To evaluate the theoretical knowledge and skills of nursing interns on cardiopulmonary arrest.A descriptive study has been performed with 28 nursing students from a public institution in the north of Ceará. To collect data, a questionnaire has been applied with 24 objective questions about basic life support and simulated cardiorespiratory arrest situation. In the data analysis, descriptive statistics and binomial testing were used. Academic skills deficit was evidenced especially in the depth (p = <0,000) and correct speed (p = <0,000) of the compressions.

The purpose of this research study is to develop a novel, simple, precise, accurate and economical method for determination of related substances in Brexpiprazole API. The chromatographic method for determination of related substances was developed on Kromasil C8, (250 mm x 4.6 mm, 5 µm) Column with tertiary gradient program. The mobiles phase used for separation was (a) Dipotassium hydrogen phosphate buffer with pH 5.5 ±0.05, (b) Mix of 9 volumes of acetonitrile and 1 volume of Tetrahydrofuran and (c) Methanol.

Alcoholism is considered a public health problem, because it has consequences for society. In this aspect, the study aimed to identify the implications and repercussions of alcoholism on family relationships according to the Calgary Family Assessment Model. This is an exploratory descriptive research of the type of case study, carried out by master's students with the family of an alcoholic subject, accompanied by the Family Health Strategy, Sobral - CE in May 2016. The Calgary Model was used as a reference methodological approach to the family approach.

The aim of the study was to evaluate the sensory acceptability among children of pizzas in which different levels of pumpkin skin flour (PSF) were added. Additionally, we wanted to determine the physicochemical composition of the control product and of the one with a higher PSF level, and which formulations would have an acceptability level similar to the control product. Five pizza formulations were developed with the addition of different levels of PSF: F1 (0%), F2 (12%), F3 (18%), F4 (24%) and F5 (30%).

Objective: Respiratory insufficiency is the main cause of admission to intensive care units and the noninvasive ventilation (NIV) is an alternative for ventilatory support indicated for the treatment of respiratory distress in the intra-hospital services and home care. When considering the different employment possibilities of noninvasive ventilation and its complications, in this study, we aim to answer the question: What is the outcome of using NIV in immunocompromised patients?

This present work was undertaken to evaluate the effects of mineral manure and watering on the production of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) with a view to increase the yield of common bean in Kongo Central Province. The test was installed according to a device in Split-Split stud including 3 replications.

The atmosphere of the HR382 (φCas, F0Ia) star is studied by the atmosphere model. The effective temperature Teff of the star and the surface gravity g are determined by comparing the observational and theoretical estimates of β, [c1] and Q photometric indexes: Teff = 6800±200K, logg =1.2 ± 0.2. Based on FeII lines the microturbulent velocity is determined: ξt = 6km/sec. In the atmosphere of the star the iron and carbon abundances are calculated and compared with the abundance in the Sun.

The powders of the sheets of tobacco and tephrosia, were tested under the environmental conditions of the store of conservation of seeds (To and Hr) with various amounts on the conservation of common bean in order to highlight the optimal amount which makes it possible to fight against the beetle of bean Acanthoscelidesobiectus say. The test revealed a very marked activity of the powder of tobacco with regard to Acanthoscelidesobtectus, whereas the powder of tephrosia did not show any effectiveness, whatever the amount.

This article discusses the supply chain management of sweet potato flour as a tool to analyze the characteristics of the sectors involved in the production process, and allows the identification of strengths and weaknesses along this chain. The methodology employed was analysis of the productive chain for case study, conducted through interviews persons belonging to various links in the supply chain, seeking to identify how it works and how it organizes the chain of sweet potato flour in the State of Sergipe.
