Abstract

to identify the factors related to the quality of umbilical cord and placental blood specimens, and define best practices for their collection in a government bank of umbilical cord and placental blood. this was a descriptive study, quantitative approach, performed at a government umbilical cord and placental blood bank, in two steps: 1) verification of the obstetric, neonatal and operational factors, using a specific tool for gathering data as non-participant observers; 2) definition of best practices by grouping non-conformities observed before, during and after blood collection. The data was analyzed using descriptive statistics and the following statistical software: Statistica(r) and R(r). while there was a correlation with obstetrical and neonatal factors, there was a larger correlation with operational factors, resulting in the need to adjust the professional practices of the nursing staff and obstetrical team involved in collecting this type of blood. Based on these non-conformities we defined best practices for nurses before, during and after blood collection. the best practices defined in this study are an important management tool for the work of nurses in obtaining blood specimens of high cell quality. identificar fatores relacionados à qualidade das amostras do sangue de cordão umbilical e placentário e definir boas práticas para sua coleta em um banco público de sangue de cordão umbilical e placentário. pesquisa descritiva, abordagem quantitativa, realizada em um banco público de sangue de cordão umbilical e placentário, desenvolvida em duas etapas: 1) verificação dos fatores obstétricos, neonatais e operacionais, obtidos por coleta em instrumento próprio e observação não participante; 2) definição das boas práticas, por meio do agrupamento de não-conformidades observadas antes, durante e após a coleta do sangue. Os dados foram analisados por meio da estatística descritiva, utilizando-se dos softwares Statistica(r) e R(r). houve correlação da influência dos fatores obstétricos e neonatais em menor escala quando comparados aos fatores operacionais, resultando na necessidade de readequar a prática profissional do enfermeiro e da equipe obstétrica envolvida no processo da coleta desse tipo de sangue. A partir das não-conformidades foram definidas boas práticas para o enfermeiro antes, durante e após a coleta. as boas práticas definidas neste estudo são importante ferramenta gerencial para o trabalho do enfermeiro na obtenção de amostras de sangue com alta qualidade celular. identificar factores relacionados a la calidad de las muestras de la sangre del cordón umbilical y de la placenta y definir buenas prácticas para su recolección en un banco público de sangre del cordón umbilical y de la placenta. investigación - descriptiva, abordaje cuantitativo, realizada en un banco público de sangre - del cordón umbilical y de la placenta, desarrollada en dos etapas: 1) verificación de los factores obstétricos, neonatales y operacionales, obtenidos por recolección con instrumento propio y observación no participante; 2) definición de las buenas prácticas, por medio del agrupamiento de no-conformidades observadas antes, durante y después de la recolección de la sangre.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 25 August 2016.
All research outputs
#22,758,309
of 25,373,627 outputs
Outputs from Revista Latino-Americana de Enfermagem
#749
of 842 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#314,133
of 354,572 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Revista Latino-Americana de Enfermagem
#31
of 35 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,373,627 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 842 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.3. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 354,572 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 35 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
