[Disabled as a result of cerebrovascular accident. Diagnoses, functional ability, and features]
Objective:
To learn the characteristics that our patients disabled by a vascular cerebral accident have, based on their sociological-demographic variables, functional disabilities and most frequent nursing diagnoses.
Material And Methodology:
A descriptive transversal study.
Study Group:
patients suffering from a vascular cerebral accident who are partaking in a program for the disabled in two Basic Health Zones in Marbella.
Results:
There were 86 patients suffering from a vascular cerebral accident which means they compose 23% of the disabled patients in this program. Regarding these patients, we obtained their demographic traits, information about their living conditions, and their functional capacity for everyday life activities as well as their corresponding nursing diagnoses.
Comments:
To determine those problems and areas of need which to a higher frequency affect our patients suffering from a vascular cerebral accident will allow us to better detect and plan our action strategies by means of developing standardized treatment plans which guarantee continuity and quality in our treatment. This study was presented orally and received First Prize at the XI Congress and XIV National Conference Days in Vascular Nursing.
