Objective: To analyse the strategies found by families to deal with the situation of critical illness, in their lived experience in a family and in an inpatient context. Method: This research fits into a qualitative paradigm and a phenomenological approach, according to Van-Manen. Participants were referred to a "snowball" effect method and the data was collected through interviews with open-ended questions. Results: From the collected data three essential themes emerged revealing the strategies: Being aware; Building dialogue; Ensuring comfort. Final considerations: In the therapeutic intervention nurses verify that families facing a critical-illness interact between themselves and with the ICU team. Families interacting with nurses can find cognitive and emotional support allowing them to be aware of the situation and to speak about it in order to strengthen and to comfort themselves.

“…Throughout the vital cycle, the human being experiences challenges and changes which need to be dealt with, mobilizing his/her resources for the maintenance of health and well-being. However, if some changes are desired and occur predictably, acute illness or an accident leading to hospitalization in an intensive care unit constitutes itself as an abrupt transition from a state of health to a critical condition, which requires adaptation mechanisms from the patient and their family (Mendes, 2018). Since the experience of the disease is a process that affects the entire family, it is crucial that the nursing care is not limited to the interaction between the nurse and the patient, because the family should be involved not just as a resource to help the sick person, but also as a care target.…”

Background: It is argued that patients' family should be included into the nursing care plan, not only as a partner but also as a recipient of care. However the severity and emergency of situations in the context of critical care, lead nurses to focus on technological aspects of care somehow disregarding human and family care. Objective: To identify the emotional needs of critical patients' family as well as nursing interventions responding to those needs. Methodology: An integrative literature review was performed in Science Direct and EBSCO search engines considering PICo structure (Population, Interest, Context). Six papers matched the search criteria. Results: Family needs to be given clear and honest information, to set a relationship based on proximity and trust with professional caregivers, to express their feelings and to nourish a realistic trust. Conclusion: Even if some form of consensus was found between different authors, the limited number of retrieved papers point out the need for further research.

Aim: To review nursing studies using hermeneutics as a methodology in different dimensions including practice, education, and administration. Background: Hermeneutics is a qualitative research methodology that focuses on interpreting the meanings of experiences in individual's life. It is a major philosophy and research method in the humanities, human sciences and arts disciplines with a central goal of describing people's experiences. Data sources: A review of relevant literature using electronics databases including EBSCO, SCOPUS, MEDLINE, CINAHL, and PUBMED. Review methods: Using an integrative method, peer-reviewed research and discussion papers published between 2013 and 2018 and listed in the CINAHL, SCOPUS, Science Direct, PubMed and Google Scholar databases were reviewed. Findings: A final review of 13 studies that used hermeneutic phenomenology as a philosophical background and research methods was done. Conclusions: Hermeneutic phenomenology has been used as a qualitative method in numerous nursing studies with different domain including practice, education and administration. The ability of the nurses to make decisions related to implementing evidence in education, practice, research, and admiration is reliant on the clinical expertise of the nurse. The review of the literature identified that the capability to correlate research findings to these three categories in nursing and the willingness and inclination to improve current practice were crucial factors for knowledge translation.
