Concept Peplaus model evolves from psychodynamics of

BIBLIOGRAPHY-
1. INTRODUCTION
Nursing profession is under an evolutionary phase. To evolve
nursing requires its own body of knowledge and when realization came it
brought into existence realization came it brought into existence various
theories. In 1952, based on the maturing force of personality it includes
nurse client relationship, communication and pattern integration. It is an
interaction oriented theory. This is theory of interpersonal relations by
Hildegard E. Peplau.
2.BACKGROUND OF THEORIST
DEFINITIONS
Client/Patient
Person, couple, groups or community deserving of human care with dignity,
privacy and ethics
EnvironmentPhysiological, psychological and social fluidity that may be illness,
maintaining or health promoting.
Health
Forward movement of personality and other ongoing human process in the
direction of creative, constructive, personal and community living
Nurse
The medium of the art of nursing, a maturing force. The unique blend of
ideals, values, integrity, commitment to the well being of others
Nursing
Is an interpersonal process involving interaction between two or more
persons with a common goal
Nurse patient interaction is a therapeutic process. It is a healing art.
3.EVOLUTION OF THEORY
ASSUMPTIONS 1. The kind of nurse each person becomes makes a difference in what
each client will learn as she or he is nursed throughout his or her
experiences with illness.
2. Fostering personality development in the direction of maturity is a
function of nursing and nursing education. It requires the use of
principles and method to deal with every day interpersonal problem or
difficulties.
3. Since illness provides opportunity for learning and growth, nursing can
assist clients to develop competencies through nurse client interaction
4. Nursing can take as its unique focus the reactions of clients to the
circumstance of their illness or health problems.
5. All human behavior is purposeful and goal seeking in terms of feelings
of satisfaction.
6. The interaction of nurse and client is fruitful when a method of
communication that identifies and uses common meanings is at work
in the situation.
4.CONCEPTS USED BY PEPLAUSPeplaus model evolves from psychodynamics of Nursing. She defines
psychodynamic nursing as being able to understand ones own behavior to
help others identify felt difficulties and to apply principles of human relations
to the problems that arise at all levels of experiences.
She develops the model by describing the structural concepts of the
interpersonal process the phases of nurse patient relationship. Four
sequential steps in interpersonal relationship orientation, identification,
exploitation and resolution. Each of these phases overlaps interrelates and
varies in duration as the process evolves towards a solution. Different roles
are assumed during the various phases.
According to Peplau Nursing is therapeutic because it is a healing art,
assisting an individual who is sick or in need of health care. The nurse
patients have a common goal while interacting, they respect each other and
both of them are learning and growing as a result of the interaction. An
individual learns when he/she selects stimuli in the environment and then
reacts to the stimuli. According to Peplau each individual is unique biologicalpsychological- spiritual sociological structure. This is due to the different
environment, mores, customs and beliefs of that individuals given culture.
The nurse has a broad range of nursing knowledge which leads to
greater understanding. The nurse patient continues relationship, understand
each others roles and problems. They collaborate and share in mutual goals
until problem is solved. Genevieve Burton agreed with Peplaus concept that
nursing is, maturing force and an educative instrument. And states that,
Behavior of others must be understood in light of self understanding.

5.METAPARADIGM1. Human being an organism that strives in its own way to reduce tension
generated by needs.
2. Health a word symbol that implies forward movements of personality
and other ongoing human processes in the direction of creative,
constructive, protective, personal, and community living.
3. Society/ environment she does not directly address society/environment,
she does encourage the nurse to consider the patients culture and mores
when the patient adjusts to hospital routine.
4. Nursing significant therapeutic interpersonal process. She defines it as a
human relationship between an individual who is sick or in need of health
services and of nurse specialist educated to recognize and to respond to
the need for the health. The nurse assists the patient in this interpersonal
process.
6.CHARACTERISTICS OF THE THEORY1. Theories can interrelate concepts in such a way as to create a different
way of looking at a particular phenomenon.
2. Four phases interrelate the different components of each phase.
3. The nurse patient interaction can apply to the concepts of human being
,health, environment and nursing.
4. Theories must be logical in nature
5. Provides a logical systematic way of viewing nursing situations
6. Key concepts such as anxiety, tension, goals, and frustration are indicated
with explicit relationships among them and progressive phases
7. Theories should be relatively simple yet generalizable
8. It provides simplicity in regard to the natural progression of the NP
relationship.
9. Leads to adaptability in any nurse patient relationship.

17. Theories must be consistent with other validated theories, laws, and
principles but will leave open unanswered questions that need to be
investigated.

service resources are considered less
4. Health promotion and maintenance were less emphasized
5. Cannot be used in a patient who doesnt have a felt need eg. With drawn
