- Abstract
Objective: to evaluate the complexity of nursing care based on Fugulin's Patient Classification System. Method: descriptive, documental and retrospective research with a quantitative approach. The instrument "Patient Classification System" was applied to all patients admitted to the medical clinic unit between May and July 2021. The convenience sample included 1000 assessments, 998 of which were included in the study. Data analysis was performed using descriptive statistics with support from the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) software. The classification of care complexity was based on the score obtained. Results: most patients required minimal care (34.7%), followed by high dependency care (21%), intermediate care (18.2%), semi-intensive care (18%) and intensive care (8%). Conclusions: despite the predominance of minimal care patients, it was found that 47% of patients demanded high dependency, semi-intensive or intensive care which characterizes high complexity of nursing care in the investigated scenario.
