Abstract

Objective: To relate the clinical aspects and the symptomatology of patients with the nursing diagnoses applied in the context of COVID-19 through the taxonomy of the North American Association of International Nursing Diagnoses (NANDA-I). Methods: Exploratory and bibliographic research. From the clinical manifestations described in the literature as the most used for screening of COVID-19, trained nurses with clinical practice with the patient with COVID-19 were researched and developed, the main nursing diagnoses for patients affected by the disease from the NANDA-I taxonomy. Results: The clinical manifestations chosen were cough, fever, myalgia, dyspnea, sore throat, fatigue and runny nose. 13 nursing diagnoses were selected, belonging to four domains: domain 2 - nutrition, domain 4 - activity/rest, domain 11 - safety/protection and domain 12 - comfort. Final Considerations: The Systematization of Nursing Assistance and the Nursing Process stand out for allowing holistic care to patients with COVID-19, with daily and structured monitoring. The nursing diagnoses listed in this study for the clinical manifestations of the disease included nutritional, respiratory, comfort and well-being factors, all of these important elements for the recovery of the individual infected with the coronavirus.
