The influence of nursing assistance on the children admitted one or two days before surgery.

RESUMO

O autor apresenta um estudo sobre o valor do cuidado de enfermagem para diminuir a ansiedade da criança e auxiliar sua adaptação à situação hospitalar, quando o período de hospitalização é de curta duração.

Foi feito um estudo comparativo entre 21 crianças do grupo experimental, que receberam cuidados especais envolvendo brinquedos e outros relacionamentos afetivos, desde admissão até a alta hospitalar, e 17 crianças do grupo de controle, que receberam os cuidados comuns do hospital.

Os dados indicam que as crianças que receberam cuidados especiais de enfermagem adaptaram-se mais facilmente à situação hospitalar.

SUMMARY

The author presents a study of the results of "experimental" nursing care directed toward minimizing anxiety of children undergoing short term hospitalization, and their adaptation to the hospital situation.

A comparative survey was made between 21 children of the experimental group, who had special nursing care involving play and other affectional relationships and 17 children of the control group who were assisted according to common hospital procedures. The study was carried out from admition to discharge.

The findings indicated that the children receiving experimental nursing care adapted better to the hospital situation.
