Resumen
[ES] Introducción: Es importante saber que el síndrome depresivo en el anciano es un estado de ánimo triste, una alteración del humor en que la tristeza es patológica, desproporcionada, profunda, abarcando la totalidad del ser. Produce alto grado de incapacidad y aumenta la mortalidad en la población geriátrica.
Justificación: Los pacientes con síndrome depresivo aumentan la tasa de consulta en Atención Primaria y en última instancia ocasiona la institucionalización de los ancianos por parte de la familia. La detección y tratamiento del síndrome depresivo en geriatría pretende, sobre todo, una mejoría en la calidad de vida relacionada con la salud en la cual la labor de enfermería puede desarrollar un papel clave en la remisión de los síntomas depresivos. Por lo que es importante abordar trabajos que traten este síndrome.
Metodología: Para el desarrollo de este TFG se ha seguido un método de revisión bibliográfica y caso clínico real de paciente institucionalizado en la residencia donde desempeñé las prácticas Ícaro. Para la realización del mismo se ha utilizado como modelo la valoración integral de enfermería según las necesidades de Virginia Henderson y la taxonomía NANDA, NIC, NOC.
Resultados y conclusiones: Los resultados del caso clínico, en el que han mejorados los indicadores correspondientes a los diagnóstico relacionados con la nutrición y el estreñimiento, pero se han mantenido prácticamente lo mismo o no han mejorado los relacionados con la ansiedad y depresión, nos llevan a pensar que necesitamos una mayor formación en la detección y planificación de cuidados de este síndrome.
[EN] It is important to know that the depressive syndrome in the elderly is a sad mood, mood altered when sadness is pathological, disproportionate, deep, covering the whole being. It produces high degree of disability and increased mortality in the geriatric population. Patients with depressive syndrome increase the rate of consultation in primary care and ultimately causes the institutionalization of the elderly by the family. Detection and treatment of depressive syndrome in geriatrics aims, above all, an improvement in quality of life related to health in which the nursing work can develop a key role in the remission of depressive symptoms. For the development of this TFG it has followed a method of actual literature review and clinical case of institutionalized patient in the residence where the Icarus play practices. For the realization of it has been used as a model comprehensive nursing assessment according to the needs of Virginia Henderson and NANDA, NIC, NOC taxonomy. The results of the case, which have improved the indicators for the diagnosis related to nutrition and constipation, but have remained virtually the same or have not improved related to anxiety and depression, lead us to think that we need further training in detection and care planning of this syndrome.
