Management of prenatal nursing care at a Health Center in Angola

Nursing care management concepts: scoping review

OBJECTIVES

to clarify the concepts of Nursing Care Management and Nursing Care Administration in the scientific literature, highlighting approximations and distances between the terms.

METHODS

scoping review as per Joanna Briggs Institute protocol and preferred reporting items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analysis extension for Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR). The searches were performed in LILACS, CINAHL, MEDLINE, and Scopus databases.

RESULTS

the qualitative analysis, through content analysis, counted 49 studies published between 2007 and 2020. Hospital care was the most evident level of care. It was identified that nursing care management aims at the macropolitical performance of nurses and mobilizes skills essentially strategic-cognitive, while Nursing Care Administration aims at the micropolitical performance of nurses, requiring essentially strategic-administrative skills.

FINAL CONSIDERATIONS

the study allowed us to propose the conceptualization of the terms and identify the approximations and distances between them.

Considerações Finais: o estudo possibilitou propor a conceituação dos termos e identificar as aproximações e distanciamentos entre eles.

[Interprofessional collaboration for prenatal dental follow up in primary health care]

The aim of this study is to understand interprofessional teams' collaborative practices for prenatal dental follow-up in primary health care. An exploratory, qualitative and descriptive study was carried out, in which workers directly involved in prenatal care in the city of Fortaleza, Brazil were included. A total of 24 individual semi structured in depth interviews were conducted between June and August of 2018. The information was organized based on a thematic analysis, and the hermeneutic dialectic method was used for the theoretical foundation and interpretation. Three discursive categories were identified: professional perceptions about collaborative practice, challenges in interprofessional collaboration, and collaboration practices within the team. The professionals' perception about interprofessional collaboration in maternal and child care was favorable, although in some cases the interdisciplinary work practice was not effective due to the existence of barriers that hindered its fulfillment.
