AVC And BIRD

Initially it fits to clarify the use of the terms Vascular Accident Enceflico (BIRD) and Acidente Vascular Cerebral (AVC). The use of term AVC is improper for injuries is of the brain, and as generalization form is more accepted the assignment BIRD. However in popular register AVC it has enceflica abrangncia (1). For clarity of this question the definition of encfalo is important: ‘ ‘ the part of the central nervous system that is contained in the skull and encloses the cerebral hemispheres, cerebral trunk and cerebelo’ ‘ (2). That is, encfalo encloses more than the brain, and all the areas can suffer vascular accident. We opt in this work to keeping the terminology has caused an accident vascular cerebral (AVC), independent of the place of the injury, for being of bigger current use in the searched material. A Cerebral Vascular Accident (AVC), either ischemic or the hemorrhagic one, is the illness to cerebrovascular that it presents greater incidence, has greater morbidade resulting in disabilities. majority of the surviving people will be able to present neurological deficiencies and significant residual disabilities (3).

Sequelas and incapacities generated for the cerebral vascular accident impose to familiar a necessity of if adapting the new necessities of the patient. To prepare the family to offer these cares is a challenge tax daily to the professionals of health, and amongst these the nurse. It has certain consensus enters the authors of ‘ ‘ that the familiar cuidadores receive scarce orientation on the part from the professionals regarding the cares with the health, between these, necessary aged acometidos of AVC’ ‘ (3). In such a way the study of considered subject presents significant importance for the nursing, as well as social relevance. The related work presents a character of bibliographical revision. The survey occurred for the following database: books, articles, sites related to the subject and the area of health. We had for objective to understand the work of the nurse in the orientation to the cuidador of the patient with AVC, sights to the quality of life of the patient.
