Abstract
Objective: To identify in the scientific literature nursing diagnoses for patients with HIV/AIDS. Methods: This was an integrative review of literature carried out in the databases Virtual Health Library, Lilacs, SciELO, PubMED, CINAHL, between June and July 2014. The following descriptors were used: Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome, Safe Sex, HIV, Nursing Diagnosis and Nursing Care. After a refined search, the articles were selected based on inclusion and exclusion criteria and underwent analysis and standardization. A total of four articles were selected in the final review. These articles followed the nomenclature adopted by the North American Nursing Diagnosis Association - NANDA for the establishment of nursing diagnoses. Results: The nursing diagnoses were: Ineffective breathing pattern; risk of impaired skin integrity; impaired religiosity; defensive coping characterized by denial of problems or obvious weaknesses and refusal to get help; risk of powerlessness related to disease and inadequate coping patterns. A total of 24 interventions and 13 expected outcomes were established. Conclusion: Nursing diagnosis guide the development of interventions and outcomes prioritizing the needs of the patient with HIV/AIDS. With this, we note that the nursing process constitutes an essential instrument for effectiveness of an organized nursing care based on basic human needs.
