Abstract
NOVO-MUNOZ, María Mercedes et al. Patient classification systems: validation and cost of nursing interventions. Ene. [online]. 2022, vol.16, n.2, 1189. Epub Nov 14, 2022. ISSN 1988-348X.
The normalization of nursing language is a necessity to strive for excellence. It is necessary to have classification systems and resources to improve user service. The implementation of a methodology with nursing interventions, and the validation of interventions, is a professional challenge and an improvement in the quality of care.
Objectives:
To identify, specify and validate, in Tenerife hospitals, GDR 122 standardized interventions: "Circulatory disorders with acute myocardial infarction without cardiovascular complications. High alive". Identify, specify and validate in hospitals in Tenerife, standardized activities of intervention 4190: "Peripheral venous cannulation". Estimate the resources used and the cost of the intervention, in different institutions.
Two prospective and comparative studies were carried out. 42 interventions of the 64 of the standard and 5 distractors were validated. 22 interventions included in the GDR were not validated.
The average cost of the materials used was €2,911. The average time invested was 7.67 minutes. The intervention was carried out without difficulty in 140 cases, with an average of 6.58 minutes, and with difficulty in 22 cases, with a time of 10.18 minutes. The mean cost of the intervention was €4,624.
It was concluded with the validation of the GDR 122 interventions, proposing new interventions. The need for training in nursing methodology and in the use of classification systems was detected, as well as in improving records.
