Factores relacionados con el cumplimiento de la posición semiincorporada en el paciente con ventilación mecánica según los profesionales: cuestionario CAPCRI-Q / Factors associated with compliance to the semi-recumbent position in the patient on mechanical ventilation: CAPCRI-Q questionnaire

Objetivo: Elaborar un cuestionario (CAPCRI-Q) para determinar los factores relacionados con el cumplimiento de la posición semiincorporada en pacientes con ventilación mecánica. Metodología: Se creó un cuestionario cerrado a través de la revisión de la literatura y la práctica clínica. La versión inicial constó de 61 ítems englobados en 5 categorías: variables del paciente, factores de equipo y profesionales, de actividad, de formación y entrenamiento, y equipamiento y recursos. Para elaborar el cuestionario se usó el método Delphi. En cada ítem se evaluó la comprensión, la pertinencia y la importancia, así como las recomendaciones de los expertos. Se realizó una prueba piloto cualitativa con 9 profesionales y, posteriormente, una prueba piloto cuantitativa con 67 enfermeras de 6 unidades de cuidados intensivos para analizar la consistencia interna del instrumento. Resultados: Se requirieron 3 rondas con 15 expertos para llegar al consenso. La versión final del cuestionario constó de 36 ítems englobados dentro de las mismas categorías que la versión inicial. El análisis de consistencia interna mostró valores superiores a 0,800 para cada ítem, cada categoría y el cuestionario global (0,873; IC 95%: 0,825-0,913). El análisis de las respuestas destacó los factores individuales del paciente, así como los organizativos e infraestructurales, como factores relevantes en el cumplimiento de la recomendación. Conclusiones: El cuestionario creado es fiable y tiene validez aparente y de contenido. Los factores más influyentes en el cumplimiento son los relacionados con el paciente y organizativos. Los resultados pueden usarse para evaluar los factores influyentes en el cumplimiento y establecer estrategias de mejora

Aim: To create a questionnaire (CAPCRI-Q) to determine the factors associated with the compliance of the semi-recumbent position in patients under mechanical ventilation Methods: A closed questionnaire was created using a literature review and clinical practice. The initial version consisted of 61 items placed into 5 categories: patient factors, team and professionals factors, activity, educational and training factors, and equipment and resources. A Delphi method was used to prepare the questionnaire. Comprehension, relevance and importance of each item were evaluated, as well as the recommendations of experts. A qualitative pilot test with 9 healthcare professionals was performed, followed by a quantitative pilot test with 67 nurses from 6 intensive care units to test the internal consistency of the instrument. Results: Three rounds with 15 experts were required to reach a consensus. The final version of the questionnaire consisted of 36 items enclosed in the same categories as the initial version. The internal consistency analysis showed values greater than 0.800 for each independent item, each category, and for the global questionnaire (0.873; 95% CI: 0.825-0.913). The analysis of the nurses’ responses emphasised the importance of the patient factors, as well as organisational and infra-structural factors, for the compliance of the recommendation. Conclusions: The questionnaire created is reliable and appears to have content validity. The most influential factors for compliance are those related to the patient and the internal organisation. The results of the questionnaire can be used to evaluate the factors influencing the compliance and to establish improvement strategies
