PALLIATIVE CARE AND ITS RELATIONSHIP WITH THE NURSING DIAGNOSES OF NANDA-I AND NIC TAXONOMIES

Objective: to identify which nursing diagnoses of the North American Nursing Diagnosis Association Internacional (NANDA-I) taxonomy described or indicated in the scientific productions are related to patients in palliative care and which are the most appropriate nursing interventions according to the Nursing interventions classification (NIC). Method: an integrative review of the literature, which consists of the construction of a comprehensive literature review, with the initial purpose of obtaining an understanding of a given phenomenon based on previous studies. Results: a survey of the studies related to the subject was carried out in bibliographic sources through three computerized systems. Of the articles found, only ten made possible the identification of Nursing Diagnostics, or their inference. These diagnoses were counted and related to the most appropriate interventions according to the literature. Conclusion: little expressive scientific production was identified, but it was still possible to identify diagnoses and diagnostic inferences that allowed to determine which nursing interventions would be the most adequate.
