Abstract

Objective: to translate and adapt the Critical Nursing Situation Index for the Brazilian culture. Method: methodological study
that used the stages of translation, synthesis of translations, back-translation, evaluation by committee of judges and pre-test with the
participation of 30 nurses. Performed in the period from August 2016 to April 2017 in an Intensive Care Unit in the city of Campinas-SP.
Results: the Brazilian version of the instrument was obtained. Assessment of semantic, idiomatic, cultural and conceptual equivalence by
the committee resulted in a concordance rate ≥80%. Of the 84 items that comprise the instrument, four underwent modifications. The mean
completion time of the instrument in the pre-test stage was 16.7 minutes (Standard deviation ±7.4). Conclusion: The methodological process
of translation and cultural adaptation of the Critical Nursing Situation Index was completed successfully, and the instrument presented a
satisfactory degree of global comprehension and applicability.
