RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: To analyze the standardized nursing languages in orthopedics from the perspective of the Nursing Role Effectiveness Model. METHOD: Mixed method research carried out in a hospital in southern Brazil between April 2016 and February 2017. Quantitative data were collected from 85 orthopedic patients using the NANDA-International, Nursing Interventions and Outcomes, and submitted to statistical analysis. Qualitative data were collected through interviews with 10 nurses and were analyzed using content analysis. RESULTS: Acute pain (96%) was a prevalent nursing diagnosis. Fall Prevention (33.3%) was the most prescribed intervention. Pain Level, Body Positioning: self-initiated and Mobility showed an increase in outcome scores (p<0.001). In the interviews, nurses indicated that priority diagnoses and nursing interventions contributed to improving mobility outcomes. CONCLUSION: The findings revealed that the focus of Standardized Nursing Languages in orthopedics from the perspective of the Nursing Role Effectiveness Model lies in the context of mobility, but it needs improvements in diagnostic accuracy and electronic health record.

Healthcare-associated infections represent a public health problem, and they have repercussions for patient safety. The aim of this study was to determine the psychometric properties of the Rodríguez-Almeida-Cañon (RAC) adult infection risk scale, focusing on the construct and predictive validity and reliability. The study enrolled 278 patients at a large hospital in southern Brazil. The research process involved the following three phases: construct validation, assessing predictive validity, and assessing reliability. Confirmatory factor analysis showed a good fit using a two-factor model with 15 items. The logistic regression analysis showed an association between the scale score and prediction of developing healthcare-associated infections (odds ratio: 1.18; 95% confidence interval: 1.08-1.28). The Cronbach's alpha was 0.72 for intrinsic factors subscale and 0.71 for extrinsic factors subscale. A high level of inter-rater agreement (intraclass correlation coefficient ≥0.97) was found for both subscales. The Bland and Altman method showed narrow agreement limits, demonstrating good agreement between evaluators. The findings of this study showed that the RAC adult infection risk scale is a new, reliable, and psychometrically valid instrument to assess healthcare-associated infections risk. Future research using this scale may lead to a better understanding of the healthcare-associated infections risk and assist health professionals in decision-making for interventions to improve patient safety.

ABSTRACT Objective To perform the psychometric evaluation of the Disordered Eating Attitude Scale (DEAS) for adolescents. Methods Sample consisted of 1,119 Brazilian adolescents (12-18 years old; 59.6% female) studying at technical schools in São Paulo state-Brazil, who answered an online survey with the DEAS, the Eating Attitude Test (EAT-26), and the Restraint Scale (RS). The internal consistency of the DEAS was assessed using Cronbach’s alpha. The convergent validity of DEAS was evaluated by means of Pearson’s coefficient correlation with EAT-26 and RS. The test-retest reliability was evaluated using a sub-sample of 61 adolescents. Known-groups validity was determined by comparing female student mean scores with scores of 33 female adolescents with eating disorders. Results The reliability of the DEAS was 0.79. EAT-26 and RS scores were positively correlated with DEAS scores (EAT: 0.78 for females and 0.59 for males, p < 0.001; RS: 0.63 for females and 0.48 for males, p < 0.001). The DEAS total and subscale scores differentiated students and patients with eating disorders (p < 0.001). The intra-class correlation coefficient for test-retest reliability was 0.87. Conclusion Results indicate that the DEAS adolescent version showed good internal consistency, convergent validity, known-groups validity, and test-retest reliability, suggesting its potential in identifying disordered eating attitudes among adolescents. It could also be helpful in identifying adolescents at risk from eating disorders, assisting in prevention programs.
RESUMO Objetivo Realizar a avaliação psicométrica da Escala de Atitudes Alimentares Transtornadas (EAAT) para adolescentes. Métodos A amostra foi composta por 1.119 adolescentes (12-18 anos; 59,6% do sexo feminino) estudantes de escolas técnicas do estado de São Paulo, que responderam online à EAAT, ao Teste de Atitudes Alimentares (EAT-26) e à Escala de Restrição (RS). A consistência interna da EAAT foi avaliada usando o alpha de Cronbach e a validade convergente por meio do coeficiente de correlação de Pearson com o EAT-26 e a RS. A confiabilidade teste-reteste foi avaliada usando uma subamostra de 61 adolescentes. A validade known-groups foi determinada pela comparação dos escores médios de estudantes do sexo feminino com os escores de 33 adolescentes do sexo feminino com transtornos alimentares. Resultados A consistência interna foi de 0,79, e as pontuações no EAT-26 e na RS estiveram positivamente correlacionadas com a pontuação da EAAT (EAT: 0,78 para o sexo feminino e 0,59 para o masculino, p < 0,001; RS: 0,63 para o sexo feminino e 0,48 para o masculino, p < 0,001). O escore da EAAT diferenciou estudantes e pacientes com transtornos alimentares (p < 0,001). O coeficiente de correlação intraclasse na confiabilidade teste-reteste foi de 0,87. Conclusão A versão da EAAT para adolescentes mostrou boa consistência interna, validade convergente, known-groups e confiabilidade teste-reteste, sugerindo o seu potencial na identificação de atitudes alimentares transtornadas entre adolescentes. Ela pode, portanto, ser útil na identificação de adolescentes com risco de transtornos alimentares, auxiliando em programas de prevenção.
RESUMO
Between September, 2007, and August, 2009, six field excursions were conducted on the northern Brazilian coast (Romana and Maiandeua islands, state of Pará) for the collection of specimens of freshwater turtles (Rhinoclemmys punctularia and Kinosternon scorpioides) in natural ponds. Hoop trap were used and 35 specimens of brown-banded water snakes, Helicops angulatus, were captured as bycatch in the traps. Thus, in addition to turtles, the procedure may be useful to sample populations of aquatic snakes.
Entre septiembre de 2007 y agosto de 2009, seis excursiones de campo se llevaron a cabo en la costa norte de Brasil (islas Romana y Maiandeua, estado de Pará) para la recolección de especímenes de tortugas de agua dulce (Rhinoclemmys punctularia y Kinosternon scorpioides) en posos naturales. Utilizamos trampas en embudo. 35 ejemplares de la serpiente acuática Helicops angulatus, fueron capturados como pesca incidental en las trampas. Por lo tanto, además de las tortugas, el procedimiento puede ser útil para la toma de muestras de las poblaciones de serpientes acuáticas.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: The aim of the present study was to investigate and compare load-deflection characteristics of commercially available thermally activated nickel-titanium archwires using a three-point bending test. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Sixty thermally activated 0.019×0.025-inch nickel-titanium archwires from six different manufacturers were investigated. The superelastic properties of these archwires were evaluated by conducting a three-point bending test under identical testing conditions. Forces generated at deactivation for a deflection of 0.5, 1, 2 and 3 mm at a temperature of 37° C were selected for statistical comparison of the data. The results of forces of deactivation at all deflections applied were compared by two-way analysis of variance and the Tukey test. RESULTS: Statistical differences (P<0.05) were found at all force levels during deactivations. The results showed that the range of forces displayed great variation in quantitative behaviour. None of the archwires showed permanent deformation after the three-point bending test. CONCLUSIONS: This study revealed significant differences in deactivation forces among the six types of thermally activated nickel-titanium archwires tested. NiTinol Termoativado (Aditek) and NeoSentalloy F200 (GAC) produced the least amount of force in all four deactivation categories.

OBJECTIVE: To determine the sensitivity of thyroglobulin (Tg), iodine scanning, and sonography in the diagnosis of cervical recurrence of thyroid cancer. METHODS: This prospective study assessed 81 patients with cervical metastases or extrathyroid invasion at first appearance who underwent clinical examination, scanning, measurement of Tg after thyroxine withdrawal, and sonography about 8 months after thyroidectomy followed by radioiodine treatment. Only patients without distant metastases and without anti-Tg antibodies were included. RESULTS: Fifty patients showed persistence of the disease in the cervical region, with only 16% of them having had a suspicion on clinical examination, 33 with Tg levels of 2 ng/mL or greater (66% sensitivity), and 29 with positive scan findings (58% sensitivity). A combination of the 2 methods detected disease in 40 (80%) of 50 patients but failed to show 20% of cases that were identified by sonography and confirmed by fine-needle aspiration. Sonography had sensitivity of 96%. Specificity values for Tg, iodine scanning, and sonography were 80.6%, 90.3%, and 87%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: Classic follow-up methods may not detect cervical disease in some patients with differentiated thyroid carcinoma, and sonography is necessary even in patients apparently free of the disease.
