Objective: To establish the clinical and epidemiological profile of proximal femoral fractures in elderly patients, contextualizing it with potential etiological risk factors and morbidity and mortality in the period from November 2020 to February 2021. Methods: A cross-sectional study was carried out with 61 patients radiologically diagnosed with proximal femur fracture at the Hospital Geral de Nova Iguaçu, metropolitan region of Rio de Janeiro.

Objective: To analyze and describe through literature the challenges of education and its relationship with new digital technologies during learning in the midst of the covid-19 pandemic in Amazonas. Methods: This is a descriptive research in the form of thematic literature review, with quantitative and qualitative methodological approach in the treatment of data collected from virtual questionnaires (Google form) distributed to 150 students from private and public schools, in the period from 01 to 13 June 2021.

Background: Passive smoking leads to lung impairment and an increased risk of lower respiratory tract illnesses as proven by many studies. Small Cigarette retailers like tea stall and Paan shop owners are exposed to passive Smoking throughout the working hours, and are prone to developing Respiratory Disorders. Aim: To assess the effectiveness of Deep Breathing Exercises on the Peak Expiratory Flow Rate in adult, non-smoking, cigarette retailers using a Peak Flow meter. Method: The study involved 50 Adult, Non-smoking, cigarette retailers exposed to the Environmental Tobacco Smoke.

Using titanium as the base metal of biomaterials has gained attention due to its excellent mechanical properties, biocompatibility, and resistance to corrosion and wear. In this research, Ti6-Al7-Nb (wt%) alloy has been superficially modified by cationic cathode plasma nitration (CCN) in order to improve the pre-existing biocompatible characteristics in the alloy. Four treatment conditions and a standard sample, for comparative purposes, were chosen. Nitriding was implemented using a cathodic cage technique at a different time and temperature conditions, and at constant pressure.

In large number of engineering tasks, heat transfer takes place over time, i.e., physical bodies are in non-stationary (transient) conditions.We will use an implicit numerical method for calculating the temperatures at fixed time intervals for certain nodes of the studied body.

O objetivo dessa Temperature control in computers, mobile devices and other devices is important for their stability. The finite differences method is used to calculate the temperatures in fixed nodes of devices, in the absence of internal heat dissipation and certain boundary conditions of the inner walls.

Background: The femoral artery has been the standard access route for several decades. However, this access route has been associated with increased rates of vascular complications compared to the radial artery access route. The objectives of this study were to describe vascular complications at femoral access site after puncture without transfixation of the artery. Methods: This a was real-world registry (from January 2017 to August 2019) that enrolled 1000 patients (mean age 56±10years) with stable CAD and clinical indication of coronary angiography.

O objetivo da presente pesquisa é analisar a relação do Burnout no trabalho feminino no âmbito da pandemia no Brasil. A pandemia tem feito as pessoas trabalharem mais, seja presencial ou remotamente, e isso, somado ao medo do desemprego, da covid-19 e da cobrança por produtividade, pode levar à exaustão mental. Neste momento, em que as condições de trabalho especiais que a pandemia tem nos obrigando faz com que essas sensações, esses sintomas, esse Burnout aumente.

O Acolhimento com Classificação de Risco às gestantes necessita de uma atenção qualificada as particularidades destas e requer uma escuta qualificada e investigações minuciosas às queixas apresentadas, assim, o profissional mais indicado à função é o enfermeiro, uma vez que sua formação é extremamente interdisciplinar. Objetivo: compreender os conflitos éticos na tomada de decisão dos enfermeiros no acolhimento com classificação de risco às gestantes.

The development of simulation models, that realistically represent the regulatory/ commercial environment in which the company is inserted, is necessary for it to understand the behavior of some variables needed for decision making.
