Abstract
Background: Diagnostic accuracy studies are important to identify the best set of defining characteristics for a given nursing diagnosis. The reliability of nursing inferences can be increased by using clinical indicators with high prediction capacity helping nurses to be more accurate in their clinical practice.
Objective: To clinically validate the nursing diagnosis Decreased diversional activity engagement in adult patients with diabetes.
Method: A diagnostic accuracy study with a cross-sectional design was carried out patients with type 2 diabetes. A latent class model with random effects was used to measure the sensitivity and specificity.
Results: The diagnosis of Decreased diversional activity engagement was present in 62.2% of the patients. The defining characteristics with high sensitivity (good indicators for confirmation) were discontent with situation, physical deconditioning, and altertion in mood. Boredom, flat affect, discontent with situation, and frequent naps were the defining characteristics with the highest specificity values. These factors are considered good integrating components of the diagnosis under investigation in patients with diabetes.
Conclusion: The nursing diagnosis decreased diversional activity engagement is frequent in patients with diabetes, and discontent with situation can be considered a good predictor of its occurrence due to its high values of specificity and sensitivity.
Impact: The use of accurate clinical indicators in the diagnostic reasoning of nurses contributes to the achievement of outcomes centered on the patient's human responses.
