Abstract

The nursing diagnoses result from the grouping of collected data, which allows the nurse to establish interventions
in the patient’s health. This quantitative and documental research aimed to identify the most frequent nursing diagnoses among
new-borns with glycemic alterations, hospitalized in a maternity school in August 2011. The priority nursing diagnoses refer
to unbalanced nutrition, of less than bodily needs, Risk of unstable glycemia, Inefficient pattern of feeding the baby, Risk of
disproportionate growth, Impaired fatherhood and motherhood, Inefficient breastfeeding, Impaired gaseous exchange, Interrupted
breastfeeding, and Risk of infection. A predominance was observed of diagnoses referent to Risk of disproportionate growth,
Risk of infection, and Risk of unstable glycemia. The importance of using Systematization of Nursing Care is emphasized, with
the aim of planning the care for neonates with glycemic disorders.
