NURSING CARE MODEL FOR PATIENTS IN EARLY POSTOPERATIVE OF MYOCARDLAL REVASCULARIZATION

Abstract

The development of models of care is a fundamental point of support for the context and development of the nursing practice. One of the recent proposals is that posed by Fawcett, which includes three components: theoretical, structural and functional. This proposal has been selected for the implementation of this model, using Retroinduction logic methodology. Objective: To design a model of nursing care for patients in the early postoperative period (48-96 h) of a coronary artery bypass graft. The theoretical component was based on Paterson and Zderad's humanistic theory and strengthened by philosophical anthropology. The structural component took into account the concepts included in the Nursing metaparadigm: the person, the environment, health and nursing, as well as the central concepts of the model: clinical event requiring nursing care, situation requiring nursing care and early postoperative patient of myocardial revascularization. Finally, the functional component includes a care proposal previously developed. This proposal opens a new possibility of improving the conditions of patients during early postoperative period. In conclusion, Nursing should continue the development of similar activities that contribute and help enrich their own knowledge.
