ABSTRACT Introduction: Critically-ill patients, admitted to an intensive care unit, are exposed to risks. Therefore, understanding the relationships between the elements involving their safety and protection becomes fundamental. Objective: To verify the association between the nursing diagnoses within the domain safety and protection of NANDA (North American Nursing Diagnosis Association) International with its components in critically-ill patients hospitalized in an intensive care unit. Methods: Cross-sectional study carried out through a form conducted on 86 critically-ill patients of a hospital in the northeast of Brazil. The chi-square and Fisher's exact tests were applied in the statistical analysis. Results: The diagnosis of the risk of adverse response to the contrast medium with iodine presented statistical association with the components: physical and chemical properties of the contrast media, anxiety, concomitant use of medications, fragile veins, underlying disease, and age extremes. The diagnosis of the risk of imbalance in body temperature was associated with the altered metabolic rate, age extremes, and sedation. Conclusion: These findings provide scientific advances for nursing by providing help in diagnostic inference, in the anticipation of care, and in the decision-making by the nursing staff(AU)

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the predictive power of risk factors for pressure ulcers in adult intensive care patients. METHOD: A retrospective case-control study was performed utilising a heterogeneous sample group allocated into a case group with pressure ulcers (n=90) and a control group without pressure ulcers (n=90). The analysis explored the predictive power of risk factors for pressure ulcers using a hierarchical logistic regression model. RESULTS: The risk factors that predicted pressure ulcers were friction (OR=5.97), previous history of pressure ulcers (OR=5.43), prolonged intensive care unit stay (OR=3.92), dehydration (OR=3.18), elevated skin temperature by 1-2°C (OR=3.12) and treatment of other comorbidities (OR=2.79). CONCLUSION: Adult intensive care patients have an increased risk of developing a pressure ulcer. These risk factors are regarded as strong predictors for pressure ulceration. This study advances nursing knowledge in that it investigates additional risk factors for the development of pressure ulcers and it identifies a set of factors that best predict their occurrence, which may contribute to the nurses' diagnostic reasoning in the intensive care unit.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Pressure ulcers increase hospital stays and treatment costs due to their complications. Therefore, recognizing factors that contribute to pressure ulcer risk are important to patient safety. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the association between the scores of the Waterlow, Braden, and Norton scales and clinical and social characteristics in critically ill patients. METHOD: A cross-sectional study of 78 patients in an adult intensive care unit of a university hospital in Northeastern Brazil was conducted from July to December 2015. Data included social and clinical information and the risk factors of the Braden, Norton and Waterlow scales. Data were analysed by the descriptive and inferential statistics. RESULTS: Most of the participants were female, adults and elderly people with brown skin colour, low education levels and insufficient income. Most of them showed a high risk for developing pressure ulcers using the three evaluated scales. Age, smoking status, diabetes and hypertension were associated with scores on the Waterlow, Braden and Norton scales. CONCLUSION: Age, use of the tobacco, diabetes and hypertension were associated with the risk of pressure ulcers in ICU patients.

RESUMO Introdução: a hemodiálise contribui para a eliminação de substâncias indesejáveis ao organismo, de modo a diminuir os efeitos do comprometimento da disfunção renal, mas algumas repercussões em diferentes áreas do corpo são percebidas, como as psicológicas e cognitivas. Objetivo: identificar a associação entre as características psicológicas e cognitivas do paciente em hemodiálise com seus dados clínicos e socioeconômicos. Métodos: pesquisa transversal, realizada com 100 pacientes em hemodiálise internados em um hospital universitário e atendidos em uma clínica de hemodiálise do Nordeste do Brasil. Os dados foram coletados, no período de dezembro de 2012 a abril de 2013, a partir de um formulário contendo dados socioeconômicos, clínicos, Mini Exame do Estado Mental, escala de ansiedade e critérios para a medição da agitação. Estudo aprovado pelo comitê de ética com protocolo 148.428 e Certificado de Apresentação para Apreciação Ética 08696212.7.0000.5537. Resultados: a maioria sexo feminino (52 porcento), idade média de 51,1 anos (±16,5), medianas de 6,5 anos de estudo e renda de dois salários mínimos. Dados laboratoriais: Ureia e creatinina alteradas em 100 porcento dos pacientes, potássio alterado em 73 porcento, hemoglobina (72 porcento) e hematócrito (95 porcento) diminuídos. Dados clínicos: 81 porcento hipertensos e 30 porcento diabéticos. Maioria dos pacientes ansiosa e agitada. Houve associação estatisticamente significativa entre: ansiedade e idade (p=0,030) e ansiedade e renda familiar (p=0,048). Conclusões: identificaram-se associações entre ansiedade e duas variáveis socioecômicas, idade e renda familiar, não sendo evidenciadas associações com as variáveis clínicas(AU)

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: To identify similarities between NANDA International nursing diagnoses and Roy's adaptation model among chronic renal patients undergoing hemodialysis. METHODOLOGY: Cross-sectional and descriptive study with 178 individuals selected, through consecutive convenience sampling, in a dialysis center located in the Northeast of Brazil. The study was conducted between October 2011 and February 2012. Data collection instruments included an interview form and a physical assessment. RESULTS: Similarity was found between 20 nursing diagnoses and 22 adaptation problems. Roy's adaptation modes that presented these relationships were: physiological, self-conception and role function. CONCLUSION: There are similarities between the two typologies. Furthermore, the use of the nursing process from the perspective of a theory inherent to the field supports care delivery and strengthens scientific knowledge in the profession.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: To explore the relationship between the risk factors for the development of venous ulcers and the indicators of tissue integrity from the Nursing Outcomes Classification. METHODOLOGY: A cross-sectional study conducted in 2013 in a university hospital in Natal/RN (Brazil). Fifty individuals selected by consecutive sampling participated in an interview and physical examination. RESULTS: The most important risk factors were: 44% presented with arterial hypertension, 26% allergy, 20% diabetes mellitus, 4% participated in some physical activity, 6% were smokers and 14% drank alcohol. There was a statistically significant association between diabetes mellitus and the texture of the lesion (p=0.015) and tissue perfusion (p=0.026); allergy and texture (p=0.034); physical activity and hydration (p = 0.034); smoking and thickness (p = 0.018); and alcoholism and exudate of the ulcer (p=0.045). CONCLUSION: . The relationship between risk factors and the nursing outcome indicators generated information relevant to the development of guidelines for the monitoring and treatment of venous ulcer information.
