Abstract
Objective: To identify nursing diagnoses for patients with cardiac arrhythmia to promote support in the realization of the Nursing process for these individuals. Methods: integrative review from May to July 2019 in the databases VHL, PubMed, SciELO, CENTRAL, CAPES, ProQuest and Google Scholar. The analysis process of the selected article took place through the exploratory and detailed reading of titles, abstracts and research results, where the nursing diagnoses related to arrhythmias were sought. Results: Nursing Diagnoses identified were acute pain related to biological and physical injurious agents evidenced in the verbal report of pain and facial expression; Insomnia related to the ingestion of stimulants or alcohol evidenced with limitation of normal sleep pattern and difficulty in ordering or maintaining sleep; Sedentary lifestyle related to lack of motivation and of interest evidenced by lack of physical fitness. Final considerations: Due to the scarce production of studies related to the objective, we suggest studies that develop the Nursing Process for patients with arrhythmias in the intra and extra-hospital contexts. It is still suggested to investigate diagnoses in other domains that were not addressed, thus aiming at acting holistically.
