Nursing care and research

The science of nursing is based on an extensive system of theories. Nursing process is the method by which this system applies to the practice of nursing. It is a deliberative approach to problem solving requires cognitive skills and interpersonal skills and is aimed at meeting the needs of the client or family system. The nursing process consists of fi ve successive and interrelated stages: assessment, diagnosis, planning, implementation and evaluation. These phases comprise the intellectual functions of the resolution of the problem in an attempt to defi ne nursing actions. To carry out this process we follow in the model of Virginia Henderson who has made too many contributions to the nursing profession in more than 60 years of service as a nurse, teacher, author and researcher. He applied the process of caring for a male person 35 years of age with a medical diagnosis of subarachnoid hemorrhage secondary to aneurysm rupture of the anterior communicating artery, at the National Institute of Neurology and Neurosurgery Dr. Manuel Velasco Suarez. The majority of intracranial arterial aneurysms are discovered in the adult during a hemorrhagic rupture may be located exclusively in the arachnoid cisterns or associated with intracerebral hematoma.
