NANA'S TRANSITION IN ONCOLOGY: NARRATIVE AND ANALYSIS OF A NURSING SITUATION FROM THE THEORETICAL-EMPIRICAL CONCEPTUAL SYSTEM

Abstract

The care relationships that are damaged between the nursing professional and the cared person are evidenced in the ‘nursing situation’, which can be verbally narrated for analysis and reflection. The objective was to describe the construction and analysis of a nursing situation narrative through the empirical theoretical conceptual system, and nine patterns of nursing knowledge. A significant care experience was selected between a nursing professional and a woman with breast cancer who is undergoing the transition due to cancer treatment. The nursing situation narrative was built from the adaptation of the guiding questions of Gómez and Gutiérrez, it was analyzed through the empirical theoretical conceptual system and nine patterns of nursing knowledge. As a contribution, the analysis of the Conceptual, Theoretical and Empirical elements and patterns of nursing knowledge was presented to demonstrate the need to integrate the analysis of narratives from the knowledge of the other and the epistemological basis of the nursing discipline.
