title: [Schizophrenia. Nursing approach. Current perspectives].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To review recent publications which deal with the role nurses have regarding schizophrenia. Besides strict pharmacological treatment, the authors place value on the need to get involved with the deficit provoked by this disease and the usefulness of providing aid and support to patients' families, due to a belief that nurses can play a more decisive, innovating role in these areas.
  
  
  METHODS
  Publications about nurses' roles with patients diagnosed as schizophrenics published from 1995 to 2000 and listed in the Medline data base.
