MARTINEZ-DELGADO, M.M.. Standardisation of nursing care amongst patients in prison. Rev. esp. sanid. penit. [online]. 2014, vol.16, n.1, pp.11-19. ISSN 2013-6463.

Objective: To develop the Standardized Nursing Care Process format amongst patients in a prison. Material and methods: Observational, descriptive study, conducted on a sample of thirty patients in Soria Prison between March and June 2011. We collected information via a review of medical records and conducted an interview of nursing assessments using functional patterns. Subsequent nursing diagnoses and interrelated problems were obtained using NANDA taxonomy. The subsequent use of NIC and NOC taxonomy marked the activities and performance criteria for each diagnosis, in the same way as for interrelated problems. Results: The nursing diagnoses found in the patient sample analyzed, and the frequency thereof, reveal peculiarities in terms of the health care needs of the prison population, which makes it possible to standardize nursing care plans for the population under study.
