Diagnostic Accuracy of the Defining Characteristics of Impaired Swallowing in Children with Encephalopathy.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the accuracy of the defining characteristics of the nursing diagnosis of impaired swallowing in children with encephalopathy. The measures of diagnostic accuracy for each indicator were verified through latent class analysis. The prevalence of swallowing impairment was 59.76% for a total of 82 children evaluated. The defining characteristics that had good measures of sensitivity (range: 79.59-99.99) and specificity (range: 72.72-99.99) were as follows: food falls from the mouth, tongue action ineffective in forming bolus, prolonged bolus formation, inability to clear the oral cavity, and food refusal. Eight characteristics can be used as warning signs for impaired swallowing because they have high sensitivity values. In addition, ten characteristics presented high specificity and can be used to confirm this diagnosis in children with encephalopathy. Considering the findings of the swallowing pattern assessments through the analysis of the accuracy measures, it is verified that the evidence presented here should guide the pediatrics nurses in the diagnosis decision making. Indicators of high sensitivity should be used as warning signs for swallowing impairment, and the high specificity indicators should be used as a confirmatory sign of this condition and requires immediate intervention.

Accuracy of nursing diagnosis "readiness for enhanced hope" in patients with chronic kidney disease. / Acurácia do diagnóstico de enfermagem "disposição para melhora da esperança" em pacientes renais crônicos.

OBJECTIVE: To analyse the accuracy of the nursing diagnosis readiness for enhanced hope in patients with chronic kidney disease. METHOD: This is a cross-sectional study with 62 patients in the haemodialysis clinic conducted from August to November 2015. The Hearth Hope Scale was used to create definitions of the defining characteristics of the North American Nursing Diagnosis Association International. We analysed the measures of sensitivity, specificity, predictive value, likelihood ratio, and odds ratio of the defining characteristics of the diagnosis. RESULTS: Of the characteristics, 82.22% presented the diagnosis. The defining characteristics "Expresses the desire to enhance congruency of expectations with desires" and "Expresses the desire to enhance problem solving to meet goals" increased the chance of having the diagnosis by eleven and five, respectively. CONCLUSION: The characteristics, "Expresses desire to enhance congruency of expectations with desires" and "Expresses desire to enhance problem solving to meet goals" had good accuracy measures.

Relationship Between Frailty, Sociodemographic and Clinical Characteristics, and Disease Severity of Older Adults With Acute Coronary Syndrome.

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.

Effects of the Quality of Life on the Adaptation of People With An Intestinal Stoma.

The study aimed to examine the effects of the quality of life on the adaptation of people with an intestinal stoma. Cross-sectional study with 152 people with an ostomy. Three instruments were used: the sociodemographic and clinical characterization, Scale for the Level of Adaptation of Ostomy Patients, and City of Hope Quality of Life - Ostomy Questionnaire. The multiple linear regression model, multivariate technique, and cluster were used. The determination coefficient showed that 94.1% of the variability of the Adaptation scores is explained by the dimensions of quality of life. It can be seen that the highest standardized coefficients are the psychological dimension (ß = .386) and the social dimension (ß = .365), in which they produce the greatest changes in the average adaptation scores. The psychological and social well-being dimensions are the ones that most contribute to raising the levels of adaptation.

Correlation Between Functional Health Literacy and Self-efficacy in People with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: Cross-sectional Study.

To analyze the correlation between functional health literacy (FHL) and self-efficacy (SE) in people with type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. Cross-sectional study was conducted among September and October 2019, with 196 people with type 2 diabetes. Data were collected using the Functional Literacy in Health instrument (B-TOFHLA) and the Diabetes Management Self-Efficacy Scale for Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (DMSES). Bivariate analysis was used to verify the relationship among the constructs. Most diabetics showed an average B-TOFHLA score of 74.75, considered adequate, and self-efficacy of 4.07, high. The association between SE and FHL in the bivariate analysis found no statistical significance (p > .05), in the same sense as the B-TOFHLA score and the DMSES domains (p > .05). Constructs were not related to each other in terms of skills arising from judgments and decisions with motivational confidence by the investigated audience.

Social determinants of health that permeate the mental suffering of children on the french-brazilian border.

OBJECTIVES: to understand the determinants involved in the mental suffering of schoolchildren on the French-Brazilian border. METHODS: a qualitative study was conducted with children from 6 to 12 years of age from four State schools in the municipality of Oiapoque, located on the French-Brazilian border. The data were obtained through interviews, analyzed by the IRAMUTEQ software, and interpreted in the light of the Dahlgren and Whitehead's social determinants of health model. RESULTS: data indicate that the mental suffering experienced by children, especially characterized by anxious symptoms, such as concern of becoming fat and worries, were permeated by social situations that children went through daily, such as family abandonment, domestic violence, and bullying. FINAL CONSIDERATIONS: social determinants can be predictors of mental suffering in children, especially in environments of extreme vulnerability, such as the border, in a context of financial difficulties, domestic violence, and absence of parenting.

Competencies in health promotion by nurses for adolescents.

OBJECTIVE: to describe the health promotion competency domains, performed by nurses, for adolescents, according to the Galway Consensus. METHOD: a qualitative study based on the Galway Consensus theoretical methodological framework. Fifteen nurses from northeastern Brazil participated. Data were collected between April and May 2017 through pre-structured interviews, submitted to the content analysis technique and analyzed according to the Galway Consensus dimensions. RESULTS: the following competency areas were found: catalyzing changes, leadership, needs assessment, planning, implementation, and partnerships. These competencies were contemplated from embracement of adolescents at health unit, guidance, teamwork, educational activities and lectures, as well as active search. CONCLUSION: most health promotion domains were observed; however, it is still suggested that there are challenges to an effective performance of health promotion among adolescents because some competency domains in health promotion have not been evidenced.

Hand hygiene determinants of informal caregivers in hospitals under Pender's perspective.

OBJECTIVES: to analyze hand hygiene determinants of informal caregivers in a hospital environment. METHODS: qualitative study conducted with 55 caregivers at a university hospital in the Northeast of Brazil. A semi-structured instrument was used, adapted from Nola Pender's Health Promotion Model, from which the deductive categories were derived. RESULTS: the general behavior included hand hygiene before meals and after using the bathroom. Sensitivity to the requirements for hand hygiene was observed, but the barriers and self-efficacy consisted of the availability of soap or alcohol-based hand sanitizers, the lack of knowledge on the importance of and forgetfulness of the practice. The reinforcement on the importance of the practice and being in a contaminated environment were influencers, and commitment, warnings, and training were indispensable. CONCLUSIONS: benefits related to protection from infections were seen as positive determinants for hand hygiene adherence. For non-adherence, factors such as lack of sanitizing supplies, ignorance towards the importance of the activity, and forgetfulness stood out.

The following descriptors were used: Acupuncture AND Chronic Renal Insufficiency AND Clinical Trial. RESULTS: nine studies were selected; the acupuncture techniques used were auriculotherapy, electroacupuncture and acupressure aimed at improving quality of life, fatigue, sleep and clinical variables of the disease. The studies that assessed quality of life, sleep and fatigue presented significant benefits. Studies that assessed quality of life, sleep and fatigue presented significant benefits. There was no statistical significance in the improvement of serum creatinine levels and glomerular filtration rate. Methodological and assessment tools' divergence made impossible meta-analysis Conclusions: studies reinforce the positive effect of acupuncture in improving quality of life, fatigue and sleep in patients.

Factors related to hemodialysis safety culture: integrative literature review.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the factors involved in nursing care that are related to the safety culture of chronic renal patients on hemodialysis. METHOD: Integrative literature review, carried out through the steps: problem identification, bibliographic research, data evaluation, data analysis, and report. We adopted the guiding question: "What scientific evidence is there about the factors related to the safety culture in hemodialysis clinics, according to the nursing team?" The search was carried out in the LILACS, Medline / PUBMED, Scopus, CINAHL, Cochrane, and Web of Science (WOS) databases. RESULTS: The sample of this review was composed of five studies. The factors found were: 8 predisposing, 13 disabling, 11 precipitating, and 18 reinforcing. CONCLUSION: The analysis of literary productions allowed an understanding of the main factors linked to nursing practices that influence the safety culture of patients on hemodialysis.

Relationship between the comfort level of chronic renal patients and sociodemographic and clinical variables.

OBJECTIVE: To assess the association between the comfort level of chronic hemodialysis patients with sociodemographic and clinical variables using the General Comfort Questionnaire. METHOD: Cross-sectional study, with a quantitative approach, considering 180 chronic hemodialysis renal patients. Two instruments were used: one for sociodemographic and clinical variables; and the General Comfort Questionnaire, Brazilian version. Mann-Whitney's, Kruskal-Wallis's, and Spearman's tests were used for data analysis. RESULTS: The overall comfort level of patients was 78.16%. The socio-cultural domain presented the lowest level of comfort and the psychospiritual the highest level. Some variables were significantly associated with the domains, such as marital status, education, and considering oneself to be anxious. CONCLUSION: In the four domains of comfort, it was possible to identify patients' needs, such as the presence and intensity of pain, anxiety, constipation and type of access, making it possible to guide nurses in the systematization of care and improve the comfort of these patients.

Effect of cryotherapy in preventing mucositis associated with the use of 5-fluorouracil.

OBJECTIVE: to evaluate the effect of oral cryotherapy compared to physiological serum on the development of oral mucositis in outpatient cancer patients using the 5-fluorouracil antineoplastic agent. METHOD: this is a controlled, randomized, double-blind, and multi-center clinical trial, conducted with 60 patients undergoing chemotherapy. The experimental group (n=30) used oral cryotherapy during the infusion of the 5-FU antineoplastic agent, while the control group (n=30) performed mouthwash with physiological serum at their homes. The oral cavity of the participants was assessed at three times: before randomization, and on the 7th and 14th days after using 5-FU. For data analysis, descriptive analyses and the ANOVA, paired t, and McNemar tests were used. RESULTS: there was no statistically significant difference between the experimental and control groups in the assessments regarding the grade of mucositis. However, cryotherapy presented the chance to reduce the presence of intragroup mucositis, between the first and second assessments (p=0.000126). CONCLUSION: cryotherapy did not obtain statistical significance in relation to oral hygiene with serum, but it proved to be effective intragroup. Record number: RBR-4k7zh3.

Factors related to impaired comfort in chronic kidney disease patients on hemodialysis.

OBJECTIVE: to analyze the factors related to the impaired comfort of chronic kidney diseases (CKD) patients on hemodialysis. METHOD: this is a cross-sectional study with 80 patients undergoing hemodialysis in a renal replacement therapy unit through interviews using two instruments, one for clinical and sociodemographic characteristics and the General Comfort Questionnaire, during the hemodialysis session. Mann-Whitney tests and the logistic regression model were used for data analysis. RESULTS: the study found that being younger (p=0.045); being married (p=0.05); and absence of impaired physical mobility (p=0.007) were contributing factors for greater comfort in CKD patients on hemodialysis. Thus, when establishing the odds ratio, it was possible to observe that being 55 years of age or older, being single and having impaired physical mobility represents a 45.7% chance of developing this diagnosis. CONCLUSIONS: sociodemographic and clinical variables contribute to the study outcome, demanding attention during the planning of nursing interventions.

Sleep quality analysis in individuals with acute coronary syndrome / Análisis de la calidad del sueño en individuos con síndrome coronario agudo / Análise da qualidade do sono em indivíduos com síndrome coronariana aguda

ABSTRACT Objective: to assess the prevalence of sleep disturbances and factors associated with sleep quality in patients with Acute Coronary Syndrome. Method: this is a cross-sectional study, carried out in the Cardiology Unit of a public university hospital, from October 2021 to December 2022, with patients hospitalized for Acute Coronary Syndrome over 18 years old. Sociodemographic and clinical data were collected, and sleep quality was measured by the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index. Statistical association tests were performed, considering a value of p<0.05 as significant. Results: a total of 96 patients were included, the majority being male, married and with a mean age of 63 years. The most prevalent comorbidities were hypertension, dyslipidemia and diabetes. It was identified that 92% had alteration in sleep quality and that the number of hours slept (p.<0.01), time to start sleep (p.0.03), sleep latency (p.<0.01), sleep duration (p.<0.01), habitual sleep efficiency (p.<0.02) and daytime sleepiness and daytime dysfunction (p.0.01) were significantly associated with sleep quality. There was a weak but significant correlation between age (r-0.22, p.0.02) and the presence of obstructive coronary lesions (r-0.23; p.0.02) with the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index score. Conclusion: most patients with acute coronary syndrome were classified as poor sleepers, therefore educational interventions to promote sleep should be performed in this population to reduce cardiovascular risk.

Cultural adaptation and reliability of the General Comfort Questionnaire for chronic renal patients in Brazil.

OBJECTIVE: to make the cultural adaptation and evaluate the reliability of the Brazilian version of the General Comfort Questionnaire for chronic hemodialytic renal patients. METHOD: methodological study with the following steps: translation; consensus among judges; back-translation; validation of equivalence (semantic, idiomatic, experimental and conceptual) by 12 judges; and pre-test with 80 chronic renal patients on hemodialysis. Reliability was checked through measures of internal consistency (Cronbach's alpha). RESULTS: the overall consensus of the instrument had 94.3% of equivalence. Twenty-one items of the instrument were modified. Of these, only two needed semantic and idiomatic changes. The other 19 underwent few modifications, such as reversing words in the sentence and replacing some corresponding synonym terms. The Cronbach's alpha was 0.80, indicating optimal internal consistency. In the application, the total score ranged from 116 to 172 points (M = 151.66; SD = ± 12.60). CONCLUSION: the validation of the Portuguese version of the instrument represents one additional resource to be made available to nephrologist nurses; it will aid in directing the decision-making so that the nursing interventions be performed according to the level of comfort and domain, either physical, socio-cultural, environmental or psycho-spiritual. The tool was named in Portuguese: General Comfort Questionnaire - Brazilian version.
