Abstract

Descriptive and retrospective study of 200 patients who have been subjected to a Knee prosthesis surgical intervention in the orthopedic department of the Hospital Complexo Hospitalario Universitario de Vigo. An individualized care plan computerized according to the Gacela project has been implemented. Forty patients have been excluded from the study because even if they had followed a plan, it only included actions. It was only considered the objectives and diagnosis of the individualized care plan that have been chosen by nurses, choosing those objectives that have been selected more than 15 times and those diagnosis that have been selected more than 20 times. When executing the study, the historical register of the Gacela project was used. The goal was to develop a standard care plan from the daily practice of the nurses and whose objectives would be saving time in care planning, using a job methodology.
