Objectives: To identify the knowledge of nursing professionals about palliative care in pediatric oncology and their needs for end-of-life care. Method: A descriptive study with a qualitative approach, carried out in a federal hospital in Rio de Janeiro specialized in oncology. 29 nursing professionals from the pediatric inpatient sector participated in semi-structured interviews between July and August 2019. Data submitted to textual lexicographic analysis with Iramuteq. Results: Professionals are aware of the use of comprehensive care, centered on the family, aimed at comfort, and dignified death. They highlighted the need for psychological support for the nursing team, in addition to effective communication with a multidisciplinary team and carrying out actions for professional training in pediatric palliative care. Final considerations: A study showed care that is consistent with the precepts of palliative care and points out gaps in training, highlighting the need for professional training with a view to quality care.
Objetivo: identificar, nas produções científicas, as intervenções de enfermagem para os pacientes pediátricos em pré-operatório. Métodos: revisão integrativa da literatura. Utilizaram-se as bases de dados: Índice Cumulativo de Enfermagem e Literatura de Saúde Aliada (CINAHL), Sistema Online de Busca e Análise de Literatura Médica (MEDLINE), Literatura Latino Americana e do Caribe (LILACS) e Banco de dados Excerpta Medica (EMBASE). A busca ocorreu em outubro de 2018, foram definidos critérios de inclusão e exclusão, combinando-se os descritores: preoperative care, nursing, children, utilizando os operadores booleanos entre eles. Resultados: doze artigos foram considerados relevantes, dos quais emergiram três categorias: brincadeiras terapêuticas, ações educativas em saúde e programas direcionados e personalizados. Conclusão: as intervenções de enfermagem presentes nos estudos analisados podem ser utilizadas em crianças com variados diagnósticos cirúrgicos. Elas propiciaram ao paciente uma maior compreensão do processo cirúrgico, a redução da ansiedade e o aumento da cooperação com a equipe de saúde.
