Elaboration and validation of an ICNP® terminology subset for patients with acute myocardial infarction

Abstract

Objective: To elaborate a terminological subset for the International Classification for Nursing Practice (ICNP®) for patients with acute myocardial infarction using the Activities of Living Model. Method: A methodological study which followed the guidelines of the International Nursing Council and was based on theoretical framework of the Activities of Living Model for its elaboration. Content validation was performed by 22 nursing specialists. Results: Twenty-two (22) diagnoses and 22 nursing outcomes were elaborated. Of these, 17 nursing diagnosis statements and 17 nursing outcome statements presented Content Validity Index (CVI) ≥ 0.80. Of the 113 elaborated nursing interventions, 42 reached a CVI ≥ 0.80, and 51 interventions made up the terminological subset after the expert suggestions. Conclusion: The ICNP® was suitable for use with the Activities of Living Model, having compatible terms with those used in clinical nursing practice, and valid for construction of the terminological subset for patients with acute myocardial infarction and most likely to facilitate clinical nursing judgment.

Construction and validation of an instrument for classifying nipple and areola complex lesions resulting from breastfeeding

“…Current studies on the development of measurement instruments demonstrate that a widely used approach to assess content and/or appearance validity is Content Validity Index (CVI) by item, by dimension or globally, adopting a value minimum to reach agreement, which can range from 0.70 to 0.80 (30)(31)(32)(33)(34)(35)(37)(38)(39)(40)(41)(42)(43)(44) .…”

“…CVI was calculated by adding the items marked as "3" or "4" and divided by the total number of responses. A minimum value of 0.80 was adopted to reach agreement and items that presented indexes below the minimum would be reformulated according to judges' opinion (30)(31)(32)(33)(34)(35)38,(43)(44) .…”

Content Validation of Icnp® Subset Enunciates for People With Vasculogenic Ulcers

“…Ademais, a correlação entre diagnósticos, resultados e intervenções não foi totalmente linear, tendo a validação por especialistas buscado aproximar a realidade clínica testada das situações por eles experimentadas. 23 Tal afirmação é corroborada pelo fato de que os diagnósticos que não obtiveram PC de 100% podem ter resultados e intervenções reconhecidos e validados pelos especialistas em sua totalidade; discute-se que, mesmo com critérios rígidos para seleção de especialistas, as intervenções são mais reconhecidas, em detrimento do diagnóstico.…”

Analysis on the Effect of the Rehabilitation Intervention-Centered Targeted Nursing Model on the Cardiac Function Recovery and Negative Emotions in Patients with Acute Myocardial Infarction

“…The majority of AMI patients usually presents with myocardial ischemia and hypoxia, declined cardiac function, and impaired respiratory system, further leading to their weakened mobility; therefore, rehabilitation intervention which refers to the functional training by caregivers with the aid of specialized nursing techniques and the progressive promotion of patients' training initiative, with the purpose of improving mobility and quality of life, is of great significance [ 1 – 3 ]. However, current studies on the rehabilitation intervention for AMI patients in clinical practice have revealed that, due to the twin stressors of physical and psychological conditions, patients have low compliance with rehabilitation training; besides, the routine nursing model is less targeted and cannot relieve patients' negative emotions, so it has relatively limited effect on facilitating rehabilitation [ 4 – 7 ].…”
