RESUMEN

PURPOSE: To assess hospitalized children's satisfaction with nursing care. DESIGN AND METHODS: Cross-sectional study using the "Children Care Quality at Hospital" questionnaire. 61 children admitted to the Pediatrics Department of a hospital in the Northern Region of Portugal were enrolled. RESULTS: The ranged age of the participants was 6 to 15 (10,61 ± 2,66 years), and most were male (52.46%; n = 32). The mean score in the three domains was 128 (77.11%), reflecting children's high satisfaction with the nursing care provided during hospitalization. The domain most valued was Nurse Characteristics, while the least valued was Nursing Environment. CONCLUSION: Results provide essential input for the dimensions to be considered when planning nursing care for children, managing care, and the physical environment in the wards. IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE: These results highlight the need to hear children's voices. This must encourage nurses to reflect on how children evaluate nursing care and, by doing so, to increase the quality of nursing care provided in Pediatrics settings.

RESUMEN

To evaluate the association between nutritional risk and functionality of children and adolescents hospitalized with COVID-19 at admission and discharge. METHODS: Retrospective cross-sectional study with patients under 19 years old, positive for SARS-COV-2 by RT-PCR test, from February 2020 to May 2022. The STRONGKids screening (Screening Tool Risk On Nutritional Status and Growth) was used to assess nutritional risk on hospital admission and the Functional Status Scale (FSS-Brazil) to determine the functionality of patients on admission and discharge. Data was collected from hospital medical records. Poisson regressions with crude robust variance were used to test the association between nutritional risk and functional status at admission, with adjustments for the age, length of stay, and presence of complex chronic conditions. RESULTS: Of the 217 patients, 55.7% (n = 121) were boys with a median age of 6 years (IQ 0-12), 58.5% (n = 127) had at least one complex chronic condition, 64% (n = 139) had medium/high nutritional risk, and 23.9% (n = 52) had some degree of dysfunctionality upon admission and 14.6% (n = 31) upon discharge. By associating STRONGKids and the FSS-Brasil of hospital admission, it was observed that children with low nutritional risk had a mean global FSS lower (6.4 ± 0.7) than children with medium/high nutritional risk (7. 7 ± 2.8; p < 0.001). Children with low nutritional risk on admission also had a lower mean (6.1 ± 0.59) on the FSS at hospital discharge than children with medium/high nutritional risk (7.1 ± 2.5; p < 0.001). After adjustments, it was identified that the addition of one STRONGKids point increases by 36% (PR 1.36; 95%CI 1.15-1.62) the probability of the patient presenting some degree of functional impairment on admission.    Conclusion: The study found a positive association between nutritional risk and functional impairment in hospitalized children and adolescents with COVID-19 on admission, even after adjusting for age, length of stay, and complex chronic conditions. Furthermore, patients with medium/high nutritional risk at admission also had worse functionality, both on admission and at discharge. WHAT IS KNOWN: • Children and adolescents infected with COVID-19 tend to exhibit milder symptoms and lower hospitalization rates compared to adults, although severe cases and complications can occur. • A paucity of targeted investigations exists regarding the correlation between nutritional risk and functionality in children and adolescents with COVID-19. WHAT IS NEW: • Children and adolescents with COVID-19 who presented with medium to high nutritional risk upon hospital admission demonstrated functional impairments, both at admission and hospital discharge.

RESUMEN

Introducción: El adecuado desarrollo psicomotor es básico para diversos procesos físicos, cognitivos y de socialización de los niños. Varios factores pueden afectar dicho proceso, entre ellos la hospitalización, por su relación con experiencias estresantes y la ruptura de los ambientes que rodean al infante. Objetivo: Analizar posibles factores relacionados con el desarrollo psicomotor de niños hospitalizados. Métodos: Se realizó un estudio transversal y analítico en un servicio de hospitalización pediátrica de Cali, Colombia, que atiende mayormente a una población de bajo nivel socioeconómico. Se incluyeron 100 niños entre 0 y 5 años, con estabilidad hemodinámica y clínica. El día del egreso hospitalario se evaluaron el desarrollo psicomotor, con la Escala Abreviada del Desarrollo, y el estado nutricional. Se indagaron datos socioeconómicos, antecedentes prenatales, perinatales y posnatales. Resultados: La mayoría de la población se clasificó en nivel medio de desarrollo psicomotor, con un índice de masa corporal y peso para la edad normales. El 65 % tenía un bajo nivel socioeconómico. La estancia hospitalaria fue de 3,9 ± 2 días sin relación significativa con el desarrollo psicomotor. Las puntuaciones más bajas de la Escala Abreviada del Desarrollo se relacionaron con el estado de malnutrición (p= 0,011) y el bajo nivel socioeconómico (p= 0,001). Conclusiones: El riesgo de retrasos del desarrollo psicomotor en pacientes pediátricos hospitalizados se relacionó con la malnutrición y el bajo nivel socioeconómico. Esto demuestra el impacto de los determinantes sociales y reafirma la importancia de la atención primaria en grupos con desventaja social.

Introduction: Adequate psychomotor development is basic to various physical, cognitive, and socialization processes in children. Several factors can affect this process, among them hospitalization, due to its relationship with stressful experiences and the disruption of the environment surrounding the infant. Objective: To analyze possible factors related to psychomotor development in hospitalized children. Methods: A cross-sectional and analytical study was carried out in a pediatric hospitalization service in Cali, Colombia, which mainly attends a population of low socioeconomic level. We included 100 children between 0 and 5 years of age, with hemodynamic and clinical stability. On the day of hospital discharge, psychomotor development was assessed with the Abbreviated Developmental Scale and nutritional status. Socioeconomic data, prenatal, perinatal and postnatal history were inquired. Results: The majority of the population was classified at a medium level of psychomotor development, with a normal body mass index and weight for age. Sixty-five percent had a low socioeconomic level. Hospital stay was 3.9 ± 2 days with no significant relationship with psychomotor development. Lower Abbreviated Developmental Abbreviated Scale scores were related to malnutrition status (p = 0.011) and low socioeconomic status (p = 0.001). Conclusions: The risk of psychomotor developmental delays in hospitalized pediatric patients was related to malnutrition and low socioeconomic status. This demonstrates the impact of social determinants and reaffirms the importance of primary care in socially disadvantaged groups.

RESUMEN

ABSTRACT Objective: to perform the cross-cultural adaptation of the Children Care Quality at Hospital instrument to the Portuguese language spoken in Brazil. Method: this is a methodological study on the adaptation of an instrument designed to assess the quality of nursing care from the perspective of school-aged children. For content validity evidence, 13 experts participated, and in the pre-test phase, the instrument was applied to a sample of 40 hospitalized children. The analysis was done using the Content Validity Coefficient and the second-order agreement coefficient to verify inter-rater agreement; while in the pre-test, reliability was calculated using the Intraclass Correlation Coefficient and Cronbach's alpha. Results: the total content validity evidence coefficient regarding the assessment of equivalences and content ranged from 0.876 to 0.993, and the second-order agreement coefficient ranged from 0.935 to 0.951, demonstrating an almost perfect agreement. In the pre-test with children, both the Intraclass Correlation Coefficient of 0.60 and Cronbach's alpha of 0.690 were considered satisfactory. In the adapted version, some terms were improved, and others were kept with the addition of explanatory notes. Conclusion: the Brazilian version of the Children Care Quality at Hospital showed adequate content validity evidence to measure children's satisfaction with the quality of nursing care. In the clinical context of pediatric nursing, the instrument strengthens care paradigms that take into account the child's dignity, respecting their right to be heard and to evaluate the care received.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: The Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics/American Society for Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition (AND/ASPEN) published malnutrition guidelines in 2014. In 2015, our institution implemented a quality improvement project focused on malnutrition identification with the goal to improve the diagnosis of malnutrition in hospitalized children. METHODS: Our project included three approaches: education, nutrition assessment, and documentation initiatives. Education initiatives focused on physicians at all levels of training. Nutrition screening was completed on all patients admitted to our institution. Registered dietitians (RDs) conducted nutrition assessments and identified and documented malnutrition based on AND/ASPEN guidelines. Documentation initiatives included development of automatic text and template changes to allow import of RD-assigned malnutrition diagnosis into physician documentation. We met with members of our clinical documentation integrity team regularly to review the results of these initiatives starting in 2016. RESULTS: The total diagnosed cases of malnutrition increased from 208 cases in 2016 at the start of our monitoring to >800 cases per year in 2020-2022. Unspecified (no severity assigned) protein calorie malnutrition as a percentage of total malnutrition diagnoses decreased from 36.9% in 2016 to <10% since 2018. Children with severe malnutrition have remained the largest portion of children with a malnutrition diagnosis, with >40% of children with malnutrition diagnosed with severe malnutrition. CONCLUSION: Our education and documentation initiatives have led to both improved diagnosis of malnutrition and accurate identification and documentation of malnutrition severity. These initiatives could be utilized to improve malnutrition diagnosis and documentation at other institutions caring for hospitalized children.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the evidence available in the literature on the pedagogical practices developed with children through hospital classes. METHOD: An integrative review was conducted on July 20, 2022, in Scopus, MEDLINE/PubMed, CINAHL, LILACS, Web of Science, ERIC, Educ@, and Scielo using the following descriptors in English, Portuguese, and Spanish, extracted from DECS/MeSH, CINAHL, Brased/INEP, and ERIC Thesaurus: "Child, Hospitalized", "Education, Special", "Education Department, Hospital", "Hospital Classroom", "Hospital Class", "Child Rearing", "Educational Practices", "Early Childhood Education", "Education", "Hospital Pedagogy", and "Hospital Special Class". No time restriction was applied. The EndNot Web reference manager and the Rayyan software were used to select studies, and later, the methodological rigor and level of evidence were assessed. RESULTS: The 22 articles described pedagogical practices, including ludic activities, individualized work, working with regular school content, stimulation activities, pedagogical and dialogic listening, learning based on the exchange of knowledge, video games, computational robotics, and theatrical performance. CONCLUSION: Although difficulties were identified in implementing pedagogical practices in the hospital, they were shown to allow educational continuity and clinical improvement of hospitalized children. IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE: Studies on the educational process within the hospital setting can contribute to the development of public policies and the guarantee of the right to education for hospitalized children. DESCRIPTORS: Special education; Hospital education department; Hospitalized child; Child rearing; Teaching.

RESUMEN

Objective: This study aimed to identify clinical bottle-feeding techniques practiced by nurses for children with cleft lip and palate experiencing feeding difficulties. Methods: A qualitative descriptive design was used. Five anonymous questionnaires were distributed to each hospital, and 1,109 hospitals with obstetrics, neonatology, or pediatric dentistry wards in Japan were enrolled in the survey between December 2021 and January 2022. Participants were nurses working for over 5 years providing nursing care for children with cleft lip and palate. The questionnaire comprised open-ended questions about the feeding techniques across four dimensions: preparation before bottle-feeding, nipple insertion methods, sucking assistance, and criteria for stopping bottle-feeding. The qualitative data obtained were categorized according to meaning similarity and analyzed. Results: A total of 410 valid responses were obtained. The findings regarding the feeding techniques in each dimension were as follows: seven categories (e.g., improving child's mouth movement, keeping child's breath calm), 27 sub-categories in preparation before bottle-feeding; four categories (e.g., closing the cleft using the nipple to create negative pressure in oral cavity, inserting the nipple to not touch the cleft), 11 sub-categories in nipple insertion methods; five categories (e.g., facilitating awakening, creating negative pressure in oral cavity), 13 sub-categories in sucking assistance; and four categories (e.g., reduced awakening level, worsening vital signs), 16 sub-categories in criteria for stopping bottle-feeding. Most participants responded that they would like to learn bottle-feeding techniques for children with cleft lip and palate who have feeding difficulties. Conclusion: Many bottle-feeding techniques were identified to address disease-characterized conditions. However, the techniques were found to be conflicting: some inserted the nipple to close the cleft to create negative pressure in the child's oral cavity, while others inserted it without touching the cleft to prevent ulceration on the nasal septum. Although these techniques were used by nurses, the effectiveness of the methods has not been assessed. Future intervention studies are needed to determine each technique's benefit or potential harm.

RESUMEN

Background: The clinical characteristics, disease progression and outcome in children affected by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection appear significantly milder compared to older individuals. Nevertheless, the trends in hospitalization and clinical characteristics in the pediatric population seem to be different over time across the different epidemic waves. Objective: Our aim was to understand the impact of the different COVID-19 variants in the pediatric population hospitalized in the Pediatric Departments of the Public Hospital in the Greater Paris area by the analysis performed with the Assistance Publique-Hopitaux de Paris (AP-HP) Health Data Warehouse. Methods: This is a retrospective cohort study including 9,163 patients under 18 years of age, hospitalized from 1 March 2020 to 22 March 2022, in the Paris area, with confirmed infection by SARS-CoV-2. Three mutually exclusive groups with decreasing severity (Pediatric Inflammatory Multisystem Syndrome (PIMS), symptomatic infection, mild or asymptomatic infection) were defined and described regarding demography, medical history, complication of the SARS-CoV-2 infection, and treatment during admission. Temporal evolution was described by defining three successive waves (March-September 2020, October 2020-October 2021, and November 2021-March 2022) corresponding to the emergence of the successive variants. Results: In the study period, 9,163 pediatric patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection were hospitalized in 21 AP-HP hospitals. The number of patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection increased over time for each wave of the pandemic (the mean number of patients per month during the first wave was 332, 322 during the 2nd, and 595 during the third wave). In the medical history, the most associated concomitant disease was chronic respiratory disease. Patients hospitalized during the third wave presented a higher incidence of pulmonary involvement (10.2% compared to 7% and 6.5% during the first and second waves, respectively). The highest incidence of PIMS was observed during the first and second waves (4.2% in the first and second waves compared to 2.3% in the 3rd wave). Discussion: This analysis highlighted the high incidence of hospitalized children in the Greater Paris Area during the third wave of SARS-CoV-2 pandemic corresponding to the Omicron Covid-19 variant, which is probably an expression of a concomitant SARS-CoV-2, while a decreased incidence of PIMS complication was observed during the same period.

RESUMEN

PURPOSE: Most children go through their childhood without being hospitalized. For a child, being hospitalized may be a disturbing and unfamiliar experience. Pediatric institutions promote parental presence and family-centered care, yet not all parents are able to stay with their children. Holding the child's voice central to the phenomenon, the aim of this study was to explore how parental accompaniment and absence shape a child's hospitalization experience. DESIGN AND METHODS: A phenomenological study was implemented, and children ages 7-11 years old were included if they were in the hospital for at least 24 h with a parent present or 12 h without a parent present. Deriving from the interviews of children, themes were identified to unearth the meaning of children's lived experiences. RESULTS: Twelve school-age children shared their hospitalization experiences. The findings of this study are organized around the following themes: (a) participating in care; (b) being on the road to recovery; (c) being a kid, still; (d) being accompanied - having a familiar face; and (e) being unaccompanied - yearning but understanding. CONCLUSIONS: Being in the hospital was not significantly different when parents were absent, but children preferred their parents to stay. Being in the hospital was not a negative experience. Hospitalized children were attentive, independent, understanding, and resilient. PRACTICE IMPLICATIONS: Children in this study illuminate the need to listen to children's voices. Understanding the experiences of hospitalized children provides pediatric nurses with insight on supporting the patients and families they care for.

RESUMEN

Pediatric palliative care (PPC) provides an extra layer of support for families caring for a child with complex heart disease as these patients often experience lifelong morbidities with frequent hospitalizations and risk of early mortality. PPC referral at the time of heart disease diagnosis provides early involvement in the disease trajectory, allowing PPC teams to longitudinally support patients and families with symptom management, complex medical decision-making, and advanced care planning. We analyzed 113 hospitalized pediatric patients with a primary diagnosis of heart disease and a PPC consult to identify timing of first PPC consultation in relation to diagnosis, complex chronic conditions (CCC), and death. The median age of heart disease diagnosis was 0 days with a median of two CCCs while PPC consultation did not occur until a median age of 77 days with a median of four CCCs. Median time between PPC consult and death was 33 days (interquartile range: 7-128). Death often occurred in the intensive care unit ( n = 36, 67%), and the most common mode was withdrawal of life-sustaining therapies ( n = 31, 57%). PPC referral often occurred in the context of medical complexity and prolonged hospitalization. Referral close to the time of heart disease diagnosis would allow patients and families to fully utilize PPC benefits that exist outside of end-of-life care and may influence the mode and location of death. PPC consultation should be considered at the time of heart disease diagnosis, especially in neonates and infants with CCCs.

RESUMEN

ABSTRACT Objective: to know nurses' perception in relation to the Nursing Process directed to newborns in a usual risk maternity ward. Method: an action-research study was conducted between September 2021 and January 2022 with nurses from a usual risk maternity ward in southern Brazil. The data collected through focus groups were submitted to content analysis. Results: the organized and analyzed data resulted in two thematic categories, namely: Nursing process: a self-reflection and self-criticism inducing device; and Nursing process: a (re)signifying care tool for newborns. In synthesis, it is shown that the Nursing Process is a driver of best practices in the Obstetric and Neonatal Nursing context. Conclusions: the Nursing Process directed to the care of newborns in a usual risk maternity ward is not only constituted as a theoretical-methodological tool to guide and qualify the care provided, but as a self-reflection and professional self-criticism inducing technology, with a view to the development of new knowledge and practices both in the scope of management and in Nursing care.

RESUMEN Objetivo: conocer la percepción de los enfermeros en relación al proceso de Enfermería dirigido a recién nacidos en una maternidad de riesgo habitual. Método: investigación-acción realizada entre septiembre de 2021 y enero de 2022 con enfermeros de una maternidad de riesgo habitual en el sur de Brasil. Los datos recolectados a través de grupos focales fueron sometidos a análisis de contenido. Resultados: los datos organizados y analizados derivaron en dos categorías temáticas, a saber: Proceso de Enfermería: dispositivo inductor de autorreflexión y autocrítica; y Proceso de Enfermería: una herramienta (re)significativa para el cuidado del recién nacido. En resumen, se demuestra que el Proceso de Enfermería impulsa buenas prácticas en el contexto de la Enfermería Obstétrica y Neonatal. Conclusiones: el Proceso de Enfermería dirigido al cuidado del recién nacido en una maternidad de riesgo habitual no es solamente una herramienta teórico-metodológica para orientar y calificar la atención provista, sino una tecnología que induce a la autorreflexión y autocrítica profesional, con miras al desarrollo de nuevos conocimientos y prácticas tanto en la gestión como en el cuidado de Enfermería.

RESUMO Objetivo: Conhecer a percepção de enfermeiras em relação ao processo de enfermagem direcionado a recém-nascidos em uma maternidade de risco habitual. Método: Pesquisa-ação conduzida, entre setembro/2021 e janeiro/2022, com enfermeiras de uma maternidade de risco habitual do Sul do Brasil. Os dados coletados, por meio de grupos focais, foram submetidos à análise de conteúdo. Resultados: Os dados organizados e analisados resultaram em duas categorias temáticas, quais sejam: Processo de enfermagem: dispositivo indutor de autorreflexão e autocrítica; e Processo de enfermagem: ferramenta (re) significadora do cuidado ao recém-nascido. Demonstra-se, em síntese, que o processo de enfermagem é impulsionador de melhores práticas no contexto da enfermagem obstétrica e neonatal. Conclusões: O processo de enfermagem direcionado ao cuidado de recém-nascidos em uma maternidade de risco habitual não se constitui apenas como uma ferramenta teórico-metodológica para nortear e qualificar o cuidado, mas em uma tecnologia indutora de autorreflexão e autocrítica profissional, com vistas ao desenvolvimento de novos saberes e práticas tanto em âmbito da gestão quanto da assistência de enfermagem.

RESUMEN

Objetivo: apreender as perspectivas dos pais ou cuidadores sobre a necessidade de levar a criança adoecida ao hospital e as vivências durante a internação em tempos de pandemia de covid-19. Método: pesquisa exploratória, de abordagem qualitativa, desenvolvida com pais ou responsáveis de crianças internadas no setor de pediatria de um hospital de ensino, acometidas por outras doenças que não a covid-19. A coleta de dados ocorreu por meio de entrevistas áudio-gravadas. Foi empregada a análise de conteúdo, modalidade temática. Resultados: a população do estudo foi constituída por 18 entrevistados. Após leitura exaustiva do corpus duas categorias foram formuladas: "sentimentos e perspectivas ao procurar o serviço de saúde" e "hospitalização durante a pandemia e importância dos profissionais de saúde". Considerações finais: os familiares das crianças adoecidas vivenciaram medo, estresse, angústia, e preocupação ao procurar o atendimento hospitalar no contexto da pandemia, e alguns chegaram a adiar a busca pela assistência. Durante a internação esses sentimentos foram superados pelo conhecimento da organização do hospital e as orientações dos profissionais de saúde foram cruciais. É indispensável conduzir novas pesquisas que fundamentem o planejamento de ações e a reorganização dos serviços de saúde infantil.

Objective: To learn the perspectives of parents or caregivers on the need to take the sick child to hospital and the experiences during hospitalization in times of the covid-19 pandemic. Method: exploratory, qualitative-based research conducted with parents or guardians of children in a teaching hospital's pediatrics sector, affected by diseases other than covid-19. Data collection took place through audio-recorded interviews. The analysis of content, a thematic modality, was used. Results: the study population consisted of 18 respondents. After an exhaustive reading of the corpus, two categories were formulated: "feelings and perspectives when looking for the health service" and "hospitalization during the pandemic and importance of health professionals". Final considerations: the families of the sick children experienced fear, stress, distress, and concern when seeking hospital care in the context of the pandemic, and some even postponed the search for assistance. During hospitalization these feelings were overcome by the knowledge of the hospital organization and the guidance of the health professionals was crucial. It is indispensable to conduct new research that will inform the planning of actions and the reorganization of child health services.

RESUMEN

ABSTRACT Objective: to analyze pediatric patient safety in the administration of blood components. Method: a documentary and retrospective study, developed at a hospital in the Brazilian Midwest region. Data collection took place through medical records and 234 transfusions were identified, performed in 90 patients aged from zero to twelve years old, hospitalized between July and December 2020. An instrument based on good practice guidelines about blood components was used. Descriptive and inferential statistics were used for data analysis. Results: the transfusions were predominantly performed in breastfeeding infants (71.1%). Blood transfusions in critical sectors stood out (86.3%), as well as with indication of a clinical order (87.2%) and prescription of packed red blood cells (75.3%). The Nursing reports identified adverse events (n=05) and incidents (n=13) that were associated with inadequacies between the prescribed and infused volumes and the request and administration time (p<0.001), although no notification was formalized in the institution during the period. Conclusion: the administration of blood components presented nonconformities, which results in risk situations for pediatric patients.

RESUMEN

ABSTRACT Objective: To understand nursing team professionals' strategies to include the family in painful procedures performed on hospitalized children. Method: An exploratory-descriptive, qualitative study, carried out with nursing professionals. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews, guided by a script of topics, transcribed and submitted to thematic content analysis, in the light of Symbolic Interactionism, discussed considering the Family-Centered Care philosophy assumptions. Results: Two central categories emerged, "Theoretical perspective: the family as a care agent in painful procedures" and "Practical perspective: experiences, challenges and strategies in painful procedures for family inclusion", with their respective subcategories. Conclusion: Nursing professionals have theoretical knowledge about family inclusion in painful procedures based on the assumptions: Family-Centered Care: dignity and respect; information sharing; joint participation; and family collaboration. However, knowledge is not applied in clinical practice; consequence of the interaction between beliefs and attitudes unfavorable to family presence.

RESUMEN Objetivo: Comprender las estrategias de los profesionales del equipo de enfermería para incluir a la familia en los procedimientos dolorosos realizados en niños hospitalizados.
