Nursing diagnosis in older adults with chronic kidney disease on hemodialysis
ABSTRACT Objective: To identify the main nursing diagnoses (NSs) in older adult patients under hemodialysis treatment. Method: Exploratory research using case studies in data collection performed by interview and physical examination of older adults, in the first semester of 2016. Were included twenty-eight older adults undergoing chronic hemodialysis treatment who met the selection criteria. The analysis followed two steps (RISNER, 1990): Phase I - Data analysis and synthesis; and Phase II - Establishment of nursing diagnoses using the taxonomy of NANDA-I (2015). Results: The total of NSs was 110, averaging 3.9 per patient. It was listed seven different NSs, and both the Risk of infection and the Volume of excessive liquids appeared on all patients (28; 100%), and risk of electrolyte imbalance, in 26 (96.8%) older adults, being considered as main NSs. Conclusion: Such results can help systematize the care of older people who are undergoing hemodialysis treatment.
