ABSTRACT
Introduction: Patient falls during hospitalization are profiled as one of the adverse events that directly cause most damage to the person, such as sequelae and disabilities.Objective: To propose a methodology for the protocolization of nursing actions in the registry and notification of falls in hospitalized patients.
Methods: A technological development research was carried out at Hermanos Ameijeiras Surgical Clinical Hospital, from October 2016 to January 2017. Ten experts selected through established criteria participated, all of whom had a high level of competence. As theoretical methods, analysis-synthesis, induction-deduction, system approach and modeling were applied; as empirical, the Delphi method was used. The analysis of documentary sources and the processing of expert opinions proposed in the Delphi method were used.
Results: The methodology was structured in seven moments (flow chart), with duly delimited steps for recording and reporting falls in patients in the hospital context. For assessment and control, structure, process and results indicators were established.
Conclusions: The methodological proposal designed becomes a reference of structure and content for the protocolization of nursing actions in the registry and notification of falls in hospitalized patients. The proposed elements were based on the consensus of experts and the best scientific evidence.
