Abstract Background Autoimmune encephalitis (AIE) is a group of inflammatory diseases characterized by the presence of antibodies against neuronal and glial antigens, leading to subacute psychiatric symptoms, memory complaints, and movement disorders. The patients are predominantly young, and delays in treatment are associated with worse prognosis. Objective With the support of the Brazilian Academy of Neurology (Academia Brasileira de Neurologia, ABN) and the Brazilian Society of Child Neurology (Sociedade Brasileira de Neurologia Infantil, SBNI), a consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of AIE in Brazil was developed using the Delphi method. Methods A total of 25 panelists, including adult and child neurologists, participated in the study. Results The panelists agreed that patients fulfilling criteria for possible AIE should be screened for antineuronal antibodies in the serum and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) using the tissue-based assay (TBA) and cell-based assay (CBA) techniques. Children should also be screened for anti-myelin oligodendrocyte glucoprotein antibodies (anti-MOG). Treatment should be started within the first 4 weeks of symptoms. The first-line option is methylprednisolone plus intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) or plasmapheresis, the second-line includes rituximab and/or cyclophosphamide, while third-line treatment options are bortezomib and tocilizumab. Most seizures in AIE are symptomatic, and antiseizure medications may be weaned after the acute stage. In anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (anti-NMDAR) encephalitis, the panelists have agreed that oral immunosuppressant agents should not be used. Patients should be evaluated at the acute and postacute stages using functional and cognitive scales, such as the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE), the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA), the Modified Rankin Scale (mRS), and the Clinical Assessment Scale in Autoimmune Encephalitis (CASE). Conclusion The present study provides tangible evidence for the effective management of AIE patients within the Brazilian healthcare system.
Resumo Antecedentes Encefalites autoimunes (EAIs) são um grupo de doenças inflamatórias caracterizadas pela presença de anticorpos contra antígenos neuronais e gliais, que ocasionam sintomas psiquiátricos subagudos, queixas de memória e distúrbios anormais do movimento. A maioria dos pacientes é jovem, e o atraso no tratamento está associado a pior prognóstico. Objetivo Com o apoio da Academia Brasileira de Neurologia (ABN) e da Sociedade Brasileira de Neurologia Infantil (SBNI), desenvolvemos um consenso sobre o diagnóstico e o tratamento da EAIs no Brasil utilizando a metodologia Delphi. Métodos Um total de 25 especialistas, incluindo neurologistas e neurologistas infantis, foram convidados a participar. Resultados Os especialistas concordaram que os pacientes com critérios de possíveis EAIs devem ser submetidos ao rastreio de anticorpos antineuronais no soro e no líquido cefalorraquidiano (LCR) por meio das técnicas de ensaio baseado em tecidos (tissue-based assay, TBA, em inglês) e ensaio baseado em células (cell-based assay, CBA, em inglês). As crianças também devem ser submetidas ao rastreio de de anticorpo contra a glicoproteína da mielina de oligodendrócitos (anti-myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein, anti-MOG, em inglês). O tratamento deve ser iniciado dentro das primeiras 4 semanas dos sintomas, sendo as opções de primeira linha metilprednisolona combinada com imunoglobulina intravenosa (IGIV) ou plasmaférese. O tratamento de segunda linha inclui rituximabe e ciclofosfamida. Bortezomib e tocilizumab são opções de tratamento de terceira linha. A maioria das crises epilépticas nas EAIs são sintomáticas, e os fármacos anticrise podem ser desmamadas após a fase aguda. Em relação à encefalite antirreceptor de N-metil-D-aspartato (anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor, anti-NMDAR, em inglês), os especialistas concordaram que agentes imunossupressores orais não devem ser usados. Os pacientes devem ser avaliados na fase aguda e pós-aguda mediante escalas funcionais e cognitivas, como Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE), Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA), Modified Rankin Scale (mRS), e Clinical Assessment Scale in Autoimmune Encephalitis (CASE). Conclusão Esta pesquisa oferece evidências tangíveis do manejo efetivo de pacientes com EAIs no sistema de saúde Brasileiro.
RESUMEN
ABSTRACT Objective: This article aims to reflect on the Delphi technique, a systematic process that uses the collective opinion of a group of experts to reach consensus on specific issues. Focusing on the field of nursing, we examine in a reflective manner the different modalities of this technique and its stages. Method: This is a theoretical reflection on the use of the Delphi technique, listing its different forms and conducting a critical evaluation of the method throughout its different stages. Results: Different variants of the technique are observed in the available literature, namely Traditional Delphi, Modified Delphi, e-Delphi, and the RAND/UCLA method, accompanied by epistemological and methodological changes in the traditional understanding of the Delphi technique. Despite the variability of formats, the technique should include three principles: the panel of experts, the anonymity of the responses, and the interactive process of controlled feedback. Throughout the article, a reflection is made on its stages, justification of the study area, expert panel, characteristics of the rounds, and termination criteria. Conclusion: We suggest our evaluation criteria so that authors, researchers, and reviewers can analyze the use of the Delphi technique in nursing research. It is also recommended that clear guidelines be created for presenting studies using the Delphi technique in the health area, as there are other established guidelines for other types of methods.

RESUMEN
Objective:Based on the core competence of stroke certified registered nurses, this study construct the theoretical raining curriculum system for stroke certified registered nurses and made a preliminary evaluation.Methods:Using Delphi expert consultation method and based on literature research, the first draft of training course for stroke certified registered nurses was formed. In the form of Email, 14 experts in the field of stroke care who met the selection criteria were sent a questionnaire, and two rounds of consultation were conducted. The theoretical raining curriculum system for the training of stroke specialist nurses was constructed; the purpose sampling method was used to evaluate the application effect of the stroke specialist nursing theoretical training curriculum system through the theoretical performance and satisfaction evaluation of 127 trainees who participated in the first phase of the stroke specialist nursing theoretical training curriculum.Results:The recovery rate and effective rate of the two rounds of expert consultation questionnaire were 14/14, the authority coefficient of the second round of expert consultation was 0.94, and the expert Kandall coordination coefficients of the first, second and third-level indexes were 0.356, 0.216, 0.207 respectively ( P<0.05). The training curriculum of stroke specialist nurses finally formed included 5 primary indicators (Professional practice concept, general nursing knowledge, stroke diagnosis and treatment, acute stroke nursing management, secondary prevention of cerebrovascular disease), 21 secondary indicators and 63 tertiary indicators. The Analytic hierarchy process was used to determine the weight coefficients of all levels of indicators, and the consistency Ratio <0.1. Based on the curriculum system as the content framework, theoretical courses were set up to train stroke specialist nurses. 109 trainees completed the post-training assessment. Before training, the qualified rate of theoretical performance of stroke certified registered nurses was 77.95% (99/127), and after training, the qualified rate of theoretical performance of stroke certified registered nurses was 100% (109/109). The difference was statistically significant ( χ 2=27.60, P<0.01). The excellent rate of theoretical performance of stroke certified registered nurses before training was 35.43% (45/127), and 100% (109/109) after training, the difference was statistically significant ( χ 2=24.17, P<0.01).The average score of the trainees′ satisfaction was (38.90±2.55) points. Conclusions:The theoretical raining curriculum system for stroke certified registered nurses setting constructed in this study standardizes the training system of stroke nurses to a certain extent, and provides a basis for the construction of homogeneous training courses in China in the future.
