Jean Watson's theory is based on the humanistic aspects and on the ethical and spiritual dimensions of care, considering the characteristics of each individual and their bio-psycho-spiritual-social needs, which can contribute fundamentally to the development of holistic critical thinking and to the role of the nurse in care, teaching and research fields.

Objective: To characterize the coping and quality of life profile of patients on kidney transplant waiting lists. Methods: Cross-sectional study with a quantitative approach, which entailed interviews with patients over 18 years of age, able to read and write, and on a kidney transplant waiting list. Patients waiting for more than one organ were excluded. The results were presented using descriptive statistics -absolute and relative distribution (n -%), as well as central tendency and variability measurements. The data distribution of the continuous variables was analyzed by the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test. In the comparison of the relative scores of the styles and dimensions for quality of life between two independent groups, the Mann-Whitney U test was used. When the continuous variables were compared with the types of treatment (with number of cases over five), the Kruskal-Wallis post-hoc Dunn test was used. The linearity relationship between the scores of the Jalowiec Coping Scale (JCS) styles and the SF-36 dimensions was determined through the Spearman correlation coefficient. The data was analyzed using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences, version 20.0 (SPSS Inc., Chicago, IL, USA, 2008) for Windows. For the statistical decision criteria, a level of significance of 5% was adopted. Results: Of the total 58 patients, 30 (51.7%) were men, with a mean age of 44.6 (±15.2) years. The coping profile was self-reliant (42) and optimistic (6). The dimensions with the best quality of life were: pain (67.2%), social aspects (66.6) and mental health (65.4). There was a significant correlation (r<0.333) between the palliative style and vitality (r=-0.288; p=0.028) and the palliative style and social aspects (r=-0.283; p=0.031). There was also a significant correlation between general health status and the emotive (r=-0.424; p=0.025) and palliative styles (r=-0.524; p=0.004), as well as between vitality and the palliative style (r=-0.530; p=0.004). Among men, there was a significant correlation (0.300
Objetivo: investigar produções científicas acerca da humanização da assistência de enfermagem em unidade de terapia intensiva neonatal, publicadas em bases de dados científicas. Método: revisão sistemática de abordagem qualitativa acerca da humanização da assistência de enfermagem com pais em unidade de terapia intensiva neonatal. A análise de dados foi realizada a partir da Análise de Conteúdo proposta por Bardin. Resultados: emergiram três categorias: Percepção dos pais sobre o cuidado prestado na unidade de terapia intensiva neonatal; Humanização nas relações entre pais e equipe de enfermagem na unidade de terapia intensiva neonatal e Percepção dos pais sobre o cuidado prestado na unidade de terapia intensiva neonatal. Conclusões: ficou evidente a necessidade de educação permanente da equipe assistencial na unidade de terapia intensiva neonatal. Além de oferecer mais subsídios aos trabalhadores, os hospitais vêm qualificando os profissionais com o objetivo de tornar suas práticas assistenciais com foco no paciente e seus familiares mais humanas e reflexivas. Descritores: Humanização da assistência. Enfermagem. Pais. Unidades de terapia intensiva neonatal.
