    (Murcia: Servicio de Publicaciones de la Universidad de Murcia, 2019) Sousa, Graziele Caroline Cardoso de; Mercês, Nen Nalú Alves das; Silva, Lara Adrianne Garcia Paiano da; Macedo, Alini
    Este estudio tuvo como objetivo identificar, en producciones científicas, las estrategias utilizadas en la gestión del dolor de niños y adolescentes durante el período post trasplante de células-tronco hematopoyéticas. Para ello, utilizó como metodología la revisión integradora de la literatura a partir de las siguientes fuentes de información: MEDLINE, LILACS, ScIELO, BDENF, SCOPUS, Web of Sciencey Plataforma de periódicos CAPES. Se utilizó como descriptores: pain, pain management; pain pediatric; hematopoietic stem cell transplantation; bone marrow transplantation; y las siglas BMT e HSCT. La muestra final fue constituida por siete artículos científicos, a partir de los criterios de inclusión y exclusión. Las estrategias para la gestión del dolor identificadas en los estudios fueron: analgesia controlada por el paciente, analgesia controlada por el cuidador; terapias complementarias, tales como: aromaterapia; fototerapia extra oral con diodos infrarrojos; aplicación de calor; crioterapia; música, juegos, masaje; e indicadores de resultados para medir la eficacia de la gestión del dolor. La conclusión es que las estrategias más eficaces fueron: analgesia controlada por el paciente o cuidador y el indicador de resultados que posibilitó el control del dolor entiempo hábil. Sin embargo, es necesario hacer hincapié en la importancia de invertir en otros estudios para evaluación de la eficacia de dichas estrategias complementarias

    The pain attitudes and beliefs scale for physiotherapists: development and psychometric assessment of the Spanish version among physiotherapy students

    Introduction: Pain might be approached from a biomedical or biopsychosocial perspective. There is a lack of research on the attitudes and beliefs about pain among physiotherapy students. In this context, the Pain Attitudes and Belief Scale for Physiotherapists (PABS-PT) is an instrument widely used from a clinical and educational perspective, but its psychometric properties have not yet been tested in a student-based population. Objective: To develop the Spanish version of the PABS-PT scale and to assess its psychometric properties among students in physiotherapy. Methods: The study was carried out among 103 students in their final years of academic studies in the Degree in Physiotherapy in the University of Murcia (Spain). Sociodemographic and PABS-PT related variables were collected. The instrument was translated into Spanish and tested through factor analysis, internal consistency, test-retest reliability, and known-groups validity. The 95% minimal detectable change of the instrument was also calculated. Results: The factor analysis revealed two factors within the instrument: Biomedical (9 items) and Biopsychosocial (7 items) factors, with Cronbach's alpha values of 0.730 and 0.708, respectively. The Intraclass Correlation Coefficient (3,2) was 0.851 for the Biomedical factor and 0.699 for the Biopsychosocial factor. The minimal detectable changes (95% CI) for the Biomedical and Biopsychosocial factors were 6.01 and 5.56, respectively. The pre-specified hypothesis for the known-groups validity test was met and revealed large effect sizes (d = 1.24). Conclusion: The Spanish version of the instrument PABS-PT-SP covers two factors. It shows satisfactory psychometric properties and it is therefore an effective framework to discriminate between the biomedical and/or biopsychosocial thoughts and attitudes toward pain in physiotherapy.
