Objective: To analyze the actions developed in hospitals for children with chronic diseases from the perspective of care management.
Method: Qualitative research, conducted with 14 health professionals from pediatric units in two northeastern hospitals, between November 2018 and March 2019, through semi-structured interviews. The empirical material was interpreted by thematic inductive analysis considering the care management construct.
Results: The actions of the multi-professional team are fragmented, making it challenging to prepare and involve the family in care and not always responding to the child's unique and complex demands. The insufficient number of professionals, lack of material resources and inadequate infrastructure of hospital services reflect in the care practice, generating work overload and inadequate actions.
Final Considerations: Care management is an indispensable tool in coping with chronic childhood illnesses. The actions carried out by the multi-professional teams in hospitals must develop support to expand the care.

Around one-quarter of all patients undergoing cardiac procedures, particularly those on cardiopulmonary bypass, develop cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney injury (CSA-AKI). This complication increases the risk of several serious morbidities and of mortality, representing a significant burden for both patients and the healthcare system. Patients with diminished kidney function before surgery, such as those with chronic kidney disease, are at heightened risk of developing CSA-AKI and have poorer outcomes than patients without preexisting kidney injury who develop CSA-AKI.

Many young adults with T1D (YAT1D) are distracted from effective disease self-management; T1D healthcare service engagement can be problematic and inconsistent, and high rates of unplanned healthcare contacts prevail. Video conferencing use can facilitate services to be flexible and responsive.

It has been estimated that the cost of injuries related to falls in older people will increase exponentially over the coming years (2).
