Full textAgitation is a distressing set of behaviors frequently observed in emergency department psychiatry patients. Key to developing and evaluating treatment strategies aimed at decreasing and preventing agitation is the availability of a reliable, valid instrument to measure behaviors representative of agitation. Currently, an agitation rating instrument appropriate for use in the emergency setting does not exist and clinicians are left without standard language for communicating about the phenomenon. The Agitation Severity Scale was developed to fill this void using facilitated focus groups to generate an initial item pool. Beginning evidence of content validity was established through a survey of clinical providers and a panel of content experts. The objectives of this methodological study were to: (a) develop an observation-based rating scale to assess the continuum of behaviors known as agitation in adult emergency department patients, and (b) to evaluate the psychometric properties of the newly developed instrument. Psychometric evaluation was conducted using a sample of 270 emergency department psychiatric patients. A 17-item instrument with a standardized Cronbach's alpha coefficient of 0.91 resulted, providing evidence of a high degree of internal consistency reliability. Principle components analysis revealed a 4-component solution accounting for 69% of observed variance. Internal consistency reliability ranged from 0.71 to 0.91 for the scale components. Equivalence reliability was established through the evaluation of Agitation Severity Scores assigned by independent evaluators, r = 0.99, &kappa = 0.98. Construct validity was established through comparison of mean scores for subjects in the highest and lowest scoring quartiles. A statistically significant difference in scores was noted when comparing these groups, t = -17.688, df = 155, p < 0.001. Convergent validity was evaluated by testing the association between Agitation Severity Scores and scores obtained using a well-established instrument, the Overt Agitation Severity Scale. Pearson's correlation coefficient for the associations between the scores ranged from 0.91 to 0.93, indicating a strong, positive relationship between the scores. Finally, the Rasch measurement model was employed to further evaluate the functioning of the instrument. In sum, the Agitation Severity Scale was found to be reliable and valid when used to measure agitation in the emergency setting

Full textSyftet var att beskriva och jämföra en expertgrupp och intensivvårdssjuksköterskors överensstämmelse i att detektera delirium hos intuberade, respiratorbehandlade patienter med sedering/analgesi, före och efter en utbildningsintervention med instrumentet Confusion assessment method for the intensive care unit (CAM-ICU). Metod: En kvasiexperimentell studie, en grupps pretest – posttest design. Ett bekvämlighetsurval på en allmän intensivvårdsavdelning där inkluderades 17 intensivvårdssjuksköterskor. För att detektera delirium användes instrumentet CAM-ICU, 21 parmätningarna före och 22 efter en utbildningsintervention. Huvudresultat: Resultatet visade att efter utbildningsinterventionen förbättrades sensitiviteten och kappa koefficienten i kännetecken 1 ”akut insättande eller fluktuerande förlopp”, en förbättring som var signifikant. I övriga kännetecken och totalvärden fanns tecken på numerär förbättring och försämring i sensitivitet, specificitet och kappakoefficient men ingen signifikant förändring. Slutsats: Att implementera ett nytt instrument för att detektera delirium i klinisk verksamhet kräver utbildning och uppföljning. Ett litet sample av intensivvårdssjuksköterskor med varierad förmåga att använda det nya instrumentet samt det faktum att patienters status hastigt kan förändras gör det svårt att dra några slutsatser av denna studie. Klart är dock att utbildning och uppföljning behövs när nya vårdrutiner införs, och att ytterligare studier behövs för att klargöra om CAM-ICU är ett valit och reliabelt instrument att använda i klinisk verksamhet.

Full textObjectives The Cohen-Mansfield Agitation Inventory (CMAI; (Cohen-Mansfield and Kerin, 1986)) is a well-known tool for assessing agitated behaviours in people with dementia who reside in long-term care. No studies have evaluated the psychometric qualities and factor structure of the CMAI in acute general hospitals, a setting where people with demand may become agitated. Method Longitudinal study investigating pain, agitation and behavioural problems in 230 people with dementia admitted to acute general hospitals in 2011–2012. Cohen-Mansfield Agitation Inventory was completed as part of a battery of assessments including PAINAD to measure pain. Results A nine-item two-factor model of aggressive and nonaggressive behaviours proved to be the best-fitting measurement model in this sample, (χ2 = 96.3, df = 26, p<0.001; BIC [Bayesian Information Criterion] = 4593.06, CFI [Comparative Fit Index] = 0.884, TLI [Tucker Lewis Index] = 0.839, RMSEA [Root Mean Square Error of the Approximation] = 0.108). Although similar to the original factor structure, the new model resulted in the elimination of item 13 (screaming). Validity was confirmed with the shortened CMAI showing similar associations with pain as the original version of the CMAI, in particular the link between aggressive behaviours and pain. Conclusion The factor structure of the CMAI was broadly consistent with the original solution although a large number of items were removed. Scales reflecting physical and verbal aggression were combined to form an Aggressive factor, and physical and verbal nonaggressive behaviours were combined to form the Nonaggressive factor. A shorter, more concise version of the CMAI was developed for use in acute general hospital settings. Copyright © 2017 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Forbes, Mary Therese Potter. "Constructing trust in acute inpatient mental healthcare facilities : the role of physical, social and symbolic environments of care in supporting therapeutic safety." Thesis, 2017. http://hdl.handle.net/10453/116772.
Full textThis multi-method, multi-case study was a philosophically pragmatic and realist inquiry into how the physical habitat/material environment supports or hinders the creation of therapeutic safety in acute inpatient mental healthcare facilities. The literature review indicated that trust is integral to therapeutic relationships but acts of trust were unlikely without manifest organisers and signifiers of trustworthiness. The Constructing Trust Model that emerged from the review postulated that the Environmental Determinants of Care, comprised of physical, social and symbolic elements, moderated therapeutic trust in the development of safety. The Determinants were incorporated into James Reason’s (1995) Swiss Cheese Model of Accident Causation to illustrate how environments emphasizing surveillance and technical safety do not create therapeutically safe environments but introduce latent error, leading to patient harms such as violence, seclusion and sanctuary harm. Four sites were purposively selected for participation in the study. Initial site visits were made to three newly commissioned facilities and data were collected using key informant interviews, document and artefact analysis. Alterations were made at the fourth site, including: acoustic dampening, wall murals, gardens, increased circulation space, new colour scheme, and new outdoor furniture. Data collection also included focus groups, a safety climate survey, spatial data, incident data and seclusion data. The frequency and duration of seclusion was reduced during renovations. Staff reported consumers found the work a welcome distraction, providing hope that a poor environment would be much improved. On completion staff reported reduced patient agitation, increased patient satisfaction, and fewer incidents of vandalism. Seclusion practices, however, soon reverted. Funding was not provided for changes to address environmental problems known to be linked to seclusion use, that is, overcrowding and social density. Three major findings emerged in the cross-case analysis. Firstly, participants held dichotomous beliefs about safety. I labelled those who viewed safety as arising from the control of concrete hazards requiring custodial environmental designs, ‘Risk Warriors’, and those who considered trusting relationships the precursor to safety, requiring environments signifying care, trustworthiness and refuge, ‘Trust Advocates’. Secondly, at all four facilities decision-makers did not follow the advice of Trust Advocates and introduced unintended risk into the care system, creating the latent conditions for iatrogenic harm. Thirdly, collocation of acute inpatient mental healthcare facilities on general hospital sites encouraged the cultural dominance of Risk Warriors, leading to an over-emphasis on surveillance and the control of risks, to the detriment of trust development strategies and therapeutic safety.
