- Abstract
Objective: To describe the Systematization of Nursing Care (SNC) for patients diagnosed with autoimmune encephalitis. Method: This is an experience report carried out with a patient hospitalized in the medical clinic of Teaching Hospital in São Luís-MA in the period of July 2022 based on Wanda Horta's Theory of Basic Human Needs. Results: The six stages of the nursing process were applied. The main basic human needs affected were: neurological regulation, nutrition, locomotion, oral/body hygiene and mobility. The care plan was implemented during the follow-up, there was little clinical evolution and the patient remained totally dependent on the nursing team. Conclusion: Through this report, it was possible to identify the main diagnoses and specificities of the patient. Reinforcing that the theoretical supports allied to the case study, guarantee the applicability of the SNC.
