RESUMO

Antineoplastic chemotherapy patients are susceptible to vascular trauma. The identification of this problem is possible through accurate clinical indicators. However, there are few diagnostic accuracy studies of vascular trauma in these patients. Thus, the objective was to analyze the accuracy of clinical indicators of vascular trauma in antineoplastic chemotherapy patients. A diagnostic accuracy study was carried out with a sample of 200 patients undergoing antineoplastic chemotherapy, in an oncology reference clinic, during 2018. A data collection form was created with sociodemographic and clinical data and indicators of vascular trauma. The sensitivity and specificity of the clinical indicators were assessed using a latent class analysis of random effects. The clinical indicators of decreased vascular elasticity (0.8384), pain (0.9573), and signs of infection at the catheter insertion site (0.9999) were specific for identifying vascular trauma in antineoplastic chemotherapy patients. The prevalence of vascular trauma in these patients was 11.17%. A set of three clinical indicators was considered accurate and statistically significant for confirming vascular trauma. This study has provided accurate clinical indicators of vascular trauma in antineoplastic chemotherapy patients. These results can contribute to establishing interventions, thereby reducing costs and maximizing health outcomes in this population.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To identify the most frequent nursing diagnoses in chronic renal failure patients on hemodialysis. METHODS: A cross-sectional study including 178 patients, selected by convenience sample, consecutively recruited. For data collection, interview guides and physical examination were used. An individual process of clinical judgment for the nursing diagnoses was performed and, for better accuracy, the results obtained underwent a process of paired review among the authors. RESULTS: Twenty-four nursing diagnoses were identified, of which the most frequent were: risk for infection (100%); excessive fluid volume (99.4%); and, hypothermia (61.8%). CONCLUSION: The most frequent diagnoses identified were included in the safety / protection and nutrition domains of NANDA-I. .

OBJETIVO: identificar os diagnósticos de enfermagem mais frequentes em pacientes renais crônicos em hemodiálise. MÉTODOS: Estudo transversal com a inclusão de 178 pacientes, selecionados por amostragem de conveniência do tipo consecutiva. Para a coleta foram utilizados roteiros de entrevista e exame físico. Foi realizado um processo individual de julgamento clínico dos diagnósticos de enfermagem e os resultados obtidos passaram por processo de revisão de forma pareada entre os autores, para maior acurácia. RESULTADOS: Identificaram-se 24 diagnósticos de enfermagem, sendo os mais frequentes: risco de infecção (100%); volume de líquidos excessivo (99,4%); e hipotermia (61,8%). CONCLUSÃO: Os diagnósticos mais frequentes identificados estão inseridos nos domínios segurança/proteção e nutrição. .
