El desarrollo de la enfermera de práctica avanzada (EPA) ha supuesto un reto para las enfermeras en países como EE.UU., Canadá, Gran Bretaña y Australia, entre otros, y desde hace escasos años está siendo considerada en Catalunya y España como un sistema para desarrollar nuevos roles que aporten eficacia y eficiencia al sistema sanitario. El presente artículo pretende conceptualizar la EPA y los modelos de referencia así como contextualizar y reflexionar sobre la EPA en Catalunya, desde el punto de vista de formación y de la implantación de los denominados nuevos roles de enfermería, asimilándolos a la práctica avanzada.

The development of advanced practice nurses (APN) has proved a challenge for nurses in countries such as the USA, Canada, Great Britain, and Australia among others. It is only in recent years that the system has been considered in Catalonia and Spain as a way to develop new roles to bring effectiveness and efficiency to the health system. From the standpoint of training and implementation of the above-mentioned new nursing roles, the following article aims to conceptualise APN and its reference models, as well as to contextualise and reflect on APN in Catalonia in order to assimilate them into advanced practice.

Objective:
to unveil women’s existential movement after cardiac surgery.
Method:
qualitative phenomenological study. The research setting was a hospital in Minas Gerais, in which ten women were interviewed between December 2011 and January 2012.
Results:
after hospital discharge, the women experienced physical, social and emotional impairments, and expressed the desire to go back to the time before their diagnosis, because they felt as though they still had heart disease. This vague and average understanding led to three units of meaning that, from a Heideggerian hermeneutic point of view, revealed the phenomenon of cardiac surgery as a present circumstance that limited the participants’ daily lives.
Conclusion:
nurses supporting women patients after cardiac surgery should promote health considering existential facets that are expressed during care. The bases for comprehensive care are revealed in singular and whole meetings of subjectivity.
