Abstract

to build and validate a data collection instrument for onco-hematological patients undergoing outpatient chemotherapy. methodological study that aimed to build a scientifically consistent data collection instrument to evaluate hematological patients. There were five stages: identification of empirical indicators, evaluation of empirical indicators by focus group, construction of the instrument, content validation by judges and clinical validation. Built based on the Theory of Basic Human Needs of Horta, adjusted by Garcias and Cubas. the built instrument contains data on patient identification, perception and expectations related to the disease, assessment of psychobiological, psychosocial and psychospiritual needs. It reached 95% CVI, ensuring the instrument's content validity and Cronbach's alpha test with a reliability of 0.93. the instrument is a valid technology to assist nurses in data collection and may serve as a tool for onco-hematological nursing care, teaching and research.

Highlights

  • Antineoplastic chemotherapy (CTX) remains an indispensable therapeutic option, which has the best cure results for many types of tumors, increasing the survival of cancer patients[1,2]. It is a systemic treatment of cancer administered at regular intervals, which vary according to therapeutic regimens[3]

  • After the elaboration of the instrument, it was validated in terms of content by seven judges with experience in onco-hematology and systematization of nursing care

  • The search resulted in a sample of 27 articles, in which 83 IE related to human needs were identified, being distributed according to each level of need described by Horta, equivalent to 60 in psychobiological needs, 22 in psychosocial needs and one in psycho-spiritual need

Summary

INTRODUCTION

Antineoplastic chemotherapy (CTX) remains an indispensable therapeutic option, which has the best cure results for many types of tumors, increasing the survival of cancer patients[1,2]. Knowing that the nursing process is made up of interrelated and dynamic stages, and that the initial stage of building the patient’s history is essential for the development of the others, there is a need to use complete data collection instruments and easy to understand, which allows obtaining relevant data for the nurse[7]. Once validated, this tool is considered to bring contributions to the outpatient care of patients with onco-hematological diseases undergoing antineoplastic treatment, given the lack of similar technology published in journals in the area
