Introduction:
The postpartum period is considered a phase of many physiological and hormonal changes that affect the individual. Fatigue is something present and can influence the postpartum woman in a negative way. In this way, the nurse has an essential role, and the nursing process can be used to establish an efficient care plan.
Objective:
To present the main nursing interventions and activities of the nursing diagnosis (ND) fatigue (00093) in individuals/people in the immediate postpartum period obtained through an integrative literature review and correlate with the proposed ND puerperal fatigue/excessive burden of fatigue in the postpartum period.
Methods:
Integrative literature review, carried out in the databases Cochrane, Scopus and Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System Online (MEDLINE), Web of Science (WoS), Virtual Health Library (VHL), and Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature (CINAHL), following rigorous methodological standards.
Results:
Six articles were included that identified the main nursing interventions related to the proposed ND puerperal fatigue.
Conclusions:
The integrative review highlighted the main nursing interventions and activities, and this study will be the basis for the next stages of the validation process for the ND puerperal fatigue/excessive fatigue in the postpartum period.
Implications For Nursing Practice:
This work can help nurses in clinical practice establish an efficient care plan through the most accurate nursing interventions and thus improve the quality of nursing services.
