Clinical Trial Summary

This study will assess the effect of an educational nursing intervention in adults to promote dengue control and prevention behaviors, in comparison with the usual strategy of a health service provider institution. The intervention uses the Nola Pender Health Promotion Model as a theoretical framework. Findings will be assessed using the nursing outcomes "risk control" and "participation in health care decisions" from the Nursing Outcomes Classification (NOC).

Description:

Annually, there are 390 million cases of dengue, mostly due to the inadequate application of sanitary behaviors in the management and control of the vector, having as background the lack of knowledge of the population in the appropriation and incorporation of sanitary measures in the different environments. In addition to the cognitive and behavioral component, dengue has cultural, political, social and economic causes.

The evidence indicates that, from health education, educational interventions have been developed to reduce the disease, but most of them have not been carried out in rural areas following a theoretical framework that guides the intervention that leads to an impact on health promoting behaviors.

The use of the NOC results makes it possible to visualize the impact of nursing care and constitute scientific support for the advancement of the nursing discipline.
