| description | The nursing team is responsible for most of the aferições of arterial pressure (PA), and incorrect measures of the PA can take to serious consequences. Readings falsely high they do with that the patient has to be submitted to treatment and erroneously low, they deprive it of the same. It is objectified to identify the assistants’ theoretical and practical knowledge of nursing technicians of a public hospital on the steps of the correct technique of the measure of the arterial pressure, relating it with the procedure recommended by American Heart Association.

It is ended that the appraised theoretical-practical knowledge was shown incomplete and, until, incorrect, being the faultier theoretical knowledge in relation to the practical. |
