Adverse reactions to whole blood donation, basic human needs and nursing diagnoses: a reflection

Abstract

A theoretical-Reflective study with the objective to reflect on human needs regarding the imbalance of whole blood donors considering adverse reactions to the donation, and the existing nursing diagnoses that best meet the imbalance needs. The following needs were pointed out according to the signs and symptoms of adverse reactions and based on the Theory of Basic Human Needs: skin and tissue integrity, emotional security, pain perception, body mechanics, oxygenation, physical integrity, physical comfort, elimination, neurological, electrolytic and vascular regulation. By observing NANDA International's Definitions and Classifications, adaptations to the existing nursing diagnoses and suggestions for new headings have been proposed. We conclude that some of the needs are interrelated, such as vascular regulation, oxygenation and physical integrity. Thus, more contextualized nursing diagnoses related to the needs of whole blood donors are needed, given the specific nature of the situation generating imbalances such as: ineffective systemic vascular regulation characterized by self-reported dizziness, cutaneous pallor and arterial hypotension related to vasovagal reaction.

Donor tolerability of convalescent plasma donation

“…The results showed that convalescent plasma donation was safe, which was similar to the results of this study 10 . In addition, many studies confirm that delayed adverse reactions, consisting mainly of vasovagal reactions and hematoma, usually occurred when a donor was just leaving the donation center or later 15,16 . There is a strong link between the occurrence of these adverse reactions and subsequent discontinuation of donations.…”

Transformar la asistencia de necesidad básica en un momento de cuidado

“…La situación de hospitalización genera en los pacientes y familias un estado de vulnerabilidad que se suma al de la enfermedad, y tiende a desequilibrar la capacidad de satisfacer sus necesidades básicas; en tal sentido, valorarlas y atenderlas es una prioridad (12). Para ello, es necesario contar con un enfoque holístico que permita contemplar al sujeto de cuidado en su plenitud como ser humano (13).…”

Hemotransfusões E a Importância Da Equipe De Enfermagem: Revisão Integrativa De Literatura

“…ISSN 2675-6218 Ademais, toda transfusão é considerada um transplante, pois o sangue é um composto de diferentes células que podem gerar reações adversas no sistema imunológico, podendo ocasionar riscos sanitários, inclusive a morte (Esplendori, 2018).…”

“…Essas reações podem causar equimose, dor no braço, hematoma, reações alérgicas e febris. As reações mais incomuns à doação de sangue são fadiga, reação vasovagal, síncope, queda abrupta de pressão arterial ou hipoglicemia e lesão pulmonar aguda (Brasil, 2013;Esplendori, 2018).…”
