Sign language instrument for assessing the knowledge of deaf people about Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation

Abstract

<jats:p> Objective: to build and validate the content on Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) of a sign language instrument for assessing the knowledge of the deaf. Method: methodological study in which the content validity process was used by 22 specialists in cardiac arrest and 16 deaf people. In the validation of internal consistency, 113 deaf people participated. For the assessment of the deaf, the Assistive Technology Assessment Questionnaire was used and, in the content validity, an instrument with a Likert scale was used, which included the content, clarity, objectivity, organization and language. Items with a minimum agreement of 80% were considered valid, according to the Content Validity Index (CVI) and binomial test. The internal consistency was verified by Cronbach’s alpha. Results: The instrument contains 11 questions about the identification of cardiorespiratory arrest, activation by aid and high quality chest compression. It had a minimum content validity of 81% by the specialists, 90% by the deaf participants and internal consistency by the Cronbach alpha of 0.86, being considered high. Conclusion: the instrument can be used in research to survey the previous knowledge of deaf people about CPR, as well as in pre and/or post-testing studies that test educational interventions with this public.</jats:p>

Obstetric cardiopulmonary arrest: construction and validation of an instrument to assess nursing knowledge

“…The professionals were contacted by e-mail in which there was a link to access the Google Form, which contained an invitation letter, Free and Informed Consent Form (FICF), an instrument for characterization, which contemplated the professional's specialty, his title and experience in teaching and care, and the instrument in the validation process and the instrument for data collection. The data collection instrument used, in which the professionals recorded their evaluation, was adapted from a previous study and included aspects related to content, language and layout, presented in 14 questions, in which the evaluators could fill in their levels of agreement in a Likert-type scale (8) .…”

Efetividade de vídeo educativo no conhecimento de leigos em sala de espera sobre a reanimação cardiopulmonar.

“…Para coleta de dados, foi utilizado instrumento estruturado dividido em duas partes: a primeira continha a caracterização do participante (sexo, idade, situação conjugal, renda familiar, escolaridade, ocupação, procedência). A segunda foi representada pelo teste de conhecimento validado 11 , composto por 11 questões de múltipla escolha, cada uma com cinco opções de resposta, das quais apenas uma era correta. Com enunciado conciso, cada questão solicitava que a alternativa correta fosse assinalada, acerca da competência/informação para agir durante a RCP.…”

“…Este questionário elenca o reconhecimento da PCR, o perigo da parada cardíaca, qual a primeira ação a ser realizada, o número do serviço de emergência, quando iniciar as compressões torácicas, correto posicionamento da pessoa em PCR, local e posição para a compressão do tórax, a força que deve ser aplicada, quando trocar com outra pessoa para realizar compressão e o momento em que se de parar. O conteúdo foi validado a partir de método científico, mediante avaliação de 22 profissionais experientes em PCR e utilização do Índice de Validação de Conteúdo (IVC) e Teste Binomial 11 .…”

“…Dessa forma, estratégias de educação em saúde mediadas por tecnologias favorecem a apreensão de conhecimentos de leigos em relação à RCP 10 . Dentre as tecnologias educacionais disponíveis na literatura sobre a temática, existem filmes e vídeos educativos, como o: "Parada cardiorrespiratória: como agir para salvar", que foi construído e validado em estudo anterior e contém informações sobre as etapas que devem ser realizadas pelo leigo para prestar o socorro correto à vítima de PCR 11,12 .…”

Information about COVID-19 for deaf people: an analysis of Youtube videos in Brazilian sign language

“…Thus, there is a communication barrier for the access of deaf people to the opportunity for information and knowledge building in health (8) . Faced with hearing loss from 40dB (9) , the deaf population is inserted in a different cultural context, as its form of communication is based on movements, signs and visual stimuli (10)(11) . In Brazil, deaf people communicate using the Brazilian Sign Language (BSL) (12) .…”
