Abstract

Background: Population aging is progressively a characteristic universal phenomenon. During the life cycle, the risk of chronic diseases and dependence increases, with a general decline in the individual's intrinsic capacity. Neurological disease is increasingly prevalent, with a social and economic impact, associated with high mortality, with adverse consequences at various levels such as cognitive, behavioral and motor, and a growing demand for health care. The Rehabilitation Nursing Specialist Nurse [RNSN] has a relevant role in the self-care of the person with neurological disorders, in his/her family and in the community. Objective: To investigate the sensible gains from rehabilitation nursing interventions that promote self-care in people aged 65 and older with neurological disorders. Methodology: Systematic Literature Review. The search for studies was performed using databases [Academic Search Complete, Business Source Complete, CINAHL Plus with Full Text, ERIC, Library, Information Science & Technology Abstracts, MedicLatina, MEDLINE with Full Text, Psychology and Behavioral Sciences Collection, Regional Business News, SPORTDiscus with Full Text], with the following descriptors extracted from the Medical Subjects Heading vocabulary [MeSH]: [[outcome] or [intervention] or [education]] AND [[nursing] or [nursing care] or [nursing interventions]] AND [[neurology] or [neurological assessment] or [neurological rehabilitation]. The search was conducted in the month of September 2021, using the chronological frieze 2015–2021, with the linguistic limiter of articles in English and Portuguese language. Results: A total of nine studies were obtained, with a description of three dimensions that mirror appreciable gains in RNSN care for the person with neurological disorders. Conclusion: Interventions and outcomes were identified in the cognitive, social and functional dimensions of the RNSN in self-care to people with neurological pathology: The Nurse Rehabilitation Specialist has an essential role in the intervention to people with self-care deficit with neurological pathology. Interventions and outcomes were identified in the cognitive, self-care literacy and functional domains with a view to maximizing functional capacity.
