Pesquisa convergente-assistencial: estudo bibliométrico de dissertações e teses

Abstract

This bibliometric study was conducted in the theses database available through the Coordination for the Improvement of Higher Education Personnel (CAPES) portal, to identify the contribution of Convergent-Care Research in the construction of nursing and health knowledge produced in Brazilian master's and doctoral programs. The sample was composed of 67 theses and six dissertations that used Convergent Care Research as the modality of research between 2000 and 2008. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics. The conclusion is that the development of this modality of research is prevalent in hospitals in the South of Brazil, especially conducted by the Federal University of Santa Catarina. The increased use of this method and expansion to other fields show the advancement and recognition of nursing as a science, as it developed its own research methodology that enables intervening in various scenarios in the health field.

La muestra consistió en 67 disertaciones y 6 tesis que utilizaron investigación convergente-asistencial, como un modo de investigación entre los años 2000 a 2008. Los datos fueron analizados mediante estadística descriptiva. Se concluye que el desarrollo de este tipo de investigación es frecuente en los hospitales en el sur de Brasil, especialmente en la Universidad Federal de Santa Catarina. El aumento del uso de la modalidad y la expansión hacia otras áreas de conocimiento, muestran el avance reconocimiento de la enfermería como una ciencia mediante el desarrollo de una metodología de investigación propia, que permite intervenciones en los diversos escenarios de salud.

From these reviews, 19 articles were selected that portrayed the growing use of this methodology in the Brazilian nursing scientific production.…”

Palliative care and nursing in dissertations and theses in Portugal: a bibliometric study

“…In nursing, these studies are used to identify the scientific production characteristics. This is a relevant technology because it highlights the patterns and trends of research in different areas and themes (22)(23) . The material for analysis was limited to master dissertations (MD) and PhD theses (DT), written by nurses and published in scientific repositories of various universities and polytechnic institutes in Portugal between 2000 and 2014.…”
