Adaptation and validation of the Hospital Survey on Patient Safety Culture in an electronic Brazilian version. / Adaptação e validação do Hospital Survey on Patient Safety Culture em versão brasileira eletrônica.

OBJECTIVE: to adapt the Hospital Survey on Patient Safety Culture (HSOPSC) to the Brazilian context and validate a computer program that facilitates the collection and analysis of data in hospitals with different types of management. METHODS: methodological study developed in six hospitals in Natal-RN, Brazil; a software which allows data collection via e-mail, cloud storage and automatic data report was developed; validity was verified through confirmatory factor analysis and reliability, through consistency analysis with Cronbach's alpha. RESULTS: 863 professionals participated in the study; the adapted version presented total Cronbach's alpha of 0.92 and median of 0.69 in the 12 dimensions (90% confidence interval: 0.53;0.87); the model was fitted and showed good indexes in the confirmatory factor analysis. CONCLUSION: the results confirmed the validity and reliability of the instrument with adequate psychometric properties for the assessment of patient's safety culture in Brazilian hospitals.

OBJETIVO: adaptar o instrumento Hospital Survey on Patient Safety Culture (HSOPSC) para o contexto brasileiro e validar um programa computacional que facilite a coleta e análise dos dados em hospitais com diferentes tipos de gestão. MÉTODOS: estudo metodológico desenvolvido em seis hospitais de Natal-RN, Brasil; foi desenvolvido um software que permite coleta via e-mail, armazenamento eletrônico em "nuvem" e relatório automático dos dados; a validade foi verificada mediante análise fatorial confirmatória, e a confiabilidade, mediante análise de consistência com cálculo do alfa de Cronbach. RESULTADOS: 863 profissionais participaram do estudo; a versão adaptada apresentou alfa de Cronbach total de 0,92 e mediana de 0,69 nas 12 dimensões (intervalo de confiança de 90%: 0,53;0,87); o modelo foi ajustado e revelou bons índices na análise fatorial confirmatória. CONCLUSÃO: os resultados confirmaram validade e confiabilidade do instrumento, com adequadas propriedades psicométricas para avaliação da cultura de segurança do paciente em hospitais brasileiros.

OBJETIVO: adaptar el Hospital Survey on Patient Safety Culture (HSOPSC) al contexto brasileño y validar un programa informático que facilite la colecta y análisis de datos en hospitales con diferentes tipos de gestión. MÉTODOS: estudio metodológico de adaptación y validación en seis hospitales de Natal-RN, Brasil; se desarrolló un software que permite la colecta por correo electrónico, almacenamiento en nube e elaboración de informe automático; la validez se analizó mediante análisis factorial confirmatoria y consistencia a través del cálculo alfa de Cronbach. RESULTADOS: se obtuvo 863 respuestas; el instrumento presentó un alfa de Cronbach de 0,92 y mediana de 0,69 en las 12 dimensiones (intervalo de confianza al 90%: 0,53;0,87); el modelo se presentó ajustado y mostró buenos índices en el análisis factorial confirmatorio. CONCLUSIÓN: se confirmaron la validez y consistencia del instrumento con adecuadas propiedades psicométricas para la evaluación de la cultura de seguridad del paciente en hospitales brasileños.
