Chronic Pain: Content Validation of Nursing Diagnosis in Slovakia and the Czech Republic

Abstract

Purpose

The main purpose of the study was to validate the defining characteristics and related factors of the nursing diagnosis “chronic pain” in Slovakia and the Czech Republic.

Methods

This is a descriptive study. The validation process involved was based on Fehring's Diagnostic Content Validity Model.

Findings

Three defining characteristics (reports pain, altered ability to continue previous activities, and depression) were classified as major by Slovak nurses, and one defining characteristic (reports pain) was classified as major by Czech nurses.

Conclusion

The results of the study provide guidance in devising strategies of pain assessment and can aid in the formulation of accurate nursing diagnoses.

Implications for Nursing Practice

The defining characteristic “reports pain” is important for arriving at the nursing diagnosis “chronic pain.”

Cieľ

Hlavným cieľom práce bola validácia definujúcich charakteristík a súvisiacich faktorov ošetrovateľskej diagnózy Chronická bolesť v Slovenskej republike a v Českej republike.

Metódy

Ide o deskriptívnu štúdiu. Validácia bola realizovaná prostredníctvom Fehringovho modelu validity diagnostického obsahu.

Výsledky

Za hlavné boli súborom slovenských expertov označené tri definujúce charakteristiky (udáva bolesť, zmenená schopnosť pokračovať v predchádzajúcich aktivitách, depresia) a českým súborom expertov jedna definujúca charakteristika (udáva bolesť).

Záver

Výsledky štúdie poskytujú návod pre zameranie posúdenia a môžu pomôcť pri presnej formulácii ošetrovateľskej diagnózy.

Implikácie Pre Ošetrovatel'skú Prax

Definujúca charakteristika “udáva bolesť” je dôležitá pri určení ošetrovateľskej diagnózy Chronická bolesť.
