The study aimed to evaluate the degree of accuracy of the nursing diagnoses of patients hospitalized in a university hospital. This is a documentary, cross-sectional and retrospective research with quantitative analysis. Data were collected from records of patients hospitalized in the neurology sector of a teaching hospital in the western region of Paraná, Brazil. 292 patients’ records were evaluated and after the analyses of inclusion and exclusion criteria, 12 (4.1%) were part of the study. Nineteen nursing diagnoses were identified, documented 94 times. The evaluation of the accuracy of the nursing diagnoses was done using EADE-2. Most of nursing diagnoses (n = 88, 93.6%) were evaluated as highly accurate. The most frequent degree of accuracy was 13.5 (n = 87; 92.6%) and the mean accuracy was 12.9, with a variation from 2 to 13.5. It is concluded that the nursing diagnoses analyzed were highly accurate, but it's notorious the lack of nursing process at the institution studied.
