Ineffective health management in people with hypertension: Accuracy study.

PURPOSE
To analyze the accuracy of the clinical indicators of the nursing diagnosis Ineffective Health Management in people with hypertension.


METHODS
This is a cross-sectional diagnostic accuracy study. The ineffective health management was investigated in 120 people with hypertension in a referral public outpatient clinic in Brazil between August and November 2020. The accuracy measures were analyzed using Rasch analysis, considering the difficulty of clinical indicator and person's ability.


RESULTS
Ineffective health management is probably present in 37.5% of people with hypertension. 'Failure to include treatment regimen in daily living' was the clinical indicator with the highest sensitivity value, and 'failure to take action to reduce risk factor' had the highest specificity value.


CONCLUSIONS
Rasch analysis demonstrated that all clinical indicators contribute significantly to estimating the presence of ineffective health management in people with hypertension in the outpatient scenario.


IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSING PRACTICE
This research contributes by providing accurate clinical indicators of ineffective health management, helping nurses prescribe and deliver the appropriate nursing interventions for people with hypertension by telenursing.
