Accuracy of the defining characteristics of the nursing diagnosis ineffective peripheral tissue perfusion in patients with diabetic foot.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the accuracy of the defining characteristics of the nursing diagnosis ineffective peripheral tissue perfusion in patients with diabetic foot. METHOD: A diagnostic accuracy study with a cross-sectional design was carried out with patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus on outpatient diabetic foot treatment. We evaluated 134 patients with diabetic foot to determine the accuracy of the defining characteristics of ineffective peripheral tissue perfusion. A latent class model with random effects was used to establish the sensitivity and specificity of the defining characteristics assessed. RESULTS: Ineffective peripheral tissue perfusion was present in 83.79% of the patients. The defining characteristics color does not return to lowered limb after 1-minute leg elevation and edema had high sensitivity (0.8370 and 0.7213) and specificity (0.9991 and 0.9995). CONCLUSION: The defining characteristics color does not return to lowered limb after 1-minute leg elevation and edema are good clinical indicators that can be used for screening and confirming ineffective peripheral tissue perfusion in patients with diabetic foot.

Etiological factors related to the nursing diagnosis "post-trauma syndrome" in women victims of violence: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

OBJECTIVE: Identify etiological factors related to the determination of the nursing diagnosis post-trauma syndrome in women victims of violence DATA SOURCE: : Five databases were searched: SciVerse Scopus, PubMed, Latin American and Caribbean Health Sciences Literature, CINAHL with Full Text, and PsycINFO DATA SYNTHESIS: : A total of nine etiological factors related to post-trauma syndrome were identified: physical assault, sexual assault, psychological violence, childhood trauma, low education level, low socioeconomic status, lack of employment, age under 40 years, and depression severity. Such factors were associated with the nursing diagnosis of post-trauma syndrome, according to the synthesis CONCLUSION: : We believe that identifying the nursing diagnosis post-trauma syndrome in its current form shown in the NANDA-I taxonomy is limited as the determination of nursing interventions is based on the etiological factors identified during the diagnostic reasoning step IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSING PRACTICE: : This study brings the need to implement knowledge about nursing diagnoses related to violence against women, highlighting the lack of literature that can exemplify the practice of nurses with regard to care relevant to the public in question.

Qualidade do sono das crianças internadas com síndrome do respirador bucal / Sleep quality in hospitalized children with syndrome of the oral respirator

Resumo Objetivo: analisar a qualidade do sono das crianças internadas em hospital com síndrome de respiração bucal. Método: pesquisa descritiva, com componente analítico e abordagem quantitativa, desenvolvido com 80 crianças na faixa etária de 5 a 12 anos, internadas em hospital da região Nordeste do Brasil. Realizada a partir de entrevista com pais e/ou responsáveis pelas crianças participantes e questionário Índice da qualidade do sono de Pittsburgh. Resultados: 30 % das crianças respiradoras bucais apresentaram qualidade do sono muito boa e 43,8 % boa. Os componentes que mais interferiram para qualidade do sono boa foram: qualidade do sono (p < 0,001), latência (p < 0,000) e disfunção diurna (p < 0,000), assim como duração do sono, eficiência habitual do sono e uso de medicação para dormir, com valor de p sem significância. Conclusão: as crianças respiradoras bucais apresentaram boa qualidade do sono, segundo percepções de pais e/ou cuidadores.

Abstract Objective: to analyze the sleep quality in hospitalized children with syndrome of the oral respirator. Method: descriptive research with analytical component and quantitative approach, with 80 children in the age group between 5 to 12 years, being in a hospital in the northeast of Brazil. An interview was conducted with parents or guardians of children and the Pittsburgh Index of Sleep Quality questionnaire was applied. Results: 30 % of children with oral respirators presented very good sleep quality and 43.8 %, good. The components that most interfered in the good sleep quality were: sleep quality (p < 0.001), latency (p < 0.000) and daytime dysfunction (p < 0.000), as well as duration of sleep, habitual efficiency of sleep and use of medication for sleep, with p-value without significance. Conclusion: children with oral respirators had good sleep quality according to the perceptions of parents or caregivers.
