Este trabalho objetivou acompanhar o desenvolvimento de oito adolescentes, quatro meninas e quatro meninos, acolhidos em duas instituições e seus processos de desligamento institucional. Realizou-se um estudo longitudinal com base no procedimento de inserção ecológica, utilizando-se na coleta de dados diários de campo, conversas informais e roteiros de entrevistas semi-estruturadas. Os resultados foram organizados em categorias temáticas e analisados com base na Teoria Bioecológica do Desenvolvimento Humano. Apesar de a maioria dos adolescentes ter relatado manter vínculo e sentimentos positivos para com pelo menos um membro familiar e dos esforços das equipes técnicas das instituições, verificou-se dificuldade na efetivação da reinserção familiar. Conclui-se que, além da dificuldade de maior vinculação entre a instituição e alguns jovens, demonstrada pela evasão de quatro participantes, outro empecilho à reinserção é a dificuldade das famílias na superação das suas carências materiais e dos conflitos nas relações.
Objective: Cancer illness is a stressful event that affects children’s quality of life. This study verified the association between coping and quality of life in 13 children with cancer (6 to 12 years old) from a public hospital in the Southeastern region of the country. Methods: The participants answered the Hospitalization Coping Scale and Pediatric Quality of Life 3.0 (Cancer Module). Descriptive and inferential statistical analyses were applied. A high average of adaptive coping and coping behaviors, such as talking, playing, and taking medicine, were observed. Results: The results suggest a potential positive correlation between quality of life related to the domain nausea, which also showed high scores, and adaptive coping, demonstrating children’s difficulty in dealing with nausea, even after using adaptive coping strategies, and this domain was significant in reducing the quality of life perceived. Conclusion: Understanding coping and qualitywww of life may steer intervention in Pediatric Oncology.
