Resumo
Objetivo: Levantar as evidências científicas sobre a prática do handoff na unidade de terapia intensiva quanto à segurança da comunicação entre os membros da equipe sobre o paciente hospitalizado.
Método: Revisão integrativa, nas bases Medline, PubMed, Cinahl e Scopus, com os descritores patient handoff, communication, patient safety, critical care, health communication e intensive care unit. Adotou-se como critérios: texto completo, português/inglês, últimos dez anos, nível de evidência acima de IV e alinhamento à questão de pesquisa. Quinze artigos foram submetidos a um instrumento estruturado e análise.
Resultados: Evidenciam-se informações ausentes, incompletas ou erradas no handoff, causadas pela falta de padronização e de preparo dessa atividade, gerando procedimentos atrasados, errados ou não realizados. O uso de instrumentos reduz a quantidade de informação omitida, conversas paralelas e erros, melhorando a satisfação da equipe.
Considerações finais: É preciso promover a comunicação segura no handoff, implementando práticas que garantam a continuidade da assistência.
