Methods: A prospective longitudinal study with adults hospitalized at an intensive care center, from a highly complex public hospital in southern Brazil. The data collection was conducted using the Epimed Monitor®. In the fi rst period of the study (Period 1), the mean NAS score was obtained using three daily evaluations, and … Show more

“…This scenario gets worse when our results indicate that 25% of the evaluations are above 59.00 points (quartile 3), highlighting greater nursing workload. Batassini et al (2019) showed that less than 10% of NAS measurements have a score below 50 points. The random allocation of two patients to a professional based on previous day can also offer risks to nursing care since in 66.01% of the simulated cases, the NAS of these two patients is greater than 100 points.…”

“…(4,12,13) Também, foram avaliados os percentuais de concordância entre avaliadores considerando cada uma das categorias do NAS. Embora não exista na literatura uma classificação padronizada de consenso para a carga de trabalho (leve, moderada ou pesada) oriunda do NAS, para fins do presente estudo, partindo do raciocínio do quantitativo de pacientes que pode ser cuidado por um profissional, optou--se por utilizar três categorias, embasadas na classificação adotada anteriormente em outro estudo, (14) conforme a faixa do NAS: (1) NAS ≤50%: carga de trabalho leve (um profissional para cada dois pacientes); (2) NAS entre 50,1-99,9%: carga de trabalho moderada/elevada (um profissional para cada paciente e (3) NAS ≥100%: muito elevada (dois profissionais para cada paciente).…”
