The authors present the necessity to standardize basic treatment protocols for bedridden patients in order to avoid circulatory complications. If we set up protocols for nursing treatment when dealing with this type of patients and the activities derived from this care, we can act precociously to achieve our objective. The authors propose the following Standardized Treatment Plan bearing in mind that this is a protocol for a specific situation, appropriate for bedridden patients who suffer the risk of circulatory complications. One should not forget that standardized treatment plans serve as a model, but it is necessary for nurses to personalize each plan for each patient.
