RESUMO

The objective of this study was to investigate nurses knowledge and perceptions concerning nursing care for the patient with intestinal stoma. It is a descriptive study, with a qualitative approach, carried out in 2007 with 23 nurses, students of the Post Graduate Course in Nursing of a private University in Greater São Paulo. It uses a three-part questionnaire: 1st socio-demograhic profile of the nurses; 2nd training and professional aspects and (3rd) a guiding question: nurses perceptions of nursing care for the patient with intestinal stoma. The data from the 1st and 2nd parts were explained in a qualitative way, and in the 3rd part, the data were organized according to Minayos thematic analysis, based on the theoretical framework of Sister Callista Roy`s Conceptual Adaptation Model. The nurses adaptation models on nursing care for patients with intestinal stoma emerged in the categories of individual coping behavior; coping with family, social and work aspects, and coping with attitudes and previous experience. The data obtained was classified and analyzed, identifying and reporting the stimuli that constitute the process of coping, generated by the modes of adaptation, using cognitive mechanisms that enable the difficulties affecting the nurses adaptation responses to be identified. The nurses states of adaptation were determined, as well as the establishment of goals which favor the elaboration of proposals for nursing intervention. The study enabled us to determine the adaptation models, according to the nurses coping behaviors for the care of patients with intestinal stoma. It is hoped that the proposed interventions be considered with a view to inserting them in the formal and informal content of the teaching process of the future professional, or the nurse, with the aim of achieving the competence required for this type of care
