ABSTRACT
Geriatric syndromes are a set of pathologies that most affect the elderly people linked to factors
of functional or social capacity and their etiology is of multifactorial origin. Functional health
is the main determinant of health standards for the elderly person, which is subdivided into four
functional domains, such as cognition, mood, mobility and communication. When there is any
such loss of functionality, this functional decline results in the presentation of geriatric
syndromes. In this way, nursing has the relevance of attributing holistic care to these
individuals’ quality of life, in order to reduce the clinical advances of signs and symptoms in
the presence of geriatric syndromes, thus helping to improve the adaptive state and, mainly, in
the approach and understanding of nursing care in the asylum environment. The study has as
general objective to present what are the geriatric conditions that cause geriatric syndromes and
their impact, in particular, on the target audience of institutionalized elderly people and how
nursing should act, and, as specific objectives: to determine the attributions of nursing in front
of the elderly people with functional losses due to geriatric syndromes affected during their
aging process; to understand the guidelines and health policies of the elderly person through
promotion, prevention, protection, recovery and health rehabilitation; and to apply the geriatric
evaluation tools to the health actions and interventions of nursing care. The methodology of the
research has a qualitative approach of a basic nature, classified in a descriptive and explanatory
way through bibliographic instruments in an integrative review, carried out between February
and June 2022. The data collection was done in the electronic database on the platform of
MEDLINE, Virtual Health Library (BVS), Science direct, LILACS, for the most effective
selection of the proposed theme, the basic selection of 45 articles was exclusive, following the
criteria for inclusion of the work, for the most part, in Google Scholar. The research was carried
out through the analysis of articles published between the beginning of 2012 and the end of
2022. It is concluded that, for the most part, the articles showed the impact of geriatric
syndromes that interfere with quality and well-being of life and health of the elderly person
and, especially, when institutionalized, they become susceptible, more vulnerable to the
development of syndromes. The good approach of a nursing professional in the investigation
of these risk factors for the functional decline of the elderly person, with the use of instruments
for early evaluation of these functionalities, becomes effective in articulating health actions and
policies exclusively for the elderly person. In this way, the work becomes of great value for
possible future research.KEYWORDS: Geriatric Syndromes. Elderly people. Long Stay Institution for the Elderly
