本研究的目的是确定有尊严的死亡的含义和干预措施，护士在儿科肿瘤，以促进儿童有尊严的死亡。本文以符号互动理论为理论框架，采用叙事研究方法。数据收集从八名护士在儿科肿瘤科的公立医院在圣保罗通过半结构化访谈。数据分析揭示了五个类别：在决策中没有自主权，照顾家人，提供身体舒适，重视人性化护理和学习处理死亡和临终关怀。这项研究有助于扩展对这一护理过程的理解，并假设了一个理论框架，该框架整合了构成超越临床和生物需求的护理的知识和行动。
The objective of this study was to identify the meaning of dignified death and the interventions employed by nurses in pediatric oncology to promote dignified death for children. We used Symbolic Interaction Theory as the theoretical framework and narrative research methods. The data were collected from eight nurses in the pediatric oncology unit of a public hospital in Sao Paulo through semi-structured interviews. The data analysis revealed five categories: feeling no autonomy in decision-making, caring for the family, offering physical comfort, valuing humanized care and learning to deal with death and dying. This study helps to extend the understanding of this process of care and postulates a theoretical framework that integrates the knowledge and actions that constitute care that transcends clinical and biological needs.
