RESUMO
Objective: To identify the diagnoses and nursing care for neurocritical patients in the intensive care unit. Method: This is a scope review study, based on the Joanna Briggs Institute, led by the following guiding question: what are the diagnoses and nursing care for neurocritical patients in the intensive care unit? Data collection was carried out in February 2022 in a paired manner, in the following databases: EMBASE, MEDLINE, PubMed, and SCOPUS. For sample selection, the following search strategy was used: "Neurology" AND "Nursing Care" OR "Nursing Diagnosis" AND "Critical Care." Studies were independently selected, blinded by two reviewers. Result: It was possible to identify 854 studies, which after analysis by title and abstract, only 27 articles passed the eligibility, of which 10 were part of this review. Conclusion: According to the analysis of the studies, it was found that nursing care, combined with a care plan for neurocritical patients, allows for better results, with a view to the quality of life and health promotion.
