Resumen
MORENO IZQUIERDO, Aránzazu. Study on the impact of therapeutic isolation on self-care: an approarch from the Orem theory. Ene. [online]. 2018, vol.12, n.3, 1238. ISSN 1988-348X.
The aim of this study is to investigate the relationship between the isolation of patients and satisfaction of universal self-care requirements described in Orem´s Theory.
Firstly, Human Needs and some aspects of Human Development are studied. This work is based on the Orem´s Model because it is the only theoretical model based on the concept of self-care. About isolation of patients, first, the attributes which describe any isolation situation are described. Next, isolation is studied “as a tool to prevent the spread of infectious disease.
The methodology is based on deductive reasoning. The information from the bibliographic sources is used to analyse the self-care of the isolated person.
The final objective is to demonstrate if there is a self-care deficit. Nursing has an important role to play in acting to minimize the adverse effects of isolation.
