Nursing diagnoses in patients with cerebral vascular accident: an integrative review

ABSTRACT

Objective:

to verify the nursing diagnoses in patients affected by CVAs.

Method:

this is an integrative review of the literature. The search was conducted on LILACS, Scielo, Medline, CINAHL, and Scopus databases between February and March 2015, using the following keywords: “Enfermagem”, “Acidente Vascular Cerebral”, “Diagnóstico de Enfermagem”; and “Nursing”, “Stroke”, and “Nursing Diagnosis”.

Results:

we found 9 articles published between 2009 and 2015; most of them were Brazilian, cross-sectional, and exploratory, with a level of evidence of 6. The evidence from the publications was classified as: “Evaluation and validation of specific nursing diagnoses for subjects affected by CVAs” and “Application of the nursing process on subjects affected by CVAs”.

Conclusion:

we noticed the publications focused on nursing diagnoses related to motor disorders, such as risk of falls and impaired physical mobility. Domains regarding safety/protection (domain 11) and sleep/resting (domain 4) were present in most evaluated publications.
