Title: Enfermagem transcultural na Amazônia: um relato de experiência com a comunidade indígena Sateré-Mawé Abstract: Indigenous health in Brazil has historically faced challenges related to cultural marginalization, limited access to health services, and the undervaluation of traditional knowledge. In this context, transcultural nursing emerges as a fundamental approach to promoting humanized and culturally congruent care. This study aims to report the experience of a nursing student during participation in the UNIVIDA mission with the Sateré-Mawé indigenous community located in the Amazon region. This is a descriptive experience report based on direct observation and participation in healthcare and educational activities carried out within the indigenous territory. The actions developed included health screenings, preventive guidance, clinical referrals, and interaction with traditional care practices, such as the use of local phytotherapy. The experience highlighted challenges related to language barriers, gender relations, and difficulties in continuous access to health services, as well as the need to adapt professional practices to the cultural specificities of the community. It is concluded that transcultural nursing represents an essential tool for improving indigenous healthcare, reinforcing the importance of inclusive public policies and professional training sensitive to cultural diversity.

Title: Pressão de colonização e infecção de corrente sanguínea por Staphylococcus coagulase-negativo em Unidade de Terapia Intensiva Neonatal Abstract: Neonates hospitalized in Neonatal Intensive Care Units (NICU) are more susceptible to infections, especially bloodstream infections (BSI) due to the use of invasive devices, such as central venous access, among other factors. One of the main causes of these infections is coagulase-negative Staphylococcus (CoNS), resulting from skin colonization at the insertion site or the catheter hub. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of coagulase-negative Staphylococcus colonization and investigate whether colonization pressure impacted the development of infection in critically ill neonates. A cohort study was conducted based on a prospective study on the pathogenesis of catheter-related BSI in neonates admitted to the NICU of the Federal University of Uberlândia University Hospital (HC-UFU) from December 2010 to August 2012. The study was approved by the UFU Research Ethics Committee. Samples were isolated from blood, catheter tips and hubs, skin, and mucous membranes, being identified and evaluated by the HC-UFU Microbiology Laboratory using Vitek II® (Biomérieux, France). Most neonates presented risk factors such as premature rupture of membranes (68.6%), gestational age < 40 weeks (97.1%), APGAR score < 7 (87.1%), PICC and gastric tubes (> 90%), and weight < 1,500g (67.1%). Although 18.6% were only colonized, 92.3% of which by CoNS, no statistical significance was observed in this analysis. A strong statistical association was found between colonization pressure and the development of infection (p = 0.001). It is concluded that colonization pressure was a significant factor in the development of infection.

Title: Relato de experiência: uso consciente e saudável das telas, uma oficina terapêutica Abstract: This experience report describes a therapeutic workshop conducted with adolescents served by the Child and Adolescent Psychosocial Care Center (CAPSi) in Uberlândia, Minas Gerais. The workshop, entitled "Conscious Use of Screens," was developed by undergraduate nursing students from the Federal University of Uberlândia (UFU). The objective was to present the experience of undergraduate nursing students from the Federal University of Uberlândia (UFU) during a therapeutic workshop developed at the Child and Adolescent Psychosocial Care Center (CAPSi) focusing on the conscious use of digital technologies in the mental health of young people. The activity was structured in five stages: a welcoming activity, storytelling, a discussion circle, an educational game, and the creation of a digital hygiene plan. The methodology adopted was based on the National Mental Health Policy and the principles of the Psychiatric Reform, seeking to integrate care strategies centered on listening, active participation, and the promotion of autonomy. The results showed that adolescents had affective bonds with technology, often using it as a coping mechanism for loneliness, anxiety, and social exclusion. The workshop proved effective as a therapeutic and educational tool, promoting the expression of feelings and the collective construction of self-care strategies. The role of the nurse in conducting integrated psychosocial practices is highlighted, combining therapeutic resources, diagnostic classification with interventions, and expected outcomes within the adolescents' lived context. The experience reinforces the importance of nursing in child and adolescent mental health care through ethical, educational, and humanized actions.

Title: Mapeamento do estilo de liderança da equipe de enfermagem Abstract: Objective: To identify and characterize the predominant leadership style among nurses in the Adult Intensive Care Units and Medical Clinic of a university hospital. Methods: This is a descriptive and analytical field study with a cross-sectional design, conducted with a convenience sample of 32 nurses. Data collection took place at a single point in time, using a sociodemographic and occupational questionnaire, the Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire (MLQ), and the Authentic Leadership Questionnaire (ALQ). The Binomial test was used to assess associations between sociodemographic variables, leadership styles, and work units, from August to September 2025. Results: Transformational leadership was predominant (87.5%), followed by transactional leadership (12.5%), with no occurrence of laissez-faire leadership and no significant differences between units. Authentic leadership presented moderate levels, associated with institutional service time between 11 and 20 years and the night shift. Conclusion: The study contributed to the understanding of the influence of nurse leadership on the quality of care, supporting strategies for improving management and patient safety in the hospital context.
