Abstract
Psychic suffering is typical of the human condition and involves multideterminant factors in its origin, with significant influence from affective-relational-economic issues, invariably marked by negative and positive experiences.
OBJECTIVE
The objective of this study is to describe the process of construction and content validation of a set of nursing actions to integrate a mobile educational technology to assist individuals in psychic distress in primary health care.
METHODS
This was a methodological study in four stages: scope review, qualitative research, elaboration of a set of nursing actions and content validation. It was carried out from December/2022 to December/2023, with 16 Brazilian specialists, a minimum Content Validity Index of 80% and Cronbach's Alpha (α).
RESULTS
Six sets of actions were elaborated and evaluated: nursing actions in the initial assessment of the individual in psychic distress (99% α 0.47); nursing actions towards individuals in psychic distress with complaints associated with Depressive Disorder (93.4% α 0.84); nursing actions towards individuals in psychic distress with complaints associated with Anxiety Disorder (95.4% α 0.88); nursing actions towards individuals in psychic distress with Suicidal Ideation (96.3% α 0.71); nursing actions towards individuals in psychic distress resulting from the use of psychoactive substances (99.6% α 0.77) and; nursing actions towards individuals in psychic distress as a result of grief situations (98.6% α 0.28).
CONCLUSIONS
The set of actions proved to be validated and to have acceptable reliability, thus contributing to supporting the development of educational technology. The conclusions of this research highlight the possibility for nurses to conduct nursing actions in the care of people in psychic distress, in a non-specialized context. In addition, this is a resource to improve the routine mental health care of nurses who work in primary health care.
