To determine what adverse events, including pressure ulcers, infection of the surgical site and aspiration pneumonia, nurses record in clinical histories, in terms of diagnostic accuracy and completeness, through ATIC.
Observational, descriptive, cross-sectional, multicenter study of 64 medical-surgical and semi-critical units of two university hospitals in Catalonia, Spain, during 2015. The diagnostic accuracy was assessed by means of the correspondence between the event declared in the Minimum Basic Data Set and the problem documented by the nurse. The record was considered complete when it contained the risk of the event, prescriptions of care and a record of the evolution.
The sample evaluated included 459 records. The accuracy results of pressure ulcers are highly correlated between the nursing diagnosis recorded and that declared in the Minimum Basic Data Set. The accuracy in surgical site infection is moderate, and aspiration resulting in pneumonia is very low. The completeness of results is remarkable, except for the risk of bronchoaspiration.
The adverse event recorded by nurses with greatest accuracy is pressure ulcers.
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 5. 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 22 April 2018.
All research outputs
#7,567,844
of 27,266,263 outputs
Outputs from Revista da Escola de Enfermagem da USP
#59
of 814 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#108,657
of 328,282 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Revista da Escola de Enfermagem da USP
#1
of 8 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 27,266,263 research outputs across all sources so far. This one has received more attention than most of these and is in the 72nd percentile.
So far Altmetric has tracked 814 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 2.0. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 92% of its peers.
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 328,282 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 66% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 8 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has scored higher than all of them
