Abstract
LIMA, Vivian Cristina Gama Souza et al. Nursing care after coronary transluminal angioplasty: protocol validation. Enferm. glob. [online]. 2019, vol.18, n.54, pp.374-409. Epub Oct 14, 2019. ISSN 1695-6141. https://dx.doi.org/10.6018/eglobal.18.2.338831.
Objectives
To validate an elaborate care protocol for clients after coronary transluminal angioplasty.
Methods
For the validation of the protocol, the Delphi technique was used, counting on a panel of nine judges, all nurses with expertise in the area of cardiology. In addition to the qualitative evaluation, as recommended by the Delphi technique, we used quantitative measures such as the content validity index and the agreement rate.
Results
According to the suggestions made by the experts in each round, the document was adjusted to reach the agreement rate and content validity index of at least 0,9, requiring three rounds of questionnaires.
Conclusion
The validated protocol is considered a tool to guide the practice of nurses working in this specific area.
