lifestyle strategies, behavioural therapies and alternative conservative management options. These interventions should be targeted and individualized to the type of incontinence to result in health gains for the population. One article mentioned an assessment tool for urinary incontinence - The Gaudenz-Fragebogen tool. The evaluation tools can help to systematize the diagnostic activity and consequently improve the clinical practice in the field of urinary incontinence. Conclusion: In care conception, nurses should target their interventions to personal data to address individual symptoms and use assessment tools that can help in the differential diagnosis of UI. Then, to advancing the quality and rigor of nursing care, we advocate that providing nurses with skills in attaining a differential diagnosis of UI presents an added value to the improvement of quality of care in a multidisciplinary context.

- Impact of a simulation-based interprofessional workshop (LINKS) on Portuguese healthcare students’ perception of roles and competencies: a quasi-experimental pilot studyPublication . Sa-Couto, Carla; Fernandes, Filipa; Carvalho Pinto, Cristina; Loureiro, Elizabete; Cerqueira, CarlaIntroduction There is a scarcity of simulation-based interprofessional (IP) programs in Portugal, with a notorious absence in undergraduate education. This paper describes the first step towards the development of an interprofessional education (IPE) undergraduate program, namely the implementation and preliminary assessment of the workshop LINKS – Lifting INterprofessional Knowledge through Simulation. The aim of this pilot study was to assess the educational effect of LINKS, in medical and nursing undergraduate students’ attitudes towards IP teamwork and collaborative practices, and their perception of roles and competencies within an IP team. Methods A total of 23 final-year students participated in the workshop. Teams of three or four elements (medical and nursing students) were exposed to two critical patient management simulation scenarios. To assess the impact of the workshop on students’ perception of IP collaborative practice, two surveys (ATTITUDES and IPEC) were applied before and after the workshop. Additionally, students’ opinion/satisfaction towards the workshop and its curricular integration was explored. Results Students’ awareness of the relevancy of IP learning and self-competency in IP practice improved. For all subdomains and overall scores, statistically significant differences were found when comparing the pre- and post-scores, for both medical and nursing students, in both surveys. All students agreed that the workshop added educational value to their training, and recommended its integration in the formal curriculum, with a first round in the penultimate year and repeated in the last year. Discussion Considering the pre–post test results and anecdotal comments shared during the session, we may infer that this single IPE event contributed to a clearer understanding of the team dynamic and individual role definition, increased the motivation to engage in collaborative practice between physicians and nurses and potentially challenged pre-existent stereotypes of each professional group. These findings corroborate the need for sustainable simulation-based IP programs, integrated in the undergraduate curricula, promoting early clinical interactions of different professional groups. We envision that the results of this study can help to inform future curriculum planning and provide useful insights that can be used within and between Portuguese institutions to develop a common IP undergraduate program.
