Validação de protocolo para pessoas com úlcera venosa: composição e critérios de avaliação

Abstract

Aims: to confirm and refine the multidisciplinary care protocolstructure for people with venous ulcers treated in primary care. Method: a methodological, quantitative study, carried out in three steps: development of the instrument from the literature review; and validation of the content, through the Delphi technique in two stages: one with 51 judges and one with 35. The analysis used the K appa index ≥0,81 and C ontent V alidity I ndex (C V I )> 0.80, and the W ilcoxon test for comparison between the two validation steps. Results: it was found that, from the 15 categories of the protocol, 12 had better scores in phase Delphi 2. For the assessment requirements of the protocol, it was found that the points awarded by the judges in the second phase were higher in nine of the 10 items, confirming the validity of the instrument. Conclusion: the elaborate and validated version by a professional consists of an approach script for patients with venous ulcer in primary care

Construction and validation of a distance Basic Life Support Course

“…This was calculated using free and online software, the Online Kappa Calculator (8) , taking into account the "adequate with changes" indications for them. As acceptance criterion, concordance was higher than 0.65 among the judges, being considered good (9)(10) .…”

“…We also used the Content Validity Index (CVI), which measures the judges' agreement on the representativeness of the items in relation to the content under study. As acceptable, we considered indexes higher than 0.80 both for each unit assessment and overall course assessment (9)(10) .…”

Validação de protocolo para assistência ao paciente com hipertensão pulmonar

“…The same process was used in a doctoral thesis to develop a protocol for care of people with venous ulcers in primary care. The article found that the Delphi technique was advantageous for being flexible and valuing the opinion and knowledge of the participating experts, allowing reflection on the behavior of professionals and the standardization of protocol to meet the needs of persons with venous ulcers (Costa, 2013).…”

“…It is understood that the validation of protocols and instruments with the Delphi technique is positive and can be used in order to consensually bring together actions that must be standardized in care, improving the quality of care for both professional practice and patients (Costa, 2013). The need for the development and validation of a care protocol for patients with PH is pointed out through the evaluation by specialists of items that are believed to be relevant.…”
