RESUMO
PURPOSE: Quantitative instruments to assess patient safety culture have been developed recently and a few review articles have been published. Measuring safety culture enables healthcare managers and staff to improve safety behaviours and outcomes for patients and staff. The study aims to determine the AHRQ Hospital Survey on Patient Safety Culture (HSPSC) Portuguese version's validity and reliability. DESIGN/METHODOLOGY/APPROACH: A missing-value analysis and item analysis was performed to identify problematic items. Reliability analysis, inter-item correlations and inter-scale correlations were done to check internal consistency, composite scores. Inter-correlations were examined to assess construct validity. A confirmatory factor analysis was performed to investigate the observed data's fit to the dimensional structure proposed in the AHRQ HSPSC Portuguese version. To analyse differences between hospitals concerning composites scores, an ANOVA analysis and multiple comparisons were done. FINDINGS: Eight of 12 dimensions had Cronbach's alphas higher than 0.7. The instrument as a whole achieved a high Cronbach's alpha (0.91). Inter-correlations showed that there is no dimension with redundant items, however dimension 10 increased its internal consistency when one item is removed. ORIGINALITY/VALUE: This study is the first to evaluate an American patient safety culture survey using Portuguese data. The survey has satisfactory reliability and construct validity.

PURPOSE: To adapt and validate the Global Trigger Tool (IHI-GTT), which identifies and analyzes adverse events (AE) in hospitalized patients and their measurement properties in the Portuguese context. METHODS: A retrospective cross-sectional study was based on a random sample of 90 medical records. The stages of translation and cross-cultural adaptation of the IHI-GTT were based on the Cross-Cultural Adaptation Protocol that originated from the Portuguese version, GTT-PT, for the hospital context in medical-surgical departments. Internal consistency, reliability, reproducibility, diagnostic tests, and discriminatory predictive value were investigated. RESULTS: The final phase of the GTT-PT showed insignificant inconsistencies. The pre-test phase confirmed translation accuracy, easy administration, effectiveness in identifying AEs, and relevance of integrating it into hospital risk management. It had a sensitivity of 97.8% and specificity of 74.8%, with a cutoff point of 0.5, an accuracy of 83%, and a positive predictive value of 69.8% and a negative predictive value of 0.98%. CONCLUSION: The GTT-PT is a reliable, accurate, and valid tool to identify AE, with robust measurement properties.
RESUMO
The scope of this article was to identify the strategies used for the participation of the patient in healthcare security in hospital and outpatient environments. It involved a systematic review of the literature based on the recommendations of the PRISMA model on the Scopus, WOS and Medline databases. The search was restricted to studies written in Portuguese, English or Spanish conducted between January 2001 and July 2016. Observational, descriptive, qualitative and/or epidemiological studies that described a development/appliance methodology using at least one patient security improvement strategy of inclusion were included. The methodological quality of the studies was assessed using the randomized Cochrane risk-of-bias tool. Thematic analyses were performed in order to analyze the results. After the application of criteria of title, abstract analysis and exclusion, 19 studies were selected. In these studies, patient security strategies that promoted patients' active participation on patient security and information request strategies were identified. In the literature, sundry strategies promoting patient participation on healthcare security, with concrete implementation methods, as well as distinct purposes for their use, were encountered.
O artigo objetiva identificar as estratégias utilizadas, para participação do paciente na segurança do cuidado de saúde. Revisão sistemática, norteada pelas recomendações do modelo PRISMA, nos bancos de dados: Scopus, WOS e Medline. Limitou-se a busca a estudos realizados entre janeiro de 2001 e julho de 2016, redigidos em português, inglês ou espanhol. Foram incluídos estudos observacionais, descritivos, qualitativos e/ou epidemiológicos, que descrevessem a metodologia de elaboração e/ou aplicação de, pelo menos, uma estratégia de inclusão dos pacientes na melhoria da segurança dos cuidados. A qualidade metodológica dos artigos foi avaliada usando a ferramenta Cochrane. Para analisar os resultados se fez uma análise temática. Após leitura de títulos, resumos e aplicação de critérios de exclusão, 19 artigos foram selecionados. Nestes se identificam estratégias de mobilização dos pacientes para a segurança dos cuidados, estratégias para promover a participação ativa dos pacientes na segurança dos cuidados e estratégias de solicitação de informação ao paciente sobre a segurança dos cuidados. Há na literatura diversas estratégias que promovem a participação do paciente na segurança dos cuidados, que têm formas e métodos concretos de implementação, bem como objetivos distintos para o seu uso.
