Resumo: | OBJECTIVE To elaborate and validate an instrument of adherence to treatment for systemic arterial hypertension, based on Item Response Theory. METHODS The process of developing this instrument involved theoretical, empirical and analytical procedures. The theoretical procedures included defining the construct of adherence to systemic arterial hypertension treatment, identifying areas involved and preparing the instrument. The instrument underwent semantic and conceptual analysis by experts. The empirical procedure involved the application of the instrument to 1,000 users with systemic arterial hypertension treated at a referral center in Fortaleza, CE, Northeastern Brazil, in 2012.. The analytical phase validated the instrument through psychometric analysis and statistical procedures. The Item Response Theory model used in the analysis was the Samejima Gradual Response model. RESULTS Twelve of the 23 items of the original instrument were calibrated and remained in the final version. Cronbach’s alpha coefficient (α) was 0.81. Items related to the use of medication when presenting symptoms and the use of fat showed good performance as they were more capable of discriminating individuals who adhered to treatment. To ever stop taking the medication and the consumption of white meat showed less power of discrimination. Items related to physical exercise and routinely following the non-pharmacological treatment had most difficulty to respond. The instrument was more suitable for measuring low adherence to hypertension treatment than high. CONCLUSIONS The instrument proved to be an adequate tool to assess adherence to treatment for systemic arterial hypertension since it manages to differentiate individuals with high from those with low adherence. Its use could facilitate the identification and verification of compliance to prescribed therapy, besides allowing the establishment of goals to be achieved. |

OBJETIVO Elaborar e validar instrumento de avaliação da adesão ao tratamento da hipertensão arterial sistêmica, com base na teoria da resposta ao item. MÉTODOS O desenvolvimento do instrumento envolveu procedimentos teóricos, empíricos e analíticos. Os procedimentos teóricos compreenderam a definição do constructo adesão ao tratamento da hipertensão arterial sistêmica, identificação dos domínios intervenientes e a elaboração do instrumento, seguida da análise semântica e conceitual por peritos. O procedimento empírico englobou a aplicação do instrumento a 1.000 usuários com hipertensão arterial sistêmica, atendidos em um centro de referência em Fortaleza, CE, em 2012. A etapa analítica validou o instrumento por meio da análise psicométrica e dos procedimentos estatísticos. O modelo da teoria da resposta ao item usado na análise foi o da resposta gradual de Samejima. RESULTADOS Doze dos 23 itens do instrumento inicial foram calibrados e permaneceram na versão final. O coeficiente alfa (α) de Cronbach foi de 0,81. Os itens referentes ao uso da medicação quando apresenta algum sintoma e o uso de gordura apresentaram bom desempenho, pois tiveram melhor poder de discriminar os indivíduos que aderem ao tratamento. Deixar de tomar a medicação alguma vez e o consumo de carnes brancas apresentaram menor poder de discriminação. Itens referentes à realização de exercício físico e ser rotina seguir o tratamento não medicamentoso tiveram maior dificuldade de resposta. O instrumento mostrou-se mais apropriado para medir a baixa adesão ao tratamento da hipertensão arterial sistêmica do que a alta adesão. CONCLUSÕES O instrumento mostrou-se adequado para avaliar a adesão ao tratamento da hipertensão arterial sistêmica, pois consegue diferenciar os indivíduos com alta adesão daqueles com baixa adesão. Sua utilização pode facilitar a identificação e aferição do cumprimento à terapêutica prescrita, além de viabilizar o estabelecimento de metas a serem alcançadas. Universidade de São Paulo.
