Abstract(s)
Introdução: A demência é uma doença crônica e progressiva caracterizada por um declínio cognitivo significativo. Esta condição conduz usualmente à perda de autonomia e independência. Assim sendo, o mesmo necessita de ser acompanhado diariamente por alguém que assuma os seus cuidados num contexto domiciliário. A vida recorda-nos a inevitabilidade da morte. Para o cuidador informal, cuidar de uma pessoa com demência é uma tarefa muito exigente em que ao assumir este papel, enfrenta o desafio da morte do cuidador, podendo por consequência experienciar sentimentos de perda e de luto. Objetivo: Obter evidências científicas sobre as intervenções de enfermagem no processo de luto dos cuidadores informais de pessoas com demência. Metodologia: É conduzida uma revisão sistemática da literatura de acordo com os princípios do Joanna Briggs Institute, de estudos publicados entre janeiro de 2015 e março de 2023, presentes nas bases de dados B-on, Ebsco e RCAAP recorrendo à questão PICO. Foram utilizados os instrumentos da JBI para avaliação metodológica dos estudos. Resultados: No presente estudo foram incluídos 7 artigos por cumprirem os critérios de inclusão. Os resultados sugerem que a presença do enfermeiro tem um papel facilitador do processo de luto, pondo em prática intervenções variadas na área. Conclusão: Esta pesquisa permitiu-nos estabelecer um perfil do enfermeiro e assim intervir no sentido de melhorar as suas capacidades e habilidades nos comportamentos e atitudes a adotar na tarefa de cuidar.
Introduction: Dementia is a chronic and progressive disease characterized by significant cognitive decline. This condition usually leads to loss of autonomy and independence. Therefore, needs to be daily monitored by someone able to provide domestic support services. Life often reminds us of the inevitability of death, specially for the informal caregiver, who is constantly dealing with death or mourning. Caring for a person with dementia is a very demanding task in which, people that assume this role, face the challenge of the death of care, and may consequently experience feelings of loss and mourning. Objective: To obtain scientific evidence on nursing interventions in the grieving process of informal caregivers when taking care of people with dementia. Methodology: A systematic literature review is conducted according to the principles of the Joanna Briggs Institute. Studies published between January 2015 and March 2023, presented in the B-on, Ebsco and RCAAP databases recurring to the PICO question. JBI instruments were used for the methodological evaluation of the studies. Results: In this study, 7 articles were included because they met the inclusion criteria. The results suggest that the presence of the nurse has a facilitating role in the grieving process, putting into practice the empirical and scientific knowledge about the health and care area. Conclusion: This research allowed us to establish a nurse's profile and thus intervene in order to encourage and improve one's abilities regarding the behaviors and attitudes to be adopted in the task of caring.
