- Adaptation and implementation of the European matrix for teaching spiritual care to nursing studentsPublication . Sitefane, Sara; Afonso, Ana; Rabiais, Isabel; Caldeira, SílviaBackground The World Health Organization’s concept of health currently comprises eight dimensions: emotional, spiritual, intellectual, physical, environmental, fnancial, occupational, and social. Including the spiritual dimension [1] represents an essential milestone in recognizing its positive impact on health, well-being, and quality of life. In this sense, nursing students’ acquisition and development of spiritual care skills are required, particularly in undergraduate nursing degrees. Also, the evidence demonstrates the positive relationship between spiritual education and spiritual competencies, emphasizing the need for spiritual education as an integral and regular part of the undergraduate nursing curriculum. Regardless of this evidence, the educational strategies for improving and developing undergraduate nursing students’ skills and competencies are scarce and should be urgently considered as nurses and midwives still report feeling unprepared for providing spiritual care. Recently, the EPICC project (Nurses’ and Midwives’ Competence in Providing Spiritual Care through Innovative Education and Compassionate Care)[2] has been implemented as a turning point in nursing education for spiritual care and spirituality, through a systematic, consensual, and efective response, by involving multiple partners and experts from diferent European countries. Portugal has been a participant in that Erasmus-funded project. Materials and methods This Ph.D. project concerns the translation, adaptation, and implementation of the EPICC matrix. First, a translation and cultural adaptation process will be conducted according to the core project guidelines [3]. Then the matrix for education and assessing spiritual care competencies will be implemented in a pilot study in a Portuguese nursing school involving undergraduate nursing students. Results The core project guidelines represent V stage of the cross-cultural adaptation process. The preliminary results point to the beginning of stage III with the back translation of the synthesized written version of the EPICC Spiritual Care Education Standard and EPICC Spiritual Care Competency Self-assessment tool. Stage I (initial translation with written reports of each – T1 and T2) and Stage II (synthesis of the translations to version T12) of the translation and cultural adaptation of the EPICC matrix are already concluded. Conclusions This innovative project could help improve Portuguese schools’ nursing curricula from an evidence-based perspective.

- Burned patient care at the emergency servicePublication . Amaral, Carla; Rabiais, Isabel; Antunes, Anabela; Francisco, MariaIntroduction: The burned patient is deined as a trauma patient, who requires multidisciplinary care, since the severity of the burns go far beyond the partial or total destruction of the skin thickness, whence, can compromise several organs and, according to its severity, may lead to multiple organ failure, therefore, an early approach imposes clinical procedures and protocols based on evidence (DGS, 2012). Objectives: Standardize the interventions of burn patients in the emergency service, in order to correctly assess and proceed to prevent complications. Methods: We conducted a integrative literature review of 7 scientiic articles, in Portuguese language, in the last 5 years, which identiied a set of interventions and recommendations, according to the criteria of the CDC/HICPAC, which categorizes them based on existing scientiic data, logical reasoning, applicability and economic impact thus integrating the category IA (evidence level A, recommendation grade I). Results: The irst set of treatments done to the burned patient on care, not only includes the injuries originated by the causal agent, but also the maintenance of airway permeability, luid replacement and pain control, with the purpose to decrease the complications due to trauma. The treatment is established according to the severity of injuries from exposure, type and degree of commitment. Conclusions: An updated knowledge, allows the identiication and prevention of subtle changes that can trigger major complications, minimizing both the mortality and morbidity rates, as the longterm injuries, helping these patients to have a satisfactory life quality allowing them a social, professional and family integration.

- Checklist for a safe intra-hospital transport of critically ill patients: a scoping reviewPublication . Canellas, Madalena; Palma, Isabel; Pontífice-Sousa, Patrícia; Rabiais, IsabelTransporting critically ill patients is has a set of risks that may jeopardize their safety. Knowing the risks associated with intrahospitalar transport of critically ill patients is essential to improving patient safety. For the sake of improving patient safety, was chosen to approach it as an intrahospitalar transport checklist, as the literature describes it as a practical and simple way to increase safety. Objective: Map available scientific evidence regarding aspects of a checklist that ensure the safety of critically ill patients in intrahospitalar transport. Material and Method: A scoping review was performed following the methodology proposed by The Joanna Briggs Institute in databases using the EBSCOhost and B-on search engines. Conducted research in Portuguese, English, and Spanish. Selected free full text articles, with no time limit. Inclusion criteria: adult/elderly critically ill patient, intrahospital transport, a checklist and patient safety. Results: Included 7 articles for analysis. Most verification requests that ensure the safety of critical patients on intrahospitalar transport concern the transport preparation phase, in which patient is monitored was the most mentioned aspect. From the post-transportation phase, checklist aspects are only available in 3 of 7 articles Conclusion: All studies address aspects that improve the safety of critically ill patients in intrahospitalar transport and are likely to be included in the checklist. There is no unanimity as to which aspects to include in the checklist.
- Cidadania e construção cívica dos jovens - um processo de capacitaçãoPublication . Figueiredo, Amélia Simões; Rabiais, Isabel; Deodato, SérgioConsiderando que o principal objetivo da educação para a cidadania é proporcionar a aquisição de competências para a inserção responsável dos jovens, a qual pode assumir a forma de desenvolvimento de projetos em parceria no quadro da relação entre a escola e a comunidade, surge o projeto “Capacitar para salvar”. Este projeto inscreve-se na missão da Universidade Católica Portuguesa de “produzir e partilhar conhecimento crítico, inovador e socialmente relevante, ao serviço do desenvolvimento integral da pessoa e do bem comum”, visando dotar os estudantes do ensino secundário de competências de suporte básico de vida. Deste trabalho, resultou o presente estudo, que tem como objetivos: caracterizar os atores envolvidos no projeto; divulgar os indicadores de avaliação de processo do mesmo e avaliar a importância da formação de jovens adultos na promoção de valores impulsionadores de comportamentos responsáveis, autónomos e solidários. Trata-se um estudo de abordagem quali-quantitativo, com recurso à análise de conteúdo e ao tratamento estatístico dos dados, resultantes da aplicação de questionários a estudantes, numa amostra de 8 escolas. Os resultados apontam uma intencionalidade da ação futura dos estudantes, movida pela racionalidade de procedimentos ensinados, instruídos e treinados. O sentido da ação sugere um processo de construção que lhe permite assumir-se como pessoa e encontrar sentido para a vida. As conclusões apontam para a capacitação dos atores, numa perspetiva de cidadania e saúde que sugerem a construção de uma identidade e o desenvolvimento de uma consciência cívica visada, enquanto conceitos evolutivos em sociedade.
