Critical Components

AbstractObjective: to analyze and summarize knowledge concerning critical components of interventions that have been proposed and implemented by nurses with the aim of optimizing self-care by heart failure patients.Methods: PubMed and CINAHL were the electronic databases used to search full peer-reviewed papers, presenting descriptions of nursing interventions directed to patients or to patients and their families and designed to optimize self-care. Forty-two studies were included in the final sample (n=4,799 patients).Results: this review pointed to a variety and complexity of nursing interventions. As self-care encompasses several behaviors, interventions targeted an average of 3.6 behaviors. Educational/counselling activities were combined or not with cognitive behavioral strategies, but only about half of the studies used a theoretical background to guide interventions. Clinical assessment and management were frequently associated with self-care interventions, which varied in number of sessions (1 to 30); length of follow-up (2 weeks to 12 months) and endpoints.Conclusions: these findings may be useful to inform nurses about further research in self-care interventions in order to propose the comparison of different modalities of intervention, the use of theoretical background and the establishment of endpoints to evaluate their effectiveness.

Gender and sex differences affect women with kidney failure (KF) negatively at all stages of the disease. This study assessed gender differences in self-care, hemodialysis symptoms, and quality of life in a sample of 102 adult KF patients treated with hemodialysis, from two clinical centers in Mexico. Self-care agency, quality of life, and the symptoms related to hemodialysis were evaluated through questionnaires, and sociodemographic and laboratory variables were obtained from the clinical records. Compared to male patients, female patients reported similar self-care, lower quality of life subscales (symptoms, physical functioning, pain, and overall health), and higher prevalence and intensity of hemodialysis symptoms. There were gender differences regarding the correlation between self-care and quality of life, symptoms intensity, and symptoms prevalence. In conclusion, women with KF treated with hemodialysis perceived a higher impact of hemodialysis and reported a lower quality of life than men. Despite having a similar self-care agency, the self-care correlations with quality of life and hemodialysis symptoms appeared different between men and women treated with chronic hemodialysis. Such differences may be important in future nursing interventions to improve self-care and quality of life among KF patients.

Objective: to apply the nursing process fundament on the Theory of Orem’ Self-care, through the conduct of a report of clinical case, with a patient submitted to bariatric surgery. Methods: this is about a descriptive study, from qualitative approach, report of clinical case type, performed in a patient with morbid obesity, included in Bariatric Surgery Group of a teaching hospital in João Pessoa-PB city. For data collection was used a script adapted to Theory of Orem’ Self-care, which led to the identification of deficits of self-care and therefore to nursing diagnoses. It was then developed the plan of nursing care, with the determination of goals, objectives, method of assistance, type of system and nursing interventions. This study has been approved by the Research Ethics Committee of the Hospital of the Federal University of Paraiba (054/07). Results: from the identification of nursing diagnoses was established and implemented the plan of nursing care with the aim of restoring the patient to prevent postoperative complications, promote recovery and prepare you for the self-care. Conclusion: it is considered that the application of the nursing process, based on Theory of Orem’ Self-care, enabled the provision of assistance and qualified individual, encouraging the patient to participate actively in their treatment, but also to increase their responsibility in the outcome of care.

ABSTRACT Objective: To determine NANDA-I nursing diagnoses and NIC nursing interventions in patients who underwent radical prostatectomy. Method: A cross-sectional and descriptive study was conducted in a research and teaching hospital in western Turkey between June 2016 and June 2017. The sample included adult patients diagnosed with prostate cancer in the immediate postoperative period of radical prostatectomy. Data collection was performed using Gordon’s Functional Health Patterns, NANDA-International and Nursing Interventions Classification Taxonomy Systems. Results: Participants were 54 adult patients. The main nursing diagnoses were in the classes of “physical injury”, “self-care”, “hydration” and “physical comfort”. Some nursing diagnoses were identified in all patients, namely: “risk for deficient fluid volume”, “risk for imbalanced fluid volume”, “impaired urinary elimination”. The most selected NIC interventions were in the classes of “risk management”, “elimination management”, “coping assistance”, “tissue perfusion management” and “self-care facilitation”. Conclusion: future studies with larger populations are needed to explore the nursing diagnoses and effects of nursing interventions on patients who underwent radical prostatectomy.
