Middle range theory for the nursing phenomenon Ineffective social support network.

PURPOSE: To describe a middle range theory (MRT) with conceptual and explicative capacity of cause and effect situations of Ineffective social support network in nursing. DATA SOURCES: Descriptive study developed through the Lopes, Silva, and Herdman theoretical-causal validity method, using five steps for theory construction: definition of the approach for constructing the MRT, definition of the main concepts, development of the pictorial diagram, construction of propositions, and establishment of causal relationships and evidence for practice. The foundation of these steps and the development of a predictive nursing theory occurred through Sanicola's Social Network Theory combined with studies from an integrative literature review using the six steps proposed by Whittemore and Knafl. DATA SYNTHESIS-FINDINGS: The theory presents etiological factors and clinical indicators for Ineffective social support network, connecting situations related to the person, the members and the configuration of this network, and external situations. The pictogram, symbolically created, represents the hierarchical classification of proximal, intermediate, and distal etiological factors, and their relationship with clinical indicators. CONCLUSIONS: The MRT, predictive for the nursing phenomenon Ineffective social support network, provides understanding of the person from an interpersonal perspective, which interferes with and is affected by a network of virtues and vicissitudes, and has negative influences on health outcomes. Due to its practical vocation, this theory represents an advance in the science and praxis of nursing. IMPLICATIONS FOR CLINICAL PRACTICE: The findings of this study will contribute to the understanding of the nursing phenomenon Ineffective social support network and consequently support the identification of the nursing diagnosis Ineffective social support network, proposed for inclusion in the NANDA-I classification.

Analysis of etiological factors of nursing diagnosis of impaired comfort in children and adolescents with cancer.

AIM: To analyse the etiological factors of the nursing diagnosis of impaired comfort in children and adolescents with cancer. DESIGN: This cross-sectional study was carried out in the referral unit for the treatment of childhood cancer in a tertiary hospital located in northeastern Brazil. METHODS: A total of 200 children and adolescents who were undergoing cancer treatment were included in this study. Data collection instruments and protocols were constructed with operational and conceptual definitions of clinical indicators and etiological factors for the nursing diagnosis of impaired comfort. A latent class model with adjusted random effects was used to determine impaired comfort and measures of sensitivity and specificity of clinical indicators. A univariate logistic regression analysis was performed for each etiological factor of impaired comfort. RESULTS: The analysis of etiological factors for the nursing diagnosis of impaired comfort in children and adolescents with cancer showed the high prevalence of four factors: noxious environmental stimuli, insufficient situational control, insufficient resources and insufficient environmental control. Illness-related symptoms, noxious environmental stimuli, and insufficient environmental control increased the chance of impaired comfort occurring. CONCLUSION: The etiological factors with the highest prevalence and most significant impact on the occurrence of impaired comfort were noxious environmental stimuli, insufficient situational control and illness-related symptoms. IMPACT: The results obtained in this investigation can support more accurate nursing diagnostic inference of impaired comfort in children and adolescents with cancer. Moreover, the results can inform direct interventions for the modifiable factors that trigger this phenomenon to avoid or minimize the signs and symptoms of the nursing diagnosis.

The clinical indicators alteration in respiratory rate and alteration in respiratory pattern were the most accurate for critical adult patients. The findings of this study contribute to accurate diagnostic inferences and to prevention of respiratory complications in these patients.

Clinical validation of the nursing diagnosis "Ineffective health self-management" in people living with HIV.

OBJECTIVE: Check diagnostic accuracy of the defining characteristics of the nursing diagnosis "Ineffective health self-management" in people living with HIV. METHODS: Methodological study conducted in a specialized public service for people living with HIV in Northeastern Brazil, between February and April 2021, with a sample of 203 people. Latent class analysis was used to calculate the accuracy measurements of the defining characteristics, as well as the sensitivity and specificity values with their respective 95% confidence intervals. The likelihood ratio test (G2 ) was applied to evaluate the adequacy of the fit of the models obtained (p > 0.05). RESULTS: The prevalence of Ineffective health self-management estimated through the latent class model was 67.5%. "Exacerbation of diseases symptoms," "failure to take action that reduces risk factor," "exacerbation of diseases signs," and "ineffective choices in daily living for meeting health goal" had the highest sensitivity values (0.80-0.9429). "Exhibits disease sequelae," "inattentive to diseases signs," and "inattentive to disease symptoms" had the highest specificity values (0.9999-1.0000). CONCLUSIONS: The useful characteristics for discriminating PLHIV with and without diagnosis are "exacerbation of diseases symptoms," "failure to take action that reduces risk factor," "exacerbation of diseases signs," and "ineffective choices in daily living for meeting health goal." The diagnosis can be confirmed by the indicators "exhibits disease sequelae", "inattentive to diseases signs," and "inattentive to disease symptoms." IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSING PRACTICES: The study demonstrates the levels of importance of the defining characteristics of "Ineffective health self-management" in people living with HIV contributes to suspicion and accurate diagnostic identification of nurses and researchers.

Diagnostic accuracy of clinical indicators of Imbalanced nutrition in pediatric patients submitted to chemotherapy.

To analyze the accuracy of clinical indicators of nursing diagnosis, Imbalanced nutrition: less than the body requirements in pediatric patients undergoing chemotherapy. A cross-sectional study was carried out in a pediatric oncohematology unit. A total of 123 children aged 5-18 years were evaluated. The Standards for Reporting Diagnostic Accuracy Studies (STARD) protocol was used. Latent class analysis was performed to obtain sensitivity and specificity of clinical indicators. The diagnosis was identified in six children (5.23%). The most frequent clinical indicator in the study was report of food intake less than recommended daily allowance (n = 61; 49.6%), followed by excessive hair loss (n = 49; 39.8%), misperception (n = 42; 34.1%), satiety immediately upon ingesting food (n = 32; 26%), lack of information (n = 30; 24.4%), and pale mucous membranes (n = 22; 17.9%). The 10 indicators that sensitivity and specificity were statistically superior to 50% were food intake less than recommended daily allowance, misperception, insufficient interest in food, lack of food, hyperactive bowel sounds, body weight 20% or more below ideal weight range, insufficient muscle tone, food aversion, abdominal cramping, and misinformation. The clinical indicators Food intake less than recommended daily allowance and Misperception can be considered the most important indicators for the initial inference of the diagnosis due to their high values of specificity and sensitivity. It is essential that nurses provide targeted and qualified assistance based on the signs and symptoms presented by patients, as they will be able to design appropriate interventions to obtain the desired results.

Analysis of the content of the nursing diagnosis deficient knowledge in individuals with heart failure.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the content of the nursing diagnosis deficient knowledge in individuals with heart failure. METHODS: Methodological study to validate the content of a nursing diagnosis based on the predictive model of diversity, carried out through the organization of the phenomenon of interest and analysis by judges using the collective wisdom model. The NANDA-I Knowledge Deficient diagnosis was evaluated by 48 judges and considered valid when it presented a median content validity index ≥ 0.8 in the confidence intervals. RESULTS: Note that 66.6% of the judges indicated that the new definition proposed was more adequate than the definition adopted by NANDA-I. After the experts' analysis, the following defining characteristics were considered valid: inaccurate statements about the disease and/or therapy, inadequate performance in the management of intercurrences, increase in hospital readmissions, worsened quality of life, deficit in self-care performance, and follow-up of inadequate instruction; related factors are as follows: inadequate guidance offered by health professionals, nonparticipation of the patient in the planning of their health care, weakened relationship between professional and individual; populations at risk-elderly and low level of education of the individual and/or caregiver and the associated condition, mild cognitive impairment. Anxiety, depression, and impaired social interaction were elements considered not relevant to the content domain. CONCLUSION: The validation of the content of the aforementioned diagnosis in patients with heart failure, through the analysis of judges with different degrees of expertise, made it possible to improve the definition and expansion of new diagnostic indicators. IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSING PRACTICE: Updated diagnostic elements for the nursing diagnosis deficient knowledge in individuals with heart failure will facilitate accurate clinical judgment and the establishment of a therapeutic plan aimed at etiological factors modifiable by nurses.

Ineffective health management in people with hypertension: Accuracy study.

PURPOSE: To analyze the accuracy of the clinical indicators of the nursing diagnosis Ineffective Health Management in people with hypertension. METHODS: This is a cross-sectional diagnostic accuracy study. The ineffective health management was investigated in 120 people with hypertension in a referral public outpatient clinic in Brazil between August and November 2020. The accuracy measures were analyzed using Rasch analysis, considering the difficulty of clinical indicator and person's ability. RESULTS: Ineffective health management is probably present in 37.5% of people with hypertension. 'Failure to include treatment regimen in daily living' was the clinical indicator with the highest sensitivity value, and 'failure to take action to reduce risk factor' had the highest specificity value. CONCLUSIONS: Rasch analysis demonstrated that all clinical indicators contribute significantly to estimating the presence of ineffective health management in people with hypertension in the outpatient scenario. IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSING PRACTICE: This research contributes by providing accurate clinical indicators of ineffective health management, helping nurses prescribe and deliver the appropriate nursing interventions for people with hypertension by telenursing.

Resumo Objetivo Avaliar a efetividade de uma cartilha educativa para promoção do estilo de vida saudável e adesão aos antirretrovirais em pessoas com HIV. Métodos Ensaio clínico randomizado em ambulatório de Fortaleza, Ceará, Brasil, com 70 pacientes no grupo intervenção e 74 no controle. Critérios de inclusão: pessoas com HIV maiores de 18 anos, de ambos os sexos, em terapia antirretroviral por mais de seis meses, ter telefone fixo ou celular, e 35 ou mais pontos na Escala de Letramento em Saúde. A coleta de dados ocorreu em quatro momentos, utilizando-se a Escala de Perfil do Estilo de Vida Individual e o Questionário para Avaliação da Adesão ao Tratamento Antirretroviral. O grupo controle recebeu a consulta médica de rotina, e o grupo intervenção, além da consulta de rotina, realizou a leitura da cartilha em consultório, e depois levou-a para o domicílio. Na estatística, utilizou-se análise de variância não paramétrica de medidas repetidas. Resultados A maioria dos participantes tinha estilo de vida insatisfatório na avaliação basal.

Clinical indicators of the nursing diagnosis ineffective health management: Systematic review and meta-analysis.

BACKGROUND: Nursing diagnoses should reasonably represent global nursing practice phenomena, organizing indicators in their clinical structure that represent different scenarios and populations. However, few studies have summarized the evidence of these indicators, mainly for behavioral diagnoses. AIM: This systematic review aimed to identify the best clinical indicators (CI) to determine the presence or absence of the nursing diagnosis "Ineffective Health Management" (IHM). METHOD: A systematic review with meta-analysis was utilized. Six electronic databases were consulted to retrieve studies that identified the nursing diagnosis IHM, with at least one CI. The period of data collection was between September and October 2020. The research group independently conducted the selection, quality assessment, data extraction, and analysis of all included studies. Fixed-effect measures and meta-analyses summarized sensitivity, specificity measures, and diagnostic odds ratios using the statistical software R. The preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analyses and standards for reporting studies of diagnostic accuracy guidelines were used to guide this review, and quality assessment of diagnostic accuracy studies was used for the critical appraisal of the methodological quality of the included studies. RESULTS: The systematic review included 11 studies on people with chronic conditions, the elderly, and pregnant women. The analyzed four CI showed diagnostic odds ratios statistically higher than the unit value, highlighting the "Failure to include the treatment regimen in daily living" (DOR = 45.53; CI = 10.1, 205.6). LINKING EVIDENCE TO ACTION: Overall, findings showed that all CI of the IHM nursing diagnosis had good sensitivity, specificity, and diagnostic odds ratio measures to identify their presence correctly. These findings can contribute to better accuracy in nurses' decision-making process, providing indicators to infer the IHM nursing diagnosis early in different population spectra based on the best measures of diagnostic accuracy.
