Descrição
Resumo:Objective: to carry out a systematic review of the literature (SRL) of the potential articles and the main bibliographic references on punitive culture in patient safety, in the period between 2008 and 2018, for their subsequent classification and selection, using explicit and reproducible criteria of the articles that were finally included in the study, to finally synthesize the data obtained and interpret the results. Method: The PRISMA-type methodological proposal is an SRL with qualitative compilation and with a retrospective design. Four databases were searched: EBSCO Discovery service, PubMed, Lilacs, and ScienceDirect. 3,709 and subsequently 15,008 entries were reviewed. Results: After reading the titles, abstracts and full texts, 17 articles that had used the survey (HSOPSC) as an evaluation tool and 12 more articles were selected, where their findings were important for the research. Although most of the selected articles did not target the subject of punitive culture in patient safety, there were findings showing that the punitive culture is still in force, with a positive response for the dimension “punitive response to error” of less than 50 % in all selected studies. Conclusion: The culture dimension continues to have the same negative connotation among health professionals,  which is reflected in the results of the survey.
