          Abstract

          RESUMEN Introducción: El clima de seguridad del paciente se refleja en las actitudes y percepciones individuales de los profesionales con respecto a los puntos clave de la seguridad del paciente en la institución. Objetivo: Analizar el clima de seguridad del paciente desde la percepción del equipo de enfermería de las Unidades de Cuidados Intensivos de un hospital privado en Brasil. Métodos: Investigación cuantitativa de diseño descriptivo de corte transversal desarrollada en septiembre de 2020 en tres unidades de un hospital privado de la ciudad de Curitiba, Paraná, Brasil. Los participantes fueron 60 profesionales, 14 enfermeras y 46 técnicos de enfermería, que constituye una muestra no probabilística e intencional. La recopilación de datos se produjo mediante la aplicación de la Safety Attitudes Questionnaire. Los datos recolectados fueron analizados por estadística descriptiva, prueba t de Student y Mann-Whitney. Las puntuaciones ≥ 75% indican una percepción positiva del clima de seguridad. Resultados: El clima medio general de seguridad del paciente fue de 67,63 %. La satisfacción en el trabajo obtuvo la mayor puntuación (76,29 %), mientras que la percepción de la gestión hospitalaria fue la más baja (58,53 %). Las enfermeras presentaron puntuaciones más positivas y con diferencia significativa para “Percepción del manejo en el hospital” (p = 0,022), en comparación con los técnicos de enfermería. Conclusión: El equipo de enfermería percibe debilidades con relación a la gestión, y las acciones estimulantes para reducir las diferencias entre los trabajadores son relevantes para mejorar el clima institucional.

          ABSTRACT Introduction: The patient safety climate is reflected in individual attitudes and perceptions of professionals regarding the key points of patient safety at the institutional level. Objective: To analyze the patient safety climate as perceived by the nursing staff of the intensive care units of a private hospital in Brazil. Methods: A quantitative research with a cross-sectional and descriptive design was developed in September 2020 in three units of a private hospital in Curitiba City, Paraná State, Brazil. The participants were sixty professionals, fourteen nurses and 46 nursing technicians, which made up a nonprobabilistic and intentional sample. Data collection was done through the application of the Safety Attitudes Questionnaire. The collected data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, Student's t-test and Mann-Whitney test. The scores greater than or equal to 75% are indicative of a positive perception about safety climate. Results: The overall mean patient safety climate was 67.63%. Job satisfaction scored the highest (76.29%), while perception of hospital management was the lowest (58.53%). Nurses presented more positive scores and with significant difference for the category "perception of hospital management" (p=0.002), compared to nursing technicians. Conclusion: The nursing staff perceives weaknesses with respect to management, while stimulating actions for reducing differences among workers are relevant to improve the institutional climate.

          The Safety Attitudes Questionnaire: psychometric properties, benchmarking data, and emerging research

          Background There is widespread interest in measuring healthcare provider attitudes about issues relevant to patient safety (often called safety climate or safety culture). Here we report the psychometric properties, establish benchmarking data, and discuss emerging areas of research with the University of Texas Safety Attitudes Questionnaire. Methods Six cross-sectional surveys of health care providers (n = 10,843) in 203 clinical areas (including critical care units, operating rooms, inpatient settings, and ambulatory clinics) in three countries (USA, UK, New Zealand). Multilevel factor analyses yielded results at the clinical area level and the respondent nested within clinical area level. We report scale reliability, floor/ceiling effects, item factor loadings, inter-factor correlations, and percentage of respondents who agree with each item and scale. Results A six factor model of provider attitudes fit to the data at both the clinical area and respondent nested within clinical area levels. The factors were: Teamwork Climate, Safety Climate, Perceptions of Management, Job Satisfaction, Working Conditions, and Stress Recognition. Scale reliability was 0.9. Provider attitudes varied greatly both within and among organizations. Results are presented to allow benchmarking among organizations and emerging research is discussed. Conclusion The Safety Attitudes Questionnaire demonstrated good psychometric properties. Healthcare organizations can use the survey to measure caregiver attitudes about six patient safety-related domains, to compare themselves with other organizations, to prompt interventions to improve safety attitudes and to measure the effectiveness of these interventions.
