Abstract

The aging of the global population has led to an increasing incidence of skin tears (friction injuries) among hospitalized older adults, yet significant gaps in knowledge regarding prevention and holistic management of this condition persist among health professionals. This is a theoretical-reflective essay based on the academic and professional experiences of the authors, contextualized within the Brazilian nursing framework. No systematic inclusion/exclusion criteria were applied, and no delimited temporal scope was established, as the study draws upon theoretical foundations selected by the authors to address the topic comprehensively. The study identified three key risk factor domains for skin tears in older adults skin condition, mobility impairment, and general health status encompassing both intrinsic factors (age more than 60 years, polypharmacy, reduced skin turgor, impaired mobility) and extrinsic factors (inadequate bed linen, elevated headboard position, absence of a caregiver). A checklist tool was developed to enable systematic risk stratification (low, moderate, and high risk) and guide preventive nursing interventions aligned with the Nursing Interventions Classification (NIC) across four domains: basic physiological, complex physiological, behavioral, and safety. Holistic nursing care, grounded in structured assessment and evidence-based intervention, is essential to address skin tears in the elderly. The proposed checklist provides a simple, applicable tool to equip nurses, caregivers, and patients themselves for effective self-care and prevention of friction injuries in clinical and community settings.

Abstract

Burns in children are an emergency condition that can lead to shock, infection, functional limitations, and both physical and psychological discomfort. Comprehensive management involves pharmacological approaches, including the use of analgesics to reduce pain and antibiotics to prevent or treat infections and related complications. This condition is a concern for nurses because comprehensive and holistic nursing care can reduce complications and prevent mortality. This study aims to examine the effectiveness of evidence-based nursing care in improving comfort among children with burn injuries. This research uses a literature review method analyzing scientific articles from Google Scholar published from 2020 to 2025. The results indicate that children’s comfort improves through optimal pain management, early infection detection, exudate removal, and family education, as well as through therapeutic interventions such as honey therapy, Negative Pressure Wound Therapy (NPWT), physiotherapy, and wound care to support functional recovery. In addition, multidisciplinary collaboration among nurses, surgeons, nutritionists, and rehabilitation specialists has been shown to accelerate healing and reduce stress in children. These findings confirm that structured, responsive, and collaborative nursing care plays a significant role in enhancing comfort and accelerating the recovery process of pediatric burn patients. Overall, strengthening the implementation of essential nursing care can speed up the healing process and reduce both the physical and emotional burden experienced by children with burn injuries

Abstract

Hypertension is a non-communicable disease with high prevalence and a substantial risk of serious complications if not properly managed. Patients’ perceptions of hypertension play a crucial role in shaping health-related behaviors, particularly medication adherence and the adoption of healthy lifestyles. This study aims to explore and analyze patients’ perceptions of hypertension, the factors influencing these perceptions, and their implications for disease management and treatment adherence. This study employed a qualitative phenomenological design. Data were collected through semi-structured in-depth interviews with 17 patients diagnosed with hypertension who attended routine follow-up visits at Nogosari Primary Health Care Center, Boyolali, Central Java, Indonesia. Participants were selected until data saturation was achieved. Data were analyzed using thematic analysis. The findings showed that all patients perceived hypertension as a dangerous disease, mainly due to the risk of complications such as stroke and heart disease. However, patients’ levels of understanding regarding the definition, disease mechanisms, and complications of hypertension varied. Hypertension management, as perceived by patients, included dietary regulation, physical activity, stress management, and regular medication use, although inconsistencies in implementation were reported. Better perceptions of hypertension tended to encourage improved medication adherence and healthier lifestyle behaviors. This study highlights the importance of continuous health education to enhance patients’ understanding and management of hypertension.
