This study aimed to validate clinically a decision tree (DT) developed for differentiation of two respiratory nursing diagnoses: Ineffective breathing pattern (IBP) and Ineffective airway clearing (IAC). This decision tree was developed in a previous study with 249 children with acute respiratory infection. One of the generated, the DT developed with the Classification and Regression Trees algorithm was chosen ...
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...

The aim of the study was to evaluate the resilience level from 19 adolescents between 10 and 15 years old with leprosy, assisted in a reference center in dermatology in the city of Fortaleza. Exploratory and descriptive study with quantitative approach, happened in 2010, in which used one questionnaire and three scales. From total adolescents, 14(73,7%) presented scores between 111 and 154 in the resilience sca...
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...
This cross-sectional study was performed with 151 children inpatients of a pediatric hospital in Northeastern Brazil, with the objective to analyze the accuracy of the defining characteristics of the diagnoses ineffective airway clearance in children with acute respiratory infection. A thorough respiratory evaluation was performed and the diagnostic inference was developed by specialists. The most frequent defi...
