Objective: to identify the diverse scientific evidence on the types ofskin lesions caused due to the use of Personal Protective Equipment inhealth professionals during the COVID-19 pandemic and to verify therecommended prevention measures. Method: this is an integrativereview carried out in the MEDLINE, CINAHL, LILACS, SCOPUS,Science Direct, Web of Science and SciELO databases. The searchwas conducted in a pair...
The aim of this study was to investigate the main therapeutic regimens used so far in the Covid-19 fight on the world stage. Is a systematic literature review conducted in ScienceDirect, Literatura Latino-Americana e do Caribe em Ciências da Saúde (Lilacs) and Scientific Electronic Library Online (SciELO) databases, using the term “treatment Covid-19”, carried out in April 2020. We selected 16 articles accordin...
The objective of the study was to verify defining characteristics with greater predictive power to aid in the classification of ineffective breathing pattern using classification trees in children with acute respiratory infections. A cross-sectional study was carried out in two pediatric hospitals with 249 children with acute respiratory infection. For data collection, a specific instrument developed for the st...
The aim of this study was to identify the defining characteristics that allow clinical differentiation of the nursing diagnoses, ineffective breathing pattern (IBP), ineffective airway clearance (IAC), and impaired gas exchange (IGE). A secondary analysis with a cohort design was developed from 1128 records obtained during the hospital stay of 136 children with acute respiratory infection. Groups of defining ch...
Objective: to analyze the defi ning characteristics of the nursing diagnosis “ineffective airway clearance” in children with acute respiratory infection. Method: cross-sectional descriptive study, developed in two hospitals specialized in care for children. It was held a detailed respiratory evaluation of the child to identify the defi ning characteristics of the diagnosis under study. Results: a total of 249 c...
Purpose: The aim of this study was to analyze the accuracy of the de fi ning characteristics of ineffective breathing pattern (IBP) in postoperative cardiac patients. Methods: A diagnostic accuracy study was performed with 98 patients. Measures of sensitivity, speci fi city, predictive values, likelihood ratios, diagnostic odds ratio, and area under the ROC curve were calculated. Results: IBP was present in 23....
The nursing diagnosis Impaired gas exchange presents strong relation with the cardiac and respiratory function, but its identification is many times accomplished without scientific evidences. A cross-sectional study aimed at comparing indicators of impaired gas exchange in patients with Acute Coronary Syndrome, Acute Myocardial Infarction and Heart Failure. The instrument contemplated health status indicators o...
The development of studies to differentiate closely related nursing diagnoses is useful to reduce uncertainties that may arise during the diagnostic inference process. This differentiation becomes necessary as the inference related diagnoses can be influenced if they provide similar defining characteristics or whose names leads to the incorporation of other information. Because of the importance in researches r...

PURPOSE: To determine the accuracy of NANDA-I defining characteristics for the nursing diagnosis, ineffective breathing pattern, in children with acute respiratory infection. METHODS: This was a prospective cohort study in 136 children. Measures of accuracy were calculated for the defining characteristics. FINDINGS: Use of accessory muscles to breathe presented the best measure of accuracy. Alterations in depth...
