Proposed therapeutic and care approach in a patient with chronic prurigo: Clinical case.

We present the clinical case of an 87-year-old man who presents with chronic prurigo without skin treatment. The aim is to apply an individualized care plan that allows, based on the latest evidence, to achieve skin integrity, which is deteriorated, and improve its quality of life due to the current failure toad dress the pathology. Several NANDA International diagnostic labels were identified using the NNNConsult online tool and the expected outcomes were plan along with the planned nursing interventions. The care plan shows the intrinsic difficulty of a multifactorial pathology that is little known and rare but that entails a notable impact on the quality of life and skin integrity, especially when new treatment approaches are currently emerging that are un explored by patients and professionals. This situation makes it necessary to expose and train cases like the one presented, update treatment path ways, real involvement of professionals for adaptation, individualization and continuous search to meet the needs and problems suffered by the people we care for, as well as the need to know new skin approaches. This work outlines a line of skin care that respects skin integrity, following the latest evidence and points out the therapeutic medical approach without going into depth as it is not the aim of the work or nursing competence.
