ABSTRACT
Introduction: Nursing cares and the concept of health-disease have evolved along time because of social, political, and religious factors. There is a demand for nursing professionalization and a transition towards improvement in its interventions with human beings under a bio-psychosocial and spiritual perspective. The aforementioned fact should be based upon a theoretical, scientific and human fact which may assure quality attention and warm care from the specialized nursing care. Objective: To identify altered basic needs in a nursling baby and create a nursing process following Virginia Henderson’s approach. Methodology: It was performed the following actions: election of the nursling infant at the Cardiothoracic Service in the National Institute of Pediatrics (NIP); requirement of mother’s informed consent; extensive literature review for the construction of the theoretical frame; nursing evaluation with the form for the evaluation of basic needs in infants from zero to five years old at the NIP; need hierarchy ranking based upon Virginia Henderson’s Model, creation of nursing diagnosis, planning and execution of specialized interventions under appropriate medical strictness, and the evaluation of results. Conclusions: The nursing process is the ideal method for the timely detection of altered human necessities, which allows establishing specialized interventions that guarantee safe and warm attention in human background.REFERENCES
