Objective: to know the influence of the confusional state in the recovery of the functional independence of the patient undergoing rehabilitation. Method: descriptivecorrelational, quantitative and cross-sectional study, with non-probabilistic sampling, of accidental typology. Inclusion criteria: measure of functional independence ≤90 and patients subject to immobility. Exclusion criteria: patients with neoplastic diseases and with a Glasgow coma scale <11. For data collection, a sociodemographic questionnaire and the NEECHAM and MIF scales were used. Results: the sample data (n = 40), reveal an age of 76.48 years, mostly women, married, with the elementary school and on average were subject to 49.60 days of immobility. The confusional state had a significant improvement from the 1st assessment on admission, in which 52.2% of the individuals presented with moderate to severe confusion, for the 2nd assessment at discharge, in which 85% were not confused. Functional independence improved by 38.03%. Conclusion: confusion is a neuropsychiatric problem that interferes with attention and cognition, namely the capacity for perception. However, even confused participants, when submitted to a rehabilitation nursing program, tend to regain functional independence. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Objective: to know the influence of rehabilitation nursing care on the recovery of functional independence of the patient. Method: descriptive-correlational, quantitative, cross-sectional study with non-probability sampling of accidental typology. Inclusion criteria: functional independence measure ≤90 and patients subject to immobility. Exclusion criteria: patients with neoplastic diseases and altered state of consciousness. For data collection, a sociodemographic questionnaire and the MIF Scale were used. Results: The sample data (n = 40) reveal an average age of 76.4 years, mostly women (57.5%), married (55%), with the first level of education (70%), and were subject to 49.6 days of immobility on average. Functional independence improved significantly from the 1st (46.69) to the 2nd assessment (94.61). Conclusion: immobility tends to impair the person's quality of life and health, requiring professional intervention. These people under the care of rehabilitation nurses, recovered 36.98% of their functional independence. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
