[Self-care in hospital discharge planning after bone-marrow transplantation: a case report].
The purpose of this work was to construct an instrument that would enable the characterization of therapeutic self-care needs of an individual submitted to bone marrow transplantation (BMT) by reflecting on nursing interventions in the planning of hospital discharge based on Orem's self-care theory. The inclusion criteria consisted in the selection of allogenic clients who had been submitted to BMT and presented chronic myeloid leukemia. Data analysis enabled the evaluation of modified self-care requirements and nursing interventions were included in the support-education system and in the partly compensatory system. The instrument must be refined, but its use can be suggested as a support for the elaboration of the planning of hospital discharge for BMT patients.
