Abstract
MELO, Leonardo Nogueira et al. Evaluation of critical transportation of patients: A systematic review. Enferm. glob. [online]. 2020, vol.19, n.57, pp.615-647. Epub Mar 09, 2020. ISSN 1695-6141. https://dx.doi.org/eglobal.19.1.368101.
Objective
To evaluate, according to the literature, the main factors considered facilitators and/or aggravating in the transportation of patients in critical condition.
Method
This study is a systematic review performed using the PICO method.
Results
The selected journals comprised a time space in the last 10 years, with six journals eligible, based on the established criteria. The results report that the themes found in this review demonstrate an alignment between care practice and literature, but, for a transportation without adverse events, there must be a union between the management and the professionals involved.
Conclusion
Although the findings demonstrate a great concern regarding the quality of care and team preparation, the authors believe that more studies should be encouraged since teamwork, despite being complex, is the key to performing the procedures with effectiveness.
