DESAFIOS NOS CUIDADOS DE ENFERMAGEM COM O PACIENTE POLITRAUMATIZADO NO CENTRO DE TRATAMENTO INTENSIVO

Abstract

The article's theme is nursing care for polytraumatized patients, which was motivated by the lack of studies on the challenges to general care, lack of training, difficulties in continuing education, structural and resource deficiency in the work environment. The general objective will be to carry out a bibliographical survey of the challenges faced by nursing team professionals in the effective care of polytraumatized patients in the Intensive Treatment Center (ICU). The methodological procedure will be qualitative bibliographical research. To better develop this research, the methodology will be divided into three stages: definition of sources and databases; selection of materials (annals, articles, dissertations and theses); analysis and interpretation of data. The results were a bibliographical survey of the main characteristics of polytraumatized patients admitted to the ICU: the challenges in relation to general care and protocols performed by nursing professionals and nurses, the lack of training, the impacts and difficulties faced by the lack of continued training and the challenges faced by structural and resource deficiencies in the work environment.
