  • Nursing Interventions to Promote Self-Care in a Candidate for a Bowel Elimination Ostomy: Scoping Review
    Publication . Soares-Pinto, Igor; Queirós, Sílvia; Alves, Paulo; Manuel, Tânia; Santos, Célia; Brito, Alice
    Objectives: To identify nursing interventions, their characteristics, and outcomes for promoting self-care in candidates for a bowel elimination ostomy. Materials and methods: A scoping review was carried out based on the Joanna Briggs Institute’s recommendations. For this, studies published in Portuguese, English, and Spanish on the Web of Science, CINAHL, and Scopus databases and without a time limit were selected on November 9, 2020. Results: Of 2248 articles identified, 41 were included in this review. We identified 20 nursing interventions associated with the self-care of patients with an ostomy; most of them have gaps in their content, method, and frequency or dosing. More than 30 indicators were identified to assess the impact of nursing interventions; however, most of them were indirect assessments. Conclusion: There is scarce evidence regarding the different aspects that must be involved in nursing interventions for patients with a stoma. Moreover, there is no standardization in methods, frequency, or dosing of intervention. It is urgent to define the content, method, and frequency of nursing interventions necessary to promote self-care in patients with a bowel elimination ostomy and to use assessment tools that directly measure stoma self-care competence
  • Self-care competence of patients with an intestinal stoma in the preoperative fase
    Publication . Silva, Carla; Santos, Célia; Brito, Alice; Cardoso, Teresa; Lopes, Joana
    Background: Patients undergoing intestinal stoma formation need to develop their stoma self-care competence. This competence should start being developed during the preoperative phase. Objective: To identify patients’ stoma self-care competence in the preoperative phase, particularly on the day before ostomy surgery. Methodology: Quantitative, descriptive, and cross-sectional study. Non-probability sampling technique with 50 participants. Data were collected using the assessment form of the Self-Care Competence of the Person with an Intestinal Stoma (CAO-EI: ESEP). Results: The level of knowledge represents the self-care competence of patients with an intestinal stoma in the preoperative phase of an ostomy surgery. Conclusion: The multidimensional nature of the self-care competence of patients with intestinal stoma justifies exploring other domains of this competence besides knowledge in the preoperative phase given the identified benefits on the process of adaptation after surgery
  • Psychometric Properties of the Form Development of Self-Care Competence of the Person with a Bowel Elimination Ostomy
    Publication . Pinto, Igor; Santos, Célia; Brito, Alice; Queirós, Sílvia
    Background: The use of an instrument to assess the self-care competence in patients with bowel elimination ostomy allows for the systematic identification of their specific needs, ensuring the continuity of nursing care. Although an instrument that assesses the domains that integrate this competence has been developed in Portugal, it has not yet been validated. Objectives: To assess the psychometric properties of the form Development of Self-Care Competence of the Person with a Bowel Elimination Ostomy. Methodology: Methodological study aimed at analyzing the psychometric properties of a measurement instrument, written in Portuguese. Results: The Cronbach’s alpha was 0.95 and the inter-rater reliability showed a correlation greater than or equal to 0.98. A statistically significant correlation was found in the split-half test, as well as in the clinical sensitivity analysis. Conclusion: The form presented good psychometric indicators, which suggests that it is a useful tool to be used in the nursing diagnosis process, thus contributing to the optimization of nursing care.
  • Risk factors associated with the development of elimination stoma and peristomal skincomplications
    Publication . Pinto, Igor; Queirós, Sílvia; Queirós, Cármen; Silva, Carla; Santos, Célia; Brito, Alice
    Background: Stoma formation leads to changes that are influenced by several factors, namely the presence of stoma and/or peristomal skin complications. It is estimated that 80% of ostomy patients have at least one stoma-related complication throughout their life. Objectives: To identify the risk factors associated with the development of elimination stoma and peristomal skin complications. Methodology: Literature review, based on the methodological strategy of the Joanna Briggs Institute for scoping reviews. A total of 1,492 articles were identified, of which 22 were included for analysis. Results: Most of the risk factors for the development of complications are non-modifiable. Pre and postoperative education, stoma site marking, and follow-up after hospital discharge are some of the nursing-sensitive factors. Conclusion: The identification of risk factors associated with the development of stoma complications allows nurses to early identify patients’ vulnerability indicators and intervene more effectively.
  • Data, diagnoses, and nursing interventions focused on a person living with an ostomy: scoping review protocol
    Publication . Silva, Carla; Brito, Alice; Paiva, Abel; Queiros, Carmen; Morais, Ernesto; Bastos, Fernanda
    Introduction: The building of an ostomy generates changes that trigger a health/disease transition. Nurses play a major role in adapting to the new condition. It is important to formalize nursing knowledge that supports nurses’ decision-making in order to incorporate it into information systems that promote evidence-based nursing practice. Objetive: Continuously map the nursing knowledge involved in the process of care planning, focusing on the person living with an ostomy. Methods: Joanna Briggs Institute's scoping review guidance and, the Cochrane Collaboration's guidance on living systematic reviews will be followed to meet the review's objective. Two independent reviewers will evaluate the relevance of the articles, the extraction and synthesis of the data. Studies published in English, Spanish and Portuguese from 2009 onwards, searched in MEDLINE (PubMed), CINAHL (EBSCO), Scopus, JBI Library of Systematic Reviews and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, OpenGrey, RCAAP and Dart-Europa will be included. Results: It is expected to map the data, diagnoses and nursing interventions centered on the person living with an ostomy, allowing the formalization of the knowledge involved in the design of nursing care for this population group. Conclusion: This scope review will show trends that will support nurses' decision making in order to improve the quality of clinical practice.
  • Validation of a form to assess the self-care competence of the person with ventilation ostomy
    Publication . Pereira, Brizida; Queirós, Sílvia; Brito, Alice; Santos, Célia
    Introduction: Self-care competence can improve health outcomes in people with a tracheostomy. The use of an instrument to assess the self-care competence of the person with an ostomy allows for organized and complete data collection, facilitating the identification of nursing care needs. In Portugal there is no validated instrument that allows the assessment of self-care competence of the person with a tracheostomy. Objetives: To assess the psychometric and clinimetric properties of the form to assess self-care competence of the person with a tracheostomy. Methods: Methodological study in a non-probability sample of 195 participants. Results: The form presented high internal consistency values, being greater than 0.90 in all domains. Inter-judge reliability, the Wilcoxon test, and the two-half test showed very similar values ​​in the evaluation performed between evaluators. Regarding its validity, a positive interdomain correlation and good relation between clinical variables were demonstrated. Conclusion: The instrument demonstrated good psychometric and clinimetric properties, however further studies are needed to assess reliability and validity.
