RESUMO
This work aims at presenting a reflection on the method of research in the health field. Some questions are presented which involve the use of the method of natural sciences and that of social sciences in an attempt at understanding some methodological problems concerning the former and the latter. Problems related to the methodological issues in the elaboration of investigation projects in this field and the need for continuous discussion are pointed out as to: the differentiation of the nature of the object of investigation; the context in which a determined problem is identified; the type of question which is asked when it is problematized; technical procedures, the theory and the interpretative scheme on which it is founded; the dichotomy concerning the subject/object of knowledge; the researcher's neutrality; the concept of casualty.

The purpose of this article is to make a critical analysis about power relationships, which permeate daily professional and/or institutional actions in the hospital environment. This reflection is based on a concrete situation experienced by a group of nursing professors from a state university in Paraná, which unleashed conflicts concerning interprofessional and interinstitutional power relationships. This study focuses on power relationships in the hospital emphasizing the interrelations that characterize nursing practice. We believe that these relationships can only be understood, reflected upon and rebuilt in the context of daily practice, as new ways of collective action are sought.

This purpose of this research was to verify the perception of the mother who has her child sick and hospitalized, about the importance of her permanence during the hospitalization time for the maintenance of the affective child-family link. Empiric data were collected with mother's of hospitalized children, who were accompanying the hospitalization of their children in a public hospital at the Cascavel city in the West of Paraná, Brazil, through semi-structured interviews. The analysis of these data demonstrated that the mothers recognize the importance of staying with their children in such a stress time like the hospitalization time, however, the external facts that influence their daily life, often do not allow them to stay with their children.

In this study, the authors have as a goal to discuss the care-investigation interface in the caring practice of Nursing in the hospital ambit, starting from their professional experiences. The bases of the discussion is the career/cared being. We surpass care as the object of research and the importance of investigation for the improvement of care quality. Interdisciplinarity is pointed out as one of the possible resources for the construction of integral care and of a therapeutical action that exceeds the biological, in a perspective of co-participation, as well as the need of promoting and stimulating the accomplishment of investigations in the units of hospital care. The meaning of the investigation about care goes beyond its internality, requiring technical competence, ethical compromise and coherence among the different areas of knowledge which involves it. We enlighten the need of overcoming the dichotomies of caring/investigating, researching while caring, and caring while researching. We stress out the importance of creating research groups in Universities; the stimulus to the accomplishment of graduation courses with leave-out time from work; the availability of financial resources; and the incentive to subscribe periodicals and to acquire books.
