CASTRO-MEZA, A.N.; PEREZ-ZUMANO, S.E. y SALCEDO-ALVAREZ, R.A.. Teaching to diabetes patients: Meaning for the professionals of Nursing. Enferm. univ [online]. 2017, vol.14, n.1, pp.39-46. ISSN 2395-8421. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.reu.2016.12.003.
Objective:
To describe the meaning which Nursing professionals have about their teaching to hospitalized patients with diabetes regarding their home care.
Method:
This is a qualitative, phenomenological and descriptive study conducted in a Hospital in Culiacan, Sinaloa. The participants were selected on the basis of theoretical sampling and included nurses working in the services of internal medicine and surgery. Interviews were conducted until data saturation was reached. Regarding the ethical aspects, the principles of beneficence, confidentiality, and respect to the intimacy were considered as well as the participants’ authorization through their informed consent. Data were collected through interviews with semi-structured questions and field notes. The analysis and interpretation was conducted following the De Sousa Minayo proposal which is based on thematic analysis, and includes: organization of data, classification of themes, and final analysis.
Results:
Seven interviews were conducted. In the initial analysis, it was identified that the inter-subjective relation between the nurse and the patient and family can take place in any teaching space. Two categories emerged, one of these being information which the nurse provides which included tree sub-categories: information provided to the patient, information provided to the family, and the moments to do the teaching.
Conclusion:
The findings suggest that there exists a necessity to re-define the role of the nurses regarding their teaching to diabetic patients, and also to consider the importance of the context in the development of this function; all these in order to generate effective educational proposals which can contribute to the improvement of their teaching to these patients.
