Spina bifida is a congenital anomaly used to describe neural tube defect malformations resulting from defects in a series of steps in the development of neural tissue and related mesodermal and ectodermal layers at embryonic days 28. The type and degree of neurological and functional disorders seen in newborns diagnosed with SB may vary according to the level of the lesion. In these processes, the newborn and his family need intensive care and support of nurses. In nursing care, nursing theories and models are used to increase the effectiveness of care, to systematize it and to create a guide. The Neuman Systems Model (NSM) provides nurses with a systems-based and comprehensive conceptual framework by explaining the individual's physiological, psychological, socio-cultural, developmental and spiritual variables. The basis of the model is based on the individual or society's response to stressors and the nurse's intervention to this stress response with primary, secondary and tertiary protection measures. In this case, using NSM, a newborn with SB was given care with a holistic nursing approach, taking into account the developmental, physiological, psychological, sociocultural and spiritual characteristics. Within the scope of the model, detailed data of the case were collected, and a care plan was prepared by determining the appropriate protection levels for these diagnoses in line with NANDA nursing diagnoses. This study will contribute to nursing care plans. It is thought that the effectiveness and quality of care will increase as NSM is integrated into nursing care
