Nursing Training for Early Clinical Deterioration Risk Assessment: Protocol for an Implementation Study.

BACKGROUND: During the hospitalization period, it is possible to observe considerable changes in the vital parameters of patients, which may require emergency interventions or intensive treatment. The alteration of signs and symptoms that lead to physiological instability that can worsen the clinical picture with progression to shock, respiratory failure, or cardiorespiratory arrest is currently defined as clinical deterioration. Identifying signs of clinical deterioration at an early stage can lead to substantial decreases in mortality rates, the need for emergency interventions, and unscheduled treatments in intensive care units. Identifying and appropriately referring patients who show signs of clinical deterioration can be facilitated by applying early warning systems that provide rapid responses. The nursing team is usually the first to identify clinical changes in patients. Although the literature demonstrates that early recognition of clinical deterioration is the key to early intervention and leads to better outcomes, we only sometimes pursue the most appropriate intervention. OBJECTIVE: This study aims to implement and evaluate an evidence-based professional training program designed for nurses and coordinated by a nurse using the "just-in-time" methodology and the National Early Warning Score 2 (NEWS2) to assess the risk of early clinical deterioration and appropriate referral in inpatient units of a public university hospital in southeastern Brazil. METHODS: This intervention protocol is structured according to the recommendations of the SPIRIT (Standard Protocol Items: Recommendations for Interventional Trials) Declaration 2013. The type of training to be offered, "Just-in-Time Training," consists of a teaching modality that facilitates the delivery of a time-based and work-based education, with greater emphasis on providing on-the-job learning as needed. A qualitative stage will also be conducted through focus groups and interviews with nurses to verify the factors that influence the professional practice related to the early evaluation of the clinic. A script of previously tested questions will guide and standardize the different groups. The data will define the intervention's elements: the strategy, the type of training, the location, the teaching methodology, and the teaching material. RESULTS: The study has received authorization from the ethics committee, and participants will be recruited in July 2023. Data collection should be completed in October of the same year. The results obtained at the end of this research will be shared with the participating nursing team through the presentation of reports. In addition, the research results will be submitted to scientific journals and presented at international scientific conferences. CONCLUSIONS: This study will support nurses and possibly other clinicians to improve their approach to early recognition of clinical deterioration in patients.

Methods to assess ambivalence towards food and diet: a scoping review.

BACKGROUND: Ambivalence towards food and diet, which favours behavioural inertia, might be a barrier to adopting healthier eating behaviours. Measuring it can help researchers to better understand its relationship with behaviour change and design interventions aimed at resolving it. In this scoping review, we map and describe methods and tools employed in studies to assess, measure or classify the ambivalence of participants towards food- and diet-related attitude objects. METHODS: In accordance with Joanna Briggs Institute guidance for conducting scoping reviews, we retrieved peer-reviewed studies from MEDLINE, CINAHL, PsycINFO, Web of Science, FSTA and Food Science Source and preprints from PsyArXiv and MedRxiv. Two independent reviewers screened the articles. We considered for inclusion peer-reviewed studies and preprints that assessed the ambivalence of participants of any age, sex or sociodemographic group towards food and diet. RESULTS: We included 45 studies published between 1992 and 2022, which included participants from 17 countries. Eighteen methods were employed across the included studies to assess different types of ambivalence (felt, potential or cognitive-affective), the most frequent of which were the Griffin Index, the Subjective Ambivalence Questionnaire, the MouseTracker Paradigm and the Orientation to Chocolate Questionnaire. CONCLUSION: This scoping review identified several methods and tools to assess different types of ambivalence towards food- and diet-related objects, providing an array of options for future studies.

Development of a website for wound assessment.

INTRODUCTION: The assessment and treatment of wounds are nurses' and their teams' responsibilities, as it is up to the nurses to outline a therapeutic plan for tissue repair. For the evaluation process, the nurse must be scientifically trained and use reliable instruments. OBJECTIVE: Website development for wound assessment. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This is a methodological study that developed a website to evaluate wounds based on an assessment questionnaire called Expected Results of the Evaluation of Chronic Wound Healing (RESVECH 2.0), which consists of an adapted and validated instrument. RESULTS: The website construction followed the basic flowchart of elaboration. To use it, the professionals create their login and subsequently register their patients. Then, they answer six questionnaires that form the evaluation process according to RESVECH 2.0. The website allows nurses to monitor the patient's evolution through graphs and previous assessments that are filed in a database. For the evaluation process, the professional needs to have a technological internet-accessed device, such as a tablet or cell phone, in order to make wound care assistance more practical and efficient. CONCLUSION: the findings demonstrate the importance of adding technology to assistance in the treatment of wounds and may provide more qualified service and more resolutive treatment.

Sociodemographic, clinical, and dietary characteristics of overweight adults: a secondary analysis of a population study / Caracterização sociodemográfica, clínica e da alimentação de adultos com excesso de peso: análise secundária de um estudo populacional

ABSTRACT Objective: To estimate the prevalence of overweight among Brazilian adults aged 20 to 59, according to sociodemographic characteristics, health-related behaviors, and food consumption. Methods: A cross-sectional study based on data from a population-based survey in a major metropolitan city in the state of São Paulo, Brazil, conducted between 2015-2016. Prevalences and prevalence ratios were estimated using Poisson regression; food consumption means were estimated using linear regression. Results: We analyzed data from 855 adults, 61% of whom were overweight. The prevalence of overweight was significantly higher among males, those aged 30 or older, with 8 to 11 years of education, and those who reported eating more than they should. The body mass index was significantly associated with hypertension, diabetes, high cholesterol, waist-to-height ratio, taking weight-loss medications, overeating, and the habit of checking labels. Overweight adults reported eating meat with visible fat and drinking soda more frequently than those not overweight. Overweight adults reported eating significantly more grams of food daily and had a higher intake of energy, total fat, saturated fats, trans fats, carbohydrates, protein, insoluble dietary fiber, sodium, and potassium. Their diets had a higher glycemic load when compared to participants who were not overweight. Conclusion: Adults with and without overweight differed in their sociodemographic, dietary, and clinical characteristics. Diet quality was similar between both groups, suggesting a need for improving dietary habits in this population regardless of body weight.

RESUMO Objetivo: Estimar a prevalência de excesso de peso entre adultos brasileiros, de 20 a 59 anos, segundo características sociodemográficas, de comportamentos relacionados à saúde e quanto ao consumo alimentar. Métodos: Estudo transversal, de pesquisa de base populacional, em uma cidade metropolitana de São Paulo - Brasil, conduzida entre os anos de 2015 e 2016. Foram estimadas as prevalências e as razões de prevalência por meio da regressão de Poisson, e as médias de consumo alimentar pelo uso da regressão linear. Resultados: Foram analisados dados referentes à 855 adultos, 61% destes apresentavam sobrepeso. A prevalência de excesso de peso foi significativamente maior entre: homens, com 30 anos ou mais, pessoas que possuíam entre 8 e 11 anos de estudo e entre aqueles que acreditavam comer mais do que deveriam. O índice de massa corporal foi significativamente associado à hipertensão, diabetes, colesterol alto, razão cintura-estatura, uso de medicamentos, comer mais do que deveria e o hábito de checar rótulos. Adultos com excesso de peso ingeriam carnes com gordura e refrigerantes em maior frequência quando comparados à adultos com peso saudável. Adultos com excesso de peso consumiam, significativamente, mais gramas de alimentos por dia e apresentaram maior ingestão de calorias, gorduras totais, saturadas e trans, carboidratos, proteína, fibras insolúveis, sódio e potássio. A dieta deles continha uma maior carga glicêmica quando comparada àqueles com peso saudável. Conclusão: Adultos com e sem excesso de peso, diferiram quanto às características sociodemográficas, dietéticas e clínicas. A qualidade da dieta foi similar em ambos os grupos, o que sugere a necessidade de melhora dos hábitos alimentares da população, independentemente do peso corporal.

Autocuidado e risco cardiometabólico em pessoas com hipertensão arterial em seguimento na atenção primária / Self-care and cardiometabolic risk in people with high arterial pressure following primary care

O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar o autocuidado e o risco cardiometabólico em pessoas com hipertensão arterial (HA) em seguimento clínico regular na atenção primária à saúde. Estudo analítico e transversal conduzido entre 86 pessoas com HA no interior do Estado de São Paulo, por meio da aplicação das versões brasileiras da Escala de Autocuidado de Hipertensão e do Escore de Risco Cardiometabólico de Framingham. Os participantes demonstraram níveis satisfatórios de confiança (71,3(14,7)), níveis insatisfatórios para manutenção (59,2(14,5)) e manejo (55,1(20,3)) do autocuidado na Escala de Autocuidado e 34,6% de chance de desenvolver infarto agudo do miocárdio nos próximos dez anos. Os indivíduos com menor idade apresentaram níveis de confiança satisfatórios em relação ao manejo do autocuidado, e observou-se maior risco cardiometabólico entre pessoas com diabetes e angina. Os indivíduos possuem confiança, mas demonstram inadequados manejo e manutenção do comportamento de autocuidado, e quanto menor a idade, melhor o manejo do autocuidado.

This study aimed evaluate self-care and cardiometabolic risk in people with arterial hypertension undergoing regular clinical follow-up in primary health care. Exploratory study conducted among people with hypertension in the interior of the State of São Paulo, through the application of the Brazilian versions of the Hypertension Self-Care Scale and the Framingham Cardiometabolic Risk Score. Participants demonstrated satisfactory levels of confidence (71.3 (14.7)) and unsatisfactory levels for Self-Care maintenance (59.2 (14.5)) and management (55.1 (20.3)), domains of the Scale Self-care; and a 34.6% chance of developing acute myocardial infarction in the next 10 years. The youngest individuals had satisfactory levels of confidence in relation to the management of self-care; and higher cardiometabolic risk was observed among people with diabetes and angina. No significant associations were found between the other variables. Individuals have confidence, but demonstrate inadequate Self-Care management and maintenance and the younger the better self-care management.

Musculoskeletal symptoms and work ability in a context of electronic judicial process.

INTRODUCTION: The recent transformations undergone by Brazilian labor court, especially with the introduction of electronic process of law (processo judicial eletrônico [PJe]), had a significant influence on how people work. OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to evaluate the occurrence of musculoskeletal symptoms and work ability in public sector employees working in a specialized labor court body. METHODS: A cross-sectional study was conducted with 449 workers, who provided demographic and occupational information and completed the Nordic Musculoskeletal Questionnaire (NMQ) and the Work Ability Index (WAI). RESULTS: Symptoms occurred more frequently in wrists/hands (62.4%), shoulders (62.1%), and neck (60.4%) in the past 12 months, and in the neck (29.8%), shoulders (29.4%), and wrists/hands (29.2%) in the past 7 days. The mean WAI score was 38.7 (6.4), and 31.4% of participants had poor or moderate work ability. WAI scores were poorer when participants had previous problems, and the number of body segments involved in complaints was greater among those with inadequate work ability. CONCLUSIONS: Higher frequency of musculoskeletal symptoms in wrists/hands, shoulders, and neck may be related to using PJe for work and is associated with poorer work ability scores, highlighting the importance of preventive interventions for work-related musculoskeletal disorders.

Effect of implementation intention on walking in people with diabetes: an experimental approach.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effect of implementation intentions as an intervention strategy to promote walking in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). METHODS: We conducted a controlled and randomized trial, with 12 months of follow-up, involving 65 people with T2DM recruited from primary health care units and allocated them in the control group (CG, n = 32) and intervention group (IG, n = 33). The IG received the implementation intention strategy to promote walking and the CG remained in follow-up for conventional treatment in primary health care. The researchers were blinded by anthropometric measurements and the filling of the instruments. RESULTS: After twelve months of follow up, the IG presented a statistically significant increase in the leisure time physical activity when compared with the CG (p = 0.0413) and showed a significant decrease in waist circumference (p = 0.0061). No significant difference was observed regarding body mass index and glycated hemoglobin among groups. CONCLUSIONS: Implementation intention was effective in promoting walking and improving clinical indicators in adults with T2DM.

What methods have been used to estimate salt intake? A systematic review.

The relationship between salt intake and cardiovascular diseases is a contemporary scientific controversy, which has been attributed to the limits of the measures of salt intake used in the studies. Thus, this article sought to systematically review the literature on the methods used to estimate salt intake in different study designs. Of the 124 articles, 60.5% used only biochemical measures, 26.6% only self-report measures and 12.9% reported the combined use of both methods. The 24-hour urinary sodium excretion was the predominant biochemical method (79.1%) and the Food Frequency Questionnaire was the predominant self-report measure (36.4%). Interventional studies used mostly 24-hour urinary sodium excretion; while longitudinal studies used self-report measures. The question guiding the study and its design, as well as constraints related to costs, sample size and feasibility seems to influence the choice of the type of measurement.

Dietary sources of salt intake in adults and older people: a population-based study in a Brazilian town.

OBJECTIVE: To assess salt intake and its dietary sources using biochemical and self-report methods and to characterize salt intake according to sociodemographic and disease-related variables in a sample of the Brazilian population. DESIGN: Population-based cross-sectional survey. SETTING: Salt intake was assessed by biochemical (24 h urinary Na excretion) and self-report methods (sodium FFQ, 24 h dietary recall, seasoned-salt questionnaire, discretionary-salt questionnaire and total reported salt intake).ParticipantsAdults and older people (n 517) aged 20-80 years, living in Artur Nogueira, São Paulo, Brazil. RESULTS: Mean salt intake based on 24 h urinary Na excretion and total reported salt intake was 10·5 and 11·0 g/d, respectively; both measures were significantly correlated. Discretionary salt and seasoned salt were the most important sources of salt intake (68·2 %). Men in the study consumed more salt than women as estimated by 24 h urinary Na excretion (11·7 v. 9·6 g salt/d; P<0·0001). Participants known to be hypertensive added more salt to their meals but consumed less salty ultra-processed foods. Waist circumference in both sexes and BMI were positively correlated with salt intake estimated by 24 h urinary Na excretion. In addition, regression analysis revealed that being a young male or having a high waist circumference was a predictor of higher salt intake. CONCLUSIONS: Salt intake in this population was well above the recommended amount. The main source of salt intake came from salt added during cooking. Salt intake varied according to sex and waist circumference.

Abstract Introduction: cardiovascular diseases represent a major morbidity and mortality impact on the Brazilian society. Objective: to verify the Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) patients' time to return to work; and to identify and correlate sociodemographic, clinical, psychosocial, and occupational variables that may influence that time and their work performance. Methods: cross-sectional correlational study conducted in 2015-2016 with 65 ACS patients who returned to work. The instruments used were: Sociodemographic Questionnaire; Work Performance Evaluation Questionnaire; Veterans Specific Activity Questionnaire; MacNew Heart Disease Health-related Quality of Life; Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale; and Impact of Valvular Disease in Everyday Life. Mann-Whitney test, Dunn's posttest, and Spearman's correlation coefficient were applied. Results: participants took 7.3 months on average to return to work; the ones who performed manual labor took longer to do so. Professional performance was found to be strongly correlated with quality of life and, inversely, with anxiety and depression. Conclusion: data indicate the need to develop strategies to promote ACS patients' return to work.

Impact of implementation intentions on physical activity practice in adults: A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized clinical trials.

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to verify the efficacy of using theory-based strategies on implementation intentions in promoting physical activity (PA) among adults. METHODS: This review was conducted in accordance with the PRISMA recommendations. The search was carried out in seven electronic databases (LILACS, PubMed, SciELO, Cochrane, Web of Science) and two searches of the "grey literature" were performed (Openthesis and OpenGrey). Randomized clinical trials (RCT), published up to September 2016, were considered eligible for this study. Two reviewers independently and systematically evaluated the eligibility criteria, and performed data extraction. A meta-analysis was performed for the purpose of comparing the effect between the intervention and control groups. The effect sizes were grouped in two subgroups with the purpose of more accurately verifying the effect caused by reinforcing the implementation intentions strategy, and using the inverse variance statistical method with random effects models to estimate the main effect of the implementation intention strategy on the PA behavior. Heterogeneity among the studies was evaluated by using I-square statistics, and the Jadad scale to evaluate the quality of included papers. RESULTS: The search resulted in 12,147 records, of which 13 RCTs were considered eligible for this review. Sample age ranged from 18 to 76 years, and participants had conditions such as medullary lesion, coronary disease, obesity, diabetes mellitus, sedentarism or occupational stress. When the summary of the effect was analyzed in the meta-analysis, the result found in the subgroup with reinforcement of the implementation intentions strategy was 0.25 (IC 95% = 0.05-0.45) in favor of the intervention group. This demonstrated that application of the implementation intentions strategy was capable of increasing PA practice in the participants of these studies, in comparison with others that did not use this reinforcement. CONCLUSION: The findings of this review indicated that application of the theory of implementation intentions promoted PA behavior among the adults who received reinforcement of this strategy. The systematic review protocol was registered in the PROSPERO database under the number CRD42018090482.

Association between self-efficacy and sociodemographic and clinical variables in patients with Diabetes Mellitus / Associação entre autoeficácia e variáveis sociodemográficas e clínicas em pacientes com Diabetes Mellitus

Model of study: A cross-sectional study was conducted. Objective: to evaluate the association between self-efficacy and socio-demographic and clinical variables in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Method: The sample was composed by 111 patients with T2DM in use of insulin, in primary health care units and outpatient setting in the southeast region of São Paulo state, Brazil. Sociodemographic data were gathered using validated questionnaire and clinical data were obtained from medical and health records. Self-efficacy was assessed by the Brazilian version of Insulin Management Diabetes Self-Efficacy Scale (IMDSES). The data were submitted to descriptive and comparative analyses using Mann-Whitney and Kruskal-Wallis to verify association between socio-demographic/clinical variables and self-efficacy. Results: Self-efficacy was associated with schooling level and presence of comorbidities, such as coronary artery disease, dyslipidemia, obesity, peripheral arterial disease and peripheral neuropathy. Conclusion: The findings provide support to the design some specifics interventions aimed at improving the selfefficacy of patients with T2DM on insulin use. (AU)

Modelo do estudo: Foi conduzido um estudo transversal. Objetivo: verificar a associação entre autoeficácia e variáveis sociodemográficas e clínicas em pacientes com diabetes mellitus. Métodos: A amostra foi composta por 111 pacientes com diabetes mellitus tipo 2 em uso de insulina em unidade básica de saúde e em ambulatório de hospital universitário da região sudeste do Estado de São Paulo, Brasil. Os dados sociodemográficos foram coletados usando questionário validado e os dados clínicos foram obtidos dos prontuários do hospital e da unidade básica de saúde.

Resultados: A autoeficácia foi associada à escolaridade, presença de comorbidades e complicações do DM, como doença arterial coronária, obesidade, doença arterial periférica e neuropatia periférica. Conclusão: Os achados subsidiam o delineamento de intervenções para otimizar a autoeficácia em pacientes com diabetes mellitus em uso de insulina. (AU)

Psychometric performance of the Brazilian version the "Insulin Management Diabetes Self-Efficacy Scale" for patient with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus / Propriedades psicométricas da versão brasileira "Escala de auto-eficácia no manejo da insulina" em pacientes com diabetes mellitus tipo 2

Model of study: Validation study. Objective: To evaluate the psychometric performance of the Brazilian version of the Insulin Management Diabetes Self-Efficacy Scale - IMDSES. Methodology: Reliability (internal consistency - Cronbach's α), convergent and criterion validity were assessed. Data were gathered from 127 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in use of insulin through the application of sociodemographic and clinical instruments and the Brazilian versions of the Summary of Diabetes Self-Care Activities Measures - SDSCA and the IMDSES. Results: It was observed "ceiling effect" in Insulin domain. Reliability was confirmed in all IMDSES domains and Total Score (α=0.87). The convergent construct validity was supported by significant negative moderate to weak magnitude correlations between the scores of IMDSES domains and the scores of SDSCA domains. Criterion validity was partially supported by the weak magnitude correlation between the General Managements domain and the Total Score of IMDSES and serum levels of glycated hemoglobin (r=0.22; p=0.02). Conclusion: The Brazilian version of IMDSES presented satisfactory psychometric measures and may be useful to evaluate the effectiveness of nursing interventions aimed at optimizing the selfefficacy of the T2DM patient in the management of his treatment.

Modelo de estudo: estudo de validação. Objetivo: Avaliar o desempenho psicométrico da versão brasileira "Escala de Auto-eficácia no manejo da insulina" - IMDSES. Metodologia: A confiabilidade (consistência interna - α Cronbach), a validade convergente e a validade de critério foram avaliadas. Os dados foram coletados de 127 pacientes com diabetes mellitus tipo 2 (DM2) em uso de insulina por meio da aplicação de instrumentos sociodemográficos e clínicos e as versões brasileiras "Summary of Diabetes Self-Care Activities Measures" - SDSCA and the IMDSES. Resultados: Observou-se "efeito de teto" no domínio da insulina. A confiabilidade foi confirmada em todos os domínios do IMDSES obtendo pontuação total satisfatória (α=0,87). A validade convergente de constructo foi confirmada por correlações negativas significativas de magnitude moderada a fraca entre os escores dos domínios do IMDSES e os escores de domínio da SDSCA. A validade de critério foi parcialmente confimada por correlação de magnitude fraca entre o domínio de Gerenciamento Geral e o escore total do IMDSES e níveis de hemoglobina glicada (r=0.22; p=0.02). Conclusão: A versão brasileira do IMDSES apresentou medidas psicométricas satisfatórias e pode ser útil para avaliar a efetividade das intervenções de enfermagem que visam otimizar a autoeficácia do paciente com DM2 no manejo do tratamento.

Satisfaction with medication in coronary disease treatment: psychometrics of the Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire for Medication.

OBJECTIVE: to psychometrically test the Brazilian version of the Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire for Medication - TSQM (version 1.4), regarding ceiling and floor effect, practicability, acceptability, reliability and validity. METHODS: participants with coronary heart disease (n=190) were recruited from an outpatient cardiology clinic at a university hospital in Southeastern Brazil and interviewed to evaluate their satisfaction with medication using the TSQM (version 1.4) and adherence using the Morisky Self-Reported Measure of Medication Adherence Scale and proportion of adherence. The Ceiling and Floor effect were analyzed considering the 15% worst and best possible TSQM scores; Practicability was assessed by time spent during TSQM interviews; Acceptability by proportion of unanswered items and participants who answered all items; Reliability through the Cronbach's alpha coefficient and Validity through the convergent construct validity between the TSQM and the adherence measures. RESULTS: TSQM was easily applied. Ceiling effect was found in the side effects domain and floor effect in the side effects and global satisfaction domains. Evidence of reliability was close to satisfied in all domains. The convergent construct validity was partially supported. CONCLUSIONS: the Brazilian TSQM presents evidence of acceptability and practicability, although its validity was weakly supported and adequate internal consistency was observed for one domain.
