Abstract: | We objectified to evaluate the adaptive process of an old-aged person who carries arterial hypertension, establishing nursing diagnoses and implementing nursing actions. The study stages were developed at home, being used for the data collection an Roy's model based instrument. After the behaviors and stimulus evaluation, six diagnoses were elaborated: restricted mobility, gait, and/or coordination; impairment of a primary sense; sleep deprivation; low self-esteem; role transition and loneliness. We concluded that the nursing goals and interventions were important, once that allowed in a general way, the ineffective responses substitution for adaptive ones. |
