Popis: The present study aims at evaluating the quality of patient’s monitoring records at an adult inpatient unit of a university hospital. It is a descriptive, prospective study using quantitative methods, based on secondary data from the hospital’s Office of Nursing Care Quality for October 2008, October 2009 and July 2010. The records for October 2008 and July 2010 were considered satisfactory. The ones for October 2009 were deemed unsatisfactory. Although nursing records improved during 2010, items of extreme importance were still unsatisfactory. Such inadequacies should be addressed to improve the nursing work process and ensure reliable nursing records.
