Cursos de mestrado acadêmico na área de enfermagem: análise da carga horária

OBJETIVO: identificar, entre os cursos de Mestrado Acadêmico dos programas de pós-graduação em enfermagem brasileiros, analisados por ocasião da avaliação trienal (2007-2009) da Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior, a carga horária informada pelos programas para a formação de mestre. MÉTODO: trata-se de estudo descritivo, quantitativo, documental, com dados coletados em julho de 2010, mediante consulta aos relatórios da citada Coordenação, no quesito "Propostas dos Programas", dos Cadernos de Indicadores, disponíveis na web. RESULTADOS: foram encontradas discrepâncias entre as cargas horárias dos 32 cursos de Mestrado Acadêmico das diversas regiões do Brasil, sendo que a menor carga horária foi de 315 horas e a maior de 1.530 horas. CONCLUSÕES: há necessidade de maior discussão acerca da carga horária necessária à formação das competências e habilidades para o perfil desejado do egresso. O estudo propicia avanços no conhecimento da enfermagem, pois não foram identificadas investigações pregressas que tratem de tal tema. Espera-se que os cursos de Mestrado Acadêmico de enfermagem percebam-se nesse processo e revejam suas decisões pedagógicas, à luz dos novos modelos de formação/capacitação dos profissionais de enfermagem, centrados na ciência, tecnologia e inovação na área.

THE ACHIEVEMENT OF EXCELLENCE IN BRAZILIAN PROGRAMS OF POST-GRADUATION STRICTO SENSU WITH A DOCTORATE IN NURSING

This study aimed to identify how the graduate programs in nursing stricto sensu evaluated by the Nursing field at Coordination of Improvement of Higher Education Personnel, in the triennium 2007-2009, achieved excellence - grade 6. Descriptive exploratory study of nature documentary, which examined the data of Reports Indicators of these Programs at the site of the Coordination cited, in 2010. We analyzed 99 chips of 33 programs for the triennium 2007 to 2009, grouped in sub-clauses of Social and item categories for grades 6/7. Presents the indicators of excellence of Americans and Brazilians Programs, the results of the triennial assessment relating to sub-items of item 5 and the description of program performance specified for the grade 6. It follows that the excellence of Programs has been gradually achieved, with performance in certain categories as those required by international standards, overcoming the obstacles to the achievement of excellence in all its fullness.

Protomers: formation, separation and characterization via travelling wave ion mobility mass spectrometry

Travelling wave ion mobility mass spectrometry (TWIM-MS) with post-TWIM and pre-TWIM collision-induced dissociation (CID) experiments were used to form, separate and characterize protomers sampled directly from solutions or generated in the gas phase via CID. When in solution equilibria, these species were transferred to the gas phase via electrospray ionization, and then separated by TWIM-MS. CID performed after TWIM separation (post-TWIM) allowed the characterization of both protomers via structurally diagnostic fragments. Protonated aniline (1) sampled from solution was found to be constituted of a ca. 5:1 mixture of two gaseous protomers, that is, the N-protonated (1a) and ring protonated (1b) molecules, respectively. When dissociated, 1a nearly exclusively loses NH3, whereas 1b displays a much diverse set of fragments. When formed via CID, varying populations of 1a and 1b were detected. Two co-existing protomers of two isomeric porphyrins were also separated and characterized via post-TWIM CID. A deprotonated porphyrin sampled from a basic methanolic solution was found to be constituted predominantly of the protomer arising from deprotonation at the carboxyl group, which dissociates promptly by CO2 loss, but a CID-resistant protomer arising from deprotonation at a porphyrinic ring NH was also detected and characterized. The doubly deprotonated porphyrin was found to be constituted predominantly of a single protomer arising from deprotonation of two carboxyl groups. Copyright (C) 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
