Abstract

We present the case of a 90-year-old patient who, after the airbag ruptured in a car accident, presented a third-degree chemical burn in the right upper extremity, with reduced mobility. Plastic surgery was submitted to a subcutaneous graft without success. After a comprehensive evaluation of the patient according to the functional patterns of Marjory Gordon, the nursing care plan was developed following the NANDA-NOC-NIC methodology. All nursing procedures were carried out in the primary care unit in collaboration with the plastic surgery unit of the patient's referral hospital. The complete healing of the injury took place after five months of the accident.
