This study aimed to evaluate the relationship between frailty, sociodemographic and clinical characteristics, and disease severity of older adults with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). A total of 57 hospitalized patients ≥60 years with ACS were assessed for frailty through the Tilburg Frailty Indicator. Disease severity was assessed by the Global Registry of Acute Coronary Events, by the maximum troponin level, and by the number of severely obstructed coronary arteries. The relationship between variables was assessed by Mann Whitney’s test, Pearson’s chi-square test, likelihood-ratio test, Fisher’s exact test, or Student’s t test. Analyses were bootstrapped to 1,000 to reduce potential sample bias. About 54.4% were frail. Frailty was associated with ethnicity ( p = .02), marital status ( p = .05), ischemic equivalents ( p = .01), self-perceived health ( p = .002), arthritis/rheumatism/arthrosis ( p = .002), and number of severely obstructed coronary arteries ( p = .05). These relationships can support intensified surveillance planning for the elderly at greatest risk, structuring of transitional care, appropriate nurse-coordinated secondary prevention delivery in primary care, and cardiac rehabilitation following ACS.

Background/Aims The incidence of cardiovascular risk factors is high among both nurses and university students in general. This study assessed the relationship between sociodemographic and clinical characteristics and cardiovascular risk factors in undergraduate nursing students. Methods This was a cross-sectional study with a sample of 173 nursing students. Various cardiovascular risk factors were evaluated, including arterial hypertension, diabetes mellitus, dyslipidaemia, obesity, excessive daytime sleepiness, sleep apnoea, smoking, alcohol use and sedentarism. Associations were then identified between these factors and participants' sociodemographic and clinical characteristics, such as age, gender, living situation, lifestyle and presence of other conditions. Results The most prevalent risk factors were alcohol use, sedentarism and excessive daytime sleepiness. These were significantly associated with several variables, including smoking, religion, taking medical leave and participation in sporting events. Conclusions Nurses and university professors should be aware of modifiable cardiovascular risk factors among nursing students so that strategies can be devised to address them.

Objective: to develop and analyze content and face validity evidence of a board game to promote healthy lifestyle habits for patients with coronary artery disease. Method: this is a psychometric study of development and validity of a board game for health education. Data collection was carried out between October 2021 and January 2022. Initially, the game rules were described and, sequentially, themes related to cardiovascular prevention were identified, used as a basis for card development. The game was submitted to assessment by 14 experts in terms of clarity, theoretical relevance, practical relevance, image visibility and relationship between image and text, through a Likert scale score. The content validity coefficient was calculated for each round, with a coefficient greater than 0.57 being considered valid. New assessment rounds were performed until the appropriate coefficient was reached. Results: the board game was built containing images of anthropomorphized hearts alluding to healthy lifestyle habits and 45 spaces. A total of 69 cards were developed containing the themes of healthy eating, physical activity and the importance of smoking and alcohol cessation. In the first round of assessment, three cards did not reach the minimum content validity coefficient. They were reformulated and sent to a second round of assessment, and was considered validated in this new round. Conclusion: the game, its rules and its content showed adequate content validity evidence after the second round. Further studies to analyze its effect on lifestyle modification should be carried out.

PURPOSE To assess the validity of a Written Clinical Reasoning Prompt (WCRP) to help nursing students' clinical reasoning (CR). METHOD This is a methodological study of translation and cross-cultural adaptation into Brazilian Portuguese of instruments that aim to promote CR improvement, composed of (1) WCRP; (2) two case studies; (3) a questionnaire about students' perceptions during decision-making in case studies; (4) a scoring rubric for correcting case studies. For translation and cross-cultural adaptation, stages 1-8 of the Research Diagnostic Criteria for Temporomandibular Disorders (RDC/TMD) Consortium Network were adopted. Agreement values among experts >80% and content validity coefficient (CVC) > 0.8 were considered satisfactory. For the pretest, a randomized clinical trial was carried out with 24 nursing students (intervention group, n = 14, using the WCRP to solve case studies; control group, n = 10, without using the WCRP). FINDINGS The WCRP was translated and adapted into Brazilian Portuguese, requiring minimal adjustments to obtain agreement among the judges above 80% and CVC above 0.80. Regarding face validation, an adequate agreement was obtained in the assessment by students. There was no difference in the accuracy of nursing diagnoses between the intervention and control groups in the pretest. CONCLUSION The WCRP was translated and adapted into Brazilian Portuguese and had adequate face and content validity estimates; however, there was no association with improving nursing students' diagnostic accuracy. IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSING PRACTICE The translated and adapted versions of all instruments into Brazilian Portuguese had adequate evidence of content and face validity. The use of WCRP was not associated with a significant improvement in nursing students' diagnostic accuracy. New studies with larger samples, a sample power of at least 80%, and a level of significance of 5% are needed.

Background In Brazil, there are no instruments available to measure the presence, frequency, severity and distress related to heart failure (HF) symptoms. Aims To adapt the Symptom Status Questionnaire - HF (SSQ-HF) into Brazilian Portuguese and to examine the content validity of the adapted version. Methods The instrument was translated, back-translated and evaluated by an expert committee for semantic, idiomatic, cultural, and conceptual equivalences. An agreement ≥80% was considered adequate. The adapted version was evaluated by both an expert committee (n = 9) for clarity, theoretical relevance and practical relevance (acceptable content validity coefficient (CVC): ≥0.70), and by a patient committee regarding understanding (n = 40). Results The adapted version obtained 100% agreement regarding the equivalences. The total instrument CVC was 0.99. All patients understood the items. Conclusion The SSQ-HF-Brazilian version has satisfactory evidence of equivalence and content validity. Additional psychometric tests are deemed to confirm that the instrument can be used in Brazil.

AimsTo evaluate the effect of postoperative forced-air warming (FAW) on the incidence of excessive bleeding (ExB), arrhythmia, acute myocardial infarction (AMI), and blood product transfusion in hypothermic patients following on-pump CABG and compare temperatures associated with the use of FAW and warming with a sheet and wool blanket.Methods and resultsA randomized clinical trial conducted with 200 patients undergoing isolated on-pump CABG from January to November 2018. Patients were randomly assigned into an Intervention Group (IG, FAW, n = 100) and Control Group (CG, sheet and blanket, n = 100). The tympanic temperature of all patients was measured over a 24-h period. ExB was the primary outcome, while arrhythmia, AMI, and blood product transfusion were secondary outcomes. The effect of the interventions on the outcomes was investigated through using bivariate logistic regression, with a level of significance of 5%. The IG was 79% less likely to experience bleeding than the CG [odds ratio (OR) = 0.21, confidence interval (CI) 95% 0.12–0.39, P ConclusionsThese findings show that FAW can be used following CABG until patients reach normothermia to avoid undesirable clinical outcomes.Trial registrationREBeC RBR-5t582g.

Aim The aim of this paper is to propose a label structure for nursing diagnosis syndromes from NANDA-I. Background Worldwide changes and human needs seem to get more complex, offering challenging opportunities for nursing care and to nursing knowledge. Nursing classifications represent nursing knowledge and are critical in guiding clinical practice and patient-centred care. Sources of evidence This discussion paper is based on the analysis of NANDA-I Taxonomy II and related literature. Discussion/conclusion A total of 13 diagnoses comprise the term 'syndrome'; however, the labels are not consistent with the multiaxial system within the NANDA-I model of a nursing diagnosis. Syndromes require a more specific approach and definition when compared to other type of nursing diagnoses. A new format for describing the label is provided and would be useful in improving current syndromes and in reflecting a more individualized and patient-centred nursing care. Implications for nursing policy and practice The proposal provided in this paper could raise the quality of nurses' assessment, increase accuracy of NANDA-I nursing diagnoses, promote nurses' clinical reasoning and the adequacy of care. Ultimately, changes should be not only perceived in nurses´ practice but also in nursing education as curricula should promote a critical thinking. Nurse leaders and policymakers could additionally use this in the development of advanced programmes and protocols that could manage and monitorize implementation of advanced care.

Objectives To summarize evidence in the literature on the predictors of insomnia in adults and to determine correspondences with diagnostic indicators of the NANDA-I diagnosis Insomnia. Methods An integrative review performed in Pubmed, Virtual Health Library and CINAHL. Forty-eight articles published in Portuguese, English or Spanish from 2011 to 2018 were included. An analysis of correspondence between the predictors and the NANDA-I related factors and associated conditions for Insomnia was performed. Results There was a correspondence of the predictors found in this review with NANDA-I related factors and associated conditions, except for grieving and frequent naps during the day. Smoking, caffeine intake, dysfunctional sleep beliefs, obesity and caregiver role strain are possible new related factors; chronic illness is a possible new associated condition and individuals going through changes in marital status, economically disadvantaged, female gender, increasing age and night shift worker are possible new at-risk populations. Conclusion The predictors of insomnia that had a correspondence with the NANDA-I elements can support the evidence base of the nursing diagnosis. The predictors found without a correspondence with the diagnosis can be considered for inclusion in the NANDA-I classification, thereby supporting the clinical reasoning of nurses and students.

Objective To identify the frequency of risk factors for venous thromboembolism in hospitalized medical patients and the use preventive measures by healthcare professionals. Method A descriptive, cross-sectional, retrospective study including medical charts of 369 adult patients hospitalized in the Medical sector of a university hospital in Sao Paulo, Brazil, for at least 48h from 2015 to 2017. Sociodemographic data, clinical risk factors for venous thromboembolism, contraindication and implementation of chemical prophylaxis, and the occurrence of the disease were investigated. The use of preventive measures was calculated by following the guidelines of the Brazilian Society of Clinical Medicine and the risk of venous thromboembolism according to the Padua Prediction Score (high risk ≥ 4 and low risk Results The prevalence of venous thromboembolism was 7.3% (n = 27). All patients had at least one risk factor for venous thromboembolism, the most prevalent being reduced mobility (74.2%), active cancer (70.7%), infection (27.1%), recent surgery (21.6%) and age ≥70 years (20.0%). Chemical prophylaxis was implemented in 70.3% of high-risk patients without contraindication and mechanical prophylaxis was applied in only one of the cases with an indication. Conclusions All patients had at least one risk factor for venous thromboembolism. However, there was a low rate of implementation of preventive measures by health care professionals. Therefore, there is a need for multiple interventions, including admission and permanent education of nurses regarding risk and prevention, warning systems and outcomes audit.

Purpose To test the effects of clinical reasoning prompts on students' clinical judgment of a written case study. Methods An experimental pre- and posttest study with second semester nursing students (N = 163). Findings The intervention was insufficient to significantly improve clinical judgment. Students identified that the prompts would help them "narrow… down the problem" and "slow… the decision-making process" to improve analysis. The most accurate patient problem was identified by 28% of students in pretest and 35% in posttest. Conclusions This study provides evidence of variations in nursing students' clinical judgment and students' desire to use decision-making algorithms. Nursing implications Nurse educators should provide students with additional education and practice to identify and solve these types of problems.

Objective: to assess the prevalence of pharmacological adherence in patients with coronary artery disease and to identify factors associated with adherence. Method: a crosssectional, correlational study, including 198 patients with a previous diagnosis of coronary artery disease. Pharmacological adherence was assessed by the four-item Morisky Green test, and the factors that potentially interfere with adherence were considered independent variables. The association between the variables was determined by the Cox model, with a 5% significance level. Results: 43% of the patients adhered to the treatment. Fatigue and palpitation, never having consumed alcohol and being served by medical insurance were associated with adherence. Lack of adherence was associated with considering the treatment complex, consumption of alcohol and being served by the public health care system. In the multiple analysis, the patients with fatigue and palpitations had a prevalence of adherence around three times higher and alcohol consumption was associated with a 2.88 times greater chance of non-adherence. Conclusion: more than half of the patients were classified as non-adherent. Interventions can be directed to some factors associated with lack of adherence. Objetivo: avaliar a prevalência da adesão farmacológica de pacientes com doença arterial coronariana e identificar os fatores associados à adesão. Método: estudo transversal, correlacional, incluindo 198 pacientes com diagnóstico prévio de doença arterial coronariana. A adesão farmacológica foi avaliada pelo teste de Morisky Green de quatro itens e os fatores que potencialmente interferem na adesão foram considerados variáveis independentes. A associação entre as variáveis foi verificada pelo modelo de Cox, com nível de significância de 5%. Resultados: 43% dos pacientes aderiram ao tratamento. Associaram-se à adesão os sintomas de fadiga e palpitação, nunca ter ingerido bebida alcoólica e ser atendido por convênio médico. Associaram-se à falta de adesão considerar o tratamento complexo, o consumo de bebidas alcoólicas e ser atendido pelo sistema público de saúde. Na análise múltipla, os pacientes que apresentavam fadiga e palpitação tiveram prevalência de adesão em torno de três vezes maior e o consumo de álcool associou-se a uma chance 2,88 vezes maior de não adesão. Conclusão: mais da metade dos pacientes foram classificados como não aderentes. Intervenções podem ser direcionadas para alguns fatores associados à falta de adesão.

Build and validate the content of conceptual and operational definitions of the defining characteristics of the nursing diagnosis of NANDA-I "Ineffective health self-management" in people living with HIV/AIDS.Methodological study, with a quantitative approach. The validation was performed by 26 specialist nurses selected through the Lattes do Brazil platform. The process followed two steps: (a) proposal of new defining characteristics to the Nursing Diagnosis "Ineffective Health Self-Management" and elaboration of conceptual and operational definitions; (b) content validation of the new defining characteristics of the Nursing Diagnosis "Ineffective Health Self-Management" and the conceptual and operational definitions. Data were collected between October 2020 and May 2021.The researchers included six defining characteristics as components of the diagnosis, adding to the 10 already existing in the NANDA-I version (2021-2023). Then, the experts judged these components and 13 defining characteristics were validated using the binominal test with adequacy ratio above 85% and p value0.05. After this stage, the conceptual and operational definitions of these defining characteristics were constructed, validating them by the content validation index ≥0.80 by the expert nurses.Three new defining characteristics for Ineffective health self-management were proposed and validated by specialists. Conceptual and operational definitions of the new and current defining characteristics were elaborated and validated for people living with HIV/AIDS.The knowledge and study of the conceptual and operational definitions of nursing diagnoses can contribute to good nursing practices, assisting in the care and evaluation of nurses in the provision of care to people living with HIV/AIDS, and can avoid misunderstandings and inappropriate interpretations and can guarantee assertive clinical judgment.Nursing diagnosis, validation studies, nursing processes, acquired immunodeficiency syndrome.Construir e validar o conteúdo das definições conceituais e operacionais das características definidoras do diagnóstico de enfermagem da NANDA-I “Autogestão ineficaz da saúde” em pessoas vivendo com HIV/AIDS.

to evaluate the effect of the Self-Instructional Guide for Clinical Reasoning on the diagnostic accuracy of undergraduate Nursing students.a randomized, parallel and double-blind (researchers and outcome evaluators) clinical trial, carried out with undergraduate Nursing students. Validated case studies were applied in two phases to identify the patient's Nursing diagnosis/problem, etiology and clues, using the Guide with the intervention group in the second phase. The outcomes - diagnostic and etiological accuracy and number of clues - were evaluated using validated rubrics. Descriptive statistics were used to analyze demographic data; Fisher's exact test for similarities in prior education and confidence; Mann-Whitney's test for age; and non-parametric ANOVA test in the evaluation of the hypothesis of differences in performance.final sample composed of 24 students in the control group and 27 in the intervention group; no difference as to gender, age and schooling. There was a difference in diagnostic (p=0.041) and etiological (p=0.0351) accuracy in the intervention group, showing a negative effect of using the Guide.the one-time self-instruction was not effective in impacting the diagnostic accuracy of students solving case studies. Repeated application of the Guide as a teaching tool can be effective in improving such outcome.

Determination of modifiable factors associated with changes in health perception can be beneficial for improvement in health perception and health-related quality of life. The purpose of this study was to examine if changes in physical symptoms, functional status, and depressive symptoms were associated with changes in health perception at three months and the mediator effect of physical symptoms. Data were collected at baseline and three months later (N = 65). Process Macro for SPSS was used to analyze the data. Only changes in depressive symptoms (p < .001) were associated with changes in physical symptoms. Then, only changes in physical symptoms (p = .026) were significantly associated with changes in health perception. Changes in physical symptoms played significant roles in changes in health perception directly and also through the mediator role. Clinicians and researchers need to assess and manage these two modifiable factors to improve health perception in this population.

Introduction: In order to reduce readmission rates after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), its predictors should be known in different contexts. The objective of this study was to identify predictive factors of hospital readmission within 30 days after CABG in a Brazilian center. Methods: A secondary analysis of an electronic database of patients submitted to isolated CABG was performed. The relationship between readmission within 30 days and demographic, anthropometric, clinical, and surgery-related characteristics was investigated by univariate analyses. Predictors were identified by multiple logistic regression. Results: Data from 2,272 patients were included, with an incidence of readmission of 8.6%. The predictors of readmission were brown skin color (Beta=1.613; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.047-2.458; P=0.030), African-American ethnicity (Beta=0.136; 95% CI 0.019-0.988; P=0.049), chronic kidney disease (Beta=2.214; 95% CI 1.269-3.865; P=0.005), postoperative use of blood products (Beta=1.515; 95% CI 1.101-2.086; P=0.011), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (Beta=2.095; 95% CI 1.284-3.419; P=0.003), and use of acetylsalicylic acid (Beta=1.418; 95% CI 1.000-2.011; P=0.05). Preoperative antibiotic prophylaxis (Beta=0.742; 95% CI 0.5471.007; P=0.055) was marginally significant. Conclusion: The predictors identified may support a closer postoperative follow-up and individualized planning for a safe discharge.

The objective of this study was to develop and validate an educational video on nasopharyngeal and oropharyngeal suctioning.The use of videos in nursing education can improve students' skills in performing procedures.This was a methodological study.This study was performed in five steps: (1) development of the script for an educational video on nasopharyngeal and oropharyngeal suctioning; (2) content validation of the script by 10 nurse specialists; (3) development of the video; (4) content validation of the video by six nurse specialists; (5) cognitive testing by 51 nursing students regarding the understanding of the items, until the following requirements were met: (1) mean and median scores ≥4, with significant inter-rater agreement, according to the Wilcoxon test; (2) 95% confidence intervals80 for the proportion of maximum scores, according to the binomial distribution. p values0.05 were considered significant.After four rounds of evaluation by the specialists, the script was considered validated. The video was considered validated after two rounds of evaluation by specialists and students (p 0.001). The video addressed the following topics: concept, indications, contraindications, required materials, appropriate technique, nursing notes and complications.The video script was created by using the Storyboard technique and validated by specialist nurses using the Delphi technique. Nursing students watched, analyzed and understood the video which may support them to improve their technical skills of this procedure.

Purpose To estimate the content validity of the outcome Knowledge: Heart Failure Management (1835) of the Nursing Outcomes Classification (NOC). Methods A methodological study conducted in Brazil with nurses with expertise in cardiovascular nursing and nursing process. The nurse experts evaluated the relevance of the indicators for the nursing outcome on a 5-point Likert scale. A total of 55 indicators were analyzed, including 50 NOC indicators, four indicators located from a scoping review, and one suggested by an expert during the content validation process. The relevance ratio supported the categorization of indicators as critical, supplemental, or unnecessary. Relevance ratios of critical and supplemental indicators were summed and divided by the total number of the indicators to calculate the outcome content validity (OCV) score of the nursing outcome. Findings Fifteen nurse experts, mostly females (n = 13) with a mean age of 36.0 ± 6.3 years, 13.9 ± 6.5 years of professional experience, and extensive use of the nursing process in their clinical practice (n = 10), teaching (n = 13), and research (n = 11), participated in this study. Regarding the content validation, 43 (78.2%) out of 55 indicators were categorized as critical (relevance ratio .80-.98), 11 (20%) as supplemental (relevance ratio .67-.79), and one indicator (1.8%) was categorized as unnecessary (relevance ratio .48). The OCV score of the nursing outcome was .87. Conclusion The study provided evidence of content validity of 49 indicators of the NOC outcome, Knowledge: Heart Failure Management, and five new indicators identified through the validation process based on nurse experts' opinions. Implications for the nursing practice These findings provide evidence-based indicators for the measurement of heart failure patients' knowledge about disease management. As a result, nurses can test the effectiveness of nursing interventions based on valid outcome indicators.

Objective To analyze the content of the diagnostic proposal, risk for impaired cardiovascular function, focusing on incarcerated women. Methods A methodological study of nursing diagnosis content validation carried out from December/2018 to June/2019. A sample of 24 judges evaluated the proposed definition and the relevance of the proposed etiological factors of risk for impaired cardiovascular function. To determine the content validity of the etiological factors, the Content Validity Index was calculated and a value of 0.9 was adopted, in addition to the Wilcoxon test. Results The diagnostic definition was considered consistent with the diagnostic label. All 18 etiological factors were validated with a Content Validity Index statistically >0.9 and categorized into risk factors, associated conditions, and at-risk populations. Conclusion The definition and 18 etiological factors of risk for impaired cardiovascular function were validated. Implications for the nursing practice The study allowed the new proposal for the risk for impaired cardiovascular function nursing diagnosis to be accepted to return to the taxonomy of NANDA International with an expanded and more consistent structure. The return of the referred nursing diagnosis to the taxonomy favors the nurse's diagnostic reasoning and the documentation of all nursing actions, linked to this diagnosis, which are aimed at minimizing cardiovascular risk.

Objective: to perform the content and face validation of a checklist and a banner on pressure injury prevention in patients in prone position. Method: this is a methodological study of content and face validation with 26 nurses with specialization. Professionals assessed the checklist and the banner in relation to clarity, theoretical relevance, practical relevance, relation of the figures to the text and font size. The Content Validity Index was calculated for each item, considering one with a value equal to or greater than 0.8 as valid. Results: all the actions described in the checklist and in the banner had a Content Validity Index greater than 0.80, with standardization of verbal time and esthetic adjustments in the banner’s layout, as suggested. Conclusions: the checklist and the banner were validated and can be used in clinical practice to facilitate pressure injury preventions in patients in prone position.
