RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: translate and adapt the Facilitator Competency Rubric to the Portuguese language and the Brazilian culture, and analyze the measurement properties. METHOD: methodological study that completed the steps of translation, synthesis of translations, back translation, review by a Committee of Experts composed of 7 professionals, testing of the pre-final version with 33 simulation facilitators, and submission to the author of the original instrument. For content validation, the Content Validity Index and the modified Kappa Coefficient were calculated. For reliability, Cronbach's α and the Intraclass Correlation Coefficient were evaluated by 52 and 15 simulation facilitators, respectively. RESULTS: two rounds of content evaluation were carried out, resulting in changes to 19 items in the first evaluation and 3 items in the second. The overall scale achieved a Cronbach's α of 0.98 and an Intraclass Correlation Coefficient of 0.95 to 0.97. CONCLUSION: the Facilitator Competency Rubric was translated and culturally adapted to the Brazilian reality and presented content validity, reliability and stability, with safe results for use in teaching and research.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: Planning for the child and adolescent to have a safe handling in the epilepsy transition process is essential. In this work, the authors translated the "Readiness Checklists" and applied them to a group of patients and their respective caregivers in the transition process to assess the possibility of using them as a monitoring and instructional instrument. METHODS: The "Readiness Checklists" were applied to thirty adolescents with epilepsy and their caregivers. The original English version of this instrument underwent a process of translation and cultural adaptation by a translator with knowledge of English and epilepsy. Subsequently, it was carried out the back-translation and the Portuguese version was compared to the original, analyzing discrepancies, thus obtaining the final version for the Brazilian population. RESULTS: Participants were able to answer the questions. In four questions there was an association between the teenagers' educational level and the response pattern to the questionnaires. The authors found a strong positive correlation between the responses of adolescents and caregivers (RhoSpearman = 0.837; p < 0.001). The application of the questionnaire by the health team was feasible for all interviewed patients and their respective caregivers. CONCLUSION: The translation and application of the "Readiness Checklists" is feasible in Portuguese. Patients with lower educational levels felt less prepared for the transition than patients with higher educational levels, independently of age. Adolescents and caregivers showed similar perceptions regarding patients' abilities. The lists can be very useful tools to assess and plan the follow-up of the population of patients with epilepsy in the process of transition.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The Hammersmith Functional Motor Scale Expanded (HFMSE) has been widely used to assess the motor function of patients with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) older than 2 years, with the ability to sit and/or walk. OBJECTIVE: To translate, cross-culturally adapt and validate the HFMSE to Brazilian Portuguese. METHODS: The translation process and cross-cultural adaptation followed international guidelines recommendations. The reliability and applicability of the Brazilian version consisted of the application of the HFMSE (in Brazilian Portuguese) to 20 patients with types 2 and 3 SMA. Two examiners assessed the participants for interrater reliability, through the analysis of Kappa reliability agreement (k) and intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC). RESULTS: The HFMSE was successfully translated and cross culturally adapted to Brazilian Portuguese. Twenty participants with types 2 and 3 SMA were enrolled in the study (type 2 = 6; type 3 = 14). The ICC for the total score showed very high reliability (ICC =1.00), and the reliability of each of the items individually was considered excellent (Kappa > 0.80). CONCLUSION: The Brazilian version of the HFMSE proved to be valid and reliable for the evaluation of SMA patients older than 2 years with the ability to sit and/or walk.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To identify health promotion strategies used by managers in primary health care. METHOD: Qualitative research, of a participant action nature, which adopted the Culture Circle proposed by Paulo Freire as its methodological reference. Eleven primary health care managers from a medium-sized municipality in southern Brazil took part. RESULTS: Nine generative themes emerged, categorized into four themes that highlight the interconnection between health promotion, social determinants and primary health care. These themes highlight preventive approaches, healthy habits and underline the need for a multidisciplinary approach to health care, recognizing the complexity of the dimensions involved, the influence of social determinants, environmental and health issues. These aspects call for intersectoral policies and actions, demonstrating the viability of health promotion in line with the principles of the Unified Health System. FINAL CONSIDERATIONS: The autonomy of professionals working in primary health care services is highlighted, especially that of nurses, who play a central role in connecting and organizing health promotion actions.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To perform the cross-cultural adaptation of CALCULATE for Brazilian Portuguese. METHOD: A methodological study conducted from January to December 2021, divided into six stages: translation, synthesis, back-translation, expert committee with the application of the content validity index, pre-testing in 40 adult patients, and submission to the authors. The study took place in the intensive care units of a public tertiary teaching hospital in the interior of the state of São Paulo, Brazil. The original CALCULATE has eight risk assessment items and is stratified with a score of 0-3 (high risk) and 4-8 (very high risk). RESULTS: After expert evaluation, the final content validity was 0.9. They suggested words and phrases that should undergo changes regarding textual equivalences, as well as definitions of acronyms and terminologies. In the pre-test, the items were assessed as suitable for understanding; only one item required additional explanation for adequacy. CONCLUSION: The cross-cultural adaptation of CALCULATE for Brazilian Portuguese was successfully performed, revealing a good content validity index, confirming the relevance and appropriateness of its items. CALCULATE is suitable for use in intensive care units and research and teaching centers.

RESUMO

As propagandas de bebidas alcóolicas, além de serem mais frequentes do que outras mercadorias, também apresentam conteúdo que pode ter papel facilitador no uso dessa substância psicoativa, visto que, na maior parte delas, trazem ideias e sensações de prazer. Por isso, esta pesquisa consistiu na identificação e análise qualitativa de propagandas de cerveja que tiveram alguma denúncia feita ao ou pelo Conselho Nacional de Autorregulamentação Publicitária (Conar), nos últimos cinco anos (2015 a 2020), a partir do levantamento dessas denúncias no site do Conar e, posteriormente, foi realizada análise dos motivos condizentes com o código. Como resultado, constatou-se uma progressão nos alinhamentos entre as denúncias e as decisões, sendo encontrada maior dificuldade no alinhamento da infração em relação ao conteúdo das peças publici-tárias do que em questões técnicas.

Advertisements for alcoholic beverages, in addition to being more frequent than other goods, also present content that can play a role in facilitating the use of this psychoactive substance, since, in most of them, they bring ideas and sensations of pleasure. Therefore, this research consisted of the identification and qualitative analysis of beer advertisements that had any complaints made to or by the National Advertising Self-Regulation Council (Conar), in the last five years (2015 to 2020), based on the survey of these complaints on the website of Conar and, subsequently, an analysis of the reasons consistent with the code was carried out. As a result, there was a progression in the alignments between complaints and decisions, with greater difficulty being found in aligning the infraction in relation to the content of the advertising pieces than in technical issues.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To perform the translation, cultural adaptation, and validation of the NOSE-Perf Scale to Brazilian Portuguese. METHODS: This study was divided into two stages. In the first stage, the questionnaire was submitted for translation and cultural adaptation, following the guidelines recommended by the ISPOR Task Force (International Society for Pharmacoeconomics and Outcomes Research). Then, the Brazilian Portuguese version of the NOSE-Perf scale was applied to a group with septal perforation and a control group. The group with perforation answered the questionnaire again after one month. Internal consistency, test-retest reliability, and discriminant validity were assessed. RESULTS: The Brazilian Portuguese version of the NOSE-Perf scale was applied to 32 participants, 16 from the group with septal perforations and 16 controls. The instrument obtained high internal consistency, with Cronbach's alpha scores of 0.986. High reliability was also obtained, with Spearman's correlation coefficient of 0.996 (p < 0.001) and the intraclass correlation coefficient of 0.965 with a 95% Confidence Interval (95% CI) of 0.886‒0.988. The NSP group obtained a mean total score of 13.8 ±â€¯12.6 and the control group a score of 2.3 ±â€¯1.8, with a statistical difference between the groups (p < 0.001), demonstrating good discriminant validity. CONCLUSION: The Brazilian Portuguese version of the NOSE-Perf scale is a reliable and valid instrument for measuring symptoms in patients with nasal septum perforations.
