Abstract

Patient classification systems generate information for staff allocation based on a patient's care needs. This study aims to test further the instrument for assessing nursing intensity (NI) in perioperative settings. Nine operating departments from five university hospitals were involved. The perioperative nurses gathered data from patients (N = 876) representing different fields of surgery. Reliability was tested by parallel classifications (n = 144). Also, the users' (n = 40) opinions were surveyed. The results support the predictive validity and interrater reliability of the instrument. The nurses considered the instrument feasible to use. The patients' low ASA class did not automatically signify low NI; however, high ASA class was more frequently associated with high intraoperative NI. Intraoperative NI indicated the length of the postanaesthesia care and the type of the follow-up unit. Parallel classifications ensured the homogenous use of the instrument. The use of the instrument is recommended.

围手术期护理强度评估工具的标准有效性、可靠性和可行性。

患者分类系统可根据患者的护理需求为人员分配提供信息。本研究旨在进一步测试围手术期护理强度（NI）评估工具。五所大学医院的九个手术部门参与了这项研究。围手术期护士收集了来自不同手术领域的患者（N = 876）的数据。通过平行分类（n = 144）测试了可靠性。此外，还调查了用户（n = 40）的意见。结果表明，该工具具有预测有效性和交互可靠性。护士们认为该工具易于使用。患者的 ASA 分级低并不自动意味着 NI 低；但 ASA 分级高更经常与术中 NI 高相关。术中 NI 表示麻醉后护理的时间长短和随访单位的类型。平行分类确保了仪器的统一使用。建议使用该仪器。
