- Ansiedade relacionada à morte em cuidados paliativos: validação do diagnóstico de enfermagemPublication . Abreu-Figueiredo, R.; Sá, Luís; Lourenço, Tânia; Almeida, Sandra Sofia Barbosa Pinto deObjetivo: Identificar a prevalência do diagnóstico de enfermagem ansiedade relacionada à morte da NANDA-I em cuidadores familiares de doentes paliativos; e validar as características definidoras associadas. Métodos: Estudo transversal, exploratório e descritivo utilizando o Modelo de Validação Clínica de Fehring, em uma amostra de 111 cuidadores familiares de doentes paliativos. Foi calculada a sensibilidade, especificidade e valor preditivo das características definidoras. As questões formuladas para operacionalizar as características definidoras foram validadas por um painel de peritos. Resultados: A prevalência do diagnóstico foi de 38,7% na amostra estudada. Foram alvo de validação clínica 17 características definidoras, oito delas emergiram de uma prévia revisão da literatura. Nove características foram classificadas como principais e oito secundárias. Conclusão: O diagnóstico foi validado em cuidadores familiares de doentes paliativos. A validação clínica de novas características definidoras confirmou a necessidade da sua revisão de modo a estar adequado à clínica. A prevalência do diagnóstico na amostra estudada, indica que este é um fenômeno relevante a que os profissionais devem estar particularmente atentos, de modo a implementar intervenções específicas para minimizar a ansiedade relacionada à morte dos cuidadores familiares de doentes paliativos.
- Predictive Model of the Psychological WellBeing of Nursing Students During the COVID-19 LockdownPublication . Lourenço, Tânia; Reis, Ana Catarina Rodrigues da Silva; Alvarez, Enrique Jesús Sáez; Abreu-Figueiredo, R.; Charepe, Zaida; Marques, Goreti; Vieira Gonçalves, MariaIntroduction: Lockdowns due to the COVID-19 pandemic radically changed nursing education. Along with social isolation, the transition to distance education affected the well-being of students in several countries, particularly Portugal and Spain. Objectives: To identify which variables are predictors of psychological well-being for Portuguese and Spanish nursing students during mandatory lockdowns. Methods: A multicenter, cross-sectional, descriptive, correlational study involving a sample of 1075 students (944 women, mean age 22.46+/−4.95 years). Data were collected from an online questionnaire which applied the following scales: Perceived Stress Scale (α =.820); Brief COPE-14 Subscales (α =.430 < 0.930); Well-being Manifestations Measure Scale (α =.940); Herth Hope Index (α=.850). A multiple regression model was created to predict the psychological well-being of nursing students. Results: The following predictor variables were identified in the model of the psychological well-being of students during the COVID-19 pandemic: perceived stress (β=.405; p≤.001); hope (β=.404; p≤.001); and the mechanisms of active coping (β=.405; p≤.001), planning (β=.097; p≤.001), and positive reinterpretation (β=.053; p = .12). These five variables predicted 62.0% of the nursing students’ psychological well-being (R2=.620; F = 350.82; p≤.001). Conclusion: Promoting students’ mental health is essential, especially in periods of great adversity, such as a pandemic. Our results lead the way for the design and validation of an intervention program that addresses the five variables identified as predictors of students’ psychological well-being

B.; Rabiais, Isabel; Alvarez, Enrique Jesús Sáez; Abreu-Figueiredo, R.; Deodato, SérgioObjetivo: analisar as relações entre a esperança e o bem-estar psicológico de estudantes de enfermagem portugueses durante a crise pandêmica pela COVID-19. Método: estudo descritivo-correlacional, com recurso a questionário online para coleta de dados. Participaram 705 estudantes de enfermagem com idade média de 21,74 anos (DP=4,44). Os instrumentos de coleta de dados utilizados foram a Escala de Esperança de Herth (HHI-PT) e a Escala de Medida de Manifestação de Bem-Estar Psicológico (EMMBEP).

Resultados: na HHI-PT, o domínio afectivo-comportamental obteve a pontuação média mais alta, 3,30 (DP=0,45); no EMMBEP, foi o domínio sociabilidade, 3,64 (DP=0,77).

- Review of nursing diagnosis validation studies: caregiver role strainPublication . Lourenço, Tânia; Abreu-Figueiredo, R.; Sá, LuísObjective: To analyze the nursing diagnosis NANDA-I - Caregiver Role Strain validation studies. Methods: Integrative literature review. Research of studies carried out between 2000 and 2018 with the descriptors: caregivers, nursing diagnosis and validation study in the following databases: Web of Science, EBESCOhost, Scielo Brasil and Portugal, LILACS, RCAAP, CAPES, NANDA-I website, and in the bibliographic references of the articles. Articles in Portuguese, English or Spanish were included. Results: The sample consisted of seven validation studies, with heterogeneity in the methodologies used. The populations where the diagnosis was clinically validated focused on caregivers for the elderly and people with chronic illness. The most prevalent defining characteristics were Stress and Apprehension related to the future. Conclusions: This diagnosis requires further validation studies among different populations in search of greater accuracy and a reduction in the number of defining characteristics, facilitating the use of taxonomy
- Clinical validation of the NANDA-I "caregiver role strain" nursing diagnosis in the context of palliative carePublication . Lourenço, Tânia; Abreu-Figueiredo, R.; Sá, LuísObjective: to clinically validate the defining characteristics of the “Caregiver Role Strain” Nursing diagnosis for caregivers of people in a palliative care situation. Method: a cross-sectional, quantitative, descriptive and analytical study. It was developed based on Fehring’s Clinical Validation Model and on the diagnostic accuracy measures (sensitivity, specificity, predictive values and Receiver Operating Characteristic curve). The data collection instrument used was a form, applied in 2017 by two nurses to a sample of 111 caregivers of people in a palliative care situation, in Portugal. The caregivers were divided into two groups (with and without the diagnosis), being identified by the simultaneity of three criteria, namely: Zarit Burden Interview values greater than 56; agreement of two nurses about the diagnosis; and caregiver’s perception of the presence of signs and symptoms. The defining characteristics were classified as major, secondary and irrelevant, according to the models used. Results: the prevalence of diagnosis was 42.3%. Of the 29 characteristics subjected to the validation process, 9 were considered major, 13 secondary and 7 irrelevant. Ineffective coping, depressive mood, frustration, worsening of previous diseases, stress and fatigue were the characteristics which proved to be more associated with the diagnosis in both analyses. The overall score of the diagnosis was 0.68. Conclusion: the study results contribute to the improvement of the diagnosis, making it more accurate. In addition, they enable better clinical decision in Nursing, allowing nurses to make a diagnostic judgment supported by scientific evidence
