Mily Constanza Moreno-Ramos, PhD, MSc, RN, is Enterostomal Therapist and Professor, Nursing Postgraduate Program, Universidade de Guarulhos, São Paulo, Brazil.
Objective:
To realize the cultural adaptation and content validation and evaluate the reliability of the SACS 2.0 instrument in Colombian Spanish.
Methods:
The researchers conducted a methodological study with a quantitative approach. The adaptation process was carried out in five stages: translation, synthesis, reverse translation, evaluation by a committee of experts, and testing of the adapted version. In addition, the interobserver reliability was evaluated by four nurses who examined 210 stomas.
Results:
All of the proposed stages were carried out successfully, and an adapted version of the instrument in Colombian Spanish was obtained. During the content validation stage, the instrument obtained a content validity index of 1. The adapted version of the test showed substantial agreement for the aspect of clarity, adequacy, and understandability. In the interobserver reliability, there was agreement in 95.7% of the evaluations for the classification of the lesions according to the quadrants (κ = 0.97-0.99).
Conclusions:
Authors achieved a culturally adapted, valid, and reliable instrument for the evaluation and classification of peristomal skin alterations in Colombian Spanish.

Sputum culture and sensitivity is a medical procedure used to diagnose bacterial infections in the respiratory tract and select the most appropriate antibiotics for treatment. This process involves analyzing sputum samples of thick and opaque secretions produced in the lungs and airways. These samples are collected from patients and then sent to the laboratory for analysis.
The test can identify various pathogens responsible for respiratory infections, including Streptococcus,...
