title: [The use of the nursing process in an acute respiratory disease service].
abstract: Due to the value of patient recovery and the development of nursing practices, 37 infants under 1 year of age are studied. These patients had been hospitalized in the Service of Acute Respiratory Diseases in Sur Teaching Children's Hospital in Santiago de Cuba during the months of March-April, 1987. This research work is based in the process of nursing care, and its aimed to determine the behavior and results of its application in a ward with a staff covering the current indicators. It was found that with the human resources available in this service it was feasible to carry out this process, which enabled a more rapid rehabilitation of these patients, according to the care plan carried out. The nurse-patient relationship became apparent in all of the patients studied, with prevalence of the 6-9 month-old age group.
