Objetivo:avaliar o conhecimento, a atitude e a prática (CAP) de gestantes sobre incontinência urinária (IU), identificar a prevalência de IU durante a gestação, avaliar seu impacto na qualidade de vida (QV) e identificar os fatores associados ao CAP inadequados em relação à IU. Metodologia: Estudo observacional realizado de maio a novembro de 2019 na cidade de Fortaleza, Ceará. Utilizaram-se dois instrumentos para coleta de dados: um para avaliação sociodemográfica, obstétrica e de perdas urinárias e outro para avaliação do CAP sobre IU. Resultados: Participaram 237 gestantes. A prevalência de IU foi de 49,3% e observou-se baixo impacto na QV. A maioria apresentou conhecimento (89,6%) e prática inadequados tanto para prevenir (89,2%) quanto para tratar (78,8%) a IU. Identificaram-se baixos percentuais de acerto relacionados ao conhecimento sobre fatores de risco (46,8%), prevenção (43,8%) e tratamento da IU (42,8%). Apesar disso, a atitude foi considerada adequada para a maioria das mulheres (98,5%). Ausência de orientação sobre o preparo do períneo para o parto durante o pré-natal (p = 0,019), baixa escolaridade (p < 0,001), casos mais leves de IU (p = 0,027) e gestação de alto risco (p = 0,004) associaram-se a prática inadequada. Conclusão: o conhecimento sobre causas, prevenção e tratamento da IU é insuficiente e interfere no manejo dessa condição.perineum for childbirth during prenatal care (p = 0.019), low education (p < 0.001), milder cases of UI (p = 0.027) and high-risk pregnancy (p = 0.004) were associated with inappropriate practice.

Brazilian Portuguese translation, cross-cultural adaptation, and content validation of the pediatric lower urinary tract symptom score.

BACKGROUND: Early screening instruments for professionals are important to reduce the cost and time of diagnosing pediatric lower urinary tract dysfunction. This study aimed to translate, cross-culturally adapt, and validate pediatric lower urinary tract symptom scores. METHODS: This methodological study was conducted in 2019 in two phases: translation and cross-cultural adaptation, and content validation. In the first phase, we used translators, specialists, and 30 parents of children with voiding dysfunction. In the second phase, validation was performed by 11 pediatric urology specialists. FINDINGS: The instrument was translated and adapted to Brazilian Portuguese and presented an excellent level of verbal comprehension. Further, the instrument presented a good content validity index >0.8 for all items, except for the nomenclature and clarity of two items, as indicated by the Cronbach's alpha value of 0.75 for internal consistency. DISCUSSION: The final version showed semantic, idiomatic, experiential, and conceptual equivalence with the original instrument, indicating that it is adequate for other assessments of psychometric qualities. PRACTICE IMPLICATIONS: The translation and adaptation of an important instrument for diagnosing lower urinary tract dysfunction in children to other countries helps nurses identify the disease early and monitor the treatment.

Validation of Visual Prostate Symptom Score (VPSS) in Brazilian Sample Population.

PURPOSE: The aim of the study was to evaluate the reliability and validity of the Visual Prostate Symptom Score (VPSS), its correlation with the International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS), and the time required and need for help when completing the instrument. We also aimed to identify variables associated with difficulty completing these instruments. DESIGN: Longitudinal, prospective correlational study. SUBJECTS AND SETTING: The target population was Brazilian men from different cities within the state of São Paulo with lower urinary tract symptoms followed in urological consultation at a university hospital during October 2017. The sample comprised 59 patients with a mean age of 66.53 years. METHODS: Reliability of the VPSS was evaluated using a test-retest approach and its convergent validity with the IPSS. Cronbach α coefficient was also calculated. Both questionnaires were self-administered and, in case of difficulty of comprehension, assistance was provided. RESULTS: Mean completion time of the IPSS was 6.56 minutes and for VPSS was 5.02 minutes. The variables skin color and educational level were associated with the difficulty in completing the IPSS and for comprehending meaning of the VPSS pictograms. Internal consistency evaluated using Cronbach α coefficient was 0.74 for IPSS and 0.15 for VPSS, respectively. Test-retest reliability testing revealed that both instruments had a high intraclass correlation index (>0.75). There was a significant correlation between the health-related quality of life (QoL) scores of the 2 instruments (0.71, P = .0001) and between the total score of each instrument with its corresponding QoL score. CONCLUSION: Although time for response of the VPSS was shorter and it demonstrated good test-retest reliability, it more frequently required help to answer. The VPSS showed low internal consistency and low correlation with the IPSS (except for the QoL item).

Form for planning and elaborating high fidelity simulation scenarios: A validation study.

Every human being has the right to safe, dignified and harm-free care in health institutions. High fidelity simulation has been used in teaching for the training and continuing education of health professionals to promote quality, safe and humanized patient care. Elaborating scenarios is an important phase to provide a simulation-based experience, and is relevant in the teaching-learning process. The objective of this study was to validate the content and applicability of the High Fidelity Simulation Scenario Planning and Development Form and its Operational Manual. The form could be used to development of scenarios to medicine, nursing, physiotherapy and as well as other specialties in the healthcare. This was a methodological validation study of the form and its manual content by experts in simulation and its feasibility, conducted in two phases: Phase 1: eight experts were selected using the "snowball" sampling technique to validate the content measured by the content validity index; Phase 2 (test): the form and its operational manual validated by the experts were made available to 28 participants in order to elaborate scenarios for the feasibility assessment and participation in the focus group. All items in the form and in the operational manual reached a content validity index above 0.80. The total content validity index was 0.98. The evaluation of the usability of the instruments carried out by the participants reached a percentage above 96.43% in all alternatives except for the item "It was easy to use the form to build your scenario" (75%). Eight participants were present in the focus group. Focus group discussions were categorized into completeness, practicality and usefulness according to comments and suggestions. The form and its operational manual proved to be valid instruments.

Recomendações clínicas para prevenir e tratar a retenção urinária pós-parto / Clinical recommendations to prevent and treat postpartum urinary retention

A retenção urinária pós-parto (RUPP) é considerada um distúrbio urinário e embora não esteja associada à mortalidade, sua morbidade é significativa. Acredita-se que diretrizes pré-estabelecidas, somadas aos achados do exame físico puerperal, possam dar suporte à prática clínica do profissional e, consequentemente, preservam a autonomia estrutural e funcional do sistema urinário da mulher. Assim, o objetivo deste estudo é estabelecer consenso entre especialistas acerca de uma proposta de recomendações clínicas baseadas em evidências para prevenir e tratar a RUPP. Trata-se de estudo descritivo-exploratório, de natureza quantitativa, desenvolvido por meio da técnica Delphi. Foi elaborada uma proposta inicial com 48 recomendações clínicas baseadas em evidências, distribuídas em três domínios. A primeira rodada do Painel Delphi foi composta por 19 especialistas, a segunda por 16 especialistas e a terceira por 13 especialistas. Ao final do Painel Delphi, 27 (56,3%) recomendações obtiveram consenso superior a 90%. Dessas, nove (33,3%) visavam a prevenção da RUPP evidente e oculta, e pertenciam ao Domínio ­ 1, nove (33,3%) visavam o tratamento da RUPP evidente e oculta, e pertenciam ao Domínio ­ 2 e nove (33,3%) visavam a reeducação da bexiga na RUPP persistente e pertenciam ao Domínio ­ 3. Considera-se que as recomendações aprovadas por meio deste consenso apoiam a tomada de decisão dos profissionais diante dos riscos inerentes de RUPP, que pode causar, em função hiperdistensão da bexiga, danos irreversíveis ao músculo detrusor, assim como infecções recorrentes do trato urinário e dificuldade de eliminação urinária permanente.

Postpartum urinary retention (PPUR) is considered a urinary disorder and although it is not associated with mortality, its morbidity is significant. It is believed that pre-established guidelines, added to the findings of the puerperal physical examination, can support a professional's clinical practice and, consequently, preserve the structural and functional autonomy of the woman's urinary system. Thus, the aim of this study is to establish a consensus among experts on a proposal for evidence-based clinical recommendations to prevent and treat PPUR. This is a descriptive-exploratory study, of a quantitative nature, developed using the Delphi technique. An initial proposal was elaborated with 48 evidence-based clinical recommendations, distributed into three domains. The first round of the Delphi Panel consisted of 19 experts, the second of 16 experts, and the third of 13 experts. At the end of the Delphi Panel, 27 (56.3%) recommendations obtained a consensus greater than 90%. Of these, nine (33.3%) aimed at preventing overt and hidden PPUR, and belonged to Domain ­ 1, nine (33.3%) aimed at treating overt and hidden PPUR and belonged to Domain ­ 2, and nine (33.3%) aimed at bladder reeducation in persistent PPUR and belonged to Domain - 3. It is considered that the recommendations approved through this consensus support the decision-making of professionals in the face of the inherent risks of PPUR, which can cause overdistension of bladder function, irreversible damage to the detrusor muscle, as well as recurrent urinary tract infections and difficulty in permanent urinary elimination.

A Brazilian Portuguese translation, cultural adaptation and validation of the Arrhythmia-Specific questionnaire in Tachycardia and Arrhythmia (ASTA) health-related quality of life (HRQOL) scale.

INTRODUCTION: The health-related quality of life (HRQOL) of patients with tachyarrhythmia can be negatively influenced by the clinical manifestations. The evaluation of HRQOL with validated instruments can provide valuable information that will contribute to clinical decision-making and treatment. In Brazil, however, there is no available scale that evaluates HRQOL in different types of arrhythmia. The purpose of this study was to adapt the Arrhythmia-Specific Questionnaire in Tachycardia and Arrhythmia-HRQOL scale (ASTA-HRQOL scale) to the Brazilian culture, and to assess the psychometric properties of the adapted questionnaire. METHODS: The study used a methodological process of cultural adaptation based on international literature guidelines. The analyses were performed with 172 participants, 32 for cultural adaptation and 140 for psychometric validation. Calculation included analysis of reliability by Cronbach's α coefficient, construct validity with convergent validity using the WHOQOL-BREF questionnaire and by the Spearman correlation coefficient, Average Variance Extracted, and assessment of confirmatory factor analysis. RESULTS: The translation and adaptation processes showed a satisfactory degree of comprehension and applicability (93% reported them to be easy to understand). Confirmatory factor analysis indicated exclusion of one item from the mental scale, but after qualitative analysis the item was retained. The items presented adequate internal consistency (Cronbach's alpha coefficient = 0.88), and an inverse correlation of moderate magnitude with the physical domain (rho = -0.63) and with the mental domain (rho = -0.58) of the WHOQOL-BREF. CONCLUSIONS: The Brazilian Portuguese version of the ASTA-HRQOL scale, the ASTA-Br-HRQOL scale, can be a valuable tool for use in clinical practice and research.

Content analysis of nursing diagnoses related to urinary incontinence. / Análise de conteúdo dos diagnósticos de enfermagem relacionados à incontinência urinária.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the content of nursing diagnoses related to urinary incontinence according to NANDA International and others identified in the literature. METHOD: Methodological study conducted with judges who were experts in urinary dysfunctions and nursing diagnosis. The analysis included diagnoses of Stress Urinary Incontinence, Urgency Urinary Incontinence, Functional Urinary Incontinence, Urinary Incontinence due to Neurogenic Detrusor Overactivity (previously denominated Reflex Urinary Incontinence in NANDA International's taxonomy), Mixed Urinary Incontinence, and Transient Urinary Incontinence. Wilcoxon test was applied and Content Validity Index ≥ 0.85 was considered appropriate. RESULTS: Fifty-one judges participated in this study. The judges recommended modifications in elements of all diagnoses (inclusion, exclusion or change of previous element type). CONCLUSION: The four diagnoses analyzed in NANDA International's taxonomy are recommended to be maintained with modifications; inclusion of nursing diagnoses Mixed and Transient Urinary Incontinence is also recommended.

Socioeconomic, demographic and obstetric profile of pregnant women with Hypertensive Syndrome in a public maternity.

OBJECTIVE: To describe the socioeconomic, demographic and obstetric profile of pregnant women with Gestational Hypertensive Syndrome. METHODS: A descriptive and correlational study, conducted in Maternity School Assis Chateaubriand, with 120 pregnant women, through a questionnaire analyzed by descriptive and analytical statistics. RESULTS: most women had chronic hypertension (60.83%). Regarding the socioeconomic and demographic profile, most pregnant women had a mean age of 30.9 ± 6.9 years, were Catholic, brown skin color, employed, in stable unions, complete high school education, and income of up to R$ 954.00. Regarding the obstetric profile, their Body Mass Index was up to 66, slightly elevated blood pressure, an average of five prenatal consultations, two pregnancies, one delivery and no abortions. Women with chronic hypertension were older (p = 0.0024), had lower gestational age (p = 0.0219) and a higher number of abortions (p = 0.0140). CONCLUSIONS: Pregnant women are overweight/obese, with a mean age of 30.9 years and are socially vulnerable. Pregnant women with chronic hypertension are older and have a higher number of abortions.

Competitive neural layer-based method to identify people with high risk for diabetic foot.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: To automatically identify patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) who have high risk of developing diabetic foot, via an unsupervised machine learning technique. METHODS: We collected a new database containing 54 known risk factors from 250 patients diagnosed with diabetes mellitus. The database also contained a separate validation cohort composed of 73 subjects, where the perceived risk was annotated by expert nurses. A competitive neuron layer-based method was used to automatically split training data into two risk groups. RESULTS: We found that one of the groups was composed of patients with higher risk of developing diabetic foot. The dominant variables that described group membership via our method agreed with the findings from other studies, and indicated a greater risk for developing such a condition. Our method was validated on the available test data, reaching 71% sensitivity, 100% specificity, and 90% accuracy. CONCLUSIONS: Unsupervised learning may be deployed to screen patients with diabetes mellitus, pointing out high-risk individuals who require priority follow-up in the prevention of diabetic foot with very high accuracy. The proposed method is automatic and does not require clinical examinations to perform risk assessment, being solely based on the information of a questionnaire answered by patients. Our study found that discriminant variables for predicting risk group membership are highly correlated with expert opinion.

Mothers mothering in prison: an experience report of the nursing care project.

OBJECTIVES: to report the experience of designing and implementing the nursing care project with mothers and babies in prison. METHODS: this is an experience report about the nursing care project with mothers and children in prison, having as a guiding axis Winnicottian concepts about the mother-baby relationship. RESULTS: nursing consultations were held in childcare, thematic conversation circles and the manufacture of artifacts to encourage child development, as well as women's health care. The positive impact of the project has made it a health education program. FINAL CONSIDERATIONS: elaborating the nursing care project encouraged other ways of providing care and implementing it, using Winnicottian concepts. It is recommended that training institutions consider the prison and the individuals there as a field in the learning process of health professionals.

Locus of control, knowledge, attitude and practice for contraception among adolescents.

OBJECTIVES: to assess the relation of the locus of control with the adolescents' knowledge, attitude and practice (KAP). METHODS: this is a cross-sectional study with 1,192 high school students. Data were collected using the KAP questionnaire and the Levenson locus of control scale and analyzed by descriptive statistics, Mann-Whitney U test and Kruskal-Wallis H test. RESULTS: Women presented higher Externality Powerful Others locus of control than man (p=0.0015) and adolescents over 17, higher Externality Chance locus of control (p=<0.0001). Students who used contraceptive methods at the first contraceptive method had higher Externality Powerful Others (p=0.0107) and those who used coitus interruptus, had higher Externality Chance (p=0.0013). Internality was inversely proportional to the practice in relation to the dimensions of the locus of control. CONCLUSIONS: The dimensions of the locus of control were related to some contraceptive practices, but little or no relation to knowledge and attitude.

RESUMEN Objetivos: Evaluar la relación del locus de control con conocimiento, actitud y práctica (CAP) contraceptiva de adolescentes. Métodos: Se trata de un estudio transversal, realizado con 1.192 estudiantes de enseñanza media. Los datos fueron recolectados a través del cuestionario CAP y de la escala de locus de control de Levenson y analizados por estadística descriptiva, prueba de Mann-Whitney y prueba de Kruskal-Wallis. Resultados: Las mujeres presentaron más Externalidad Otros Poderosos cuando comparadas a los hombres (p=0,0015) y los adolescentes mayores de 17 años, más Externalidad Acaso (p=<0,0001). Los estudiantes que hicieron uso de algún método anticonceptivo en la primera relación sexual presentaron más Externalidad Otros Poderosos (p=0,0107) y aquellos que usaron el coito interrumpido, más Externalidad Acaso (p=0,0013). La Internalidad se mostró inversamente proporcional a la práctica en relación a las dimensiones del locus de control. Conclusiones: Las dimensiones del locus de control presentaron relación con algunas prácticas anticonceptivas, pero poca o ninguna relación con el conocimiento y actitud.
