Descripción
Sumario:Objective: understand what the main psychic influences of palliative oncological careare on the perception of nurses are. Method: the research is descriptive exploratory,with qualitative approach. The eligible research field was the inpatient sector of ahospital unit specialized in palliative care. This unit belongs to a national referralcenter for cancer treatment, located in the Estado do Rio de Janeiro. Data collectionoccurred from a semi-structured interview and the study universe consisted of18 nurses. The collected data were analyzed with QualiQuantiSoft (based on thecollective subject discourse theory). Results: two of the collective subject discourses(CSD) emerged with their central ideas: CSD1 - "negative influence from palliativeoncological care on nurses’ “perception” of nurses and CSD2 - "positive influence frompalliative oncological attention on nurses' perception". Conclusion: the influence ofwork on nurses' behavior is evident, being in some moments a source of pleasureand, in others, a source of suffering. We found that conflicts in the multidisciplinaryteam, organizational conflicts and physical exhaustion were the categories with thegreatest impact on psychological distress. In view of the characteristics described bynurses in the voice of the CSD, it is necessary to develop an intervention practice inorder to minimize the psychological distress of nurses in palliative oncological care.
