UNIVERSITY OF GENOA - ITALY

BACKGROUND There is evidence that nursing documentation is often weak, and in particular it lacks of a consistent and standardized approach towards educational diagnosis. The documentation of the educational process, and in particular educational diagnosis needs to be structured using appropriate methods and tools .

MATERIALS AND METHODS The indicators were identified through the literature, and then categorized and assembled together to develop an educational diagnosis chart on the “Motivation of the enterostoma patients’ needs”. Factor analysis was used to measure the construct validity of the chart on “Motivation”.

AIM

The development of an educational diagnosis chart on the “Motivation” of the enterostoma patients’ needs

CONCLUSIONS The validation of this new educational diagnosis chart will encourage nurses to adopt a consistent and standardized approach in the assessment of patients’ stoma care educational needs.

RESULTS

We developed an educational diagnosis tool for enterostoma patients and their caregivers (n=104).

The level of agreement between patients and caregivers was high in relation to the choice of the

stoma device (K= .717), and fair in relation to appropriate behaviour in managing inflammation

(K= .549).

The analysis of the main items of the first part of the questionnaire focusing on “the motivation of patients’ needs”, reduced the 17 variables into

three factors: autonomy;

social-relational; and patient empowerment.
