Objective: to analyze the leadership practices among nurses in face of COVID-19 pandemic in university hospitals in Brazil.
Method: this is a multicenter, qualitative and exploratory-descriptive research. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 139 nurses who worked in the care for patients with COVID-19 in Brazilian university hospitals.
Objectives: to analyze the quality of child and adolescent care transitions from hospital to home, considering the presence of chronic disease.
Methods: quantitative, cross-sectional study, carried out from February to September 2019 in two hospitals in the south of Brazil. We used an instrument to characterize participants and the Care Transitions Measure (CTM-15) for the legal tutors of children and adolescents that were discharged from the institutions.
Objective: To analyze the continuity of care for children with chronic conditions from the transition from hospital to home.
Method: Parallel-convergent mixed-methods research, with a cross-sectional study and Grounded Theory. A characterization instrument and the Care Transitons Measure were applied to 201 legal guardians of children with chronic conditions, and semi-structured interviews were conducted with 35 participants (among professionals and guardians).
Objective: This study aimed to identify the factors that exerted an impact on the experiences of hospitalized patients during the COVID-19 pandemic from the quality and safety perspectives.
Method: A scoping review that followed the 5 stages described by Arksey and O'Malley was used. A systematized search of original studies was conducted in 9 databases: PubMed/MEDLINE, BDENF, CINAHL, LILACS, SciELO, Embase, Scopus, Web of Science, and Google Scholar.
Objectives: to understand the meaning of continuity of care for children with chronic conditions through transitional care from hospital to home.
Methods: this is a qualitative study, conducted from a Constructivist Grounded Theory perspective. Purposive and theoretical sampling were used to recruit 35 participants, including nurses, professionals from the interprofessional hospital team, and actors responsible for healthcare in the home context.
Objective: To analyze which factors may be associated with the quality-of-care transition of children with chronic diseases from the hospital to their home.
Method: A cross-sectional, quantitative study, carried out in two hospitals in Southern Brazil, from February to September 2019. Participants included 167 family members of children with chronic disease.
This is a theoretical analysis of Constructivist Grounded Theory and its application in nursing research. It is organized in three topics: Characteristics of Grounded Theory; Philosophical basis of the constructivist strand; and Constructivist Grounded Theory data analysis particularities. The unique characteristics of Grounded Theory that set it apart from other approaches are simultaneous data collection and analyses, theoretical sampling, constant comparison at each stage of analysis, development of memos for reflexive and comparative analysis, and a coding system with an initial and a focused stage that is flexible and guides the analytical process of building a theory.
