Abstract
Objective: To increase the level of evidence available for the nursing diagnosis "Frail Elderly Syndrome 000257" through content validation by nurses with expertise in caring for the elderly.
Method: Diagnostic content validation study in accordance with Fehring's proposal composed of two stages: integrative review of the literature according to Whittemore and Knafl's guidelines, which allowed us to update the diagnostic components, and, subsequently, expert consensus study by means of the Delphi method. A total of 61 nurses who met the inclusion criteria were included. A Likert-type questionnaire was used to identify levels of agreement with the respective components. Data distribution analysis was performed. Components >0.80 on the content validity index (CVI) were validated.
Results: Twelve defining characteristics, 10 related factors, 6 risk populations, and 2 associated conditions were validated by experts. Global CVI was determined for clinical indicators.
Conclusion: The components of the nursing diagnosis validated by experts in caring for the elderly provide an overview of the phenomenon of frailty in the elderly in hospital settings.
Implication for clinical practice: This study will provide nurses responsible for elderly care with the necessary tools to FES, enabling them guide and appropriate interventions to prevent complications, minimize risk, enhance the quality of life for older.
期刊介绍:
The International Journal of Nursing Knowledge, the official journal of NANDA International, is a peer-reviewed publication for key professionals committed to discovering, understanding and disseminating nursing knowledge.
The Journal aims to clarify the knowledge base of nursing and improve patient safety by developing and disseminating nursing diagnoses and standardized nursing languages, and promoting their clinical use. It seeks to encourage education in clinical reasoning, diagnosis, and assessment and ensure global consistency in conceptual languages.
The International Journal of Nursing Knowledge is an essential information resource for healthcare professionals concerned with developing nursing knowledge and /or clinical applications of standardized nursing languages in nursing research, education, practice, and policy.
The Journal accepts papers which contribute significantly to international nursing knowledge, including concept analyses, original and applied research, review articles and international and historical perspectives, and welcomes articles discussing clinical challenges and guidelines, education initiatives, and policy initiatives.
