ABSTRACT
Introduction: The Infarct Code (Código Infarto) strategy guarantees early diagnosis and timely treatment of patients with acute myocardial infarction. In this strategy, the nursing professional bases his interventions in collaboration with the multidisciplinary team.Objective: To evaluate the level of clinical competence of the nursing professional in the care of the patient with a primary infarction.
Methods: It was carried out a cross-sectional analytical study in a sample of 57 nurses from the services of Emergency and Cardiac Care Unit. Based on the Infarct Code protocol, three questionnaires and two checklists (these included 42 items) were designed and validated by experts (2/2). We made a descriptive analysis and we also used non-parametric tests.
Results: The level of proficiency was efficient in 74%. With regards to the academic degree and the level of competence, the personnel with technical professional training (35%) were more efficient than the personnel with a bachelor’s degree (28%). The level of competence was correlated with the academic degree and the training (p=‹0.005).
Conclusions: The competence of the nursing professional in the care of the patient with Infarction Code was efficient, due to the timing and the time of the coronary reperfusion.
