Resumo: OBJECTIVE: Understand the impact of critical-illness news on the experience of family members at an Intensive Care Unit. METHOD: Phenomenological approach according to Van Manen's method. Open interviews were held with 21 family members. From analysis and interpretation of the data, three essential themes were identified: the unexpected; the pronouncement of death; and the impact on self-caring within the family. The study complied with the ethical principles inherent to research involving humans. RESULTS: The unexpected news and death of the sick person influence the well-being and self-care of family members, affecting their ability for analysis and decision making. It was observed that the family experiences the news with suffering, mainly due to the anticipation arising from the events. FINAL CONSIDERATIONS: The humanity of nurses was revealed in response to the needs of the family. In view of the requirements for information, it was verified that the information transmitted allowed them to become aware of themselves, to become empowered in their daily lives and to alleviate the emotional burden experienced.

Método: Abordagem fenomenológica segundo Van Manen. Realizaram-se entrevistas abertas a 21 pessoas da família. Na análise e interpretação dos dados identificaram-se três temas essenciais: o inesperado; o prenúncio de morte; o impacto no cuidar de si. O estudo cumpriu os princípios éticos que lhe são inerentes. Resultado: O inesperado da notícia e a possibilidade de morte da pessoa doente influenciam o bem-estar e o autocuidado das pessoas da família, condicionando a sua capacidade de análise e decisão. Constatou-se que a família vive a notícia com sofrimento, principalmente pela antecipação que faz dos acontecimentos. Considerações finais: A humanidade dos enfermeiros revelou-se na resposta às necessidades da família. Face à necessidade de informação, verificou-se que a informação transmitida lhes permitiu, consciencializarem-se, capacitarem-se no quotidiano e aliviar a carga emocional experienciada.Veritati - Repositório Institucional da Universidade Católica PortuguesaMendes, Anabela Pereira2021-04-16T15:31:09Z2018-01-012018-01-01T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10400.14/32679eng0034-716710.1590/0034-7167-2016-01638505507209929324960000429060300024info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2023-09-26T01:43:25Zoai:repositorio.ucp.pt:10400.14/32679Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T18:26:24.197335Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
