    ABSTRACT

    Objective:

    Validate the content of an instrument that assesses the quality of a software applied to the risk classification of patients.

    Method:

    Methodological study, conducted in three stages: adaptation of the instrument, content validation through Delphi technique and pre-test. The results were analyzed through Content Validity Index, Overall Content Validity Index and Inter-rater Reliability.

    Results:

    The final version of the instrument comprises 8 characteristics and 28 sub-characteristics, being 37 general questions to computer experts and nurse and 7 specific questions to computer experts, including 1 question and excluding 3 questions of the original instrument. We obtained Overall Content Validity of 92% and Inter-rater Reliability of 100% in the second Delphi round.

    Final considerations:

    The instrument has content validity, allowing to assess the technical quality and functional performance of the software applied to the risk classification of patients.

    Stress of nursing students in clinical simulation: a randomized clinical trial

    ABSTRACT

    Objective:

    To evaluate and compare the perception of stressors by nursing students before and after a high-fidelity clinical simulation or conventional laboratory practice class.

    Method:

    This is a randomized clinical trial conducted with 52 nursing students. Both groups had theoretical classes about cardiothoracic physical examination, followed by practice class in skill laboratory. In addition, the experimental group took part in a high-fidelity simulation scenario. Stressors were evaluated before and after class, with the application of KEZKAK questionnaire.

    Results:

    The experimental group was significantly more worried about six factors related to lack of competence and to interpersonal relationships (p < 0.05), while the control group was significantly more worried about being in contact with suffering (p = 0.0315).

    Conclusion:

    The simulation affects students’ perception of stressors and promotes their self-evaluation and critical thinking regarding the responsibility that comes with their learning.

    ABSTRACT

    Objective:

    To analyze the experiences of family caregivers of dependent older adults, who show performance overload and emotional distress, using the Theory of Culture Care.

    Method:

    Qualitative study with nine caregivers of home care dependent older adults, based on Grounded Theory.

    Results:

    The findings allowed the identification of potentialities and frailties in the context of family home care and subsidizing the construction of a theoretical scheme resulting from the analysis of possibilities of the nursing care practice according to the culture, through the three modes of action: maintenance, adjustment and repatterning of cultural care.

    Final considerations:

    Respecting the cultural values and family beliefs, the nurse can help to institute mutually established changes, promoting a better quality in the nursing care relationship and a relief to the strain of the role of the caregiver.

    Objective:

    To describe the essential elements that make the nursing team communication process effective, and to analyze such elements in the light of two main theorists, Berlo and King.

    Method:

    This is a qualitative study of assistant convergent research approach. The data production technique was the semi-structured interview, with 25 nursing professionals from a public hospital. Data were analyzed with thematic content techniques.

    Results:

    The main element of consolidation of the communication process and interpersonal relationship, with consequent interaction, is the dialogue, which is guided by emotions, feelings, and team integration.

    Conclusion:

    The communication process and the interpersonal relationship reach their objectives and the reciprocal understanding expected when there is effective dialogue, validated by the source and receiver of the processes, with consequent interaction.

    ABSTRACT

    Objective:

    To assess the health/functioning of the older adult who consumes psychoactive substances through the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health, considering the theory of complexity.

    Method:

    Qualitative case study, with 11 older adults, held between December 2015 and February 2016 in the state of Rio Grande do Sul, using interviews, documents and non-systematic observation. It was approved by the ethics committee. The analysis followed the propositions of the case study, using the complexity of Morin as theoretical basis.

    Results:

    We identified older adults who consider themselves healthy and show alterations – the alterations can be exacerbated by the use of psychoactive substances – of health/functioning expected according to the natural course of aging such as: systemic arterial hypertension; depressive symptoms; dizziness; tinnitus; harmed sleep/rest; and inadequate food and water consumption.

    Final consideration:

    The assessment of health/functioning of older adults who use psychoactive substances, guided by complex thinking, exceeds the accuracy limits to risk the understanding of the phenomena in its complexity.
