| Sumario: | The act of caring for a child with cancer requires a different look in the communicating difficult news in pediatric cancer palliative care. The objectives of the research were: to map in scientific productions the strategies used by nurses in the communication of difficult news in pediatric cancer palliative care; to describe and analyze based on the levels of evidence the strategies used in the communication of difficult news in pediatric cancer palliative care. This is an integrative review, with the PICO question: What strategies are applied by nurses in the communication of difficult news in pediatric oncological palliative care? LILACS, CINAHL, Scopus and MEDLINE databases were searched from the descriptors: pediatric nursing, oncology, communication. From the results, two categories were constructed about the strategies used by nurses to communicate difficult news. Most of the studies belonged to the category called humanitarian strategies, which presented strategies such as: support, empathic dialogue, active listening and respect. The second category called scientific strategies presented strategies such as: use of communications protocols and multidisciplinary team. It is through these care strategies that nurses strengthen the bond with family members and the child. The findings showed a lack of publications on the subject, as well as the absence of articles with strong evidence. |
