Sumari: | Introduction: The constant technological advances present in the health area make it possible to improve practices in obtaining images of the different anatomical regions. The elderly population is a major consumer of health services and resources to support diagnosis and therapy. One of the most used technologies is computed tomography, a technique widely used for providing high-resolution images of the human body, however such a technique is not without risks. Given the above, this research aimed at the elaboration and validation of a care protocol in computed tomography, focusing on the elderly, being justified by the weaknesses present in the process of carrying out the exam. Objectives: To build and validate an assistance protocol for elderly patients undergoing computed tomography and to outline the service profile developed at the study institution. Methodology: Methodological research, with a quantitative and qualitative approach segmented in four stages: identification of the characteristics of the elderly about age, sex and anatomical area indicated in the examination, analysis of the flow of the elderly care process in the service of support for diagnosis and therapy by through the technique of nonparticipant observation, construction of the care protocol and validation with expert participants. Quantitative data were organized and analyzed using Microsoft Excel software and analyzed statistically in the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences. The protocol validation used the Content Validity Index (CVI). Results: Data were obtained regarding the profile of the patients seen at the service, totaling 3,636, drawing a flowchart of care, elaborating a care protocol and validating it with specialist professionals. Skull images were the most prevalent (51.8%). The CVI obtained by the experts' validation in the first round resulted in an agreement of 98% and in the second round, after descriptive suggestions, obtained a CVI of 100%. Final considerations: In view of the data obtained through the selected methodology, there was the construction and validation of the care protocol for the elderly submitted to computed tomography. |
