The most common nursing diagnoses and interventions in physiological newborn baby
LAPÁČKOVÁ, Zuzana
This bachelor thesis is focused on the most frequent nursing diagnoses and interventions in physiological newborn. First aim was to map the most frequent nursing diagnoses at physiological newborn ward in hospital Nemocnice České Budějovice a.s. Two hypotheses were proposed. H1: The most frequent nursing diagnosis in physiological newborn is ineffective breast-feeding. H2: Nursing diagnoses in physiological newborn will differ in connection to the type of delivery. The second aim was to learn how the nurses and midwives decide on nursing diagnoses, aims and interventions. The research question posed for this aim was: How are nursing diagnoses, aims and nursing interventions decided in physiological newborns? A combination of qualitative and quantitative research was used in order to obtain quality data. Its collection was conducted through nursing documentation analysis and in-depth half-structured interviews. This research was conducted in March 2015 at Physiological newborn ward at hospital Nemocnice České Budějovice a.s. The interviews were analysed by open coding using pen and paper method. Individual codes were collected into subcategories and then categories.The first research group comprised of 5 paediatric nurses and 1 midwife working at the physiological newborn ward of České Budějovice hospital aged 26 to 46. The second research group consisted of 107 physiological infants born either naturally or by caesarean section. The answers of the respondents show their general knowledge about nursing diagnosis but also about some shortcomings in their de termination. Insufficient knowledge was found regarding stating aims and interventions due to the midwives and nurses trusting predefined nursing diagnoses, aims and interventions most often used at the ward and usually choose from them. Nursing diagnoses were also found the same for infants born to first-time mothers and multigravidas and the generally most frequent diagnosis is ineffective breast-feeding. Obtained results can serve as basis for simplification of working with nursing diagnoses and preventing making mistakes in the determination. Considering the insufficiencies in determination of nursing diagnoses, aims and interventions found in the nurses and midwives, we suggest they use this work as model basis. The research results also show that the most frequent nursing diagnosis is ineffective breast-feeding. A form for expecting mothers, that can simultaneously function as educational material was created as a response to the results. We hope this form will enable easier determination of nursing diagnoses and interventions.
