- Abstract
Objective: To identify the nursing diagnoses in children with kidney diseases, and to analyze the association between these diagnoses, their defining characteristics, related or risk factors. Methods: A cross-sectional, quantitative study, conducted with 68 hospitalized children in a university hospital in northeastern Brazil. An interview guide and physical examination was used to collect data. The selection of diagnoses was procedural, and the data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics. Results: Thirteen diagnoses were identified. The most frequent diagnoses presented statistically significant association with their diagnostic indicators and were found in the domains of health promotion, elimination/ exchange, nutrition, safety/protection and activity/rest. Conclusion: The most prevalent nursing diagnoses were: excess fluid volume, risk for infection, impaired urinary elimination, fatigue, and ineffective protection. In general, the defining characteristics and the related/ risk factors of the diagnosis showed significant association.
