“…Relatives research information directed to the health needs presented by the child. In this respect, the virtual network is often used as an educational medium in which family members learn about pathologies, indicated treatments and care provided (24) . These data corroborate those found in this study, in which relatives performed online searches related to gestation, prepartum, delivery and puerperium, whether they were directed to the mother or to the NB.…”

Objective: To analyze the use of online information on health/illness by relatives of premature infants admitted to the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. Method: Exploratory, qualitative study conducted at a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit from a University Hospital in the state capital of southern Brazil, with 33 relatives of hospitalized premature infants. The data were collected through a semi-structured interview and were submitted to thematic analysis, with the aid of the software Interface de R pour les Analyses Multidimensionnelles de Textes et de Questionnaires (IRAMUTEQ ® ). Results: From the data analysis, two thematic categories emerged: Online information on health/illness researched by relatives; and Online sources of information consulted by relatives. Final considerations: Health professionals need to consider the use of online information by relatives in the care process, adding it in their practice in relation to the informational needs presented, and stimulating spaces for dialogue about the data found.

“…On the other hand, parents and healthcare professionals underlined the importance of the evidence based information on e-Powered Parents, providing parents with reliable and up-to-date information about their child's disease and treatment options. The uncertainty about the trustworthiness of the information that parents find on the internet, is an often heard reason among parents for not using online information resources [30][31][32][33], while parents on the other hand want reliable information to manage their uncertainty, to make decision in their child's treatment and to stimulate the dialogue with the care providers of their child [30][31][32].…”

“…For the development of this intervention, an extensive needs assessment was conducted, consisting of a literature study and five focus group interviews with parents [34]. This needs assessment revealed that online peer support was (the most) frequently mentioned need of parents, and it is often used by parental caregivers for emotional needs [5,6,31]. However, the online interaction options of ePowered Parents were not often used.…”

Background Parents of children with a chronic kidney disease (CDK) experience high levels of stress in daily management of their child's disease. Although parents want continuously accessible support and information, online support programs are lacking. Therefore, e-Powered Parents (e-PP) was developed: an online program consisting of: 1) medical information, 2) an interactive part, and 3) four training modules (stress management, setting limits, communication and coping). Prior to a large scale evaluation, a feasibility study was conducted consisting of an effect study and process evaluation.

“…Health guidance denotes systematically developed recommendations on specific topics aimed at promoting health in particular settings or groups based on the best available evidence 7 . With ubiquitous Internet access through smartphones, it has become common in households with children to first seek information online when a health issue is encountered 8 . However, it may be difficult for parents and other guardians to review online health information and assess its validity 9,10 .…”

The aim of this study was to develop athletics health guidance (AHG) aimed at supporting coaches and parents involved in organized child athletics by providing practical advice and tools for the management of the most common health problems experienced in athletics by the 12‐ to 15‐year olds. The study used participatory action research (PAR) and an established health service guideline development procedure modified to fit AHG development in child athletics. A sequential process consisting of four steps with associated subgoals was employed. The collected data were structured according to the AHG development steps and analyzed using qualitative methods. The most common health concern identified was injuries related to growth and overuse. No randomized controlled studies investigating injury prevention programs or any existing concepts/guidelines in child athletics were found that could be used in the development of the AHG. A requirements document was instead defined in a nominal group process and used for the AHG development. The areas included in the final AHG were as follows: training youth athletes, growth and puberty, recovery, injury prevention, injuries and illnesses, mental illness, safe sport, and anti‐doping. The evidence regarding health issues in child athletics is limited, indicating that actions to support good health in the sport are currently based essentially on best practice. The long‐term aim of the AHG and associated website is to systematically create and introduce conditions that can bridge the "know‐do gap" and provide coaches and parents with easy‐to‐access and up‐to‐date knowledge in the field of child athlete health in athletics.
