Avaliação do conhecimento da assistência hemoterápica dos enfermeiros e residentes de enfermagem no serviço de oncologia do Hospital Universitário Professor Alberto Antunes – HUPAA

Abstract

Nurse is an indispensable professional in the care practices in several sectors of the health units of medium and high complexity. As verified today, its contribution has become essential mainly in the activities related to the transfusion therapy of cancer patients. In contrast, the category itself reports a lack of knowledge about the complexity of this type of care. By means of this diagnosis, it is believed that the reason for this problem is related to the insufficient undergraduate content for this area. This project aims to verify the knowledge of nurses and nursing residents about the hemotherapy assistance in oncology patients of the University Hospital Professor Alberto Antunes - HUPAA. For the development of this project, a questionnaire will be conducted, with open and closed questions, applied to nurses and nursing residents, related to the practice of hemotherapy. It is expected through the data collected, to identify the main fragility points in which nursing professionals are in terms of knowledge of hemotherapy assistance, in order to intervene with training and continuing education practices.
