Nursing interventions and outcomes classifications in patients with wounds: cross-mapping. / Classificações de intervenções e resultados de enfermagem em pacientes com feridas: mapeamento cruzado.

Objective Cross-mapping of terms referring to nursing interventions and outcomes in the medical records of patients with wounds compared to nursing interventions and nursing outcomes classifications. Method An observational retrospective study based on cross-mapping. The sample consisted of 81 outpatients treated in a university hospital in Rio de Janeiro. Data was collected from medical records between May and July of 2013. The analysis was done in four steps: search for phrases used to describe interventions and outcomes; setting the frequency of occurrence of phrases; grouping synonyms; comparison of terms with taxonomies. Results 13 interventions were mapped and the most frequent was "Care with wounds" (47.23%). Also, 6 results were mapped and the priority was "Wound healing: secondary intention" (45%). Conclusions The use of cross-mapping of terms referring to interventions and nursing outcomes in patients with wounds suggested additions to the taxonomies for adaptation to outpatient care.

Translation and cross-cultural adaptation of the ABC taxonomy for medication adherence into Portuguese - Updating patients into people.

BACKGROUND: The Ascertaining Barriers to Compliance (ABC) taxonomy for describing medication adherence was created in 2012, aiming to standardize terms and definitions in research and practice. The taxonomy comprises seven terms and definitions. Originally developed in English, subsequently translated into French and German, is currently being translated to Portuguese, Spanish, Czech, Romanian and Italian, aiming to promote its global use and overcome cultural barriers. OBJECTIVES: To cross-culturally translate the ABC taxonomy into Portuguese for Portugal and Brazil. METHODS: A systematic literature search was conducted to identify published taxonomy terms and definitions in Portuguese, and to identify panelists in medication adherence. Initial mapping of terms and definitions retrieved was scrutinized by the research team to build an e-survey. The e-survey was piloted and then sent to panelists in both countries seeking consensus using a three-round Delphi method. Consensus was defined as ≥ 85% for round 1 and ≥ 75% for round 2. Terms with agreement <10% were dropped between rounds. In round 3, terms and definitions reaching agreement between 50 and 75% were classified as moderate consensus,>75-95% as consensus and >95% as strong consensus. RESULTS: A total of 778 studies were identified and 84 included, enabling the extraction of 154 terms and 32 definitions. In round 1, 164 panelists participated, 115 in round 2 and 99 in the round 3. Consensus was achieved in both countries for all seven terms and definitions, although with varying intensity of agreement. The term "Management of adherence" and the definition of "Discontinuation" obtained moderate consensus in both countries. CONCLUSIONS: A unified and unique ABC taxonomy in Portuguese was possible to develop for use in Portugal and in Brazil. Its use will harmonize and standardize the terms and definitions used in clinical practice and research.

RESVECH 2.0: cross-cultural adaptation for Brazil, reliability and validity for the evaluation of venous ulcers.

OBJECTIVES: to cross-culturally adapt the scale Resultados en la valoración y evolución de la cicatrización de las heridas - RESVECH 2.0 for Brazilian Portuguese; to estimate the internal consistency and construct and criterion validity of the scale in the evaluation of venous ulcers. METHODS: methodological study, based on international guidelines for studies of this type. Wounds were evaluated using the RESVECH 2.0 and Pressure Ulcer Scale of Healing 3.0 (PUSH). Descriptive analysis, confirmatory factor analysis, Cronbach's alpha and Spearman's correlation (p<0.05) were used. RESULTS: 12 nurses and 77 people with 153 venous ulcers participated in the study. The translation was successful, the proposed factor model was validated, and Cronbach 's alpha = 0.832 (95%CI, 0.780-0.880) and correlation coefficient (RESVECH 2.0 and PUSH 3.0) = 0.74 were obtained. CONCLUSIONS: the adaptation of RESVECH 2.0 to Brazilian Portuguese is robust. Reliability and validity show compatibility for use in the country in the evaluation of venous ulcers.

Effectiveness of Epidermal Growth Factor Loaded Carboxymethylcellulose (EGF-CMC) Hydrogel in Biofilm Formation in Wounds of Diabetic Patients: A Randomized Clinical Trial.

Diabetic patients frequently develop wounds, which can be colonized by bacteria, mainly Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, with the ability to form biofilms. This study aimed to evaluate the colonization and biofilm formation of Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa in chronic wounds of diabetic patients treated with a bioactive dressing (EGF-CMC), which consisted of a 2% carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) hydrogel loaded with epidermal growth factor (EGF). This randomized clinical trial was conducted with 25 participants: 14 treated with EGF-CMC hydrogel and 11 treated with CMC hydrogel for 12 weeks. Participants with type 2 diabetes mellitus were selected. All had diabetic foot ulcers or chronic venous ulcers. Swab collections were performed on weeks 1, 6, and 12. The laboratory analyses included the identification of strains, microbial quantification, virulence gene investigation, and the evaluation of biofilm formation. In total, 13 S. aureus strains and 15 P. aeruginosa strains were isolated. There were no statistically significant differences regarding bacterial loads and virulence genes. However, EGF-CMC-hydrogel-treated wounds were colonized by strains with lower biofilm formation abilities. The probability of isolating biofilm-producing strains from CMC-hydrogel-treated wounds was 83% greater than the probability of isolating biofilm-producing strains from EGF-CMC-treated wounds.

Implementation of an innovative model of community nursing for older adults based on Buurtzorg principles: a scoping review protocol.

OBJECTIVE: The objective of this review is to map the international evidence on the implementation of the Buurtzorg model of community nursing practice for the care of older adults. We will describe where and how it has been used, and the challenges and facilitators of implementing this model of care. INTRODUCTION: The challenges of aging have mobilized health systems around the world to replace the current facility- and disease-centered care model with integrated patient-centered care models. The Buurtzorg model provides autonomy to nurses, who, in turn, empower patients in need-based and self-reliant care. INCLUSION CRITERIA: We will consider both published and unpublished studies and reports exploring the process of implementing the Buurtzorg community nursing model for the care of older adults (65 years and older) internationally, in all settings. Concepts of interest will include where the model has been used, how the model has been implemented, and what challenges and facilitators were reported. METHODS: We will implement a three-step search strategy to locate both published and unpublished primary studies, theses, dissertations, book chapters, and text and opinion reports using the following databases: MEDLINE, LILACS, Cochrane CENTRAL, CINAHL, Web of Science, Google Scholar, Embase, Scopus, ProQuest Dissertations and Theses Global, and the official Buurtzorg website. We will present the search strategy in a PRISMA flow diagram. Data will be extracted using Excel spreadsheets and then analyzed narratively. Extracted data will be quantitatively pooled in tables using descriptive statistics to synthesize the characteristics of the reports and sample, followed by a qualitative summary of how the Buurtzorg model has been used, and the challenges and facilitators of implementing this care model.

RESULTS: the initial steps of translation were satisfactorily developed and there was little disagreement between the translators. In the expert panel, was obtained significant concordance of 0.97. The pretest was performed with ten nurses and 30 patients. The feasibility of the translated version was evaluated with 100% agreement. FINAL CONSIDERATIONS: the instrument presented a high level of concordance among the experts during all steps and showed content validity thereby making the adaptation appropriate for the Brazilian context.

Production cost of autologous platelet rich plasma gel.

OBJECTIVE: to estimate the direct cost of producing autologous platelet rich plasma gel. METHOD: an economic, prospective, longitudinal study with direct cost estimation, from the perspective of the Unified Health System, conducted in a university hospital in the state of Rio de Janeiro, over a period of 12 weeks. It was approved by the Ethics Committee of the School of Medicine. Direct observation of 18 participants was conducted. Material and human resources categories were analyzed for production costs. RESULTS: the cost of producing platelet rich plasma gel was US $4.88 per session, for a total of US $5.16, when the material resources per unit were considered in the Unified Health System. The time to complete the procedure was approximately 22 minutes. CONCLUSION: the production of platelet rich plasma gel involves low cost material resources for both blood collection and preparation, enabling universal access to treatment. The procedure requires trained staff in an appropriate location; it is a safe and inexpensive technology.

Treatment of venous ulcers with growth factors: systematic review and meta-analysis.

OBJECTIVE: To identify evidence about the effects of growth factor application on venous ulcer healing. METHOD: Systematic review and meta-analysis, including Randomized Clinical Trials. Searches: Ovid MEDLINE, EMBASE, CINAHL, Cochrane CENTRAL, LILACS, Web of Science, Digital Library of Theses and Dissertations; Google Scholar and list of references. RESULTS: 802 participants were recruited from the 10 included studies: 472 in the intervention group (growth factors) and 330 as control. The relative risk for the complete healing outcome was 1.06 [95% CI 0.92-1.22], p = 0.41. Participants who received Platelet-Rich Plasma and Epidermal Growth Factor showed a slight tendency to achieve complete healing, but without statistical relevance (p <0.05). Most of the studies were classified as moderate risk of bias. CONCLUSION: The effect of the application of growth factors for complete healing in venous ulcers is not clear, and clinical trials with methodological quality are required for more accurate recommendations.

ABSTRACT Objective: To evaluate the presence of anemia in patients with chronic lower limb ulcers based on profile and hematometric indices. Method: This is a cross-sectional study carried out in a university hospital in Rio de Janeiro. The sample was composed of 64 participants with lower limb ulcers and evolution time greater than 12 weeks. Data was collected between May/2016 and December/2017 from hematological analyses, records from medical records, and wound assessment form. Results: 36 (56.2%) were male; 38 (59.4%) between 60 and 80 years old; 56 (87.5%) with chronic diseases and 52 (81.2%) with venous ulcers. 6 years mean of active ulceration. Anemia was detected in 36 (56.2%), 27 (75%) of which were normochromic and normocytic; 14 (38.8%) had deficiency anemia recorded in their medical chart. Conclusion: The low hemoglobin concentration is recurrent among the participants characterizing an anemia condition, whose profile reveals congruence to the anemia of chronic disease.

RESUMEN Objetivo: Evaluar la presencia de anemia en pacientes con úlceras crónicas de miembros inferiores desde el perfil e índices hematimétricos Método: Este estudio seccional transcurrió en un hospital universitario de Río de Janeiro, con una muestra de 64 participantes con úlceras en los miembros inferiores y tiempo de evolución superior a 12 semanas. Los datos se recopilaron entre mayo/2016 y diciembre/2017 investigando los análisis hematológicos, registros en las historias clínicas y formularios de evaluación de la herida. Resultados: 36 (56,2%) eran hombres; 38 (59,4%) tenían entre 60 y 80 años; 56 (87,5%) padecían de enfermedades crónicas y 52 (81,2%), de úlceras venosas. El promedio era de 6 años de úlcera activa. Se detectó anemia en 36 (56,2%), siendo que en 27 (75%) era normocrómica/normocítica; 14 (38,8%) presentaban anemia carencial registrada en la historia clínica. Conclusión: La baja concentración de hemoglobina es recurrente entre los participantes caracterizando un cuadro de anemia que coincide con el de anemia de enfermedad crónica.
