Patient comfort
Conditions
Interventions
For the intervention group, composed by 8 participants: nursing care planned with the Solatium software, which assists in following the steps of the Nursing Process (NP), based on the Comfort Theory,
the second and third stages - nursing diagnosis and planning - occurred with the use of the Solatium software to record the information collected and the use of these to establish nursing diagnoses, r
in the second visit the implementation of the nursing interventions took place, with delivery of the care plan generated with Solatium's assistance, as suggested by the fourth phase of the Nursing Pro
Finally, during the third visit, the evaluation of the results, the last phase of the Nursing Process, was carried out, making it possible to verify the possible increase in comfort, also aided by GCQ

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Increased comfort, in the contexts of Physical, Psychoespiritual, Sociocultural and / or Environmental comfort, being able to be of the types relief, tranquility and / or transcendence, verified by means of a Likert type scale, adapted from the operational comfort model developed by Kolcaba in theory, composed of 30 items, which evaluate comfort in all three types (relief, tranquility and transcendence) and in the four contexts (physical, psycho-spiritual, sociocultural and environmental), based on a significant increase (at p <0.05 ) in the pre and post intervention scale scores.;In the intervention group, statistically significant differences were identified in the Physical (p = 0.03) and Psychoespiritual (p = 0.01) contexts. Specifically regarding the types of comfort, a significant difference was observed for the Physical context, in the type of comfort relief (p = 0.04) and transcendence (p = 0.03); for the Psycho-spiritual, in the tranquility type (p = 0.01); and for the Sociocultural, in the type of relief (p = 0.04). Analyzing the global responses to the Scale, there was an increase in comfort, reflected in the increase of 12.00 points in the mean after application of the intervention, a difference that was considered statistically significant (p = 0.02). While in the control group, there was no significant difference between the first and second filling of the scale for any context and type of comfort. As for the overall mean, there was a decrease of 1.11 points in the second filling, which did not represent a statistically significant difference (p = 0.53). | — |
