MARQUES, Cristiane da Câmara et al. Risk factors of nursing diagnosis: risk of infection in patients with Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome hospitalized. Enfermería Actual de Costa Rica [online]. 2019, n.36, pp.104-115. ISSN 1409-4568.  http://dx.doi.org/10.15517/revenf.v0i36.33571.

The aim of this research was to identify in the literature the risk factors of the Nursing Risk Assessment of Infection present in patients with Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome hospitalized. This is an integrative review, carried out in the PubMed, SCOPUS, Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature databases, Latin American Literature in Health Sciences, Scientific Electronic Library Online. We selected 10 articles that met the inclusion criteria. Case-control studies, clinical, transverse, cohort and descriptive studies were identified. Five of the 19 factors present in the nursing diagnosis "Risk of infection", indicated in the North American Nursing Diagnosis Association, were: immunosuppression (considered the most prevalent present in 70% of the studies), malnutrition, peristalsis, invasive procedure and chronic disease. It is concluded that the knowledge about the risk factors in the studied population is susceptible, so a guide is offered for targeted and effective assistance in order to reduce risks.
