Construction and validation of a scenario for sedation training in the emergency room for pediatric surgical procedures by in-situ simulation.

INTRODUCTION: sedation and analgesia are fundamental procedures for children undergoing invasive interventions, and complications must be avoided during their implementation. In situ simulation allows, in turn, training in real practice environments to improve the technical and non-technical skills of professionals for such procedures. Although it is a very useful tool, it is often not used due to lack of preparation for its planning and application. OBJECTIVE: develop and validate an in situ simulation scenario in pediatric emergency care using sedation to perform an invasive procedure. METHOD: descriptive study of construction and content validation of an in situ simulation scenario, using the Delphi method, following the following steps: 1) definition of the problem and selection of experts; 2) development of the initial document; 3) rounds for validation with analysis of responses and feedback (until consensus is reached by the Content Validation Index); 4) final report. Results: The experts indicated suggestions that were duly used and the scenario obtained, in all items, a CVI greater than 80.0%, demonstrating its high validity and reliability. By using experts to validate the scenario, their insights guarantee greater precision and reliability in scenario construction engineering. CONCLUSION: It is expected that this study will allow the replication of the scenario in different training contexts, facilitating and encouraging professional training based on a scenario model based on best evidence and practices.

RESUMO Introdução: a sedação e analgesia são procedimentos fundamentais para crianças submetidas a intervenções invasivas, devendo-se evitar complicações durante sua realização. A simulação in situ permite, por sua vez, capacitações nos ambientes reais de prática para aprimorar as competências técnicas e não técnicas dos profissionais para tais procedimentos. Embora seja uma ferramenta de grande utilidade, muitas vezes não é aproveitada pelo despreparo para seu planejamento e aplicação. Objetivo: elaborar e validar um cenário de simulação in situ no atendimento de urgências pediátricas com uso de sedação para realização de procedimento invasivo. Método: estudo descritivo de construção e validação de conteúdo de um cenário de simulação in situ, por meio do método Delphi, seguindo os seguintes passos: 1) definição do problema e seleção de especialistas; 2) desenvolvimento do documento inicial; 3) rodadas para validação com análise das respostas e feedback (até obtenção do consenso pelo Índice de Validação de Conteúdo); 4) relatório final. Resultados: Os especialistas indicaram sugestões devidamente aproveitadas e o cenário obteve, em todos os itens, um IVC maior que 80,0% demonstrando sua alta validade e confiabilidade. Ao usar especialistas para validar o cenário, seus insights garatem maior precisão e confiabilidade à engenharia de construção dos cenários. Conclusão: espera-se, que este estudo permita a replicação do cenário em diferentes contextos de formação facilitando e incentivando a capacitação profissional a partir de um modelo de cenário baseado em melhores evidências e práticas.

Mammalian Target of Rapamycin Inhibitors Vs Calcineurin Inhibitors in Chronic Graft Rejection After Lung Transplantation: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

BACKGROUND: The number of lung transplantations has been rising constantly. However, use of this therapeutic resource is limited by several issues that are difficult to resolve, such as chronic graft rejection and complications secondary to immunosuppression. METHODS: This systematic review compared mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) inhibitor immunosuppression associated with low-dose calcineurin inhibitors with isolated calcineurin inhibitor immunosuppression on the new-onset chronic rejection development and mortality 12 months after lung transplantation. Three controlled randomized clinical trials (SHITRIT, NOCTET, and 4EVERLUNG) were selected from electronic databases. RESULTS: Meta-analysis of the data at 12 months postintervention showed that only 4EVERLUNG assessed chronic graft rejection, with a higher incidence in the control group; however, the difference was not statistically significant (P = .197). Significant data were related to an increase in the number of adverse events (P = .0064) and improved renal function (P < .0001) in the mTOR inhibitor-based scheme. The other outcomes indicated a trend toward greater risk of death and acute graft rejection with the use of mTORs. CONCLUSIONS: The researchers suggest considering the use of mTOR inhibitors, whose greatest benefit is felt by patients with renal dysfunction, in association with the use of calcineurin inhibitors, because of the imminent risk of death among patients with renal failure.
