Abstract

To validate the content of nursing outcomes for pediatric patients hospitalized with a nursing diagnosis of deficient diversional activity. The nursing outcomes were evaluated by expert nurses from a Brazilian hospital; the nurses used a Likert-type scale. We considered those that had a weighted average of ≥0.80 as valid outcomes. Eight (57.14%) nursing outcomes and 54 (45.38%) indicators were validated. The study suggests that nursing outcomes validated by the experts are pertinent for Brazilian pediatric patients hospitalized and diagnosed with deficient diversional activity. Nursing Outcomes Classification is a viable alternative for the assessment of nursing care outcomes. Further studies should investigate the applicability of these data in clinical practice.
