Method: Exploratory clinical study conducted with 17 individuals with chronic pain. Quality of life was assessed using the Medical Outcomes Study 36-Item Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36) questionnaire. Results: The sample was predominantly female (70.6%), with a mean age of 51.8 years and a higher prevalence of fibromyalgia (70.6%). The lowest mean scores for quality of life were observed in the domains of physical functioning limitations (19.1), emotional aspects (27.4), and pain (28.1). There was a statistically significant difference in the vitality domain when comparing diagnoses (p = 0.044), with higher impairment in fibromyalgia. In the gender comparison, a significant difference was identified in the mental health domain (p = 0.013), revealing worse psychological scores in females. Conclusion: Chronic pain severely compromises quality of life in a multidimensional manner. Vitality is more affected in fibromyalgia, and mental health shows gender disparity, reinforcing the need for interdisciplinary and humanized intervention programs in managing these conditions. 2026-06-18T00:00:00Z https://repositorio.ifpe.edu.br/xmlui/handle/123456789/2255 Aplicação da neuromodulação não invasiva no manejo da dor crônica em serviços ambulatoriais: protocolo de revisão de escopo Chronic pain is a major public health problem associated with functional, psychological, social, and economic impacts, requiring safe and effective therapeutic strategies for its management. In this context, non-invasive neuromodulation has emerged as a promising alternative, although evidence regarding its use in outpatient care remains scattered throughout the literature. This study aims to map the available evidence on non-invasive neuromodulation techniques used in the management of chronic pain in outpatient settings. This is a revisão de escopo protocol developed according to the methodological recommendations of the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) and structured in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for Revisão de escopos (PRISMA-ScR). Searches will be conducted in the PubMed/MEDLINE, Virtual Health Library (VHL), CINAHL, Scopus, Embase, Web of Science, and LILACS databases, as well as in gray literature sources, including the Brazilian Digital Library of Theses and Dissertations (BDTD), ProQuest, and Google Scholar. Study selection will be performed by independent reviewers using the Rayyan software, and data will be extracted using a standardized instrument. The expected results include identifying and characterizing the non-invasive neuromodulation techniques used in the management of chronic pain in outpatient settings, as well as describing their application protocols, barriers to implementation, and knowledge gaps. It is concluded that this protocol will provide methodological support for the development of the revisão de escopo, contributing to the organization of scientific evidence, strengthening evidence-based clinical practice, and guiding future research on non- invasive neuromodulation in outpatient care. 2026-06-18T00:00:00Z https://repositorio.ifpe.edu.br/xmlui/handle/123456789/2252 Tecnologia assistiva: panorama das patentes nacionais e internacionais de órteses e próteses de hálux Objective: To map the state of the art regarding hallux orthoses and prostheses registered in patent databases, focusing on materials, functionalities, and the application of additive manufacturing. Methodology: An exploratory documentary study with a quantitative approach, conducted through a prior art search in national and international patent databases. Results: A total of 73 hallux-related devices were identified during the database Search 63 orthoses and 10 prostheses with only 3 patents involving 3D printing. Conclusion: The findings indicate that, despite the technological potential, there is still limited adoption of additive manufacturing in the healthcare sector, representing a significant gap for innovation. The current technological landscape underscores the need to encourage research and development of low-cost solutions, focusing on expanding access, fostering social inclusion, and improving the quality of life for individuals with functional impairments or hallux amputation. 2026-04-14T00:00:00Z https://repositorio.ifpe.edu.br/xmlui/handle/123456789/2247 Adoecimento em profissionais de enfermagem que atuam no centro cirúrgico: uma revisão integrativa Hospitals are environments conducive to the development of occupational diseases, due to exposure to biological and chemical agents, physical and mental overload, exhausting work schedules, and inadequate ergonomic requirements. Objective: To investigate in the literature the main causes of illness among nursing professionals working in surgical centers. Method: This study is an integrative review with searches conducted in the databases BVS, SciELO, CAPES Periodicals Portal, PubMed, Cochrane Library, CINAHL (EBSCO), and Scopus from February 25th to March 20th, 2025. Thirteen publications were selected to compose the study sample. Results: Data analysis showed that nursing professionals working in surgical centers are exposed to multiple factors of occupational illness. Stress and Burnout Syndrome associated with work overload, prolonged working hours, and inadequate working conditions stand out. Episodes of occupational violence, mainly verbal aggression, were also identified. Among the physical, ergonomic, and chemical risks, musculoskeletal disorders, exposure to harmful agents, and accidents with sharps stand out. Conclusion: Underreporting of these events and inadequate use of personal protective equipment reinforce the need for preventive measures and the promotion of occupational health. Strategies are needed to improve health, safety, and working conditions. 2026-07-02T00:00:00Z
