Resumen
CASTELO-RIVAS, Walter Patricio; GARCIA-VELA, Sandy Valeria y VINAN-MOROCHO, Josselyn Belén. Humanized nursing care for patients with diabetic foot at the General Hospital Santo Domingo- Ecuador. AMC [online]. 2020, vol.24, n.6 Epub 01-Dic-2020. ISSN 1025-0255.
Background:
human care is the basis of nursing, for this reason it must be viewed holistically. Patients with diabetic foot with or without treatment acquire damages such as amputations and emotional disturbances such as depression, so the nurse must look at the patient in a bio-psychosocial way, contributing to the improvement of their health, providing security to both the patient and to the institution, making him feel safe and leading him to have good adherence to treatment.
Objective:
to determine the quality of humanized care from the perception of patients diagnosed with diabetic foot.
Methods:
a descriptive cross-sectional design study was carried out with a quantitative approach applying a deductive method in the Comprehensive Care Unit for Diabetic Foot of the General Hospital Santo Domingo- Ecuador, with a population of 50 patients who wished to participate and signed informed consent for the respective sample. The instrument of the 3rd version PCHE questionnaire consisting of 32 questions was applied, which was adapted according to the study variables.
Results:
the quality of humanized care based on the perception of patients with diabetic foot is positive in 92-94% consider that there is adequate communication between the patient nurse, but there is still a deficit of certain characteristics for the care to be human in its entirety.
Conclusions:
the patient’s humanized care by the nursing staff is positive regarding its services, however, there is still a deficit of certain characteristics for the care to be human in its entirety.
