Journal Title: Revista Información Científica - Year 2018, Vol 97, Issue 4
Abstract
Introduction: Nursing professionals must have a training that guarantees quality assurance of the challenges imposed by the complexity of the critical patient. Objective: to validate a book of good nursing practices in intensive care for patient safety. Method: methodological triangulation by criteria of 20 experts by the Delphi method and pre-experiment with entrance and exit test in the Intensive Care Unit of the General Teaching Hospital "Octavio de la Concepcion y de la Pedraja" of Baracoa, Guantanamo, since 2016 to 2017. Results: the general consensus of the experts was "very much in agreement" for the foundations that support patient safety in good nursing practices in the ICU and the quality of the proposed book. The qualifications of the nursing procedures of the exit test, corresponding to the pre-experiment, were significantly higher than the entrance tests. Conclusions: the book of good nursing practices in the ICU for patient safety is accepted as valid and feasible.
