    ABSTRACT

    Objective:

    to analyze the application of the theory evaluation model proposed by Meleis in Brazilian studies.

    Method:

    integrative review of online articles published from 2002 to 2012 in the databases LILACS and BDENF.

    Results:

    the 16 selected studies confirmed the use of only three of the five stages proposed for Meleis’ theories analysis: Description of the Theory, Criticism of the Theory and Analysis of the Theory, with a predominance of a single unit of analysis in each.

    Conclusion:

    the analysis of nursing theories provides support to nurses in the practice, research, education and administration of the different dimensions of care. Meleis’ model figures as very important by contributing to the development of knowledge of nursing discipline, considering that its use as a method allows several reflections on theories in order that they be revalidated to support a more theoretical and practical applicability.

    ABSTRACT

    Objective:

    to describe the profile of 200 patients with central nervous system tumors (CNST), and the role of the nursing care.

    Method:

    prospective, quantitative and descriptive analysis of medical records of 200 patients with TSNC.

    Results:

    a total of 61% of our patients had benign CNST and 39% had malignant tumors. The extent of patient dependence, according to the Karnofsky Performance Status scale, was significantly greater for patients with malignant CNST (p < .05), indicating that these patients needed more support with their activities of daily living.

    Conclusion:

    patients with CNST need specialized care, with specific guidance regarding their disease and aspects of daily living after treatment. Thus, the nurse can function as a key element for the effectiveness of care provided to patients and family members with the aim of enhancing the quality of life of all those affected, directly or indirectly, by the disease.
