- The adequacy of the Q methodology for clinical validation of nursing diagnoses related to subjective FociPublication . Miguel, Susana; Caldeira, Sílvia; Vieira, MargaridaOBJECTIVE: This article describes the adequacy of the Q methodology as a new option for the validation of nursing diagnoses related to subjective foci. METHODS: Discussion paper about the characteristics of the Q methodology. FINDINGS: This method has been used in nursing research particularly related to subjective concepts and includes both a quantitative and qualitative dimension. CONCLUSIONS: The Q methodology seems to be an adequate and innovative method for the clinical validation of nursing diagnoses. IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE: The validation of nursing diagnoses related to subjective foci using the Q methodology could improve the level of evidence and provide nurses with clinical indicators for clinical reasoning and for the planning of effective interventions.

- Cirurgia de cancro de cabeça e pescoço: a especificidade dos cuidados à pessoa com faringostoma e esofagostomaPublication . Pires, Lucinda; Frade, Inês; Almeida, Anabela; Miguel, SusanaTemos como objetivo descrever os cuidados específicos à pessoa com faringostoma e esofagostoma, impulsionadores da melhoria da prática clínica e da qualidade de vida da pessoa. Cirurgias como a laringectomia total induzem enorme impacto físico, social e emocional na pessoa e família, cujas consequências e possíveis complicações são potenciadas quando seguidas da confeção de um faringostoma e esofagostoma. A pessoa com faringostoma e esofagostoma requer cuidados diferenciados que incluem a realização do penso, vigilância e cuidados específicos, não esquecendo os cuida-dos inerentes à ostomia respiratória, bem como a todas as outras dimensões da pessoa (psicológica, social, cultural e espiritual). Perante toda a complexidade cirúrgica, as pessoas portadoras deste tipo específico de estomas carecem de intervenções de enfermagem especializadas, as quais são baseadas na evidência. E incidem em prevenir complicações e contribuir para a qualidade de vida da pessoa, justificando-se igualmente a necessidade de intervenção de toda a equipa multidisciplinar.
- The human responses and nursing diagnoses of head and neck cancer patients: literature review and synthesis of evidencePublication . Miguel, Susana; Zamarioli, Cristina Mara; Carvalho, Emília Campos de; Caldeira, SílviaIntroduction: Head and neck cancer is relatively common with a high morbidity rate due to the anatomical sites that surround and may result in psychosocial, physical, or functional effects. Knowledge about the human responses and the corresponding nursing diagnoses of head and neck cancer patients undergoing surgery, as listed on NANDA-I, seems scarce. Aim: Review the literature on knowledge about the human responses and the corresponding nursing diagnoses of head and neck cancer patients undergoing surgery. Materials and Methods: Integrative literature review with a search on electronic databases: CINALH®, MEDLINE®, Nursing & Allied Health®, and Scopus®. Results: A total of 31 papers were included in this review and 72 human responses, categorized in 29 diagnoses. Most diagnoses are subjective, and the most frequent nursing diagnosis was disturbed body image. Conclusion: Identifying the most frequent human responses of these patients facilitates nurses in providing adequate care and in developing further research aiming to improve diagnoses accuracy. Most diagnoses are subjective, and the clinical validation could improve the level of evidence and provide nurses with clinical indicators for clinical reasoning and effective planning and interventions. Particularly, differential validation is needed in these patients as similar diagnoses and confounding clinical indicators have been identified. Further research is needed to evaluate the subjective nursing diagnoses considering the similarity and specific defining characteristics in head and neck cancer.
