Hidrosefalisi Olan Çocuklarda Hemşirelik Bakımı: Bir Literatür Taraması

Abstract

This study was conducted to review nursing care for caregivers of children with hydrocephalus and having shunt. In the literature, it has been stated that counseling the caregivers of children with hydrocephalus about shunt care will reduce the difficulties experienced in the care and follow-up of the shunt, and that it can prepare the caregivers emotionally while struggling with the difficulties they will encounter. In this review, the problems that may arise in shunt care and the issues to be considered in nursing care were summarized. It is important that the problems that arise about the care of the shunt are determined by the caregivers who take care of the child with hydrocephalus. Nurses have an important role in helping caregivers cope with disease management, supporting them and reducing the negative effects of the caregiver role.
