Multi-Professional Family Support Programme: A Collective Development at the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit.

This study was undertaken to structure and validate a Multi-Professional Family Support Programme that was collectively developed at a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU). This is participative research of the action-research category with a qualitative-quantitative approach conducted at a University Hospital in the southeast of Brazil with the participation of their multi-professional staff. The study was done in four interdependent stages, adapted from the method proposed by Thiollent (2011): organisation, structuring, validation, and diffusion.

Educational material production and validity: educational instrument for home care for premature newborns.

Objective: to produce and validate a booklet, based on Jean Watson's Theory, on home care for premature newborns, based on caregivers' experiences.

Method: a methodological study, developed in the following stages: diagnosis of knowledge needs about home care; survey of scientific content; educational material production; and validity by judges/experts.

Results: the literature review resulted in 19 articles.

(Lack of) knowledge of mothers about sickle cell trait and disease: a qualitative study.

Objective: to analyze the understanding of mothers about sickle cell disease and/or trait of the family from a diagnosed child.

Methods: this is a qualitative study, using a semi-structured interview with 23 mothers, at a sickle cell disease outpatient clinic of a public institution, from October to December 2017. Analysis was thematic.

Management tools in nursing care for children with pressure injury.

Objectives: to develop and validate management tools for the systematization of nursing care for children with pressure injuries.

Methods: methodological study in which the focus group technique was used for validation of tools in three different groups of 17 nurses. Conducted in April and May 2018 at a large pediatric hospital.

Theoretical saturation in qualitative research: an experience report in interview with schoolchildren.

Objective: report the experience of applying the theoretical data saturation technique in qualitative research with schoolchildren.

Method: critical reading of primary sources and compilation of raw data, followed by thematic grouping through colorimetric codification and allocation of themes/types of statements in charts to find theoretical saturation for each grouping.

Results: colorimetric codification occurred according to previously established themes: bodily hydration; physical activities and play; handling of sickle-cell disease; feeding and clothing.
