“…National and international studies that dealt with educational manuals on health care also used the strategy of investigating the needs of the target population to support the construction of the material. 10,[21][22] Similarly to the present study, the focus group technique was used in an international research study that produced a leaflet for preventing falls in aged residents of long-term care facilities. A focus group was held with the target population, in order to know their knowledge needs and expectations.…”

“…A focus group was held with the target population, in order to know their knowledge needs and expectations. 22 In a different way, an international study that developed a leaflet for parents with premature babies held a focus group with specialists on the subject matter in order to discuss the theme, generating support for the material from the clinical practice. 13 In this study, it was decided to carry out a focus group with the target population, since the protocol used as support in the preparation of the manual was validated by a multidisciplinary team.…”

Objective to construct and validate an educational manual for family caregivers of older adult dependent on care after a stroke. Method a methodological study with four stages: focus group with five family caregivers, to identify doubts and difficulties regarding home care for older adults with stroke; preparation of the manual by six researchers; content validation by 18 specialist nurses, and face validation by 12 family caregivers. For data analysis, thematic analysis was performed, the Content Validity Index (CVI) was calculated, and the consensus of the target population was verified. Results from the focus group, the experiences and challenges faced by the caregivers in caring for aged family members with a stroke were identified, which supported the elaboration of an educative manual, in the second stage. In the expert consensus, a global CVI of 0.97 was obtained and, in face validation, a consensus of 95.51% by the target population. Conclusion an educational manual for family caregivers of older adults after a stroke was built, which was validated in terms of content and appearance. In view of this, it can be used as complementary material to the guidelines of the professionals, enabling improvement of the care provided by family members to the older adult dependent on care after a stroke.

“…For that reason, it is recommended that nurses prioritise to create a good healthcare relation with the older people and then adapt the information about fall prevention to each individual's needs and preferences. Another option may be to develop educational materials together with older people and their relatives which seem to be fruitful for addressing fall prevention (Schoberer, Eglseer, Halfens, & Lohrmann, ).…”

“…Results of research have shown that information material which is given to the patient in a written form should be evidence‐ and theory‐based and have been established by quality managers on a national level (Schoberer, Halfens, & Lohrmann, ). Furthermore, the involvement of users in the evaluation of the information material is helpful, making the information easier to understand and supportive (Schoberer, Eglseer, Halfens, & Lohrmann, ). The development of standardized, evidence‐based, and easily understandable, written information could help assist nurses as they provide counseling and information management in the general hospital setting.…”

Background: Dementia is common in older people in general hospitals. To improve the quality of their care, the use of nonpharmacological interventions based on the best evidence from clinical guidelines is recommended. Many international clinical guidelines exist, but their recommendations are often not used because they do not fit the local setting or the country.Aim: The aim of this study was to adapt the international clinical guidelines and their recommendations to the Austrian context regarding nonpharmacological interventions for people with dementia living in the general hospital setting. Methods:The ADAPTE process was chosen as a method for the adaptation. A search for international clinical guidelines was conducted in seven databases within this process. The guidelines which met the inclusion and quality criteria were assessed with the AGREE II instrument by two independent reviewers. The recommendations of the guidelines were extracted. Those that did not fit the Austrian context were excluded, and recommendations with similar statements were summarized. The selected and modified recommendations were translated into German.Results: Out of 206 guidelines, three met the inclusion criteria and two, the quality criteria. One hundred and fifty-two recommendations were extracted from these two guidelines, 42 of which were suitable for the Austrian setting and 20 of which had similar statements and could be summarized. Finally, 32 recommendations were identified that were applicable to the general hospital setting in Austria.Linking Evidence to Action: The adaptation of clinical guidelines with the ADAPTE process generated seven topics with 32 recommendations. Many international guidelines exist, but they cannot be applied verbatim in every country due to the fact that some recommendations are not applicable with respect to the national and local context. Creating an adaption of international guidelines is an effective way to provide and link evidence from research to national nursing practice.
