ASSISTÊNCIA DOMICILIAR DE ENFERMAGEM AO PACIENTE IDOSO COM SONDA VESICAL DE DEMORA EM UM SERVIÇO DE ATENÇÃO DOMICILIAR

Abstract

The Mandatory Internship in Health Service Networks is an essential component of the Nursing degree to improve the pre-existing care skills and management skills inherent to the exercise of the profession, in addition to correlating in practice the teaching-learning obtained throughout the course and strengthen the bond between academics and the field of work. A study points out that “the Supervised Curricular Internship (ECS) enables the development of critical reasoning, communication, leadership and decision-making skills in the real world of work” (ESTEVES et al., 2018). Bladder catheterization is an invasive procedure performed on patients with problems with urinary elimination. Urine withdrawal can be performed through an open system or urinary relief catheter, and through a closed system or indwelling urinary catheter (SVD). The use of urinary catheters is a risk factor for the development of Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs). Patients with chronic conditions can have this care provided at home, through a Home Care Service (SAD) that includes a set of actions to prevent and treat diseases, rehabilitation, palliation and health promotion, ensuring continuity of care, contributing for the dehospitalization of patients and has a multidisciplinary team that provides home care.
