Abstract
Introduction. The acute renal failure is a complication that is often reported in patients treated in the ICU. At least 20% of patients staying in this ward suffer from the acute renal failure. Therefore patient care in the event of immediate danger to life should be liable to an early recognition of the symptoms indicating renal impairment. Aim. The aim of the study is to define nurses’ role in supporting patients suffering from the acute renal failure. Case study. Patient (male), 52- year- old, admitted to the AIIT ward. He was diagnosed with acute renal failure, caused by sepsis and the operative treatment of the abdominal aortic aneurysm. Discussion. In patients with the acute renal failure the main concern regarding patient care is the risk of dehydration. Dehydration can cause fluid or electrolyte imbalance and it is essential to prevent such situation in order to be able to improve patient's quality of life. Conclusions. Applying ICNP ® in planning the nursing care for patients in OAiIT with severe renal impairment enables to monitor the number, character as well as the quality of nursing services provided.
