[SUPPORT TO FAMILIES OF CRITICALLY ILL PATIENTS]
Introduction:
The hospitalization of the sick person in the family creates anxiety, stress, etc... The families in this situation have no tools to face reality and ignore their needs.
Objective:
To identify the relationship between family needs and nursing interventions.
Methods:
We conducted a literature review in the databases Pub-Med, CINAHL, Cuidatge, Cuiden and ScienceDirect. After including items that meet the selection criteria were selected 18 items
Results And Discussion:
In selected items were analyzed the necessities generated by the hospitalization of a family member in the ICU, performances, interventions and proposals for improvement that are proposed to meet the needs and constraints and reluctance that occur in practice.
Conclusions:
Although the literature identifies the needs of the family, the problems encountered and solutions proposed, the nurses do not integrate these needs into their operations.
