Abstract

Objective: To develop the concept of a Healthcare-Associated Infections Controller.

Method: A qualitative methodological study, based on the Hybrid Model of Concept Development, conducted in three phases: Theoretical Phase (through a scoping review with a sample of 28 studies), Field Phase (online meeting with 30 professionals in the field), and Final Analytical Phase (data analysis and concept definition).

Results: The antecedents, attributes, and consequences identified in the theoretical phase were similar to those described by the professionals. In the field phase, the majority of professionals defined "Infection Controller" as the most appropriate term for this professional. In the final analytical phase, the elements identified in the previous phases were similar; however, they had particularities.

Final considerations: The concept of a Healthcare-Associated Infections Controller was developed, providing nurses with a better understanding of their role in care delivery and enhancing their awareness of their actions.

医疗保健相关感染控制员：概念开发。

目的：建立卫生保健相关感染控制者的概念。方法：一项基于概念发展混合模型的定性方法论研究，分三个阶段进行：理论阶段（通过对28项研究样本的范围审查），现场阶段（与该领域的30名专业人员进行在线会议）和最终分析阶段（数据分析和概念定义）。结果：理论阶段确定的前因、属性和后果与专业人员描述的相似。在现场阶段，大多数专业人员将“感染控制者”定义为最适合该专业人员的术语。在最后的分析阶段，在前几个阶段确定的元素是相似的；然而，他们有自己的特点。最后考虑事项：提出了医疗保健相关感染控制器的概念，使护士更好地了解自己在护理服务中的作用，并提高了她们对自己行为的认识。
