Abstract

Objective: This work aimed to determine the validity and reliability of the Colombian Spanish version of the Nursing Delirium Screening Scale (Nu-DESC).

Methods: A psychometric study was conducted to achieve the goal of this study, which measured face validity, content validity, sensitivity, specificity and predictive values of the Nu-DESC.

Results: . Face validity obtained a total Aiken V of 0.89, and content validity showed a modified Lawshe index of 0.92. When Nu-DESC was applied to 210 adult patients hospitalized in the Intensive Care Unit, it was found that 14.2% had suspected delirium. The instrument showed a sensitivity of 91.6%, specificity of 95.6%, positive predictive value of 73.3%, negative predictive value of 98.8%, good internal consistency with Cronbach's α of 0.8 and good concordance according to Cohen's Kappa index of 0.788.

Conclusion: The Spanish version of the Nu-DESC scale for Colombia has appropriate psychometric values for assessing delirium risk. In addition, this scale is easy to apply, so the adaptation of nursing personnel for its employability favors routine monitoring and timely detection of delirium.

护理评估量表对早期诊断谵妄的西班牙语验证-Nu DESC

客观的这项工作旨在确定哥伦比亚-西班牙版本的护理性谵妄筛查量表（Nu DESC）的有效性和可靠性。方法。为了达到本研究的目的，进行了一项心理测量研究，测量了Nu-DESCs的面部有效性、内容有效性、敏感性、特异性和预测值。后果人脸有效性的Aiken V总分为0.89，内容有效性的Lawshe指数为0.92。当Nu-DESC应用于210名在重症监护室住院的成年患者时，发现14.2%的患者有疑似谵妄。该仪器的敏感性为91.6%，特异性为95.6%，阳性预测值为73.3%，阴性预测值为98.8%，与Cronbachα的内部一致性为0.8，根据Cohen’s Kappa指数的一致性为0.788。结论西班牙版的哥伦比亚Nu DESC量表具有评估谵妄风险的适当心理测量值。此外，该量表易于应用，因此护理人员对其就业能力的适应有利于对谵妄进行常规监测和及时检测。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
