INTRODUCTION

The newborn’s bath (NB) is a practice permeated with expectations, challenges and meanings, in which the puerperal, besides meeting the hygiene needs of the child, promotes comfort, strengthens the bond and interaction between the mother and NB⁽¹⁾. Body hygiene is considered a challenging care, identified as a generator of doubts, due to the influence of cultural and socioeconomic conceptions of families and nursing professionals, who perform the orientations and care^(1-2).

The nursing has used health education activities to the puerperal in order to perform them in a more adequate way and without risk to the baby. The permanence of the binomial in the Joint Neonatal Housing (JNH) is characterized as an important moment to guide the main cares of corporal hygiene and of the bath dispensed to the NB. Directions related to diaper change, hygiene of the umbilical stump, care regarding thermal imbalance at the time of bathing, support and incentive to breastfeeding are topics that should be addressed by the nursing team during the care provided to puerperals in JNH⁽³⁾.

The orientation of the first bath must be individual; and the procedure, demonstrated step by step to the puerperal, minimizing the stress caused to the NB, promoting greater security and link to the binomial. The subsequent baths are performed by the puerperal under supervision of the nursing team in order to clarify doubts and highlight relevant information^(1)).

The maternal training, through the demonstration of the practice of standardized care minimizes the stress caused to the NB, without the occurrence of hypothermia, increased oxygen consumption, respiratory distress and alteration of vital signs. In addition, it promotes the family bond and makes the puerperal more secure to perform them at home^(4-5).

In the literature on the subject, doubts and difficulties were identified regarding the bath of NB^(1-2,5-6). There are reports of parents who were not able to carry out, during the period of hospitalization, the hygiene care (such as bath), because these were developed by the nursing team^(4,7). A study conducted in Portugal describes that the lack of practice or superficial guidance in the hospital environment negatively influences home care⁽⁷⁾. To observe without practicing is not efficient; to evaluate the puerperal as to the correct execution of the cares allows to verify the level of understanding of the provided orientation, that is, if that care was or not interpreted adequately⁽⁷⁾.

The understanding of these aspects and the formulation of routines and protocols based on scientific evidence are essential to direct the execution of such procedure, establishing means for the organization of bath practice, making it safe for the NB in its process of adaptation to extra-uterine life^(7-8).

The purpose of this study is the construction and validation of an instrument that contributes and stimulates the adherence to safe practices related to the bathing of the NB, aiming at the improvement in the quality of assistance, the development of maternal autonomy in the care of your child and reflections that instrumentalize the puerperals during the maternity process. The use of checklists in nursing practice contributes to a better communication, less errors due to forgetfulness and allows the identification of fragilities and potentialities⁽⁹⁾, both of professionals and mothers, helping in the planning of orientations directed to the need of that service.

In view of the above, this study sought to answer the research question: What are the variables related to body hygiene in the NB can be an instrument of good practice for nurses to guide puerperals?

OBJECTIVE

Build and validate the content of a good practice tool in the newborn bath.

METHODS

Ethical aspects

The study was approved by the Research Ethics Committee of the Clinical Hospital of the Federal University of the Triângulo Mineiro, through submission to the Brazil Platform; and followed the recommendations of Resolution No. 466/12 of the National Health Council of Brazil.

Design, study site and period

A methodological study whose focus was on the construction and validation of the content of a good practice instrument in the bath of the NB, having been guided by the quality improvement studies-SQUIRE of the EQUATOR network and developed in the JNH unit of a teaching hospital in the state of Minas Gerais, a reference in the care of high complexity and high risk pregnant women. The unit has 14 inpatient beds, divided into six individual wards and four with two beds, with a monthly average of 150 deliveries.

Validating the content of an instrument means evaluating to what degree it measures what it proposes to measure. The validation of content allows the evaluation of clarity, ease of reading, comprehension and gauging of the intended items, proving the phenomenon of interest and the dimension of each item within what is intended to be investigated⁽¹⁰⁾. The theory of measuring instruments involves the composition of three procedures: theoretical, empirical (experimental) and analytical (statistical). The first refers to the creation of the construct, including elaboration of the items and validity of content; the second consists of the steps and techniques of application of pre-test or semantic analysis and pilot test; and the third relates to the statistical analysis used in validation⁽¹¹⁾. In this study, the theoretical and analytical stage of content validation was carried out.

In view of these procedures, three steps were followed (Figure 1⁾) for the eligibility of the construction parameters and instrument validation:

The data collection period for the content validation took place from December 2018 to January 2019.

Population or sample, inclusion and exclusion criteria

The selection of the judges was made through a search in the Lattes Platform of the National Council for Scientific and Technological Development (CNPq) website, considering the following criteria: doctoral degree, scientific production focused on the maternal-infant area and time of performance within the subject under discussion of five years or more. Judges who did not send the instrument in 15 days were excluded. Fifteen judges were invited to participate in the study, of which nine accepted and returned the evaluation in the stipulated period, five did not return in time, and one refused.

Study protocol

In the first stage, for the construction of the instrument, a bibliographic survey was conducted in the following databases: National Library of Medicine, Virtual Health Library, Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature, Scopus Info Site, Cochrane and Web of Science. In August 2018, the purpose was to identify the existing information in national and international literature related to the bath of NB. Studies published in Portuguese, English and Spanish were included, with a five-year timeline (2014 to 2018); and articles in other languages, expert opinion and letter to the editor were excluded. The following question guided this survey: What are the essential cares for the bath of NB?

The descriptors used in the Health Sciences Descriptors (DeCS) were: Newborn, Baths, Joint Housing, Knowledge, Mothers, Maternal Behavior and Mother-Son Relations. In Medical Subject Headings (MeSH), they were: Infant, Newborn*, Baths*, Rooming-in Care*, Knowledge, Mother*, Maternal Behavior*, Mother-Child Relations, with their respective synonyms. The search strategy was conditioned to the minimum combination of the descriptors “Newborn” and “Baths” together with other descriptors. Twenty-eight articles were selected for full reading and extraction of data through Excel® spreadsheet, containing title, author, year, goal, methodological design and outcome.

Through this survey, the 2nd stage - elaboration and construction of the initial instrument for validation, consisting of three parts - was carried out:

Part I (seven questions) - Personal and professional identification of the judges: age, sex, institution in which they work, professional training, degree, sector in which they work and time spent working in maternal and child health.

Part II (22 questions) - Questions on the practice of bathing the NB divided into three areas: care before, during and after the bath. Each item was evaluated on the basis of the Likert type scale, so that each question presented five possibilities for answers to the weightings: I totally disagree, I partially disagree, I partially agree and I totally agree.

Part III (ten questions) - The general analysis of the instrument followed ten requirements: utility/pertinence, consistency, clarity, objectivity, simplicity, feasibility, updating, vocabulary, accuracy, instructional sequence of topics; at the end, the overall score⁽¹⁰⁾. The items of this step were evaluated on a scale from 1 to 10.

In the 3rd step, Google Forms was used to fill out the form in standard Hyper Text Markup Language (HTML) after sending an invitation letter by e-mail, containing the objectives of the study and the link to the Term of Free and Informed Consent along with the instrument to be evaluated. Given the consent to participate by selecting a specific item, the judge had access to the instrument, but if he did not agree to participate, the process was closed. The validation was done in two rounds by the same judges. It should be noted that at the end of each item, there was a blank field for suggestions and changes.

Analysis of results and statistics

For statistical analysis of the validation data, they were extracted from Google Forms and stored in a database in Excel® format, by double input for further validation, processing and analysis. Consistency between judges was analyzed based on the content validity index (CVI), considering a concordance above 80%^(10-11). Suggestions for adjustments have been incorporated into the instrument.

RESULTS

Of the nine judges selected, all were female, nurses; nine (90%) were professors at federal universities; and one (10%) worked in a teaching hospital; they had a nine-year average time in the maternal and child care area.

The first version of the instrument, based on the results of the review, contained 22 items. After analysis of the first round of evaluation by judges, there was agreement among almost all items, and few were the changes.

In question 5 (“Check water temperature with a thermometer”), it was suggested to exclude it, since this is not a routine use in JNH nor in the home of puerperals; however, question 4 (“Check water temperature with the inside of the arm”) was considered. In question 10 (“Hygiene the girl’s genitalia from the anterior part to the posterior part, from the vaginal area to the rectal”) and in question 11 (“Hygiene the boy’s genitalia by washing the penile glans and the body of the penis with clean water”), the terms “genitalia” were replaced by “the intimate part”, “from the anterior part to the posterior part” by “front to back”; and “penile glans” by “the tip of the penis”. Because these two issues deal with actions of the intimate region, it was suggested “To perform intimate hygiene of the girl from front to back, from the vaginal area to the rectal; and of the boy, washing the tip and body of the penis with clean water”.

In question 15, “Dry the umbilical stump with the tip of the diaper towel or gauze”, it was recommended “Dry the umbilical stump with the tip of the diaper towel or gauze or cotton flexible stems and apply 70% alcohol protecting the surrounding skin”. The cotton flexible stems were considered relevant because they are of routine use by families and health professionals. 70% alcohol is part of the unit’s routine guidelines and was recommended by the judges. They suggested the following response options for the instrument: adequate care and inadequate care.

After this evaluation, 20 items were listed to compose the instrument, which was forwarded to the judges in order to reaffirm the changes. There were no divergences, so the issues remained and are presented in Table 1.

DISCUSSION

The construction of instruments in several research areas has become common and has great influence on decisions about care, treatment and/or interventions and on the formulation of health programs and institutional policies^(12-13). However, the scarcity of instruments on the subject motivated the elaboration of this study.

The judges’ concern in contemplating the main stages of the bath in an objective manner and with accessible language resulted in an instrument with 20 items, divided into three domains: care before the bath, during the bath and after the bath.

The Pasquali model used in the construction and validation process has been used in several studies in the field of nursing, allowing delimiting the instrument items with clarity, uniformity and reliability^(13-16).

In the content validation stage, six to 20 judges and a minimum of three for each group of selected professionals are recommended; the use of odd numbers avoids a tie of opinions^(11,13). Therefore, the quantity used in this study was sufficient. As for the response options, the Likert scale allows to evaluate different degrees of agreement and is widely used to measure opinions, beliefs or attitudes⁽¹⁷⁾.

The evaluation through Pasquali’s ten requirements contributes to the reliability and reliability of the instrument, being recommended number above eight⁽¹¹⁾. For reliability among judges, the CVI was used, which has been one of the most used criteria for deciding on the relevance of items, considering as acceptable values above 80%^(16-18).

Regarding the composition of the items, the domain “before the bath” brings care of safety and water temperature. The practice of gathering the necessary materials and leaving them prepared in an adequate place and close to the executor are important measures for the safety of the procedure and of the NB, avoiding situations that predispose the occurrence of accidents^(4,19). The importance of hand hygiene to reduce infections is stressed⁽²⁰⁾.

The bathing place must remain air-conditioned with closed doors and windows to avoid draughts that promote temperature variations in the environment and favor heat loss by the NB, compromising its thermal stability⁽¹⁹⁾. The verification of the water temperature can be performed with the inner part of the arm, area of greater thermal sensitivity, or with a thermometer, when available⁽²¹⁾. The verification of the water temperature can be performed with the inner part of the arm, area of greater thermal sensitivity, or with a thermometer, when available.

The care items during the bath included the actions that must be performed during the procedure. It is recommended to clean the face with clean and soap-free water, before the immersion of the NB in water^(22-23). Eye hygiene should be performed from the inner corner to the outer corner in order to avoid contamination and can be performed with cotton balls moistened with clean water⁽²³⁾. The scalp can be sanitized with the baby wrapped in a diaper towel or at the end of the bath to reduce the impact of hypothermia; it should be washed with water, neutral soap and gentle movements, without rubbing⁽²²⁾.

The contact of the NB with water should occur slowly and gradually to reduce the impact of stress caused by cold⁽²³⁾. The cleaning of the genital region should start in the anteroposterior direction to prevent the dissemination of microorganisms^(19,23).

After bath care items included drying the NB using a clean, dry diaper towel, with gentle compressive movements, to avoid excessive humidity and friction with the skin, favoring cellular integrity and maintenance of the protective function^(24-25). The towel should be close to the bathing area and easily accessible so that the baby is not exposed to temperature variations⁽²⁶⁾.

As for the nostrils and ears, the use of flexible cotton rods should be avoided because of the risk of injuries. Regarding the oral hygiene of the NB, the judges’ evaluation indicated the use of filtered water and moistened gauze to decrease the risk of infections, such as oral candidiasis⁽²⁰⁾.

In relation to the umbilical stump, keeping it only clean and dry has proven effective, since the use of alcoholic substances can cause possible damage to the skin, however this is still a common practice^(27-29). In this study, the application of 70% alcohol was considered important by the judges and is used in the unit investigated. In countries and regions of low income, its use or of 0.5% alcohol chlorhexidine plays an important role in reducing the microbial load and omphalitis^(20,30).

The diaper should be closed below the umbilical stump to allow contact with oxygen, favoring angiogenesis and stimulating the healing process⁽³¹⁾. The use of ointments and emollients in the intact perineum for the prevention of dermatitis is a common practice, although there are no studies that prove its effectiveness when used routinely, considering that the additives of the composition can generate irritation and toxicity when in contact with the skin of the NB^(32-33).

Talking to RN and singing to him while offering the care favors the recognition of the mother as a caregiver, contributing to the safe and healthy bio-psycho-affective development, allowing her greater peace of mind and self-confidence in the execution of the procedure⁽³⁴⁾. Placing the NB to breastfeed soon after the bath stimulates skin to skin contact, strengthening the bond, maintaining the stability of the cardiorespiratory system and reducing stress caused by cold due to the unbalance between production and loss of heat by the NB⁽³⁵⁾.

The period of hospitalization in JNH is usually from 24 to 48 hours, an opportune time to accomplish these orientations, however it must be considered that the new task for the parents can be difficult to assimilate due to the fragility and crying of the baby, which make them insecure and anxious. In this sense, it is suggested the incorporation of educational strategies also during the prenatal period, when there is enough time for them to clear up doubts and carry out simulated trainings⁽²⁾.

Thus, after all the validation stages were completed, the items of the instrument were considered valid in terms of content, because they contemplated the scores recommended by the benchmark adopted in this research⁽¹¹⁾.

Limitations of study

As a limitation, in this study, the empirical phase of the instrument elaboration and factor analysis theory was not carried out at the appropriate time.

Contributions to nursing, health or public policy

The construction and validation of the content of the instrument “Good practices in the bath of the NB” has the contribution of offering a complementary technology to the evaluation of the bath practice and the hygiene care provided to the NB during its stay in JHN, favoring the process of health education carried out with mothers during the immediate puerperium. Furthermore, it will contribute to the improvement of the quality of nursing care provided to the binomial.

CONCLUSION

The study made possible the construction and validation of the content of the instrument “Good practices in the bath of NB”, which approached the necessary steps of its preparation and execution. The agreement among the judges reached the values considered adequate; through the general analysis, it was possible to evaluate the utility/pertinence, consistency, clarity, objectivity, simplicity, feasibility, updating, vocabulary, precision and instructional sequence of the topics, allowing the material produced to be the starting point for other stages of analysis.
