Abstract
La hemodiálisis es un procedimiento complejo que requiere personal de enfermería con alta cualificación profesional, pues es un tratamiento extracorpóreo en el que pueden aparecer efectos adversos y la tasa de mortalidad de los pacientes es muy alta. Para asignar el personal idóneo se debe considerar las cargas de trabajo y el grado de dependencia de los pacientes.El objetivo de esta revisión fue describir la relación entre el personal de enfermería, aumento de las tasas de eventos adversos y mortalidad entre los usuarios. La metodología utilizada fue una búsqueda de bases de datos a través de la colección electrónica del Sistema de Bibliotecas de la Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile.Veinticinco artículos fueron revisados para analizar la relación entre el personal de enfermería y los eventos adversos y la mortalidad.La evidencia apoya que una mayor proporción de enfermeras, disminuye las tasas de eventos adversos y la mortalidad.
Haemodialysis is a complex procedure that requires highly qualified nursing staff, as it is an extracorporeal treatment in which adverse effects may appear and the patient mortality rate is very high. To assign suitable staff the work loads and degree of dependence of patients should be considered. The aim of this review was to discover the relationship between nursing staff, increase in adverse event rate and mortality rate among users. The methodology used was a database search through the electronic collection of the Libraries System of the Pontifical Catholic University of Chile. Twenty-five articles were reviewed to analyse the relationship between nursing staff and adverse events and mortality. The evidence supports that a higher proportion of nurses reduces adverse event and mortality rates.
