  • Strategical Pedagogy for the Development of Socio-Emotional Competences in Nursing Students
    Publication . Andrian Leal, Laura; Cassiano, Carolina; J. M. Cruchinho, Paulo; Nunes, Elisabete; Lucas, P.; Teixeira, Gisela; Henriques, Silvia Helena
    Socio-emotional competencies (SECs) are essential for the quality of nursing practice. This study aimed to understand the pedagogical strategies provided by universities for the development of SECs in Brazil, as perceived by nursing students. This is a descriptive, exploratory study with a qualitative approach involving 57 nursing students from a public Higher Education Institution in Brazil. Data collection was conducted through focus groups, and interpretation was carried out using inductive thematic analysis. The pedagogical strategies identified were categorized as follows: those offered by the curriculum matrix, those provided by the Nursing course department, those made available by the university as a whole (involving all courses and students), and the challenges related to the development of socio-emotional competencies. This study revealed a deficit in the integration of SECs in the curriculum, highlighting the need for curricular restructuring and discussions on this topic. Equipping students with socio-emotional competencies during their training can help address these gaps, fostering greater resilience and self-care capabilities among nursing professionals.
  • Translation, cross-cultural adaptation, and validation of measurement instruments :
    Publication . J. M. Cruchinho, Paulo; López-Franco, María-Dolores; Capelas, ML; Almeida, Sofia; Bennett, Phillippa May; Miranda da Silva, Marcelle; Teixeira, Gisela; Nunes, Elisabete; Lucas, P.; Mendes Gaspar, Maria Filomena
    Cross-cultural validation of self-reported measurement instruments for research is a long and complex process, which involves specific risks of bias that could affect the research process and results. Furthermore, it requires researchers to have a wide range of technical knowledge about the translation, adaptation and pre-test aspects, their purposes and options, about the different psychometric properties, and the required evidence for their assessment and knowledge about the quantitative data processing and analysis using statistical software. This article aimed: 1) identify all guidelines and recommendations for translation, cross-cultural adaptation, and validation within the healthcare sciences; 2) describe the methodological approaches established in these guidelines for conducting translation, adaptation, and cross-cultural validation; and 3) provide a practical guideline featuring various methodological options for novice researchers involved in translating, adapting, and validating measurement instruments. Forty-two guidelines on translation, adaptation, or cross-cultural validation of measurement instruments were obtained from “CINAHL with Full Text” (via EBSCO) and “MEDLINE with Full Text”. A content analysis was conducted to identify the similarities and differences in the methodological approaches recommended. Bases on these similarities and differences, we proposed an eight-step guideline that includes: a) forward translation; 2) synthesis of translations; 3) back translation; 4) harmonization; 5) pre-testing; 6) field testing; 7) psychometric validation, and 8) analysis of psychometric properties. It is a practical guideline because it provides extensive and comprehensive information on the methodological approaches available to researchers. This is the first methodological literature review carried out in the healthcare sciences regarding the methodological approaches recommended by existing guidelines.
  • Evaluating the Methodological Approaches of Cross-Cultural Adaptation of the Bedside Handover Attitudes and Behaviours Questionnaire into Portuguese
    Publication . Cruchinho, Paulo J. M.; Teixeira, Gisela; Lucas, P.; Mendes Gaspar, Maria Filomena
    Abstract: Nurse managers need culturally adapted assessment instruments to support the implementation of change to Nursing Bedside Handover (NBH) in healthcare institutions. This study aimed to cross-culturally adapt the Bedside Handover Attitudes and Behaviours (BHAB) questionnaire to the Portuguese context and evaluate the methodological approaches used for this purpose. To guide this study, we followed a guideline for cross-cultural translation and adaptation measurement instruments in healthcare. The results of the content validity testing suggested that the BHAB questionnaire is a valid instrument for use in the Portuguese context. To obtain these results we showed 1) using of a new methodological approach, the dual focus, to resolve the divergences and ambiguities in the translators’ committee and the multi-professional committee; 2) the lack of a conceptual definition of the construct of the instrument as a requirement to retain items with I-CVI <0.70 after validity relevance pretesting and 3) the cognitive debriefing and relevance pretesting as methodological approaches which can be used alone or together to reinforce the evaluation of cultural relevance of the items. We concluded there is a need for guidelines to support the decision-making process of healthcare researchers with comprehensive information about the different methodological approaches they can follow.
  • How the Nursing Practice Environment Influences Retention and Turnover Intention: An Umbrella Review Protocol
    Publication . Figueiredo, Ana Rita; Gaspar, Filomena; Baixinho, Cristina; Lucas, Pedro
    Currently, there is a global shortage of nurses, which has a negative impact on health institutions, mainly on the quality of care provided. The quality of nursing care depends on several factors, including the nursing practice environment, which has been stated as a fundamental element for the successful functioning of health systems. Scientific evidence shows that favorable practice environments contribute to nurse retention, and unfavorable environments increase nurses’ turnover intention. Retaining nurses is essential to ensure the sustainability of healthcare organizations and the quality of nurse care. In the current shortage scenario, this issue has become even more significant. Objective: This review aims to identify systematic literature reviews that describe the characteristics of nursing practice environments that contribute to nurse retention or turnover intention in hospitals. Methods: The umbrella review will follow the Joanna Briggs Institute methodology, the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis reporting guidelines, and the Preferred Reporting Items for Overviews of Reviews guidelines. A search with indexed terms will be performed in various databases, and two reviewers will identify, select, and extract studies, while a third reviewer will resolve any disagreements. Results: This protocol provides a structured approach for conducting the review, and the initial searches have identified 440 articles, with no previous protocol or umbrella review identified, underscoring the importance of this research. Conclusions: This study will enhance the dissemination of scientific evidence regarding nursing practice environments, thereby contributing to an improved understanding of factors affecting nurse retention and turnover intention.
  • Mapping Strategies for Strengthening Safety Culture: A Scoping Review
    Publication . Pacenko, Cristiane de Lima; Figueiredo, Karla Crozeta; Nunes, Elisabete; Cruchinho, Paulo; Lucas, P. B.
    Background: Twenty years after the “To Err Is Human” report, one in ten patients still suffer harm in hospitals in high-income countries, highlighting the need to strengthen the culture of safety in healthcare. This scoping review aims to map patient safety culture strengthening strategies described in the literature. Method: This scoping review follows the JBI methodology. It adhered to all scoping review checklist items (PRISMA-ScR) with searches in the Lilacs, MedLine, IBECS, and PubMed databases and on the official websites of Brazilian and North American patient safety organizations. The research took place during the year 2023. Results: In total, 58 studies comprising 52 articles and 6 documents from health organizations were included. Various strategies were identified and grouped into seven categories based on similarity, highlighting the need for a comprehensive organizational approach to improve patient care. The most described strategies were communication (69%), followed by teamwork (58.6%) and active leadership (56.9%). Conclusion: The identified strategies can promote the development of a culture in which an organization can achieve patient safety, involving practices and attitudes that reduce risks and errors in healthcare. However, the identification of strategies is limited because it is restricted to certain databases and websites of international organizations and does not cover a broader spectrum of sources. Furthermore, the effectiveness of these strategies in improving patient safety culture has not yet been evaluated.
  • Instruments for Patient Safety Assessment: A Scoping Review
    Publication . Nunes, Elisabete; Sirtoli, Fernanda; Lima, Eliane; Minarini, Greyce; Gaspar, Filomena; Lucas, Pedro; Primo, Cândida
    Background: Patient safety is an important component of healthcare service quality, and there are numerous instruments in the literature that measure patient safety. This scoping reviewaims to map the instruments/scales for assessing patient safety in healthcare services. Method: This scoping review follows the JBI methodology. The protocol was registered on the Open Science Framework. Eligibility criteria were defined based on studies that include instruments or scales for assessing patient safety in healthcare services, in any language, and without temporal restrictions. It adhered to all scoping review checklist items [PRISMA-ScR], with searches in the Embase, Lilacs, MedLine, and Scopus databases, as well as the repository of the Brazilian Digital Library of Theses and Dissertations. Two independent reviewers performed selection and data extraction in July 2023. Results: Of the 4019 potential titles, 63 studies reported on a total of 47 instruments/scales and 71 dimensions for patient safety assessment. The most-described dimensions were teamwork, professional satisfaction, safety climate, communication, and working conditions. Conclusion: The diversity of instruments and dimensions for patient safety assessment characterizes the multidimensionality and scope of patient safety. However, it hinders benchmarking between institutions and healthcare units.
