| Summary: | Introduction: Research instruments for diagnosing the current state of a process contribute to identifying the problems of health processes and the action plan.
Objective: To validate instruments for diagnosing the current state of nursing care for postpartum women with suspected thromboembolism.
Material and Methods: An instrument validation study was carried out from January to September 2023 at the Juan Bruno Zayas Alfonso Hospital in Santiago de Cuba. Two random samples were consulted (one was composed of specialists (n1=13) and the other was made up of experts (n2=7)). The instruments submitted to validation were two guides (one for observation and another for documentary review), as well as a questionnaire. These were validated through a pilot survey and Moriyama's basic criteria; for the latter, Cronbach's alpha was calculated.
Results: The three instruments were classified as adequate in terms of general design structure (100%); the majority of respondents classified the guide for documentary review as appropriate (number of items, 69.2%; structure and content, 84.6%; and interpretation,76.9%). Cronbach’s alphas were 0.86 for the guides and 0.94 for the questionnaire.
Conclusions: The three instruments were validated as appropriate for the diagnosis of the current state of nursing care for postpartum women with suspected thromboembolism, which showed high acceptance and reliability. |
