Proceso de atención de enfermería en paciente con aborto séptico basado en la teoría de Marjory Gordon

Abstract

Septic abortion is nowadays a medical, social and economic problem all over the world, due to the influx of patients, the cost of hospital stay is very high and the morbidity and mortality rates are considerable. The objective of this study was to determine the nursing care in a patient with septic abortion, through the review of bibliographic sources and anamnesis of the hospitalized patient, for the development and implementation of a care plan based on the theory of functional patterns proposed by Marjorie Gordon. The methodology for this work was descriptive and analytical, where we searched for scientific information in scientific articles indexed in high impact databases within the health area, which allowed us to know with greater assertiveness the important points about the object of study, we also reviewed the patient's clinical history where reliable information was obtained. Among the arguments made by other authors was that of Rodriguez (2020), who in his study indicates that in women who have never had an abortion, the accuracy of detecting when one is occurring is lower, since the symptomatology is only between 11% and 15%, while when the woman has had an abortion or more, the symptomatology increases notably between 16% and 54%. In this case, the patient was having her first miscarriage, so it was not very detectable at first sight that it was a miscarriage. There are different risk factors that can cause a septic abortion, among these are: age of the pregnant woman, clandestine abortions, socioeconomic level, academic level, etc. The nursing staff must know how to manage the doses of medications in patients with this problem, since the time of administration and the dose to be administered must be correct and at the correct times.
